Chapter 508: Qin Gui's heart-piercing argument, the conflicted Zhao Gou!

~8 min read 1,515 words

"Was my decision to conquer the Northern Song correct or incorrect?"

Zhao Gou could not help but think in his heart.

"This is all the fault of the Great Jin!!!"

"This is all the fault of the Great Jin's treachery!!!"

"It's not my fault!!! This is all the fault of the Great Jin!"

Zhao Gou shouted loudly as if he were crazy.

He felt that if it weren't for the Great Jin suddenly tearing up the alliance agreement made before the Southern Song sent troops to the Northern Song, and launching a surprise attack on his rear.

Even if the Northern Song had the help of the Great Tang, he, Zhao Gou, would definitely not have lost so miserably!

"I will make the Great Jin pay the price!!!"

"The Wanyan family is a bunch of scoundrels!!!! It's infuriating, it's infuriating!"

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou finally emerged from the state of rage.

Subsequently, he thought of what Yao Yue Fei had said to him before he left:

"If you truly want to save the Southern Song, then withdraw all the troops in the Northern Song to defend against the Great Jin's army!"

Regarding some of the things about military strategy and combat that Yao Yue Fei told him, Zhao Gou did not understand at all, but now that the country was experiencing war, Zhao Gou knew that only by handing all the soldiers to capable people.

Could they make the Northern Song slowly get better.

Thinking of this, the thought of handing over the remaining forty percent of the Southern Song's only troops to Yao Yue Fei rose in Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou's heart.

Subsequently, Zhao Gou called Qin Gui over.

"Minister Qin!!"

Zhao Gou shouted loudly towards outside the imperial palace.

Hearing Zhao Gou's words, Qin Gui walked in happily.

Although Qin Gui had already planned his retreat and had long since become a traitor to the Southern Song, throwing himself into the embrace of the Great Jin.

But since he was still in the Southern Song now, naturally, when facing Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou, he still had to act like the most loyal pug.

"Your Majesty, what is the matter for calling your minister?"

Zhao Gou bowed slightly towards Zhao Gou and spoke.

Looking at Qin Gui before him, a smile could not help but appear on Zhao Gou's face.

For some reason, as long as he saw Qin Gui, Zhao Gou would unconsciously feel bursts of happiness in his heart.

"Minister Qin, I want to hand over all the troops of our Southern Song to Grand General Yao Yue Fei to control. What do you think about this?"

Zhao Gou said slowly to Qin Gui.

For Qin Gui, Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou had one hundred percent trust. In Zhao Gou's heart, even if Grand General Yao Yue Fei betrayed him, Zhao Gou, Qin Gui would never betray him.

After all, Zhao Gou's treatment of Qin Gui was not ordinary pampering.

Upon hearing Zhao Gou's words, Qin Gui was shocked, his vision went black instantly, and he almost sat on the ground.

However, fortunately, he stabilized his figure in the end, otherwise, he would have lost face before Zhao Gou.

Facing Zhao Gou's question, Qin Gui did not answer immediately.

After all, in Qin Gui's heart, he was definitely ten thousand times unwilling to let Yao Yue Fei control all the troops of the Southern Song. After all, Qin Gui had already bet all his assets on the Great Jin.

And in the Southern Song, he, Qin Gui, had also done too many harmful things, and had done too many things that failed the Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou before his eyes.

If he truly listened to what Zhao Gou said and handed over all the troops currently possessed by the Southern Song to Yao Yue Fei to control, relying on Yao Yue Fei's ability, he might truly be able to reverse this nearly unsolvable situation and slowly drive the Great Jin's army out of the Southern Song's borders!

By that time, Qin Gui's assets on the Great Jin's side would be gone. Although Qin Gui would be very heartbroken, it was not a fatal thing.

But if one day, everything Qin Gui was doing now was discovered by Zhao Gou, that would be the most fatal thing.

After all, Qin Gui was guilty of treason. By then, no matter how much Zhao Gou pampered him, he would definitely not be able to protect the head on Qin Gui's shoulders.

Therefore, as far as Qin Gui was concerned, he was absolutely unwilling to let Yao Yue Fei hold power completely.

It might be because Qin Gui was a bit guilty now, when Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou suddenly asked him this question, he was actually a bit afraid to speak his mind for a moment.

Qin Gui felt that Zhao Gou was testing him now. After all, some time ago, Zhao Gou saw that the situation of the Great Jin was very good, and the Jin army was singing all the way, so Qin Gui became a bit arrogant, and he treated Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou with an indifferent attitude at that time.

Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou looked at Qin Gui before him who had been silent, and a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes.

"Minister Qin, just say whatever you have to say. In my heart, the person I trust most now is you."

"If even you cannot give me a suggestion now, I truly don't know who to ask."

Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou said slowly to Qin Gui, and there was even a trace of request in his tone.

After Qin Gui heard Zhao Gou's words, Qin Gui was also a bit stunned for a moment.

"Could it be that this fool is really asking me?"

Qin Gui murmured in his heart, and then he cautiously tested Zhao Gou:

"Your Majesty, the minister feels that this matter is inappropriate."

"The minister does not care if what I say today will make Your Majesty misunderstand that I have any improper intentions, but I still must say everything I want to say!"

After speaking, Zhao Gou knelt directly on the ground, and even buried his head on the floor.

Looking at Qin Gui at this moment, Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou was stunned, and then Zhao Gou shouted loudly to Qin Gui:

"Minister Qin, what are you doing!!!"

"Get up quickly, get up and speak."

"Minister Qin, no matter what you say today, I will not blame you!"

Hearing Zhao Gou's words, a smile of success appeared on Qin Gui's face, which was lowered to the ground.

"It seems this fool really has no precautions against me, then this is much easier to talk about."

Qin Gui thought secretly in his heart.

Subsequently, Qin Gui forcibly squeezed a few drops of tears from his eyes, raised his head, and spoke with emotion as if he were a loyal minister remonstrating to his sovereign.

......... ..... 0

"Your Majesty, according to the minister's opinion, you must absolutely not hand over all military power to Yao Yue Fei!"

"Now, Yao Yue Fei's Yao Yue Family Army only listens to Yao Yue Fei alone and does not listen to imperial power."

"Because Yao Yue Fei has always been on the front line of resisting the Jin, he is also loved and respected by the people!"

"If you now hand over all the military power of our Great Song to Yao Yue Fei, then will our Great Song be surnamed Yao Yue or surnamed Zhao in the future?"

"By then, when Yao Yue Fei controls everything in the Great Song and can freely manipulate the Great Song, will he still be able to listen to Your Majesty as he does now? Or will he rely on his troops to act with self-importance?"

"Or even... do something rebellious!?"

Qin Gui cried while shouting loudly to Zhao Gou.

What Qin Gui said now was indeed a heart-piercing argument, and every word he said hit Zhao Gou's heart.

In fact, not to mention Zhao Gou, even any emperor, upon hearing such words, would inevitably have all kinds of strange emotions in his heart.

And Song Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou, who heard Qin Gui's words, also gradually had his face turn black.

Reminded by Qin Gui, he thought of their Taizu Zhao Zhao Kuangyin. Their Zhao family had obtained this Great Song world precisely by relying on relying on troops to act with self-importance!

Therefore, regarding what Qin Gui said, Zhao Gou had a very great feeling in his heart.

After heavy thinking, Zhao Gou finally let out a sigh of helplessness and made a "withdraw" gesture to Qin Gui.

After Qin Gui's fuss, Zhao Gou truly did not dare to hand over all the troops in his hands.

He wanted to wait for a period of time to see the future situation before making the next decision! ===== CHAPTER 874 =====
