The Light, The Sword

Chapter 41: Break the formation

Views:

Downstairs, the sound of silk and bamboo pipe music came into your ears. He Zhu looked at Yue Fei, who was looking at the bustling crowds on the street outside the window. He couldn't help but be slightly surprised: "I always thought that Pengju is not happy, but I didn't expect Pengju to treat the people. Hundreds of attitudes, so attentive?"

Yue Fei retracted his eyes and said with a laugh: "Master He has misunderstood. Younger Yue Fei is lonely. After joining the army, he has been fighting in all directions for years. It is rare for him to be in such a prosperous market today. It is quite fresh for a while, and he laughs. Up."

He Zhu was surprised and could not help being speechless for a while.

He had a secret conversation with Yue Fei today, and he didn't want to make any publicity. Although the seat of the "Rouyunxuan" booked was elegant and quiet, it was definitely the most common small restaurant in Lin'an city, and the crowds outside the building were bustling. The prosperous scene of Lin'an is the most common situation in Lin'an.

Among the scholars of the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that no one can understand better than He Zhu. I don't know how much Yue Fei and the others exchanged their blood for the prosperity of the singing and dancing in Lin'an City.

When he was appointed as the Zhengqing of Dali Temple, he originally presided over the case of Yue Fei. He saw Yue Fei with his own eyes. There were so many deep scars left by swords, guns, bows and arrows, and almost every wound was made once. Nearly dead.

It is precisely because of this that he withstood Qin Hui’s coercion and temptation at the time, and made the conclusion that the investigation of Yue Fei’s case was unsubstantiated and was indeed an unjust imprisonment. This led to the emperor's official Long Yan furious and dismissed him from office. He was even implicated in imprisonment, so he was convicted.

Therefore, he also understands that Yue Fei still feels novel about such a common situation in Lin'an until today, because he has never enjoyed the lazy and leisurely life that Lin'an people have been accustomed to.

As a scholar of the two rankings and a literary and ink background, he was quite contemptuous of the vulgar martial arts who were born in the army, but since the trial of Yue Fei's case, he has learned a lot about their dossier and their words and deeds. The character has gained a deeper contact, but it is unconsciously and a little bit more understanding.

Since the reversal of Yue Fei's case, it was the first time that he had met with Yue Fei privately, but he had already felt a little bit of sympathy in his heart.

It's a pity that even though things change with time, the two still can't help standing on a tit-for-tat position.

The world is fickle, one ass!

He toasted, and sighed slightly: "When I saw you in the past, Pengju was especially a death row prisoner whose life was hanging on his hands. See you today, Pengju is already a guardian in Lin'an, but in He Mou's mouth, he really can't say the word'congratulations'. , Naihe! Naihe!"

Yue Fei also understood his meaning, smiled slightly, raised a glass and said solemnly: "Yue Fei always wanted to thank Mr. He for the past, but it was only until today that he had a chance. Yue Fei respected Mr. He for this cup! "

He Zhu drank it and shook his head gently and said: "Pengju was able to survive this time, thanks to the emperor's official Tianzong's wiseness. He was never fooled by the traitor at the critical moment. He said nothing, and he never helped. Why are you busy? Pengju's thank you, He Mou deserves it."

Yue Fei laughed dumbly and said: "Since he was recalled to the capital by the twelve gold medals that day, Yue Fei has already put his life and death out of the question. Yue Fei thanked Master He, but it was not Master He who tried to keep Yue Fei's life!"

"Oh?" He Zhu frowned slightly: "What do you say?"

"We are soldiers, fighting outside, desperately living, bloodshed and beheaded, but in front of the emperor official, these may not be as important as a scholar's war-inspiring essay, but it is nothing. After all. It is our duty to serve as a soldier to protect our family and the country and the people."

A faint bitter smile appeared at the corner of Yue Fei's mouth: "What's more, no matter how hard we are as soldiers, at best, we can only keep our homeland and country peaceful, and protect the people from the suffering of plunder, and truly create the world of Shengping in the Great Song Dynasty. If we really want the people to live a good life, we still have to rely on you scholars!"

"Although Yue Fei has not read any books, he also knows that'cultivating one's body, aligning the family, governing the country, and maintaining the world' is originally your duty as a scholar! Like Prime Minister Li Gang and Master Zongze, they are all in Yue Fei's mind for a long time. The object of reverence."

"Even when he was hurriedly recalled back to Beijing by the twelve gold medals. When he gave up his ten years of merit, Yue Fei kept telling himself that the emperor's official family was only unclear about the people for a while, and the ministers in the court were only temporarily unclear about the situation on the front line. As long as I tell them clearly, and as long as I explain to them how powerful it is, they will eventually understand that only by fighting back the gold can they truly bring prosperity to the Song Dynasty!"

"However, it wasn't until Yue Fei returned to Lin'an City that he really understood that this tortoise was huddled up and down in Lin'an City, and what he was thinking about in his head!"

Yue Fei’s face showed a sardonic look: "The jackal is in power, the demons are rampant, and the one in power is thinking about how to stay safe and keep the power in his hands; those who are not in power are thinking about how to cheat their boss and sharpen their heads. We kept climbing up; we were desperately working on the front line, thinking about how sooner or later we would rescue the millions of people in Jiangbei who were wailing and wailing under the iron hooves of the golden man. They sang and danced in Lin'an city, but what we thought was how to hold our eyes. Something, even hesitated to bow to the golden man for this, even hesitated to give Yue Fei's head to the golden man..."

"So I want to thank Lord He, Lord He, for letting Yue Fei have the last bit of hope for the court and the civil servants in Lin'an."

Yue Fei raised his glass, drank it slowly, and let out a sigh of relief: "That's not the case. Yue Fei was born and died for more than ten years, but he really doesn't know what to call..."

He Zhu opened his mouth, but after all he just sighed.

What Yue Fei said was not groundless.

He also knows how unbearable the habits of Lin'an officialdom are.

The only difference between him and Yue Fei was that he understood the obstacles that caused this situation better than Yue Fei, who had been fighting for a long time.

I'm not a scholar in the world, I really lost my integrity in this way.

It’s just that Qin Hui has used his own method to preside over the selection from scientific research to the employment of the country for more than ten years. Most of them were demoted from office and left idle. On the contrary, they were those who were good at flattering him. They often used them out of style and suddenly reached high positions. Under the circumstances, this little court in Lin'an was good at seeing beauty. The people who chase the color and drill the camp accounted for most of them, and because of this, everyone knew that Yue Fei’s case was an unjust case, but apart from himself, there was no more literary minister who spoke a word for Yue Fei. It almost turned the unjust case into an iron case.

It's just that He Zhu had no intention of entangled and argued with Yue Fei. He frowned slightly and said: "It is because of Pengju's painful experience that he hopes that he can use the military commander to replace the civil servants and win the power of ruling the country?"

"Seize power?" Yue Fei said in surprise, "Why Lord He said this?"

He Zhu put his hand on the side of the table and stood up slowly: "This time Pengju strongly supported Bao Daren in carrying out the two donations. Didn't he really have such an idea?"

"It is a well-known thing today that the Ziguan family admires the Yuanyou rule and despise the new law of Jing Gong. At this time, the emperor official family is out of the army, and Pengju uses a military commander to guard the country. It should be safe and secure. Pengju’s own responsibility, and now Pengju has risked the world’s bad faith and supported that actor’s background. What kind of scheme did Bao Daren, who had an unpredictable origin, promote? In this way, even if it succeeds, Pengju will inevitably fall into the name of arbitrarily using things, causing The emperor official is suspicious and dissatisfied; and if it fails, Pengju will definitely be pointed out by thousands of people, no matter how hard it is to gain a foothold in the hall! Pengju employs troops, strategizes, and wisely, how can he not understand the obstacles? As shown in the picture, how could Yi do such a misguided right thing?"

He stared directly at Yue Fei, as if to see through his heart, and slowly said: "He Mou treats you as a friend. Today I want to ask the truth. Can Pengju tell me honestly, what He Mou said, is it right?!"

Yue Fei looked back at He Zhu and laughed blankly: "Master He can answer me a question?"

He Zhuwei was dissatisfied, but still suppressed himself, and said, "Please tell me!"

Yue Fei looked at the busy street outside the window, with a chuckle at the corner of his mouth: "Master He has served in the prefecture and has a hundred times more experience in managing affairs than Zhu Yuefei. Chen, if it can be implemented practically, is it beneficial to the national economy and people's livelihood?"

He Zhu pondered for a moment, and nodded: "These two donations are indeed feasible, but the hasty reforms are not compatible with the ancestral system. At this time, Pengju supports the implementation, and it is not suitable regardless of people, place, time. , Pengju..."

Yue Fei said: "Master He thinks, in what way does it seem appropriate to implement these two regulations?"

He Zhu said solemnly: "Naturally, when the emperor's official family is victorious, he will return to the court and call the civil and military officials to discuss together. If everyone can agree..."

He suddenly realized the problem and couldn't help but stop.

Yue Fei laughed: "Master He finally understands."

"Yue Fei is not a scholar and doesn't understand any ancestral laws, but Yue Fei also knows that if his majesty stays in the court and calls for a group of ministers to discuss the law, then if it is not for nothing, it is to ask your majesty to fight against all opinions and take action. Arbitrarily, since your Majesty Ren Yuefei is staying in Lin'an at this time, then Yue Fei should be the wicked person, so why bother to bring your Majesty in?"

He looked back at He Zhu, his eyes clear and sincere: "Yue Fei's thoughts, there is only one thing, and that is these two Chens. Are they really beneficial to the poor? This is Yue Fei's. To be honest, I don't know how to believe it or not?"

He took a long breath, and sat down in a chair somewhat exhaustedly: "Everyone is for the same Da Song and the same people, so why should there be so many worries, and where did so many calculations come from?" Yue Fei's cunning tricks were all directed at the enemy who wanted to invade the Song Dynasty, and never at his own colleagues."

He Zhu was stunned for a while, filled his glass and drank it, and said with a wry smile: "Pengju you said, but he pointed at the monk and cursed the bald donkey."

Yue Fei looked at the market outside the window and sighed softly, "Civil officials are not greedy for money, and military officers are not afraid of death. The prosperity and prosperity of the Song Dynasty is just around the corner. Why should you be afraid of the little Jurchen."

He Zhu slightly chewed on these two sentences, "Civil officials are not greedy for money, and generals are not afraid of death", he couldn't help but shake his whole body. He looked at Yue Fei, his eyes shot with understanding and admiration.

He got up, came to Yue Fei's body, looked out the window with him, and said lightly: "Pengju may not know that there is a big storm, and it is coming soon!"

……

Han Chang looked at the smoke-bearing city of Shuzhou, and listened to the crazy screams of the Jurchen soldiers in his ears, and finally a smile broke out at the corners of his mouth.

He did not hesitate to put these two artifacts on the battlefield as soon as possible, in order to dissolve the shadow of the Song State General's arrow yesterday, which left the shadow on the Jurchen Sergeant's heart, and at the same time suppress the Song Army's morale that was so strong after yesterday's battle.

Otherwise, in such a situation, maybe even the mediocre and cowardly Emperor of the Song Dynasty would be inspired, and would not be afraid of his own army besieging the city.

At present, the incompetent Emperor of Song State who can give orders in Shuzhou City is the incompetent Emperor of the State of Song. He would never let his sergeants fight a head-to-head battle unless he had to do it.

What he needs is to defeat the enemy psychologically as soon as possible.

The effect right now is ten times better than what he expected.

Some Jurchen soldiers even followed the Shanbaran, cheered, danced, and worshipped the two statues, as if they had already won the final victory.

Before today, even if Han Chang had known from Jin Wushu about the horror of these two legendary artifacts that sealed the black fire of hell, he had never imagined that their power could be so powerful.

This seems to be no longer a force that belongs to the human world. No wonder the Jurchen sergeants worship these two statues of gods and demons as the incarnations of gods and demons.

The defenders at the head of Shuzhou City had already put out the flames and brought in fire-resistant materials such as sand, soil, asbestos, and erected a temporary barrier.

Only he knew that these two artifacts could not actually erupt the black fire of hell indefinitely, but he believed that this was enough to scare the Song State army in Shuzhou City, especially the Song State official who cherished his life like gold. Guts.

The tenacity of their fighting spirit has been quite unexpected to Han Chang.

At this moment, they retreated behind the barrier and couldn't shoot the two artifacts with ordinary arrows and crossbows. They actually shot the two artifacts with the sharpened sticks as arrows, and the two artifacts clinked. Although the two artifacts were made of cooked copper and were not damaged in the slightest, the arrows flew around, and they also shot the people who were manipulating the artifact and pushing the "shield" by a few.

However, Han Chang believed that it was only a matter of time to let them deeply experience the power of these two divine tools, and to defeat their fighting spirit.

The hand of the man on the side stepped on the arrow sticks that had already piled up into a thick layer to replace the injured man and horse.

Han Chang squinted at the sun, raised his hand, and waved it down.

The war horse that affects the artifact has hissed and hooves.

A figure suddenly rose from the head of Shuzhou city to the sky.
