Chapter 202: Pull on the chariot
"Fight against gold on your own?" Xin Qiji was taken aback, although he had already guessed Yue Wudi's thoughts, but when Yue Wudi said it himself, he was still a little shocked.
Resisting Jin on their own means not being restrained by the imperial court, and how can the faint monarchs and powerful ministers in the imperial court tolerate it? Although they are not good at dealing with foreign enemies, they will never hesitate to suppress internal enemies.
"Although the old man has been dismissed, he is still a courtier after all, how can he do such a thing of supporting the army and respecting himself?" Xin Qiji hesitated.
"The younger generation admires Lord Xin's talent and learning, but what they admire even more is Lord Xin's bearing and insight. Yue Wudi said sincerely: "Lord Xin should know that with the strength of the imperial court, not to mention the future Mongolia, even the current Jin State, will not be able to fight." β
"Lord Xin is loyal, but what he is loyal to is that of tens of millions of Han people in the world, not the monarch above the court. For the sake of the survival and safety of the Han people, we should do something that we should do as Han people, so why can't we?"
Xin Qiji was silent for a while, and then said, "To be honest, do you have the idea of replacing the Zhao family?"
"Nope. Yue Wudi did not hesitate and said, "The younger generation can guarantee that he will never be an enemy of the Great Song Dynasty in this life." β
Although Xin Qiji is not the kind of pedantic person, if he wants to go against the imperial court, then Xin Qiji will definitely not help him, which Yue Wudi can see from his serious and cold eyes.
Seeing that Yue Wudi resolutely said the words of not being the enemy of the Great Song Dynasty, Xin Qiji's expression softened slightly, and he said: "If you don't rebel and form your own forces, the old man will not object." It's just that after you become more powerful in the future, the court will still inevitably be suspicious. Although the Yue family army was a court building, it actually only obeyed the orders of Prince Yue. This has led to the difficulty of Yue Wangye's turmoil pavilion, your ancestors have learned from the past, and you may not be able to avoid it in the future. β
Yue Wudi didn't care, but said, "I'm not afraid, are you afraid, Lord Xin?" Why do you only talk about me and not yourself? Is it true that Lord Xin is only going to sit on the sidelines?"
Xin Qiji smiled, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, and said, "I still have such a mind, and I don't have such an ability." Back then, there were still some family assets that could be squandered, but now that the family has no money to spare, and the dismissed officials are still at home, how can they form an army on their own?"
"If Lord Xin is concerned about this. Don't worry. Yue Wudi explained: "In fact, the younger generation is not prepared to form an army with great fanfare, but only secretly develops forces, and when the time comes, they will suddenly attack." β
"Right now, both the caravan and the soldiers under my command are already in preparation, but there are still some available talents. There's still plenty of time. Therefore, I plan to train some talents myself, and I would like to ask Master Xin to help me teach them. Let them be lean no matter whether they are talented and hardworking, or loyal to their character. β
Xin Qiji stroked his beard and said, "If it's just cultivating some talents, it's no problem. The old man is now dismissed at home, and there is nothing to do. If you can get talents and nurture them, you won't waste your time. β
Yue Wudi was immediately overjoyed, and Mo Youming couldn't help but smile shallowly.
Xin Qiji smiled and said: "You little lovers, you are really in love, I just agreed to such a small request as Wudi." Xiao Ming, you are happy to be like this. β
Mo Youming's pretty face turned red, but then she returned to normal, and said generously: "Uncle Xin, you really make fun of me." Do you know that the academy he wants to build is called Hengshan Academy, and he wants to help me rebuild the Hengshan faction. β
Xin Qiji was slightly stunned, then laughed and said, "You guys, but if the Hengshan Sect can be rebuilt, your father can rest in peace under Jiuquan." β
Mo Youming said: "I'm just a little girl, I only think about avenging my father and the Hengshan faction, but I never thought of rebuilding the Hengshan faction, this idea is still thanks to Wudi who came up with it." β
"Hmm. Xin Qiji nodded and said: "Back then, the Hengshan Sect was destroyed, and you were the only one who survived. Even the old man, out of indignation, also killed the Iron Palm Gang, but he failed to kill Qiu Qianren, but he saved Qiu Qianren's master, Shangguan Jiannan. β
Mo Youming's eyes were red, and he said gratefully: "It turns out that Uncle Xin once had such a great favor to me, and Xiao Ming is unforgettable." β
Xin Qiji waved his hand and said: "Don't let it be like this, I had a relationship with your father back then, these are all things that are within my bounds, but it's a pity that I was dismissed at the beginning of that year, my mind was resentful, and my martial arts were detracted, so that my success fell short." Fortunately, now that Qiu Qianren has been killed by you, these many things can be regarded as an end. β
"It turns out that there are such reasons in between, no wonder Shangguan Jiannan's generation of heroes is willing to be a housekeeper in Lord Xin's mansion. Yue Wudi said with relief.
Xin Qiqi said: "Brother Shangguan and I are like-minded, and we also have great skills, how can I really be his butler? It's just that there are no subordinates in this villa, so Brother Shangguan calls himself a butler and supports the faΓ§ade for me." β
So that's the case, Yue Wudi nodded.
Next, Yue Wudi and Xin Qiji discussed some preparations for the establishment of the academy, and Yue Wudi was responsible for the funds, while Xin Qiji helped select some school-age children to study in the academy.
Xin Qiji drew up a list of the children who were the children of large families, and who were gifted and well-known in the village, and who would be carefully trained by their own families or enter the top academies if nothing else.
As for a little-known academy like Hengshan Academy, it must not even be considered.
But if there is Xin Qiji's solicitation, I believe that the patriarchs of those big families will definitely not hesitate and will choose to send the disciples of the clan to Hengshan Academy.
After all, although Xin Qiji has been dismissed, his reputation is so great that no one can compare with him, whether in the government or in the opposition, and it can be said that he is unmatched for a while.
As long as the children of these big families come to study in Hengshan Academy, those families will be more or less connected with the academy, and they will do their best in the future where they can be useful.
Of course, this must be based on Yue Wudi's own strength, if Yue Wudi's power is vulnerable, I believe that those big families will not hesitate to regard the disciples they sent to Hengshan Academy as outcasts. (To be continued......)
