Zheng Shicheng was shocked by what his mother said, and he looked at the two people in front of him somewhat absentmindedly.
When the previous emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne, he still adhered to the ancestral motto of the Zheng family as a pure minister for generations.
But after the news came that Taifu Shen and others were beheaded, his thoughts about Chun Chen seemed to be shaken invisibly.
But he was thousands of miles away, not close to the new emperor, and the new emperor didn't make any move towards him, so he didn't think much about it.
When Chenzhou was hit by a disaster and his request for relief from the imperial court failed, he did not waver;
King Zhao captured Linzhou and other places, and Chenzhou was in danger, but the court vowed that King Zhao would not attack and left him to bear all the pressure alone, but he did not waver;
After receiving a secret report, King Zhao might attack Chenzhou at any time, and the Chenzhou army had problems with food and clothing. When the court asked him to find a way, he still did not waver.
Until then, the old mother suddenly appeared and woke him up with words.
Zheng Shicheng faced his true feelings, his eyes became clearer and clearer. He had to admit that now, he was shaken.
"I wonder what your Highness's plan is?" Zheng Shicheng bent down and asked Sheng Ze in a deep voice.
His appearance clearly showed his attitude of surrender.
Zheng Shicheng was called a generation of Confucian generals by the late emperor, so he was certainly not stupid. His mother had appeared here, so his family must have been properly accommodated, and the last trace of worry in his heart was gone.
Mrs. Zheng looked at him with relief. Finally, God was wise and did not let her, the only male member of the Zheng family, die in such an unexplained way.
Shengze cupped his fists and returned the salute, "Master Zheng, follow me to Northern Hubei first, and we will make arrangements when we get there."
Zheng Shicheng did not dare to accept his courtesy. He turned sideways and responded respectfully, "Your Highness has the final say in everything."
He could tell with his toes that since this man dared to let him go to Northern Hubei, Liang Cheng from Northern Hubei must be his.
Even a veteran like Liang Cheng is willing to follow someone, why not him?
What's more, the person in front of him is the legitimate descendant.
After Sheng Zhan announced his death, he could still appear here. Anyone with a little bit of brain would know what was going on.
Zheng Shicheng's thoughts were already quickly thinking about what might happen in the future, and his mind took several turns.
Shengze thought that convincing Zheng Shicheng would require more words, but he didn't expect that Mrs. Zheng's words alone made him make his decision.
"Master, someone is coming." Ling Yun's voice sounded outside the tent.
Shengze looked at the Zheng family's mother and son, "Old madam, Mr. Zheng, let's go."
Zheng Shicheng only took away the most important things and left without hesitation.
King Zhao is different from ordinary extras. In the places he conquers, unless there is fierce resistance, he will not kill people casually.
In other words, even if Chenzhou is captured, ordinary people will be fine.
However, Zheng Shicheng's character made those who followed him loyal, and he was reluctant to let them be liquidated by King Zhao later. Before leaving, he specifically told Shengze to ask them what they meant.
"I swear to follow you to the death!"
Unexpectedly, none of the one hundred and twenty soldiers wanted to stay.
Zheng Shicheng was emotional and sad, looking at Shengze with a bit of expectation in his eyes.
Shengze nodded, "It's a long night and many dreams, let's leave now."
After saying that, he and Ling Yun left first.
Zheng Shicheng quickly asked someone to follow him.
The group of people took advantage of the darkness and quietly left the camp.
…
Shen Qingqian suddenly woke up from her sleep. The hand covering her chest could clearly feel how fast her heart was beating.
She had a nightmare, and the dream was so real, as if it had really happened.
