Reborn Yue Feizhi returns my rivers and mountains

After retreating from the court the next day, Yue Fei came to Zhao Ding's residence alone and asked someone to pass him in. Soon someone came out and introduced him.

Arriving at the hall, Yue Fei was arranged by the servants to serve tea at the guest seat and said: "Young Master General Yue, my lord said that there are still two memorials that have not been approved. General, please take care of yourself for the time being. My lord will come later." Yue Fei nodded. Smile.

After the servants left, Yue Fei sat on a chair and looked around. He saw that Zhao Ding was the prime minister, but the hall was extremely simple. The tables and chairs were a bit old and had been used for many years. He thought that Zhao Ding came to meet the master of this courtyard. The tables and chairs on display are all still usable and have not been replaced.Compared with Zhang Jun's residence yesterday, it is really different.

There is a nave hanging behind the main seat at the top. The first couplet reads: The strong bamboos are high-spirited, and the erect posture still has the spirit of ancient wisdom; the second couplet reads: The orchid is lonely, and the simplicity remains unwavering.In the middle is a picture of strong bamboos and orchids. The vigorous brushwork makes the lonely and elegant bamboos and orchids appear vividly on the paper. It complements the central hall even more.Yue Fei couldn't help but nodded.

While Yue Fei was watching, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the back hall. He knew it was Zhao Ding who was coming, so he stood up to greet him.

After a while, Zhao Ding was seen walking out. He was wearing a light cyan uniform, with patches visible on both sleeves. He was wearing a blue-grey commissary scarf, but it was a bit old. He was wearing a pair of cloth shoes at his feet, and the toes were actually worn. gray.Looking at his appearance, he has a square face with two slightly raised eyebrows, small but shining eyes, a straight nose, a square mouth, long hands and feet, and a tall and straight figure, which makes him stand out.

When Zhao Ding saw Yue Fei, he changed his serious expression into a smile and said, "General Yue came to Humble House today, is there anything wrong?"

Yue Fei hurriedly replied: "The general has been here for several days. Every day he is summoned by the Holy Master to discuss countermeasures. I have always wanted to come and visit the Privy Council, but it is difficult to find time. Today, when the court is dismissed early, I want to come and ask you for some political advice. I don't want to invite you." Come here, my hands are empty again, I hope you will forgive me." After saying this, he bowed.

Zhao Ding laughed loudly after hearing this and said: "You can come here empty-handed. I am acting as the Privy Council for the time being. If you come to see me with a gift, wouldn't it be considered a bribe? You can be casual with me, no need to be formal." After saying this, he After sitting down on the main seat, he ordered the servant to bring new tea and brought it to Yue Fei's seat.

After the two sat down, Zhao Ding said: "General Yue is young, I will ask you to call you Shengpengju. I heard that you are a disciple of Zongshuai. I also met with Zongshuai many times when I was in Tokyo. I was very surprised. I admire him as a person, but I haven’t seen him in these years. I wonder how Commander-in-Chief is doing?”

Yue Fei replied: "My lord, my mentor suffered from malignant sores on his back the year before last. Although he escaped death, his health was deteriorating, so he resigned and returned to his hometown. In the past two years, I have also exchanged many letters with my mentor. , I know that the old man is now living in simplicity in Wuzhou Township, cultivating his moral character, but he is still peaceful."

Zhao Ding sighed and said: "It's a pity that Commander-in-Chief Zong is old. If he could be ten years younger and be stationed in Tokyo, how could the Jin people march straight into the Central Plains and trample on them?"

Yue Fei smiled bitterly and said: "I'm afraid that even when my mentor was there, it would be difficult to change. It just made the Jin people come a little later. That day, the two thieves Wang and Huang controlled the government, and my mentor contacted the righteous men of the two rivers, and they had already made arrangements. The Jin people were preparing to be driven back outside the Great Wall, but the Holy Emperor was deceived by the two thieves and did not use the mentor's plan, so that the success was in vain."

"Oh, it's true. The two thieves Wang and Huang caused a lot of trouble. After Zong Shuai left, they even used a trash like Du Chong to open the Yellow River, causing the people in the Central Plains and Huaihe River to suffer from floods. According to my opinion See, this disaster was caused by me, or it will be difficult to repair for more than a hundred years in the future. What is even more hateful is that this thief actually used his body to surrender to the enemy, which almost destroyed the morale of our court." Zhao Ding was furious. After Pingping said this, he suddenly asked: "I heard that you went to Jiankang alone and shot Du Chong in the street to eliminate traitors for the country. Can you tell me in detail what happened?"

Yue Fei quickly told Zhao Ding what happened that day when he, Lu Zhishen and Wu Song entered Jiankang City to assassinate Du Chong. When he heard that he shot four arrows in a row, first killing the guards and then killing Du Chong, Zhao Ding jumped up. He shouted: "Good shot! If you don't kill such a traitor in the street, how can you quell the resentment of the people? It's a shame that I am a scholar, otherwise I would kill him with a sword!"

After saying that, he stood up and bowed deeply to Yue Fei. Yue Fei quickly stood up and returned the bow, only to hear Zhao Ding say: "Pengju, this bow is for the people of the world Zhao. As a general, you have risked your life and acted with righteousness." The country deserves this gift to eradicate traitors."

Yue Fei said quickly: "I am a brave warrior. I only know how to dedicate my blood to the people of the world. I have long ignored personal life and death, honor and disgrace. As the saying goes, 'No one has died in life since ancient times, and his loyalty will be remembered by history.'"

Zhao Ding held up his palm and praised: "What a saying: 'Who has never died in life since ancient times, and his loyalty will be remembered in history.' As a minister, you should be loyal to the emperor and serve the country. Why should you fear life and death? A hundred years later, the desolate bones are nowhere to be found, but there are no traces in the history. You must leave your name! In the past, I only thought of you as a brave general who could fight for the country. Now it seems that Zhao has underestimated you. After hearing this, I know that your ambition is not small. Would you like to tell me in detail? "

Yue Fei composed himself, and then said slowly: "I am from a commoner background. I was lucky enough to be appreciated by my mentor, and won the first prize in martial arts at school. Unexpectedly, I was jealous of Zhang Bangchang, and ended up dormant in the countryside. I was depressed for a while, but Fortunately, I have a good mother and a good wife at home who encourage me so that I don't fall into depravity. After Jingkang, I followed my mentor to conquer all over the world. I saw that my family and country were broken, and the people were in dire straits. I couldn't bear to see anything. Since Yue was born in troubled times, he also learned a lot of skills. , how can we face such a scene and remain indifferent? From then on, I made an oath to regain the lost land in my lifetime, drive all the Jin people outside the Great Wall, and return peace and joy to the people of our Song Dynasty. There will be no more hungry and cold people in the world. If If we can go further, we will restore the prosperity of the Han and Tang Dynasties, so that the barbarians will tremble when they hear the name of the Song Dynasty, and they will not dare to invade!"

Yue Fei became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice gradually became louder. Zhao Ding's eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened, admiring the young man's ambition in his heart.Until Yue Fei finished speaking, Zhao Ding was also infected by his ambition and said excitedly: "If there is such a time, if Zhao is not dead, he will be the general who leads the horse into the stirrup to show off this unparalleled feat!"

After hearing this, Yue Fei hurriedly said: "How can such an unparalleled feat be achieved by the next person? In battles on the battlefield, victory or defeat depends on the strength of the country. Now that our country has been weak for a long time, Tong Guan conquered the Liao Kingdom twice. It has almost wiped out the country's decades of accumulation. In addition, there are now Jin people raging outside, bandits running rampant inside, and treacherous ministers disrupting the government from time to time. If we can't hold the land south of the Yangtze River and let the people recuperate for a few years, I'm afraid It’s unsustainable.”

After hearing this, Zhao Ding nodded and said: "This is exactly what Zhao is worried about. It's just that there are so many things, I don't know where to start."

Yue Fei smiled and said: "This is what I mean when I come to visit you today. As long as you can live in the court for a long time, everything will fall into place naturally. But you must know that people who are high will become more jealous, and those who live in a clean world will be resented. I am just afraid that you will do it for me." He was harmed by traitors and ended up with the ending of 'died before leaving the battlefield, which makes the hero burst into tears'."

Zhao Ding was a little surprised when he heard this and asked, "I wonder what Pengju meant by what he said?"

Yue Fei smiled and said something, but he kept Zhao Ding in his position for a long time, worked hard to govern, and laid a solid foundation for the future.
