    The howling north wind blew across the wilderness. On the official road that could accommodate four carts running parallel, groups of teams wearing red mandarin duck jackets came walking. Most of these teams were infantry, but occasionally there were a small number of cavalry.  The horse passed by, raising a cloud of dust and smoke, causing the foot soldiers marching on the roadside to curse softly.  ¡î¡ú A large vehicle with a rather ordinary appearance was slowly driving along the official road of the motorcade. Surrounded by this large vehicle were hundreds of cavalrymen in sturdy figures. These cavalrymen were all dressed in iron armor. The armor was very well-made.  It's well-made, and you can tell at a glance that it's expensive.  Although this large car looks quite ordinary, the decoration inside is completely opposite. Not only is the car inlaid with iron plates, but the decoration inside is also exquisite. Behind the car is a walnut bed, and in the middle is  At a small table, two calm-looking middle-aged men were playing chess attentively.  These two people were Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou who were ordered to return to the court after annihilating Zhang Xianzhong. Next to them, a small stove was lit. The Wugang white charcoal in the stove made a crisp crackling sound after burning.  A delicate-looking woman of five or six years old was carefully looking at the charcoal fire. A purple teapot on the charcoal stove was continuously steaming out.  "Pa" With a soft sound, a white chess piece fell on the chessboard. A middle-aged man in a purple robe stroked his beard and smiled after placing the piece, while the middle-aged man in a vermilion official uniform opposite him  The young man frowned a little, and stared at the criss-crossed chessboard with the black pieces in his hand, looking a little hesitant. Although the cart was a little choppy due to the poor official road conditions, the chess pieces on the chessboard were still firmly attached to the chessboard.  Not moving at all.  The middle-aged man in purple robe stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Bo Ya, what do you think of my skills? Can you crack it?" The man opposite wearing a red official uniform looked at it for a while, and then he became angry.  He said: "You, Hong Chengchou, also know Cheng Yaojin's three axes. I will come and compete with you after I have completed the research." The two people in the cart were Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting, who had returned from victory in Sichuan.  I was quite satisfied along the way, and now the army is approaching the capital.  The two of them started playing chess in the car when they were relaxed.  The two of them were working together to exterminate bandits in Sichuan these days, and they got along pretty well. Therefore, although Hong Chengchou was called by his first name by Sun Chuanting, he was not angry, but said with a smile: "I know your level, Boya. I want to  It will take a few more years of hard work to defeat me." Sun Chuanting snorted and then said, "When we get to the capital, I will ask Lu Jiandou to deal with you. Let's see if you still dare to be so arrogant!" "Hahaha" Mr. Hong Chengchou said.  He laughed, "Boya, you can't beat me by yourself, are you planning to hire help?" "Why not?" Sun Chuanting said without changing his expression, "Playing chess is just like fighting. If you can't beat me yourself, you will naturally have to bring in reinforcements.  What's so embarrassing?" "You" Hong Chengchou pointed at Sun Chuanting and laughed.  At this point, the game of chess has come to an end, and the maid on the side brought the freshly brewed tea to the two of them respectively.  Sun Chuanting took the tea cup and sipped the fragrant tea. He felt a faint fragrance falling into his stomach as the fragrant tea fell into his stomach. He closed his eyes and took a long breath before exclaiming: "Hong Yanyan still enjoys it.  With such a big and comfortable car, you can have such good tea even on the way." Hong Chengchou sneered: "You can do it if you want. I wonder if Sun Boya is also a dignified governor of Shaanxi and Gansu.  Isn¡¯t it a joke if I can¡¯t do it?¡± Sun Chuanting laughed lightly: ¡°What do I want with such a luxurious car? Now that the Ming bandits have been defeated, I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t have a chance to lead the army again in the future.  You have to be careful, I heard about it. You have to be careful about that person when you return to Beijing this time." Upon hearing this, the smile on Hong Chengchou's face dropped, and he placed the tea cup heavily on the table.  He said in a deep voice: "The capital is at the feet of the emperor, where hundreds of officials gather. I don't believe he dares to do anything!" Seeing Hong Chengchou's gloomy face, Sun Chuanting sighed in his heart, this Hong Chengchou is usually a very confident person.  He also becomes upset when he hears this person's name. It seems that this person puts a lot of pressure on him.  Shaking his head slightly, he took the teapot from the maid on the side and filled the teacup in front of Hong Chengchou. He said softly: "Brother Yan Yan, to be fair, what you did in Shanxi last time was indeed unethical.  He came out of seclusion to fight the Tatars, but you raided his lair. Even the Ni Bodhisattva would be angry about this. It was very polite of them not to raise troops to chase him all the way. In my opinion, you might as well return to Beijing while this is happening.  I have the opportunity to bow my head and apologize to him. In my opinion, Yue Yang is not a small-minded person. Wouldn't it be better if he could get rid of this problem? " "Huh don't even think about it!" Hong Chengchou said angrily:  "If"If Mr. Hong bows his head like this, how will he meet his colleagues in the court in the future? Will he still need the face of a scholar?"  " "You" Sun Chuanting shook his head helplessly. This Hong Chengchou has become more arrogant since he defeated Zhang Xianzhong. He is sure that the emperor and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will definitely stand on his side this time, but is that Yueyang?  Is this a good thing? You must know that he is a person that even the emperor is afraid of. Sensing Sun Chuanting's unhappiness, Hong Chengchou didn't want to be unhappy with him because of this matter, so he smiled and said: "Okay Boya.  , I have my own opinion on this matter, so you can rest assured.  Yesterday, the imperial court sent someone to deliver an official document. The emperor will personally lead all officials to perform rural labor. We must behave well at that time. We must not embarrass ourselves in front of the emperor and the princes in the court!  " "Well this is natural.  "As soon as this was mentioned, Sun Chuanting's attention was indeed attracted, and he quickly discussed with Hong Chengchou how to queue up to Beijing On November 23, the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, Dongyang Pavilion Bachelor, Third  The border governor Hong Chengchou and the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Sun Chuanting, who had the title of Shangshu of the Ministry of War, led more than 20,000 anti-rebellion troops to the capital to officially accept the reward. Chongzhen led the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and tens of thousands of people to the suburbs of Huixiangting, ten miles away from the capital, to welcome him.  Lao's scene was not a big one. Except for Chongzhen, almost all the officials of the fourth rank and above in the capital came. There were also many people who came to greet him, and the area around Shili Pavilion was densely packed for several miles.  It was noon, and the cold winter wind kept blowing. Chongzhen stood on the Shili Pavilion. There were hundreds of civil and military officials standing outside the pavilion. Everyone stretched their necks and looked outside. Chongzhen asked Wang Chengen beside him: "Big companion."  , have Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou arrived?  "Wang Chengen bowed and said: "Your Majesty, just now news came from the inspector of the Royal Horse Prison. Lords Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting are less than three or four miles away from Shiliting. They should arrive soon.  " As soon as Wang Chengen finished speaking, a burst of shouting suddenly came from the front. Someone with sharp eyes shouted not far away: "The army is here!  " As the words fell, there was a burst of excited shouts from the front, and soon a group of black spots began to appear in front of everyone. It didn't take long, first there were flags, and then groups of soldiers wearing mandarin duck jackets lined up.  About a quarter of an hour later, the team came to a stop in front of Shiliting Pavilion. The two leaders were riding horses, wearing scarlet official robes, and had a wisp of beard under their chin. Although they had different looks.  They were both different but their expressions were extraordinary. When they arrived at Shili Pavilion, they immediately jumped off their horses, strode to the pavilion, knelt down to Chongzhen, who was looking at him with a smile, and said loudly: "Your Majesty Hong Chengchou (Sun Chuanting) Fengtian."  Zi Zhao defeated the bandits, and now he has returned victorious. I have come here to pay your Majesty's decree. May my Emperor live long, long live!  " "Long live my emperor!  ¡± As the voices of the two people fell, a sound like a mountain roar and a tsunami immediately sounded behind them. The sound of the 20,000 troops shouting in unison was naturally extraordinary, and it almost made the ears of everyone around them buzz. Chongzhen almost  He was also startled, but then a satisfied smile appeared on his face. The more elite the army was, the happier he was. Around the pavilion, the civil and military officials who had been standing for a long time looked at them impatiently.  In the endless team behind Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting, many people had smiles on their faces. In their view, no matter how elite these officers and soldiers were, they should be controlled by scholars like them. After all, Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou were both.  He was a serious Jinshi, and could be considered a scholar of Miao Zheng and Hong. He was in the same class as them, so the treatment he enjoyed was naturally different. Moreover, with this elite in the capital, they would like to look at the arrogant and domineering Yue Yang.  How arrogant? Zhou Tingru also stroked his beard and asked Chen Yan beside him with a smile: "Master Chen, what do you think of the soldiers led by Yan Yan and Boya?  " At this time, Chen Yan smiled so much that his old face bloomed like a blooming chrysanthemum. He nodded and said: "According to what I see, it is not an exaggeration to call this army the Tiger and Ben army!  Yanyan and Boya led good soldiers. No wonder they were able to put down bandits such as Zhang Xianzhong who had been causing trouble in Shu for many years. They were indeed well-deserved!  " "What Mr. Chen is saying is that Mr. Hong and Mr. Chen are coming with their armies. We want to see how arrogant that guy is.  "It is rare for the two big guys, Zhou Tingru and Chen Yan, to be so happy. Naturally, there is no shortage of compliments, and soon some people started to flatter them. Listening to the people and horses rolling around below, although Zhou Tingru and Chen Yan were very happy in their hearts, they did not want to lose face.  Zhou Tingru turned around and reprimanded: "Don't be rude. The loyal and brave Marquis is an important minister of the country and has made great contributions to our Ming Dynasty. How can you arrange others.  " "Yes, it's a shame!  "Those who were scolded were not depressed and smiled.Admit your mistake.  When everyone was happy, the sound of horse hooves came, and a cavalryman in dark green military uniform ran over quickly. After being inspected by the guards, he came to Chongzhen and loudly reported: "Your Majesty, the loyal and brave Marquis is in front of the villain."  Come and report that he is ready. Do you want to start the ceremony immediately?" (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
