Outside the study room, Zhao Laoqi looked anxious and asked Fu Luanxiang: "I dare to ask Secretary Fu, why the emperor has not summoned him yet? The subordinates really have important things to report, so please be kind."

Fu Luanxiang's chest was sore and bitter, and he ignored Zhao Laoqi's words. The emperor actually brought two vixen into the inner room. An hour passed, and there was no need to guess what they were doing inside.

After Zhao Laoqi asked repeatedly, Fu Luanxiang replied angrily: "The emperor is inside, if you have the courage, go in."

Zhao Laoqi's expression changed slightly, and he really didn't have the courage.

Recalling what happened recently, Zhao Laoqi dispelled the idea of ​​urging him again. Recently, the emperor kept mixing sand in the intelligence bureau. The small intelligence bureau actually established five departments. His power and prestige were greatly weakened, especially the intelligence department that manages foreign countries and has the tendency to separate them. These made him feel up and down. He lay on the bed at night to summarize gains and losses. Did he accidentally offend someone? They were slandering the emperor.

Seeing Zhao Laoqi staying in place, Fu Luanxiang snorted, turned around and entered the study room, and turned around and added: "You are waiting outside. The emperor will summon you when he has time."

Zhao Laoqi quickly bowed and thanked, "Thank you Secretary Fu."

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, it's time for us to say goodbye!" Luo Meiwei walked out of bed naked, picked up the clothes one by one, remembering the incongregation of the clothes, and walked to the closet to put on the original clothes.

After appreciating Luo Meiwei's plump body, Li Yunzhong looked at the sleeping Zheng Yan'er, covered her with pain, and whispered: "You go back first, I will send Yan'er back to the inn in person tomorrow."

Luo Meiwei became envious and dressed up, and immediately said coquettishly: "The emperor is partial, and I want to spend the night with the emperor."

Li Yunzhong got up carefully, hugged Luo Meiwei and smiled, "What if I take you around Nanjing tomorrow, how about it as compensation?"

Luo Meiwei said excitedly: "With the emperor's company, you can do anything."

After Li Yunzhong finished dressing, the two of them looked at Zheng Yan'er and went outside together.

Luo Meiwei caught a glimpse of Fu Luanxiang's hostile look, dodged her eyes and said to Li Yunzhong: "I will leave!"

Outside the study, Zhao Laoqi noticed Luo Meiwei, who was still in her face, and her heart moved slightly, secretly remembering her appearance and pleasing to this future imperial concubine.

After reading the information sent by Zhao Laoqi, Li Yunzhong was really shocked. The Tianjing Incident finally broke out.

"It is not easy for you to find out things so carefully in one month. I plan to make a decision."

Zhao Laoqi flattered and said: "These are all the leaders of the emperor and the weak ministers dare not take credit."

Li Yunzhong put down the information in his hand and asked Zhao Laoqi: "The above said that Yang Xiuqing's remaining troops entered Guizhou by tens of thousands of people. What's going on? Didn't Hong Xiuquan send someone to recruit him?"

Zhao Laoqi secretly thanked that he had established a connection with Ji Wenyuan and reported: "This is Ji Wenyuan's idea. He wanted to present Guizhou to the emperor, but he was worried that there were those in the army who had hope for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, so he did not act publicly."

Li Yunzhong nodded and praised: "Ji Wenyuan's concerns are correct. The information only says that Wei Changhui started a massacre in Yucheng, but Hong Xiu is very scheming, and Wei Changhui is unpopular and is afraid that he has already been awarded the title now."

Zhao Laoqi disagreed and praised him: "The emperor is wise, Wei Changhui is in trouble with his advance and retreat, and he is in a dilemma."

Li Yunzhong suddenly saw through Zhao Laoqi's thoughts, shook his head slightly, and did not argue with him. He asked, "I ordered you to investigate the affairs of the God Church in the army. How are you doing?"

In the past, Zhao Laoqi had an idea of ​​purging the Emperor's worship of God. In his mind, there was really a God. He met the emperor in the most difficult time, and thus gained glory and wealth. He was also named the first-class baron and glorious ancestor. However, after receiving the news of the Tianjing Incident, the God in his mind was shattered. For the sake of power, the Heavenly King killed the Heavenly Father and the Heavenly Father killed the Heavenly Brother, which made him laugh at his persistence.

"Your Majesty, the First Army, Second Army, Eighth Army, and Ninth Army all have activities to worship the God Church. Chen Chengying, Lin Shaozhang, Ling Shiba and others often gather to discuss the affairs of worship the God Church."

Li Yunzhong thought silently. The first army was his starting force. In order to gather people's hearts, he kept promoting the idea of ​​worshiping God, but he did not expect that he would leave any sequelae. If Hong Xiu was completely whimsical and interfered in the internal affairs of the Han Dynasty, would his rejection affect the morale of the army?

Zhao Laoqi added: "The Eighth Army and the Ninth Army worship the God Church are the most blatant. The customs brought from Sichuan remain unchanged, and they often pray by Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing's names."

Li Yunzhong thought: "You said, if I ordered the ban on worshiping God's religion, who would be in trouble?"

Zhao Laoqi hesitated, and could not answer casually. He would offend people no matter how he said it, and he hesitated: "This... the emperor thought twice. Now the time has not come. This is why the news of the Northern Expedition has been spread frequently. If the order prohibition of worshiping the God Cult at this time will damage the emperor's prestige. If it turns into a cult like the White Lotus Cult, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Li Yunzhong stood up, took out a Bible from the bookshelf, and smiled and said, "The person who tied the bell must be untied. It is indeed not advisable to do it at this time. However, letting those who believe in God know the true God is also a merit. I ordered the Ministry of Works to publish the Bible in the army. You must closely monitor the movements of the army. If there are any plans, report it quickly. If the leader is below the regiment, the person will be dealt with as appropriate."

Zhao Laoqi hurriedly accepted the order, and his heart was even more bitter. Wang Lei, the leader of the Military Investigation Bureau, did not listen to his greetings at all. He would report to the emperor every time. He could only convey the emperor's orders to Wang Lei.

Li Yunzhong picked up the information about the Tianjing Incident again and read it, and said with a smile: "Shi Dakai escaped from Tianjing alone. It's a pity that the Yiwang Mansion may have been slaughtered. Shi Dakai is two years younger than me, and his family is destroyed and his family is destroyed... You send someone to contact Shi Dakai and pay more attention to his movements. With my prediction, Hong Xiuquan may not be able to tolerate him. It is a matter of time before he leaves. Whether he goes north to Hanzhong or south to Yunnan, it will be beneficial to our great Han."

Zhao Laoqi was ordered to answer: "Our army has the most spies in the Yiwang Hall. Zhu Yidian, a member of the Tiandihui Society, has already been in charge of the military supervisor and can participate in the military meeting held by Shi Da. Now that the people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom are dissatisfied, the empress will definitely recruit them."

Li Yunzhong nodded with satisfaction and put down the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Zhao Laoqi took out a memorial from his cuff and presented it with both hands: "The emperor ordered me to pay attention to Japan's affairs, and me has collected a lot of information."

"I'm a little tired, just talk."

Zhao Laoqi handed the memorial to Fu Luanxiang and repeated it: "According to Weichen's inquiry, Britain and the United States did have collusion with the anti-shog faction. The Choshu vassal had already had differences with the Tokugawa shogunate. The Choshu vassal and the Satsuma vassal Daming were looking for allies everywhere."

Li Yunzhong shook his head and said sarcastically: "The Tokugawa shogunate raises tigers as a disaster. Even though he knew that the movement of 'Respecting Kings and Foreigners' was supported by the Changshu vassal and Satsuma vassal, he still allowed them to grow and grow. It was a dream to ask them to restrain foreigners. I'm afraid that it won't take long before this group of daimyos will rebel publicly."

Zhao Laoqi carefully said: "I found that Tokugawa Tokugawa Tokugawa Kyoki and the French colluded with him and seemed to have an intention to borrow money from France and implement the Westernization Affairs."

Li Yunzhong thought for a moment and ordered: "The Han Dynasty has no energy to take care of Japan yet. You just need to expand China's influence in the Japanese shogunate and wait for the Northern Expedition to end."

Zhao Laoqi secretly wrote down and replied: "There are many people in the Anti-State who are hostile to the Han Dynasty. They are arrogant and think that Japan's way out is to defeat China. Should we deal with these people?"

Thinking of these militants, Li Yunzhong sarcastically said: "Does these people be killed? Should they let them restrain the shogunate and fight for both sides? The longer the time is, the more beneficial it will be. The Japanese bully the weak and fear the strong. Only by beating them hard can they become honest. The main task of the Intelligence Bureau in Japan is to deceive the Japanese people against foreigners, which is in line with the trend of respecting the king and expelling the barbarians."

Zhao Laoqi said depressedly: "I understand that now selling opium in Japan is far less profitable than before. Japanese upper-class figures have begun to ban opium, especially the shogunate elders have implemented reforms and often cracked down on opium traders. Not only do they charge heavy taxes, but they also limit sales. If this continues, the opium business may not be maintained."

Do Japanese people really don’t like to suck opium? Li Yunzhong asked: “How much remaining opium is left in our country?”

Zhao Laoqi thought for a while and said, "The main thing in our country is to confiscate the storage of Shanghai and Guangzhou foreign companies. There are more than 2,000 boxes, all of which are placed in a warehouse in the Shanghai Police Station. The profits of foreign people's trafficking in opium have dropped sharply. Many foreign companies should do legitimate business, and there has been basically no opium circulation in the past few months."

Li Yunzhong laughed and said in a cunning tone: "Opium can both anesthesia and relieve pain. Your Intelligence Bureau wants to sell opium in a different way. For example, opening a hospital, anesthetics, and painkillers are replaced by opium. It can be used to suck patients, and the packaging can be changed and a more positive name."

Zhao Laoqi said: "I remember it."

Li Yunzhong stretched and yawned: "It's okay, you go back."

Zhao Laoqi bowed and said, "Goodbye to me."

...

"Your Majesty, hurry up! I'm wearing all my clothes." Zheng Yan'er couldn't wait to shake Li Yunzhong's arm when she saw Li Yunzhong's still lying on the bed.

Li Yunzhong surrendered and complained: "My aunt, you chattered all night yesterday, why are you still so energetic in the morning?"
