Because the east of Qingyuan City only relied on the Beijiang River, the Qing army in the east of the city was afraid that the Ming army would attack inside and outside, and the enemy would be attacked on their backs, so they retreated to the southeast of the city under the order of Li Chengdong and camped in order to avoid the front of the Ming army, so that the crisis in Qingyuan City was initially alleviated.

In the past few days, Chen Bangyan, the leader of the righteous division in Qingyuan, actively prepared to meet the army, and he sent his cronies to look out at the city every day, and only a few days later, his cronies saw the smoke and dust rising from the east of the city, and the flags were flying, knowing that the army of the Son of Heaven had arrived, and hurriedly flew to report to Chen Bangyan.

Chen Bangyan was draped all over his body, leading Zhang Jiayu and Chen Zizhuang and other leaders of the rebel army, under the protection of 300 volunteers, opened the east gate and went out of the city to welcome the Son of Heaven. At this time, they could already look at the two flags fluttering from a distance, and all of them raised their eyes to look at the big flags waving in the wind not far ahead. When the eight big characters of "expelling the Tartars and recovering the Central Plains" were clearly visible, Chen Bangyan's eyes were slightly red, his nose was sour, and he couldn't help but cry.

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but it's not time to be emotional.

The Son of Heaven's actions obviously showed that he attached great importance to their safety, and a warmth that he had never felt before came to his heart, and he suddenly felt that everything he had done before was worth it.

Under the city wall of Qingyuan, the military flag hunted, the swords and guns flashed, although a pair of righteous soldiers were hungry, they still stood in a neat array, and they were set out, and in front of the city gate, Chen Bangyan, who was wearing chain mail and wearing a phoenix-winged helmet, stood under it. Behind him, there were more than a dozen scholars and scribes in green cloth shirts and generals in armor, who raised their heads together, waiting for the army of the Son of Heaven who was galloping from afar.

When the Son of Heaven appeared in the field of vision, Chen Bangyan had already led everyone to speed up his pace, walked forward, and when he arrived in front of the Son of Heaven, he knelt down and saluted: "Ministers knock to see my emperor, long live, long live, long live!" ”

He held Chen Bangyan's hand, looked at Chen Bangyan's blood-stained robe, and said movingly: "Zhang patrolled Suiyang in the Tang Dynasty, and Lu Wenhuan guarded Xiangyang in the Song Dynasty, all of which were imperial court barriers and made immortal feats. I have loyal people in the Ming Dynasty, so why can't I prosper? ”

Chen Bangyan's hands trembled slightly with excitement, and he couldn't speak. How dare he think that in the past, a scholar and a mere six-grade soldier, one day he would be praised by the Son of Heaven himself? In his heart, even death is worth it. Zhang Jiayu and Chen Zizhuang and others behind him were praised by the Son of Heaven, and they were also inexplicably moved, full of excitement, and couldn't hide the joy in their hearts.

Zhu Youlang had already heard about Chen Bangyan's actions in the siege of the city these days, and at this time, he saw with his own eyes that the layout of the city gate was lawful, and he admired it very much, and naturally praised it in his words.

After welcoming the car in front of the city gate, on the city tower, a row of volunteers "Bang!" Bang! Bang! "A welcoming firebolt was placed at the sky, and the frightened birds fluttered and flew away.

For the first time, the righteous people saw the Son of Heaven face to face, or the soldiers and civilians who received his attention and raised their hands to him, felt supremely honored. Even if they were crowded behind the crowd and couldn't see the Son of Heaven himself, they only saw the standard-bearer holding the banner and the public servant carrying his shoulder, and he was also very excited.
