Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

A moment later, a hundred household officials came here with seven or eight personal guards.

"My lord, it's right there!" The soldier who reported the message stood behind the hundred household officer and pointed towards Chen Xinjia's place.

At this time, Chen Xinjia did not leave, and was still lying there, so the hundred household officials saw him immediately.

The Hundred Household Officer looked at Chen Xinjia who was lying on the edge of the moat, and frowned tightly, "Looking at the clothes these people are wearing, they should not be Zhao's soldiers. But why did they appear here?

Ask them and find out who they really are. "

As soon as Baihuguan's voice fell, the soldier standing beside Baihuguan took a deep breath, sank his breath, and shouted at Chen Xinjia, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Chen Xinjia was scolding the British Duke and the others when he suddenly heard a voice from the top of the city.

Chen Xinjia looked back and found a large group of people looking at him on the city wall behind him.

Chen Xinjia hurriedly stood up from the ground and shouted towards the city wall, "I am Chen Xinjia, the right servant of the Ministry of War, open the city gate quickly. A group of soldiers and horses are chasing us!"

Chen Xinjia kept shouting at the top of his voice.

"Chen Xinjia, the right servant of the Ministry of War? Well done, why did he run out of the city? Shouldn't he be in the city?" Bai Hu looked bewildered.

Only Chongzhen knew that Chen Xinjia went to Xuanzhen to seek peace, so the hundred household officials did not know why Chen Xinjia suddenly appeared outside the city.

"Tell him, why should we believe him." Baihu looked at the soldier who shouted.

The soldier coughed twice, then repeated Baihu's words, and shouted loudly at Chen Xinjia.

"I have my ID card here. You put down the suspension bridge and put a hanging basket down. I can put my ID card in the suspension bridge. You can pull it up and have a look. What I said is true, I didn't lie to you " Chen Xinjia took out his identity certificate and his official seal, waving them in his hands.

The hundreds of household officials on the city wall saw that Chen Xinjia's appearance didn't look like he was lying, so he said to the soldiers beside him, "You first put down the drawbridge and hang up his identity certificate.

I will report this matter to the Duke of England. His Majesty has sent a message that the city gates are not allowed to be opened casually within a few days. "

Baihu said and led his guards towards the place where the Duke of England was.

The place where Chen Xinjia was located was outside the city wall where the west gate was located, and the place where the Duke of England was located was the city wall where the south gate was located.

The distance between the two is still relatively large, so Baihu walked for a long time to get to the British park.

Sitting in the gate building of the south city gate, Yingying Gong looked at the hundreds of households standing in front of him, and said with a look of surprise: "Chen Xinjia, the right servant of the Ministry of War? Why is he outside the city? Recently, he He is highly valued by His Majesty, so why did he suddenly appear outside the city? And he was hunted down by a group of bandits?"

"My lord, I really don't know about this young man." Baihu replied.

"Forget it, after finding out his identity, let's hang him up in a hanging basket." The British Duke waved his hand at the hundred household officer and said.

The British Duke did not know that Chen Xinjia was sent by Chongzhen to Xuanzhen to seek peace, otherwise, it would be impossible for the hundred household officials to hang Chen Xinjia up in a hanging basket.

The Hundred Household Officer waved his hand at Chen Xinjia, "Go and make arrangements."

The Hundred Household Officer saluted, and then headed towards the West Gate with his personal guards.

When Baihu came to the west gate, Chen Xinjia had already walked through the moat, and his identity certificate and official seal were all hung up.

Not far away, seven or eight pursuers looked at Chen Xinjia who was walking through the moat, and their expressions changed drastically.

One of the leading pursuers was horrified, "No, Chen Xinjia was hanged up, hurry up and catch up!"

As the lead pursuer spoke, he led these men and ran towards Chen Xinjia.

However, they are still some distance away from where Chen Xinjia is, and they won't be able to catch up for a while.

"My lord, can you see if these things are real?" One took Chen Xinjia's identity certificate and official seal out of the hanging basket on the ground, and handed them to Baihu.

Baihu looked at it carefully for a while, "It should be true, okay, find a few big hanging baskets and hang them up. At the same time, put away the suspension bridge to prevent accidents."

Just as the Baihu officer finished speaking, a sound of hoofbeats came.

Chen Xinjia turned his head and looked, his face changed drastically.

He hurriedly shouted at the city wall, "This group of people is chasing me, quickly raise the suspension bridge up!"

The hundred household officials looked at the pursuers rushing towards Chen Xinjia, and hurriedly yelled at the soldiers on the top of the wall, "Raise the suspension bridge up quickly, and lift Chen Xinjia up. If there is anything wrong with Chen Xinjia, we will definitely be in trouble." Let's go."

The defenders on the city wall hurriedly lifted the suspension bridge up and put the hanging basket down at the same time.

When the pursuers came to the side of the moat, the drawbridge had already risen up.

"Damn, damn, let him run away." A chasing soldier kept wandering around the edge of the moat, pointing at Chen Xinjia arrogantly and yelling.

"What to do? What to do? What shall we do now?"

The pursuers looked at the drawbridge that had been put away, and began to discuss in frustration.

"Damn, damn, Xuanzhen did it on purpose, they did it on purpose. They didn't want to accept our surrender at all, hmph, if they were willing to accept our surrender. Then they shouldn't release Chen Xinjia in advance, and they will We stayed for so long.

They even kept us under surveillance and forbade us to move around at will.In this way, there is no way for us to report this matter back in advance, damn Xuanzhen Chief Soldier, damn it! "

The leading pursuers rode on their horses, shouting and cursing non-stop.

He looked at Chen Xinjia who was slowly ascending in the hanging basket, his face was full of despair.

When Chen Xinjia reached the city wall, his heart was ashamed, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.

"It's over, it's over." The leading pursuer looked at Chen Xinjia who had ascended, regretful.

As soon as Chen Xinjia climbed onto the city wall, the hundred household officials on the city wall stood in front of him.

"Are you really Chen Xinjia, the right servant of the Ministry of War?" the hundred household officer asked.

Chen Xinjia pointed to the identity certificate and official seal placed on the ground next to him, and said loudly: "This matter can be false? As for why I appeared outside the city, this is a confidential matter, so I can't say anything.

By the way, why didn't your city gates open today? "

"Master Chen, the situation is like this..." Baihu explained in detail what happened from last night to now.

"You mean the person guarding the city wall is the British Duke?" Chen Xinjia's face changed drastically, and he looked at Baihu in disbelief.

Hundreds of households didn't know why Chen Xinjia was so excited, but they didn't ask, "Mr. Ying is the admiral of the Beijing camp. Is there any problem with him leading the troops to guard the city wall?"

Chen Xinjia hurriedly calmed down, "No problem, no problem. I want to see His Majesty now, so you don't have to follow me."

As Chen Xinjia said, he picked up the things on the ground and ran towards the bottom of the city wall with his guards.

Baihu looked at Chen Xinjia, who was in a hurry, and muttered in confusion, "Is this burning your ass? Why are you in such a hurry?"

After Chen Xinjia ran down the city wall, he went straight to the palace.

The imperial palace was far away from the city gate. When Chen Xinjia came to the imperial palace, he was exhausted and gasping for breath.

Chen Xinjia squatted on the ground outside the palace gate, wheezing non-stop.

He felt a fire burning in his lungs, and his throat was almost dry and smoking.

A few quarters of an hour later, Chen Xinjia came to the imperial study room led by the big Han general in the palace.

"I pay homage to Your Majesty!" Chen Xinjia hurriedly knelt down in the center of the imperial study room, and made a big salute to Chongzhen.

Chongzhen looked at Chen Xinjia, who was kneeling in the middle of the imperial study room, with a gloomy expression.

The peace petition was unsuccessful, so that Zhao Wenbing sent 20 troops to attack Henan, and Chongzhen had no reason to smile at Chen Xinjia.

"You still know to come back?" Chongzhen snorted coldly, and the atmosphere in the imperial study suddenly became freezing point.

Chen Xinjia looked at the aloof Chongzhen, and his heart skipped a beat.

"Your Majesty, this matter..." Chen Xinjia looked at Chongzhen tremblingly, unable to express his distress.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I'm careless, it's true, it's the thief Zhao who is suffering!"

"Do you still have troubles? Do you know that since I knew that Zhao bandits sent 20 troops to attack Henan, I have had a good night's sleep? You still have troubles?" Chongzhen said, looking at the station Gao Qiqian who was beside him said, "Let everyone in the imperial study room go out!"

Gao Qiqian bowed slightly, and then walked out with all the eunuchs and maids in the imperial study.

After everyone walked out, Chongzhen looked at Gao Qiqian, "Apart from you, has the matter of peace been leaked?"

Although the summation failed, Chongzhen did not want outsiders to know about it for a long time.

"Report to Your Majesty, I kept my mouth shut and did not spread the matter." Chen Xinjia replied loudly.

Chongzhen nodded and said: "Since this is the case, you will rot in your stomach about this matter. If someone outside knows about this matter, I will never forgive you."

"I obey!" Gao Qiqian hastily kowtowed to Chongzhen, then stood up straight, his face suddenly serious.

"Your Majesty, when I was going to seek peace, I found something in Xuanzhen. This matter is related to the safety of the capital and the country. I have to say it." Chen Xinjia looked at Chongzhen solemnly.

"What's the matter?" Chongzhen asked.

"Your Majesty, the thing is like this. After I arrived in Xuanzhen, I saw Hong Chengchou, the former governor of the three sides!"

Although Chen Xinjia's voice was not loud, it sounded to Chongzhen's ears like thunder from the sky, and almost scared Chongzhen to death.

"Hong Chengchou? Didn't he die in battle? How could he be in Xuanzhen? What was he doing in Xuanzhen? Was he captured?" Chongzhen asked again and again.

Although Chongzhen had already guessed something, he forced himself to think of the good.

"Your Majesty, Hong Chengchou is ambitious and doesn't know the kindness of the king. He surrendered to Bandit Zhao!" Chen Xinjia said tremblingly.

"Crack!" Chongzhen slapped the table in front of him and stood up immediately.

"What?" Chongzhen pointed at Chen Xinjia, his body trembling, "You said that Hong Chengchou surrendered to Bandit Zhao? Didn't he die in battle? Didn't he die in battle? I even arranged a funeral for him before, how could he surrender? Zhao thief?"

Chongzhen's eyes widened and he questioned loudly.

Chapter 603 Your Majesty, the British Dukes are also planning to surrender

"Your Majesty, Hong Chengchou surrendered, he surrendered. He is now the governor of Xuanzhen to conquer the Japanese Kingdom, leading tens of thousands of troops to conquer the Japanese Kingdom. Now, half of the Japanese Kingdom has been attacked by Hong Chengchou.

Your Majesty, after Hong Chengchou failed to attack Xuanzhen, he took all his family members to Xuanzhen. "

Chen Xinjia knelt on the ground, shouting loudly, his face was full of resentment.

Chongzhen slumped down on the chair with a thump, his eyes were dull and his face was pale.

"How did this happen? How did this happen? How could Hong Chengchou surrender to Bandit Zhao? I have treated him well, how could he surrender to Bandit Zhao?"

Chongzhen seemed to have lost his soul, slumped on the chair, talking to himself in a panic.

"Impossible, how could Hong Chengchou surrender to Bandit Zhao? I have treated him well, how could he fail me? How could he dream of failing me? Chen Xinjia, tell me, this is not true, this is not true!"

Chongzhen stared at Chen Xinjia like a beast, and shouted loudly.

Chen Xinjia looked at Chongzhen in this state, and his heart was full of fear.

"Your Majesty, this is all true. Hong Chengchou has surrendered to Bandit Zhao, and he has surrendered to Bandit Zhao!" Chen Xinjia dared not deceive Chongzhen, even though Chongzhen kept roaring at him.

"Surrendered, Hong Chengchou actually surrendered!" Chongzhen's voice suddenly became quieter, he slumped on the chair, and smiled wryly, "Haha, hahaha, hahahaha!

Surrendered, Hong Chengchou surrendered, and the governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou, surrendered. "

After Chongzhen finished speaking, he suddenly became silent.

The air in the imperial study seemed to freeze, making Chen Xinjia unable to breathe.

After a long time, Chongzhen breathed a sigh of relief and said tremblingly: "Hong Hong Hong Chengchou did not surrender, he died in battle, he died on the way to attack Xuanzhen.

Chen Xinjia, I tell you that Hong Chengchou did not surrender.He died in battle, he died on the way to attack Xuanzhen.

If this news gets out, don't blame me for not saving face for you.If this news gets out, I will punish your nine clans. "

Although Hong Chengchou surrendered, for Chongzhen, Hong Chengchou could not surrender, but died in battle.

Once the news of Hong Chengchou's surrender comes, I am afraid that the minds of officials in the entire capital will change.

Who is Hong Chengchou?Hong Chengchou was a general under Chongzhen and a competent official in Chongzhen's hands.

For those officials in the capital, after Hong Chengchou surrendered to Zhao Wen, they could be reused, so if they surrendered to Zhao Wen, even if they were not as good as Hong Chengchou, they would not be so bad.

With the change of people's minds, no one in the entire capital would think about the imperial court anymore.

"Your Majesty, ministers and ministers accept the order." Chen Xinjia hastily buckled his head and received the order.

Chen Xinjia also wanted to understand why Chongzhen said this.

"Damn Hong Chengchou!" Chongzhen clenched his fists tightly, his teeth creaked, his temples protruded, and his eyes were full of coldness.

Although Chongzhen said that Hong Chengchou died in battle, this was also a lie.

Chongzhen kept panting, constantly adjusting his mentality.

After a long time, Chongzhen looked at Chen Xinjia again, "Is there anything else besides this?"

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing. I don't know if I should say it or not!" Chen Xinjia looked at Chongzhen.
