After the rebirth, the empress took the tragic script of Meiqiang

Chapter 89 Sharp Blade

Lu Yanchen looked at the gold medal in Ye Qinghuai's hand and said: "There is a pawnshop in Jinxiufang called Huisheng Pawn. The shopkeeper there is named Qiao. Your Majesty can go to him with this gold medal and leave a note. The note

Write down the person or thing your Majesty wants to check, and agree on a time on the note. The shopkeeper will accept the note. Your Majesty will go to Huisheng Pawn at the appointed time, and you will get a relevant reward."

Ye Qinghuai looked at the gold medal in his hand with some disbelief, and then looked at Lu Yanchen.

"They are the Eagle Guards today."

For a time, countless questions emerged in Ye Qinghuai's mind.

She chose to ask the simplest question first: "How many are there?"

Lu Yanchen shook his head and said: "I don't know the specific number of people. But the Eagle Guards should have thirty teams. Each team has about three to ten people, about one or two hundred people."

"Then where are they usually?"

"They are everywhere, living in Shengjing like ordinary people."

"So they are doing some intelligence-gathering work? Have you asked them for information?"

Lu Yanchen pondered for a moment and said: "That's not all. The Eagle Guards have a unique training and inheritance mechanism. Each Eagle Guard is a genius selected from a hundred. Some of them are agile, some have extraordinary minds, and some have great minds.

Special skills. In addition to collecting intelligence, you can also do some assassination or escort work. Based on my experience, they only failed once, that time with Song Zhe."

Ye Qinghuai's face was not only surprised, she thought of many things.

"They didn't miss anything about Song Zhe. I asked Gu Shihai yesterday to confirm that Song Zhe is dead. It's normal that they couldn't find him." Ye Qinghuai narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Lu Yanchen, and asked, "Mr.

Did you ask them to protect Li Wenqing’s family?”

Lu Yanchen nodded and said, "Yes."

Ye Qinghuai looked at the gold medal in his hand for a long time, and then asked him: "Did Sir, did you ask them to go to the Tianlao to rescue Wang Lisong?"

Lu Yanchen was startled for a moment, his expression darkened, he shook his head and said: "I have never used the Eagle Guard to handle my own affairs. At that time in Tianlao, I took two villagers with me. But later to protect the king

I entrusted Yingwei to carry out the wine offering to Leizhou."

Ye Qinghuai nodded thoughtfully.

"Sir, he always makes a distinction between public and private matters, but I am too worried."

When Lu Yanchen heard Ye Qinghuai's words, his eyebrows softened and he said, "I have never told the truth to Your Majesty. Your Majesty is right to be suspicious."

Ye Qinghuai frowned. Lu Yanchen's words touched on what she couldn't understand the most.

"According to what you said, this Eagle Guard should belong to the royal family. It is an intelligence network that the late emperor has been operating in the capital for many years. But why did Huang Kao leave it to you?"

Such an invincible guard should have been the sharpest knife in the emperor's hand and the final trump card.

Why did it fall into Lu Yanchen's hands?

Ye Qinghuai couldn't understand.

When Emperor Shunping handed this gold medal to Lu Yanchen, he was just a young boy who had just passed the Jinshi examination. He had neither proud achievements nor a solid family background. If it were not for the turmoil in the government and the public due to the Renshen Palace incident,

And Ye Qinghuai happened to need an imperial master. He couldn't even enter the Taiqing Pavilion, so he could only be an unpopular chief in the Ministry of War for the rest of his life.

What did Emperor Shunping see in him that would give him something as important as the Eagle Guard?

This incident was so unbelievable that Ye Qinghuai began to wonder if Lu Yanchen was her father's illegitimate son.

Lu Yanchen's expression deepened, and he said: "When the late emperor handed this gold medal to me, I also asked this question. I asked the late emperor, why didn't you give it to your majesty?"

He raised his eyes, looked at Ye Qinghuai and continued: "The late emperor said that this guard is a sharp blade. And a real sharp blade can not only stab the enemy, but also hurt yourself. He asked me to use it when I feel it is appropriate.

Then I gave it to Your Majesty. I thought that maybe it was because Your Majesty was too young when he was in charge of the throne, and the late emperor was worried that Your Majesty would hurt himself, so he did not give it directly to Your Majesty. And the late Emperor asked me to be His Majesty's husband, so maybe it was because the late Emperor asked me to be His Majesty's husband.

This is probably the intention."

Ye Qinghuai looked at the gold medal in his hand and suddenly felt how heavy it was.

It was said both inside and outside the court that before the death of the late emperor, he appointed the first assistant Chen Yuansi and the second assistant Gu Shihai to Ye Qinghuai as assistant ministers, which was equivalent to entrusting them to him. But until today, Ye Qinghuai felt that Emperor Shunping clearly

It was Tuogu who gave it to Lu Yanchen.

If this unmissable Eagle Guard is in the hands of powerful ministers, it can spy on them, eliminate political opponents, control the situation, and become their helper in making changes in the situation.

Emperor Shunping actually handed something like this into Lu Yanchen's hands. What kind of trust is this?

He believed that Lu Yanchen would never use it to do evil. He believed that such a sharp blade in Lu Yanchen's hands would never become a weapon to help evildoers.

He actually believed in Lu Yanchen's character so much.

Ye Qinghuai felt incredible.

What's even more incredible is that he actually believed it right.

Looking at herself, Ye Qinghuai felt that if it were her, she would definitely use the Eagle Guard to rob Wang Lisong from the prison.

How did Lu Yanchen hold back?

She didn't think Lu Yanchen was right to do what he did, she just found it incredible.

According to Lu Yanchen's rigid temperament, if Ye Qinghuai hadn't given him an explicit order to find a way to save Wang Lisong's life, I'm afraid he wouldn't have even let the Eagle Guards protect Wang Lisong to Leizhou.

If Wang Lisong dies, many things will become unproven.

Ye Qinghuai thought this was foolish loyalty and was not advisable.

But this kind of foolish loyalty is Lu Yanchen's code of conduct.

She thought about it and asked Lu Yanchen, "Sir, do you think now is the right time?"

Lu Yanchen hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes and no."

"Why did you say this, sir?"

"Your Majesty needs this Eagle Guard the most now, so it is the right time. However, just because Your Majesty needs it so much, it is not the right time."

What he said was hard to pronounce, but Ye Qinghuai understood what he meant.

She smiled and said: "Sir, you are worried that I will hurt myself in my eagerness for quick success."

Lu Yanchen said nothing, acquiescing to her guess.

"Sir, in what kind of person's hands can such a sharp blade become a sharp weapon for killing enemies instead of a dangerous thing that hurts others and themselves?"

Lu Yanchen raised his head and looked directly at Ye Qinghuai, his eyes as deep as night, but shining with bright starlight.

"The master who taught me the art of swordsmanship once told me that when there is someone or something you want to protect in your heart, the sword in your hand can be invincible. A real sharp weapon is not only for killing, but also for protecting. When your Majesty's heart is filled with every killing,

When your intention is to protect, you can hold all the sharp blades in this world."
