Chapter 732 Emperor Gaozong of Song: Those who are not of our race will surely have different hearts [2nd update]

"Protecting the Emperor——"

Qiu Yue and Liu Guangshi were prepared and immediately stood on either side of Emperor Gaozong of Song.

Qiu Yue was the chief instructor of the 800,000 Imperial Guards, and the superior of Zhou Ang and Lin Chong.

He and Zhou Ang were known for their "repeated feats of merit, fame overseas, profound martial arts skills, and awe-inspiring presence in the capital," possessing the courage of ten thousand men!
The reason why Qiu Yue is not well-known is mainly because he died unjustly in the original work.

He made a grand entrance, but was hit in the face by a stone from Zhang Qing and fell off his horse.

Although there was no danger to his life, he lost four teeth and his nose and lips were broken.

Later, they suffered losses in the naval battle, and Yang Lin took advantage of them on the ship, cutting them off with a single blow.

Zhou Ang, who was often compared to Qiu Yue, was much luckier.

Because Qiu Yue had been hit by Zhang Qing's flying stone first, and Zhang Qing then feigned defeat and fled, Zhou Ang did not pursue him.

Later, Qiu Yue traveled by water, while Zhou Ang traveled by land.

Zhou Ang fought Lu Junyi for more than twenty rounds without a clear winner, but Zhou Ang escaped because all the ambushers came out.

Shi Wengong, who was slightly inferior to Lu Junyi, once injured Qin Ming in just over twenty rounds.

By extension, Zhou Ang's strength is even greater than Qin Ming's.

Qiu Yue can be compared to Zhou Ang, so even if his strength is not as good as Zhou Ang's, he should at least be on par with Qin Ming.

He rushed forward, drew his sword, and stabbed Qu Lichuqing in the throat!

Liu Guangshi was a step slower than him, so he had to shout loudly:

"The surrendered general Qu Lichuqing harbored treacherous intentions and attempted assassination, but he has been executed on the spot!"

Emperor Gaozong of Song, embracing "Princess Chongde," snorted coldly:
"My brother-in-law said, 'Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts,' and it is indeed true!"

Emperor Gaozong of Song grabbed his wine cup and smashed it on the ground, shouting:
"Guards! Slaughter this gang of Liao dogs!"

Previously, the Southern Song soldiers seemed to have slunk away, but in fact they were hiding nearby, eating dry rations and waiting for orders.

At this moment, Emperor Gaozong of Song smashed his cup as a signal, and the Southern Song soldiers, who were full of pent-up anger, immediately charged out!
"Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!"

Upon seeing that the Liao soldiers were too poisoned to stand, the Southern Song soldiers charged forward like wolves and tigers, slaughtering them indiscriminately!

These five or six thousand elite Liao soldiers were powerless to fight back and were slaughtered by the Southern Song soldiers, leaving corpses strewn across the fields and rivers of blood!
Before Qu Liqing breathed her last, she glared fiercely at "Princess Chongde" who was embracing Emperor Gaozong of Song.

Clutching the handkerchief embroidered with a pair of ducks tightly in his hand, Quli Chuqing died with his eyes wide open in disbelief...

"Humph!"

Emperor Gaozong of Song curled his lip. These Liao dogs only gave them a little kindness, and they took advantage of it!

Fortunately, these Liao people were all brawn and no brains; the Grand Tutor easily outmaneuvered them with a simple trick.

He led "Princess Chongde" into a side hall, where several other people were also drinking.

Emperor Gaozong of Song looked at the white-haired old man sitting in the middle and said with sincere admiration:
"Grand Tutor's brilliant plan brought peace to the world; he beheaded the false emperor and destroyed the Liao!"

"That's truly killing two birds with one stone! I admire it greatly!"

The white-haired old man was none other than Grand Tutor Cai Jing. Cai Jing rose and bowed to Emperor Gaozong of Song with a smile:

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, your wish has been fulfilled!"

Then Cai Jing looked at Qin Hui with admiration: "However, this brilliant plan was originally presented by Imperial Censor Qin."

"This old minister only added two points for him."

Qin Hui quickly and modestly replied, "Your subject dares not take credit; it is the Grand Tutor's addition of these two points that is the finishing touch!"

Cai Jing nodded in satisfaction, feeling that he had indeed made the right choice in cultivating Qin Hui.

Emperor Gaozong of Song was very happy, and thus fulfilled his promise without hesitation:

"Grand Tutor deserves the greatest credit, I hereby bestow upon you the title of 'Loyal Prince'!"

Cai Jing was overjoyed and immediately bowed, saying, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Gaozong then looked at Qin Hui: "Qin Aiqing, you have also made great contributions! I keep my word, from now on you will be the Vice Minister of War!"
"You will need to offer me more advice and strategies in the future!"

Qin Hui was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down on the ground:
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. I am willing to serve you with all my heart and soul, even unto death!"

Emperor Gaozong of Song laughed heartily, finally able to unify half of the country!

Unfortunately, there was also the King of Qi...

Previously, Emperor Gaozong of Song had not been able to eat and drink well while he was away from home, so now he could finally relax and drink with Cai Jing and Qin Hui.

After Emperor Gaozong sat down, "Princess Chongde" approached again, but Emperor Gaozong coldly pushed her away.

"You smell like a Liaoning dog, go change your clothes!"

"what?"

Princess Chongde looked completely bewildered:
Do I smell? If you do, you were just hugging me!
She was merely a famous courtesan in Jiangzhou, and dared not argue with Emperor Gaozong of Song. She could only retreat in humiliation.

Emperor Gaozong glanced at Qin Hui, who understood immediately and got up to follow him out.

Princess Chongde, unaware that Qin Hui was following her, was suddenly pushed into the darkness when she reached the corner!
"嘤咛!"

Princess Chongde fell flat on her face, and before she could even react, someone was already riding on her!

Qin Hui unbuckled his belt and grabbed "Princess Chongde" by the neck from behind, tightening it fiercely!

Princess Chongde scratched the ground until it was covered in scratches, and it took her a long time to finally stop scratching.

Qin Hui checked Princess Chongde's breath and, after confirming she was dead, threw her into the dry well.

Pulling up his trousers and fastening his belt, Qin Hui tidied himself up and leisurely went back to drink.

When Emperor Gaozong of Song saw that Qin Hui had returned, he cast an inquiring glance at him.

Qin Hui nodded in acknowledgment.

Emperor Gaozong of Song raised his wine cup with satisfaction:
"I toast you all! My beloved ministers, please drink this cup to the brim!"

After serving Emperor Gaozong of Song well, Qin Hui returned to his room after the music ended and the audience dispersed.

The candles were lit, and it was discovered that there were people in the dark room, and more than one.

Several burly men stared fiercely at him, while a man with eagle eyes sat quietly at the table, sipping tea.

Qin Hui immediately bowed and scraped before the hawk-eyed man:

"Thank you for your guidance, strategist. I have been promoted!"

The hawk-eyed man chuckled and helped Qin Hui up.
"As expected of the rising star highly recommended by King Zhao!"

"Indeed, he is capable of great use!"

Qin Hui smiled ingratiatingly and said, "The King of Zhao is my mentor!"
"Without King Zhao, I wouldn't be where I am today!"

It turns out that Cai Fu's time travel disrupted the plot, and Zhang Bangchang became the Prefect of Kaifeng.

Later, when Qin Hui took the imperial examination, Zhang Bangchang served as Qin Hui's chief examiner, thus establishing a teacher-student relationship between Qin Hui and Zhang Bangchang.

Zhang Bangchang colluded with the Jin Dynasty and became a traitor, so he recruited Qin Hui, his student, as his subordinate.

Qin Hui also became a traitor, so he concealed his relationship with Zhang Bangchang.

At present, no one in the Southern Song court under Emperor Gaozong knew that Qin Hui and Zhang Bangchang were teacher and student, but the Jin state did.

Hami Chi, the military strategist of the Jin Dynasty, was guided by Zhang Bangchang to make contact with Qin Hui.

During the Tokyo Rebellion, Qin Hui was terrified by the Jin army and fled, thus failing to witness the might of the Qi army.

With the added influence of Zhang Bangchang's brainwashing, Qin Hui now held the Jin state in great awe and was willing to be its lackey.

Qin Hui was envious of Zhang Bangchang's appointment as the Prince of Zhao to guard Daming Prefecture, and he also longed to be made a prince.
Hami Chi was very satisfied with Qin Hui's performance:

"As long as you obey, you will have everything that the King of Zhao has."

Qin Hui: or2
The next update will definitely be very late, so if you can't wait, get some rest.
