"He, Zhao Gou, can sit in this position of emperor, but you, Yue Fei, can't?"
"Of course I can't sit down."
"Can anyone else sit there?"
"He... Your Majesty... still has no children."
"It's impossible to have no children."
"Although I have no biological children, I have adopted children..."
"Among the adopted sons, are there any who can take on this responsibility?"
"This... even if there is, I cannot do such a thing that betrays you."
"Look, this brings us back again. I told you that it would be impossible if it were this emperor, but you are unwilling to personally change the emperor. Isn't that a deadlock?"
Du Kang spread his hands.
Today, his mentality is completely different.
Before, there was an idea of substitution, pity, and wanting to help, but now, it can be said that it is basically a third-party spectator attitude.
The emperor who lost his power and humiliated the country and bowed his head like this, the ministers who compromised and sued for peace and ceded territory to pay money... Such a regime will be destroyed if it is destroyed.
The only people worthy of Du Kang's concern are people like Yue Fei who have always existed for the sake of their family and country... As for the others, I can only say that they are all gone.
If you see someone you like, you'll help, but if you want to change something big, it's just a traveler... If you really have that kind of ability, why not use it directly in this world?
Du Kang did exactly this.
When you think like this, your mind becomes clear.
When Yue Fei heard this, he could only lower his head and sigh, remaining silent.
Such a conversation would probably be quite shocking to others. After all, he is an emperor and has no children. If he really wants to leave evidence, he is probably not far away from being executed. It is absolutely impossible for Yue Fei to say this on weekdays.
, but when you are with Du Kang, you don’t have such scruples. Who hasn’t had sex with Xin’s past friends in private? Isn’t that what we usually talk about when we drink until the end?
Another one is that with Du Kang’s identity, saying this really can’t be said to be insulting... Anyway, it seems like this to Yue Fei. He is a god in the sky. He looked like this more than ten years ago. See you today, Yue Fei has become
A middle-aged man in his thirties, Du Kang is still the same, as if he has never changed... Maybe mundane things are just the past in others' eyes, not worth mentioning.
"I can see that you didn't really want to resign when you wrote the dictionary, but you wanted to retreat in order to force the emperor to agree not to sign the collegial agreement and allow you to continue to lead troops to counterattack the Kingdom of Jin... But you are not afraid of fighting with it.
So there is a gap in Zhao Gou's heart?" Du Kang asked with a smile.
"If we can really achieve our goal, then what if there is a gap in our hearts?" Yue Fei shook his head, "What I want is nothing more than to go straight to Huanglong and avenge my family and my country..."
"..." Du Kang shook his head and no longer planned to continue talking on this topic. Instead, he changed another topic and said, "You know, every time I come here, I have to slay demons.
?”
"Of course I know, I'm grateful..."
"That's not what I meant. As an exorcist, it is my duty to conquer demons, and I can directly benefit from it, so I don't need to be grateful." Du Kang interrupted Yue Fei and said, "But this time,
I came, but I didn't find any monsters nearby."
"...There are no monsters, isn't that a good thing?" Yue Fei was stunned.
"No, you don't understand." Du Kang shook his head and murmured in his mind. If there are no demons, then as an exorcist, is he here just to catch fish?
Are there official rewards for catching fish? But if there is no demon to get rid of, then there are no reward points, let alone the so-called substitute.
But it was impossible to directly analyze it to Yue Fei, so Du Kang thought about it and changed his explanation method.
"It can be understood that every time I return, I always live in seclusion in another place. Only when I feel an intuition will I know that you have encountered a demon here, and then come to help. This time I came here for the same reason.
But no demon was found, which is very wrong."
"There is no possibility of any accident?" Yue Fei became serious and realized the seriousness of Du Kang's words... If the demon really exists, and it is a demon that even gods like Du Kang can't discover, does that mean that the demon's level is the same?
high?
"There is no such unexpected possibility that the demon does not exist." Du Kang said, "But I believe that there must be a demon that needs me to deal with, and this demon must have interacted with you, General Yue... But I am not on you.
Did you find any traces or smells?"
Yue Fei frowned and remained silent. Of course he knew that Du Kang's intention was definitely not to hide the demon on purpose, but now...
"Is it because the monster hasn't come yet?"
"It's not impossible, but the possibility is very small, so I suggest we investigate another possibility first." Du Kang said slowly, "General, do you still remember the martial arts I told you about?"
"Wen has literary spirit, and martial arts has martial arts. I naturally keep this in mind." Yue Fei nodded and said.
"Yes, martial arts can naturally make demons and monsters take detours, and all kinds of evil spirits can't get in. Although they will not be able to defeat some powerful monsters, they will definitely have the intention to fight back, which will affect the
The military commander himself is also disgusted with him."
Du Kang said, and directly used another spell, so that Yue Fei could see the vigorous and upward martial arts in him, the golden light was like substance: "So, please think carefully, general, have you encountered anything that made you feel sad in recent days?"
Are you so disgusted that you want to kill someone with a gun?"
"Is there such a thing that makes you feel so disgusted that you want to kill it with a gun?" Yue Fei muttered.
"That's right," Du Kang thought for a moment and added, "Whether it's far or near, whether it's the first time or multiple times... the closer it is to today, the better."
Du Kang did not believe that the system would go wrong. No matter what possibility he thought of, unless all factors were investigated, he would not be able to doubt this fundamental thing.
What he is doing now is to investigate these factors to see if he can directly find traces of the existence of demons... The location of Yue Fei's induction is naturally the first suspect.
"This..." Yue Fei pondered for a long time and was speechless for a long time.
Du Kang saw some clues from this, frowned slightly, and asked: "Is it... hard to tell?"
"No, I just think that Young Master may not believe it when I say it like this." Yue Fei came back to his senses and shook his head.
"General Yue, the man who serves the country with all his heart, how could I not trust you? If I really couldn't trust you, I wouldn't come here to slay the demon again and again." Du Kang said, "No matter who I am thinking of, even if I say so,
I naturally have a way to investigate. If it is really a demon, then it is my responsibility to subjugate the demon. If not, I will never wrong the other party."
"It's not that I'm worried about wronging the other party. Those who lose their power and humiliate the country will not hesitate to die!" Yue Fei said bitterly, with a hint of gnashing of teeth, and a bit of ferocity in his appearance... No matter how you say it, he is still a human being.
He is a general who has fought hundreds of battles and killed countless people, but he still has this murderous spirit.
However, he quickly adjusted himself, saluted Du Kang, apologized for his rudeness, and then explained: "I just think that the other party cannot be some kind of monster, and I also feel that this move is to use the young master to retaliate.
I mean, I am worried that the young master will misunderstand...that person is the current prime minister."
"Qin Hui?" Du Kang raised his eyebrows.
"It is this person." Yue Fei nodded, and then explained, "But because this person lost power and humiliated the country, the Jin people did not call the Song Dynasty but called it 'Jiangnan', and did not say 'peace' but 'imperial edict', completely referring to the Southern Song Dynasty."
He was placed in the position of a vassal, and then Qin Hui became the prime minister but knelt at the feet of the golden man... These behaviors themselves made me extremely disgusted, and maybe they didn't mean the same thing as the disgust the young master said;
Secondly, he is a prime minister and has a lot of culture, so he should not be a monster..."
"It's impossible to tell." Du Kang shook his head, looking a little strange.
"I remember I once told you that both literary energy and martial arts can fight against demons, but when a person has evil intentions in his heart, no amount of literary energy or martial arts can protect him... Another thing, as the king of a country,
The king's luck can overshadow the evil spirit, making it invisible to ordinary people. In other words, there is a real possibility that Qin Hui is evil.
Of course, this may or may not mean that when a country is about to perish, there must be evil at work. This evil may be a human or a real demon, but there is no telling which one is more harmful."
"That is to say, it is very possible that Qin Hui is really an evil spirit, and he has also influenced the Holy One. In fact, it is possible that he is secretly applying evil methods to cause trouble?" Yue Fei stood up with excitement, and there was a light in his eyebrows, probably
It was because my heart, which had been so angry that I almost fell into despair, suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.
"No, this is impossible." Du Kang shook his head, "Even if Qin Hui is really a big demon in disguise, it is absolutely impossible to exert evil methods to influence the king of a country... Even if it is just the Southern Song Dynasty, the luck is there
Although he is damaged, he can be regarded as the king of a country. The destiny of the country is connected with his destiny, so he will naturally be protected from the invasion of evil laws. Qin Hui can only influence it with words at most. In other words, even if he is really a great demon, he can do
He is no different from an ordinary traitor."
"Maybe without this treacherous minister, Your Majesty..." Yue Fei couldn't help but said, but stopped talking in the middle of the sentence. Apparently he realized that the "maybe" in these words was not even "one ten thousandth"
"There is no possibility".
"Even if there is no Qin Hui, there will naturally be others. So if Zhao Gou really has his own opinion and is really a wise king, can he be influenced by a few words from others? He has obviously lost his courage long ago..."
Du Kang found it boring in the middle of the sentence. After he stopped, he added, "It's useless to talk more. Is there anything here that may have passed through the hands of Qin Hui? If it has passed through his hands, it will definitely leave some breath.
, I can tell it directly through this information, but if the breath is obscured by something, then it is natural that I cannot detect it."
"How can I keep something that passed by the traitor here..." Yue Fei said subconsciously, then he stopped, thought for a while, and said two words, "Edict?"
"Edict?" Du Kang raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, the Holy Emperor's edict said that he wanted to confer me with the title of Kaifu Yi and the Third Division... I refused, but the edict is still here." Yue Fei nodded and immediately took out the edict, "Qin Hui, listen
He is a good calligrapher, he is the current prime minister, and he is highly trusted by the Holy One. This imperial edict must have passed through his hands, and he might even have written it..."
Although there is a saying that calligraphy is like the person it is, but if every sentence of this proverb is correct, it is absolutely impossible. There are many famous traitors or ignorant kings who can write well, but no one is that good.
Go... There are other things that come from the heart, and the same principle applies. If anyone really believes it, he is a fool.
"If it's an edict, it's indeed possible. With the emperor's seal stamped on it, it can naturally block the evil spirit..." Du Kang nodded and saw Yue Fei take out the tightly packed edict and open it. Sure enough,
When he saw a very good calligraphy written on it with a seal and the specific specifications, Du Kang didn't take a close look at it. Anyway, he didn't have much research on it, but the content and words in it made people laugh.
Why celebrate the success of the "peace negotiation", grant amnesty to the world, and commend the armies... Maybe when giving these rewards, Zhao Gou and Qin Hui thought that Yue Fei expressed his opposition to the peace because he did not get enough benefits. They thought this was a benefit.
You can bribe Yue Fei.
It can only be said that what kind of people will look at one thing from what angle. For people like Zhao Gou and Qin Hui, that's it at most. But if you look at it from Yue Fei's point of view, it's natural that he will never give up, devote himself to death, and die.
Yes, such praise is an insult.
How can there be a peace agreement in which the prime minister kneels at the feet of the envoy? That is not a peace agreement, that is surrender, and the Southern Song Dynasty will serve as a subsidiary of the Jin Kingdom from now on! It is an annual tribute of 250,000 taels of silver and silk!
Even at the beginning, the Kingdom of Jin directly asked Zhao Gou to personally kneel down to receive the imperial edict from the Jin Dynasty emperor, placing the Southern Song Dynasty completely in a vassal status. However, others were asking for high prices, and here they paid back the money. In the end, they only got a prime minister to kneel down.
I guess I felt complacent because of this, feeling that I had taken advantage of him and saved my last bit of face.
As everyone knows, during the peace negotiations, all this face has been lost!
Dignity is never achieved by negotiation, but by fighting! If you hit with one punch, you will avoid hundreds of punches! Once you surrender, you will have to cede territory and pay compensation countless times!
Fortunately, in this land, although there are those soft bones who always kneel on the ground, there will always be heroes who are the backbone to stand up and support the will of this nation and continue it...
"On the surface, I can't see anything evil in this edict...because it is surrounded by national destiny. Even if it is true, it has been completely covered unless the national destiny is stripped off." Du Kang looked at it.
He looked at it and frowned slightly, "Logically speaking, only the monarch can control the fate of the country, and others will only suffer backlash..."
"If that's the case, let's forget it. I'll let the young master suffer backlash for this matter..." Upon hearing this, Yue Fei had just tried to persuade him when he saw Du Kang reaching out and lifting it up, as if peeling something off or brushing it off.
Gone some dust.
Then, the edict immediately revealed an aura that disgusted Yue Fei.
Yue Fei was stunned. In this way, even if he couldn't see it, he could still know that Du Kang's separation was probably successful.
It's just...it's obviously very difficult to say, but why does it look so easy?
"Um..." Du Kang looked at his hands in a daze, and an idea came to his mind involuntarily.
