That little, somewhat discordant episode with Lan Ruo.

Although Li Changsheng felt a little sorry.

But I didn’t take it too seriously.

After all, the current imperial palace is like a dark forest, full of dangers.

If you are not careful, you will die without a burial place.

He didn't want to waste too much energy on these meaningless love affairs between men and women.

The most urgent task is to improve your own strength, which is the real way forward!

Otherwise, you will become a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.

Can you survive?

Do you live with dignity?

You have to consider other people's moods.

And he, Li Changsheng, vowed to be the master of his own destiny!

Now the practice of "The Secret of Eternal Life and Happiness" has entered a small bottleneck period.

Side effects have also become apparent.

It is not advisable to practice again within a short period of time.

So, Li Changsheng set his sights on refining the elixir.

This reminded him of Mu Zhong's alchemy furnace.

To be on the safe side, he did not go out in person again.

Instead, he found Liu An.

Ask the other party for help and use his identity as the chief eunuch of Ganquan Palace.

The furnace tripod was transported to Beiyuan's residence.

I plan to refine a few mind-concentrating pills in case of emergency.

He also used the other party's relationship with the Internal Affairs Bureau to find some collections about witchcraft in southern Xinjiang.

In the following days, in addition to reporting to the Queen Mother as usual.

He stayed in Beiyuan and studied the collections of witchcraft from southern Xinjiang.

Although most of the content is just a brief and approximate record.

But Li Changsheng still benefited a lot from it.

It gave him a deeper understanding of the world beneath his feet.

It seems that this Kyushu continent still has many unknown secrets that I need to explore and decipher!

Just when Li Changsheng was bored and flipping through the classics.

A completely black bird landed steadily on the branch in front of his window.

This bird is called night dove, a type of carrier pigeon.

Unlike regular carrier pigeons, this bird is nocturnal and does not hide during the day.

Its eyesight is excellent and it can see in the dark.

In addition, its jet-black feathers blend perfectly with the night and serve as a natural camouflage color.

Li Changsheng took the night pigeon casually and found a signal raft on its leg ring.

It’s a message from Qingying.

The above content is concise and to the point, only five words.

Come to Changle Palace quickly!

After receiving the news, Li Changsheng did not dare to be negligent.

Rushed over immediately.

When he arrived at Changle Palace, Empress Ying Yue was furious.

The table in front of him was kicked over.

The memorials above were scattered all over the floor.

Qingying glanced at Li Changsheng, then came before Empress Yingyue and bowed, saying:

"Your Majesty, Li Changsheng is here!"

Ying Yue suppressed the anger in her heart and turned her gaze to Li Changsheng.

"Li Changsheng, you bastard, you came at the perfect time."

"Pretend to be me now, go to Ganquan Palace, and have my good graces upon our Empress!"

"When the time comes, I'll see if that Xiao Manzi still has any reason to meddle in my private affairs."

When Li Changsheng heard this, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

Did happiness come so suddenly?

These days, when he had nothing to do, he would imagine how to conquer the Queen.

I never expected that just as I was feeling sleepy, His Majesty would come and bring me a pillow.

However, he was so furious when he saw Empress Ying Yue.

He went to Wushan with Queen Xiao Yufei to make love.

It seems a bit inappropriate!

He hesitated for a moment, then asked cautiously:

"Your Majesty, have you encountered any troubles?"

"Although I may be dull, I possess a heart of loyalty and courage. I would rather die than regret in order to help Your Majesty resolve his worries and difficulties!"

Ying Yue was shocked as if she had eaten a firecracker and immediately retorted.

"You, a dog man, are you worthy enough to share my worries about military and national affairs?"

Li Changsheng: "..."

This empress is a bit green!

I was kind enough to help you solve your problem, but you insulted me.

It’s simply unreasonable!

"Your Majesty is absolutely right. I was rude, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"

Seeing that Li Changsheng's attitude of admitting his mistake was quite sincere, Ying Yue's anger subsided a little.

"The memorials are all lying on the ground. If you really want to know, pick them up and read them yourself!"

Li Changsheng was not in a hurry to pick up the memorial on the ground.

Instead, he subconsciously asked Qingying who was standing beside him out of the corner of his eye.

Jian Qingying did not raise any objections.

He then picked up the memorials at his feet and examined them carefully.

These memorials can be roughly divided into two aspects.

First, Your Majesty should stop neglecting the Queen and put the foundation of the country first.

He also talked a lot of moral kidnapping such as "There are three unfilial acts, and the worst is to have no descendants" and so on.

Secondly, the Holy Maiden of the Tiandao League organized an uprising of tens of thousands of people in Yannan County, and the smoke of war swept across the entire Yannan.

Moreover, most of the cities surrendered at the sight of the enemy.

General Xiao Tiangui took the opportunity to recommend his second son Xiao Yunyong as the governor of Yannan County to quell the rebellion.

……

See the Holy Maiden of the Tiandao League.

The mysterious woman he met at the Xiao family that day immediately appeared in Li Changsheng's mind.

I originally thought that they were just killing a few corrupt officials and bullies to enforce justice.

I never expected it to be so big.

He directly led tens of thousands of people, swept through the states and counties, and caused smoke of war everywhere!

After calming himself down, Li Changsheng pulled his thoughts away from the Holy Maiden of the Tiandao League.

He began to carefully analyze the contents of the memorial and the current situation.

Regarding the first thing, it seems that the empress is planning to compromise.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have called me over so late at night.

Moreover, this is consistent with one's own fundamental interests.

Naturally there is nothing to talk about.

The most important thing right now is the second thing.

Based on the information in the memorial, Li Changsheng made a rough inference.

Now, Empress Ying Yue faces two difficult choices.

If Xiao Yunyong was not sent to quell the rebellion, there would be no one available in the court.

The entire Yannan County will be swept by the rebels of the Tiandao League.

Maybe it will also affect Yanbei, Hedong, Boling and other county towns.

By then, one-third of the territory of the entire Dawu Dynasty will be completely out of control and no longer owned by the imperial court.

Fires were blazing everywhere, and smoke filled the ground.

But if you agree to Xiao Tiangui's petition.

Then the entire Yannan County was able to quell the rebellion of the Tiandao League.

But by then, the entire Yannan County would most likely fall into the hands of the Xiao family.

The Xiao family was already too powerful to be eliminated.

It posed a great threat to the empress's position.

If we allow them to gain a foothold in the local area and have their own territory.

By then, this Dawu Dynasty.

Should I continue to use the surname Ying?

Or should I just change my surname to Xiao?

……

Ying Yue saw Li Changsheng, who looked thoughtful after reading the memorial, so she asked casually.

"You've finished reading it, you bastard, how are you going to help me share my worries?"

Li Changsheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, you can agree to half of what the general has proposed!"

Ying Yue asked with interest: "Oh, half agreed, how do you say that?"

Li Changsheng gathered his thoughts and said, "Your Majesty, you can appoint Xiao Yunyong as the General of Bandit Suppression and have him lead the army to quell the rebellion started by the Tiandao League in Yannan!"

"However, the position of Yannan County Governor can be used to send trusted ministers to control personnel and finances."

"This way, we can check and balance this bandit-suppressing general. This will prevent the Xiao family from becoming the sole dominant force in Yannan after the rebellion is quelled!"

After listening to Li Changsheng's story, Ying Yue's frown relaxed a little.

"Li Changsheng, if Xiao Yunyong quells the rebellion and takes control of the military power of all of Yannan, the county governor I sent there will be left without any soldiers to use. Wouldn't that mean he will be completely marginalized by the enemy?"

"In that case, it would be a blessing for him not to die and his clan be destroyed. How can he still serve as a check and balance for the Xiao family on my behalf?"

Li Changsheng pondered for a moment and then put forward two more suggestions.

"First, when the county magistrate takes office, give him a guard troop as a basic base for self-protection while he is in Yannan!"

"Secondly, we will set up a special department to plant as many undercover agents as possible in Xiao Yunyong's army and infiltrate it like a sieve!"

"In this way, both inside and outside will be in harmony. As long as our county governor is not a useless person, it will be enough to contain Xiao Yunyong and prevent the Xiao family from dominating Yannan!"

Ying Yue was overjoyed when he heard this and clapped his hands in praise, "That's great!"

"Li Changsheng, I'll leave the task of establishing the military intelligence department targeting the Xiao family to you. Let's call it the Military Intelligence Bureau, and it will be under the direct jurisdiction of the Imperial City Division!"

"Qingying, you are responsible for assisting Li Changsheng and setting up this Military Intelligence Bureau as quickly as possible!"

Li Changsheng never expected that he was just making a suggestion.

This new department was formed in a confused manner.

That is, the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Also, listen to the name and responsibilities of this Military Intelligence Bureau.

Why does it have a bit of the flavor of the Military Control Commission?
