I, Han Gaozu, actually traveled through Song Gaozong?

Chapter 62 Retreat

With such a heavy rain, if it keeps falling like this, as soon as the sun rises tomorrow, there may be many places that will be flooded.

So after a while, the rain lightened up.

Before, I could still hear it slapping the Qiantang River, but now, I can only hear the sound of the river flowing... I think it will stop soon.

There was a fire in this shed...the brazier has always been there, but no one is willing to buy firewood.

Zhang Taiwei sent his soldiers to take money from his home, redeem the jade pendant from the old man, and then invited everyone to have a fire, with the emperor on one side and the others on the other.

After what he said just now, Guo Yaoshi didn't say any more.

Sometimes it doesn't have to be so clear, and what's more, he has already said it clearly enough.

Guo Yaoshi was waiting, waiting for the emperor to make his plan, waiting for the emperor to tell him his plan.

After a while, he added firewood several times, but the emperor was still playing with a stick...

Gently clearing his throat, Guo Yaoshi was about to speak when the emperor finally spoke.

"You boy, have you ever been an emperor?"

Guo Yaoshi was taken aback, why is this question so weird?
He smiled embarrassingly: "What are you talking about, the little old man gave birth to a miserable life, please don't make fun of it, don't make fun of it."

Seeing that the front of the stick had been burnt red, Liu Bang knocked on the edge of the brazier and moved it forward a little bit. Soon, new flames ignited on the stick.

"Since you have never been an emperor, you are also worthy to teach me?"

"Guo Yaoshi, Guo Yaoshi, I take back what I just said... You are not a little smart, you are actually very stupid."

"Since you are also a person who has fought in battle, you should know a truth, before you plan to win, you must first plan to lose... I have been thinking, if the Song Kingdom is defeated, how far it will be defeated, after much deliberation, Those people reminded me today."

Liu Bang is no stranger to failure, but he can afford the consequences of every failure because he has a way out.

Those people who signed the letter today... just told him:
If you lose, they can change their name, from Han to Jin, and it will be very fast.

But as His Majesty the Emperor, you must either be a slave like your father and brother, or...

There is only death.

He didn't want to be a slave to the Jin people, and he didn't want to die, but these people had cut off his retreat, and this was the reason he was most angry.

As for what Guo Yaoshi said, the fishermen who brought him to see him just had their hearts written on their faces.

"You want me to be your sword, to avenge you against the people of the Kingdom of Jin... I will remind you again, even if there is a war with the Kingdom of Jin, it is what I want to fight, and has nothing to do with you."

"Speak less in the future, maybe you can enjoy your old age in peace."

Guo Yaoshi was silent, he just felt that he couldn't grasp the emperor's context.

Whether it was Xiao Qian, Zhao Ji, or even the Wanyan family members behind, he could more or less guess something.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to betray him every time before they attack him...Even in the Kingdom of Jin, he would have survived.

Only the ninth son of the Zhao family, he couldn't see clearly.

"Have you heard that when Xiang Yu and Qin Bing fought, they sank the ship and smashed the pot?"

"Since there is no retreat, we can only move forward."

The emperor stood up and patted the raindrops on the coir raincoat: "However, coming tonight is not all fruitless, at least the wind by the river is colder than that in the city, it should be a wake-up call."

The voice of the common people, the voice of Qin Hui...

Hey!

It's all fart!
Liu Bang only listened to Liu Ji's voice.

The generals of the Western Army saw that the emperor seemed to have the intention of leaving, so they quickly surrounded him. Zhang Taiwei helped the emperor put on the coir raincoat:

"Officials, you should go back to the palace earlier, it's very cold here."

The sound of everyone straining could be heard outside the shed, and everyone fixed their eyes, and it turned out that the first catch of the night had already landed.

It really is a good time for harvest!
The fish were all huge and fat, and Liu Bang had already whetted his appetite after just one glance.

"Aiqing should go and buy a few, this trip is not in vain."

At this time, only Zhang Jun has money, and he has the opportunity to earn face, so he is not willing to let it go to others.

The dignified Song Taiwei just ran along the muddy road to the river, if he hadn't been supported by his own soldiers, he would have fallen a few times at least.

Even if it was this kind of opportunity, Xiang Guangshi hated Xiang Guangshi very much. He only said that next time he went out, he must remember to bring money.

"Officials, why don't you go back first, and wait for Zhang Taiwei to buy the fish and send them to the palace... It's quite cold here, you're just recovering from a serious injury, so you have to be careful."

The injury Zhao Mi mentioned was the injury on the emperor's brain. As a permanent guard in the palace, his suggestion was very reasonable.

But the emperor just waved his hand: "I won't go back."

Seeing that Haishi is almost past now, and it rained so much tonight, there is no lively place in Lin'an City!

Zhao Dushi wanted to persuade a few words, but heard the emperor say:

"Go back to the palace and set up a car. The emperor's car will be placed at the door of Qin Xiang's house."

Zhao Mi paused: "Officials, it's already this hour, or tomorrow..."

"Don't talk too much... When I get the fish, go directly from here, move both ends together, so as not to delay the time."

Unable to understand what the emperor was thinking, Zhao Mi took the order and left. Liu Bang was very satisfied when he saw the two big fish that Zhang Jun was carrying.

In other words, such a generous gift is really cheap for Qin Hui.

Thinking about it, he asked Liu Qi again: "Has Li Yi'an gone?"

Liu Kai didn't take much part in this matter, but fortunately Li Qingzhao's reputation is too great, it's hard for him not to know, so he replied:

"Probably not. Recently, most of the city is lively. They are all in Tang Shaoqing's residence in Honglu Temple. Layman Yi'an lives there temporarily. Many people want to visit."

Of course, this also includes him...mainly his wife.

"That Tang Shaoqing, did you go to court today?"

Liu Dushi thought for a while: "It seems to have gone."

"Then let her live well and don't leave Lin'an for now."

"The official family..."

Liu Kai thought that the emperor wanted to do something to Li Yi'an, but soon realized that the emperor would not.

If you do, you won't wait until today.

Come to think of it, the officials also wanted to talk to her more, after all, that was Li Yi'an.

……

Within two days of the siege of Prime Minister Qin's Mansion, various rumors emerged from outside.

However, the people in front of the palace separated the Prime Minister's Mansion from Lin'an City, so the Prime Minister's Mansion was very quiet at this moment.

The great calligrapher Qin Hui looked up at the copybook hanging in front of him while holding his pen and ink. The nib of the pen had just touched the paper, so he put the pen back again and kneaded the fine patterned paper with a drop of ink on it. A ball, thrown aside.

Just looking at the pile of paper balls on the table, Qin Xiangye's visit to the post is not going well.

"It's already late, if you continue to practice, you may hurt your eyes. Why don't father write again tomorrow?"

The other person in the study was not Qin Xie, but Wen Sheng with a fair complexion... The candles in the study were transparent, but their complexion was not half as good as this person's.

But he was neither sick nor powdered, his jade-like skin made many ladies envious.

Faced with his persuasion, Qin Xiangye did not answer, but asked:

"Where are the girls from Qinhuai River?"

"I have already left Xiuzhou, and I should arrive within three days. I will definitely arrive in Lin'an before the golden envoy."

Qin Hui nodded: "Don't make a mistake."

"No...it's just father, in our current situation, the emperor..."

What he wanted to say was whether the emperor would change his mind, but he was worried about angering Prime Minister Qin, so he stopped talking.

Knowing what he meant, Master Qin smiled and said:
"My son, don't worry about the sky. Nothing will happen. There will be no big or small things. It's Lao Jiu who should have a headache. He has to worry about himself and how he will get off the stage."

"Father, what if..."

"No!" Qin Hui looked at the copybook in front of him, and finally stopped what he was doing.
"You don't understand Lao Jiu, there is nothing wrong with Lao Jiu."
