The twelfth year of Shaoxing, the fourteenth day of the first lunar month.

More than a year has passed since the second peace negotiation between Song and Jin Dynasties.

The palace in Bianjing just finished being repaired today.

Liu Chan looked at the brand-new palace walls and luxurious furnishings with satisfaction.

"Congratulations to the official family"

"Congratulations to the official family."

Prime Minister Zhang Jun, Zhao Ding and other civil servants raised their hands and said with a smile.

In this year, all the civil servants moved here from Lin'an Jiankang.

According to their own words, those are temporary resettlement.

How can they be as grand as the government offices in Bianjing ? Open and bright?

Still comfortable in the same place!

"Rejoice together, rejoice together!

I will hold a big banquet in the palace tomorrow, so everyone should come early."

Liu Chan was in a good mood and decided to hold a banquet for tomorrow's Lantern Festival with a wave of his hand.

"Official Long En"

"Thank you, officials!"

The ministers were particularly happy.

Not for tomorrow's banquet, but for a new beginning in the new year.

After the second peace negotiation between Song and Jin last year, the world was in dire straits.

Many places in the north were destroyed, and only restoration and dispatch The officials went and kept Prime Minister Zhang Jun and others busy for a whole year.

Now it's better, everything is moving steadily upward.

Both civil and military officials are happy, after all, the mountains and rivers have been restored in one fell swoop.

While everyone is busy, they are also happy.

In front of everyone With eager eyes, Prime Minister Zhang Jun stepped forward, cupped his hands and said

"Officials, is it time to consider rewards based on merit that have been postponed before?

Otherwise, those soldiers who have made meritorious service will not be rewarded for a long time.

Officials from various places who have meritorious service have been unable to get promotions for a long time.

It is inevitable that the hero's heart will be chilled."

Liu Chan nodded after hearing this. The delay was to prevent the Jin people from going back on their word and they had been preparing for war.

Now it seems that after the Jin Dynasty's vitality was seriously injured, it is temporarily peaceful and will not take the initiative to start a war in the next few years.

"Then write a rough outline, and I’ll take a look at it first.

If there are no problems, it can be announced and implemented. Prime

Minister Zhang"660" Jun was waiting for these words!

Under the excited eyes of everyone, he immediately took out a thick folder that had been compiled at the end of the year.

"Officials, please take a look. The front is the meritorious civil servants, and the back is the accumulated military exploits of the generals."

Obviously, the civil servants are still very thoughtful.

They put all the credit of their own side first, and wrote about it in a big way.

As for the generals, they wrote briefly, only accounting for one-third.

How many enemies were killed, how many cities were conquered, How long should you stick to it?

It can be said to save pen and ink. Write as many summaries as you can.

After Liu Chan took it, he glanced at it casually.

"Well, I know, I'll take a look later."

Then he handed this thick memorial with dozens of pages to the palace attendants waiting next to him.

"Put it in my study"

"Yes!"

The palace people left quickly.

Zhang Jun and other civil servants happily followed Liu Chan to visit the imperial garden before leaving.

On the way out of the palace, a civil servant suddenly raised his hand and said to Zhang Jun plausibly

"Mr. Zhang, please accept the next prayer!"

Then there was a series of flattery.

Words such as"Xiangong Zhang was indispensable for the restoration of the country".

The method was very simple, but very effective.

Others reacted immediately and hurriedly followed.

"In the fight against the Jin people, the whole court relied on Zhang Xianggong's diligence and hard work day and night."

"If it weren't for Mr. Zhang, this mountain and river would still be broken."

These words undoubtedly tickled Zhang Jun's heart, and the smile on his face bloomed visibly.

What he pursues is not money, but these reputations.

"Where is it? Is this Zhang's contribution?

The restoration of mountains and rivers depends on everyone's concerted efforts, haha."

At the end of the sentence, Zhang Jun couldn't help laughing.

"Later history books will record that Prime Ministers such as Zhang Xianggong must be at the forefront."

As soon as he said this, Zhang Jun's face became a little more rosy.

His laughter became even louder.

"Haha, you all have contributed equally, and history books will definitely not skimp on writing."

I lost myself in the praises from everyone.

Zhao Ding, the right prime minister, naturally has people to flatter him.

"Mr. Zhao’s hard work and great achievements"

"Logistics scheduling is all in your hands, and all wars, big or small, are due to you!"

"The officers and soldiers are victorious one after another, all due to Mr. Zhao’s good dispatching!"

There are people carrying the sedan chair. Zhao Ding is old, so he naturally eats this.

What's more, after finally recovering the mountains and rivers, can't he still be happy?

"It all depends on your cooperation. Thank you very much."

The civil servants praised each other, and the gate of the palace became a sea of ​​joy.

Since the disgrace of Jingkang, the civil servants in the Song Dynasty have never been so happy as today.

Everyone is standing tall and straight!

Of course, there are still some people who are not happy. Happy.

For example, Qin Hui, the Privy Council envoy, walked silently on the road.

Ordinarily, people in such positions should have great military achievements.

They are only slightly inferior to the two prime ministers Zhang Jun and Zhao Ding.

But who let Qin Hui, who was responsible for negotiating peace with the Jin people from the beginning?

He was busy with the first peace negotiation and the second peace negotiation.

If the Southern Song Dynasty was sidelined, the biggest contributor was naturally Qin Hui, who negotiated the peace.

It was he who ensured that the imperial court stability and peace on the border.

However, Liu Chan led Yue Fei and other generals to recover all the fallen territories, destroy Xixia, and greatly expand the territory.

In everyone's hearts, his status is second only to Zhao Kuangyin who established the dynasty..At this time, the peace negotiations between Song and Jin Dynasties became a joke.

Qin Hui also became a joke.

Not only did he not have much credit, he was also the object of faint ridicule.

He was jokingly called the peace ambassador.

"Mr. Qin, these people are really hateful!"

Qin Hui's subordinate said in a low voice, with a very angry look on his face.

"Forget it, let’s go."

The other party sighed, and then left with his hands behind his back.

Happiness belongs to them, not to Qin Hui and his subordinates.

Late at night.

Liu Chan sat on the desk, looking at the list of awards and methods given to him by Zhang Jun.

A difficult problem. bother him

"What should Yue Fei seal?"

He is in a bit of a dilemma. The other party is already the highest lieutenant.

In terms of official position, he is almost invincible.

"How about making me a prince? It doesn't seem to work."

Liu Chan said to himself.

Calculating the achievements of the Yue family army, it seems that the Duke is not enough to compare with Yue Fei's illustrious military exploits.

"How about making me a king?"

As soon as this idea came out, Liu Chan nodded. For

Yue Fei's achievements, being crowned king would make the civil servants unhappy and dissatisfied.

But Liu Chan thought it was good. Who can let the civil servants fail to live up to their expectations and not have enough credit?

In the two-character king and the highest level Among the one-word kings, Liu Chan chose the latter

"King E."

Most of the princes and dukes were named according to the location of their military exploits or their hometown.

Writing these two words on rice paper, Liu Chan nodded with satisfaction.

He planned to announce it to the world during the Lantern Festival tomorrow.

As for other civil servants and generals, Liu Chan Fine and appropriate adjustments have also been made.

The former reduces the actual rewards, while the latter increases the actual rewards of gold, silver, money and land.

After all, civil servants do not lack these rewards from the palace, but they lack reputation and official positions.

Military generals are more realistic. A little, we need some visible material rewards.

After all this yesterday, it was already past midnight.

Liu Chan threw the corrected memorial on the table and said with a yawn.

"Copy it once and send it to your doorstep."

"Obey, officials."

The palace man said respectfully, and then sent the zhezhe directly out.

Because there are still a large number of people staying in the government office and looking around!

Sleep, why sleep!

Is it important to be promoted and famous?

Liu Chan yawned, I went to the palace to rest.

……

"Official family, official family!"

The rapid knocking on the door of the palace made Liu Chan quite dissatisfied. It was not yet dawn, and he had only slept for two hours, and his mind was groggy.

"What's the matter!"

He said impatiently, turning sideways and planning to continue sleeping.

"The official family is in trouble, Yue Fei rebelled!"

"If you rebel, just rebel, no big deal.

Just let Yue Fei suppress it. Liu

Chan closed his eyes and said nonchalantly.

But the next moment, he opened his eyes and sat up from the bed suddenly.

"What! Who do you think rebelled?" (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Yue Fei."

The palace man's voice came clearly

"If you spread rumors and slander, I will punish you severely!"

The palace servants at the door were full of fear.

"Officials, the younger ones just pass the news.

Mr. Zhang and others were outside, asking for an audience."

Liu Chan was stunned and stood up.

After clearing his chaotic mind, he put on his clothes and walked out of the palace, walking towards the main hall.

Along the way, the cold wind blew making Liu Chan more and more awake.

Yue Fei rebelled?

These five words Why does it sound so unbelievable?

In the main hall

"Official!"

Zhang Jun and other civil servants all had dark circles under their eyes.

Yesterday, they waited eagerly for the memorial to arrive, and immediately began to arrange for meritorious service and rewards. They finished it just a stick of incense ago, and were about to go home to replenish it while they were resting. I went to sleep and attended a banquet in the evening.

Before I even stepped out of the gate of the government office, I heard such shocking news!

"The Yue Family Army now has a total of 250,000 people.

Ordnance, armor, and weapons are all the highest equipment of the imperial court.

If Yue Fei really rebels, Bianjing will be in danger."

Prime Minister Zhang Jun quickly said with his hands raised, his face full of uneasiness.

"Officials, please move over!"

At this moment, people in the hall are panicked, and many people are frightened.

If it had been before, they would have impeached Yue Fei first regardless of whether it was true or false.

But now, they are really afraid that Yue Fei will rebel.

Because this man directly held more than half of the Song Army. With their fighting power, they really have the capital and strength to rebel.

If something unexpected happens, it will be earth-shaking!

The Song Kingdom, which has just restored stability, will be in flames of war!

"Officials, we can’t just sit back and wait for death!"

The panicked words from everyone made Liu Chan very upset.

"Silence, silence.

What is going on now? Who said Yue Fei is going to rebel?

Where is the evidence!"

His words made the hall quiet down.

Many people recovered from their panic state and calmed down a little.

Yes, who was the first to say that Yue Fei rebelled?

Everyone looked around and focused on Qin Hui. 0........

"Mr. Qin, it seems you were the one who said it just now."

Qin Hui nodded, then walked forward and said to Liu Chan, cupping his hands.

"Your Majesty, the Yue Family Army is powerful.

Now it has become a trend that cannot be lost. Liu

Chan looked at him and asked in a deep voice.

"You say Yue Fei rebelled, where is the evidence?"

Qin Hui shook his head, cupped his hands and said

"Officials and ministers never said that Yue Fei wanted to rebel.

Lieutenant Yue served his country loyally, and everyone in the court learned from it."

As soon as this statement came out, the surrounding people couldn't help but burst into uproar.

Is it a false alarm?

Many people cursed in their hearts.

"Qin Hui, what the hell are you doing!"

"I said that Lieutenant Yue will not rebel. Qin Hui, can you speak?"

Zhang Jun was just about to curse Qin Hui when he heard the other party cupped his hands and continued.

"The rebels were many generals of the Yue Family Army, who secretly wanted to repeat what happened to Chen Qiao.

In recent months, the generals of the Yue Family Army have become increasingly monolithic.

There is a sign of listening to the tune but not the propaganda!"

Chen Qiao's incident" was spoken, and there was silence.

All civil servants, including Zhang Jun and Zhao Ding, were shocked. It's cold. Add some clothes? Add a yellow robe?

This matter is not completely impossible!

"Yue Family Army, Yue Family Army."

Many people are secretly chanting these three words.

Has it really become the Yue family's army?

When the Song Dynasty was founded, Zhao Kuangyin was like this.

Many people seriously thought about the possibility of this matter.

"How can a few words prove it? Where is the evidence?"

Liu Chan looked at Qin Hui

"Officials, please take a look."

As he said that, Qin Hui ordered someone to bring a box.

Inside was an exquisite dragon robe.

"Just yesterday, this box left Bianjing and was destined for Yue Fei's military camp."

"this!"

The ministers were all in an uproar when they saw this.

The size of the dragon robe, it seems that it was made according to Yue Fei's figure, not just found randomly.

Liu Chan was silent, he didn't dare to imagine, and he didn't want to believe it.

Seeing this, Qin Hui had a low expression.

"Official, the witness is outside, do you want to see him? Liu

Chan waved his hand and asked people to come in.

"Officials, this matter has nothing to do with the general!

The general doesn't know anything, he doesn't know what's inside, it's this!"

As soon as the frightened Wang Gui entered the door, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Where did this box come from?"

Prime Minister Zhang Jun stood up and asked sternly

"The last general, the last general."Wang Gui was shocked.

"This box was ordered by Captain Yue Xiaodu."

Yue Xiaoduwei refers to Yue Fei's eldest son Yue Yun.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Jun solemnly raised his hands and said

"Officials and ministers don't want to believe it from the bottom of their hearts, but they have to be on guard.

But just a dragon robe is not enough.

I sincerely request your Majesty to send someone to summon the generals of the Yuejia Army in Bianjing City."

The words were very cryptic. In fact, they were to take control immediately and bring them to the palace.

Liu Chan waved his hands feebly, still not believing it.

But the things were right in front of him and he couldn't remain indifferent.

Soon, Wang Gui, the commander of the capital, was brought in.

He is also from Tangyin in Xiangzhou. He and Yue Fei grew up playing together, and their relationship is as close as that of blood brothers.

Two months ago, he was the main general of the Yue Family Army, second only to Yue Fei's deputy Zhang Xian.

Prime Minister Zhang Jun looked serious and continued question

"Wang Gui, let me ask you the truth.

Is there anyone in the Yue family army who wants to repeat what happened to Chen Qiao?

Have they contacted you?"

A look of pain appeared on the other party's face, and he didn't say anything. He just knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Liu Chan.

This reaction shocked the civil servants in the hall.

Damn it, could it be true?

He is now He is the commander of the capital who leads an army alone, and his status in the army is second only to Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and others.

He must not be threatened!

Soon, other generals of the Yue Family Army stationed in Bianjing were also brought in.

Most of them were naturally Yaguchi. They denied it and said it was false.

But there were also two people who admitted that there was this trend in the Yue Family Army, and someone had told them implicitly.

Fu Xuan, the leader of the loyal militia in Taihang Mountain.

Yao Zheng, an old man from the Yue Family Army, and a relative of his mother-in-law's family..

In short, the relationship between these two people and Yue Fei is unusual.

"There were many dissatisfactions among the Yue Family Army against the late Emperor and the Supreme Emperor.

He said that they had lost power and humiliated the country, but fortunately they had Commander-in-Chief Yue to take care of the country."

The late emperor was Song Huizong, and the supreme emperor was naturally Song Qinzong.

The former was buried, and the latter was being sent by the Jin Kingdom as a sign of goodwill.

"In the military, some people say that in the past few years, officials and officials would only run away.

Otherwise, Marshal Zongze would not be so angry that it would be all his fault, all the officials' fault."

Their testimony is undoubtedly a fatal blow.

These things were indeed done by Zhao Gou.

Before Liu Chan came over, his shamelessness, timidity, suspicion, and fear of the Jin people were all known to everyone.

Recently. Over the years, no one just mentioned it.

"Official, official family."

Zhang Jun's lips are trembling.

There are both witnesses and physical evidence.

No matter how much they don't believe it emotionally, rationality tells them.

Yue Fei may still be loyal, but the Yue Family Army may have turned against him.
