"What do the people of the Imperial City Division do for food? Guan Qi sneaked into the capital and killed so many people, but you didn't even receive any news. Did you have to wait until he sneaked into the palace and took off my head before you realized it later? discovery?"
Just when Song Xing learned that Guan Qi had massacred Jinfeng Xiaoyulou and Liufenbantang, in the Song Dynasty Palace in Lin'an, the current Emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Gou, was furious.
In front of Zhao Gou, there were kneeling guards from the Imperial City Division who were dressed in black and had gold-edged patterns embroidered on their chests. They all lowered their heads and did not dare to express their anger.
At the front of the crowd, kneeling were three men with serious and cold expressions.
The leader was about fifty years old, with a goatee and a sharp look in his eyes, making him look very majestic.
It was Qin Hui, the prime minister of the current dynasty, who was the prime minister of the auxiliary emperor Bai Zheng and the leader of the hundreds of officials.
The person standing on the left side of Qin Hui is wearing a black robe. He has a young and handsome appearance, with slanting sword eyebrows and narrow eyes, revealing a bit of sinisterness. He is the youngest Marquis in the dynasty, the Divine Power Marquis Fang Yingkan.
The person standing on the right is wearing a crimson official robe with a sapphire belt around his waist. He is tall and burly, with dark and rough skin. His cheeks are sharp and angular, as determined as a knife or an axe, but his face at this moment is... With a bit of panic.
"On the thirteenth day of the Yuan Dynasty, you are in charge of the Imperial City Division. What do you want to say?"
Zhao Gou returned to his seat, looked at the person on his right and asked.
"Reporting to your Majesty, I have sent all the spies I can mobilize to inquire about Guan Qi's whereabouts. But..." Yuan Shisanqian leaned over and replied.
"But?" Zhao Gou frowned dissatisfied and asked, "But what?"
Yuan Shisanxian said: "But from beginning to end, we have not received any clues about Guan Qi!"
"boom!"
Zhao Gou slammed the tea cup in his hand to the ground, smashed it into pieces, and cursed angrily: "Waste, everything is waste. Raising an army for a thousand days and using it for a while, are you dogs still alive in the dog's belly?" Can't you catch even a small Guan Qi?"
Qin Hui and the other two men quickly bowed their heads and knelt on the ground, murmuring their guilt.
They were all very aware of the resentment in Zhao Gou's heart at this moment, so they could only bear the scolding, and instead tried to persuade him: "Please calm down, Your Majesty. I have already ordered all spies to be on guard."
"Haha, be on guard? With such ability, how can you trust me to hand over the entire palace to your protection!" Zhao Gou was so angry that he slapped the table with his hand.
Seeing this, Qin Hui hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, please relax. I will definitely find out Guan Qi's whereabouts as soon as possible, and mobilize all the forces in the world to kill Guan Qi as soon as possible!"
"Okay, I will trust you again. Don't let me down! Otherwise..."
After Zhao Gou snorted coldly, he nodded and said, then waved his sleeves: "Get up, Prime Minister Qin came to the palace today. What do you mean?"
Today, Zhao Gou originally summoned Fang Yingkan and Yuan Shisanqian, who were in charge of guarding the imperial city, to scold him. Who would have expected that Qin Hui would come to the palace at this time and bump into the muzzle of a gun.
Qin Hui stood up and said, "I'd like to report to the official family. Are you here because of Yue Fei's affairs?"
Zhao Gou's face suddenly darkened, and his narrow eyes shot out an indifferent light: "Go on!"
Qin Hui said: "According to the information obtained by me, there are people with evil intentions who intend to fish in troubled waters through the government's decree to kill Guan Qi. They unite some Jianghu people and the Yue family army to kidnap Yue Fei while the government is not paying attention to him. Get out of jail.”
"Prison robbery, what do they want to do?" Zhao Gou asked with a cold expression on his face.
Qin Hui lowered his head and said softly: "I dare not speak nonsense."
"Don't you dare to speak nonsense?" Zhao Gou asked in a cold tone: "Yue Fei disobeyed the emperor, took advantage of his kindness in vain, resisted the decree and disrespected the emperor. Aren't these the things you said with confidence, Prime Minister, so what happens now?"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I really didn't expect anyone to dare to disobey the imperial edict. I promise to kill Guan Qi this time. Even if someone wants to draw chestnuts from the fire, I will never let the thieves succeed!" Qin Hui sweated on his forehead and hurriedly explained. road.
Zhao Gou snorted coldly and said: "I leave this matter to you with full authority. You must handle the matter of Guan Qi and Yue Fei properly, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind!"
"Yes! I obey!"
After Zhao Gou scolded Qin Hui, he looked at Fang Yingkan again and asked him: "Marquis Shentong, what about you? What do you think of this matter?"
Fang Ying looked at the words and answered with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, Yue Fei has a high prestige in the army. I think that if he is killed directly, it may not be good for the country and the country! I suggest that Yue Fei be detained in the imperial prison until he is ready. Your Majesty must judge it in person before making a decision!"
After hearing this, Zhao Gou fell into a brief thought, and finally sighed: "Well, since Shentonghou said so, let's act in accordance with Shentonghou's words! The order was sent to immediately capture Yue Yun and Zhang Xian and return them to the eucalyptus, and transfer Han Shizhong to temporarily act as the commander of the rear guard of the imperial camp. To control the situation, select the Feng Army and the Shengjie Army to go with them to suppress lawlessness."
"In addition, starting tomorrow, except for the Yulin Army, all the Forbidden Army, Xiaoqi Camp, Yulin Army and other troops will evacuate from the vicinity of the capital and defend the main roads in the capital." Zhao Gou added.
"I obey the order!"
"As for Guan Qi..." At this point, Zhao Gou's tone obviously hesitated.
Fang Yingkan said quickly: "Guan Qi is just a ruthless man. Even if his martial arts are unrivaled, how can he stand against the might of Heaven?"
Zhao Gou shook his head slowly, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed the words again.
He closed his eyes and waved his hand, indicating that the two of them could leave.
Fang Yingkan and the two men retreated after being ordered to go to the door of the palace. Fang Yingkan suddenly turned around and said to Qin Hui: "The Prime Minister is really a good trick. With a little trick, the Jinfeng Xiaoyu Tower and Six and a Half Minutes who dominate the capital can be defeated." Tang’s strength has been greatly damaged, Xiaohou really admires him.”
Qin Hui looked at him deeply and replied expressionlessly: "Why did Marquis Fang say this?"
Fang Ying smiled meaningfully, stopped continuing the topic, raised his legs and left.
Looking at Fang Ying's back as he walked away, Qin Hui's eyes flickered for a moment before he said to Yuan Shisanxian beside him: "Is Guan Qi's martial arts really as high as Fang Yingkan said?"
Yuan Shisanqian frowned and said: "I once went to Jinfeng Xiaoyu Tower to see Guan Qi's martial arts, which is indeed extraordinary. Jinfeng Xiaoyu Tower and Liufenbantang, this time although Su Mengzhen and Lei Xiang were The negotiations were not at the headquarters, but those who stayed behind were still their strongest experts, but they all died in Guan Qi's hands, and the subordinates asked themselves that they were not his opponents."
Qin Hui was silent after hearing this, and after a long time he said: "If that's really the case, then things will be a little troublesome."
Yuan Shisanhan said: "The Prime Minister is overly worried. In my opinion, although Guan Qi's martial arts is high, he is only a mere martial artist. How can he be the Prime Minister's opponent? On the contrary, Zhuge Zheng of the Six Sects has been plotting to rescue me. Yue Fei must be guarded against."
Qin Hui nodded and shook his head and said: "Zhuge Zheng is nothing to worry about. Although he is a veteran of three dynasties and the officials also think highly of him, he is on the wrong team in this matter. Do you think that even without me, Yue Fei Can you survive?"
Yuan Shisanqian showed a thoughtful expression after hearing this.
Qin Hui narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Remember, our current enemies are the other stubborn old men in the court. They are the ones we need to be wary of!"
"Yes, I have remembered it!" Yuan Shisanqian said respectfully.
Qin Hui raised his head and glanced at the gray sky above his head, and said again: "It seems that relying on Jianghu power alone is no longer safe. Send my order to the disciples of the Buddhist and Taoist families in the capital. Who can free the seven heads of Guan within ten days?" In front of me, I recommend them to become the state religion of the Song Dynasty!"
