Perhaps influenced by the situation, Luo Cong said, "Since Brother Xiao is so determined, I will accompany you on this trip."
He Yuanshan didn't expect that these two guys would actually dare to touch him.
The two memorials were sent to the capital by express courier.
One letter was from the Imperial City Guard, which took the secret route; the other was from Luo Cong, which took the official route.
Before this memorial arrived in Tokyo, the city was already engulfed in a violent storm.
The memorial impeaching Yue Fei, a major general of the Imperial Guard, was presented to the emperor in the court, in front of all the civil and military officials.
In the Song Dynasty, the military was always the most sensitive issue.
Therefore, the power to deploy troops was controlled by the Privy Council.
Later, the emperor reformed the military system, and the Central Treasury and the Privy Council jointly held the power to deploy troops.
If a local military officer mobilizes troops without authorization, the imperial court will consider it treason and rebellion, a capital offense!
"Your Majesty, Yue Fei, a junior general of the Imperial Guard, has privately mobilized troops to attack the Jiangling Prefecture Garrison, which has violated the military law of the Great Song Dynasty. We request Your Majesty to allow the Censorate to send someone to Jiangling Prefecture to arrest Yue Fei!"

Looking at Zong Ze, who was quite old, and who had come here to plead for Yue Fei, Zhao Huan felt a little sad.
In this timeline, Yue Fei was indeed someone he found, but Zong Ze's relationship with Yue Fei remained that of teacher and student.
However, as Xu Churen said: If Your Majesty does not punish Yue Fei today, tomorrow there may be military generals in the Northwest who privately mobilize troops, and the day after tomorrow there will be military generals in Yan and Yun who will follow suit. Your Majesty is the ruler of the world and cannot violate the laws of the Great Song Dynasty because of personal desires and personal feelings! Otherwise, there will be a danger of collapse!
