Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Chapter 95 Yue Fei leaves

On the tenth day of August, Zhao Chen became the throne for more than a month!

The sky is not yet bright, and the morning morning has already begun! Several ministers of civil and military affairs discussed the affairs of various places for a while, and when the sun was faintly rising, Zhe Keqiu suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

Zhao Chen said: "If you have anything to do with Zhe Aiqing, just tell me!"

Zhe Keqiu said: "Your Majesty, Yue Fei, Wang Gui, and Zhang Xian, the duo in front of the palace, have great martial arts skills and hard work! I heard that they were the three who escorted His Majesty all the way to Tongguan outside Xiangzhou City! With their martial arts and contributions, Serving as Marquis of Yu in front of the palace may be a bit of a shame! Therefore, my minister Baozuo Yue Fei is recruiting envoys for the Henan Recruiting Department, and Wang Gui and Zhang Xian are deputy envoys for the Henan Recruiting Department!"

Zhao Chen was taken aback, and said, "Henan Recruitment Department? When was this established? Why haven't I heard of this name?"

Zhe Keqiu said: "Kang Wang's traitors occupied Kaifeng, Shangqiu and other places a few months ago, and Kaifeng was originally the capital of our Song Dynasty, and Shangqiu was the accompanying capital. Naturally, these places cannot be occupied by Kang Wang forever, so I decided to set up Henan. Discuss the rebels and take back Kaifeng, Shangqiu and other places! This matter will be reported to His Majesty today!"

After Zhe Keqiu said this, Zhao Chen immediately understood what Zhe Keqiu meant! It can be said that this is to drive Yue Fei, Wang Gui, and Zhang Xian away from his side!

Although he had expected this day to come, at this moment, Zhao Chen's mood was still a bit complicated! Since arriving in Xiangzhou, the three of Yue Fei have been by his side! After fleeing from Tongguan, the three of them also followed him closely! After going to Dasanguan and Hanzhong, the three of them are still by their side! It can be said that in the past six months, the three of them are the closest people to him! He stayed with the three for the longest time! If the three of them leave, there will be no one close to him in the Han Palace, and all the guards sent by Zhe Keqiu will be left by his side!

"Your Majesty, it must not be done at this time! The three of Yue Fei only have some martial arts skills, and they have never led troops to fight! The Henan recruiting department that Lord Zhe said is to crusade against the rebels of King Kang and take back Kaifeng, Shangqiu and other places. The three of Yue Fei only I'm afraid I won't be able to do it!" Li Gang stood up at this moment and said.

Li Gang did not intend to let the three of Yue Fei leave Zhao Chen's side, at least he did not agree to drive all three of them away from Zhao Chen's side, at least one or two people should be left by Zhao Chen's side! In Li Gang's view, there are many dangers in the Han Palace, and there must be cronies staying to protect Zhao Chen's life!

"I heard that the three of Yue Fei often discuss the art of war with His Majesty in the palace! Since the three of them can discuss the art of war, they can lead troops to fight! Master Li is too worried!" Zhe Keqiu said.

"Before His Majesty ascended the throne, he was assassinated by people from all corners of the country. At that time, these three people protected His Majesty! What if His Majesty is assassinated again after these three people leave?" Li Gang said.

"Lord Li, don't worry, I have strengthened the guards of the palace, and sent many masters to the palace! From now on, His Majesty will never encounter such a thing again! In addition, I live in front of the palace, and from now on I will Looking at the palace every night, I won't let the assassin succeed again!" Zhe Keqiu said.

"Master Zhe, the Henan recruiting department you established, how many soldiers and horses are there, and how much food and grass are given every year?" Li Gang said.

"Now there are no soldiers, no food!" Zhe Keqiu said.

"Without soldiers and horses, without food and grass, and only three recruiters, how can we recover Kaifeng, Shangqiu and other places?" Li Gang said angrily.

"There are rebels everywhere in Henan! After the three generals of Yue arrive in Henan, they can naturally recruit rebels to take back Kaifeng, Shangqiu and other places! As for food and grass, they can be searched locally! There are many people in Henan, and they look forward to His Majesty's arrival day and night. They will naturally support His Majesty's army!" Zhe Keqiu said.

"Zhe Keqiu, without soldiers, horses, food and grass, I'm afraid you don't have the ability to recover Kaifeng and Shangqiu, right?" Li Gang glared at Zhe Keqiu, and said.

"I believe General Yue and the three of them will definitely be able to accomplish this!" Zhe Keqiu said.

"The area around Chang'an and Tongguan is occupied by the Jurchens, how do they get there?" Li Gang asked again.

"I heard that the Jurchens of the Chang'an and Tongguan generations can't stop doing business. General Yue and the three can pretend to be businessmen and go to Henan!" Zhe Keqiu said.

"I will never agree to this matter!" Li Gang said.

"The establishment of the Henan Recruitment Department is a matter of my Privy Council. As generals, Yue Fei and the three are also under the jurisdiction of my Privy Council! Although you are the prime minister, Mr. Li, you can't control my Privy Council, right?" Zhe Keqiu sneered.

Li Gang still wanted to argue, but Zhao Chen suddenly said: "There is no need to talk about this matter again! Zhe Aiqing is the privy envoy, since it has been decided, then follow what Zhe Aiqing said! From today on, the three of Yue Fei will be Recruitment envoys in Henan! If you have nothing else to do, retreat to the court!"

Li Gang said anxiously: "Your Majesty, how can this be so?"

What can be asked is a big laugh, and said: "Your Majesty has already made a decision, Master Li, do you still object?"

Li Gang suddenly fell to his knees and said, "Your Majesty! Absolutely not!"

Zhao Chen shook his head and said, "Come here, help Master Li up! Let's retreat!"

At that moment, someone helped Li Gang up, and Zhao Chen left the Hall of Supreme Harmony surrounded by a group of guards! Li Gang looked at Zhao Chen's back and was dazed. He couldn't believe that Zhao Chen agreed to send all three of Yue Fei to other places!

*** ***

The morning sun was exceptionally bright, and when the sun shone on Zhao Chen's body, Zhao Chen couldn't help but slightly squinted his eyes! He is waiting for the arrival of the three of Yue Fei!

Sure enough, not long after, the voice of reporting came from outside!

"Come in!" Zhao Chen said flatly.

Yue Fei, Wang Gui, and Zhang Xian walked in together from the outside, and the three knelt down on the ground, saying: "See Your Majesty!"

"Get up! You already know what happened early?" Zhao Chen said.

"Yes! Your Majesty, we heard that Zhe Keqiu wants to drive the three of us away from His Majesty! This matter must never happen! If we leave here, who will protect His Majesty? If Your Majesty is assassinated by an assassin again , what should we do then?" Yue Fei said as the three stood up.

"Don't worry, since being assassinated twice in a row, Zhe Keqiu has attached great importance to the defense of the Han Palace! In the past few months, I have never been assassinated again, and no assassin has entered the palace again! Now even At night, there are thousands of guards patrolling around the Han Palace and the Han Palace! There are at least 300 guards with high martial arts skills stationed next to the Qianqing Palace alone. The guards and soldiers! If something happens, they can rush out immediately! It is said that there are no common people living in the houses around the Han Palace, and all the 'common people' are soldiers from the Zhejia Army pretending to be soldiers. When we rush to the Han Palace, the soldiers of the Zhe Family Army will find out! Zhe Keqiu wants to coerce the emperor to make the princes, so he naturally attaches great importance to the life of me, the emperor, and he will never make the same mistakes again Speaking of which, this is the first time I've heard of someone using so many troops to protect a person!" Zhao Chen said with a mocking smile on his face.

"But, Your Majesty, we don't want to leave your surroundings!" Yue Fei said.

"What's the use of you staying in the palace besides protecting my safety?" Zhao Chen looked at Yue Fei and said coldly.

"This... this..." Yue Fei stayed there, Wang Gui and Zhang Xian didn't know how to answer like this!

"I told you a long time ago that I want you to go to other places to accumulate strength for me, so that I can deal with it in the future! Have you forgotten what I said? Now that the opportunity comes, are you going to shrink back? ?” Zhao Chen said.

"But! Your Majesty, there are many dangers in Hanzhong, and it is only possible to be disobedient to His Majesty! The ministers are really worried about His Majesty's safety, and they really don't want to leave His Majesty at this time!" Yue Fei gritted his teeth.

He also knew that what Zhao Chen said was right, but he was so reluctant to let him leave Zhao Chen at this moment!

"Yue Fei! Kneel down!" Zhao Chen suddenly shouted coldly.

Yue Fei was startled, and hurriedly fell to his knees on the ground! Wang Gui and Zhang Xian looked at each other, then fell to their knees on the ground!

Zhao Chen stood up. He is only eleven years old, but he has been practicing martial arts, and he has an excellent bloodline passed down by the royal family for more than a hundred years, so he is much taller than ordinary teenagers! Coupled with his dragon robe, he is even more mighty!

At this moment Zhao Chen suddenly picked up a sword from the table! The whole body of this sword is black, three feet three inches long, simple and elegant in shape! Even if the sword is placed there, there is still a penetrating coldness blowing towards the face! This sword is exactly Zhao Chen's seven-star Longyuan sword!

Zhao Chen lifted the sword and put it in Yue Fei's hand!

"Ah! Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword!" Yue Fei was shocked! Wang Gui and Zhang Xian next to him also showed incredible expressions on their faces!

"This sword was originally the sword of Emperor Taizu, and later became the sword of Emperor Taizong! After I left Kaifeng, I did not carry other weapons, only this sword! Now I hand this sword into your hands !” said Zhao Chen.

"Your Majesty! Absolutely not!" Yue Fei said hastily.

"Why not?" Zhao Chen said.

"This sword is the emperor's sword, I dare not wear this sword!" Yue Fei said.

"That day in the Kaifeng Palace, when I got this sword, I swore that I would use it to recover the Great Song Dynasty! Now I am not giving this sword to you, but lending it to you temporarily! Let you temporarily Take this sword and complete the important task of recovering the country for me!" Zhao Chen said.

"That's not allowed! I'm a courtier, how can I wear the Seven Star Dragon Yuan Sword?" Yue Fei said.

Zhao Chen smiled and said, "Then I will change my title. From today on, this sword will be the Shangfang Sword! I will give you the Shangfang Sword and let you be the imperial envoy. You are willing!"

Yue Fei was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "Since it is Shang Fang's sword, of course I will take it!"

Zhao Chen nodded, and said: "Zhe Keqiu appoints you as recruiters in Henan, and you don't have to go to Henan, and you are not going to recruit Kang Wang's rebels, but to accumulate strength for me! When necessary, You have to go back to Hanzhong and kill Zhe Keqiu's rebels for me! I believe that Wang De and Li Gang will also be expelled from Zhe Keqiu in a short time. At that time, you should contact Li Gang secretly and listen to Li Gang! Li Gang is resourceful! Wushuang, he will seize the opportunity and tell you when to return!"

Yue Fei said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, if Master Li Gang Li leaves Hanzhong, we will contact him as soon as possible!"

Zhao Chen said: "How are you going to accumulate strength?"

Yue Fei said: "We want to train an elite army for you, Your Majesty! Although we didn't give us soldiers, money, and food, we still have the confidence to train an elite army! Your Majesty taught us many military techniques, and there are also recruiting soldiers , The method of training soldiers! We will do as His Majesty said!"

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "Very good! Get up!"

The three of Yue Fei finally stood up. Yue Fei looked at the Seven-Star Longyuan Sword in his hand, and put the Seven-Star Longyuan Sword on his waist very solemnly!

Zhao Chen looked at the three of them, thought for a moment, and suddenly knelt down!

"Ah! Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Yue Fei and the three were taken aback, and the three hurriedly knelt down together!

"That day in Xiangzhou, it was you who protected me from Xiangzhou. Speaking of which, you have saved my life! Moreover, this saving grace was not just once! Later, when I was in Han Palace, you saved me again! I will always remember the grace of saving lives in my heart! If Zhao Chen really controls the state affairs in the future, he will never forget the kindness of that day! In the future, if I really become the emperor, I will make you all prosperous and rich forever!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, those are the duties of a courtier, and it is our duty to save you!" Yue Fei said in fear.

Yue Fei never felt that he was kind to Zhao Chen. He even felt that Zhao Chen was injured because of his own ineffective protection. For this reason, he felt extremely guilty!

"However, I bowed down to you today not because of your life-saving grace!" Zhao Chen said with a smile on his face.

"Why is that?" Yue Fei asked.

"I have been with you for such a long time. We are together every day. I have already treated you as big brothers! When I was in the palace that day, I had no brothers and sisters, and I lived very lonely! Later, with you three big brothers, I cherish it very much in my heart! The three elder brothers are going to leave me today, and I bow down to them, so what is that?" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty!" At this moment, the three of Yue Fei had tears in their eyes! Although Zhao Chen occasionally called them "big brothers", they never expected Zhao Chen to really treat them as big brothers! Now that Zhao Chen said such words, they were really excited to the extreme!

"After the three elder brothers leave, I will pray day and night in the Han Palace, hoping that you will return soon! I hope this time will not be too long!" Zhao Chen said.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will return as soon as possible to drive out the traitors!" Yue Fei gritted his teeth.

"Very good! Get up! Let's have lunch together, and I'll see you off!" Zhao Chen laughed.
