False Eunuch: With Many Children, I'm as Happy as a Fish in Water

Lin'an.

As the Tang army led by Lin Chen was about to approach the city, riots broke out in the city.

Today, the Zhao family of the Southern Song Dynasty has lost its prestige, and his status as emperor is only in name only.

When a country is about to lose its power, there will always be monsters who will take advantage of the situation and rob it. This is human nature.

These low-level lazy gangsters who used to live in Lin'an took to the streets to plunder.

As for the high-profile households in Lin'an, most of the courtyard doors are tightly closed, and they don't care what is happening outside.

The Imperial City Department, which maintains law and order in the city, has long been empty of people. What's more, they directly joined the looting team and started buying for zero yuan.

"Shen Qianhu!"

In a house in Lin'an City, dozens of figures gathered together, carrying embroidered spring knives and hand crossbows on their waists.

Shen Lian quite solemnly put on the Feiyu suit that represented Qianhu's identity.

You must know that he was sent to the secret realm by Lin Chen and has always been a secret agent. Now he can finally wear the uniform of Jin Yiwei openly.

"Are you all ready?" Shen Lian looked at the men present and asked in a deep voice.

"Shen Qianhu, all the brothers are here!" Bai Qianhu responded respectfully.

Hearing this, Shen Lian nodded with satisfaction and waved to set off.

He was sent by Lin Chen to lurk in Lin'an a few days ago, in order to take over the Southern Song Dynasty Hubu government office when the city was broken.

You must know that the entire Southern Song Dynasty household registration address is stored in the internal treasury of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Just like before Liu Bang invaded Xianyang, other generals were looting gold, silver and jewelry. Only Xiao He and Zhang Liang sealed the treasury and kept the complete household registration information of the entire Qin Dynasty.

These documents are the top priority of an empire.

If Lin Chen wants to take over the Southern Song Dynasty, this information is essential.

The idle gangsters who were originally vandalizing the streets of Lin'an quickly avoided the sight of Shen Lian and other Jin Yiwei.

They are not fools, so they can naturally see that this group of people is not easy to deal with.

certainly.

There are also guys who don’t have eyesight.

Then he was shot into a hornet's nest by a hand crossbow!

Shen Lian looked coldly at the motionless body on the ground, then turned around and led the team away.

These little episodes in the process did not affect the efficiency of Jin Yiwei's mission.

Wow!

The door to the household department was violently pushed open.

After all, it was once an important place for the imperial court, one of the Six Ministries of the Southern Song Dynasty, and there were still a large number of officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs working at this time.

When these people saw Jin Yiwei breaking in, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Looking at the unkind attitude of the other party, many officials from the Household Department present were frightened, fearing that they would be beheaded by these gangsters.

"This is Shen Lian, a member of the Jinyi Guard Qianhu, who is here to protect the documents in the treasury in the name of King Tang. You can rest assured."

Shen Lian glanced at the bewildered officials present and said.

"Prince Tang?"

After these two words came out of Shen Lian's mouth, the expressions on the faces of the officials present became wonderful.

Of course, no one would be wise to say something like the false king's treason.

Seeing that Shen Lian and others were here to protect the Hubu treasury, everyone felt relieved and continued their work.

As for someone who wanted to leave, Shen Lian didn't stop him.

He just ordered his subordinates to check and let him leave if there was no entrapment.

Li Chenyan, the minister of household affairs, couldn't help but swallowed when he looked at the Jinyi guards guarding various places in the household department. He had known that he would not go out today.

Originally, he had heard from his colleagues that the Tang Dynasty's army was about to arrive in Lin'an.

Previously, the princes in the court discussed that they planned to let the Empress Dowager and the Emperor move the capital.

This sounds nice to say, but in reality it means running away.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

Even if the Southern Song Dynasty moved its capital, it would only be able to survive.

Even so, the voice of the main war faction has not stopped.

Among them, the civil servant Wen Tianxiang and the military general Zhang Shijie, led by the emperor, urged the emperor to move to Leizhou and look for opportunities again.

According to the original history.

After Xie Daoqing, the empress dowager, led Song Gongzong out of the city and surrendered to Mongolia, these two people plus Lu Xiufu and three others established a new emperor to continue to compete with Mongolia.

It was not until the Battle of Yashan that the Southern Song Dynasty was completely destroyed.

Because of this, Lin Chen detained Lu Xiufu just now.

Otherwise, if you put it back, you will be making yourself unhappy.

As for Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Shijie, Lin Chen naturally had arrangements.

That's too far.

Let’s talk about Li Chenyan.

"General, could I ask when the King of Tang will arrive in Lin'an?"

When Shen Lian heard this, he couldn't help but look at the person in front of him in surprise and became interested.

He saw that this person was interested in cooperating with him.

"Why do you ask this?"

Seeing that Shen Lian was willing to talk to him, Li Chenyan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly complimented: "I heard that King Tang's army marched south, and Qiu did not commit any crimes along the way. Now Lin'an is in chaos. I hope His Highness King Tang will come quickly. Calm down the chaos.”

Shen Lian was amused.

"This has nothing to do with you. Cooperate with this Qianhu to manage the internal treasury of this household, and your contribution is essential."

Li Chenyan was overjoyed when he heard this.

He came here to try and chat with him, in order to find out the Tang king's attitude towards them, the old ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty.

It seems that the King of Tang does not mind using old ministers from the Southern Song Dynasty.

This made Li Chenyan feel relieved.

Just at this time.

A Jin Yiwei hurriedly came to Shen Lian's side and muttered.

"What?"

Hearing this, Shen Lian frowned slightly.

According to what the other party said, there was a rebellion in the Southern Song Dynasty palace.

A group of Southern Song imperial guards, Su Wei, rebelled and were plundering the palace.

What I insist on saying about this matter has nothing to do with Shen Lian.

But allowing the rebels to loot the palace was not the best idea.

Li Chenyan, who was on the side, also heard the news and couldn't help but change his expression.

"General, we can't let the rebels cause trouble!"

When Shen Lian heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Li Chenyan.

"What does this have to do with you?"

When Li Chenyan saw this, he immediately prepared his words: "General, if something happens to the old emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty at the hands of the rebels, it will be very detrimental to the king of Tang!"

"Besides, if you, General, quell this chaos, it will be a great achievement."

When Shen Lian heard what Li Chenyan said, his heart moved slightly.

That's true.

If the Emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty died in the hands of the rebels, it would be difficult for even his own lord to explain.

But Shen Lian took a look at his available soldiers, and there were less than a hundred soldiers.

How do you have the time to put down a rebellion?

"If the general believes it, I can find a way!" Shen Lian looked at Li Chenyan with a twinkle in his eye.

When Li Chenyan was feeling uneasy, he saw Shen Lian asking: "Tell me and listen."

After hearing what Li Chenyan said, Shen Lian quickly made a decision.

"Chen Baihu, you lead your people to guard the household department. I'm going..."

At the same time, in the Imperial Palace of the Southern Song Dynasty.

The eunuchs and maids were in chaos.

The news of the rebellion of the Imperial Guards reached the ears of the Empress Dowager Xie Daoqing immediately.

At this time, the woman with the highest status in the Southern Song Dynasty was at a loss.

Today's court meeting, those ministers have stopped coming to see me.

Xie Daoqing knew what this meant.

But she didn't expect that even the Imperial Guards who protected the palace would rebel.

In front of these big-headed soldiers, the so-called majesty of the Queen Mother was in vain.
