"General Chen Shen was the commander of the Dingliao Central Guard at that time. During the Battle of Sarhu, he was the general of Du Zongbing's left sentry army, and controlled the Dingliao Central Guard and Right Guard. The last general was Qianhu, the Dingliao Right Guard. When the war began

, the Tatar cavalry cut off the connection between the two units and the central army, the right guard was defeated, the commander was killed, and the general and his men desperately covered the evacuation.

The Chinese army was surrounded, and General Du ordered the left sentry to break out. General Chen Shen was already injured at the time, but he still led his infantry to go for reinforcements. Our Qianhu Station followed closely behind, but the situation was tense. General Du

Later, General Chen Shen was killed in the battle. General Chen Shen was responsible for cutting off the rear and died in the battle. General Chen Shen felt ashamed. At that time, he led his men to follow General Chen Shen. However, he was forced to retreat by the defeated soldiers in front. When it came time to judge the crime, the merits and demerits were balanced, and he was demoted.

I am a member of the Hundred Households, and I have come to Baitapu to serve as a guard for the Hundred Households."

Yuan Shizhong looked at Chen Cao sitting opposite him, and bowed his hands towards Chen Cao respectfully: "Mr. Chen Qi has a father like this, and he is also loyal and brave. Yuan is here to apologize to Mr. Chen Qi."

Chen Cao shook his head. He had been in a coma for two days. The Jin soldiers retreated. Li Rubai immediately sent the informant to the Liaodong Dusi's headquarters to report the merits to Xiong Tingbi. After finishing, he hurriedly inquired about the situation.

The details of how he took advantage of his father Chen Fei.

Li Rubai on the side nodded with satisfaction: "General Manager Chen Banner has won the victory this time. The Salhu Juniper Division was defeated by Zhenglan Banner where Mulhaqi was located, and now General Manager Chen Banner has personally killed Mul."

Haqi, you can be considered avenged, so I am happy and congratulated."

"General Li, Mr. Chen is willing to give up this credit." Chen Cao looked at Li Rubai without changing his expression and said: "In this case, I believe Mr. Li can offset his merits and demerits. When the new emperor ascends the throne, there may be many more."

Reward, for General Li, going to Beijing to present prisoners now is a good thing, isn't it? "

Li Rubai's face turned red to the roots of his ears. As the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, this victory was fought in Shenyang. Although it was basically Chen Cao's credit, in the final analysis of merit and rewards, he, as the main general, was

The first person to receive the reward is the second person to win the battle.

And Chen Cao is not stupid. He is a person with no background. It is very dangerous in this early age of the Apocalypse to suddenly receive this military honor. There is basically no benefit. The key is that he also offended his immediate boss Liu Lei and killed him.

His confidant Liu Zuo, so Chen Cao's first thing now is to protect himself with Mingzhe when discussing merit.

He was going to give Liu Lei bad medicine.

"General Li, please don't thank me yet. I will give you most of the credit. I only have one request."

"What request?" Li Rubai's words were trembling.

"Liu Lei, a member of the Jin Yiwei family, was timid in the face of battle and intended to escape."

Stopped.

Li Rubai is an old official in the officialdom. Chen Cao's words could not be more obvious, but he couldn't figure out why Chen Cao wanted to punish this small Jin Yiwei Baihu because of his great achievements: "Well, I will

Got it, leave everything to me, I'll go and make arrangements right away, Mr. Chen Qi should recover quickly, we will set off back to the capital soon to offer prisoners."

Only Li Shaokuan and Yuan Shizhong were left in the hall. Yuan Shizhong was the first to speak: "General Chen Qi, I admire General Chen very much. If General Chen Qi rises high in the future and is useful in a certain place, I just want to say goodbye."

Chen Cao nodded, held up his hands to indicate, then looked at Li Shaokuan, feeling a little embarrassed, so he held up his hands and said, "Chen admires Brother Li very much. In the last battle, Brother Li used a spear superbly, and Chen admires him."

"Hey..." Li Shaokuan sneered: "It's just a small skill. My father used a Liaohe gun to sweep away Japanese pirates and Mongolia. As my son, I only learned less than 30%."

"May I ask your name?"

"My father, Li Rumei."

Although Chen Cao had read a lot of Ming Dynasty novels and had some impressions, he really didn't know what Li Rumei's great achievements were, so he made a surprised expression and said: "It turns out that Brother Li is the son of General Li. I am very lucky."

Li Shaokuan is also more useful. After all, Li Rumei died young and his reputation is not as high as that of his uncle and second uncle: "Mr. Chen Qi is too modest. I didn't expect that Mr. Chen Qi was so good at the battle formation. That day, Xiao Kuan

My sister even used a sword to scare Mr. Chen Qi. Now that I think about it, it’s really a joke.”

"Who is the joke, Fifth Brother?" Li Waner walked into the lobby dressed in a smart outfit, glanced at Li Shaokuan, then looked at Chen Cao, and said: "Hey, you scoundrel, who did you learn kung fu from?"

"Little sister, how can you talk to Mr. Chen Qi like this?" Li Shaokuan scolded, and then handed over his hand: "My cousin is the youngest and has a fierce temper. I hope Mr. Chen Qi will respect her."

Chen Cao waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. Although Miss Li is young, she looks like Hua Mulan when she kills enemies with a sword on the battlefield. The Li family is very lucky to have this daughter."

Li Shaokuan felt that there was something in Chen Cao's words, but he couldn't hear where it was, so he smiled and said: "I have to do it in advance, Mr. Chen Qi can do it himself."

"please..."

As soon as Li Shaokuan left, Li Waner's attitude changed, and she even changed her address to Chen Cao: "Chen Cao, do you still remember what you said to me that night?"

"That night?" Chen Cao looked at Li Waner with wide eyes, a look of confusion on his face.

When Li Waner saw this, she thought Chen Cao was going to regret it, so she became furious and cursed: "You're such a lewd thief, it seems you must have done it intentionally that night. If I don't kill you today, it won't be enough to vent the hatred in my heart."

Bang...

Li Wan'er pulled out the long sword she carried with her and was about to stab her. Chen Cao was shocked, stood up and backed away suddenly, and then said urgently: "Miss Li, don't be anxious, I haven't handed over my mission yet, I will accompany Mr. Li later."

After arriving in the capital, I will come to Liaodong and let Miss Li do whatever she wants."

Li Waner didn't want to kill Chen Cao. That night, she only remembered Chen Cao's last sentence, "proposing marriage after revenge." At first, Li Waner was noncommittal, but when she saw Chen Cao's rushing to the battlefield in Baitapu, she was dissatisfied with Chen Cao's words.

Cao, who was born in Jinyiwei, has changed a lot. In addition, his father died in the battle of Salhu, and he has a growing affection for Chen Cao. He knew that Chen Cao would soon leave with his father, so he came to test Chen Cao that night.

if.

When Li Waner heard this, her mood became even more tense. She thought that Chen Cao was only deceiving her to save his life, so she became even more angry: "Watch the sword, thief."

That was true. Chen Cao didn't have time to explain. He kicked up the stool in front of him and prepared to repeat his old trick. However, Li Waner suffered a loss that night and now she is like the elf. She doesn't block the stool head on, but

Turning sideways, the stool flew out of the way, and she rushed forward, preparing to strike Chen Cao in the head.

"Chen will also propose marriage to Mr. Li after arriving in Beijing."

When Li Waner heard this, she sheathed her long sword, but she couldn't hold back her inertia and rushed forward. Seeing this, Chen Cao quickly stepped forward and caught Li Waner fiercely. Little did he know that Chen Cao didn't have much preparation. When he was hit by Li Waner, he himself

He also fell down, but Li Waner was held up in the air by his own hands, only half a meter away from his chest.

but...

Chen Cao felt that what he was holding in his hands were two lumps of soft meat, and there were quite a few.

Li Waner's face turned red and she cursed angrily: "You thief, you still won't let me go."

When Chen Cao opened his eyes carefully, it turned out that what he was holding was the peak on Li Waner's chest. From a distance, Chen Cao discovered that Li Waner, who was seventeen or eighteen years old, was well developed, with a beautiful face, smooth and white skin, and her breath was blue.

Silk, the key point is that this mountain peak is too big.

After realizing his actions and Li Waner's expression, Chen Cao let go in panic. Unexpectedly, with this release, Li Waner fell in. The two were close together, and Li Waner's chest was squeezed against Chen Cao. Not to mention, the little

But his mouth was also pressed against Chen Cao's.

"I'm going to die..." Li Waner stood up and ran out with a red face.

Chen Cao licked his lips carefully and thought, 'This Li Waner also has a fruity flavor'...

...

Chen Cao returned to Beijing, and he was responsible for accompanying Li Rubai and his family to Beijing. Of course, Li Waner was also there, and Li Shaokuan, as a participant in the beheading of Mulhaqi, was also going to Beijing together.

Liu Lei was more unlucky. If he hadn't been determined to punish Chen Cao from the beginning, Chen Cao would not have punished him. However, Chen Cao was not a good man or woman. What he respected most was "If others respect me, I will give him back."

What's more important is that his sister Zhang Liu is behind him, so he has to deal with Liu Lei even more.

Liu Lei was directly accused of deserting by the sympathetic Li Rubai. This crime was very serious in the frontier army, but in an institution like Jinyiwei, it depends on whether the people in power are willing or not, so Li Rubai added a "intent to cholera the morale of the army" after this.

It's very serious. Liu Lei will shed his skin this time even if he doesn't die, so while Chen Cao and the others are riding horses and riding in carriages, he, Liu Lei, is also there, serving in prison cars.

Xiong Tingbi, the governor of Liaodong, sent people to accompany him, and his Tang newspaper was also sent to the capital for delivery. This group of seven or eight hundred people took more than twenty days to arrive at Shanhaiguan.

After Chen Cao and his party arrived at Shanhaiguan, the eunuchs from the capital also arrived.

"The emperor, who is destined to be transported by heaven, said: "Li Rubai, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong... ordered Li Rubai to go to the capital as soon as possible to present the prisoners to the emperor. I admire this."

"Your Majesty Li Rubai obeys the decree, long live my emperor..."

The eunuch stared at Chen Cao who was kneeling behind Li Rubai and said, "Are you Chen Cao, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard?"

Chen Cao raised his head and nodded with a serious face: "This is the humble position of Chen Cao."

The eunuch looked at it carefully, then nodded and said: "Well, the emperor said that Chen Cao, the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, played an important role in this battle. He made the Jinyiwei look good, and he was named the Qianhu Official of Jinyiwei Nanzhen Fusi."

As he spoke, he waved his hand to the young eunuch behind him: "This is Chen Qianhu's confession. You can take him and report to the Jinyiwei Commander Si Yamen first."

Chen Cao took his petition from the young eunuch, then bowed respectfully and said: "It's a humble position, no, I will thank Your Majesty for your kindness, General Chen Cao."

"Well..." The eunuch nodded with satisfaction: "Your Majesty asked our family to ask Chen Qianhu a few words,"

Chen Cao quickly bowed his head and the eunuch asked: "Then the so-called novel in Nanjing was written by you?"

"Your Majesty, it's exactly..."

Then he asked: "Did you write Mulan Ci?"

"Reply to Your Majesty, but it was written by the last general."

Then he asked: "Are you really Nalan Rongruo?"

"Go back to your majesty and I will replace it as it is."

"Well..." The eunuch nodded: "Chen Qianhu, I will leave the matter of surrendering the prisoners to General Li. You don't have to accompany me. Go to Tianjin quickly. Mr. Luo has already gone to wait for you. Oh, by the way,

The one who is afraid of death in Jin Yiwei, according to military law, you, Nanzhen Fusi, can handle it yourself."

Chen Cao was stunned, but then he came to his senses, bowed and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will set off now."

Along the way, Chen Cao came to some understanding. It was rumored that the new emperor had ascended the throne, and all parties in the court were fighting against each other. There were as many people protecting Li Rubai as those impeaching him. This time, Li Rubai's merit was mainly due to himself, so the gang in the court

People don't want to see themselves as a young man who has just debuted. In addition, he belongs to the Jin Yiwei and is a military household, so his official position cannot change too much.

Chen Cao originally thought that after giving up the credit, he would be promoted to an official position of one hundred households with real power or experience department, but he did not expect that he would be directly promoted to one thousand households. He was satisfied, so he took the prison car with Liu Lei and set off towards Tianjin at a high speed.
