The version of GE is most probably a mistake – cf. analogous bar 124 as well as 90 and 202. Chopin repeatedly used a similar, characteristic phrase in the Polonaise in E major, op. 22, e.g. in bars 64 and 66 and later also in the Polonaise in F minor, op. 44, bars 29 and 55.

FE (→GE,EE) has a c2 as the 2nd semiquaver. It is a typical Terzverschreibung error of the engraver (or perhaps of Chopin in the Stichvorlage for FE). Chopin corrected the erroneous note in pencil in FES.
