The rebels chatted with Yu Hongyi for a while, and finally Yu Hongyi agreed to deliver some weapons to them within half a month, and they also agreed to help with other trivial matters.

After all, they came here a long time earlier, and they got along better with the local people. Some things are easier to do than Yu Hongyi.

One of them is to find the origin of the bird trainers who originally occupied the old city.The two brothers who were the leaders of those bird tamers had already died at the hands of the red-eyed monster and Shen Si respectively, but there should be a lot of fish that slipped through the net.Whether it's for the flower boy who was killed by them, or for the remaining giant birds, finding them is a matter of urgency.

After explaining this matter and sending off the rebels, Yu Hongyi and Shen Si made plans for the next few days.

The weapons handed over to the rebels can be replaced by the spare swords of the Eighth Brigade, but this is not a long-term solution.In the future, if they want to recruit troops, they will definitely need more weapons.

Money, as well as talents who can build weapons, must be held in the palm of your hand, the more the better.

After counting for several hours like this, a few plans were drawn up, and the sky gradually turned to dusk.

The soldiers finished their drills and had dinner, laughing outside.At this time, if Yu Hongyi is willing to go out and mingle with them, they will be very happy.Yu Hong didn't want to go out, although they felt regretful, they wouldn't come here to bother them.

As a result, just today, a soldier knocked on Yu Hongyi's door.

Yu Hongyi opened the door and saw that it was Qi Hong.

Ever since he narrowly escaped from death under the red-eyed giant bird last time, Qi Hong seemed to be much closer to Yu Hongyi.At this moment, he was standing at the door, laughing and wanted to invite Yu Hongyi out for a drink, but the area between his brows was not flat, obviously he had other things on his mind.

Yu Hongyi then led him into the house, "You don't need to drink. But if you have anything, you can speak directly."

Qi Hong glanced at Shen Si who was also standing on the side, hesitant to speak.

But Yu Hongyi didn't intend to let Shen Si avoid it at all.

After waiting for a while, Qi Hong had no choice but to admit it, and sighed, "Boss, there is one thing that has been on my mind since I saw those corpses in the old city, and I can't figure it out."

"Is it about the imperial court?" Yu Hongyi walked to the table and sat down.

"Yeah..." Qi Hong gritted his teeth, "Boss... To be honest, His Majesty is my uncle, and he hugged me when I was a child. I don't believe that he is the kind of person who would do such a thing. The prefect said he was the one who accepted It's the imperial decree, but is this really the truth?"

Yu Hongyi was silent for a moment, and took a look at Shensi.

They happen to be in the prefect's study now.After careful consideration, after searching the room for a while, he found a piece of paper.

Qi Hong took the document, opened it, and his face turned livid.This is the document that ordered the magistrate to execute those refugees, and the inscription is stamped with a jade seal, which is so red that it dazzles the eyes.

Yu Hongyi saw that Qi Hong's hands were shaking and the veins were coming out, but he comforted him, "Things may not be as you think."

Qi Hong raised his head and looked at him.

"How long has it been since you saw His Majesty?" Yu Hongyi asked.

Qi Hong lowered his head, "It's been quite a few years."

"I actually met His Majesty when I took over the post of General. It took four or five months." Yu Hongyi said, "I was still far away from Your Majesty at that time, but I smelled a strong smell of medicine. Your Majesty Behind the curtain, I can't see his face clearly, but even if I only hear voices... I know His Majesty has been ill for a long time."

Qi Hong's face changed.His Majesty is ill. This is something that every citizen of Beiming knows, but no one knows how far the situation has reached.At this time, Yu Hongyi said these words specially, and naturally he didn't just repeat the facts that everyone knew.Qi Hong understood that His Majesty's condition must be more serious than he thought.

"Besides Your Majesty," Yu Hongyi asked him, "Who is the most powerful person in Beiming?"

"Of course it's the prime minister." Qi Hong gritted his teeth and squeezed out the words.

But soon, his face changed slightly, and he corrected himself, "No, if there is only the prime minister, I'm afraid he won't be able to use the jade seal easily. I understand, there must be servants around His Majesty colluding with him!"

If the servants colluded, it would not be difficult to deceive His Majesty into pressing the jade seal.

This was something Yu Hongyi never thought of.Hearing what Qi Hong said at this time, he also felt that it made sense, so he couldn't help but nodded.

"Hateful!" Qi Hong was so angry that he slapped his Chinese book on the table, "These treacherous ministers!"

From Qi Hong's mouth, Yu Hongyi learned more about the internal affairs of the Beiming court, as if he saw vividly how the Beiming prime minister formed a clique to get to his current position step by step.At that time, the emperor of Beiming was in good health and could suppress him, but the prime minister was actually conscientious for the country and the people, and people thought he was a good official.Now that the emperor is sick, the good reputation that the prime minister had accumulated before is still there.If he hadn't learned about these things and he trusted Yu Hongyi, Qi Hong would not have believed that the prime minister had reached this point of lawlessness.

After scolding, thinking that most of the imperial court has been colluded by the prime minister, Qi Hong couldn't help but thumped again, and expressed his worry again, "Is my father involved in these things too?"

Yu Hongyi smiled, "Do you think Prince Gong got involved?"

"Of course not! Although my father was a little cruel to me, he will never do such bad things." After Qi Hong finished speaking, he sighed again, "Actually, I am quite worried. Boss, you said that I am now Follow you to make trouble, will the prime minister mess with my father over there?"

"Although Prince Gong has no real power, it may not be easy for the prime minister to make things difficult for him." Yu Hongyi comforted him a few words, and then asked him, "Did you tell others about your worries?"

"Don't mention it, how dare you." Qi Hong waved his hand, "Boss, you don't know that Song Ping is crazy now, whoever dares to say a word to the people in the court, he can fight desperately with anyone. In my opinion, he doesn't even plan to recognize the father who is an official in the court. Even those of us who are ready to recognize him don't dare to say..."

This man named Song Ping was the soldier who had been speaking for the imperial court all the time, and then was the first to stand up and resolutely oppose the imperial court.

The sudden change from worship to hatred is indeed more intense than the hatred that existed at the beginning.

Yu Hongyi frowned, and was about to speak, when the friendly soldiers outside the window suddenly started making noise.

"Boss!" Soon a soldier rushed in and hurriedly said to Yu Hongyi, "Song Ping and Miao Cheng are fighting, boss, hurry up and take care of it!"

Yu Hongyi raised his eyebrows, secretly thinking that he really came as soon as he said it.

When he went out, he saw Song Ping with red eyes, gritted his teeth and pinned Miao Cheng to the ground, with both hands pinching Miao Cheng's neck, as if he wanted to strangle him to death.

Yu Hongyi hurriedly rushed over, pulled the person away, and hurriedly asked what happened.

"Boss, let me go!" Song Ping was still yelling with red eyes, "This kind of wolf-hearted thing will benefit the common people after death!"

"Fuck you!" Miao Cheng coughed, not forgetting to scold him there, "You are the kind of wolf!"

Song Ping was so stimulated that he almost broke free from Yu Hongyi's grasp.

Yu Hongyi had no choice but to knock Song Ping on the neck, knocking him unconscious.The world is finally clean.

"What's going on?" He looked at Miao Cheng again, and asked the question again.

Miao Cheng rubbed his neck and curled his lips, "I just said... I was a little worried about my father, and I was afraid that my father would be implicated by me... He rushed over and insisted that my father was a wolf-hearted man who did things for the court. I was worried My father is also a wolf-hearted dog! I asked him, his father is also working in the court, isn't he worried? In the end, he went crazy! It's just."

Yu Hongyi and Qi Hong exchanged glances, and fell silent for a while.

Miao Cheng misunderstood the reason for Yu Hongyi's silence, and quickly explained, "Boss, I don't mean that I don't want to follow you, I will follow you for the rest of my life! I, I just want to write a letter to my father." , before the imperial court reacts, tell him to find a way to protect himself..."

After he said these words, although the surrounding soldiers did not respond, many of them couldn't help but nodded.Obviously, there are many others who share his concerns about their families.

Yu Hongyi sighed, "You guys are thinking too simply."

All the soldiers were taken aback.

"If the imperial court wants to embarrass your family, it's definitely not something they can do if they want to be careful. The letters you send out of worry will become their reminders. Unless we venture into the capital and pick them up directly." Yu Hong Yi said, "But there is another problem. Your family members may not agree with your decision."

All the soldiers were silent for a moment, and their faces gradually turned pale.

It seems that it was only at this time that they came out of the shadow of those corpses in the old city, found their own rationality in those boiling blood, and finally understood the meaning of the decisions they made.Are those hot bloods really worth the risk they put their loved ones at?What's more deadly is that their family members themselves are part of the imperial court.

In the final analysis, the four words of betraying the court are too heavy, and it is not something that one can afford with passion.

"Everyone!" At this moment, Qi Hong suddenly shouted loudly, "What we want to oppose is not the entire imperial court, but only a part of the scum in the imperial court!"

Everyone raised their heads immediately, and their eyes all fell on him.

"Your Majesty has been sick for a long time, and these things are definitely not from His Majesty's original intention! It is the prime minister who deceived others and did all this in the name of His Majesty!" Qi Hong said, "We are not traitors, we are the North Loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty! We must eradicate the treacherous ministers from His Majesty so that His Majesty can govern the country better!"

After these words, the faces of all the soldiers brightened, as if they had finally found a fulcrum for their decision that they could agree with.

Yu Hongyi listened to these words with cold eyes, although he disagreed in his heart, he did not object.On the side of the Qing emperor, it is always the most perfect reason.Even if he doesn't need such a reason, such a reason can at least make these soldiers feel much more at ease.

"Yeah, we're just weeding out the scum."

"We are the loyal ministers of the imperial court!"

"But, who are the scum of the imperial court?"

This sentence made the atmosphere froze for a moment.

But soon, the stiff atmosphere dissolved, and all the soldiers showed relaxed smiles.

"Anyway, it won't be my father."

"Hahaha, my father is definitely not either."

"My old Miao's family is loyal and good, and it is absolutely impossible to be with the prime minister."

"That's right, my second uncle and the prime minister are the worst offenders, and the whole court knows that."

"Hmph, my father had a good relationship with the Prime Minister ten years ago, but then they broke up for some reason. I didn't understand it at the time, but now I finally understand it. My father is truly wise and powerful."

With these few words down, the atmosphere became more and more relaxed.The Prime Minister can regard the Eighth Brigade as a thorn in the side of Yu Hongyi, so he naturally dislikes the Eighth Brigade.Those who will be arranged to come in are indeed mostly children of powerful families who are not at odds with the prime minister.

Just as they were discussing more and more happily, Song Ping, who had been knocked unconscious by Yu Hongyi before, finally woke up.

Hearing these words, Song Ping's eyes became more and more red.

The soldiers paused for a moment, then remembered something.Most people in the Eighth Brigade did not get along with the prime minister at home, which is true, but there are always exceptions to everything.Song Ping's father happened to be the one who was brought into the official career by the prime minister.

Everyone was in a trance and understood...the reason why Song Ping has been so excited and lost his composure so easily...I am afraid that these things they are only discussing now, Song Ping has actually thought of them a long time ago.

"Song Ping," Yu Hongyi asked him, "Are you worried about your father?"

Song Ping moved his lips and sneered, "He's just a wolf-hearted scum."

"Tell me the truth," Yu Hongyi asked again, "Are you really worried about your father?"

Song Ping opened his mouth again when he heard the words, but he couldn't make a sound at all.After a while, Song Ping's eyes suddenly became redder, his shoulders twitched, and he started to cry, with big tears falling down continuously.
