After listening to Chen Wenduan's introduction of the Huaixi military coup in the past, Chen Ming said, "in my opinion, the reason why the generals of the Song Dynasty took the big army and the common people to the enemy in this matter has a lot to do with the improper employment of the Emperor Gaozong. "

" don't talk nonsense. The Emperor Gaozong of the great Song Dynasty can also be evaluated by you as a girl. If someone tells you that you are guilty of disrespect, then you will be miserable. " Chen Wenduan reprimanded Chen Mingdao.

Chen Wenduan, who disagreed with Chen Ming, said: "brother, you are too careful. This is on the way to Huaixi. The guards around are all your cronies. Why don't you talk about it?"

Chen Wenduan then said: "you are a brave girl, but what you said is really reasonable. Emperor Gaozong did have something wrong when he used people."

"Look, brother, you think so, too." Chen Ming said with a smile.

Chen Wenduan said: "you girl, you really have a way. However, there are some words that you and I can talk about. On that day, there was a conflict between Zhang Jun and Wang Ding. Gaozong's support for Wang Ding was indeed a wise move. But later, in order to support Zhang Jun, Wang Ding was dismissed. This completely broke the balance between the two, and let Zhang Jun be the only one in the court. However, at this time, Gao Zong thought of promoting Yue Fei and using him to check and balance Zhang Jun, but he didn't expect that Zhang Jun, after losing his favor, was dissatisfied and went to unite with Qin Hui to harm Yue Fei and Yue. Of course, this is also the reason for future generations It's a curse. "

" that is, brother, your analysis is too reasonable. To tell you the truth, in my sister's view, as an emperor, we should carefully weigh the relationship between all aspects, let the ministers give full play to their strengths and restrict each other. Only in this way can we ensure the stability of the political situation. If we blindly believe in one person's ability, it will only be a tragedy in the end. "Chen Ming said.

After listening to Chen Ming, Chen Wenduan said to her, "I heard your comments today. You are still very thoughtful. "

hearing his elder brother boast about himself, Chen Ming couldn't help but feel very proud and continued:" everyone says that Qin Hui killed Yue Fei, but I think the murderer behind the scenes is Emperor Gaozong. Just imagine, if Emperor Gaozong didn't acquiesce, how dare these two people persecute Yue Fei "

Chen Wenduan then sighed:" yes, it's time In the later period of Emperor Gaozong, the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty had reached an agreement on peace, but the ambition of Lord Yue Fei had always been the disgrace of xuejingkang and the return of the two saints, so he firmly opposed the agreement on peace, which conflicted with the supreme decision of Emperor Gaozong;

but this was not the most fatal, and later the problem of Lord Yue Fei's successor to the throne of Emperor Gaozong came to an end In addition, after Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun handed over military power, Yue Fei and his lord Yue didn't hand over military power. All this led to the Emperor Gaozong's dissatisfaction with Yue Fei and finally broke out, and Qin Hui and Zhang Jun secretly killed Yue Fei with unwarranted charges Death. "

When Chen Ming heard that Chen Wenduan had finished speaking, he said with a smile, "brother, you are very cautious in your words and deeds. I didn't expect that you would dare to say such rebellious words today."

Chen Wenduan then said, "come out of my mouth and into your ear. Don't pass it on. You must remember that, sister."

"It's natural. If it's not our close relatives, we can't talk about it together." Chen Ming said.

Chen Wenduan said to Chen Ming, "you just understand the stakes."

With these words, Chen Wenduan said anxiously: "the reason why I said this to you is that the place we are going to is also the place where the Huaixi army is stationed. If we have some knowledge in advance, you can also help me with some advice in case something happens. "

after listening to Chen Wenduan, Chen Ming asked," brother, what is the purpose of our garrison in Huaixi this time? "

Chen Wenduan said: "since the Huaixi mutiny, because there is no military defense in a large area, the Song Dynasty sent some generals to recruit troops in these blank areas to make up for the shortage of troops at that time. This time, we are going to the largest one of these self recruited troops, called" Zhongyong army ", and this is the most important one of them The commander-in-chief is Yue Zhongyong, the grandson of the famous master Yue Fei. "

"It turned out that he was the descendant of Yue Fei. Since Yue Zhongyong was a famous general, he was trained by his family since he was a child. He should be very good at leading soldiers to fight. But now what's wrong?" Chen Ming asked.

Chen Wenduan replied: "for these self recruited troops, part of their salaries and daily supplies are provided by the imperial court, and the other part is provided by the local garrison themselves. However, this part provided by the imperial court has always been paid to them in full and on time, but I don't know what happened recently. The army led by Yue Zhongyong It is reported that some soldiers have already protested because of this. Because of the lessons of the last Huaixi mutiny, the emperor attached great importance to this matter and immediately sent his brother to investigate it. ""So it is. But brother, you are a civil servant. You have never managed the military before. It's very difficult to go back and investigate this matter." Chen Ming said.

Chen Wenduan then said: "of course, there are difficulties. But the emperor now has great trust in me. In addition, the country is in troubled times. As ministers, we should share our worries for the country."

Speaking of this, Chen Wenduan stopped for a while. It seemed that he thought for a while, and then said to Chen Ming, "Yue Zhongyong is after Zhongliang, and the family tradition of Yue family is very good. I think General Yue Zhongyong should not default on soldiers' pay for no reason. I'm afraid there must be other reasons."

"Brother's analysis is very reasonable. I have the same feeling. Although we have never met General Yue, the descendants of Lord Yue Fei should not be so bad." Chen Ming also said.

"Having said that, this army is self-employed, and its personnel are very complicated. Now that we have suddenly gone, we'd better be careful. "Chen Wenduan said.

Chen Ming replied, "I listen to my elder brother."

The brother and sister walked and chatted all the way. About ten days later, they finally arrived at the camp of the loyal army.
