Treacherous ministers have deep routines

After Chen En left, Lin Rang didn't talk nonsense, and immediately set off with Wei Man, leading his troops towards Chen Jitunliang's camp.

Chen Ying.

At this moment, Chen Ying has fallen into a state of anxiety and chaos. The grain storage camp did not welcome the expected grain team, but was attacked instead.

A large number of troops, with the banner of Wei character, swept in like flames, engulfing them in an instant.

In order to keep a low profile, the big battalion where the food is stored does not have too many soldiers guarding it. Although they are all the best of the best, they cannot withstand the crushing of numbers.

Especially in the unprepared period, when Chen Jun saw the sneak attacking soldiers and horses sweeping in, he panicked instantly and fled like a piece of loose sand.

Jiang Duting led soldiers and horses to raid from all sides, waved the long halberd in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Don't let any one go! Grab them all!"

"Yes! Lord!"

Jiang Duting's subordinates swept up in an instant, like a violent storm, and like a big net, they swooped around and wiped out those soldiers from the Chen camp who were still in the mist.

"Run!"

"It's Wei Man's army coming!"

"Protect the food! Retreat from this side!"

"That's...that's Jiang Duting, God of War!"

Everyone shouted in panic, someone recognized Jiang Duting, and Chen Ying's military spirit became even more confused.

The leader of the camp quickly ordered people to retreat to protect the food and grass and retreat from the path.

"Quick! Retreat, as much as you can!"

"Protecting food and grass is important!"

"Captain, if you want me to say, just set them on fire!"

"Yes!"

Someone suddenly made a sound, and the constant voices also urged, saying: "Lieutenant, if these grains are taken away by the Wei army, we will be finished!"

"It would be better if all of them were burned with one fire, and no one would get anything!"

"That's right, fight them! The big deal is to burn everything!"

The leader of the garrison was a little hesitant. If so much food was set on fire, even if they were lucky enough to escape back to Yanzhou, they would not be able to explain it to Chen Ji. In the end, they were sentenced to death and no one escaped.

"kill--!"

"Knock all of them!"

"Not a single one!"

The soldiers of the Wei army swept over, and the lieutenant's face turned extremely ugly. Then he gritted his teeth, the veins on his face burst, his eyes were congested and burst, and he said viciously, "Okay! Burning food—at worst, we will die with them!"

"Burning food!"

"Burning food!"

"Burning food!"

Chen Jun's soldiers began to shout, raising torches and preparing to throw them on the grain.

"Whoosh-"

Just when the captain raised the torch, and the moment the flame was about to hit the grain, a sound came through the air.

"what!!!"

The captain suddenly screamed, an arrow was shot in his wrist, and the torch fell to the ground in an instant, without burning the food at all.

The torch fell on the ground, and because there was no fuel to support it, it was burning slowly.

Everyone was taken aback and turned to look.

Jiang Duting and his group hadn't noticed that they were going to burn food, but in the dark night, a group of soldiers and horses rushed forward quickly. The leader was wearing black armor, bowed and set an arrow. Touched the captain's wrist.

"Wei Man!!"

"Wei Man is here!"

Someone yelled, the captain held his wrist that was shot by the arrow, his face was pale, and sweat rolled down his forehead.

In the blink of an eye, the team was approaching quickly, and it was indeed Wei Man who led the troops to mop up.

Lin Rang was at the back, waiting for everyone to rein in the horses, then Lin Rang slowly urged the shadowless horse forward, and said faintly: "Who knows that every grain of Chinese food is hard work, the farmer uncle works so hard to farm, is it not for him You use it to burn."

Lin Rang's words were very cold, and others could not understand what he said, but his face was expressionless and ruthless, which made people shiver uncontrollably.

Wei Man waved his hands and said, "Butt it up."

"Yes, my lord!"

Soldiers swarmed up, those Chen Ying soldiers wanted to burn food and grass, but failed, they were caught in an instant, and it was difficult to escape.

Jiang Duting saw the changes here, urged his horse to come over, saw Wei Man, and said in surprise, "Why is my lord here?"

Wei Man was proud of his successful mopping up, and said with a smile, "If Gu didn't come, I'm afraid you would lose all the food and grass. Just now, these soldiers wanted to burn the food and grass, but you didn't realize it."

"It's true..." Wei Man said again: "In terms of martial arts, maybe no one can be more outstanding than you, but in terms of resourcefulness, you are a little weaker than Du Ting. You should reflect on it."

Jiang Duting: "..."

Although Wei Man is already a general of hussars and once the leader of the alliance, but he is always not serious. If you give him some flair, he will immediately open a dyeing workshop.

Jiang Duting looked at Wei Man with a dark complexion, Wei Man smiled triumphantly, and said, "What? My lord is not right?"

Lin Rang glanced at Wei Man, then at Jiang Duting, and felt that the two of them were very bored, so he urged his horse to pass through to count the grain and grass.

Jiang Duting ignored Wei Man, turned his horse's head, and said, "Since the mopping up has been completed, the humble general will go back first."

"Wait a minute."

This time it was not Wei Man who "find fault", but Lin Rang.

Lin Rang stopped him, saying: "General Jiang, don't leave, someone will come to kick the hall in a while."

Wei Man and general Jiang Duting were so sure of what Lin Rang said, they couldn't help being surprised, but Wei Man relied on his image as the lord, so he didn't have a good time to speak.

Jiang Duting said, "Who is it?"

Lin Rang said, "Of course it's Mr. Chen."

Besides, when Chen En left Wei Man's camp in a hurry, his first thought was of course not to run back to Yanzhou.

Chen En also knew that if he returned home like this, he would only be ridiculed by the hostile people. If someone made trouble, Chen En would never recover.

Chen En was thinking about what to do. The best way, of course, was to lead troops to rescue the grain camp, if he could grab some.

So after Chen En left Wei Man's camp, he immediately rushed to the nearest camp day and night, preparing to dispatch troops and lead troops to kill them there, so as to relieve the urgent need.

Chen En managed to rush to the nearest camp and dispatched some soldiers and horses. He was so tired that he was sweating, but he didn't dare to delay for a moment, for fear of delaying the opportunity.

Chen En waved and said, "Go! Come with me!"

Chen En ordered two thousand soldiers and horses, and quickly rushed to the grain camp. He wanted to order more troops, but he couldn't do what he wanted, because there was no warrant, and the biggest effort was to dispatch 50 people. The local defenders belonged to Chen En's faction, and they had a good relationship with Chen En, so this was given to him. If it were someone else, they would not be able to mobilize them.

"Tap-tap-"

The 2000 men and horses wore the stars and wore the moon, and soon rushed to the side of the grain camp.

At this moment, Chen En suddenly raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute, wait a little longer."

The subordinates were at a loss and said, "Young Master, how long do we have to wait?"

Chen En said: "Don't act rashly, after dark, let's kill them by surprise."

When everyone heard it, they felt that it made sense, and said: "Young Master is more considerate."

So Chen En and his party stayed in the dark, waiting from afternoon to night, and from night to late night.

It was completely dark, so I sneaked out and sneaked towards the grain camp.

The big camp has been replaced with Wei Man's flag, and the big flag with the characters of Wei flying in the wind is very arrogant and reckless.

When Chen En saw this scene, his face immediately turned cold, and the veins on his forehead burst, and he said in a low voice, "As expected, it was Wei Man who attacked my camp! Well, well, I'm going to let him see how good I am today!"

Chen En squinted his eyes, and his eyes were full of ruthlessness. He ordered in a low voice, and said, "Go in, and nothing will be left behind!"

"Yes, son!"

"Yes!"

"kill--!!"

"kill--"

"Pieces of armor are not left!!"

Chen En's two thousand soldiers roared and rushed into the camp crazily, breaking open the gate with a "BOOM!!!" and rushing into the camp like a flood.

It was pitch black all around.

Silent.

The bonfire in the camp made a "crackling" sound, and the dry wood burst slightly.

Beyond that...

Nothing.

Chen En and his soldiers were dumbfounded for a moment. What's going on?

"Young master, why...why are you so quiet?"

"No one is watching the bonfire, it's almost extinguished."

"Not a single soldier, have they all left?"

Chen En was also very strange. He glanced around and said, "It's impossible to leave. You see, the military flag has not been collected. The military flag is the core and dignity of the army. Except for defeated troops and deserters, who would throw away the military flag?"

"Young master, did Wei Jun escape?"

Everyone guessed unbelievably, Chen En said: "Quickly, go around and see if there is any food left."

"Yes!"

"Report—the food is gone!"

"The tents are all empty!"

"My lord, here is a letter!"

Upon hearing this, Chen En said, "Bring it quickly!"

The soldier handed the letter to Chen En. The handwriting on it was crooked, a bit...

It looks like an urchin's handwriting.

"Mr. Chen's personal congratulations."

Signed by Luzhou governor.

It turned out to be a letter from Lin Rang.

Chen En went down, and Lin Rang wrote on it that there was enough food in the grain camp, and they took it all away. I am very grateful to Mr. Chen and his father for their respect. Such a big gift is well deserved.

When Chen En read this, his veins went into a rage, and he almost went mad, and said viciously, "So they guessed it a long time ago!"

Chen En continued to read, and Lin Rang said that these respects were too precious, so he had to give them back some small gifts, entertaining them with the utmost sincerity of Wei Jun...

Chen En narrowed his eyes, and immediately shouted: "Not good! Hurry up..."

retreat!

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly heard a sound of "哗啦——", countless soldiers poured out from all directions, and the quiet grain camp suddenly became full of people.

After countless banners with Wei characters, the Wei army lined up neatly, rushed out from all sides, quickly gathered the formation, and surrounded the entire camp in the middle.

"Da da da……"

The sound of horseshoes sounded, and Wei Man, Lin Rang, and Jiang Duting rode on horseback and walked over from a distance, looking very leisurely.

Lin Rang said lightly: "Mr. Chen, we meet again."

Wei Man was very unhappy when Lin Rang greeted Chen En, but soon he heard Lin Rang continue to say...

"Isn't Mr. Chen anxious to go home and fulfill his filial piety? Why did he come here? Could it be..."

Lin Rang laughed, and it was harmless. His face was full of spring breeze, his whole body was warm and gentle, and he said in a soft voice, "Could it be that there is your cheap dad here?"

Wei Man: "..."

Jiang Duting: "..."

Chen En's face was "unpredictable", and the veins on his forehead were throbbing wildly.

Wei Man waved his hand and said, "Take it."

Chen En wanted to lead his troops to flee, but the situation at this time was to catch a turtle in a urn. They were in the camp, with nothing but a little bonfire, and they were surrounded by people. They lost a lot in terms of numbers and momentum. .

Chen En's face was ashamed, and the soldiers of the Wei army rushed in quickly and took them down on the spot without giving them a chance to resist.

Chen En was pinned to the ground in a very embarrassing situation, his face was firmly pressed to the ground, and he couldn't get away from struggling.

Lin Rang rode on the horse and walked leisurely into the camp.

Chen En yelled: "If you want to kill or kill, it's up to you!"

Wei Man sneered and said, "It's all right to listen to you? Do you have a lot of backbone? But you have to know that if you put a bone on a loser, it sounds like a tough bone, but it doesn't sound good...it's thick. face."

"you……"

Chen Enqi's eyes were red and bloodshot, and he stared fiercely at Wei Man, but because his cheek was pressed against the ground, it was not easy to stare.

"You have the ability to kill me with a sword!"

Lin Rang said lightly: "Mr. Chen, don't worry, we won't kill you. On the contrary, we will send you back with all your shadows."

"What... what?"

Chen En was astonished, and looked at Lin Rang screamingly, his heart turned a thousand times, and suddenly a wonderful possibility appeared in his heart.

Is it...

Lin Rang couldn't bear to kill himself, so...

Just when Chen En was thinking about something, Wei Man saw that his expression was "different", so he raised his foot, kicked Chen En hard, and said, "Don't lose your mind."

Lin Rang continued: "Chen Ji is suspicious, I think you, as a son, have the best understanding."

Hearing this, Chen En felt a "thud" in his heart. He felt that he had thought too much just now, and suddenly felt a sign of chills all over his body.

Lin Rang said again: "Not only will we not kill you, but we will also send a carriage to send you back in a dignified manner. You know... Mr. Chen Zhang sent a big gift, lost the grain camp, and killed two thousand soldiers and horses. The whole army was wiped out, but you were sent back eight times in sedan chairs, with gongs and drums blowing, my lord. You don't need your brother to say a word, will Chen Ji forgive you?"

"You...you..."

"You guys are so cruel!"

Chen En was trembling, and he didn't dare to look at Lin Rang again.

Lin Rang smiled lightly, and said, "Young Master Chen is joking, fighting on the battlefield, is it possible to become a saint if you are not cruel?"

Wei Man said: "According to the governor's order, don't you hurry up and prepare the best chariot for Mr. Chen?"

"Yes!"

Wei Man was about to send Chen En "on the road", and whispered to Lin Rang, "You really are here."

Lin Rang said coldly: "Now that Chen Ji has no soldiers and no food, he has lost the battle and has nothing left. Duke Wei is ready to watch the show."

Chen En was escorted back to Yanzhou. Everyone in Yanzhou heard that Chen En was found, but Wei Man didn't kill him. Not only did he not kill him, but he also ate and drank. Yanzhou.

When Chen Ji saw Chen En, he was furious.

"Boom-!!!"

"waste!!"

"A mediocre dog!"

"What's the use of keeping you alone?! You have a dog that barks, you mediocre dog. You have lost so much food and grass. If you hand over these food and grass to others, who told you to privately transfer two thousand soldiers and horses?!"

"Snapped--"

Chen Ji slapped him across the face, and Chen En knelt on the ground, slapped on the ground in shock.

Chen En covered his face and didn't dare to say anything.

Chen Ji pointed at Chen En, and said with trembling hands and feet: "Two thousand soldiers! Wei Man swallowed them all up! Are you thinking that he doesn't have enough food, so send some more people over?!"

"Son...son..." Chen En hurriedly said, "Son, I know I was wrong."

"Wrong!?"

Chen Ji said in a cold voice: "Gu's country has been ruined by you, come here!! I will be dragged out and beheaded by Gu!"

Beheaded? !

Chen En was so frightened that he quickly lay down on the ground and begged for mercy, saying, "Father, please forgive me! Please forgive me!"

Chen En lost power, his faction saw it, if Chen En was really beheaded, how could they be better?

The counselor who proposed the idea before quickly knelt down, kowtowed and said, "My lord! Please spare the eldest son this time! Wei Man sent the eldest son back just because he wanted to see the lord and the eldest son fight each other. Poison does not eat children, if the lord really ordered to kill the eldest son, how should the people of Yanzhou treat the lord? The lord's painstaking efforts to win the hearts of the people may be in vain!"

What the counselor said was indeed reasonable. Chen Jifang was angry, but now that he thought about it carefully, it was also true. He said sharply, "Get out! Get out! I don't want to see you again!"

Chen En saved his life, and ran away in a hurry.

As soon as Chen En left, Chen Ji started throwing things again, and said viciously: "Wei Man!! Wei Man, I am at odds with you!"

Having said that, but now Chen Ji has lost food and grass, lost troops, and has no military spirit. If he is consumed like this, he will not be able to fight at all.

Now, no one in the camp has come up with a quick solution, because they used to have enough food and grass, a strong army, and the aspirations of the people, and the right time, place, and people are all in place, but now they have nothing, so how can they fight?

Chen Ji was so annoyed that the counselor huddled in a corner, thinking that if he didn't make some suggestions, he might be implicated by Mr. Chen.

So the counselor hurried forward and said, "My lord, in fact... we still have a way to redeem."

"Say!"

The counselor said respectfully: "My lord, have you forgotten? We are in the capital, and there is another faction... General Wei."

General Wei, Tong Cheng.

As I said before, Tong Cheng is a general of the guard, and he is superior to Wei Zixiu, the lieutenant of Xuanyang trusted by the little emperor.

What's more, Tong Cheng is a senior official, and the Queen Mother Tong, who was kind to the little emperor in the past, is Tong Cheng's aunt.

Tong Cheng has a unique influence of foreign relatives, and now in the palace, Tong Cheng's status is extraordinary.

When Pangtu was still in Yanzhou, he specially contacted Tong Cheng for them. Tong Cheng was already a member of Chen Ji's camp.

Now that Pangtu is gone and went to Weiying, Chen Ji did not contact Tong Cheng for a long time.

The counselor said: "General Wei's status in the capital should not be underestimated. If we can contact General Wei and ask him to say a few words in front of the owner..."

"Now Wei Man is the master of great achievements," the counselor said again: "He defeated Chen Zhonglu, and now he is coming to break us up. Once he defeats us, he will be the master of the world. Who else is his opponent in this world? Little Emperor You should also understand this point, as long as General Wei is willing to enter the palace to face the saint, speak for us, and criticize Wei Man, the master will punish Wei Man severely, no need for the master to work hard, right?"

Chen Ji squinted his eyes. It was true. If Wei Man was dominant, Chen Ji would be the first one to suffer. But everyone knows the truth. Once Chen Ji is destroyed, Wei Man's power will be invincible. The status of the emperor will inevitably be shaken.

Chen Ji pondered for a while, then said: "Okay, I will do as you said."

Beijing.

Tong Cheng smiled and said, "Daughter, where are you going?"

The daughter of the Tong family held an exquisite red lacquer food box in her hand, with a smile on her face, and a little embarrassed, she said in a low voice and shyly: "Go to the palace, my daughter has made some food, and I plan to send it to the master to have a taste. .”

"Good good."

Tong Cheng said: "Daughter, you want to be like this. You often go to the palace, you know? You are the eldest lady of my Tong family. This palace is full of people from our Tong family. Naturally, the harem is also from our Tong family." , in the future, if you become the queen, that will be the glory of our Tong family!"

Miss Tong was very embarrassed and said, "Father, you are making fun of my daughter!"

Tong Cheng said again: "You go in quickly, first give the master some delicious food, after a while my father will also enter the palace, and I have to talk about some important things with the master, it's good if you pave the way."

The little emperor was sitting in the palace, and he had already received the reward from the local government. The allied forces were disbanded, but Wei Man still beat Chen Ji with his helmet and armor.

Just after the urgent report was delivered, Wei Man seized another batch of grass from Chen Ji, as well as [-] soldiers and horses. If this continues, Chen Ji might have to take off his clothes.

The little emperor was reading the documents when he suddenly heard a "squeak" and someone walked into the inner hall without any notification.

"who is it?"

The little emperor quickly closed the document, put it aside, and pressed it under the other documents.

Looking up, it turned out to be Tong Cheng's daughter.

Ms. Tong walked in and said with a smile, "Master, it's me."

The little emperor said lightly: "Why don't you pass it on?"

Ms. Tong smiled and said, "Master... We will soon become a family. Do we need to pass it on? When I was young, I often played with the owner, and I didn't see any need for communication..."

The little emperor is cold and indifferent, even though he is still young and his qualifications are still inexperienced, but these years of sitting in the palace have allowed him to develop an unflappable temperament.

"In the past, I was Tong Hou, but now I am the emperor, do you think... can it be the same?"

The little emperor's voice was not high, but it was so loud that Miss Tong was startled, and she didn't dare to familiarize herself with it.

He said timidly: "Your Majesty, I personally made this food for the Emperor, please have a taste of it."

The little emperor did not continue, glanced at it, and said indifferently: "There are rules in the palace for eating and entering the palace. Has your food passed the poison test?"

"Drug test!?"

Ms. Tong was taken aback and said, "I didn't do poison, how dare I do it? That's why I didn't..."

The little emperor had already interrupted her, saying: "Since I haven't passed the drug test, I don't know how to eat it, just take it out."

Miss Tong: "..."

Miss Tong touched the ashes several times in a row, bit her lip, and said simply: "The emperor must be tired after taking care of everything, I will help the emperor squeeze his shoulders!"

"No need."

Although the little emperor said so, Miss Tong still walked forward and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, why are you so unfamiliar, we will soon become a family."

She said that she must pinch the little emperor's shoulders, but the little emperor quickly stopped him, "Crack!!!" and directly knocked the inkstone down on the ground.

The inkstone was so thick that it broke into pieces.

Wei Zixiu came to the palace today as an errand, and when he walked near the bedroom, he was already very surprised to see no servants guarding him. Suddenly, he heard a loud "crack!!!" from the palace.

Immediately, his heart tightened, he took a big step, with a sword in his hand, rushed into the inner hall, and said, "Your Majesty!?"

He rushed in with big strides, and saw the little emperor chatting with Miss Tong, their appearance was very ambiguous.

Miss Tong's coat was a little disheveled, Wei Zixiu was startled, turned his back quickly, and said, "I will take my leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, the little emperor immediately said loudly: "Wei Zixiu stop! I have something important to discuss with you."

As he spoke, he said to Ms. Tong in a cold voice: "Enough is enough. This is the palace, my bedroom, not the courtyard of the Tong family. Ms. Tong needs to be careful."

Miss Tong was reprimanded unceremoniously by the emperor, she lowered her head and dared not speak.

The little emperor said, "Go out."

Ms. Tong just felt wronged, but she had no choice but to run away crying.

Seeing her leave, the little emperor heaved a sigh of relief, and looked down at his robe. It was all over now, ink was splashed on the robe, and he was in a terrible state.

The little emperor tied his hands, looked down at himself, and said, "Zixiu, come and change my clothes."

Wei Zixiu lowered his eyes and said, "Yes, Lord."

The two entered the inner hall, Wei Zixiu took out a set of clean clothes, helped the little emperor untie the jade belt respectfully, took off his outer robe, and put on a clean outer robe.

The little emperor said: "You must have something urgent to come here?"

Wei Zixiu said: "The humble general is working in the palace today, and besides..."

As he spoke, he paused, and the little emperor said, "But it doesn't matter."

Wei Zixiu said: "In addition, Chen Ji in Yanzhou contacted General Wei in private and gave General Wei a lot of benefits. I am afraid that General Wei will come to speak good words for Chen Ji soon."

As Wei Zixiu spoke, he gently brushed the little emperor's long hair out of his outer robe, picked up the small comb on the desk, and combed it carefully.

Right at this moment...

"My lord, General Wei asks to see you."

Wei Zixiu just said that General Wei would come, and now General Wei really came.

Hearing this, the little emperor glanced at Wei Zixiu, and then said loudly, "I was injured by Miss Tong's inkstone just now, and I'm seeing the imperial doctor, but no one is there."

Hearing this, Wei Zixiu hurriedly checked the little emperor, and said, "Where did the lord get hurt? I'm going to find the imperial doctor right now..."

As he spoke, he walked out, and was grabbed by the little emperor, who smiled and said, "You're lying."

Wei Zixiu: "..."

The little emperor stretched out his sleeves and sat down, and said very leisurely: "I scolded his daughter away just now, that old bastard will definitely make me unhappy, so why not find an excuse not to see him."

Wei Zixiu: "..."

The news that Chen Ji had united with Wei General Tong Cheng was quickly spread to Wei Man.

Mr. Duan Su came to see Wei Man with the urgent report from the capital, handed it over, and said, "This is the urgent report from the middle of Beijing from the young master."

It was sent by Wei Zixiu.

He was in Beijing, with many eyes and ears, and he often sent detailed reports.

Wei Man opened the emergency report and saw that Chen Ji had paid a lot of money to buy General Wei Tong Cheng. The two united the front and planned to criticize Wei Man together.

Tong Cheng is also contacting other relatives to brainwash the little emperor.

Wei Man just looked at it, sneered, and said: "What a Tong Cheng, Queen Mother Tong has passed away for an unknown period of time, and Tong Gao has also been destroyed. Their Tong family is really in danger."

Lin Rang remained calm and said, "What's the owner's reaction?"

Mr. Duan Su replied: "My lord...there is no response yet."

Lin Rang said: "No reaction is the best reaction."

He said, looked at Wei Man, and said, "Duke Wei can pay tribute to the capital to express his loyalty."

Wei Man said: "This matter is best left to Mr. Duan Su."

Mr. Duan Su cupped his hands and said, "Yes, this humble minister takes orders."

Tong Cheng and Chen Ji instigated chaos, entered the palace every three days, or sent people into the palace to lobby the little emperor.

The little emperor quickly issued an order and sent it to Yanzhou.

When Chen Ji heard that the little emperor's will had come, he immediately became overjoyed. Tong Cheng's method must have worked, and the little emperor finally spoke.

The counselor greeted the envoy who issued the order at the gate of the camp, and respectfully ushered in the shogunate tent along the way.

The counselor smiled and said, "My lord, the decree of the lord has arrived!"

Chen Ji hurriedly bowed in a respectful manner, bowed deeply, and said, "Welcome the envoy."

The envoy held the imperial edict in his hand and said, "Yanzhou Shepherd doesn't need to be too polite, just accept the edict."

Chen Ji hurriedly knelt down to accept the order, and heard the messenger say: "Chen Ji, the shepherd of Yanzhou, supports his troops and is self-respecting, eating away at the land, committing repeated crimes..."

It was a bit strange at the beginning, Chen Jideng panicked, didn't he already bribed Tong Cheng?

Why did the envoy sent by the emperor look like an envoy of reprimand?

Sure enough, the little emperor's edict was not aimed at Chen Ji, but a proper reprimand.

It is clearly written on the imperial edict that Chen Jiyong is self-respecting, arrogant, blinding the hearts of the people, and the evidence of encroaching on the country is solid, as well as the treason letter Chen Jifa sent to Chen Zhonglu as evidence, his heart can be punished.

Chen Jiyue's face became paler when he heard it, his teeth hit each other up and down, and he kept trembling.

The envoy said again: "In memory of the elders of the three dynasties of the Chen family, Chen Ji is now ordered to surrender his military power immediately and return to Beijing to apologize."

When Chen Ji heard this, his eyes shrank, as if his whole soul had floated out, he was in a daze.

Instead of helping him, the little emperor reprimanded him and asked him to surrender all his military power and return to Beijing to apologize.

Isn't Beijing just waiting to die this time?

The envoy didn't dare to delay after reading the imperial decree, maybe he was afraid that if he was delayed, he would die, so he immediately trotted away and left the camp.

"what!!!"

Chen Ji roared angrily, "Crack!!!" and smashed the edict board directly on the ground, and it was instantly torn apart.

The counselor didn't expect it to turn out like this, his whole body was like sifting chaff, his face was extremely ugly, his lips were trembling, and even a little purple.

The plan to contact Tong Cheng failed, and the little emperor made it clear that if he didn't turn over his military power and return to Beijing to apologize, it would be disrespecting the order.

Not only that, the little emperor still has Chen Jifa's "rebellion" letter to Chen Zhonglu in his hand, which is conclusive evidence that cannot be disputed by anyone.

Now that it has reached this point, Chen Ji can be said to be desperate. There are wolves before and tigers behind.

Not to mention Wei Man, maybe even Wu De who was stationed in Chuzhou could send troops to beat Chen Ji to pieces. The scene should not be underestimated.

"This is just great!"

Chen Ji roared angrily, with a hoarse voice like a thunderbolt, and said, "That old dog Tong Cheng! After spending so much money on Gu, he couldn't even get an idea done! How did you promise Gu at that time?!"

The counselor repeatedly admitted his mistakes, saying: "My lord, please calm down, my lord, please calm down, for the current plan... I have a good plan... I have a good plan."

"Good strategy?"

Chen Ji said coldly: "What kind of bullshit good strategy, you still have the face to talk to Gu about a good strategy?! Look at your strategy, it ruined Gu's great country!"

Although Chen Ji scolded, he didn't have a plan, so he could only say after scolding: "What is the plan?!"

The counselor contemplated for a while, a little lacking in confidence, but bit the bullet and said, "Temporarily...surrender."

"what?!"

No wonder the counselor looked like he lacked confidence. It turned out that he also knew that when he said this, Chen Ji would definitely be furious.

Sure enough, Chen Ji was furious, rushed over to grab the counselor, and said viciously: "You let Gu surrender?! Are you afraid that it is Wei Man's fault?! I, the elders of the three dynasties of the Chen family, who is not as good as Wei Man?! You Let Gu surrender?!"

The counselor repeatedly begged for mercy and said: "My lord, listen to me, my lord. I think that the current situation is not good for us. If the lord is screwed with the court, this is the situation Wei Man wants to see the most. My lord. Why make him happy? How about..."

The counselor said: "It's better... let's pretend to surrender first to appease the owner. Once we surrender, the owner will think that Wei Man has too many soldiers and horses in his hands, and his merits will shock him. In this way, the owner must concentrate on targeting Wei Man. We Then there is a chance to breathe, isn't it?"

Chen Ji was furious with blue veins on his forehead, but he felt that what the counselor said made sense.

The crux of the matter is…

Now Chen Ji has no other choice. If he does not surrender, his entire army may be wiped out.

They can only temporarily surrender and seek a counterattack.

Wei Man was squatting on the empty field of the camp, feeding Xiaoman, he was holding small dried meat in his hand, and Xiaoman was eating each bite, enjoying himself.

Wei Man rubbed Xiaoman's big head, and said, "You're a good dog, you just smirk all day long except for eating."

Xiaoman roared "Wow!!", and made a gesture to bite Wei Man's hand, as if to say, I'm not a dog, I'm a wolf!

When Xiaoman lost his temper, Lin Rang happened to pass by with two volumes of medical codes in his arms, and when he saw Xiaoman about to bite someone, he immediately said, "Xiaoman, don't bite."

Xiaoman hasn't bitten anyone yet, and he's just putting on a show. Whoever made Wei Man provoke him all the time, never knew that his master would find out.

Wei Man is also good at pretending, very hypocritical, immediately jumped up, covered his hands, ouch, yelled in pain, and said: "Xiaoman bit someone, it hurt Gu, come and see Gu. "

Xiaoman: "..."

With ice blue "dog eyes", Xiaoman quietly watched Wei Man perform...

Wei Manzhuang's hoarse voice was exhausted, and he must let Lin Rang Poor himself.

Unexpectedly, someone came to make trouble at this time, Xia Yuanyun was sweating, and strode over, shouting: "My lord! My lord!! It's a big deal! A big deal!"

Seeing Xia Yuanyun, Wei Man sighed helplessly, and said, "What's wrong?"

Every time Xia Yuanyun appeared, it would be accompanied by something bad, Wei Man thought it would be the same this time.

Who knew that Xia Yuanyun said with a smirk, "It's not bad, but a great thing!"

Wei Man said "Oh?" and said, "What a great thing?"

Xia Yuanyun said: "My lord, go to the shogunate's camp first, everyone is waiting."

Xia Yuanyun also sold Guanzi, Wei Man was a little surprised, so he went to the shogunate tent with Lin Rang.

As soon as he entered, he saw a figure rushing towards him. When he saw Lin Rang, he wanted to hug him.

Who else could it be if it wasn't Wu Han Taishou Yang Yue?

Yang Yue shouted: "Inspector, we have won! We have won!"

Wei Man's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick. He didn't give Yang Yue a chance to take advantage, and immediately raised his hand to stop Yang Yue.

Yu Ziyuan, the governor of Daizhou behind him, also had sharp eyesight and quick hands, he grabbed Yang Yue and pulled him back.

Wei Man said, "Win over what?"

Jiang Duting said with a smile: "My lord doesn't know yet, Chen Ji...surrendered."

Wei Man was really taken aback, and said, "What?! Did I hear correctly? Chen Ji surrendered?"

Pangtu cupped his hands and said, "That's true. The news from Yanzhou is indeed reliable. Chen Ji has already surrendered and is now presenting to the court."

Yuan Hao said: "A few days ago, the imperial court ordered Chen Ji to be reprimanded, demanding that Chen Ji surrender all his military power and return to Beijing to apologize. Now Chen Ji has agreed and is ready to return to Beijing."

Wei Man frowned, and said with a sneer, "Chen Ji, this old boy...can he really give up his military power? I'm afraid it's a way to slow down the army."

Yang Yue waved his hand and said, "Hey! What do you care about him? It doesn't matter whether it's a plan to slow down the army or really shrink back, anyway, we won! First we defeated Chen Zhonglu, and now we defeated Chen Ji. The three dynasties of the Chen family Elder Yuan, the more you live, the more you come back, so happy!"

Everyone rejoiced at the news of Chen Ji's surrender.
