During the Ming Dynasty, Xu Jing was holding a bowl of noodles and eating them with a mud. His face was covered with wind and frost, and his clothes, legs, feet and boots were all splashed with mud and dust.

Mrs. Dong brought a copper basin of hot water to serve him to wash. Seeing his voracious look, she couldn't help but sigh.

The curtains were clustered and Chen Zetang came in with Shen Huan. Xu Jing wanted to put down the bowl and get up to greet him. Chen Zetang raised his hand and stopped him, "You will discuss it after you finish eating, don't worry about it for a while." Then he asked Mrs. Dong to pour tea for him.

After Xu Jing finished drinking the last noodle soup, washed it and left everyone behind, he whispered: "The Second Master foreseeing it was not clear. Tang Tongzhang really had a strange intention and sent someone to send a secret letter to Beijing. Although his trip was discovered like a painting, the sender was very cunning and had a strong martial arts skills. I followed Ni Zhong and Zhang Hong and other guards all the way to Beijing, but I was still escaped by him. I was afraid that there would be a big change and I dared not delay it. I hurried to report to the Second Master to know."

Chen Zetang's face slightly condensed: "Where is Tang Tongzhang?"

Xu Jing replied: "As the second master ordered, he killed him on the spot."

Chen Zetang asked again: "Will the King Hao enter the city to make arrangements according to my order?"

Xu Jing Heshou said: "Only those who arrived early in the southeast to enter the city and went straight to Qinglong Mountain, which was about 70,000 people. The remaining soldiers who arrived in the northwest were hiding in counties and towns five miles away from the city, which was about 80,000 people."

When Chen Zetang heard this, he leaned back against the chair, his face seemed calm and said a little: "Tang Tongzhang only knew that King Hao had more than 70,000 people to Nanjing. He reported to the court that this was the case. Xu Lan had already led a large number of troops to Yunnan. The emperor wanted to keep some soldiers to defend the city, and at most 100,000 people to Nanjing to encircle and suppress. He didn't know that there were 80,000 people there... He might as well take advantage of the situation and capture them all. This can boost morale and strengthen troops, which is a good start for this battle."

Xu Jing frowned again and said, "What the Second Master said is very much! But when the emperor receives a secret report, he will issue an order to send troops to dispatch generals to set off at night. It will take several days for King Hao to arrive in Nanjing. There is no one to command the 150,000 troops. What should we do?"

Chen Zetang looked at Chen Huan with a smile on his eyes: "Although I am a civil servant in the court, I have also been on the battlefield to annihilate the enemy. I am lucky to have never lost. Now, in this battle, it is difficult to deal with it again. Since I am not waiting for the time, I should wear a helmet and armor, and be brave enough to fight, and I have no fear."

Xu Jing widened his eyes and asked in surprise: "Does the Second Master want to wear the clothes on his own?"

"What's wrong?" Chen Huan rubbed his palms, his face full of excitement, and muttered in a rough voice: "Eight years ago, helping King Hao to suppress the rebellion in Yunnan, the foreign tribes are still riding horses to fight. Even if they are fighting fiercely, they are still killed by the second master, that is, we, and they are not left with armor. Now they are feeling uncomfortable and have no energy, so they are waiting for this battle to come."

Everyone laughed, Chen Zetang took a bite of tea and pondered: "The important thing at the moment is how to get out of Beijing?"

Xu Jing took his beard and replied: "The Second Master is very worried. Now the patrol officers and the Jinyiwei at the city gate exchange rotation, and the people entering and leaving are strictly investigated. We dressed as woodcutters and were ordered to untied the rope and disperse the firewood to check them all. What's more, who doesn't recognize the appearance of the Second Master?"

The crowd frowned and suddenly heard someone outside the curtain say, "I have a way." Suiyin looked up and the curtain was raised, but Shun Yu walked in with a cloak.

She only loosely tied up her oblique bun, her little face was white and pure, her watery eyes were clear, and her tender lips were red and red.

Mrs. Dong often sees her dressed in a man's outfit, but she doesn't want to dress up as a daughter, but she has such a bright appearance.

Xu Jing quickly stood up and bowed. Shunyu looked at him and was a little surprised: "Why have you lost so much weight?"

Xu Jing smiled bitterly and said, "It is caused by the inability to adapt to the local environment in the north and south."

Shunyu felt sympathy and comforted her: "When this battle is settled, I will help you make up for it."

"Madam..." Xu Jing burst into tears of gratitude.

Chen Zetang coughed and waved her to come to her side, asking in a low voice: "Why are you awake? You are still here?"

Shunyu suddenly woke up somehow. The second master was not by his side and felt panic in his heart. He walked out of the room with his shoes and clothes on his clothes. When he walked to the Ming Dynasty, he saw a guard guard. After listening to this, he realized that such a thing happened... He pursed his lips and asked, "When will the Second Master set off?"

Chen Zetang looked at her deeply: "I thought of a way to leave the city."

Shunyu nodded, took a breath and swept everyone around, and said, "I know that Shangshenjian went to the palace to transport winter vegetables every night during the Chou time, and the Yin-time and space carts left the city, but today is different from the past. Shangshenjian was ordered by the emperor to select wild game transported from Guandong and send it to the Empress Dowager who lives in Tianjin Medical Courtyard. If the emperor's hand-in-hand order comes out of the city, no one dares to stop him. Second Master, you can change the costumes and mix in and out of the city. And the city patrol officer on duty today is Yang Yan, so I'll drag him down."

Chen Huan scratched his head and asked, "How should we get into the convoy of Shangshenjian going north?"

Chen Zetang took the paper and pen, wrote two letters on the table with the light, and said to Chen Huan Chenrong: "Send one letter to Yongting (Feng Shuanglin), and the other letter to Cao Ying. Without further ado, the faster the better." The two of them hurriedly took it and put it in their arms, and took it back first.

Chen Zetang told Xu Jing to go to the farewell room for a while and waited for the order, and asked Mrs. Dong to go to the neighboring room to carry the two little guys. He wanted to take a look again.

When there was no one around, Chen Zetang held Shunyu into his arms, and his tone finally felt guilty: "Jiu'er, you are in danger now, but I'm leaving again..."

Shunyu raised his hand to cover his lips and smiled hard, "Second Master is such a bad thing. I am not an ordinary woman. I have never experienced any shocking things. Just go there. I will take my child to wait for you in the capital... "She paused slightly, and suddenly grabbed Chen Zetang's sleeve and asked, "You will definitely come back safely!"

My eyes turned red in disgrace.

Chen Zetang nodded, kissed her slender fingers, and said softly: "I will definitely do it. I will lead hundreds of thousands of people into the city gate, level the imperial path, step into the palace, capture the treacherous emperor and treacherous ministers alive, help King Hao seize the royal power, and then wherever you are, I will come to see you, and never leave you again... You must cherish your life and wait for me to come back!"

Shunyu put his neck around him, leaned close to his ear and said yes, breathing and dissipating a ray of moisture.

There were rustling feet approaching on the corridor, accompanied by babbling and childish voices.

Shunyu hurriedly stood up from Chen Zetang, and Madam Cuimei and Dong had already brought the child in and showed her a look, looking a little sad.

Chen Zetang took Yuanbao and Xiao Yueliang and sat on his left and right legs. Xiao Yueliang was having a fuss, looking at his father in tears, his face buried in his clothes and continued to fall asleep.

Yuanbao was so energetic that he stared at his father with bright black eyes. Seeing that his father's gaze was also gentle with him, he kicked his fat legs excitedly.

Chen Zetang asked Shunyu to pull the table trunk open, took out a ruler and handed the portrait of a long wood carved man to Yuanbao.

Yuanbao took it and held it in his hand, looked at his father, and then looked at the wooden figure, exactly the same.
