(Thirteen)
Yue Fei's eyes were blazing, like fireflies in the dark night. Every flicker of light was also bright. It seemed that he alone could hold on until the sky first broke through the golden light and penetrated the clouds.
"To understand it is to be wise and perseverant."
"Hinoki, cypress leaves and pine bodies, Qi water flowing through the water, cypress trees and pine boats."
"Come to think of it, Prime Minister Qin's elders also had high hopes for Prime Minister Qin."
"The water in Qishui never turns back, and the cypress paddle rocks the pine boat. Why did Prime Minister Qin give up halfway and abandon his original intention?"
Qin Hui sneered, "General Yue is both civil and military."
"Both the Prime Minister and General Yue have their own ambitions, and they are walking on different sides of the road. My original intention is to be a master, so why should I give up halfway? It is General Yue who is so stupid."
"Han Chuang studied hard for more than ten years and passed the imperial examination at the age of more than 20 years old. Isn't it just to become an official?"
"If you want to be an official, you have to climb up."
"General Yue said that I betrayed my true heart. That's because General Yue is lucky. Times make heroes. Everyone praises him. Not everyone has General Yue's good luck."
There was no mockery on Yue Fei's lips, only indifference.
"Ten years of drinking ice can't cool the warm blood, but a thousand years of dark room can be illuminated by a light."
"This is my pursuit."
"Although there are tens of thousands of people, I will go there."
"To meet today, it is better not to meet; to talk today, it is better not to talk."
"Prime Minister Qin, please come back."
Yue Fei closed his eyes and sat upright on the straw with his back straight.
Qin Hui's chest suddenly surged with frustration and urgency.
He couldn't wait to plunge this upright man who was not tainted by lust for power into the quagmire he was in.
"General Yue, you don't have to die."
"Now that your military power has been taken away and your people are imprisoned, your eldest son Yue Yun, who accompanied you in the southern and northern wars, is also implicated and imprisoned in Dali Temple. If you are willing to abandon the dark side and surrender to the light, be loyal to His Majesty, and take His Majesty's worries as yours..."
"It stinks!" Yue Fei interrupted Qin Hui and continued, "What is dark and what is light?"
"As a general, you should protect your country and regain lost territory."
"As for loyalty?"
Yue Fei glanced at Qin Hui coldly, turned around and half-taken off his prison clothes, and the words "Serve the country with loyalty" appeared clearly on his back.
"I, Yue Fei, look up to the sky and the earth, and I am unashamed."
"Being alive, I have no regrets."
"After death, there is no need to fear."
"You, Qin Hui, do you have such confidence and magnanimity?"
"Oh, I really can't stand for my Wang Nian."
"What kind of person are you to deserve to have the same old acquaintance as me?"
"It's absolutely impossible for me, Yue Fei, to surrender to the gold thief like you did."
"It's not enough to say anything. Thanks for your hard work, Prime Minister Qin is here late at night."
Only when he was imprisoned and accused by the king he was loyal to, did Yue Fei finally clear away the fog that had covered his eyes for more than ten years.
After so many years of joining the army to fight against the Jin, he finally woke up.
The imperial court of the Southern Song Dynasty could not save the miserable and wailing people in the ruined land.
Xin Zan is a transparent person.
Qin Hui wondered, how could anyone in this world not be greedy for power and not afraid of death?
He doesn't understand, so he doesn't allow such people to live in the world.
"Death is imminent, but you still don't know how to repent."
Qin Hui waved his sleeves in annoyance, turned around and left, not daring to look at the words engraved on Yue Fei's back.
No matter how you look at it, that back figure looks like you are running away.
The night wind was bleak, Qin Hui held his breath in his heart, and opened the study door aggressively.
The mess on the ground has been cleaned up by the attendants, and a scroll is spread out on the table. On the scroll is written "Beyond selfishness, there should be justice."
"Besides selfishness, there should be a bottom line."
Qin Hui was horrified and subconsciously wanted to pick up the paper, but he collapsed on the ground in fear and looked around with vigilance and fear.
"Come on, come on."
Qin Hui shouted sharply.
As soon as he finished speaking, the guards in the mansion broke into the door.
"Master Prime Minister."
Qin Huiqiang calmed down and stood still holding on to the table, "Did you see any real faces entering the study room?"
The guards all lowered their heads, "Prime Minister, my subordinates have been guarding the study room from beginning to end. They have never been seen."
The bow and snake shadow in Qin Hui's cup is trembling with fear.
"What are you making up for in the middle of the night?"
A rich figure appeared at the door of the study.
Qin Hui's wife, Mrs. Wang.
She is also Li Qingzhao’s cousin.
Wang waved her hand, and the guards filed out.
"An outsider entered the study." Qin Hui said firmly with lingering fear.
Wang frowned, "I personally cleaned your study with my own eyes, and I also left the lock on the door."
Qin Hui held the scroll and his heart was beating fast.
"I saw that this scroll was splashed with water stains. You always like it tightly, so I quickly unfolded it and put it on the table to dry."
"You can't even read your own words? Don't be suspicious."
Although Wang scorned the words on the scroll, she could not resist Qin Hui's constant observation and recitation.
The Wang family is in a state of decline, no better than it was then.
Now, everyone has to rely on Qin Hui.
So, she took it seriously.
Qin Hui was stunned. He subconsciously stretched out his fingers and rubbed the scroll with his fingertips.
Did he have a guilty conscience?
Even though he was in Dali Temple Prison, he still thought that the old lady was still alive, so he took her back to support her.
But the moment he looked at the words, there was only endless fear.
No, he didn't want to see the old lady.
In front of Yue Fei, he can be confident and impassioned.
In front of the old lady, he might not even have the courage to raise his head.
Could it be that this series of coincidences were hinting to him that Yue Fei should not die?
"You haven't said why you went to Dali Temple Prison so late at night."
Seeing that Qin Hui was absent-minded, Wang raised her voice, "Did there be new instructions from the palace, or did the Jin court send news?"
"Isn't it already certain that Yue Fei will be executed?"
"The Jin people hate Yue Fei. Yue Fei must be tortured in order to eliminate the hatred in the Jin people's hearts. Don't forget to mention Dali Temple."
Qin Hui felt unhappy for no reason.
Hearing the words from Wang's mouth, he suddenly realized that he was indeed a shameless person who wanted to please the Jin people and betray the country for glory.
"I'm afraid Yue Fei has an old relationship with the benefactor of my youth."
Qin Hui confessed.
Wang lost her voice, "You don't want to let Yue Fei go, do you?"
"Have you forgotten that after the disgrace of Jingkang, we were slaves and servants in Jinting for three years and were bullied by others?"
"If we cannot satisfy the Jin people, we will all die."
"Don't be stupid!"
“How difficult it is to get to where we are today!”
Qin Hui sighed, "I know."
"Yue Fei must die."
"But, after all, he has an old relationship with his benefactor, so let him die happily."
"The most important thing among Jin people is the results."
"Yue Fei's death and the peace talks between Song and Jin were also a great achievement."
Wang:......
"It's late at night, you should go back and rest first."
"I'll think about some more things."
Wang sneered, "Mediocre people bother themselves."
One night passed, the news spread throughout the streets and alleys of Lin'an that Yue Fei had been secretly imprisoned. His Majesty and the Prime Minister wanted to execute the patriotic general on Luozhi charges to please the Jin people. Their words were well-founded and highly credible.
Qin Hui, who had a sleepless night:...
Zhao Gou, who was drunk and dreaming:...
What is this thing called?
