Early the next morning, Luo Jian and Liu Lan took Zhao Quan and other escorts out of the east gate, Wang Sicheng had already led six hundred cavalry to wait, and two hundred Minnie gunners were also among them.

"Why are there so many people?" Luo Jian saw that there were too many people guarding this body.

Liu Zhaoji patted the horse and walked over and said: "Xinghua, it is not a small risk for you to go to Nanjing, don't bring more people to go, those small people may do something, and there are many people to deter them." ”

"There's no need for that, is it?" Luo Jian hesitated.

"Why is it unnecessary? Last night, Gao Qiqian sent someone to find me and asked me to meet him, but I put it off, and when you left, I will meet him again to see what tricks he is going to play. Liu Zhaoji said.

After a while, Huang Degong, Li Chengdong and others also arrived.

"Grand Duke, why did I leave so early? We almost didn't make it to see you off. Huang Degong said with a smile.

"Metropolitan Governor, Gao Qiqian asked me to see him last night, I didn't think it was a good thing, so I simply ignored him." Li Chengdong said.

"Oh? Who else did they find? Luo Jian asked with a smile.

"Do you have to be missing me? I've found it, I'm going to see him, it's just that I don't want to follow you, there will be many benefits after following the Ma Gebu. Huang Degong smiled.

"How many benefits? I knew I was going to see him last night! Li Chengdong said exaggeratedly, causing everyone to laugh.

"Xinghua, let them come back quickly and inform us if there is anything, and you must pay attention to safety. Wang Sicheng, you kid come here, if something like the last time Nanjing happens again, I will lock you up for a month when you come back! No, I'm going to have to screw your head! Liu Zhaoji carefully admonished.

Wang Sicheng hurriedly saluted and said: "Report to the division commander, if something like the last time happens again, don't need the division commander to twist it, I will screw my head off myself!" ”

Wang Sicheng's words caused everyone to laugh again.

Shi Kefa arrived at the end, and only said to Luo Jian, "Go early and return early, there are still many things to do in Yangzhou." ”

After talking to Shi Kefa, Luo Jian and his party of more than 600 people set off in a mighty way.

When they arrived at the Guazhou ferry, the sailors and boats left in Guazhou were already waiting here, and it was obvious that Huang Degong and others had already made arrangements yesterday.

When he got to Zhenjiang and went ashore, he continued to get on his horse and head towards Nanjing, Luo Jian was worried that Liulan would not be able to ride a horse for a long distance, but he didn't expect Liulan's riding skills to be really good, he didn't feel tired at all, and he thought it was quite interesting.

When a large group of people arrived in Nanjing, it was already dark and the city gate was closed.

Seeing such a large group of cavalry, the defenders of Jinchuan Gate in Nanjing had long been frightened enough, where did they dare to open the city gate, no matter what Wang Sicheng said, the defenders insisted on not opening the door, Luo Jian had no choice but to deal with it outside the city for a night.

Fortunately, the streets of Nanjing City have already developed outside the city wall, and it is convenient to find a place to live, Luo Jian doesn't care, it is okay to live in a tent with the cavalry for one night, the key is that it is inconvenient for a girl in Liulan.

Early the next morning, Wang Sicheng went to the city gate to report in advance, saying that Luo Jian, the governor of Huaiyang, had returned to Nanjing, and that these cavalry were all escort troops.

When he arrived at the Guogong Mansion in Nanjing City, Steward Li and a group of subordinates were still there, Luo Jian was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he didn't ask them to leave, their supplies were guaranteed by Ruan Dacheng, and they didn't have to worry about food and clothing.

After returning to the mansion and washing up briefly, Luo Jian was about to take someone into the palace to find the emperor, but someone came up to report that Ruan Shangshu was here.

Luo Jian was a little strange, Ruan Dacheng's news came so quickly, he knew it as soon as he returned to Nanjing, in fact, Ruan Dacheng knew it from the Jinchuan Gate guard, this guard has been bought by him, and it is also to find a way back, as soon as Luo Jian arrived last night, the guard will report the news to him.

"Brother Yuanhai, why are you here?" Luo Jian looked for a greeting.

"Xinghua, my brother can't stand you!" Ruan Dacheng arched his hand and said.

"Brother Yuanhai, where did you start with this?" Luo Jian asked.

"I already knew about you, but because of selfishness, the foolish brother didn't inform you in advance, are you embarrassed now?" Ruan Dacheng said very sincerely.

"Hehe, this matter, there is nothing to be embarrassed about, Brother Luo Jian Xie Yuanhai is worried." Luo Jian didn't know Ruan Dacheng's intentions, so he could only deal with it and said.

"I said that Ma Yaocao is really too unimpressive, the situation has just improved, he will unload the mill and kill the donkey, foolish brother, I heard that Li Zhan and his gang are ready to start dealing with you after you enter the court." Ruan Dacheng also confessed to Li Zhan, he has a lot of eyes and ears in Nanjing, and the news is extremely well-informed.

"Oh, a bunch of villains, don't bother with it." Luo Jian finally understood what Ruan Dacheng meant, he wanted to pull Ma Shiying down so that he could replace him.

"Xinghua is going to enter the palace to see the emperor?" Ruan Dacheng asked.

"Exactly."

"How about the foolish brother go with you?"

Luo Jian was not very disgusted with Ruan Dacheng's positivity, and said: "So there is Brother Lao Yuanhai!" ”

Liu Lan was a little puzzled by the side, and it was not good to ask Luo Jian in person, so she was uncomfortable, so she simply asked in English: "What does he mean?" ”

"Instead." Luo Jian replied briefly, and Liu Lan suddenly understood.

"Xinghua, what are you talking about? But what about the kingdom of heaven? Ruan Dacheng asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I'm messing around." Luo Jian said with a smile.

"Alas, Li Niang is an unblessed person, if she can be by Xinghua's side, she must be very happy." Hearing Luo Jian say this, Ruan Dacheng thought of Li Niang, and a sad look appeared on his face.

Liu Lan originally hated Ruan Dacheng for not hesitating to use his daughter as a bargaining chip in order to find a backer for herself, but when she saw him sincerely today, she didn't blame him very much, but this person's official addiction was too great, and although he was close to Luo Jian now, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not have other thoughts in the future.

"Let's go, Brother Yuanhai, how about we go to the palace?" Luo Jian was in a hurry to solve the problem, so he had to set off immediately.

"Xinghua, you are in a hurry, don't you rest?" Ruan Dacheng said with concern.

"Hehe, I've basically stayed on the horse for more than a month, and I'm used to it." Luo Jian smiled and said.

"You guys played well, the emperor and the Ma Ge Department almost ran away in fright, if Xuyi can't hold it, then it won't be guaranteed." When he said this, Ruan Dacheng lowered his voice.

Luo Jian was secretly amused when he heard it.

A few people went straight to the palace when they went out, Wang Sicheng had to take fifty or sixty cavalry with him, this time Luo Jian resolutely refused to let it, so many cavalry on the streets of Nanjing, it was indeed too ostentatious.

A few people only led a dozen guards, and soon arrived at the palace, and when they arrived at Chengtianmen, Ruan Dacheng first stepped forward to let the eunuch go in and report to the emperor, saying that Wei Guogong asked to see him.

After a while, the eunuch came out and said that the emperor was discussing matters in the Wuying Palace, and let them in.

A few people entered the Wuying Hall and saw that there were really a lot of people, Ma Shiying, Li Zhan, Liu Kongzhao, Zhu Guobi and others were all there, I don't know what these people are talking about together.

Ruan Dacheng saw that the emperor summoned these people to discuss the matter and didn't call him, so he chuckled in his heart, thinking that the emperor didn't trust him again?

However, Ruan Dacheng wronged the fat emperor, it was Ma Shiying who deliberately bypassed Ruan Dacheng, today's main topic is how to deal with Luo Jian, Luo Jian arrived in Nanjing last night, everyone knows that today he came to the emperor to do the matter of transferring Luo Jian into the cabinet, what they didn't expect was that Luo Jian ran all the way, and he didn't stop and came directly to the palace, which caught Ma Shiying off guard.

Luo Jian went up to the Wuying Palace, saluted the fat emperor with his fists, and turned around to say hello to Ma Shiying lightly.

"Wei Guogong, I am gathering everyone to discuss how to reward you for your great achievements in Yangzhou, and while you are talking, you are here." Zhu Youxiang saw that Luo Jian and Liu Lan were coming, and his face smiled.

"Your Majesty, do you think Nanjing is safe now?" Luo Jian said lightly.

"Wei Guogong, what does this mean? Isn't there only seventy or eighty thousand left of the hundreds of thousands of Duoduo's army? Could it be that the Yangzhou army is still afraid that they will not succeed? Zhu Youxiang asked in surprise.

"Your Majesty, the Yangzhou army without the Metropolitan Governor may not even be able to defeat 10,000 Qing soldiers, Your Majesty, the Metropolitan Governor can't leave Yangzhou now!" Ruan Dacheng saw that Ma Shiying and the others were discussing things and bypassed him, so he was so angry that he simply gritted his teeth and made a fuss with them.

"Ruan Shangshu is alarmist, right? The Qing soldiers are powerful, but the Yangzhou army can't even beat 10,000 Qing soldiers. When Liu Kongzhao heard this, he knew that things were not good, Ruan Dacheng was about to turn back, so he hurriedly stepped forward to block his words.

"Uncle Cheng Cheng now has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands, right? Huai'an is now occupied by the Quasi-Tower, is it feasible to ask Sincerity to lead the troops to take it back? Luo Jian still said unhurriedly.

"This..."Liu Kongzhao blushed and couldn't say a word, it's okay to play tricks in the court, if you really want to fight, it will cost you your life.

"Metropolitan Governor, the Yangzhou army used to defeat the Qing soldiers by relying on the sharp weapons you brought, but I heard that these sharp weapons seem to have been used up, what does it matter if this metropolitan governor is not there?" Li Zhan said in a weird manner.

"That's right, Duke Weiguo, these divine weapons are gone, you can just go to the court to assist me." Zhu Youxiang felt that Li Zhan was reasonable, and said in agreement.

"What do you mean? This magic weapon is gone, so let the Tartars fight it? After listening to Li Zhan's words, Liu Lan couldn't help it anymore and refuted it.

"A female streamer, who is not at home with a husband and children, runs out to show her face, what kind of system has become, I don't want to tell you." Lee's

"Hehe, what's wrong with the female streamers? Is your mother a female streamer? Can you have without her? When Liu Lan heard this, she was so angry that she calmed down and said coldly.

"Angel Willow girl is right, can I have you without your mother?" The fat man Zhu Youxiang saw that Liu Lan had suffered a loss, and immediately began to turn to help Liu Lan speak.

Liu Lan, who was already angry, suddenly became angry when she heard Zhu Youxiang speak, and turned to Zhu Youxiang desperately and said, "You dead fat man, didn't you tell you last time?" Brother Luo helped you block the Tartars in Yangzhou, and you were at ease as your emperor in Nanjing, how do you say that if you change the hexagram, you will change the hexagram? ”

Liu Lan's words stunned everyone in the hall, even Luo Jian was surprised, Liu Lan was squeezed by Li Zhan's words today and lost her mind.

"I'm a little fat, but I don't want to be so fat, but I'm born so fat, what can you do for me?" Zhu Youxiang didn't get angry when he heard Liu Lan scold him for being a "dead fat man", but was a little embarrassed.

"Bold! Come on, this person dares to insult the emperor in front of the palace, the crime deserves death, hurry up and take her down! Zhu Guobi was the first to react, jumped out and pointed at Liu Lan and shouted.

As soon as Liu Lan saw Zhu Guobi rushing in front of her, she quickly took out her small pistol from her pocket and pointed it at Zhu Guobi and said, "Go far!" Otherwise, you're welcome! ”

Zhu Guobi had never seen this thing, he didn't know how to be scared at all, and he wanted to step forward, Liu Lan was anxious, and he was so scared that Zhu Guobi sat on the ground.

Ruan Dacheng saw Liu Lan shoot Bao Gongzi half to death in Jiangdu, knowing that the things in her hands were powerful, for fear that she would really hurt people and couldn't clean it up, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop Liu Lan.

"Liu Lan, please calm down, this can't hurt people in front of the emperor." Ruan Dacheng stepped forward and carefully persuaded.

PS: I'm sorry for everyone today, it's a little late!
