Chapter 34 Getting Started
"The imperial edict has arrived, what do you think?"
In Huanghelou Mountain, Ji Boyi, who was wearing a Taoist robe, casually placed the imperial decree with gorgeous needlework and glittering gold on the table, and asked questions to the people sitting around him.
Yue Fei was wronged in the court, and he lost his temper and quit his job, which caught both Gao Zong and Zhang Jun by surprise. The Northern Expedition had just been successful, and the Jin people could not hold their heads high, and they were a nation with a greater reputation than the emperor.
The hero actually refused to accept this grievance. And the hidden meaning made a group of generals in the Song Dynasty feel sad. Liu Guangshi, one of the four generals of the army, has been dismissed, and Yue Fei resigned because of this. Let
Han Shizhong, who had always had a hot temper, and Zhang Jun, who was ruthless and cunning, were both in awe. They expressed their opinions unanimously. No matter what kind of conflicts they usually had, they must unite under the pressure of civil servants.
The storm caused by Yue Fei's resignation has not yet fully erupted, but the entire Song Dynasty is already slightly unstable. It was originally the best time to regain the country, but the emperor negotiated a peace. The morale of the people and the army was greatly lost, and the prestige was not even higher than before.
Surrender. This made Gaozong, who had just won the battle, feel even more uncomfortable. However, at this time, he really did not dare to provoke this group of generals. Therefore, as the central figure, Yue Fei naturally had to be solved and coaxed.
Object.
The reason for his resignation was because Zhang Jun, as the prime minister, made sarcastic remarks. As long as Zhang Jun surrendered and apologized to Yue Fei, everything would be no problem.
But the problem is that Zhang Jun refused to lose face. As the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, Zhang Jun had disciples all over the world, at least half of the country. This was also a figure that Gaozong was afraid of.
As an emperor, it was not once or twice that his civil and military generals lost their tempers, and it was not that he had never played a mediating role. It was just that this time Yue Fei ran directly back to his hometown, saying that he was guarding his mother's tomb, and Gaozong's whip could not reach him.
As the emperor, he naturally could not go out to Lin'an for Yue Fei alone. He could only send his imperial edict to the Yue Family Army, asking the Yue Family Army to send people to invite Yue Fei out.
"Huh, the marshal worked hard for the Song Dynasty, but his eyes were sick. The old lady died without leaving the front line. Now that we have won the battle, those dog officers are adding insult to injury, full of sarcasm, and according to my wishes, they will directly lead the army into
Lin'an, let the emperor know that this country is stable because of our existence."
Yang Zaixing's words made some military attachés nod in agreement. In their view, the whole world is not as good as a hair on Yue Fei's body. These people are all Yue Fei's crazy fans, but most of the people who can sit in high-level positions are
They are all high quality powder.
"Nonsense, luckily you are still from the Yang family, you can even say such things."
Zhu Meng, who was in charge of criminal law and discipline in the army, was predictably furious. Even though the old man was over fifty, the sound of his palms on the table was still extraordinary, and Yang Zaixing couldn't help but shrink his head.
"Then what do you want to do? It's not like you don't know the marshal's temper. If he gets stubborn, he won't be able to pull back ten cows."
A senior military attaché stood up and pushed the question to Zhu Meng.
"Of course, according to the imperial edict, the marshal was invited back."
…
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and even the Yue Family Army is no exception. But usually with Yue Fei around, he can suppress all conflicts. This time he was not around, and various people from the civil and military officials, as well as the same faction, stood up.
Express your opinions and show your presence.
In the chaotic noise below, Ji Boyi stood at the top with a calm expression. Yue Fei was not around, so he was the one in charge. Due to his special status, no one provoked him. In order to cover up his young face in the past two years, he
He has grown two thick ink-like beards, adding a bit of majesty and a Yuan Ting Yue Zhi demeanor.
Apart from him, Li Ruoxu, who was under him, was calm and composed. He was obviously confident and could see through everything. Ji Boyi was a little surprised by the calmness of another person, that is Yue Fei's son Yue Yun.
His identity is unique. Although Yue Fei usually treats him very strictly, he is particularly respected by the military attaches. He is implicitly one of the leaders of the military attaches, and his status is not lower than that of Yang Zaixing.
"Shuai Yue should be very happy to have a son like this."
Being able to remain neither arrogant nor impatient under such circumstances, Yue Yun's performance made Ji Game very satisfied.
There was a "click", which was the sound of Ji Boyi placing the tea cup in his hand on the square table next to him. The crisp sound fell on everyone's ears like thunder, suppressing everyone's noise.
"Please give the military advisor an order!"
The people below also understand that they are making such noise just to show their presence. The imperial edict of the imperial court must be obeyed, even if it is just a show. However, the number of people to persuade Yue Fei is limited. How can they be ignored if they don't stand up?
The selection was made. The appointment was in the hands of Ji Boyi, the military advisor of the Yue Family Army, so when they saw him making a noise, everyone stopped knowingly and looked at the Taoist Xuanwu on the first seat.
"Brother Yixu, I'm sorry to bother you with this matter. You must invite Commander Yue back."
After finishing speaking, Ji Boyi stood up and delivered the imperial decree at hand to Li Ruoxu. The Yue family army could not be suppressed without him. Among the remaining people, Li Ruoxu was the most suitable in terms of eloquence and status.
Most people didn't speak out to object.
"You will live up to your expectations."
Li Ruoxu carefully accepted the imperial edict, and the people below began to commotion. There could not be only one candidate for this job.
"Master Military Advisor, it's a long way to go, and Mr. Yixu doesn't understand martial arts. Why don't you let a certain family lead a group of soldiers to escort the imperial edict and Mr. Yi?"
A military attaché with a square face and big ears spoke up. The rest of the people also spoke one after another. Some said that they were familiar with the road, and some said that they were experienced...
"Then let nephew Yue Yun and the division lead the team. I'm afraid no one here is more familiar with the journey home than nephew Yun."
As soon as Ji Boyi said these words, everyone here fell silent. There is absolutely no reason for Ji Boyi to change what he said, but there is really no reason for him to change it. Yue Yun is Yue Fei's biological son.
In theory and in terms of clean-up, he is more justified than them. As for Wu Shizhong, who makes him a direct descendant of the military advisor.
"Since you all have no objections, let the three of you set off."
It was not the first time for Li Ruoxu and the others to experience this concise and lively style of doing things. After saluting, they hid the imperial edict, and a cavalry team of more than 20 people left the Yue Family Army's camp.
After everyone left, Ji Boyi stood by the window, looking at the rushing Yangtze River, his eyes deep and deep, as if he said something unconsciously.
"Although Liu Guangshi's talent is mediocre, except for him as a general, who else has the prestige to make the Huaixi Army obey. Zhang Jun, Zhang Jun, I really can't figure it out, even if you want to suppress the military attache
, it shouldn’t be at this time, except for Yue Shuai and Han Shuai, I can’t think of anyone who is qualified to accept the Huaixi Army.”
As the defenders of the Huaixi front second only to the Xianghan front guarded by the Yue family army, its importance is self-evident. It is the best choice to hand the Huaixi army into the hands of Yue Fei. In this case, more than half of the entire Song Dynasty
With the military strength gathered under Yue Fei's hand, it was not impossible for the Northern Expedition to completely defeat the Jin invaders. As the prime minister, Zhang Jun could not see this clearly, but in the end he intervened and prevented Yue Fei from accepting the Huaixi Army.
Just when Ji Boyi couldn't figure it out, Zhang Jun established an unknown governor's office and sent Lu Zhi, who knew nothing about military affairs, to lead the Huaixi Army. As a result, Li Qiong, who was originally under Liu Guangshi's command, was
The banditry became fierce, and he killed Lu Zhi brazenly and led his troops to defect to the Kingdom of Jin.
If Yue Fei's resignation started the storm, then the "Huaixi Mutiny" caused everything to explode. Zhang Jun, who was busy suppressing the increasingly powerful military attache faction, did not expect that there would be such a bold person. He
Using the same methods as political opponents to deal with the soldiers, the result was that the soldiers directly killed the people sent by the imperial court and took hundreds of thousands of people hostage to join the Jin people. At this time, the great cause of resisting the Jin people, which had previously been dominant, immediately reversed course.
You must know that the total military strength of the entire Song Dynasty was only 200,000. Liu Guangshi's Huaixi Army accounted for more than a quarter. Now when Li Qiong rebelled, the number of people willing to follow his command actually reached 40,000.
People. Under this situation, the Jin people who were beaten out of breath by Yue Fei seemed to have taken a big tonic and began to mobilize their troops again, hoping to counterattack.
"Something is wrong!"
Ji Boyi's first thought when he learned about this was this. Not only him, but Yue Fei, who originally planned to be reserved, immediately ran out of his hometown after hearing the news, and after running to death three horses
, rushed back to Wuchang.
The Yue family army once again entered the highest alert. At the same time, Yue Fei submitted a memorial to Shangshu and expressed his willingness to lead his army to Huaidian to defend the court. However, the situation in Lin'an was not good. After such a big disaster, Zhang Yue, who had improperly employed people,
Jun immediately took the blame and resigned. This time, no one dared to intercede for him. After Emperor Gaozong agreed to Zhang Jun's resignation, he only allowed Yue Fei to lead his army to station in Jiangzhou. After the urgent matter, Yue Fei stabilized the morale of the army and entered the court in person.
After entering the imperial court, I don’t know what he said to Gaozong. I only know that after Yue Fei left, Gaozong smashed some exquisite porcelain to vent his anger.
From then on, the conflicts between the monarch and his ministers, who had been working closely together, began to deepen day by day.
"I have advised you a long time ago that there is no need for you to interfere in the emperor's family affairs. Even if brothers face the throne, they will fight with swords, let alone you as an outsider."
After Yue Fei heard this, he took a sip of wine and proposed to Emperor Gaozong to make his adopted son Zhao Yuan the crown prince. Naturally, he was scolded.
"His Royal Highness Yuan is enterprising, open-minded, and of noble character. He is the most suitable candidate for the crown prince. Why can't Your Majesty understand?"
Ji Boyi just shook his head and didn't say anything more, but Yue Fei's next words made him couldn't help but turn dark.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. I originally planned to resign and let you persuade me. Then I put forward the conditions for you to marry Ah Heng and I will come back after you agree. It's a pity that the Huaixi Army ruined my big job."
After saying this, he didn't know whether he hated Li Qiong for holding the people hostage and betraying him, or he hated the failure of his plan to force Ji Youyi to marry him. Yue Fei smashed the empty cup in his hand.
"The poor Taoist... is a monk..."
Ji Boyi's face was dark and red, and he explained weakly. Over the years, he and Feng Heng got along more and more happily. In addition, as he got older, Yue Fei, who always regarded himself as his elder brother, was very concerned about his marriage. Unfortunately, in his heart
Ji Game, who was troubled, kept avoiding this question, which made Yue Fei want to force him into the bridal chamber.
"Miss Lin hasn't come to see you in the past two years, which shows that you have no fate with him. Ah Heng is gentle, kind, virtuous, and a good cook. He has taken care of you without any regrets over the years. Don't let that happen.
She is disappointed."
It has to be said that men like the new and hate the old. After not seeing Lin Chaoying for two years, all the women in Ji Boyi's heart were Feng Heng. The two were already recognized as a couple, and they just had to go to the church to get married.
"You can't be considered a man until you have a family and a career. It's not like a Taoist priest can't marry a wife. Let's go back and pick an auspicious day and settle the matter between the two of you. Your Majesty just happened to let me rest and recuperate, and there is no war to fight. Recently, many things have happened.
If things are not going well and you are very unlucky, just use your wedding to celebrate it!"
