Chapter 336: The flag of loyalty and courage is given to an inhumane person?
"I am stupid, please let the officials make it clear!"
"Haha..." Zhao Ji smiled slightly, naturally he couldn't tell Yue Fei everything about his unforeseen events and his far-reaching intentions.
Even if you tell him, he may not believe it.
Zhao Ji only explained the simple truth to Yue Fei:
"I am keeping the envoys of the Xia State and the woman who was presented by the Emperor of Xia Li Qianshun. This will distract Xia's enemy troops and bring great benefits to our Song Dynasty. It will also allow our officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty to attack Xixia in the future." Reduce casualties in battle!"
"Ah?!" Yue Fei, who was riding a horse, kept pace with Zhao Guan's family. After hearing Zhao Guan's words, he couldn't help but exclaimed.
Zhao Ji said again: "Pengju, do you know who the woman that Emperor Xia presented to you is?"
"This..." Yue Fei hesitated for two or three breaths and then said:
"Chen Fei was ordered to lead his troops to collect the weapons and war horses of the Xia envoy's hundreds of cavalry guards outside the city. Chen Fei was ordered to invite out the people in the carriages and sedans brought by the Xia envoy. He heard the Xia soldiers and generals talking about the emperor of the Xia state. Concubine Cao..."
Zhao Ji interrupted Yue Fei's words and said leisurely:
"Pengju, are you hiding something?"
"I heard a secret report: Pengju asked the people in Xia's carriage and sedan to come out, but they didn't want to come out. Instead, Pengju, you stepped forward and tore off the curtain that was blocking the carriage!"
Yue Fei was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. He never expected that the Zhao Guan family would know everything about what happened outside the city two quarters of an hour ago through spies.
He hurriedly defended:
"Chen Fei didn't mean to hide anything from the officials. It's just that Chen Fei thought it was a trivial matter and didn't report all the details to the officials."
Zhao Ji nodded slightly to express his understanding.
"I tell you the truth, the person in the sedan chair is indeed Cao, the imperial concubine of Xia Emperor Li Qianshun!"
"Ah?!" Yue Fei was shocked again. Although he had some psychological expectations before this, he was really surprised when he personally got confirmation from Zhao Guan's family.
"When Xia Emperor Li Qianshun reluctantly parted ways with his wife and offered his concubine Cao to my Song camp, Pengju, what do you think of this?"
"This..." Yue Fei was asked by Zhao Guan's family and didn't know how to answer for a while.
However, he still said bluntly:
"In order to beg for peace between Xia and Song Dynasty, Xia Emperor Li Qianshun could do such a humiliating thing! It really shocked the humble minister Yue Fei!"
"However, Guan Wanwan cannot agree to the Xia Kingdom's begging for peace just because of his love for the beauty! Now is the God-given opportunity for me, the Song Dynasty, to destroy Xia!"
"Not to be missed!"
Zhao Ji nodded and agreed with Yue Fei's words.
Although, he cannot tell Yue Fei that the imperial concubine Cao who Li Qianshun dedicated to me will give birth to the Zhongxing Li Renxiao of Xixia next year;
However, he pitied Yue Fei, who had been loyal and brave all his life, and still wanted to tell him face to face some of the truth that could be told now.
"I tell Pengju the truth:
"I will never accept Xia's begging for peace, but I will still keep the envoys and guards sent by Xia, as well as the imperial concubine Cao Shi sent by Xia Emperor Li Qianshun, in my Song Dynasty military camp Internally. In this way, the morale of the enemy troops can be better broken down and the hearts of the Xia people can be shaken..."
Yue Fei nodded heavily at first, deeply convinced.
He could understand the deep meaning of Zhao Guanjia's words.
He guessed that the Zhao Guan family might also want to use the captured Jin King of Xia Kingdom, Richard Brother, to break down the resistance of the Xia Kingdom's defenders, and at the same time shake the morale of the enemy...
He immediately shook his head again, worried that by doing this, the reputation of Emperor Zhao Guan's family would be damaged.
Yue Fei reminded hurriedly and carefully:
"Chen Fei, I kindly ask the officials not to visit Xia Kingdom's imperial concubine Cao, nor to keep her with them, lest they tarnish the reputation of the officials!"
"Therefore, Chen Fei still suggests that the officials should send the Cao family back to the Xia Kingdom!"
"Hahaha..." Zhao Ji laughed and said decisively:
"I will never send back the Xia Kingdom's Princess Cao who can humiliate the Xia Emperor Li Qianshun to death!"
"My reputation is nothing compared to the lives of thousands of soldiers of our Song Dynasty."
Yue Fei, who was walking hand in hand with the royal family, was in awe after hearing this!
He looked at Zhao Guan's family sitting in the open carriage, his eyes shining with excitement and admiration.
"I have given up my will! Peng Ju will not talk about this matter anymore!"
"The humble minister Yue Fei obeys the order."
…………
Zhao Ji took Yue Fei, who didn't know the purpose of the holy drive's tour, and quickly left Nancheng under the protection of the mighty imperial city officials...
After leaving Nancheng, the imperial driver and his party went out of a Song Army company camp stationed outside Nancheng;
Zhao Ji and Yue Fei both saw from a distance, more than 200 steps ahead, a group of thirty-one Song cavalry under the banner of the Song Dynasty, waiting eagerly...
Zhao Ji smiled and asked Yue Fei, the escort beside him:
"Pengju, can you clearly see the words on the three flags held by the Song army in front?"
Yue Fei, who was riding a horse, widened his eyes, looked ahead, and replied truthfully:
"Wei Chen Yue Fei can clearly see that the largest flag is the military flag of our Song Dynasty official family, but the other two smaller flags cannot be clearly seen because the characters on them are slightly smaller."
"However, before that, my humble minister Yue Fei was fortunate enough to receive a rare telescope given by the government. Please allow me to take out the telescope and take a closer look."
After Zhao Ji nodded in agreement, Yue Fei immediately reached out and took off the telescope given by the official who was always with him from his belt.
Yue Fei put the monocular telescope in front of his right eye...
At the same time, Zhao Ji stretched out his hand in the open carriage, and the eunuch waiting beside the carriage immediately understood and handed the official monocular telescope into the palm of Zhao Guan's hand.
At this moment, Zhao Ji and Yue Fei both set up monocular telescopes and placed them in front of their eyes, looking at Zhe Keqiu, who was more than 200 steps away, and the thirty escort cavalry he brought with him.
.
Yue Fei exclaimed while looking forward with his telescope:
"Chen Fei has clearly seen the other two flags of the Song army in front."
Zhao Ji smiled slightly when he heard this. In fact, he didn't need a telescope to see that the Song army in front was only the future Song Dynasty rebel general and the thirty cavalry guards he came with.
"Chen Fei saw that in addition to our military flag of the Song Dynasty, there were two other slightly smaller flags. One was embroidered with the word 'Zhe', and the other red flag was embroidered with the word 'loyalty and bravery' with gold silk thread!"
Zhao Ji listened to Yue Fei's words with a complicated expression on his face.
At this time, Yue Fei's left eye was slightly closed, and he concentrated on looking forward through the telescope with his right eye. He did not notice the complicated expression on Zhao Guan's family.
Zhao Ji also looked through the telescope and saw the flag of "loyalty and bravery" that Yue Fei mentioned.
In Zhao Ji's mind, the memory of the original owner, Song Huizong Zhao Ji, continued, and he was too familiar with this "Loyal and Brave" flag.
Because this flag of loyalty and bravery was given to Zhe Keqiu by the original owner of Zhao Ji's body, Song Huizong, during the Zhenghe period, after his brother Zhe Keqiu became magistrate of Fuzhou and made many military exploits.
Zhao Ji knew that in history, Zhe Keqiu, who later dropped gold, was born in the northwest of the Zhe family. His father was Zhe Kexing, a famous general in the Song Dynasty who fought against Xixia, and his brother was a man who inherited his father's legacy and continued to fight against Xia.
If you know the state, the state can be greatly reduced.
If Zhe Keda hadn't died young due to illness during the Zhenghe period, it would really have been impossible for this rebellious general in history, Zhe Keqiu, to inherit his brother's legacy and succeed him as governor of the prefecture...
However, after Zhe Keqiu continued his father's and elder brother's work, during the Zhenghe period of the Song Dynasty and now for the third year of peace, he was stationed on the border to defend the country and fought against the Xia enemies in several large and small battles, and his performance was considered very heroic.
However, only history can verify whether Zhe Keqiu is worthy of the word "loyalty" on that flag!
When Zhao Ji looked through the telescope at the "Loyal and Brave" flag given to Zhe Keqiu by the original owner of his body, Song Huizong, he felt something bad in his heart.
The original owner's calligraphy and painting skills are really good, but his skills in recognizing and employing people are really not that good!
The word "loyalty and bravery" on that flag was lost.
The word "loyalty and bravery" was embroidered on the red brocade flag by the famous embroidery workers of Bianjing, the original owner of the Song Dynasty Huizong. He spent several days carefully embroidering it on the red brocade flag using gold-drawn gold thread!
The time traveler Zhao Ji put down his telescope and threw it to the eunuch waiting beside Si Yu, and he began to think deeply:
The flag of loyalty and courage is given to an inhumane person?
yes!
Neither!
There is a twist in history. Although after the Jingkang disaster, the Fuzhou City where he was stationed was besieged by the Jin army led by Wanyan Loushi and was starved of food and aid. He was forced to surrender the gold and also led his troops to help the Jin army attack the Song Dynasty.
, even after the Jin people deposed Liu Yu, the Jin State was afraid that Ke Qiu would change due to the resentment of his soldiers, and poisoned him to death, so that this rebellious boy did not end up well; it can be said to be a 'little happy'!
However, I am a time traveler and I know all this in history in advance. Will I let history repeat itself?
