Chapter 394

    After listening to yanush''s words, alvid wiedenberg seemed to lose interest in talking. He made a gesture to see off the guests. The Swedish officer walked up to yanush and Cherchen and motioned them to follow him.


    Yanushi''s beard stood upright. He didn''t expect that he had waited so long for such a result. He thought that alvid Wittenberg was deliberately insulting himself - why let himself in if he had no intention of negotiating!


    Yanush glanced at alvid Wittenberg with hatred. He turned and was ready to leave.


    Chechen also turned around. Just then the voice of alvid Wittenberg came from behind him.


    "Aleval Chechen, you stay."


    Chechen turned around in surprise. He didn''t understand why alvid Wittenberg wanted to stay by himself.


    Janush also turned back.


    "Commander in chief, this is my entourage," yanush said in a deep voice.


    "Of course I know."


    Alvid Wittenberg stood up and went up to them.


    "Aleval Chechen is the hero of the defence of chinstohova." alvid videnberg laughed.


    "You''ve done a lot of good things," videnberg sighed again.


    Chechen''s heart suddenly trembled. He thought that alvid Wittenberg was going to settle with himself.


    "Commander in chief, I repeat that aleval Chechen is my entourage. If anything happens to him here, I promise that his majesty will ask you to repay ten times and a hundred times." yanush said in a threatening tone.


    Listening to yanushi defend himself so much, Chechen''s heart rises a burst of gratitude for no reason.


    "No, janush, don''t worry. I won''t hurt you, Cherchen. I''ll talk to him, not you," said alvid Wittenberg unexpectedly.


    Negotiating with Cherchen, this not only surprised Cherchen, but also made yanushi unable to react for a moment. But when yanushi reacted, the old man immediately blew his beard and stared.


    "I protest. I am the negotiator appointed by King kazimiz," yanush shouted. He wants to defend the king and his authority.


    "The protest is null and void," said alvid videnbergli.


    Then he asked Cavendish to take the document from yanush and put yanush down.


    Chechen looked uneasily at yanush who was taken away, deeply afraid that Cavendish hurt Natalie''s father. What reassured him was that Cavendish obviously knew the sense of propriety and did not use rough means to take away yanush.


    However, what Chechen should worry about most now should be himself.


    After seeing yanush out of the hall, alvid Wittenberg asked Cherchen to follow him and walk up to the second floor.


    Before, Chechen had been to kazimi Sun Palace and lived here. He knew that the second floor of the main building of Kazimiya palace was mostly bedrooms and guest rooms, but he didn''t know what alvid wiedenberg called when he brought himself to the second floor.


    "Do you want to take me to see sister Christina?" Chechen thought to himself.


    Wittenberg walked down a long corridor and stopped at the innermost door. Wittenberg held the door handle in his right hand and opened the door.


    "Come in, someone wants to see you." Wittenberg said to Chechen behind him.


    Chechen followed Wittenberg into the room. He saw two people in the room. One was a 60 year old man who lay on a rocking chair covered with a thick velvet quilt; Beside the old man sat a woman in cavalry armor.


    "Sister Christina!"


    Chechen recognized Christina. It turned out that Wittenberg really wanted to see Christina himself.


    "Chechen, I didn''t expect us to meet again so soon." Christina looked at Chechen and smiled. And the old man turned his gray head and looked at Chechen.


    The old man tried to hold up his body with his hands and sit up, but he obviously overestimated his current situation. A simple action made the old man pant.


    "Benedict, lie down, lie down."


    Christina quickly comforted the old man to lie down and gently stroked the old man''s chest, just like taking care of her father.


    "I''m fine, I''m fine, Chris. Let me talk to this Cherchen child." the old man named Benedict smiled at Christina.


    "Come here, child," Benedict said to Chechen.


    Chechen glanced at Wittenberg, who stood upright.


    Chechen walked up and stood by the old man''s rocking chair.


    "We agree to surrender to kazimieri." the old man''s first sentence shocked Chechen.


    Chechen looked back at Wittenberg in disbelief.


    "Benedict is the Prime Minister of our kingdom of Sweden, and he and I have no objection to surrender," Wittenberg said.


    Chechen still can''t believe it. His mind is blank, because since Benedict and Wittenberg have decided to surrender, why drive away yanush?


    Cherchen raised the question.


    "That''s because our surrender is conditional, not a treaty condition. It''s a condition that your king will never agree. And you, aleval Chechen, we want to ask you," said Benedict.


    "What conditions?" asked Chechen suspiciously.


    What can a king do that he can''t do?


    Benedict turned to look at Christina, who was looking at him with loving eyes.


    Benedict turned back and looked at Chechen.


    "I want you to help Chris escape from kazimiz," Benedict said.


    Chechen doesn''t understand.


    Didn''t king kazimiz promise to let all the women in Warsaw go? Although Christina used to be the queen of the kingdom of Sweden, she has abdicated now, and kazimiz and Christina are distant relatives. Will the king be bad for Christina?


    Even if the Polish side will threaten Carl x with Christina, Cherchen simply thinks that king kazimiz should only want peace, but isn''t peace between the two countries very good?


    Of course, Cherchen, who had these ideas, was not unwilling to help Christina.


    "Of course I will help sister Christina, but does the kingdom of Sweden want to continue the war?" Chechen asked with such an idea.


    Benedict took a deep look at Chechen. He found that Chechen''s eyes were still clear. This shows that the child does not know the ugliness of politics. Of course, the old man knew what kazimi would do if he got Christina. However, these and Cherchen are not clear in a few words, and a complete discussion of these will also involve Carl X''s orders against Christina. Benedict doesn''t want outsiders to know the scandal of the Kingdom, so Benedict decided to only talk about some "facts".


    "You''re wrong, son. If Chris falls into kazimieri''s hands, the war will never end," Benedict said.


    "It''s impossible!" Chechen couldn''t understand Benedict''s statement.


    "You are too young, son. Do you know why our king invaded the Republic of Poland? The desire for territory and wealth is one reason, but the greater reason is that kazimiz has never given up his quest for the Swedish throne. He wants to become the co Lord of the Republic of Poland and the kingdom of Sweden. It makes sense in terms of blood, because he is also a member of the KASA family. And And he is more rooted than Carl. So his majesty feels threatened. Think about it, if Christina falls into kazimiz''s hands and has the sign of the former queen, kazimiz''s ambition will expand even more, and he will try to annex the kingdom of Sweden. Carl X has no choice but to die with the Republic of Poland. "Benedict said.


    Che Chen shook his head. He can''t understand, because to understand Benedict''s words, we must have a deep understanding of the history of the two countries.


    Benedict was not ready to continue to talk about such a difficult topic. He said: "originally, Wittenberg planned to burn the jade and stone of kazimiz palace. When the poles came in, Chris was ready to commit suicide. Because of your arrival, I dissuaded them. Because I heard Chris talk about your friendship with her, I knew you would help Chris."


    When Benedict said that Christina was ready to commit suicide on the day of city destruction, Chechen believed it, because Christina had her own pride.


    "Of course I will," Chechen mused.


    Then, Chechen began to think about how to secretly take Christina out of kazimi Sun Palace and leave Warsaw. This is obviously a very difficult task.


    Benedict didn''t know what Chechen was thinking. Seeing that Chechen was silent, he thought Chechen hesitated.


    The old man didn''t understand Che Chen''s behavior. At this time, he treated others by himself. If he captured such an important person for himself, he would certainly get such a reward. Just because of friendship, he wouldn''t be selfish.


    "Bring him in," Benedict said to Wittenberg.


    Wittenberg nodded. He turned and went out.


    Bring who?


    Both Cherchen and Christina have doubts on their faces. Especially Christina, Benedict didn''t say anything about her at all.


    After a while, Wittenberg escorted a man whose mouth was blocked by a towel and his body was tied up.


    The man struggled hard and in vain, but such efforts were meaningless. The rope was tied very tightly. Even if he had a thousand pounds of strength, he couldn''t open it.


    "Bao Hong!" Chechen screamed. He recognized the bound man. It is Ivan Baohong, the great hero of the Cossacks.


    "Unexpectedly, Captain Chechen knew him." a trace of surprise flashed in Benedict''s eyes.


    "Since commander Chechen knows his identity, I don''t need to introduce him more. I think you should be very clear about Bao Hong''s position in zaporoze Cossack, which is a figure comparable to hemelinitsky. I''ll give him to you at your disposal now," Benedict said.


    Chechen was as disgusting as eating a fly. Originally, he saw that Benedict thought of Christina wholeheartedly and liked him, but Benedict''s style now made Chechen want to spit on him - it was betraying his friend.


    Christina strongly objected after understanding Benedict''s meaning.


    "No, absolutely not! God, Grandpa Benedict, what a great evil you are!"


    What kind of identity is Bao Hong? He came to alliance with the kingdom of Sweden on behalf of hemelinitsky, that is to say, he is an emissary. Now, Benedict betrayed him for his own self-interest and wanted to sell Bao Hong to Chechen in exchange for Christina''s safety. Someone else would be happy to accept it. Because whether Bao Hong is handed over to Poland or zaporoze''s Cossacks, it can be exchanged for great interests. But Benedict may have thought that Christina would not accept her plan, but he didn''t want to realize that Chechen was by no means a mercenary villain.


    Chechen came forward. He took off the towel in Bao Hong''s mouth.


    As soon as the foreign object in his mouth went, Bao Hong shouted, "Benedict, Wittenberg, you two villains, the devil! The sinner!"


    Benedict and Wittenberg were not ashamed of Bao Hong''s abuse.


    Benedict asked Cherchen, "how about it?"


    "I refuse," said Chechen Li.


    "What!" Benedict was surprised. He even wondered if his "gift" was light?


    "Mr. Benedict, I''m not a politician, so I won''t trade my friends," Chechen said.


    As one of his grandchildren said, Benedict''s sick face also blushed.


    Cherchen continued: "you may think my hesitation is measuring my personal gains and losses, but I tell you: No. I''m just planning how to take Christina out of Warsaw safely."


    "I''m sorry," Benedict said plainly.


    At this time, Chechen suddenly pulled out the short and wide sword around Wittenberg''s waist. With one sword, he cut the rope on Bao Hong''s body.


    The first thing Bao Hong had to do to get rid of the shackles was to raise his fist and prepare to beat Wittenberg.


    "Bao Hong, slow down."


    Chechen stood between Bao Hong and Wittenberg.


    Bao Hong glanced at Chechen and then at Wittenberg. He put down his fist and snorted coldly.


    "Old Mr. Benedict, Bao Hong is also my friend. I can clearly promise you that I will take Christina out of Warsaw safely, and so will Bao Hong. Please remember that people not only use and buy each other, but also have true feelings."


    "Thank you," said Benedict. I don''t know whether the old Prime Minister thanks Chechen for his help or the last words Chechen said to him.


    Cherchen has no time to delve into this problem. He asked Wittenberg, "commander in chief of Wittenberg, is there a secret room or a place where people can hide in kazimi RI palace?"


    "Yes, there was a secret room in Jan kazimige''s bedroom," said Wittenberg.


    Cherchen nodded.


    "Then Christina, you and Bao Hong are hiding inside. When Benedict and Wittenberg go out to surrender, everyone''s attention will be on them. Then I''ll send Fatima and them to take you away."


    "Good!" said Christina.


    "Bao Hong, what about you?" Chechen asked Bao Hong again.


    Bao Hong moved his numb wrist.


    "It seems that I owe you another favor, Chechen." Bao Hong said.


    "Then it''s so decided."


    "Wait a minute!"


    Just when Che Chen thought the matter was settled, Bao Hong suddenly shouted.


    "What''s the matter? Bao Hong?"


    Bao Hong looked at Wittenberg ferociously, which frightened the unarmed Warsaw garrison commander-in-chief.


    "Wittenberg, Blair, how are they?" Bao Hong looked at him with cannibal eyes.


    "I didn''t hurt them. Just tied up like you," Wittenberg quickly explained.


    Bao Hong''s face eased. What worries him most is Blair. They have been poisoned.


    "Well, Cherchen, Blair, they give it to you and let them be the prisoners of your mercenary regiment. When I return to Ukraine safely, I''ll send someone to redeem them." Bao Hong said to Cherchen.


    "Don''t worry, Bao Hong. I''ll take good care of them." Chechen promised.
