The gates of the palace are closed, and the palace is brightly lit.

Chen Le led 10,000 horses dressed in white light snow, like a white cloak, standing under the bright yellow walls of the palace city.

"Yulin General Chen Qing came to escort him before, please open the city gate!" Chen Le shouted under the palace walls.

On the palace wall, a figure flashed out of the dense imperial forest army, this figure was wearing a purple and gold crown, two pheasant feathers rose to the sky, wearing gold armor, and a blood-red cloak behind it.

Quan Tianci stood on the palace wall and squinted at Chen Le below and didn't speak, Chen Le sneered when he saw this: "Quan Laoba, what, do you want to say that I don't know if I, Chen, have betrayed, and don't dare to open the city gate and let me in?" ”

Quan Tianci's face changed when he heard the words in the city, and then he took a deep breath and shouted: "Open the palace gate!" ”

As the gate of the palace opened and 10,000 soldiers and horses entered, the rebels also arrived, and the city immediately released arrows to meet the rebels and cover Chen Le and others into the city.

After Chen Le entered the palace, he directly handed over all his 10,000 soldiers and horses to Zhang Liao, the general of Yulin, who guarded the palace, and then walked towards Qianzhao Palace with only one personal entourage.

This one is the one with the highest martial arts among his nine hundred feather forest pro-army, and his name is Li Cunxiao.

Although this Li Cunxiao is only seventeen years old, his strength is amazing, and when Chen Le saw him for the first time, the system directly assessed that he already had the level of a second-rate general, which couldn't help but surprise Chen Le at the time.

But Li Cunxiao doesn't seem to know much about his martial arts, this young man usually looks simple and silly, but he is infinitely powerful and proficient in martial arts, because he is an orphan, so Chen Le treats him well, and he treats Chen Le as a relative.

Chen Le has completed a lot of tasks released by the system in the past year and a half, and has also obtained many overlord points, which he exchanged for some weapons in addition to paying off his debts, Li Cunxiao's weapon is a lance, although it is just an ordinary iron lance, but the weight is amazing, Chen Le changed some weapons from low to high to give him.

Li Cunxiao's original martial arts skills did not have a discipline, but since Chen Le gave him a few weapon books, his martial arts have improved by leaps and bounds, and according to the system evaluation, he should soon break through to a first-class master!

Because of this, Li Cunxiao is desperate for Chen Le, and when no one is around, he is called a teacher, Li Cunxiao is not like the four deputy generals, his position is not high, so Chen Le didn't care and let him call him so.

The two of them walked all the way and went straight to the Qianzhao Palace, and every time someone stopped them on the road, Li Cunxiao shouted loudly: "General Yulin, the Western Regions Protector Mansion will protect Chen Qing before coming!" "The eunuch didn't dare to stop him on the way, but some guards belonging to the Royal Forest Army secretly followed behind, after all, they were not in the same line as Chen Le, so they couldn't help but be just in case.

Chen Le didn't care when he saw this, and took Li Cunxiao directly to the door of Qianzhao Palace, only to see two people standing in front of the Qianzhao Palace, one was the great eunuch Gao Wang, and the other was Wu Yunzhao.

"Weichen Chen Qingzhi's escort is late, and I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness." Chen Le said loudly in front of the gate of Qianzhao Palace.

The great eunuch glanced at him and said, "General Chen doesn't have to be humble, His Majesty is waiting inside, go in!" ”

Chen Le left Li Cunxiao in front of the palace gate, pushed open the palace gate alone and walked in!

In the Qianzhao Palace, the candle shadow shook red, and a person sat on the solemn dragon chair, it was Emperor Xu Qiyuan!

Emperor Qiyuan's face was ruddy, he couldn't see the slightest illness, and his eyes were blazing and looking at Chen Le!

Chen Le reacted very quickly, he didn't care whether Emperor Qiyuan had recovered from his illness or had been pretending to be sick, he directly fell to the ground, and shouted in his mouth: "The minister is late for help, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me!" ”

Emperor Qiyuan looked at him and smiled meaningfully: "It's not late, it's not late, you're just in ......."

A month later, Xu Jing's turmoil had already been settled, and the news of Emperor Xu's fraud spread far and wide, and the world said that Emperor Xu was fraudulent, in order to eliminate the disloyal people in the court and the ministers who were plotting against him.

The eldest prince was not arrested, but before he killed himself in the palace, the Xicheng Forbidden Army and the Beicheng Forbidden Army were all bloodbathed, and Da Xu's Western Road Army was purged.

In the blink of an eye, another spring came, Chen Le has been in the Daxu court for two years, in the past two years, he has made friends and subdued many officials in the court, but he deliberately avoided people with family power, and chose some people who did not have much background.

He transferred Chu Hu to his command and became the fifth deputy general of the Nancheng Forbidden Army, and Zheng Xuan also came to take refuge, Chen Le learned after careful questioning that it turned out that he didn't come to participate in the scientific expedition last time because his family had connected him with a marriage, he refused to obey and was confined to his home, and he didn't escape until a while ago.

Because he missed the time for the imperial examination, Zheng Xuan entered the Ministry of Industry under Chen Le's recommendation and served as a minor official of the seventh grade, although the official position was small, Zheng Xuan was very satisfied, and he was unwilling to inform the family of his whereabouts.

On the morning of this day, Chen Le was drinking tea in the General's Mansion, and when he saw the willows and flowers sprouting outside, he couldn't help but ask Yumo next to him: "Senior brother, what time is it today?" ”

Yumo pinched his fingers and said, "Senior brother, it's not too early or too late, today is the day we went out of the city last year!" ”

"Last year's day?" When Chen Le heard this, the corners of his mouth immediately moved, and the figure of a stunning girl appeared in front of him, he took a deep breath and said: "Yumo, today's breeze is harmonious, the sun is shining, it's really a good weather, after changing clothes for my brother, let's go out together." ”

"Ah, senior brother, you still have to go green!" Yumo immediately said with a bitter face.

"Don't talk nonsense, this time you prepare more things, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, dim sum, preserved fruits, etc...... Why do you think of me like that? You are also a person who reads, haven't you heard that you should repay the grace of receiving a drop of water? Last year, how much spring water did you drink? I'm afraid you're going to have to give back a river! Chen Le said with a glare.

"I, I'm ......" Yumo suddenly flattened his mouth and wanted to argue, but looking at Chen Le's fiery face, he finally stopped, and turned around angrily to prepare something.

Two quarters of an hour later, Chen Le came to the outside of the general's mansion in a snow-white robe, got on the horse with Yumo, and walked all the way down Jingshan after leaving the south city gate.

Two people play in the mountains and rivers, walked dozens of miles, about noon came to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, only to see a chic courtyard under the mountain in front of them, this small courtyard is elegant and quiet, quite stylish, the peach tree of the half courtyard is blooming with the peach blossoms of the bewitching ye, you can smell the fragrant aroma far away from the wind, people can't help but feel refreshed.

Chen Le looked at the small courtyard, and suddenly coughed lightly and said, "I have walked a long way, and I am a little thirsty, so I went to the front to ask for a scoop of water to drink." ”

Yumo's face twitched when he heard this, and he said helplessly: "Yes, senior brother." ”
