"Shijie, you don't have to persuade me, I've made up my mind. Xin Qiji raised his head and drank the last glass of wine, and the sound of the wine glass colliding with the stone table seemed a little cold in this lonely night.

Dang Huaiying pursed her lips tightly, her thumb clasped tightly in her palm, and she didn't say a word. "Tanfu, do you really refuse to stay in the north with me?" Seeing Xin Qijian getting up to leave, Dang Huaiying said urgently.

Xin Qiji slowly turned his back, "Destiny returns, since what I have obtained is a hexagram, it is destined for me to go south." Saying that, Xin Qiji closed his eyes, he didn't dare to face Dang Huaiying's sad face.

"Could it be that for me, can't you let go of the hatred in your heart and stay in Jinguo?" Dang Huaiying gritted his teeth, trying not to let his tears fall, but the crying in his voice could not be covered up no matter how hard he tried.

"So, will you go south with me for my sake?"

Bland, no waves.

In the spring of the third year of Shaoxing, the gold lord died after Yan Liang, Xin Qijian defected to Geng Jing, rebelled against Jin, and served as the secretary.

"Brother Geng, I have a good friend who has recruited a thousand people, and I want him to join us. This is my correspondence with him, please take a look at it. Under the lamplight, Xin Qiji took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Geng Jing, and said.

"You'an, have you heard that recently the Jin Army has come to a new infantry commander called Dang Huaiying. Geng Jing took the letter, but he was not in a hurry to open it, but asked lightly.

"Oh? I don't know about it. Xin Qiji's heart was shocked, why did he come too.

"I heard that this party Huaiying, you and You'an have known each other since childhood, and they are classmates, and they have a lot of friendship, don't you know such a big thing?" Geng Jing pulled out the letter, shook it, and said.

"Since it is said that it is not known, it is not known. I hope that the general will not be embarrassed and despicable!" Xin Qiji's tone was faintly angry. "I have been a general for more than a year. Please also ask the general to speak directly, and don't do gratuitous scheming that has something to say. ”

"Haha, You'an, you misunderstood. I'm just asking you how I have something to say. You and I are brothers in life and death, don't go to your heart for such unintentional words, and get a pimple. Geng Jing patted Xin Qiji's shoulder and said.

"Is this Yiduan a monk?" Geng Jing asked after reading the letter, folding it back into the letterhead.

"Yes. Yi Duan was a marching monk I knew in the early years, and I talked with him about the situation today. I can only say that his views are beyond the reach of ordinary people. Although Xin Qiji was full of anger, since Geng Jing said so, he had no choice but to suppress his anger.

"Okay, let him come as soon as possible, a thousand people, a lot. Geng Jing just turned around, and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, You'an, this matter of going south to Song ......"

"Go south to the Song Dynasty, don't delay. Xin Qijian said categorically. "Going south to the Song Dynasty is a burden of public expectations, this is one of them. After returning to the Song Dynasty in the south, it is no longer just a weak resistance of our own strength, but if we do not return to the Song Dynasty, who can stop the arrival of the Jin army? This is the second one. And the third...... I think it's time to recognize our ancestors and return to our ancestors. ”

"Then, in the next month, I heard that Gaozong will come to Jiankang to work for soldiers, and at that time, you will look for it. My name as the envoy of the balance festival can finally be confirmed. Geng Jing let out a long breath and said.

"Humble duty. ”

Gold Camp.

"Tanf. Dang Huaiying looked at the south from afar and muttered softly. "If I win this time, you can go back with me, okay?"

Dang Huaiying's eyes were closed, his brows were deeply locked, and his whole person trembled.

"Shhh A gust of cold wind slashed Dang Huaiying's cheek, making him gasp involuntarily. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he hurried to his tent.

"Tanf, it's so windy outside, and everyone's faces are hurting. Dang Huaiying looked at the mirror, tracing her eyebrows, looking at herself in the mirror, and smiled. "Tanf, look, am I beautiful?"

Just when Dang Huaiying was drunk, Wanyan Junli suddenly broke into the tent. "Huaiying, ......"

"Get out!" Dang Huaiying's hand shook, and her dark red eyebrows were scratched on her sideburns, looking a little hideous.

"Hmph, Dang Huaiying, although you are appreciated by Your Majesty, you have to understand that I am the general! You are just a commander!" Wan Yan Junli was startled by Dang Huaiying's loud drink, but he quickly came back to his senses.

"Get out!" Dang Huaiying turned his face slightly, glanced at Wan Yan Junli from the corner of his eye, and spit out a word.

"A big man, hum!" Wan Yan Junli suddenly had a feeling of being targeted by a ghost, and he no longer argued with Dang Huaiying, and left in a hurry, but he still scolded on his lips.

"Tanfu ......" After seeing Yan Junli leave, Dang Huaiying turned his head and looked at himself in the mirror, "Beautiful, so beautiful." ”

"Hmph, this party Huaiying, really take himself seriously!" Wan Yan Junli returned to the camp tent and smashed his sword on the ground fiercely.

"General, I don't know who provoked you so angry?" Deputy General An Ru hurriedly picked up Yan Junli's saber and offered it with both hands.

"It's not this party Huaiying, relying on his own appreciation by His Majesty, that he doesn't take me seriously!" Wanyan Junli sat down on the main seat and poured down the water in the cup to calm down a little. "Go, bring in the generals from all walks of life, and prepare for the next battle. ”

"Yes, the last general will go now. An Ru leaned towards Yan Junli and then turned around and wanted to leave.

"Wait a minute," Wan Yan Junli put the letter on the table and stopped An Rutian again, "Go and see the commander of the party capital, if he is fine, invite him too." After saying that, he caught up with him again, "Be careful, don't disturb him." ”

An Rutian wanted to say something, but swallowed again, "Yes!"

"Dang Huaiying......" Wanyan Junli gently tapped the table with his index finger, and Dang Huaiying's back appeared in his mind, as well as that shocking glance, and said to himself.

Ten days later, the rebel army camp.

"Yiduan has seen General Geng. A middle-aged bald man hugged his fist towards Geng Jing with a smile on his face.

"Haha, Master Yiduan, don't take these formal etiquette into account. Since they are all anti-Kim uprisings, they are their own brothers, so why bother with these. Geng Jing affectionately hugged Yiduan and pointed to everyone, "This is You'an, you also know it." This is Selon, my lieutenant. This is Jia Rui, this is Anguo......"

After getting to know everyone one by one, Yiduan took the more than 1,000 people he brought to the stewardship.

"You'an, can this righteousness really be reused?" After sending everyone away, Geng Jing took Xin Qiji to inspect the military camp together.

"I have known Yiduan for several years, and the reason why he became a monk was because he was forced by the Jin people, and he would definitely not be a lackey for the Jin people. Xin Qiji pondered for a moment, "And his talent, I don't think is below me." 'The trend of the north and the south is actually the same, but the Great Song Dynasty is not weak but the heart is weak, so in the past, it will be defeated. There are many people who can say this, but they can be followed by a sentence that says, "However, the queen of gold is really uncertain, if you can make good use of the remnants of the border north, you will definitely be able to break the enemy in one fell swoop." 'Yes, the world is so big that there can be a few people. ”

"Well, what you said is very true. But, you see. As he spoke, Geng Jing took out a thin bamboo tube from his bosom and used it to transmit secret messages in the army. Geng Jing took out a roll of paper from the bamboo tube and handed it to Xin Qiji.

"The big plan is first realized, and then it will be carried out. Xin Qiji opened the note and read. "...... this?"

"Yes, there are spies among us. This was intercepted by Shilong last night, which makes me have to wonder about Yoshiduan. Geng Jing stared at Xin Qiji, frowned deeply, and said.

"This ...... Let's investigate again, but don't be wronged. Xin Qiji frowned, although so, he threw the choice to believe in Yiduan.

"Well, to-morrow you will take him away, and I will search his account, hoping that my guess is wrong. Geng Jing exhaled a mouthful of white mist, looked at the north and said, "I don't know when I can drive these miscellaneous pieces out of my home country." ”

Xin Qiji also looked to the north, "It won't be long, you and I will see this day." ”

A few days later, Song Ying.

"You'an, recently I sent An Guo to closely monitor Yiduan, and there is no clue. Could it be that there is someone else in the spy?" In the past few days, Geng Jing not only searched Yiduan's residence, but also closely monitored him, but he did not find any problems with Yiduan, which made him have to wonder if he was wrong to blame Yiduan.

"I told you a long time ago that Yiduan will not be a lackey for the Jinren. Hearing Geng Jing's words, Xin Qiji was also relieved, after all, Yiduan was summoned by him.

"You'an, I heard that Gaozong will be in Jiankang next month, I want you and Jia Rui to go south together and return to the Song Dynasty with the recital. Geng Jing suddenly said in a deep voice, "Since this traitor is not a righteous end, then, we need to be more cautious." The traitor must be found out as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable. Alright, you go first, and I'll make a little more rounds. ”

"Good. It will live up to the high expectations of the general. ”

On the same day, the Golden Camp.

"Huaiying, the withered leaf butterflies over there in the Song camp have suddenly stopped moving in the past few days, and I don't dare to take the initiative to contact them easily. Could it be that they have been arrested?" Originally, according to the plan, the withered leaf butterfly planted in the Song camp would come back every three days, but this time, there was no news for five days, which made Wan Yan Junli very anxious.

"It's okay, I've already arranged everything, and they'll make their own decisions. Dang Huaiying stood in front of the case, without raising his head, looking at what he was writing.

"Then, I don't know what Huaiying's plan is?" For some reason, Wanyan Junli was no longer angry at Dang Huaiying's disregard, and his tone was more gentle.

"It's almost time. Dang Huaiying took back the last pen and put the pen back on the inkstone, "You will send a few people to the Shili Bridge north of the Song camp after the time, and someone will come when the time comes, and you will bring him back." However, now I have searched the handsome seal and military formation map on his body, if he doesn't get the handsome seal...... It didn't help keeping him. ”

"Hmm, are you going to use these butterflies so early?" Wan Yan Junli frowned. "Wouldn't it be too early to use these butterflies now?"

"Do you know that Song Gaozong will tour the labor army in the north?" Dang Huaiying straightened his sleeves and raised his head to look at Wan Yan Junli.

"Huh?" Wan Yan Junli was suddenly stunned, "No, I don't know." ”

"When the rebel army returns to the Song Dynasty, the existence of these butterflies will be meaningless. Dang Huaiying looked at Yan Junli with no emotion in his eyes. "Alright, what's the matter, I'm going to rest. After that, he didn't care whether Yan Junli's answer was or not, and turned his back.

"Well, I'll go first. Wan Yan Junli looked at the back in front of him, I don't know when he would have this feeling......

He day, Song Ying.

"You'an, what else do you have to say. Geng Jing looked at Xin Qiji with his sword in his hand, followed by dozens of soldiers. "You keep saying that Yiduan can't be a lackey of the Jin people, but now, he stole the handsome seal, how can you explain it! Today, I won't behead you in front of the battle, how can I explain to the brothers!"

"It was indeed my negligence. However, give me three days, and if I can't catch Yiduan back, it's not too late for you to kill me. Xin Qiji let the soldiers detain him, and he didn't resist, just stood upright and said loudly.

"Slashed!" Geng Jing resolutely turned his back, waved his big hand, and shouted in a low voice.

"General! Wait, please give You'an another chance!" Jia Rui suddenly took a big step and fell to one knee in front of Geng Jing.

"Yes, please think twice!" Wang Shilong and many other generals also knelt down to plead for Xin Qiji.

"This ......" Geng Jing looked at the many brothers and hesitated. He couldn't bear to kill Xin Qiji like this, but he had to give an explanation for this matter.

"General, please think twice!" At this time, the surrounding sergeants knelt down one after another, pleading for Xin Qiji, and even the two soldiers who detained Xin Qiji also let go of Xin Qiji and knelt down to intercede for Xin Qiji.

"Well, then, I will give you three days. Unable to endure the pleas of the soldiers, Geng Jing finally relented.

Xin Qiji glanced around at the soldiers around him, and without saying a word, he turned over and jumped onto Geng Jing's war horse. "Thank you for your trust, I will arrest the traitor. Then he spurred his horse and walked away.

After a pillar of incense, Xin Qijian caught up with Yiduan, who hurried to the Shili Bridge. "Yiduan, why did you betray me!" Xin Qiji shouted, galloped up, and knocked Yiduan to the ground with a sword. Xin Qi spun back, pointing his sword at the righteous end, "Why!"

"You'an, you've misunderstood!" Yi Duan clenched his chest and said quickly, "I calculated a hexagram the day before yesterday, and I calculated this Geng Jing's fate of nothingness. And you, You'an, are green rhino appearances, but you can dominate the world! I stole this handsome seal, but it was actually for you!"

Xin Qiji lost his mind slightly, but soon his eyes froze, "Die!"

Gold Camp.

"Huaiying...... When An Rutian arrived, he only saw a headless corpse on the ground, and his body had also been searched. Wanyan Junli frowned, with a sad face, "This, what should I do?"

"It doesn't matter, righteousness is just a pretense, the real plan, this is just the beginning. Dang Huaiying said and took out a scroll of paintings, handed it to Wan Yan Junli and said, "This person must be captured alive, not dead." ”

"What is this?"

"It's none of your business, just remember what I said. ”

Ten days later, Song Ying.

"Be careful, young man. Geng Jing brought horses for Xin Qiji and Jia Rui, and advised, "Be very careful on this trip, and you must meet Gaozong." ”

"The general doesn't have to worry, the two of us will go back as soon as possible. With that, the two men reined in their horses and left.

Gold Camp.

"Huaiying, the spies have come to report that the rebel army has two horsemen out of the city and headed south. Wanyan Junli was angrily reprimanded by Dang Huaiying this time, but he was not angry, he just waited quietly outside the tent until Dang Huaiying spoke.

"I already know that. Let them go, those two. I've made a decision. Remember, don't do anything to the two of them, don't mislead me. Dang Huaiying put his sideburns on his hair, "In less than five days, the rebel army will be self-defeating." ”

"This ...... All right. Wanyan Junli is used to Dang Huaiying's blindness to him. Just as he stepped out of the tent, he suddenly looked back at Dang Huaiying, "Huaiying, you are beautiful." ”

Dang Huaiying trembled, "Get out!" Looking at Wanyan Junli who was leaving in a hurry, Dang Huaiying threw out the porcelain cup on the case and sobbed at the desk. "Tanf ......"

"What! You said General Geng was assassinated?" Xin Qiji went south to meet with Gaozong smoothly, discussed the matter of returning to the Song Dynasty, and decided to return to the south with the people after returning. However, when he returned, he heard that two days ago, Zhang Anguo and Shao Jin took advantage of the night to assassinate Geng Jing, cut off his head, stole Shuai Yin, and fled north to Jinying.

"It was our dereliction of duty, and by the time we found out, the two traitors had already escaped far away, so we had no choice but to give up. I don't know, the secretary can have a countermeasure. Wang Shilong kept his head down, not daring to face Xin Qiji.

"Countermeasures, what countermeasures can I have. However, General Geng, you can't just die in vain. Even more not, let him die in a different place!" Xin Qiji slammed his sword into the ground, "But there are soldiers who dare to go north with me to avenge the general!"

"I'm willing to go north with the secretary!" Xin Qiji shouted, and Wang Shilong followed closely. With a shout, more than 50 soldiers were willing to put their lives and deaths out of the way, and went to the gold camp with Xin Qiji to hunt down the traitors.

"Brother Geng, I wanted to work with you to drive the gold thief out of my country, but now, ...... I hope Brother Geng will walk well on the road. Xin Qiji slammed the porcelain bowl to the ground, "There is no wine in the army, so I have to wronged Brother Geng." Although Brother Geng can rest assured, he will live up to Brother Geng's high expectations. ”

"All the soldiers listen to the order, follow me, kill!" Xin Qiji drew his knife to the north and slashed the sun. More than 50 soldiers tied red scarves on their right arms and stepped on the sunset, just like light armor stained with blood, and righteousness was thin.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Xin Qiji's people had just broken into the Jin camp in the night, and the Jin camp whistle shouted.

"Kill!" Xin Qiji's eyebrows were cold, the killing intent in his eyes burst out, and he raised his knife and cut down a Jin Army soldier. At this moment, the night was like a knife, and more than fifty war knives were like a killing star at this moment, and the shadow of the god of death followed wherever they went.

"Xu'an!" In the shadow of the sword and sword, one person was finally picked off the horse by the Jin army, and the one who was with him could not save him, so he was shot off the horse by a cold arrow from another place.

Xin Qiji's eyes showed a cold light, and his expression was indifferent. The lone rider leaped out, swung his sword and fired several feathered arrows, and rushed straight away.

"General, dozens of rebels have entered our army's camp and are menacing. At this time, Wanyan Junli was drinking with Zhang Guoan in the tent, celebrating Zhang Guoan's achievements, and a military attendant hurriedly broke into the tent and shouted.

Before he could say anything else, a horse sprang out and trampled it alive.
