Li Gang watched the Qin Emperor, dressed in the Golden Dragon Robe, slowly depart, feeling a deep sense of sadness.
Once again, the Peace Faction had gained the upper hand. They were merely incompetent officials, appearing righteous but lacking any foresight, harming both the country and its people.
However, this time was different; it could potentially lead to a national disaster.
He hurriedly chased after the emperor, intending to catch up and explain himself, hoping to persuade him to retract his decree and heed his advice.
Qin Feng also pursued him, as he was a member of the War Faction, unlike those foolish members of the Peace Faction.
Bai Shizhong and Li Bangyan did not rush down immediately; they waited to see the spectacle, enjoying the sight of the War Faction's helplessness.
Li Gang and Qin Feng ran forward but were stopped before they could reach the emperor.
Several Imperial Guards clad in Black Armor and wearing Black Hooded Helmets blocked their path.
They stood firm, extending their muscular arms to prevent passage.
One of them said, "The emperor has already issued a decree. Please return, gentlemen! The matter has been settled. Do not make things difficult for others; please go back!"
Li Gang was naturally dissatisfied and wanted to push past these Imperial Guards to continue pursuing the emperor and explain himself.
The Imperial Guards blocked him, with one even pushing him back and warning him not to act like a hero, or there would be serious consequences.
With no choice left, he sighed several times, looking quite helpless.
Qin Feng followed closely behind him. When he was pushed back, he stumbled backward but managed to catch himself with Li Gang's help before falling to the ground.
The two had no choice but to give up; it seemed that they truly could not get through this, and the decree would not change.
Bai Shizhong and Li Bangyan laughed heartily, then coldly snorted a couple of times, showing their disdain before turning around and striding out.
They looked quite pleased with themselves, as if they were above others.
Li Gang and Qin Feng also slowly walked outside, feeling a heavy sense of oppression; it was astonishing that incompetent officials could still rise to such high positions.
Li Gang felt that the current Qin Feng was like a different person—loyal and brave for the country, no longer the foolish and corrupt individual he once was.
Perhaps it was due to having suffered a serious illness that he had come to understand certain matters.
However, he still wanted to hear his true thoughts. With incompetent officials in power and weak troops, the Great Song was indeed in great danger!
He said, "Qin Feng, tell me immediately: if the Jin Army reaches Tokyo City, will you abandon the city and flee, disregarding the lives of the Great Song's people, or will you hold your ground and fight to the death?"
Qin Feng was taken aback; such dire words were indeed very insightful.
He quickly replied, "If over a hundred thousand troops from the Jin Kingdom reach Tokyo City, as the Vice Commander of the Cavalry, I will certainly fight to the death, slaying all the bandits to protect my Great Song. I will never abandon the city."
Li Gang looked at him excitedly. After his serious illness, he had indeed undergone a transformation—radiating masculinity and courage, shedding the cowardice of a civil official.
In that brief moment, one could not lie; it was impossible to fabricate such passionate words. He would surely become a Loyal Minister in the future, perhaps even a General.
He said, "Good, Qin Feng. I truly did not misjudge you. Remember your words today; if you do not follow through, I will not spare you."
Qin Feng also agreed repeatedly. Li Gang truly deserves to be the future Chancellor, having successfully repelled the formidable Jin Army and pushed them back all the way to Tokyo City.
It was indeed very impressive; it would be a pity if he didn't become a General.
It was still not dark this afternoon; it was only around five o'clock when Qin Feng returned to his residence.
He also went to the Cavalry Command Office, where most of the affairs had been handled. There were still some matters left, but he decided not to deal with them now; it could wait until tomorrow.
Of course, he changed into ordinary clothes and did not wear that heavy black armor, which felt quite cumbersome and looked somewhat awkward.
When Qin Feng arrived at the back garden of his residence, feeling a bit annoyed, he thought about relaxing among the flowers and plants there.
He noticed two Gorgeous Beauties standing there, seemingly admiring the flowers, some of which were still blooming vibrantly.
One of them had a tall and voluptuous figure, with curves in all the right places, wearing a Red Robe; she was none other than his Primary Wife, Xi Yue.
She was looking to the side with another beauty and did not notice his arrival.
The other beauty was dressed in a light white robe, standing nearly 1.7 meters tall, just slightly shorter than his Primary Wife.
She was also quite beautiful, with delicate features, fair skin, and a slender figure. Her face bore a smile that exuded warmth and charm; she was truly a stunning woman.
Her long black hair flowed down to her waist, looking very graceful and enchanting.
Most women prefer to style their long hair up in an elegant manner, giving off a mature vibe. She had her hair adorned with numerous golden hairpins.
The unmarried women of the Scholarly Family did not tie their hair up; instead, they let it flow freely, which made them appear ethereal and pure.
The woman in the white robe also saw Qin Feng, her face adorned with a smile and tenderness.
She said, "Brother Qin, you’re back! Why are you back so early today? It’s still light out."
Qin Feng felt a bit dizzy upon seeing her enchanting demeanor; she resembled a neighbor's younger sister, now grown up, exuding an innocent charm.
She was like the beautiful campus flower of a prestigious university, possessing much knowledge and grace, yet very gentle and pure—just that kind of feeling.
Surprisingly, she recognized him, but he truly could not recall her or even her name.
Primary Wife Xi Yue also heard this and turned her voluptuous body around. Her face was heavily made up, appearing very mature and captivating, losing the ethereal feel of a white-clad fairy, radiating femininity and beauty!
She knew that Qin Feng lacked his previous memories, but he exuded more masculine charm, which she found appealing.
She intervened, saying, "This is my good friend Zhao Man. Her father is the court's High Official Zhao Ding. She came to keep me company because I’ve been feeling bored these past few days."
Qin Feng learned her name: "So you’re Man. You truly are as beautiful as the moon and flowers, gentle and charming. You should spend more time with your sister; it must be lonely for her at home."
Dressed in white, Zhao Man felt very pleased upon hearing Qin Feng praise her. She had always felt like he was a big brother from the neighborhood—someone very refined whom she admired.
A soft blush appeared on her face, along with more warmth in her expression.
Unexplainably, she felt a few strands of affection arise within her as she looked at his handsome figure, feeling somewhat shy.
"Brother Qin, why are you praising me so much? Am I really that stunningly beautiful, gentle and charming? This is the first time someone has complimented me like this. Aren't you afraid of making your sister jealous?"
"Does Brother Qin prefer my gentle charm, or does he favor his sister's mature allure?"
These words came from the heart, and she couldn't hold back her feelings any longer; she truly had a crush on Brother Qin.
Qin Feng initially nodded in agreement, but upon hearing the latter part of her statement, he felt something was off.
What does Neighboring Sister Zhao Man mean by this? Could it be that she has taken a liking to him? How bold of her, especially with the Primary Wife right beside him.
Then he noticed the expression on Primary Wife Xi Yue's face; although she was smiling, her demeanor gradually darkened, revealing a hint of anger as she looked at him.
She even shot him a couple of glances filled with disdain; she was clearly jealous.
Zhao Man also regained her composure, her face flushed with embarrassment, resembling a girl experiencing her first crush. She began to apologize to Xi Yue, explaining that she was just joking earlier.
"Please don't be jealous, sister. I was only joking just now. Brother Qin nodded without realizing what I said afterward. Don't take it to heart, sister."
