A burly man knelt outside the palace, and the Ming officials coming and going looked at him from time to time, with sympathy and disdain in his eyes, and even more anger of anger that was unconfrontational.

This place is very close to the inner palace where the Ming Emperor lives. Of course, it is not ordinary people who can kneel here openly. Otherwise, they would have been taken down by the palace guards long ago, but this man has been kneeling here for the next day.

He was not wearing an official uniform, and there was only a bag and two swords beside him. His knees had been deeply trapped in the snow, and his body was covered with thick snow, and his hair and eyebrows were covered with thin layers of ice chips. After kneeling for such a long time, even though his martial arts cultivation was quite good, his body was still shaking and shaking at this moment. From his first figure to his current support of his hands.

He is Jiang Shangyan.

A high-level general with an extremely special identity in the Ming Dynasty.

In the inner study, the chief assistant Quan Yun packed the memorials approved by Qin Feng, put them in the wide sleeve bag, stood up, sighed and said, "Your Majesty, Jiang Shangyan has been kneeling outside for two days. If you kneel down, you can't hold on."

When Qin Feng mentioned the Yan on the Jiang, he became a little angry.

"I deserve to kneel down and die. Daming is sorry for him. Now he is going to leave. He is looking for death when he goes back, looking for death!" Qin Feng put the teacup in his hand on the table with a loud bang and shouted angrily.

"But Your Majesty, no matter what, this person is loyal and righteous. Whether it is civil and military officials or soldiers, he still admires him a lot. Your Majesty, it is not sweet to make me want to turn it back. Although I also admire this person's talent very much, since he has decided to leave, why should Your Majesty keep him?" Quan Yun advised: "I know that Your Majesty admires this person very much, but it is understandable that he wants to go back at the moment."

Listening to Quan Yun's words, Qin Feng sighed, with a bleak expression on his face, and turned to the Mahou behind him and said, "Little Monkey, go and he brings him in, oh, by the way, let's get Shu Crazy. Jiang Shangyan has knelt down for the past two days, but I'm afraid that his health will be inappropriate."

"As for your order, your majesty!" Mahou replied.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Quan Yun said: "I fulfill Jiang Shangyan's loyalty and righteous heart. Although this person left, he set an example for my Ming soldiers. I think that Your Majesty should treat this person well."

"You have to say this!" Qin Feng was very unhappy. Since Cheng Wuben and Jiang Tao left, he took great care of Jiang Shangyan, so he only wanted to give food and take off his clothes. But in the end, he still couldn't let this man stay in the Ming Dynasty willingly. As soon as he saw that Chu was at risk of national destruction, he ran back from Yongping County, and even ignored the 5,000 soldiers in Baoqing Camp.

When Mahou walked outside the palace, he saw Jiang Shangyan who was almost buried in snow. He also sighed and walked to Jiang Shangyan, "General Jiang, Your Majesty wants to see you."

Yan Huo looked up on Jiang Shang, and a surprised expression appeared on his face: "Have Your Majesty finally willing to see me? Has Your Majesty allowed me to leave the Ming Dynasty and return to Chu State?"

After hearing this, Ma Hou said annoyedly: "Jiang Shangyan, you are really a wolf cub who is not familiar with you. What Your Majesty is treating you? You know in your heart that Chu has become like this now. If you go back, can you solve the danger of the eastern border troops, or can you save Kunling Pass, or can you save the six eastern counties of Chu? Humph, if the Chu people are a little inappropriate in dealing with it, not only the six eastern counties, but also most of the territory will be lost. You are just a small general, and you will be useless after you go back."

"Master Ma, I am from Chu." Jiang Shangyan's voice was hoarse: "Even if he knew that he would not change anything when he went back, as long as he was still standing on that land and fighting with his sword and doing his best, that would be enough. As for the result, Jiang had never thought about it."

"Get up, let Your Majesty wait for you all the time. You don't know. Now many ministers are waiting for Your Majesty to summon him!" Ma Hou said angrily.

Jiang Shangyan supported the ground with both hands and wanted to stand up, but she had been kneeling for a long time. She staggered and almost fell to the ground. The horse monkey beside her quickly reached out, supported him, bent down, rubbed Jiang Shangyan's knees, and the thick internal force slowly poured into Jiang Shangyan's body to help him push the palace and blood.

"Thank you, Commander Ma."

"Thank you! Although you don't treat me as a brother, I treat you as a brother. We are stirring the horse spoon in a pot and swinging the knife side by side on the battlefield." The horse monkey said with gritted teeth.

"Brother Mahou, I have always regarded you as a brother, and there are many others, such as wild dogs, big pillars, etc. They are also my brothers. Even if I die, I will not forget you." Jiang Shangyan whispered.

"Since you are brother... I'm too lazy to tell you." Ma Hou hooked her feet, hooked up Jiang Shangyan's bag and her swords, clamped them under her ribs, held Jiang Shangyan and walked inward.

When the two stepped into the inner study, Qin Feng was holding a note in his hand and holding a pen in his hand. He was writing something on it, but he didn't even raise his head. Instead, Shu Chang, who had been waiting there, saw the two of them coming in, dragging Jiang Shangyan over and pressing them on the chair. He took the other person's wrist without saying a word and began to take his pulse.

Jiang Shangyan stared at Qin Feng, her face full of shame. She wanted to struggle several times, but Shu Chang pressed her on the chair and couldn't move. After tilting a little, Shu Chang turned her wrist and a silver needle was stabbed on Jiang Shangyan's body. Then, Jiang Shangyan did not dare to move at all.

"Open your mouth!" There was an extra pill in his hand, and Shu Chang said in a cold and cold voice.

Jiang Shangyan couldn't help but open her mouth, Shuchang threw the pill into his mouth, stroked her hands down, and gave the pill with a buzzing sound. The pill was not small, and Jiang Shangyan rolled her eyes immediately.

Qin Feng's eyes did not leave the memorial, but in one hand he picked up the teacup on the table and threw it over. Shu Chang reached out to grab it, and regardless of whether the water was hot or not, he poured it into Jiang Shangyan's mouth.

His throat was swallowing constantly, but Jiang Shangyan's eyes looked at Qin Feng opposite him, with red eyes.

"Mahou, let the kitchen get a bowl of ginseng soup. This desperate guy is now extremely weak." Shu Chang waved his hand and said, "I need to make up for it well."

The horse and monkey left.

Jiang Shangyan's tears finally flowed down, and she looked at Qin Feng with sobs: "Your Majesty, I feel guilty."

Qin Feng finally put down the note in his hand and looked at Jiang Shangyan with no expression on his face: "I was very annoyed in my heart, but I thought that you were loyal and righteous, but this fire was a little less. Jiang Shangyan, the great defeat of Chu State was beyond help, the only difference is that it was so miserable. In my Ming Dynasty, you are a general in charge of the army and horses, but in Chu State, you are nothing. Even Cheng Wuben and Jiang Tao are not valued. Do you think you can change anything when you go back?"

"The last general did not ask for anything to change, but to contribute to the defense of his homeland." Jiang Shangyan whispered: "Otherwise, I will be uneasy."

"I'm really stupid and loyal!" Qin Feng shook his head and sighed. "There are still more than 1,500 Chu people in Baoqing Camp. How many are you willing to go back with you?"

"Report to Your Majesty, there are five hundred people who are willing to follow the general to go back to defend their homeland." Jiang Shangyan swallowed.

"All the others are willing to stay?" Qin Feng was slightly happy.

"Yes, these people have been in the Ming Dynasty for nearly five years. Most of them have already gotten married and married in the Ming Dynasty. Many have their own houses and land, and they are willing to stay." Jiang Shangyan said.

"You didn't make things difficult for them, are you?" Qin Feng said in a deep voice.

Jiang Shangyan shook her head: "How could it be? Everyone has their own ambitions, how could they force it? When they were in Chu, they had nothing, but in the Ming Dynasty, they had their own family business. How could Mo Jiang force them and Mo Jiang to leave?"

Qin Feng sighed, stood up, walked to the wall, pulled the wall cloth, pressed his hand on a huge map on the wall, and said, "On the way back from Baoqing, I have ordered Wu Ling to increase the pressure on Xian Bisong, and Li Xiaoya's cavalry has even begun to cross the border. In the northwest, I have ordered Zou Ming's Pili Camp to join forces with Wu Teng of Chu to attack the Lingchuan County of Qi, hoping that they can take down Lingchuan County, tear a hole in the northwest of Qi, and increase the pressure on Qi."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jiang Shangyan was surprised and happy, and knelt on the ground. With the base, Qin Feng's two orders would make Qi feel tremendous pressure, thus giving Chu a glimmer of hope.

"Don't impulsively go directly to the main battlefield. Your little manpower is like a moth to the fire. If you go, you will perish. After you go back, you should go to the capital first. The Empress has already gone by water. You can rush back all the way to meet the Empress in the capital. He will make arrangements."

"The Empress has also returned to Chu State?" Jiang Shangyan said in surprise.

"The State of Chu was finally the mother country of the Empress. Now that the State of Chu has something to do, you, the loyal minister of the Great Chu, are allowed to care for it, and you cannot let the Empress go back and do your best!" Qin Feng asked back.

Yan Shangyan nodded repeatedly.

"The Empress may be able to win a commander of the army in Shangjing City, so that the power will be slightly stronger. As for how to fight at that time and where to fight, the Empress will tell you." Qin Feng said.

"Yes, your Majesty."

"I will ask the horse monkey to prepare war horses for you, five hundred people, one person and two horses, bringing enough food, dry food, and weapons. You brought those five hundred people out, but you didn't carry weapons, right?" Qin Feng asked.

"Yes, we stayed in the barracks for all the weapons."

"Go to the Ministry of War to find a kitten, and you can take whatever weapons you like, so I will reward you." Qin Feng said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jiang Shangyan knelt on the ground and whimpered.

"Let's go, go, go quickly, so as not to make me feel upset!" Qin Feng waved his hand and said unhappy.

Jiang Shangyan knocked three times hard. When he got up, Mahou came in with a bowl of ginseng soup and handed the ginseng soup to Jiang Shangyan. Jiang Shangyan drank it all in one gulp and turned to Qin Feng: "Your Majesty, if Jiang Shangyan is not dead in this battle, it will help Chu State overcome difficulties. I will come back to apologize to Your Majesty!"

"You have to survive first!" Qin Feng said coldly.

"Farewell to Your Majesty." Jiang Shangyan bent down deeply, then turned around and walked out the door.

Before leaving the door, Shu Chang grabbed him and stuffed him a small box, "There are only three life-saving pills, this is a good thing. Remember to come back alive."
