When Yue Fei saw this person, he immediately asked in surprise.

"Kou Cheng, what are you doing here? According to reason, you should be in Kaifeng at most."

Kou Cheng was the deputy general who was sent by me to handle the affairs of the "backyard" a few days ago.

He glanced at me, smirked after getting permission, pointed to the hot air balloon in the sky, and replied.

"As per the strategist's orders, I came here by riding that treasure, and I have destroyed the Jin dynasty."

Upon hearing this, the other deputy generals showed envy, as leveling the capital of the Jin dynasty was the long-cherished wish of the people of Song.

But Yue Fei furrowed his brows, suddenly drew his precious sword from his waist and pressed it against Kou Cheng's neck, asking in a stern voice.

"Where are the two emperors now? Speak quickly."

Kou Cheng had to look at me with eyes seeking help.

I stepped forward, whispered to Yue Fei.

"General, instead of inquiring about the safety of the families of the generals, you are asking about the useless and incompetent two emperors. Is this approach worthy of the trust of the generals?"

However, Yue Fei remained unmoved and suddenly shouted loudly.

"Tell me, where are the two emperors now?"

I pushed away Yue Fei's sword and said.

"Let me tell you, Emperor Hui died in Wuguo City five years ago, and Emperor Qin is now in Lin'an."

"And let me also tell you, if Kou Cheng hadn't made this trip, we wouldn't have had the time to eliminate the Jin dynasty, and the families of the generals would not have survived until now."

Just as Yue Fei was about to say something, a rider on a black horse rushed in from a distance, and the messenger holding a golden token shouted loudly.

"By the Emperor's decree, General Yue Fei is commanded to return to the capital to pay homage."

I thought to myself that Zhao Gou's heart was really vicious, as he was already planning to deal with Yue Fei immediately after the Jin dynasty was defeated.

Perhaps before, he feared that if Yue Fei brought back Emperors Hui and Qin, it would affect his throne, but now he was probably concerned that Yue Fei had gained too much power.

For Yue Fei, who valued loyalty to the emperor greatly, this time he naturally had to return, but with my insistence, he finally brought the soldiers along.

The group headed straight towards the capital after a few days of marching.

After a few days of marching, they arrived outside the capital, only to be stopped by a group of imperial guards.

A commander shouted loudly from the city wall, allowing only Yue Fei to enter.

Upon hearing this, I knew that Yue Fei's situation was dangerous.

However, Yue Fei did not believe in superstitions, so he took off his armor and rode alone towards the imperial palace.

As I expected, news soon came from the city that Yue Fei was intending to rebel and was to be executed immediately.

I immediately gave the order, and a dozen hot air balloons flew over from the mountains.

Then, with the soldiers, we crossed the city walls and headed straight to the execution ground.

By this time, Yue Fei had been bound in irons on the execution platform, and an executioner stood ready to carry out the sentence.

Not far away, Zhao Gou, Qin Hui, and others were sitting on the execution platform.

Suddenly, Qin Hui shouted.

"By the Emperor's decree, Yue Fei is guilty of treason and is to be executed immediately."

He then threw a token to the ground.

Without saying a word, the executioner raised his sword to execute the order, which made Kou Cheng, who was with me, extremely nervous, wishing to jump straight from the hot air balloon to block the blow for Yue Fei.

Seeing the opportunity, I aimed my gun at the executioner and fired.

At the same time, I ordered the imperial guards outside the city to attack, and instructed the soldiers to reduce the weight of the hot air balloons to descend quickly.

Bang.

After a gunshot, the executioner and the sword fell to the ground.

"Assassin, protect the Emperor! Assassin, protect the Emperor!"

While Qin Hui was shouting loudly, he crawled under a table nearby.

At this moment, the sounds of swords and shouts from the execution ground continued.

Kou Cheng hurriedly said.

"Strategist, the imperial guards have entered the city."

"Go down and capture that dog Emperor and Qin Hui for me."

After I gave the order, Kou Cheng, along with several soldiers, descended first on ropes.

The imperial guards of this Southern Song small court had never experienced such a multidimensional attack with the Imperial Guards below and hot air balloons above.

Especially those imperial guards who had lived in the capital for a long time were as fragile as tofu, and were quickly subdued.

I ordered the soldiers to lift up the battered Yue Fei.

Just then, a ministerial-looking person rushed towards me in a stride.
