As he spoke, Ji Qingwen took a big stride and walked downstairs with a big stride.

Although Li Yuanyin didn't know what was written in the letter he brought, he also understood that an extremely important event must have happened, so he also went downstairs.

Ji Qingwen saw that Huang Degong downstairs was still drinking and laughing with the woman next to him, so he ordered sharply: "Huang Degong, have you forgotten your mother's words?" Still messing around here, I'm going to do something, come with me! ”

Huang Degong woke up from his dream, didn't care about the wine in front of him and the beauty beside him, said "yes", and got up and walked to Ji Qingwen's side.

Ji Qingwen raised his feet and was about to leave the "Qianyun Tower", when he turned his head and suddenly saw Qian Qianyi looking around with a puzzled face, and immediately summoned Li Yuanyin and said, "Commander Li, have you seen that Qian Qianyi?" You send a few reliable Jinyi Wei brothers to take care of him in this 'Qianyun Tower', and even if he is greeted with good food and drink, he just can't leave here for half a step! ”

He paused, and added, "Also, you can't contact the girl Liu Ru upstairs." ”

Li Yuanyin glanced at Qian Qianyi, frowned and said, "I'm afraid this matter will not be easy to handle." Although Qian Qianyi resigned and didn't do it, his identity was too eye-catching, so he was afraid that things would not be done well......"

"If you can't do it, you have to do it!" Ji Qingwen said categorically, "This matter has a lot to do with the important matters mentioned in this chicken feather letter, if you mess up and miss a big thing, I will ask you!" ”

Li Yuanyin had never seen Ji Qingwen have such an aggressive demeanor and tone, realizing the extreme importance of the matter, he hurriedly ran out of the "Qianyun Tower", led the three people dressed in brocade clothes and guards back again, pointed at Qian Qianyi, and ordered the three people to take care of him here.

When Qian Qianyi saw that he was under house arrest, he immediately shouted and scolded, directly accusing Jinyiwei of being a tiger and acting domineeringly.

However, Ji Qingwen was currently having 100,000 urgent matters to handle, and he didn't have the time or energy to fight with him here, so he waved his hand and left this "Qianyun Tower".

Returning to the Suzhou Weaving Yamen, which was near the left, Ji Qingwen remembered that his two henchmen, Li Yan and Chen Wenzhao, were still managing the wharf affairs in Songjiang Mansion, so he changed his fast horse and galloped to Songjiang Mansion with Li Yuanyin, Huang Degong, and Xiaoduozi.

It took only two and a half hours for them to arrive at the newly built wharf in Songjiang Mansion when the lights were on.

didn't have time to watch the busy scenery on the wharf, so Ji Qingwen and the other three entered through the wall-like cofferdam outside the wharf and walked straight to a four-story building.

This high-rise building, which is in the center of the wharf, and from the top floor, you can overlook the entire wharf and the open sea, which was specially built by Ji Qingwen.

Downstairs, there was a regimental trainer who was specially responsible for guarding, and when he saw Ji Qingwen coming in a hurry, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly greeted him and helped tie the horses up.

At this moment, Li Yan was looking out from afar in the study on the fourth floor, watching the wine and the wind, looking leisurely, and suddenly saw Ji Qingwen and others walking in in a hurry, so he smiled and said, "Brother Ji, what's going on?" Do you look like you're in a hurry? ”

Ji Qingwen came all the way, the water and rice did not enter, his stomach was empty, and he didn't say anything, his throat was so dry that he was about to burst into flames, and when he saw a pot of tea brewed on the table, he stretched out his hand and touched it not hot, picked up the teapot, and drank it directly with his mouth.

Li Yan said with a smile: "Brother Ji, this is an old tea of mine, and the taste is very dry, you can't look like this!" ”

Ji Qingwen put down the empty teapot, burped, and said, "Brother Li, now is not the time to laugh, take a good look at this urgent matter!" ”

As he spoke, he took out the crumpled chicken feather letter from his arms and handed it to Li Yan.

Li Yan took the letter and read it by the light - the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became, and his expression became serious, and at the end of the reading, he finally returned the letter to Ji Qingwen and said: "Brother Ji, this matter is not trivial, we must strictly follow what the letter says, and we can't discount it at all!" ”

Ji Qingwen nodded and said, "That's right, this matter is not a joke at all." However, in order to do it, we must also pay attention to a proper method. We also need to be careful so that we don't make a mistake and set ourselves on fire. By the way, is Chen Wenzhao in the dock now? Call him over first, and then we will counsel and counsel together. ”

So Ji Qingwen instructed Huang Degong to invite Chen Wenzhao upstairs, and asked Xiao Duozi to buy a few hungry side dishes and send them upstairs.

Chen Wenzhao was leading dozens of newly recruited regimental trainers to patrol the dock at the moment, and when he heard that Ji Qingwen had returned to the dock and had important matters to discuss with him, he quickly climbed the small building without saying a word, and when he saw that everyone was among them, he said hello and asked: "Lord Ji, Chen has come over in the starry night, what is there to discuss with me?" ”

Ji Qingwen invited him to sit down, then took out the chicken feather letter and handed it to Chen Wenzhao to read.

Chen Wenzhao is a martial artist and doesn't read much, so he struggled to read this letter, so Ji Qingwen explained it to him from the side-

It turned out that this letter was written to him by Ji Qingwen's master, the old supervisor Sun Chengzong.

The letter said that since Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, the chief soldier of Phi Dao in the middle of this year, the Jurchen Great Khan Emperor Taiji had less worries, so he plotted to invade the Central Plains in a big south, because there were Yuan Chonghuan, Zu Dashou, Zhao Shujiao and others in Liaodong to guard the line of Jinzhou, Ningyuan, and Shanhaiguan, and Huang Taiji thought that it was difficult to break through, so he took a different way to join forces with the Mongols, preparing to take the Jimen line, and go straight to the Beijing division through the Xifeng Pass.

The Jurchen cavalry fought bravely and well-equipped, and they poured out, although Xifengkou, Zunhua, and Jizhou were also heavily guarded, but they lacked experience in fighting with the Jurchens, and it was difficult to guarantee that they would not be attacked by them.

Therefore, Sun Chengzong wanted to mobilize Ji Qingwen's men to go to the countryside to practice and enter the king of Beijing.

This is really a big thing that can't be sloppy.

After listening to Ji Qingwen's introduction, Chen Wenzhao said with a solemn face: "My lord, it seems that between my Qi family army and the Jurchens, there will always be this battle!" However, although our army is now quite effective in training and very well armed, its number is too small to be able to fight a battle. Can Lord Ji discuss with Old Inspector Sun, this time I will go north to King Qin, so I don't have to wait to go? ”

Ji Qingwen shook his head and said bluntly: "No." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to a sentence in the letter and said, "Have you seen it?" This letter was obviously written to me by Mr. Sun, but in fact it conveyed the emperor's will. It's just that the emperor doesn't want to make the world panic because of this incident, so he didn't make a holy decree. Since it is the emperor's will, we can only follow the decree, and there is no room for negotiation. ”

Chen Wenzhao nodded when he heard this, and said, "This is indeed the truth. However, I am afraid that now is not the time to settle accounts with the Jurchens, so I just hope that this time I will go north, our army can retreat with the whole army, and not be like the bloody battle of the Hunhe River in the first year of the Apocalypse, and the whole army will be annihilated......"

Halfway through his words, Li Yan on the side became unhappy, and said coldly: "Why does General Chen want to grow the morale of others and destroy his own prestige? At this time, at that time, this time I go north to King Qin, I don't think it may be a defeat! ”

This Li Yan is extremely talented, and because of this, he has some arrogance that scholars often have, and he is inevitably a little impulsive when he speaks.

Chen Wenzhao is a general who leads the army to fight, and naturally he is also a straight belly, listening to Li Yan say this, he refuses to be soft at all: "Talking about soldiers on paper and shouting a few slogans, who wouldn't?" Real knives and real guns, bright comings and goings, fighting on the battlefield, you are a scholar, can you understand? ”

Li Yan sneered with a "hum": "Zhuge Wuhou (Zhuge Liang) is also a scholar, and he can't play with knives and guns. According to what you say, Wuhou was able to ascend the 'Ten Philosophers of the Martial Temple' just to gain fame and opportunism? ”

"Hahaha!" Chen Wenzhao said with a smile, "Mr. Li actually compares himself to Zhuge Kongming, he is really pretentious and unashamed......"

"That's it! All right! Ji Qingwen saw that these two people were not playing with each other, and immediately interrupted their words, and said, "At present, the enemy is in a hurry, how can you have time to talk nonsense here?" Let's discuss how we should lead the army north. ”

As he spoke, he unfolded the letter again, pointed to the above paragraph, and said: "Teacher Sun said that the Jurchens are fast and strong, and even if they take a detour from Liaodong to Mongolia, they will be able to enter Xifengkou in a month at most. It's the seventh day of October, so we have to rush to Beijing within 20 days! ”
