Wang Qiang said goodbye to Huang Taiji and returned to the pavilion, pondering Huang Taiji's words repeatedly, feeling that this emperor was many times stronger than that Chongzhen, especially Huang Taiji's ideal of creating a peaceful and prosperous era convinced him, national unity, national harmony, people live and work in peace and contentment, the country is strong, and all countries are coming to the dynasty, how much people yearn for and look forward to this picture. But does this ideal have to be realized by a Tartar emperor? Does it have to be done after bloodshed and killing? I'm helping Chongzhen now, am I actually helping Chongzhen to abuse? Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty regarded me as a mortal enemy, and failed to persuade me to surrender, they would definitely do everything possible to get rid of themselves, and the most convenient way for them to get rid of themselves was to spread rumors everywhere, so that Emperor Chongzhen became suspicious, and killed himself by his hand, the terrible thing is that the Qing court knew too much about its own situation, and spread the purpose of running a school and privately visiting Yuan Chonghuan's cemetery, and then made up some rumors out of nothing, so no matter how obscure, with Chongzhen's mediocre and suspicious nature, I am afraid that he will not be able to escape being killed or deposed, In any case, this Emperor Chongzhen can no longer be protected, and he has to think of a way to get rid of his control first. Wang Qiang meditated hard and stayed awake all night, until Tianming had a plan in his heart.

In the next few days, Zhou Ting continued to negotiate with Qing court officials about the demarcation of the border, and the Qing court was very generous, and returned the four county towns occupied to the Ming court.

Wang Qiang stayed in the pavilion every day and did not go out, but some princes and ministers of the Manchu Qing Dynasty admired Wang Qiang's name and came to visit him. After another three days, the border between the two countries was demarcated, the agreement was initialed, Wang Qiang decided to leave for Jinzhou, before leaving, Dolgon feasted Wang Qiang and his party, and gave Wang Qiang a BMW called Treading Snow without a Trace, Huang Taiji and Yu'er also asked Dolgon to transfer gifts to Wang Qiang, Huang Taiji sent a sword, Yu'er gave a piece of jade pendant, the jade pendant's tassel was woven by Yu'er with gold thread, Wang Qiang was naturally thanked.

Wang Qiang and his entourage set off to return to the south, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, six days later has arrived at the outskirts of Jinzhou, can see the head of Jinzhou in the distance, a general of the Ming army came with a team of soldiers to meet, the general told Wang Qiang: during Wang Qiang's trip to Shengjing, Jinzhou wind rumored that he has returned to the Qing Dynasty, will never return, the northeast army and people are panicked, even Hong Dashuai is restless, so now I heard that Wang Qiang has returned, the people of Jinzhou City beat gongs and drums to celebrate, Hong Dashuai led the official army outside Jinzhou City to greet him, A grand welcoming ceremony should be held. In addition, the imperial court's envoy has arrived in Jinzhou, and the emperor's will seems to be to transfer Wang Qiang back to Beijing, and another appointment will be made.

Wang Qiang just smiled when he heard it, the rumor that he had returned to the Qing Dynasty must be a trick of the Qing people to divide the world, and it was expected that he would return to Beijing, but fortunately, he had already thought of countermeasures along the way.

When the team arrived outside Jinzhou City, they could already faintly see the crowd of people greeting them at the city gate. Wang Qiang ordered the stop, and he got out of the carriage and asked his attendants to bring the horse that Dolgon had given him. Wang Qiang said to the army and Zhou Ting: "Hehe, two, this time I went to the Manchu Qing to negotiate peace, the Qing people are very respectful, we not only took a big advantage in the demarcation of the peace talks, but they also gave away treasures and bribed Lord Ben, this horse was given to me by Dolgon, how about you look at this horse?" ”

The soldier came over and stroked the horse's snow-white and shiny fur, and blurted out: "Good horse! What a BMW! The coat color is pure and shiny, the legs are long and the waist is thin, it is really the root bone body of a good horse, and it will definitely be able to travel thousands of miles a day. ”

That Zhou Ting felt that Wang Qiang was very inappropriate to accept gifts from the Qing people, he was an errand in the court, knew Chongzhen's temperament, and was afraid that Wang Qiang's move would arouse suspicion, so he said: "Lord Wang, although this horse is good, it seems that it is not suitable to swagger, after all, it is a Qing thing, and it is transmitted to the court, I am afraid that it will be criticized." ”

"Eh, Lord Zhou is too worried! The Qing court was afraid of our Celestial Empire, so they offered it as a gift, and this horse was like my trophy, what was there to hide? I am going to ride this horse into the city now, to show my mighty majesty. Everyone, please get on board and go! ”

Everyone got on the horse, Wang Qiang took the lead, walked in front of the team, and there were still three miles away from the city, Wang Qiang secretly loosened the reins, and stabbed the snow without a trace of the backbone with an iron needle in his palm, the horse was in pain, neighed, and opened his four hooves and galloped wildly, Wang Qiang deliberately screamed in surprise, and lay on the horse's back. Walking on the snow without a trace is indeed a BMW, running fast, rising and falling steadily, and soon leaving the others far behind, Wang Qiang only felt the wind in his ears, like clouds and fog, and the earth on both sides quickly retreated backwards, making him feel dizzy.

At the gate of the city, thousands of Ming soldiers lined up to greet Wang Qiang, Hong Chengchou stood in front of the team with a cadre of generals, behind the queue were thousands of people crowded and stretched their necks, waiting to see the demeanor of the famous generals of the anti-Qing Dynasty, the students of the Tashan Military Academy were also crowded in the crowd under the leadership of Gu Yanwu, and Zhang Xiaoping and Lan Ting were standing in the corner of the city gate.

Walking on the snow without a trace carrying Wang Qiang rushed towards the city gate, the people who greeted him at the city gate didn't know what was going on, and suddenly there was chaos, and several guards of the Chinese army saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly rushed in front of Hong Chengchou to prepare to intercept the startled horse. Wang Qiang on the horse saw that he was already approaching the crowd, he bit his heart with a horizontal tooth, and pulled the reins fiercely, the horse raised his neck and neighed, the two front hooves firmly stared at the ground, leaned forward, and stopped with a bang, Wang Qiang was pushed by the huge inertia, and he was thrown out of the front of the horse, and fell to the ground like a face pocket!

There was a big chaos at the gate of the city, Hong Chengchou and others saw that it was Wang Qiang who fell off the horse, and they were immediately shocked, and hurriedly surrounded them, and the people in the outer circle heard that Wang Qiang had an accident, and they also rushed forward, and the Ming army in a line quickly stood in a circle and blocked the people out of the circle. Hong Chengchou and the others rushed to the front and saw Wang Qiang lying on the ground, his face was pale, his mouth was foaming blood, unconscious, his left elbow was flipped outward, obviously broken! He hurriedly ordered: "Find a military doctor quickly!" Find a military doctor! ”

The military doctor squeezed to Wang Qiang's side, possessed Wang Qiang's snort, and faint breathing, and said in a loud voice: "It's still alive!" Still alive! Then he touched Wang Qiang's arms and legs, and said: "The left arm is broken, the rest is fine, Lord Wang fell and fainted, he has to be treated quickly, and he is worried about his life if he is late!" ”

At this time, I only heard a girl's sharp shouting: "Let me in!" Bastard! I'm the nephew of Lord Wang! It turned out that Lan Ting saw Wang Qiang fall and wanted to come in, but was stopped by the Ming soldiers and shouted anxiously. A deputy general had seen Lan Ting in Wang Qiang's mansion and knew that she was Wang Qiang's close person, so he ordered her to be let in, Lan Ting, Zhang Xiaoping, and Gu Yanwu squeezed into the circle and rushed to Wang Qiang's side together, Lan Ting leaned down on Wang Qiang's side with a crying voice and shouted: "Uncle, uncle!" I'm Lanting, wake up! ”

Hong Chengchou looked at Wang Qiang with a sad face, anxious in his heart, and said secretly: "Everyone in the world knows that Wang Qiang is a great hero who resisted the Qing Dynasty, and now that I am back in the Northeast, there are already rumors that I am coming back to grab credit, and now Wang Qiang is falling like this in front of me, I can't get the reputation of fighting for power because of jealousy and framing Zhongliang!" Even the emperor is not easy to explain. ”

At this time, the military doctor had already done a simple bandaging for Wang Qiang, a stretcher was carried over, and several people gently carried Wang Qiang on the stretcher and sent him to the hospital in the military camp, Lan Ting, Zhang Xiaoping, and Gu Yanwu followed closely behind, Hong Chengchou explained loudly to the military medical officer: "You must take good care of Lord Wang, what do you need to go to the Shuaifu to ask for it, if something goes wrong, you are the only one who asks!" ”

The military doctor, Nono, walked away in a loud voice.

A good welcome ceremony was disturbed like this, at this time, Zhou Ting and Wang Qiang's entourage and others rushed up, Zhou Ting didn't know what was going on, squeezed into the crowd, and greeted Hong Chengchou, Hong Chengchou asked gloomily: "Lord Zhou, Lord Wang was seriously injured by a frightened horse just now, and he was worried about his life, how could a good horse be shocked?" ”

"Ahh Lord Wang, what about him, but what about others? Zhou Ting asked eagerly.

"I've been taken to the military hospital for treatment, what the hell is going on?" Hong Chengchou asked.

"Hey! Fallen for the tricks of the Qing people! Zhou Ting's face was remorseful, he pointed to the snow without a trace next to him and said: "Commander, please see, this horse is called a snow without a trace, it was given to Lord Wang by the commander of the Qing army, Dolgon, and at that time he also reminded Lord Wang to be careful, but Lord Wang didn't listen to the words of the next, just now he insisted on riding this horse into the city, and he didn't want to have an accident suddenly." From the point of view, this is the Qing people who are afraid of Lord Wang, and specially trained this horse to harm Lord Wang's life! ”

"Oh? That's it! Hong Chengchou was relieved, he already had a plan, Wang Qiang was injured by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so that he could get rid of the external propaganda.

Hong Chengchou immediately returned to his home, and jointly wrote a recital with Zhou Ting, and wrote in detail the situation that Wang Qiang fell into the tricks of the Qing people, was seriously injured, and his life and death were unpredictable.
