In the face of such a generous gift from Gaozong, anyone who changes it will give the emperor a face.

After all, China is a humane society, as the saying goes, you don't hit a smiling person when you reach out your hand, not to mention that the one who gave the gift is still the current emperor's majesty?

But Yue Fei won't.

Regarding the appeasement edict sent by the emperor, Yue Fei said angrily to the staff: "Dog and sheep have to have an alliance!" ”

Is the covenant between the wolf and the sheep credible?

This truth is so simple, why didn't Emperor Gaozong understand it?

All the staff members were infected by Yue Fei, and they talked about it one by one, and they were indignant. Among them, Zhang Jiefu even used Yue Fei's "dog and sheep" words to make a big play, splashed ink on the spot, and generously wrote a thank you form.

“… The captives are reluctant, the dogs and sheep have no faith, do not keep the covenant of gold and stone, and it is difficult to fill the demand of the ravine...... I am willing to plan for total victory, and hope to reap the land in the two rivers. Yanyun at his fingertips, and finally wants to take revenge and serve the country! ”

Although the text of this thank you table is impassioned and powerful, in terms of effect, not only can it not awaken the emperor's blood, but it also increases Gaozong's disgust for Yue Fei.

Comparing your heart to your heart, you are in love with a cold ass, and that cold ass is still your own subordinate, if you are Emperor Gaozong, how will you be so self-contained?

Of course, for Yue Fei's reaction, Emperor Gaozong was also mentally prepared. I saw that he stuffed the thank you table indiscriminately, and replied to insist that Yue Fei accept this credit and obey the reward of the imperial court.

In Emperor Gaozong's mind, this was no longer a question of reward, but a question of whether his subordinates were willing to obey the emperor's orders.

However, the stubborn Yue Fei continued to say no to the emperor.

Yue Fei regarded the reward as a shame. He continued to say strongly: "It is a matter of national affairs. There is no room for disappointment. At first, he was different from everyone, but he really wanted to be loyal to the royal family. The desire to quickly chase after sleep, showing the unfathomable meaning of Siyi. If the minister takes the liberty to accept it, it will be like hurting the body of the court in the future. ”

If the minister takes the liberty to accept it, it seems to hurt the dignity of the court if he betrays the alliance in the future.

This Yue Fei is too ignorant of lifting!

Although Yue Fei made a fierce resistance. But for an established policy, Emperor Gaozong and Qin Hui would not easily make changes.

After another six days, the imperial court promoted Yue Fei's official rank to the third division of Kaifeng Fuyi and the first product as scheduled. From the perspective of the official system of the Song Dynasty, Yue Fei's achievements in officialdom have surpassed that of his mentor Zong Ze, reaching the palace-level level of the Tao of Cultivation.

At the same time, in addition to the "Words" issued by the imperial court to confirm the promotion of official ranks, there was also an edict from the emperor to Yue Fei.

Emperor Gaozong severely reprimanded Yue Fei in the edict, and with the help of the stories of Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang and Yanghu Tuntian in history, he asked Yue Fei to accept the reward honestly. Seriously go to the garrison to farm the land, and don't meddle in things anymore.

Cao Cao is in Xu Tuntian. In a few years, the accumulated millet and barns are full; Zhuge Liang divided his troops in Weinan to reclaim, the people were happy, and the army was selfless; Yanghu is even more terrible, when he first served in Southern Xia, the army was less than 100 days of rations, but in the third year, there was a ten-year accumulation, and the people of Jiang Han were a little more at ease......

Look at you, the reason why they can become a generation of famous generals is because of years of accumulation and deep financial support, you can't learn from them?

Regarding Emperor Gaozong's edict, Yue Fei's answer was:

"The ministers are virtuous and talented, and they dare not talk about the ancients. His Majesty Fumeng personally sprinkled Chenhan, paved the second and third sons, and the matter of sufficient food in Tuntian, and bowed down to the ministers. Dare not to be blunt, in case of the holy will? The husband serves the field force, but there is also autumn, and the farmer is in office. It is not difficult to use Tuntian to feed the soldiers. The minister is not afraid, and he is willing to be late in the years, and dare to serve the edict. If you want to make the faithful to advance virtue and not be abandoned by a gentleman, the minister will be reluctant to catch it. If the husband whips the four yi, respects China, supports the sect in Zai'an, and assists the son of tomorrow to enjoy the rest of the eternal world, the ministers have the ambition of a small area, I don't know if I have to stretch it! ”

Why is it difficult to make the army food sufficient through the tuntian? But now I'm more willing to do something that is difficult to do to improve morality through loyalty and trustworthiness. As for whipping the four yi, strengthening the national strength, restoring the community, assisting the Son of Heaven, and so on, so that the people can enjoy boundless happiness for all eternity, I really don't know if I can achieve these aspirations?

In addition, Yue Fei also reminded Emperor Gaozong: "Looking at Liang Suzhi, I want the dragon to look at the tiger, including the four seas, to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, the sky is not a year, and there is a hatred of Weinan." Hufu Jin Wu, there is a heart of annexation, Houping Wu can't see it, the second son is interested in fame, and Zhifu Keshen, it's a pity! ”

Although Zhuge Liang is farming in the Tun army, his lifelong ambition is proud of the world, and he wants to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty. Yanghu assisted Emperor Wu of Jin, with the ambition to unify the world, and later the state of Wu was leveled, but he did not see it in person, his two sons intended to inherit their father's will, but it was not completed for a long time, but it is a pity!

This round of correspondence between Yue Fei and Emperor Gaozong has nearly a dozen back and forth.

If it is based on the interests of the country and the great cause of the nation, no matter how you look at it, Yue Fei is reasonable; But in fact, from the perspective of the social culture and ethics of the monarch and the courtiers at that time, Yue Fei's unyielding and outspoken words became arrogant and domineering towards the emperor and the imperial court.

The mountains and rivers are broken, the court is humiliated, and the remnants are in tears. As the commander of 100,000 soldiers, how can he abandon the Central Plains without hesitation?

Knowing that it was impossible to get the emperor's support, Yue Fei once again asked Gaozong to resign: "Relieve the military affairs and retreat to Linquan." ”

In modern companies, employees resign from their bosses to express their serious dissatisfaction with the company and their bosses, and this is the most powerful means that employees can take. The same applies to ancient times.

I have to say that the number of times Yue Fei has applied for resignation from the emperor is too much. Repeated and repeated requests for resignation were not a good thing for the suspicious emperor.

As soon as you are dissatisfied, you have to pick a son, where do you put the emperor?

Emperor Gaozong's reply to Yue Fei is also very interesting:

"Gu Anwei pay attention, I can't forget it; But in the end, you have one heart, and you are also thinking about it. Eden this righteousness. No more clouds. Please do not allow"

Your responsibility is to defend the country. Other things. You don't pay attention to it, and don't ask.

Emperor Gaozong's words are clear and clear enough

Yue Fei was forced to be promoted, and then he sent another recital to the imperial court:

"Taiwei, Wu Sheng, Dingguo Army Jiedu Envoy, Hubei, Jingxi Road Xuanfu Envoy, and Concurrently Yingtian Ambassador Chen Yue Fei played: The minister Fu Guan descended to the pardon on the twelfth day of the first month, and handed over Henan Prefecture County, and the land under the jurisdiction of the ministers of Jinghenan Prefecture in Neixi. Since Liu Yu stole the possession, the ancestral mausoleum has been deprived of strict service for a long time, and the ministers are not able to overcome the feelings of the courtiers, and they want to beg to dry the officers and soldiers. Bow and sweep. Listen to the music and wait for the edict. ”

If Yue Fei's previous disobedience was a very obvious transgression, this request to sweep the tomb of the royal ancestor is full of warmth, after all, the ancestral tomb is located in Yue Fei's jurisdiction.

However, Yue Fei's request was lightly vetoed by Emperor Gaozong.

Emperor Gaozong's reply was: "The commander has been demoted, and Zhang Tao, the chief officer of the same sentence and the squire of the military department, went to the mausoleum." The Privy Councils of the three provinces were jointly decreed: a note from Zha and Yue Fei; Hou set off from the officials, applied for the command of the imperial court, took his own soldiers, and went to pay homage together. ”

The location of the ancestral mausoleum is very close to the place where the Jin soldiers are located. If Yue Fei is really allowed to go, the ghost knows if there will be a mess. Therefore, Gaozong sent Zhang Tao, the squire of the military department, to move forward.

It's obvious. In the eyes of Emperor Gaozong, Yue Fei had become an unstable factor

The first peace agreement signed between the Southern Song Dynasty and the Jin State, the so-called Heavenly Dependency Agreement, aroused strong opposition in both the Southern Song Dynasty and the Jin State.

The voices of the Southern Song Dynasty and the opposition were suppressed by Emperor Gaozong and Prime Minister Qin Hui, and there was a tendency to gradually fade; However, the opposition in the country of Jin, because of the sudden turn of one person, soon became the mainstream opinion of the country, and as a result, the country unilaterally tore up the agreement that was signed not long ago.

Jin Guo, a person who is determined to make a statement, is Wanyan Wushu.

Limited by the relatively small population base, after years of non-stop battles, most of the famous generals of the older generation of the Jin Kingdom died on the battlefield. Especially after Wanyan Sticky Han and his family were killed in a failed palace coup, there are only a few people left in the Jin Kingdom who can handle it now.

Because of this, the importance of Wanyan Wushu's opinion to the Jin court is self-evident.

For this heavenly agreement, Wanyan Wushu was strongly supported at the beginning stage, because he was afraid of the army of the Southern Song Dynasty.

was almost trapped to death by Han Shizhong in Huang Tiandang, was blocked and chased by Wu Jue twice in the northwest, and was repeatedly defeated in the hands of the Yue family army in Huaixi, and so on.

If you want to ask which general in the Jin State has lost the most times to the Song army, Wanyan Wushu deserves it!

Therefore, in volume 178 of the "Three Dynasties and Northern Alliances", and volume 133 of the "Records of the Years since the Establishment of Yan", there is such an incident, Wanyan Wushu and his henchman Han Chang drank at night and admitted very frankly: "The southern army of today, its courage is our army in the past; The cowardice of our army today is the southern army of the past. ”

Therefore, when Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Chang said to him: "I will be with the Song with the land, and the Song will be with me", Wanyan Wushu immediately voted in favor of the peace discussion.

But the problem is that Wanyan Wushu is not 100% supportive of this kind of peace negotiation.

As Yue Fei said, all agreements are based on the reciprocity of force.

Because of the existence of the pseudo-Qi Liu Yu, the Jin State has not directly fought with the Song army for more than two years. Time can make people forget past failures, but it can also make people have some unrealistic illusions.

The weakness and repeated forbearance of the Southern Song Dynasty court in the process of negotiating peace gave Wanyan Wushu a space for imagination: Could it be that the combat effectiveness of the Song army was also declining?

All of the above, coupled with the political struggles within the Jin Kingdom, suddenly changed Wanyan Wushu's attitude towards Heavenly Concord...... (To be continued......)
