My hero is myself

He didn't even bother to put him under house arrest.

I know you're alive and I know you're wandering around the city.

It doesn’t matter, if you have the ability to restore, just use it!

Such an almost arrogant attitude.

On the contrary, Zhao Yuan became more and more curious about this army.

And after repeatedly understanding the publicly circulated "Sealing Heaven and Killing Life", learning more information about King Peng's army, and understanding King Peng's purpose and philosophy...

Zhao Yuan volunteers to join the Peng King Army!

This was something that shocked all the loyal officials of the old Song Dynasty.

He also deceived King Peng's army.

Why did the former prince who was let go come back on his own?

Brother, you can't even count yourself in the capital, because we are not arresting you!

The reason given by Zhao Yuan is extremely shocking:

I joined the Peng King Army as scholar Zhao Yuan.

In the feudal era, scholars were a rare resource.

Although Roland couldn't stand the weakness of the scholar-bureaucrat class, he was constantly weakening their privileges.

But governing a country is different from striving for hegemony. It requires people who are well-read and literate to establish an administrative system.

Therefore, scholars are very popular in Pengwangjun.

But Zhao Yuan's identity was too special after all, and the officials in charge of recruitment did not dare to accept him.

But Zhao Yuan talked eloquently and took out the content written on the sealing seal and the life seal:

King Peng's army recruits children, regardless of their origin or bloodline, only those who are capable will be recruited.

I, Zhao Yuan, have never done any evil. I have read, can read, write and do calculations.

Yes, it is a bit laborious to take the No. [-] exam.

But it’s not the imperial examination standard here, right?

Even being a bookkeeper or a military scribe is fine.

I just want to……

Participate in the Northern Expedition in person!

Zhao Yuan used the ideas and rules of Peng Wangjun to argue, and he kept talking about the sentences in the sealing heaven and killing urn.

All the generals couldn't defeat him.

He had been interrogated before and found that he indeed had no criminal record.

Such people, as long as they are willing to contribute, can naturally join the Peng King Army.

Slaves and humble labor had been abolished before, and everyone in the Song Dynasty was equal...

But it is not based on blood, it is to give opportunities to common people.

Can and should you, the former royal family and the royal family named Zhao, serve as officers in King Peng's army?

This matter could only be reported to Gong Zhengxi once.

He was also confused.

Zhao Gou is still in prison. The heir he trained will serve for King Peng's army?

With no choice, he once again used a trump card and asked King Peng when he was in doubt.

After learning about Zhao Yuan's identity and wishes, Roland was also surprised.

In this world, are there really people who would take their own lives?

【approve. 】

He responded with two words.

As a god, he was confident that no matter what Zhao Yuan said was true or false or what his intentions were, it would not turn the world upside down.

He even asked Zhao Yuan to participate in the retrial of Yue Fei's case.

Zhao Yuan reciprocated the favor and gave a lot of useful information.

In the past, he secretly collected criminal information and evidence of the Qin Party's collusion.

There are also many official records about Yue Fei, which were completely deleted by Qin Hui.

There is actually a copy over there from Zhao Yuan.

There are many shady secrets of Zhao Gou and the Zhao family.

In the past, after the Zhao family clan members, princes and ministers were kidnapped by the Jin Kingdom, they suffered all kinds of misery and showed all kinds of cowardice. The records of later generations are just a drop in the bucket and the result of repeated repairs and beautifications.

Now Zhao Yuan came up with an extremely bloody, true and reliable version.

"There is such a huge difference in the ideas of 20-year-old Zhao Yuan and 40-year-old Zhao Shen."

Roland couldn't help feeling emotional when he saw the classics and materials presented by Zhao Yuan.

In the original history, when Zhao Yuan ascended the throne as emperor more than ten years later and rehabilitated Yue Fei, no specific historical records were restored.

Although Zhao Gou was still the Supreme Emperor at that time, the mentality of the prince Zhao Yuan and the emperor Zhao Shen were different, and the subtleties are thought-provoking.

Zhao Shen defeated Yue Fei in order to pave the way for the Northern Expedition and regain the support of the generals.

Concealing Yue Fei's records was to avoid further embarrassing the Zhao family and to ensure the stability of his rule.

This emperor's mental skills are evident.

But now, because of the sudden appearance of Peng Wangjun, the passionate Zhao Yuan actually felt something in his heart, abandoned his past, and volunteered to join the army.

His changes made Roland couldn't help but think a lot.

Over more than ten years, my identity has changed, and the information I have been exposed to has changed...

One person's thoughts and decisions can make such a big difference.

Extraordinary people often live for hundreds or thousands of years, and have experienced things changing and people changing.

How many people are there who have never forgotten their original aspirations, and how many are there who are full of vigor and vitality?

Physical immortality does not mean that the mind will not experience vicissitudes of life.

Some things...he still wanted to keep things simple.

At this time, Peng Wangjun encountered another problem.

Roland's identity in this life is that of a god and he does not need the throne.

Not suitable either.

The gods are illusory, but the emperor is real.

He should support a new emperor.

The criteria are very simple: they are capable enough and have the world in mind.

Shan Yingqi was originally a good candidate, but at this time he was already a ghost general and was also not suitable to be a human king.

Next, in terms of qualifications and ability, the first pick is Gong Zhengxi.

But this man has no intention of becoming emperor.

Gong Zhengxi is very self-aware.

He has many ideas and a lively brain, but he is not ruthless enough and he is cautious in doing things.

He felt that he would be fine as the second in command.

He felt a bit pressured to take on all the responsibilities...

Roland looked around and suddenly wanted to respect history.

He named Zhao Yuan as the presiding judge in Yue Fei's case.

As smart as Zhao Yuan, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity and a challenge.

A rare scene that is unique in history occurred in King Peng's army:

None of those who are qualified to be emperor want to be emperor.

Obviously, this is a position where countless people are fighting for their heads, even if they kill brothers and fathers, they want to climb up.

Now that the opportunity is in front of him, Zhao Yuan will not miss it even if he gives up the idea of ​​becoming emperor.

He accepted this challenge and continued to preside over the retrial of Yue Fei's case under the watchful eyes of the gods.

This kid is ruthless enough.

He completely forgot about his identity as a member of the Zhao family, and only asked himself as a follower of King Peng.

This is not a position of superiority over others, this is serving the people, with restoring the truth and clearing grievances as the primary requirement.

Fair, just and open...ahem!

In the eyes of outsiders, Zhao Yuan was severely separated from the Zhao family and the identity of the former prince.

All cases are handled impartially and outstanding abilities are demonstrated.

Zhao Gou was so angry that he was so angry when he saw the information about Zhao Yuan that should not be made public.

"You are a lackey of King Peng's army. Do you remember that you are the heir to the throne of the Song Dynasty?"

Zhao Yuan looked at his adoptive father coldly, the contempt in his eyes was self-evident:

When you were a lackey of the Jin Kingdom, do you still remember that you were the Emperor of the Song Dynasty?

If I don’t serve King Peng, am I going to be like you, an old loser, pretending to be crazy and pretending to be a vassal to the Kingdom of Jin?

Zhao Gou understood Zhao Yuan's gaze.

The shameless mentality that had always been broken before suddenly collapsed.

Although this child is not biological.

But since he entered the palace at the age of five, Zhao Gou watched him grow up.

Even though the royal family was indifferent, Zhao Gou still hoped to have some dignity as an elder in front of Zhao Yuan.

Now this last bit of dignity is gone!

Zhao Yuan naturally respected him in the past.

After all, whether he can succeed or not depends on Zhao Gou's thoughts.

But now, Zhao Yuan no longer needs to please Zhao Gou.

You only need to prove your abilities and ideas to gain King Peng's trust.

If you get to the position you longed for before, you can also get a group of strong men to serve in the Northern Expedition...

He evaluated Zhao Gou and others from a completely objective perspective:

"After retrial, Yue Fei was loyal to the emperor and patriotic. He was not guilty of a crime worthy of death and had no criminal facts."

"In the case of Yue Fei, all decisions made by Qin Hui were tacitly approved by Zhao Gou, who was the emperor of Song Dynasty, and there were no private arrangements."

"The former emperor Zhao Gou ignored government affairs, indulged in vocal music, and harmed loyal people. He is unworthy of being a king."

"Cowardice and fear of death led to the rampage of the Jin Kingdom, the displacement of countless people, and the loss of dignity of the Song Dynasty."

"Yue Fei was unjustly imprisoned, Zhao Goufang was the main conspirator, Qin Hui, Zhang Jun, etc. were all accomplices and perpetrators..."

"There are also more than a thousand corrupt officials in the Qin Party... and they are tried in one case."

"They all deserve to be killed."

Zhao Yuan read out the final trial results indifferently.

A 20-year-old boy, his heart is as high as the sky, and his ambition is not here.

In a tone as calm as the abyss, he sentenced Zhao Gou to death, with absolutely no buffer such as a reprieve.

Because he is confident that he will not go down that road.
