Chapter Fifty-six Pride is gone

"Report! The imperial edict has arrived, and the imperial envoy has arrived at the camp gate."

The "Four Great Hells" were about to leave the tent, but they were stopped by Ruan Youwen. The four of them were stunned and were about to question Ruan Youwen when they saw a soldier running into the tent to report.

"The imperial edict has arrived?"

"what to do?"

Everyone in the tent was shocked by the news, and they also had their own thoughts.

Chen Jitai and Ruan Youwen were thinking about how to stabilize the imperial envoy and never leak the news of their preparations for rebellion.

Li Desi thought: "The opportunity is so good. How can I find a way to meet the imperial envoy, or find an opportunity to tell him the news that Chen Jitai wanted to rebel."

"Everyone, keep your mouth in mind and follow me to welcome the imperial envoy first." Chen Jitai said.

...

The imperial envoy was a young man of twenty-six or seven years old, wearing the ninth-rank official uniform. Accompanied by two soldiers, he entered proudly, walked to the commander's case, turned around, and said aloud: "The imperial edict has arrived!"

"I will accept the order!"

Chen Jitai led the generals to kneel on the ground.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor's system said: The Qing army Li Chengdong's troops attacked Guangzhou but failed, but turned west. I judged the intention of the Qing army and wanted to attack your troops to lead me out of the city to fight. I had already had an order before, and ordered your troops to move into the South China Sea to resist the enemy with a strong city. Why hasn't they moved? Could it be that they regarded me as the lord who could be deceived and dared to resist the order? Now the Qing army has entered the South China Sea, and the opportunity for your troops to enter the South China Sea has been lost. So I immediately shrink my troops to Sanshui, hold on with the city, and do not go out of the city to fight. Wait for the enemy's food to retreat eastward. I will follow and monitor it to wait for the future. I am here."

"I obey the order! Long live my emperor!" Chen Jitai shouted long live, kowtowed and bowed, and accepted the imperial edict.

Although there are words of rebuke in the imperial edict, since Chen Jitai decided to rebel, he naturally had no fear in his heart. If you like to scold, just scold. Anyway, after tonight, we will no longer have to be afraid of you.

"My uncle, there is another honey decree, which is given to you separately. Please retreat first, generals." The imperial envoy who sent the decree handed over the imperial decree and said to Chen Jitai.

"Okay, all the generals will withdraw from the account first, and don't stay away." Chen Jitai did not doubt it and quickly ordered.

The "Four Great Hells" and Chen Zhongwu, Ruan Youwen and others withdrew from the account in turn, each with their own confidants and stood outside the account far away.

"Uncle Chen, the emperor ordered me to bring you a gift, please accept it first." The young imperial envoy said to Chen Jitai with a smile when he saw everyone out.

"Gift? Haha, how can I afford it?" Chen Jitai was stunned at first, then smiled proudly.

I just questioned myself in the imperial edict and gave myself a gift behind my back. What does this mean? Is this Emperor Yongli too soft?

"I can guarantee that I will be surprised to see this gift. Come on, bring the gift in!"

The imperial envoy said with a smile.

Two soldiers carried into a brocade box.

"Open it, please take a look at Uncle Chen!"

The brocade box opened, and a bloody smell came to your nose!

Chen Jitai was shocked and looked closely. There was a head in the brocade box! After closer inspection, it was his in-law Pan Duoshou!

"The big thing is not good, the matter is defeated!" Chen Jitai instantly realized that the collusion with Pan Duoshou had been exposed.

His thoughts were turned on, and his concern for his family suddenly became in my mind. Chen Jitai immediately pulled out the sword from his waist, pressed against the imperial envoy's chest, and sternly said: "Say, what's the point?"

The young imperial envoy was not afraid, and there was a hint of mockery in his eyes. He looked at Chen Jitai for a moment, then raised his left hand, held an imperial edict in his hand, and smiled slightly: "Uncle Chen, there is still a secret edict yet. Should I wait until the imperial envoy declares the edict and then take your sword to kill you?"

"Take it over and you!" Chen Jitai didn't talk to him, and grabbed the imperial edicts in his hands.

"The Emperor's system of Fengtian Chengyun said: The former is the commander of the fake dynasty Chen Jitai who was summoned by me. Anyway, he had not made any contribution. I would like to be the rank of count, which was the highest among all officials of this dynasty. However, I was crazy, breached the contract, and was ungrateful, and colluded with Pan inside and outside, wanting to follow Dong and Cao's story. I am not afraid of the world's shame and scolding? My order is based on the heavens and the will of the will of the will of the will of the Han Dynasty. Is it comparable to Emperor Xian of Han? I have no virtue and talent, and I am extremely stupid, and I dare to compare myself with Meng De? It is ridiculous. I have the virtue of being a living, but I think that your rebellion has not yet been revealed, and I cannot bear to be implicated by hundreds of your family. I promise you to make meritorious contributions and wash away today's crimes with the blood of the Qing army. If I dare to violate the order, I would rather give your family three feet of green edge?! I am here."

After reading the imperial edict, Chen Jitai's legs became weak, he took two steps back, fell on the coach's chair, and the sword and imperial edict in his hand also fell to the ground.

When the young imperial envoy saw Chen Jitai's appearance, he sneered and said to himself: "Just relying on your determination and ability to adapt, you dare to rebel? You are really impressed. I don't know when it will be thunder and rain, and I don't know how many bowls of dry rice I eat?"

He walked forward, picked up the imperial edict on the ground, and joked to Chen Jitai, who was depressed, and said, "Brother Chen, aren't you obeying the order?"

"Ah? Ah, my minister Chen Jitai received the order, long live my emperor!" Chen Jitai received the imperial envoy's reminder, and reacted and hurriedly returned to the commander's case to kneel down to receive the order.

"Okay, Uncle Chen, the mission is finished, say goodbye!" The imperial envoy handed the imperial edict to Chen Jitai, and said goodbye as soon as he bowed his hand.

"Let's go! The best man, Chen has a few words to ask about the best man. I wonder if he can report it?" Chen Jitai hurriedly held the imperial envoy's hand and asked carefully.

"Why should Uncle Chen do this? If you have anything to say, please tell me. The emperor must tell you everything you know and tell me the truth." The imperial envoy bowed and replied.

"Then, can Chen's mansion be safe?" Chen Jitai asked nervously.

"Uncle Chen, the emperor has already said in his order that as long as you work hard to kill the enemy, you will not implicate the slightest bit of your mansion. Just say that this time Pan Duoshou rebelled, the emperor only killed Pan Duoshou and several former imperial guards, and did not exhaust his family. Even his eldest daughter had linked the traffic information from it, and the emperor ordered him to skip it. Uncle Chen, don't you understand the meaning of this?" replied the young imperial envoy.

"The emperor is wise, the emperor is wise!" Chen Jitai immediately put his heart in his stomach when he heard this.

What he was worried about was actually the eldest daughter-in-law. If even the eldest daughter-in-law was not implicated, it means that his mansion was safe.

"I'm sorry, I wonder if Chen's title can be preserved. Have the emperor ever said anything?" Just as he let go of his concern for his family, Chen Jitai began to worry about whether he would be settled by Qiu Hou.

"Uncle Chen, please forgive me for saying this. You shouldn't ask me. Don't say that the emperor doesn't know what the emperor means. Even if you know, can you say it?" the young imperial envoy replied.

"Yes, yes, Chen has lost his word." Chen Jitai hurriedly gave a gift.

He is now like a frightened bird, and he dare not act like an earl in front of a ninth-rank official.

The young imperial envoy was uneasy when he saw Chen Jitai. In addition to caring about his family, he was also concerned about his future destiny. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with him: "How can such a person lead troops to fight? It seems that I need to say a few more words to encourage him."
