Yue Fei looked at Liu Qi in disbelief.
When the emperor acted before, he had told himself:
Everyone is changing, everyone will change.
So even if Yue Yun wanted to come to An'an first, and even if Li Wa gave money to Huang Yanjie, he would just turn a blind eye.
From Yue Fei's point of view, he is also changing, becoming able to keep up with everyone else's pace.
Zhao Mi can forget it, Zhang Jun and his people have always done things like this, and Yue Fei can still accept it.
But Uncle Liu Xin...this son of an aristocratic family, this person who follows the rules,
I'm going to break the rules today too.
Did they become too fast, or did they become too slow?
Yue Fei didn't know, he just looked at Liu Qi:
"Uncle Xin...you..."
Before Liu Qi could speak, Zhao Mi seemed to have remembered something and cursed:
"Uncle Liu Xin! Stop competing with me for this job! Since you have rejected Yang Yizhong, get away as soon as possible! This matter has nothing to do with you!"
Ignoring him, Liu Qi said to Yue Fei:
"Pengju, listen to my advice. Leave this matter alone and leave the person to me."
"You know how I am... I will not take the princess's life. I will find a secluded place for her to keep her safe for the rest of her life."
"As for Lin'an...she shouldn't have come, and even if she came, she shouldn't have come as a princess."
After hearing his words, Zhao Mi became a little brighter...
yes!
It doesn’t have to be murder!
If you hide the princess, wouldn't the effect be the same?
To put it bluntly, this way you can have one more life-saving sign in your hand.
He looked at Liu Qi, admiring this man's quick thinking, but also secretly cursing that he had overestimated this man.
If he wasn't completely sure, how could he be willing to get involved in this matter!
Thinking of this, he also took a step back: "Pengju, just do as Uncle Liu Xin said, you hand the person over to me... We, this matter is not ugly to everyone."
Yue Fei looked behind him... Princess Roufu didn't know why she took so long. She kept sticking her head out to look. In this way, the two of them happened to meet each other's eyes.
"I don't know why you two want to take the princess's life, but if a civilian breaks the law, he must be tried in court, not to mention...she is the blood of the late emperor!"
"My two brothers acted like this, please forgive me for not obeying my orders!"
He didn't speak loudly, but he was extremely determined.
Nodding towards Zhao Mi, Liu Qi grabbed Yue Fei's wrist and took him aside:
"According to the recent behavior of the officials, Song and Jin should be fighting instead of making peace."
Yue Fei's eyes lit up, but he didn't know what this matter had to do with the princess.
"This...is a good thing."
"It's a good thing!" Liu Qi looked at him, "But Pengju..."
"Have you ever thought about why the golden man let the princess back?"
"I've asked about this before. The princess escaped on her own."
"Escape..." Liu Qi shook his head, "Five Kingdoms City is thousands of miles away from Lin'an. How can a weak woman like her come across mountains and rivers?"
"She was released on purpose, on purpose!"
Seeing Yue Fei thinking, Liu Qi struck while the iron was hot: "You know the temperament of the official family. When the princess comes back, she will tell the fate of the late emperor and all the emperors in the north. Are you sure that the official family will dare to fight again?"
"This is one and the other... Even if the officials are determined to fight, the story of Princess Roufu has spread throughout Jiangnan... Do you think the officials would want to see her come back and taint the royal family? reputation?”
"Thirdly, it's not just the officials... the people and gentry in the south of the Yangtze River are unwilling to fight anymore. If the story of Princess Roufu is proven true, won't everyone be in danger? How can they dare to have the intention of the Northern Expedition!"
"In terms of emotion and reason, in terms of the overall situation and the world, Pengju... there is no personal hatred this time, it is all for the sake of public service."
Is there anyone in the world who wants to fight back more than Yue Fei?
No, no, no!
Liu Qi knew that he had thrown out a huge bait. Yue Peng had worked hard for ten years, and there was no way he would give up because of this.
The interests and risks have been presented, and the details... Liu Qi doesn't think he has a reason to refuse.
But he still refused.
Although he was slower, and although his expression was struggling, he still refused.
"Does the official mean it?"
"Why is Pengju so stupid! How could the officials say such a thing openly!"
So he was very decisive: "Princess, not guilty."
Liu Qi looked at Yue Fei, thinking that he was familiar enough with this person.
Only then did I realize that I never seemed to understand him.
"The Northern Expedition is for the people of the world, and the princess... is also a person of the world."
Yue Fei's face returned to calm: "Princess Roufu has been tortured by the Jin Man for more than ten years. Now that she is back, she should not end up like this."
"It's not just her..." Yue Fei paused, as if he remembered something, "Everyone who comes from the south should not end up like this."
"Since the mountains and rivers are broken, only the south of the Huaihe River is their home."
"Those who have returned home...Uncle Xin, they did not lose their lives in the Kingdom of Jin. Now that they have returned home, they cannot lose their lives at home."
"They have suffered enough...enough."
Uncle Liu Xin buried his head. After a long time, he smiled bitterly and said: "Today I just know why I was a minister in the same court. Only when you came back, you were accompanied by so many people."
"It's just Pengju. You are innocent and you are not willing to do such a conciliatory thing."
"Someone has to do it after all, right?"
After saying this, Liu Qi shouted: "Commander of the Horse Army, listen to the order! Take the carriage away!"
"If anyone stands in the way...kill!"
He shouted these words so loudly that even the people around him heard clearly.
Not to mention the thirty cavalrymen in the Yue Family Army and Princess Roufu on the carriage.
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute!"
Huang Yanjie came striding over: "Envoy Liu, Du Envoy Zhao, what are you doing!"
"This is really Her Royal Highness the Princess, whom I personally served in Bianjing City!"
"Is there some misunderstanding between us? Let's talk quickly!"
"Shut up, eunuch! Where is the place for you to talk here?!"
Zhao Mi waved his hand, and the people from the Infantry Division who had just stopped, followed by the people from the Ma Army Division, moved toward the carriage again.
The thirty cavalrymen looked grave, but not one of them showed any signs of timidity... They surrounded the carriage with their backs leaning against each other, leaving no gap.
"Who on earth dares to do such a disrespectful thing?"
Seeing that the arrow was about to go off, the gate of Xinhui Gate was slowly opened.
There was a blue sedan in front, followed by...
It's Zhang Jun, it's Xiang Guangshi, it's Han Shizhong.
The sound came from the sedan chair. Everyone looked at it and saw that the door curtain was lifted.
Qin Hui's face was revealed from inside.
At the same time, countless people rushed out from behind, and they...
Seeing the formation in front of them, they were a little cautious. They saw that there were civilians outside the city gate, and those who were braver rushed out.
Taking the lead, a flood of people rushed outside the Xinhui Gate.
"Princess Roufu is here!"
"The princess is back!"
"Princess, it's a princess!"
Everyone was far away, but they were all looking at the woman on the carriage... At this moment, she was the only one who attracted the most attention in the world.
Lao Wangtou grabbed Wang Xiaoer's collar: "Why did you come out if you weren't watching in the store?"
Wang Xiaoer held up his felt hat: "Dad, you don't know! The whole city is saying that Princess Roufu is back!"
As he spoke, he looked towards the carriage: "Who in Lin'an City has not heard the story of the princess in the past few days? Isn't it a big deal that this person can see her true appearance today?"
On the other side, Prime Minister Qin looked at Yue Fei, who had not seen him for a long time, and his face turned into a chrysanthemum smile.
It's like a wolf that has been hungry for a long time finally sees the smell of meat.
