The old traitor should be robbed and stripped of the lord

Nightmares come to the lead mountain

Good news always comes belatedly.

The imperial court issued a proclamation, publicly announcing that it would deprive King Qin Hui of his title, change his nickname to Miao Chou, and tear down all the temples and shrines of Qin Hui throughout the country.

There are two passages in the words that demean Qin, which are very happy. One paragraph is that Yue Fei is loyal: the soldiers are in the five materials, who can go to it, and the first to gallop to the frontier; The ministers have no two hearts, and the way of heaven is also, bear to forget the hatred of the monarch's father? The other paragraph is to accuse Qin Hui of the harm of the peace talks: one day to set up the enemy, then the worries of several generations, a hundred years for ruins, who is responsible for everyone!

Yue Ke threw himself down in front of his grandfather Yue Feiling, burst into tears, and shouted loudly: The sky is above, justice is in the hearts of the people, and your old man can finally turn a blind eye. Now and then, the old thief of Qin Hui will become a sinner for thousands of years, and he will be left behind for thousands of years.

Han Yanxuan summoned Yue Cong, Yue Zhan, Yue Fan, and Yue Ke brothers in the Pingzhang Office and asked them: Now, the king of Yue E has been completely rehabilitated, and the old thief of Qin has also taken away the lord and stripped the lord, and the court intends to go on a northern expedition, what do your brothers think?

Among the brothers, Yue Cong was the largest and had the highest position, and after looking at the three younger brothers, he replied loudly:

Lord Pingzhang, my father-in-law's family has a deep blood feud with the gold thief, and I swear not to share the sky with the gold thief. Now, although we are civil officials, as long as the court needs it, we should also put pen to paper, go to the battlefield, wear perseverance, and fight to the death with the gold thief.

The others nodded their heads as well.

Han Yanxuan shouted, good look, worthy of being a descendant of General Yue. However, even if it started, it didn't get to that point.

He also asked each of them about their families.

Zhenjiang in March is a beautiful season of bright spring and peach and willow green.

Liu Longzhou found a manuscript from someone else and handed it to Xin Qiji. Xin read it with great interest, and there was an article called "Pro-Zheng Zhaocao", which aroused his interest. This is a draft of a pro-conquest edict written by Chen Kangbo, the right minister, when Gaozong was preparing to drive the imperial expedition in October of the 31st year of Shaoxing (1161). The draft is brilliant, impassioned and generous, and it makes people's blood rush to read.

Xin Qijian read it again and again, couldn't help himself, and wrote angrily: If Emperor Gaozong could issue this edict before the Shaoxing Peace Conference and personally conquer the enemy, our dynasty would not suffer the shame of being subordinate to Jin; If after the Longxing Peace Conference, Emperor Xiaozong can do what the edict says, he can also complete the great cause of recovering the lost land! But nothing was done, the edict was just a draft, and the Central Plains was still in the hands of the enemy, which was really sad.

For example, now, to prepare for the Northern Expedition, it is necessary for thousands of people to work together, recruit troops, train the whole army, build fortifications, and do it bit by bit. But in reality, many people advocate empty talk, they don't do anything, or they don't have the strength to do it, but they blame others with a shy face, how can the country be rich and strong if it goes on like this? How can the nation be rejuvenated?

What puzzled him was that his military training book had been handed in for several months, but there was no response, and the reuse of the old minister he expected had not made the slightest movement, what happened to Lord Han Pingzhang, who was in power and in the opposition? Does he want to rely on Su Shicheng, Xue Shuxiang and the like to command the Northern Expedition? Although these people are not as unbearable as Hua Yue said in Shuli, do they know the art of war, have they ever seen a war, and do they have the heroic spirit of being immediate, majestic mountains and rivers?

The spy he sent came back, and it was almost the same as he had predicted, the disaster and civil strife in the Jin State did exist, and the northern Mongol army was rising, eyeing the tiger, but Jin Zhangzong was not a faint king, the entire court situation was stable and orderly, and several main armies still had high combat effectiveness. On the other hand, the Song army, for decades, swords and guns have been put into storage, horses have been put in Nanshan, soldiers have not practiced martial arts, they have never seen battles, and the lack of generals is quite serious, such an army, what combat effectiveness is there at all! If you go on the Northern Expedition like this, you will be like the students said, and the teacher will be useless and defeated without a fight.

He had talked about this with Liu Longzhou, and Liu asked him: Then why don't you tell the truth in front of the emperor, but what do you want to talk about, you will be chaotic and die?

Xin Qiji gave him the answer: Obviously, the anger can not be vented, the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains is right, and it is rare for the high-level leaders of the DPRK to have such determination, and they cannot pour cold water. Besides, an experienced politician should be able to see the difficulty.

Thinking of this, he was a little worried, after thinking about it, he walked into the study, asked the maid to study the ink, and wrote a letter to Han Pingzhang, hoping to suspend the process of the Northern Expedition, first grasp the army training, train and select some generals, accumulate reserves, consolidate the border defense, and wait until the moment when the Jin State is about to collapse, and quickly raise troops to attack, which will be a big victory. He told Lord Han that from now on, actively prepare for war, as soon as ten years, at most twenty years, the Great Song army will definitely be invincible and return to the country in shame. Until then, you must not be impatient!

What Xin Qiji didn't expect was that the good news was not obtained, and his career had twists and turns. There is a petty official named Zhang Ying in the Ministry of Industry, Ren Tong Zhilang, who was accused of embezzlement of project funds and escorted to Lingnan for management. As his recommender, Xin Qiji was responsible for his wrongdoing, and was investigated by the imperial court, and his official rank was demoted from the court to the doctor, and he was ordered to return to Beijing to think about it.

Before he left, the book production of the imperial court arrived again. He was dismissed from his current post and moved to the prefect of Longxing. Originally, he was going to enter Beijing and present himself to Han Yanxuan, but after receiving this order, he had to go back to Lead Mountain first, and then make plans after a short rest.

A few days after returning to Huangquan, Liu Longzhou came. During this period, he went to Lin'an, inquired several times, and got some real information.

Why did Han Yanxuan suddenly want to raise an army for the Northern Expedition, mainly for his own consideration, because he offended the current queen, and he was afraid that his position would be difficult to protect, so he wanted to consolidate it through military exploits.

At first, the emperor was not enthusiastic, he suggested summoning you and Ye Zhengze, you have fought and know the Jin country, Ye Zhengze is recognized as a stable minister, as soon as the two of you say it, the emperor will be tempted.

For a while, Han Yanxuan wanted to transfer you to the Privy Council, but his henchmen Su Shicheng and Zhou Yunluan were afraid that you would steal their limelight, speak ill of you, and say that you are a reformer, so you must not be trusted. Moreover, in your letter, you said that you would have to prepare for at least 10 years. How long is ten years, Han Pingzhang can wait, they took the opportunity to say that the older you are, the more timid you are, on weekdays, you scream louder than anyone else, and when it comes to the critical time, you will pretend to be a bear.

Xin Qi was so angry that he slapped the table loudly, "Despicable! Dirty! With the heart of a villain, the belly of a gentleman, have you seen it? This is a traitorous villain! If Lord Pingzhang always listens to these traitorous words, how can the Northern Expedition win. ”

In the end, Liu Longzhou comforted him, don't worry about this group of villains, many things are not as good as you and I imagined, you just need to take care of yourself, those things can't be managed.

I see!

The infuriating stuff is still to come. He will be ready to leave for Longxing Mansion, the palace servant Deng Youlong wrote a letter of impeachment, saying that he was lustful for money and tortured indiscriminately, similar to the past, the court neither investigated nor allowed him to plead, and a piece of paper was written, except for the promotion of Chong Youguan, the rest of the officials, positions, and errands were all wiped out. Longxing doesn't have to go, just make the wind and the moon in the lead mountain!
