Chapter 259 Finally meet
Chapter 259 Finally meet
Yue Fei stood up slowly, and the four words "Serve the country with loyalty and zeal" on his back seemed to emit a blazing light.
He turned and walked out of the house, looking at his fellow villagers gathered outside, his eyes full of determination and resolve.
"Let's go. Let's join the army and go to the battlefield to serve our country."
The fellow villager nodded vigorously, with the same passion and enthusiasm burning in his eyes.
The group simply packed up their bags and had just walked less than ten miles when they heard the sound of hurried horse hooves in the distance.
Yue Fei and his fellow villagers stopped and looked in the direction of the sound in confusion.
I saw a guard and a fellow villager riding horses at full speed, raising a cloud of dust.
The guard dismounted and walked quickly to Yue Fei, panting slightly and saying, "General Yue, please wait. We are entrusted by the noble, and we have come to visit you after hearing your name. Please wait for a moment."
Yue Fei was slightly stunned, and a surge of curiosity arose in his heart.
Call yourself General!
Or a noble person?
Who is this person?
Why would you come looking for him?
But since the other party specially sent someone to inform me, it must be something important.
So, Yue Fei nodded slightly and decided to stop and wait.
The fellow villagers also looked at each other with confusion in their eyes. They didn't know who this sudden visitor was and why he was looking for Yue Fei.
But judging from the guards' anxious look, this person must be extraordinary.
Yue Fei hesitated for a moment and asked, "Which noble is looking for me? What's the matter?"
The guard bowed slightly and replied respectfully: "General, I am not in a position to tell you. I am only here to tell you. Please wait for a moment. Your Excellency will be here soon."
Yue Fei's curiosity grew stronger, but he also understood that he could only wait patiently.
He nodded slightly, signaling the guards and fellow villagers to take a break.
I stood there quietly, with both expectation and vigilance in my eyes.
He didn't know what opportunities or challenges the upcoming noble person would bring him, but he was ready to deal with everything.
It was not until that night that Li Chengqian and his party finally arrived.
Yue Fei was stunned when he saw nearly a thousand war horses galloping towards him.
His eyes were fixed on the galloping horses, full of shock.
You know, it is not easy for the imperial court to gather a thousand war horses. It requires huge manpower, material resources and financial resources.
Who are these people? There are only dozens of them, but they own nearly a thousand war horses? !
His heart was filled with doubts and curiosity.
Yue Fei's eyes moved back and forth between Ma Qun and Li Chengqian and others, trying to find the answer from them.
He saw the Ming Guang armor on Li Chengqian and others. Isn’t this armor from the Tang Dynasty?
The armor of the Song Dynasty's infantrymen was obviously different in style from the Ming Dynasty's armor.
How could anyone make this kind of armor nowadays?
There are also these people with confidence and calmness on their faces, as if everything is under their control.
Yue Fei secretly guessed in his heart that these people might be from a powerful force or have a special mission.
A strong sense of anticipation surged in his heart, eager to know the true identities and purposes of these people.
Li Chengqian and Li Shimin sat on horseback, their eyes fixed on Yue Fei.
They saw that Yue Fei's posture was as straight as a pine tree, his face was resolute, and his eyes revealed determination and courage.
His noble and upright character made people respect him.
Li Chengqian nodded slightly, secretly praising in his heart: "Yue Fei is indeed worthy of his reputation. This momentum alone is extraordinary."
Li Shimin also had a burning gaze. He looked at Yue Fei as if he saw himself when he was young.
The spirit of moving forward bravely and not fearing strong enemies made him feel proud.
"What a hero! If there were such a man in the Song Dynasty, if the Song Dynasty was not incompetent, there would be no need to worry about the Jin army not retreating!"
Li Shimin secretly sighed in his heart and his admiration for Yue Fei was beyond words.
Everyone dismounted and came to Yue Fei, looking at each other.
In this quiet night, the eyes of both sides met, as if an invisible force was colliding in the air.
This is a fateful encounter and the beginning of a legend.
Everyone dismounted, and the steady footsteps sounded particularly clear in the silent night.
They slowly came up to Yue Fei, their eyes met, and the air was filled with a tense and expectant atmosphere.
The guard who had come to report the news earlier intervened and saluted: "Your Majesty, Your Highness!!"
His voice broke the silence, but it was like a thunder exploding in Yue Fei's ears.
Yue Fei was shocked!
His eyes were full of astonishment and disbelief.
His Majesty! !
Could it be that the person in front of me is the emperor and the prince?
His brain was working rapidly and countless questions arose in his mind.
He looked carefully at Li Shimin and Li Chengqian in front of him, trying to find the answer from their expressions and temperament.
His body tensed up involuntarily.
The shock in Yue Fei's heart took a long time to subside, and his eyes swept back and forth between Li Shimin and Li Chengqian.
The two people in front of me are definitely not the emperor and the prince.
In his impression and from what he had heard, the emperor and the recently abdicated emperor were both men of letters who governed the country with literature and paid attention to etiquette and culture.
The murderous aura emanating from the two people in front of him was definitely not something that a scholar could emit.
It is a kind of cold breath that can only be honed through battlefields and bloody battles.
And those people standing behind him, each of them exudes a domineering aura.
They stand tall and straight with determined eyes, as if they were gods of war walking down from the battlefield.
Their presence makes people feel a strong sense of oppression, as if as long as they stand there, they can intimidate all enemies.
Yue Fei bowed and said, "May I ask where you are from, Your Majesty and Your Highness? The Zhao Song Dynasty is now in power. You are not some bandit who has declared himself emperor, like the bandits like Song Jiang and Fang La!"
There was a tone of vigilance and questioning in his words, and his eyes were fixed on the people in front of him.
Li Chengqian laughed loudly upon hearing this: "Do you believe me if I say I am Li Chengqian and he is Li Shimin?"
There was a hint of joking and mocking in his tone, and it seemed that he didn't expect Yue Fei to believe it.
Who would have thought that Yue Fei was just stunned for a moment, then nodded solemnly and said: "I believe it!"
There was no trace of doubt in his eyes, as if this was the most natural answer.
Now it was the turn of Li Chengqian, Li Shimin and others to be shocked!
Do you believe this?
They originally thought that Yue Fei would question and ask further questions, but they did not expect that he believed their words so decisively.
So what to say next?
Everyone was in an awkward situation for a moment; they didn't know how to respond to Yue Fei's trust.
Li Chengqian's smile froze on his face, and Li Shimin also frowned slightly, thinking about what to do next.
In this unexpected situation, they need to re-examine Yue Fei in front of them...
