I am a commoner, but I will lead the empress to unify the world

At three o'clock in the afternoon, just as the sky was getting light, the captain, who had just turned eighteen years old, woke up from his bed.

Shen Changgong slept soundly.

I was very tense last night, killing people and dealing with the empress. I was really tired.

He was used to taking a comfortable hot bath after killing someone to remove the murderous aura from his body, soothe his nerves, and then have a good sleep.

The next day, I was a new person.

After getting up, as the "empress", she naturally had the help of palace maids to help her dress.

Shen Changgong teased the palace maids while putting on his clothes, making the two little girls' faces blush, and then he walked out laughing.

"What good news is this, Captain? You're laughing like a dog that's eaten shit."

The sound of Gongsun Wan'er's lips smeared with honey came from the front, adding a wonderful color to this beautiful and quiet afternoon.

"Huh? Why would a dog eat you?"

Shen Changgong was not upset by Gongsun Wan'er. On the contrary, he quite enjoyed the feeling of bickering with Gongsun Wan'er. Every time he saw Gongsun Wan'er being humiliated and seeing her expression as if she wanted to kill him but couldn't do anything about it, he felt very satisfied.

Bickering is just bickering, not the bickering you think it is.

Gongsun Wan'er gritted her teeth in anger and immediately retorted without thinking,

"If I'm shit, then you're a dog!"

"Hmm? You want me to eat you? What are you thinking about?"

Shen Changgong said as he walked.

"ah!!!"

Gongsun Wan'er was defeated again and gnashed her teeth in anger.

Shen Changgong laughed heartily.

Then, the two of them walked outside together.

"Why are you following me?"

Shen Changgong asked in confusion.

"Why can't I follow you? Are you going to do something shameful?"

"Of course. I'm going to tease decent women. Do you want to follow me?"

"Then I must follow you. If you dare to do anything to offend His Majesty, I will complain and let His Majesty punish you."

"Then Your Majesty is worthy of me?"

"What do you mean? How dare you slander His Majesty? I will punish you for the crime of disrespect."

Gongsun Wan'er snorted coldly,

"Her Majesty has never been behind your back with other men. Before she ascended the throne, she had rarely seen other men. After she ascended the throne, you were her first. Besides you, there are only eunuchs in the entire harem."

"Oh."

"His Majesty asked me to take you to take over the Shadow Guard."

"what?"

Shen Changgong stopped and turned to look at Gongsun Wan'er in confusion.

"What does Shadow Guard mean?"

Gongsun Wan'er looked around and was about to speak to Shen Changgong in a low voice when Shen Changgong said,

"A killer organization loyal to the monarch?"

"Yeah? You know again?"

Gongsun Wan'er was shocked.

"The main thing is that I'm not as stupid as you. Judging from your expression, combined with the name and my identity, I can guess roughly."

"You mean I'm stupid?"

"Hasn't I made it clear enough?"

"Shen Changgong, I will kill you sooner or later!"

Gongsun Wan'er continued to grit her teeth.

"Then we'll see."

"Hmph, let's go, we can talk while we walk."

The two got on the carriage, and Shen Changgong also wanted to see what the "Jinyiwei" of Dayan looked like.

Sitting in the carriage, Gongsun Wan'er rubbed her long legs and said,

"The Shadow Guard was established by the late emperor, and it has a history of more than ten years. At the time, the late emperor was a princess, and his chances of winning against other princes for the throne were very low, so he inevitably resorted to some special means to cause those princes to die in accidents.

The late emperor's brothers are all dead. Prince Rong and Prince Gong currently in the court are the sons of the late emperor's two uncles.

Because he had helped the previous emperor seize the throne, he was able to hold great power in the court.

The shadow guard also helped the late emperor eliminate dissidents and ministers who did not support her.

Do you understand now? "

"I understand, but the previous emperor's tactics cannot be used now. Your Majesty's foundation is unstable, and you don't have many people in the court. If you send shadow guards to massacre ministers, you will be deserted by everyone and attacked by everyone."

"You are indeed very smart."

"It's okay, better than you."

At this moment, shouts were heard outside the carriage.

"Is the Grand Commandant in there? Is the Grand Commandant in there?"

"Shut up!"

The carriage stopped, Shen Changgong opened the curtain and looked outside, only to see two young men in security uniforms shouting anxiously.

When the two saw Shen Changgong, their faces were filled with joy and they quickly said

"Captain, go and rescue Commander Zhang and Commander Zhou."

In the military system of Dayan, the leader of ten men was called the captain, the leader of a hundred men was called the head of a thousand men, and the leader of ten thousand men was called the general.

"Zhang Yide and Zhou Hu? What happened to them?"

"They have been reported to the Imperial Court and have been arrested. The Imperial Court is currently interrogating them and will soon sentence them. Please go and save them."

"What are you being accused of?"

"They went to a brothel and paid for sex, but the woman insisted she didn't pay, so they sued."

"understood."

Shen Changgong lowered the curtain and said,

"Go to the Supreme Court."

He vaguely felt that this matter was not that simple.

A captain of a thousand men, at least a regimental commander in later times, would be arrested for soliciting prostitution without paying?

Can you afford to lose this person?

If the other party is making a false accusation, then it is very likely that he is trying to hit the target from a distance and wants to get rid of Shen Changgong.

The security forces are responsible for catching lawbreakers. Now you, the security forces, have broken the law. Whether you punish them or not, you will lose the morale of the army because it is a false accusation.

How can we convince the people if we don't punish you? Are you the only one allowed to break the law, while the nobles are not allowed to?

"Humph……"

Gongsun Wan'er was about to speak when Shen Changgong interrupted her.

"Master Gongsun, I have a question for you."

"You're suddenly so polite. I'm a little uncomfortable with it. Please tone it down a bit. I still like your unruly side."

Gongsun Wan'er snorted coldly.

"You're such a jerk, I can't talk to you properly. Let me ask you something..."

Shen Changgong asked Gongsun Wan'er in a low voice, and the carriage moved forward quickly and soon arrived at the Supreme Court.

The two men got off the carriage and walked towards the Supreme Court with their guards.

The Supreme Court was equivalent to the Ministry of Justice in later generations, and the Supreme Court was also one of the Nine Ministers.

In the courtroom of the Supreme Court, there were three women on the left, two young and one older.

She was crying, and there were several men with bruised faces and noses standing next to her.

On the right are Zhang Yide and Zhou Hu. Zhou Hu is crossing his arms with a defiant look on his face, while Zhang Yide is cursing loudly.

"Silence! Silence!"

The thin and goateed judge slammed the table.

Then he saw Shen Changgong and Gongsun Wan'er coming, and he quickly stood up and saluted,

"Your humble servant greets the Grand Commandant and the Grand Steward. I wonder what brings you two here?"

Shen Changgong said,

"I heard that my people were arrested by the Supreme Court, so I came to see what's going on. Lord Supreme Court, you don't have to give me face. Just try them and sentence them."
