Chapter 848 The wind is rising and the clouds are about to move
Qingguo, Shangjing City...
The General Secretary of the Shangjing Security Camp, Yun Canglan, was in a quiet small house in the General Secretary of the General Secretary of the State Administration.
It was already night, and Yun Canglan sat on a chair. The token of General Qingguo made by Black Iron was tightly held in his hand. He was wearing black armor, and his sword was placed on the black wooden table beside him.
His handsome face looked cold and extremely solemn, frowning, as if thinking about something.
In this quiet house, it is so quiet that it is afraid of people.
I don’t know how long it took before a gentle knock on the door sounded outside the door, and a voice whispered: “Sir, they are all here!”
Yun Canglan did not answer. He closed his eyes and showed a hesitation on his face, but soon, the hesitation gradually disappeared, and replaced by a decisive look.
He suddenly stood up and put the general token in his hand into his arms. He grabbed the sword on the table with a strong hand, and did not put it into his waist, but held it tightly in his hand, walked forward and opened the door, and walked out with great strides.
In the main hall of the General Administration, more than 20 guard battalion generals were sitting in the hall waiting. When Yun Canglan came out of the side door with a sword in his hand, the generals saw the solemn expression on the handsome face, they were all solemn and silent, and they all bowed and stood.
Yun Canglan sat down in the main seat, raised his hand, and signaled everyone to sit down.
All present were senior generals from the Shangjing Security Camp.
The Shangjing Guard Battalion was a fierce battle, and the military power was completely in the hands of Yun Canglan. The safety of Shangjing was also under the responsibility of 30,000 soldiers of the Shangjing Guard Battalion. There were eight guards under it, each guard had about 4,000 troops stationed in the capital.
The highest commander of the Eight Guards is the Guard Envoy, Yun Canglan's absolute confidant.
In addition to the Eight Guards of Shangjing, there are also more than a dozen guard flag schools, which are the military generals of Shangjing Guards of Shangjing, second only to the Guards.
Yun Canglan watched the generals sit down and said calmly: "You should all know the decree issued by the palace, right?"
A guard envoy clenched his fist and said, "Sir, the will will never be the will of the Lord. The emperor has been sick for more than ten days and has never been to court these days. Now when the dragon is unwell, how could he suddenly issue this will? This must be the deception of the Later Party."
"Not bad." Another guard envoy said: "My Lord has been in charge of the security camp in the past five years. My Shangjing Guard Battalion has also become the most elite unit in Daqing. And during his tenure, he is loyal to the emperor, strict with himself and conscientiously. How could the emperor transfer you to the Ministry of Rites at this time? He also needs to hand over the Shangjing Guard Battalion, this... this is really ridiculous!"
"The Later Party has never dared to act rashly because the adults are going to the capital." Another guard envoy said: "If the adults hand over the military power, the Later Party will be confused and let the people of the Later Party take over, the consequences will be unimaginable."
The generals were talking and the crowd was infuriated.
Yun Canglan looked calm and said slowly: "The emperor's will has been issued, can I still resist the will?"
The generals looked at each other and fell into despair for a moment.
If you fail to obey the order, no matter where you are in, it will be a death sentence.
A long time later, a slightly older guard sent a little slowly, "Sir, it's better to postpone the right to hand over the throne and send someone to report to the throne immediately. As long as the throne comes forward, there may be another turning point!"
"Yes, adults can delay for a few days on the grounds of physical discomfort."
When Yun Canglan heard the word "Holy General", a gloomy look flashed through his eyes. Lin Chengfei, the front line, had already sent someone to send a secret letter. Just in case, ordinary people would be confused when they read the content of the letter, but Yun Canglan clearly understood the meaning of the secret letter.
If there is no miracle, Shang Zhongli's soul has returned to the Nine Heavens at this time.
My strongest backer has collapsed, and what I have to bear next is the instructions from Shang Zhongli to the front line on the eve of leaving Beijing.
Without Shang Zhongli, he would have to take on all the responsibilities alone.
There is no doubt that the latter party is ready to take action.
Yun Canglan is a top-notch talent among the younger generation of Qing Kingdom. At this time, the Hou Party took action. He keenly felt that Qinghou might have known that Shang Zhongli had an accident, otherwise he would never dare to move his position as the General Commander of the Shangjing Security Battalion.
Shang Zhongli was not dead, and the Later Party did not dare to move. Only when Shang Zhongli was gone could the Later Party be sure to overthrow itself.
He knew that this decree was most likely to be the meaning of the Queen, but what puzzled him was that although the emperor was confused, he had always been very clear in the position of the General System of the Security Camp.
Before this, the Party of the Central and Later Dynasties wanted to move itself from the position of General Administration for the countless times, but even without Shang Zhongli's appearance, the emperor firmly rejected all impeachments.
The emperor knew Yun Canglan's loyalty and knew that as long as Yun Canglan held military power, the party would not be too arrogant. Therefore, Emperor Qing might have compromised against Qing Hou in many things, but in this matter, he was extraordinary persistence.
But this time, he was ill and suddenly issued this decree. Did Emperor Qing also know that something happened to Shang Zhongli, so he finally compromised with Qinghou in this matter?
...
"By ill, procrastinate?" Yun Canglan smiled faintly, "Will this move work for the party in the future? Even if they are sick, they will send people to the mansion to directly confiscate the military talismans, and they will immediately appoint a new general commander."
"Sir, why not go to the Prime Minister's Mansion overnight and the Prince Xihe Mansion, and ask them to enter the palace to persuade the emperor to take back his life?" Another general said.
The court of Qing State is full of Hou Party. Now the old ministers of Hou Party are not part of the Hou Party. Apart from Shang Zhongli, there are only the old prime minister and Prince Xihe who have no real power.
The generals looked at each other, and their expressions remained solemn.
Although the old prime minister and Prince Xihe are highly respected, these two people now do not have much power. With their influence, they are far from enough to change the influence of Qinghou on the emperor.
The emperor now not only loves Qinghou, but more importantly, he is afraid. In many things, the emperor does not even have the courage to fight with Qinghou. It has surprised many people that he can persist in this position in the general system.
Now that the emperor has issued an order, whether it is voluntary or insulting the queen, it is all determined. Even if the old prime minister and Prince Xihe can enter the palace, it will not be possible for the emperor to change his mind.
"After the dragon body of the saint was unwell, an order was reported in the palace, and the government will be governed by the government for the time being." Yun Canglan said calmly: "And there was an order in the palace that the saint wanted to rest and recuperate the dragon body. During the recovery, no one would see him. I am afraid that the old prime minister and the prince of Xihe would not even see the emperor!"
"Damn the back party!" The general said angrily: "Of course this is what she did!"
"Sir, we can't sit still and wait for death. If we really hand over the military power, we're afraid that this security battalion will become the army of the Hou Party!"
Yun Canglan pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "In the past few years, thanks to your strong help, the security camp has been enforced and will protect the capital as imperfect." A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth and said slowly: "It's not a matter of a day or two when the rear party peeps at the security camp. To put it bluntly, if the security camp is not controlled by them for a day, they will be uneasy for a day, like a thorn in their throats and unable to sleep or eat!"
All the generals were solemn.
"Canglan believes that this will is indeed not the saint's intention." Yun Canglan said calmly: "I received the will today. I want to enter the palace to meet the saint. I have to hand over the military talisman in my hand to the saint, but I am blocked from outside the palace gate and cannot enter. Canglan cannot even see the saint's attitude. How can I believe that this will is the saint's intention?"
"Canglan is loyal to the priest. If he had not heard the priest say it himself, he would never be ordered, and it would be even more impossible to hand over the military power in his hand for no reason." Yun Canglan's handsome face showed a cold look: "Canglan wants to meet the priest in person!"
When the generals heard that Yun Canglan refused to obey the order, they were shocked at first, and then they showed excitement.
"Sir, we are willing to follow you!"
"But now that the palace gate is closed, the lord can't enter even if he meets the emperor?"
Yun Canglan suddenly stood up and said coldly: "The attacking door cannot be opened. Can I, Yun Canglan, open it from outside?"
When the generals heard this, they instantly understood what Yun Canglan meant, that they were going to break into the door. This was not an ordinary thing, and for a moment, everyone became nervous.
Yun Canglan put one hand into his arms, slowly took out a black iron token from it, and raised his hand to light the token in front of the generals.
The token is clearly engraved with the four words "General Order". It is the general token that Shang Zhongli secretly handed over to Yun Canglan before leaving.
"This is...this is the order of the general!" a general said in dismay.
The other generals did not dare to hesitate, and immediately rode from the chairs. There was a loud noise and they were divided into two rows. They all knelt in front of Yun Canglan on one knee, and they all looked surprised.
The general's token was held by Shang Zhongli. Now that it appears in Yun Canglan, it means that Shang Zhongli granted Yun Canglan the highest military power. Not to mention the security camp, even the three major legions of the Qing Kingdom. Yun Canglan held the general's token, which was qualified to mobilize.
"The Hou Party is in chaos. Now, the general is ordered to clear the Hou Party and protect the emperor." Yun Canglan said solemnly: "Can the generals follow me and kill the thief for the country?"
The generals said without hesitation: "I wish to follow the Lord!"
"After receiving the order, the generals immediately dispatched troops. The front three guards were responsible for blocking the city gates. No one was allowed to enter or exit. Those who violated the city were killed without mercy." Yun Canglan looked cold: "The left guard and the right guard immediately captured officials of the middle and rear party in the capital, but if they resisted, they would be killed without mercy. After the rear three guards gathered, they immediately surrounded the palace. The left guard and the right guard divided the troops to surround the three gates. The central guards gathered at the north gate. The north gate was the weakest. They gathered heavy troops to break into the palace from the north gate. After entering the palace, they took Fengtian Palace directly to protect the emperor and seize the queen... Remember, don't kill her!"
"The last general will obey the order!" the generals said in unison.
"In this battle, we must defeat the party in one place." Yun Canglan expressed his expression: "The responsibility for the mutiny will be borne by the general afterwards, and it has nothing to do with you."
"We are willing to advance and retreat with the adults."
"No need to say more." Yun Canglan said calmly: "This battle is related to the fate of our country in Daqing. After this battle, your achievements will be remembered by future generations. I hope you will work with Canglan to do your best!"
"yes!"
"Sir, the Purple Guard in the Beijing..." A general gave a brief reminder.
The Purple Uniform Guard of Qing Kingdom has been divided into two factions, one is naturally the power in Yun Canglan's hands, and the other is the power of the Later Party.
"You go and do it. I have made arrangements for the Purple Guard." Yun Canglan bowed: "Rocket is the number, and you will take action tonight. Please give everything to everyone!"
