Wan Qiao beckoned, and a few fluttering Yangzhou beauties came out of it, came to the hall, and presented a wonderful song and dance. Gaozong glanced at the dance, and seemed a little absent-minded.

Wan Qian understood and took the opportunity to say: "Back to the emperor, the third beauty of Yangzhou is about to appear, please ask the emperor to comment." ”

After speaking, he opened the curtain with his own hands. In the sound of the pipa, I saw a stunning beauty sitting in the room playing the pipa, that posture, that figure, that line, that beautiful and pink face, that veined affectionate eyes, at a glance, it was simply soulless.

Yue Fei heard the sound of the pipa like fairy music, and couldn't help but glance at the beautiful woman in the room. This subtle change in him was clearly seen by Gaozong.

In order to further test Yue Fei, Gaozong said: "Yue Aiqing, if you like this girl, I will make the decision for you and marry this girl to you." ”

Yue Fei listened, blushed and said: "The holy good intentions of Weichen have been understood, Weichen's family has a bad wife, and he will not marry another girl, please take back the emperor's life." ”

"Marshal Yue doesn't want fame and fortune, he doesn't want to drink, he is simply a flawless saint, and we are really beyond our reach. Qin Hui said.

"Yes, Marshal Yue is indeed a model for us. Zhang Jun echoed.

Gaozong listened to Qin Hui and Zhang Jun's singing and harmonizing, stood up and said with a serious face: "Yue Aiqing, I have already opened my mouth, you can go and have a good chat with that girl, if you can talk, you can agree, if you can't talk, it's just that." I don't lose my dignity. ”

When Yue Fei heard this, he had to reluctantly agree, and he walked in alone, while Gaozong and the others waited quietly in the hall outside. After a while, Yue Fei came out of the house, and he said to Gaozong: "Back to the emperor, Wechen has made it clear to the girl, that girl is in her prime, she can find a good home, Wechen can't delay the girl's youth, and the girl has agreed to Wechen to do this." Weichen has the grace of the emperor, and Weichen is guilty, please forgive the emperor. ”

"That's it, go down, you can do your own business, I don't care. Gaozong said with a wave of his hand.

When Gaozong returned from Yangzhou, his heart was depressed. Qin Hui's words made him doubt Yue Fei's loyalty in his heart.

"Yue Fei doesn't want fame and fortune, he doesn't greed for wine, does what he wants in his heart be the Great Song Dynasty? No, I have to test it again to see what he thinks of power? If he is not interested in power, it will be even more unpredictable. Thinking of this, Gaozong was planning to test Yue Fei again.

On this day, there was finally an opportunity to probe, and Emperor Gaozong received an urgent document, saying that Wang De and Li Qiong, the commanders of the Huainan and Huaixi armies, were mutually exclusive, and the situation was like fire and water, and the emperor was asked to decide. Emperor Gaozong didn't know what to do when he heard this? Yue Fei was a military general and wanted to hear his opinion. First, to test Yue Fei's loyalty, and second, to test his ambition.

The emperor sent his chamberlain to invite Yue Fei to the Imperial Garden, and he wanted to talk to Yue Fei alone about his thoughts. Yue Fei came to the Imperial Garden, where Emperor Gaozong was already waiting.

"Yue Aiqing, sit, today we are here to talk about it from the bottom of our hearts. How much credit Aiqing has made for the Great Song Dynasty, you don't accept your official position, you don't want to give you a mansion, you don't love money and beauty, why is this?" Gaozong asked curiously.

"Weichen Jin Ge Iron Horse, the decisive battle on the battlefield, not for fame and fortune, but for the people of the Great Song Dynasty to live and work in peace and contentment, and live a peaceful life. Yue Fei's master Zhou Tong worked hard for the Great Song Dynasty all his life, and fought bloody battles with the Jin people several times, until the oil ran out and the lamp dried up, and he never forgot his ambition to serve the country. Although Yue Fei is not as good as Master Zhou Dong, he must be like him, a dignified iron-blooded man who is worthy of the sky and the earth, and is loyal to the country all his life. Yue Fei said.

Gaozong listened to Yue Fei's words, and his heart was overjoyed, he had heard of Zhou Dong's name since he was a child, he was the No. 1 instructor of the Great Song Dynasty, responsible for teaching the Imperial Forest Army. He is also the first hero in the rivers and lakes, the top master in the martial arts, and even characters like Lin Chong and Lu Junyi are his disciples. Yue Fei is Zhou Dong's apprentice, and he has no intention of fame and fortune, he really believes it a little, because Master Zhou Dong was unwilling to go to the rivers and lakes for the sake of officials.

"Yue Aiqing is Master Zhou Dong's apprentice, no wonder he has Master Zhou Dong's style. Master Zhou Tong is the person I admire the most, he has made a lot of contributions to the Great Song Dynasty, and I will go down in history with his name. Gaozong said.

"Wei Chen thanked the Holy Grace for the master. Yue Fei knelt down and saluted.

"Yue Aiqing, the reason why I summoned you today is because I have a very important matter to discuss with you. I received an urgent letter from Huaixi, saying that Wang De and Li Qiong, the leaders of the two armies of Huainan and Huaixi, were mutually exclusive and incompatible, and that the two sides were in great danger. I wonder what Aiqing thinks of this?" asked Gaozong.

"Wang De and Li Qiong are on par with each other, Wang De is treacherous and cunning, and Li Qiong has a short temperament. If Wang De is right, Li Qiong will definitely not be convinced, if Li Qiong is right, Wang De will definitely not be convinced, according to Weichen, neither of them is suitable to lead this team. Yue Fei said.

"Aiqing thinks it's appropriate to send someone to take charge of this army?" asked Gaozong.

"Zhang Jun is brave and unscrupulous, and his temperament is fierce, and it is difficult to control this army. Yue Fei said without thinking.

"How is Liu Qi?" asked Gao Zong.

"The Huaixi Army is a miscellaneous army, the army has a serious habit of stragglers and bravery, and it takes fierce medicine to cure the Huaixi Army. Yue Fei said.

"According to Aiqing's view, no one can take care of this army, can you just let them do whatever they want?" asked Gaozong.

"Naturally, someone is in dire need of management, and if we don't send someone to manage this army well, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles. Yue Fei said.

"So, who should I send to put this army in order?" asked Gojong Banxiang.

"If the emperor can trust Weichen, Weichen is willing to go to Huaixi to be ordered to save this army. The Huaixi army is brave and good at fighting, if they surrender to the Jin country, the consequences are unimaginable, the matter is urgent, please ask the emperor to decide. Yue Fei knelt down and pleaded.

When Gaozong saw that Yue Fei had automatically asked Ying to be the commander-in-chief of the Huaixi Army, he thought to himself: "Those commanders of the Yuejia Army are all Yue Fei's brothers, if Wang De and Li Qiong worship him again, then won't the Yuejia Army and the Huaixi Army become the Yuejia Army? Since he promised Jin Guo to take back Yue Fei's military power, he couldn't go back on his word and shoot himself in the foot. ”

"Yue Fei, get up, I don't believe that no one in the Huaixi Army can do it except you. You've worked hard all these years, so you don't have to worry about this matter, I will send someone to manage this army. After saying this, Gaozong brushed his sleeves and left.

"Your Majesty, this matter is extraordinary, if it is not handled well, it will give 50,000 troops and hundreds of thousands of people in Huaixi to the Jin State, and it will be too late to regret it, please think twice. Yue Fei said anxiously.

"I have my own ideas in my heart, and I don't have to worry about it. Gaozong threw a sentence from afar.

When Yue Fei heard these cold words, his heart hurt like a knife. He remembered that the first time he was ordered to come to Beijing and lead 800 soldiers to fight a few beautiful battles in a row, beating Jin Wushu to the Yellow River, and almost killing Jin Wushu.

He remembered that the first time he was recalled to Beijing, he was calculated by the traitor Zhang Bangzong, and it was Master Zong and Master Li who rehabilitated Zhaoxue for him. He remembered how obedient the emperor was to him in Niutou Mountain, but now, he had fallen to such a point, and he wanted to do more for the Great Song Dynasty, but who knew that the emperor did not listen, and he was still disgusted.

"This must be caused by Qin Hui tinkering in the emperor's ear, accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, it seems that the best way for me to be idle at home is to do so. Thinking of this, Yue Fei decided to write his resignation.

Gaozong returned to the study with a stomach full of anger, and after a while, Qin Hui came.

"Qin Aiqing, what you said is not bad, this Yue Fei does not seek fame and fortune, and he is not greedy for wine, but he has a soft spot for military power, it seems that he wants to turn the Huaixi Army into his Yuejia Army. He proposed to me today to take up the post of commander of the Huaixi Army, but I did not agree to him. Gaozong said.

"Emperor Shengming, that Yue Fei has ill intentions, and he should get rid of it as soon as possible to prevent future troubles. Qin Hui took the opportunity to speak.

"Yue Fei is not at fault, rashly get rid of him, I am afraid that the marshals and the officers and soldiers of the three armies will not accept it. They are all people who share life and death with Yue Fei, they have great admiration for Yue Fei's character, and getting rid of him at this time will definitely cause a mutiny. This matter has to be considered in the long run, unless we have all kinds of evidence in our hands that Yue Fei is a traitor. Gaozong said.

Qin Hui was silent when he heard this, and he knew in his heart that Gaozong's concerns were justified.

"I can give him anything, but the army can't do it, if he lets him have the Huaixi Army again, then it will be a big trouble. Qin Aiqing, who do you think I should hand over to the commander of the Huaixi Army?" asked Gaozong after speaking.

"This army should be directly under the control of the imperial court, and the emperor can order Wang De to serve as the commander-in-chief, and Li Qiong as the deputy commander-in-chief, and send Zhang Jun to announce the decree, and by the way, to serve as the supervisor, so that it will be foolproof. Qin Hui said.

"What Aiqing said is very true, I will draft a decree and write another edict to Yue Fei, so that he will die of this heart. I asked Aiqing to hand it over on my behalf, and I wanted to dry him out before talking. "Gojong drafted the decree and the edict.

Ever since Yue Fei rejected the emperor's request, he had seen the emperor's thoughts, and his heart was very sad.

"I didn't expect Yue to serve the imperial court, and the emperor actually doubted my loyalty. It seems that what Monk Daoyue said is true, I should have made a plan early and left Lin'an as soon as possible, so as not to attract the disaster of killing. Yue Fei finally made up his mind to leave Lin'an.
