Destroy Jin and conquer Song, and carry the Northern Expedition through to the end

Chapter 502: The blood of millions of heroes was exchanged for the pleasure of the official bed
On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, there will be a great meeting.

Normally, this was not the day for a grand court meeting, nor was it the day for presenting prisoners, but who could blame it for the fact that this was the first time that the Jin Emperor Wanyan Liang appeared as a prisoner?

The State of Song had no choice but to pay attention to it.

This simple court meeting is not so easy to hold. Although the regulations are more perfunctory than those of a formal court meeting, it still requires preparation several days in advance and should be as grand as possible.

What was presented to Liu Huai at this moment was exactly like Wang Wei's famous poem.

It is:

The Jiangxi Rooster reported Xiaochi, and Shangyi Fang entered Cuiyunqiu.

Jiutianchang opens the palace, and all nations pay homage to Mianqi.

The sun was just before the palm of the fairy moved, and the cigarettes wanted to be near the dragon.

After the court strikes, the five-color edict must be cut, and the Peisheng will return to Fengchitou.

Of course, for the triumphant generals such as Liu Huai, there were not so many twists and turns. Even the officials who came to teach etiquette told them to stand still, not to make loud noises, to keep their clothes tidy, not to look around, not to whisper, and other classroom discipline-like precautions.

It’s just that Yu Yunwen brought some golden advice from Zhao Gou.

The five generals of the Jingnan Army who were to meet the emperor, Liu Huai, Xin Qiji, Jia Rui, Zhang Baiyu and Bi Zaiyou, were required to wear full sets of heavy armor and carry special wooden weapons before going to the palace.

Liu Huai thought about it and felt that it was unlikely that he had accidentally entered the White Tiger Hall, so he put on the heavy armor that still had some blood stains and marks from knife and axe cuts.

Although it was a bit tiring, I didn't have to kowtow to Zhao Gou, which was a blessing in disguise.

When he thought of this, Liu Huai felt a little disgusted.

If he was facing a king like Li Shimin, Liu Huai would have knelt down in order to keep a low profile, but when facing Zhao Gou, he really couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

What a fucking humiliation this is!
After meeting up with four generals, Liu Huai and his personal guards filed out.

As soon as I walked out of the gate, I saw Cheng Min and Li Xianzhong both wearing heavy armor and with big dark circles under their eyes. Cheng Min was also drunk, obviously he had drunk a lot yesterday.

Yu Yunwen also seemed to have not had a good night's rest. His face was haggard, but he still forced himself to stay alert.

It seems that these three people received the news of Liu Qi's death last night, and they were all hit hard.

Liang Qiu, on the other hand, was in high spirits. He held up a talisman that he had found from somewhere and saluted Liu Huai and the others. Then he got on a carriage with several followers and left with the ceremonial officer.

Seeing Liu Huai still staring at Liang Qiu's back, Yu Yunwen thought he was still trying to stop the peace talks by killing Liang Qiu. He shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Dalang. The Jin Kingdom is set to tear up the Shaoxing Peace Agreement. Those who advocate peace in the court cannot avoid this hurdle."

As he spoke, Yu Yunwen jumped on his horse and led the victorious heroes of the Chao County battle towards the palace.

Although the Song Dynasty's grand court meeting sounded very grand, with all kinds of ceremonial propaganda and ceremonial guards, in Liu Huai's opinion, it was not as lively as the opening ceremony of a formal school sports meeting.

At least the opening ceremony of the sports meeting had majestic and powerful background music, but here there was only the shouting of the eunuchs. Although a ceremonial officer led a group of court choirs to sing for two quarters of an hour, this song with a strong ancient style could not be said to be sung in the so-called elegant language.

But for a postmodern roughneck like Liu Huai, it makes no difference; he just can't understand it.

After hearing the last part, Liu Huai didn't know whether it was a song of victory for the victorious soldiers or a hymn to Zhao Gou.

He was lost in thought for a long time in the square outside the palace, when finally a ceremonial officer led Yu Yunwen and a group of military generals towards the palace.

The collision of armor plates and the clanging of armor attracted the attention of all the palace guards.

Liu Huai and others were wearing actual infantry armor used in actual combat, which was completely different from the silk armor, paper armor and other showpieces worn by the palace guards.

Equipped with wooden hammers and swords painted with gold, which were so realistic that they looked fake, these twenty armored soldiers were full of vigor and gave the feeling of marching out of a mighty army.

Liu Huai didn't care about these gazes themselves, but they aroused some questions in him.

Why did Zhao Gou let himself wear armor and enter the palace?
What is the intention?
Before he could figure out the problem, Yu Yunwen turned around and said, "Don't be disrespectful in front of the king."

Led by Cheng Min and Li Xianzhong, the soldiers stood in two rows and entered the palace hall.

Although the Chongzheng Hall, which was used for grand court meetings, was very spacious, it was already crowded with people. Liu Huai stood in the middle and back of the military officer's queue, and an idea rose uncontrollably in his mind.

If I kill Zhao Gou with the wooden sword in my hand, can I escape?
After carefully considering the feasibility, Liu Huai silently rejected this idea.

Because Cheng Min, Li Xianzhong and their subordinates were also wearing heavy armor, the guards in the palace were holding real weapons, and there were no follow-up troops outside the imperial city, the probability of success was too low.

With a feeling of regret, Liu Huai leaned on his wooden sword, his eyes fixed on the sky, his mind wandering.

After a burst of noise, a ceremonial officer shouted loudly. Then the hall fell into silence, and an eunuch shouted, "The emperor has arrived!"

All the civil and military officials of the Song State in the hall bowed their heads and said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty is blessed."

A rather shrill voice came from the head: "I am well."

Even though he knew that any movement at this moment would be conspicuous, Liu Huai still couldn't help it and raised his head slightly to look forward.

At this moment, Zhao Gou also looked at Liu Huai.

Their eyes met in the air, and Liu Huai immediately lowered his head respectfully.

In less than a moment, Liu Huai had seen Zhao Gou's face clearly, and his first thought was, no wonder the ministers of the Jin Dynasty said that Zhao Gou was a eunuch.

Although Zhao Gou was already over fifty, his skin was fair and wrinkle-free. He was handsome, but not in the tough and heroic way, but rather had a feminine look.

More importantly, Zhao Gou did not grow a beard.

In this era where long beards are considered beautiful, although not all men have an enviable big beard like Wei Sheng, they still have to grow some beards.

For example, Liu Huai had some short beard above his lips and under his jaw at this time.

It's okay before the ceremony of wearing the cap, but if you still don't have a beard after the ceremony, officials will consider it a disgrace to official etiquette, and friends and relatives will have to quietly introduce a doctor to you.

However, although Zhao Gou was the emperor, he had a pale face and no beard. From a distance, Zhao Gou seemed no different from the eunuchs around him, and really looked like a eunuch.

Zhao Gou also just glanced at Liu Huai. Although he felt that the other party was rude, he did not get angry, and even did not feel angry.

Just like last night when he asked Yang Yi Zhong whether Liu Dalang was loyal or treacherous, and Yang Yi Zhong simply brushed the question off, Zhao Gou was too lazy to think about such an obvious question.

In the eyes of the entire Song Dynasty court, whether it is the pro-war, pro-defense or pro-peace factions, the Shandong volunteer army can be said to be loyal to the Song Dynasty, with a heart as red as the moon.

When the war situation was at its most critical, they marched south to join the fight, fighting tough and bad battles all the way, even battles of seeking death and fighting with gods. To put it bluntly, if the Jingnan Army had not fought to be the first in every battle, there might have been a big chaos in Caishiji at that time.

And if Liu Dalang had not taken the risk to lead his troops around and captured Chao County, cutting off the Jin army's retreat and forcing Wanyan Liang to turn around for a decisive battle, the Jin army might still be blocking Jiankang and shouting at Zhao Gou to fight!
Loyalty is not something that can be shouted out, but something that can be done!

As for trivial matters like killing one or two landlords, beating up the city gate guards, and having some conflicts with officials in the court, what do they matter in the face of such loyal and courageous behavior?

One should be more tolerant towards loyal ministers. Moreover, Zhao Gou's original team, the peace faction, is now in decline. In order to win over new political forces, he must show magnanimity.

The next few questions were the usual ones, such as requests for food and fodder from each army, allocation of garrisons, relief for Lianghuai, etc. Since everyone knew that the next highlight would definitely be between Wanyan Liang and the Jin envoys, there was not much talk. After the routine conversation, everyone began to look forward to what would happen next.

However, at this moment, an old man in red stepped out from the middle of the civil service line, holding up his tablet and bowing, saying, "Your Highness, Jin Anjie, has something to report."

Zhao Gou's brows twitched slightly, and then he looked at Tang Situi who was in the front row.

This guy is Tang Situi's man.

What was Tang Shitui trying to do? It was fine that he'd suppressed those meritorious officials yesterday, but why was he causing trouble in such an occasion? This wasn't just a dampener for Zhao Gou; it was a slap in the face!

However, seeing Tang Shitui's look of surprise, Zhao Gou calmed down and waited quietly.

Tang Situi's surprise was not fake.

Although Jin Anjie was his follower, this action was definitely not ordered by him.

"Yanyong, if it is not an urgent matter, please leave immediately and submit a letter to discuss the matter later." Tang Situi's expression became a little stern, and he stepped out directly to scold.

Unexpectedly, Jin Anjie just shook his head and said, "Tang, stay here. What I am discussing is a matter of 100,000 urgency."

Tang Situi's eyes fixed, and he looked deeply at Jin Anjie, then he swept his gaze over the rest of the group. Finally, he stared at Chen Kangbo, Zhang Jun, and Yu Yunwen for a moment, then he snorted coldly and turned back to the train.

No matter how powerful he was, he could not stop a fourth-rank official from speaking out. He could only find out who he had supported afterwards and then dismiss him from office and exile him.

Although Tang Situi was only the governor of Jiankang at this time, he knew that he was demoted only because he took the blame for Zhao Gou during the war. Zhao Gou himself was the leader of the peace faction. As long as Zhao Gou did not die, Tang Situi would be able to make a comeback in Zhongshan.

But there are always people in the court who fail to see the key point and turn against Zhao Gou at the critical moment. Tang Situi wants to see who instigated this and dares to spoil Zhao Gou's interest at this time.

Zhao Gou watched this scene with great interest, and then said to Jin Anjie: "Mr. Jin, please speak."

Jin Anjie took a deep breath, then bowed and said, "I impeach Ye Yiwen, the head of the Privy Council, and Liu Qi, the governor of Huainan, Zhejiang West, and Jiangnan East and West Roads, for the loss of troops and humiliation of the country, which led to the corruption of the Huai River region. In particular, Liu Qi's nephew, the commander-in-chief Liu Si, was greedy, lustful, cowardly and incompetent, which led to the great defeat of Chuzhou and the breach of the Huai River defense line by the Jin bandits. I request that they be severely punished as a token of my gratitude to the world!"

Good guy.

Liu Huai looked back at Liu Si, who was trembling violently all over, and exclaimed in his heart, "Wow!"

The political environment in Song State was really bad. Liu Qi had already died, but he was still accused of such a serious crime.

It is not known whether Jin Anjie knew about Liu Qi's death, nor is it known whether he was pretending to be ignorant or pretending to be aware.

Moreover, this Jin Anjie is so brave, which side does he belong to?

Not to mention Liu Huai, all the Song officials in the hall were thinking about this question in astonishment.

This is already the beginning of a new round of political turmoil.

Zhao Gou's expression remained unchanged. He glanced at his ministers and was also a little unsure in his heart.

Ye Yiwen was the Privy Councilor who was in charge of the war in Lianghuai, and Liu Qi was the highest military officer in Lianghuai. They were definitely responsible for the fall of Lianghuai, but they also contributed to the recovery of Lianghuai, the defeat of the main force of the Jin army, and the capture of Wanyan Liang alive.

It is also true that uncle Liu Qi and nephew Liu Si both went to Chao County to fight in person.

The premise for judging Ye Yiwen and others was that they did not acknowledge that the victory in Chao County was a great achievement. It was just an ordinary battle, and those officials who advocated for the war should not be given too many rewards and promotions.

From this perspective, it is a counterattack by the peace faction against the war faction.

But on the other hand, the timing was terrible.

Just as you said the Battle of Chao County was not a great achievement, the next moment an emperor captured alive on the battlefield was brought up. Isn't this nonsense?
From this perspective, it seems that it is not the peace faction who are causing trouble, but someone is muddying the waters.

A fourth-rank official started a political struggle by impeaching Ye Yiwen and Liu Qi. The subsequent turmoil was enough to scare many court officials.

Of course, it is not ruled out that Jin Anjie was bored and wanted to make a name for himself in history books through this incident.

Zhao Gou looked at the reactions of his ministers, laughed twice, and then said, "Jin Qing, please submit a memorial to the emperor later."

He didn't refute it on the spot, but instead put the matter aside, intending to continue judging from a superior position. Chen Kangbo frowned and was about to step out to make a suggestion when the eunuch shouted in a pinched voice, "Bring the sponsor to the emperor!"

"Bring the sponsor to the audience!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Kangbo could only sigh slightly and turned back to signal Zhang Jun and others behind him to stay calm and not cause trouble in such an important political occasion.

Soon, Ye Yiwen came ahead holding the seal and marching in square steps, while behind him was Wanyan Liang, who was wearing plain clothes and had a sneer on his face.

Ye Yiwen, who still didn't know he had become the center of the political vortex, held up the seal and bowed to Zhao Gou: "I am fortunate to have fulfilled my mission and returned victorious! I have come to hand over the seal!"

Although the Privy Councilor is theoretically the highest military commander in the country, he is not the commander-in-chief of the army. When he is in charge of a military mission, he needs the royal flag, badge, seal and other documents, and he must return them when he returns to the center.

Zhao Gou had just nodded and had not responded yet, but he only heard Wanyan Liang laughing out loud.

Liu Huai was only three steps away from Wanyan Liang and immediately knew that this guy was going to do something weird. He immediately became interested and watched his performance with his head slightly turned sideways.

Yu Yunwen's face turned ashen in an instant.

Capturing the Jin emperor this time was a stroke of luck. There is no precedent in history books, and the specific etiquette is also very worrying.

If the usual process of destroying a country was followed, Wanyan Liang would have been stripped naked and inspected along with the captives. At that time, he would have been tied up and gagged. When the emperor asked him if he knew his crime, the eunuchs following Wanyan Liang would have clamped their throats and pretended to be Wanyan Liang's voice, begging for mercy loudly.

The so-called "capture the enemy chief alive and bring him to justice" is probably the process.

However, Wanyan Liang was arrogant this time and led his troops deep into the enemy's territory alone. Although the Jin Kingdom also suffered heavy losses, it was not like the situation when Yue Fei lost all his elite troops in the Northern Expedition and the area south of Yanyun was unsafe. However, it was still a vast country.

Apart from anything else, Pushan Zhongyi still has hundreds of thousands of regular soldiers and horses under his command!
Therefore, on the issue of how to deal with Wanyan Liang, the rulers and ministers of the Song Dynasty almost immediately had a huge disagreement.

Say anything.

The more radical ones even said that giving Wanyan Liang the same treatment as the Five Kingdoms City was unruly and unfatherly.

But at the critical moment, it was Zhao Gou who made the final decision.

It is not known whether it was out of deep fear of the Jin people, or because he really had a sense of the overall situation, but Zhao Gou decided to treat him with courtesy and bring him to the hall with the etiquette of a king, instead of mixing with the captives and participating in the prisoner surrender ceremony.

Who would have thought that Wanyan Liang would be so disrespectful and would take the initiative in the hall and laugh wildly.

If an ordinary person dared to do this, he would have been knocked down by the guards long ago. However, as the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, Wanyan Liang's status was theoretically equal to that of Zhao Gou, so only Zhao Gou could order the punishment.

However, when all eyes turned to Zhao Gou, they saw that the Song emperor was standing motionless like a clay puppet.

Now even Yang Yizhong, who was holding an iron sword, couldn't figure out Zhao Gou's moves and didn't dare to make any moves for the time being.

However, according to the glorious tradition of the Song Dynasty, the government is of no use at critical moments, and one has to act impartially based on the truth!

"How dare you!" Yu Yunwen stepped forward first, pointed his spear at Wanyan Liang, and cursed loudly: "How dare you, a defeated general, act so wildly here?!"

As he said this, Yu Yunwen signaled Liu Huai to hold Wanyan Liang down.

Liu Huai pretended not to see it and continued watching the show.

Wanyan Liang knew that he would not be lucky no matter what. If nothing unexpected happened, the best outcome would be being imprisoned behind high walls and never being able to go out, so his behavior was a little crazy.

Wanyan Liang's smile suddenly faded. He ignored Yu Yunwen and pointed his finger at Zhao Gou, saying, "Song and Jin agreed to be brothers, with Jin as the elder brother and Song as the younger brother. Now that I, the elder brother, am here, how can you, the younger brother, sit here?"

As soon as Wanyan Liang said this, the Song officials in the hall felt it was absurd.

How dare you mention the Shaoxing Peace Agreement? Wasn't it you, Wanyan Liang, who tore up the peace agreement and started the war?

What followed was great anger. Chen Kangbo, Zhang Jun, Tang Situi and others stepped out and were about to shout and curse.

However, the first person to take action was Zhao Gou, who was sitting high on the dragon throne.

In full view of all the officials of the State of Song.

Amidst Wanyan Liang's triumphant laughter.

Under the incredulous gazes of the generals of the Jingnan Army.

Zhao Gou slowly stood up and bowed to Wanyan Liang, "Brother Wang, how are you?"

"I am well! Hahaha!" Wanyan Liang laughed loudly in the crowd. Although he was wearing plain clothes and a gauze crown, he looked like a real emperor.

At this moment, Liu Huai also had an urge to laugh.

Why did he have such high hopes for Zhao Gou before? Was it because he was also confused by the great victory in Chao County?
Zhao Gou was the emperor of the Song Dynasty, but he was also a coward who was frightened by the Jin army!

Two years ago, Gao Jingshan, who served as the New Year's envoy to the Kingdom of Jin, was here. Surrounded by a group of guards and ministers from the Kingdom of Song, he scolded Zhao Gou so hard that he burst into tears and ran away with his face covered!

Zhao Gou had to stand up to greet the envoys from the Jin Dynasty whenever he faced them, let alone Wanyan Liang, the real emperor of the Jin Dynasty?
However, as soon as the corners of his mouth curled up, Liu Huai felt a huge anger rising from his heart.

He suddenly remembered the ministers of the State of Song who died in this battle.

I thought of Sheng Xin.

I thought of Zhang Rong.

I thought of Li Dao.

I thought of Bi Jin.

I thought of Yu Feiying.

I thought of Shi Jun.

……

In an instant, the faces of those who had been drinking and chatting or were just acquaintances in the past appeared in Liu Huai's mind at the same time. Their wishes, their anger, their desires were mixed and twisted with their faces, and finally everyone began to shout.

"Anti-Jin!"

"Anti-Jin!"

They roared, and walked into the flesh-grinding machine with an almost fanatical attitude of martyrdom, becoming a bit of flesh and blood that nourished the world situation.

Yet, so many people sacrificed their lives bravely.

In return, he said, "Brother Wang, how are you?"

In return, I got a fucking "Brother Wang, how are you!!!"

Wanyan Liang opened his arms and laughed wildly. Yu Yunwen was extremely angry: "Left and right, capture him for me!"

However, the palace guards led by Yang Yi Zhong and Zhao Mi would not listen to Yu Yunwen's words, but just cast their eyes on Zhao Gou who was still bowing.

"Look at the king you have chosen!" Wanyan Liang's laughter suddenly stopped, and then he turned his head to look at the generals of the Jingnan Army. He swept his eyes over the faces of Xin Qiji, Jia Rui, Bi Zaiyu, and Zhang Baiyu, and then looked directly into Liu Huai's eyes.

"You chose a coward!" Wanyan Liang suddenly began to grit his teeth, as if he thought it was a grave sin for Liu Huai not to come to his rescue. "Just wait and see! Cowards can't stand warriors. Zhao Gou will definitely drag you all down with him and drown with him. Just wait and see!"

Yu Yunwen finally lost his patience and was about to pick up his tablet to beat the man himself, when Liu Huai finally felt that this farce should end.

"Shut up and give yourself some dignity." Liu Huai said coldly, stepped forward and hit Wanyan Liang's waist and abdomen with a wooden sword, and then swung it hard on his back.

Wanyan Liang's words came to an abrupt end as he was knocked to the ground. He held his stomach and bent over like a shrimp, starting to cough violently. However, the laughter mixed in with the coughing never stopped from beginning to end.

"Your Majesty, the Jin Lord is roaring in the court, which is extremely disrespectful." Liu Huai threw the wooden sword aside and bowed to Zhao Gou, who had stood up straight and stared at Wanyan Liang in a daze. He said loudly, "I beg you to execute him!"

As if they had heard some signal, the Song officials who were originally shouting and cursing in the hall turned around and bowed to Zhao Gou.

"I beg you to kill the gold master!"

Although it took only a short moment and a few words for Wanyan Liang to burst into laughter and be knocked to the ground by Liu Huai, it still made the entire court meeting a little difficult to continue.

Originally, he wanted to show off his martial arts, but because Wanyan Liang was too arrogant and Zhao Gou was too cowardly, things became a little distorted. Therefore, after Zhao Gou sat back on the throne, he just said a few perfunctory words and asked the guards to take Wanyan Liang away and keep him under good care.

Although there were some eulogies and praises afterwards, both the Song monarch and his ministers as well as Liu Huai and others found it boring. The Jin envoy Liang Qiu also came on stage to go through the motions, and after saying that the Jin wanted to negotiate peace with the Song, he was scolded out by the prime minister Chen Kangbo.

What a fucking joke! Wu Gong and Wu Lin are still fighting in Xiangfan and the northwest. You say we can negotiate peace?

I was also thinking of asking you to cede the land south of Yuguan!
As for the rewards at all levels, several generals of the Jingnan Army did not care about them and just treated them as wind blowing past their ears. Even Xin Qiji and Jia Rui had no expression on their faces when they presented the congratulatory letter on behalf of Geng Jing. They just bowed and saluted, as if they were frightened by the majesty of the Song Dynasty.

After another hour, all the ministers shouted "Long live the king" three times, and the court meeting was finally over.

Zhao Gou hurried back to his bedroom wearing a full set of formal attire and crown. After changing his clothes, he directly called Yang Yizhong.

"Zhengfu, I'm embarrassed today." Zhao Gou had no taboos when speaking to this confidant among his confidants, and his expression was a little gloomy.

Yang Yizhong was still wearing heavy armor, with a sinister look on his face. He shook his head when he heard this: "The emperor is a benevolent monarch, while the financier is a ferocious beast. The emperor can save lives, while the financier is good at killing. Killing is naturally terrifying. But as the Son of Heaven, how can killing be more important than saving lives?
As for ferocious beasts like the Gold Lord, they will naturally be resisted by minions like us, and the Emperor can just remain a peaceful emperor."

Yang Yi Zhong was indeed a yamen official, and he pleased Zhao Gou greatly with just a few words.

Being startled by a vicious dog is not a big deal, but does that mean the dog is more noble than a human? Furthermore, the vicious dog is now locked in a cage, at the mercy of others.

"Zhengfu, you do make sense." Zhao Gou said, and then sighed again: "I really don't want to bother with these nonsense anymore. What's the point of advocating for war or peace? Look at that guy Jin Anjie, he's going to start causing trouble again today. Just thinking about it gives me a headache."

Zhao Gou shook his head, and then remembered the scene of looking down at Wanyan Liang lying on the ground in pain with his hands covering his stomach, and he couldn't help but laugh again.

Suddenly I felt that the Jin people were not so scary anymore.

When he thought of this, Zhao Gou felt relaxed all over, and even the thing under his crotch began to stir, which made him surprised and happy.

This hasn't happened in thirty years.

"Zhengfu, Liu Huai and Xin Qiji are doing very well today. They are both loyal and good people of the Great Song Dynasty. You should go there in person, reward them with some gold and silver, and give them some words of encouragement. Tell them..." Zhao Gou hesitated slightly before continuing, "I intend to leave these young people to the Crown Prince as his long-term subjects."

"Yes!" Yang Yizhong bowed in agreement.

After he left, Zhao Gou sat on the bed and waved to a eunuch beside him: "Erlang."

Zhang Quwei, the chief bailiff who had been recalled, immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty."

"Go ahead." Zhao Gou stood up and asked the other eunuchs to help him change his clothes. "Go find a slender woman with a clean background to sleep with you."

Zhang Quwei raised his head, surprised and happy. He quickly agreed and ran out in small steps.

He was so surprised that he tripped and fell to the ground when passing the threshold, and rolled all over the floor. He didn't even have time to pick up his fallen hat, and ran madly towards the harem.

The official has tested positive again, this is a big deal!
