Zheng Cai's plan fell short, and naturally the only thing waiting for him was Zheng Zhilong's liquidation.
At this time, he, Zheng Lian and Yang Geng were all tied up and kneeling in the hall, trembling.
"This bastard plotted against the child while his father was not at home. If the heroes of Xia State had not sacrificed their lives to save him, the child would have died in the sea of fire. Not only that, he also killed Uncle Shi."
Although Zheng Zhilong was very weak, he still sat in the middle with a gloomy expression and anger in his eyes.
After listening to Zheng Chenggong's story, his murderous intention had already surged like the sea.
At the same time, I felt endless sadness.
He was leading the Zheng family in the battle, risking his own life, but he didn't expect to be stabbed in the back by one of his own, and he was almost involved.
"Are you from Xia Kingdom?"
Looking at the people who rescued Zheng Chenggong, Zheng Zhilong had a very complicated expression.
He was obviously fighting a life-and-death battle with Xia Guo, but he didn't expect that Xia Guo would step in and save his son.
People from the Xia State Intelligence Department sat aside and did not take any credit.
"When Mr. Zheng decided to return, His Highness was very worried about his safety, and gave special instructions for us to carefully protect him. It is only at the right time that Mr. Zheng's great fortune can turn the crisis into safety."
Hearing this, Zheng Zhilong couldn't help but look surprised.
No matter what, he never expected that Zuo Mengeng would pay so much attention to his son.
I don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad thing?
When Zheng Chenggong heard the reason behind it, his little face turned red with joy.
As expected, Uncle Zuo, whom he admired, was always thinking about him.
Zheng Zhilong was a true hero after all, and he recovered quickly.
"The Zheng family and the Xia State are enemies rather than friends. No matter how difficult it is to change the situation, even if you save Quanzi, don't try to coerce Zheng into compromising."
Obviously he misunderstood Xia Guo's approach.
"We are only protecting Mr. Zheng's safety under His Highness's orders. As for the fight between you and our Xia Kingdom, it is not within our authority. Now that this matter is over and Mr. Zheng is safe and sound, we will take our leave."
Seeing the upright people of Xia State, Zheng Zhilong couldn't help but feel ashamed.
In this situation, he must not have any intentions.
"The grace of saving lives is like a mountain or a sea. Don't dare or forget it. Zheng will definitely repay you in the future."
At his status, if he says this, he must do it.
The people from the Intelligence Department didn't care about themselves. They just nodded, got up and left.
There is no need for them to get involved in the internal disputes of the Zheng family.
After sending away Xia Guo's people, Zheng Zhilong finally wanted to take action on the three traitors.
"Fortunately, my younger brother met Fusong and the others on the way back. Knowing that my elder brother was in danger, he hurried on. Otherwise, it would have been too late to regret it."
Zheng Hongkui also explained why he was able to arrive in time.
He covered Zheng Zhilong's retreat and had a fierce battle with the Dutch, but the front and back legs were less than a day's journey away.
After Zheng Chenggong was rescued by the Xia State Intelligence Department, everyone discussed it and knew that Zheng Cai and others would not give up, and the future would be even more dangerous.
For the current plan, only by notifying Zheng Zhilong as soon as possible can the situation be reversed.
They rushed all the way to Fuzhou, but unexpectedly they missed Zheng Zhilong, and instead met Zheng Hongkui who was coming from behind.
Upon hearing Zheng Chenggong's story, Zheng Hongkui felt like he was in a state of despair.
Regardless of his fatigue, he hurriedly marched through the night and returned to Anhai Town four hours early.
It was this four-hour time difference that saved Zheng Zhilong's life.
When Zheng Hongkui rushed back, the plan of Zheng Cai and the others could not be realized.
On the dock, Zheng Hongkui detained Zheng Lian on the spot and gathered all the troops.
As for Yang Geng who was ambushing outside the Zheng Mansion, the few men and horses in his hands left no room for resistance in front of the army.
Zheng Hongkui rushed all the way to Zheng Zhilong's residence and happened to see Zheng Cai committing the murder.
Without thinking, he broke off a piece of window spirit and threw it towards Zheng Cai.
With his tiger-leopard strength, he knocked Zheng Cai down and Zheng Zhilong escaped from danger.
As for Zheng Cai's murder of Shi Daxuan, because Zheng Chenggong saw it with his own eyes, the evidence was conclusive.
Everyone from the top to the bottom of the Zheng family gathered together, and Zheng Zhilong began to implement the family law.
"Little beast, you almost starved to death on the street. I saw that you were pitiful, so I took you back to my house and adopted you as my adopted son. I thought I treated you well, but you did such a beastly thing. You still have What’s there to say?”
Zheng Cai knew that he was dead.
Even if he begs for mercy, there is no way to survive.
In utter despair, he finally broke out.
"Old dog, you saved my life. But over the years, how much contribution have I made to you through life and death? You ask the big guy, where is Zheng Cai? But you, you have brought back such a little bastard , actually want to snatch my seat. Am I just waiting to lose everything?"
His outburst made everyone understand.
It turns out that Zheng Cai has long regarded Zheng Chenggong as his life and death enemy.
Originally, Zheng Zhilong had been wandering for many years without a fixed residence. Therefore, he had no heirs at an old age, and it seemed that the foundation he had built could not be preserved.
Zheng Cai, his adopted son, supposedly has unquestionable inheritance rights.
Everyone in the Zheng family also thinks so, and they have always regarded him as the future leader of the Zheng family.
However, no one expected that Zheng Zhilong suddenly brought back a child from Japan and said he was his biological son.
Now Zheng Cai's status as adopted son is really just that of an adopted son.
In any case, he cannot be compared with Zheng Chenggong's legitimate son in terms of inheritance rights.
Poor Zheng Cai worked hard for so many years, all she wanted to do was wait for Zheng Zhilong to inherit the business after his death. The result was great, but suddenly all was lost, and my mentality was naturally greatly affected.
However, Zheng Zhilong has great power, which prevents him from making any splash.
All his grievances could only be hidden in his heart, and as a result, his jealousy grew stronger.
Originally, he didn't know when he would become successful.
But he didn't expect that a war would break out between the Zheng family and the Xia State.
If Zheng Zhilong wins, there will be nothing to say, and Zheng Cai can only remain lurking honestly.
But Zheng Zhilong lost the battle, his vitality was severely damaged, and his foundation was no longer so solid.
Zheng Cai regarded this as a God-given opportunity to turn things around.
It happened that he was left to look after the house by Zheng Zhilong, and Zheng Chenggong was imprisoned again for persuading Zheng Zhilong to reconcile with Xia Guo.
Then he made a plan.
Burn Zheng Chenggong, kill Shi Daxuan who returned alone, and then look for an opportunity to kill Zheng Zhilong who returned in defeat.
By that time, all the leaders of the Zheng family were gone.
As long as he does it neatly and without leaving any trace, then he will be the only heir to the Zheng family.
He can then give orders and be the sole master.
He had calculated everything, but he didn't expect that Zuo Menggeng would pay so much attention to a child.
After Zheng Chenggong returned to Fujian, the Intelligence Department has been active around him and knows his situation well.
When Zheng Chenggong was imprisoned, the Ministry of Intelligence was not sure whether a tycoon like Zheng Zhilong would be able to poison tigers and feed their children. Therefore, professional excavation personnel built a tunnel from a very far away place directly to Zheng Chenggong's room.
Unexpectedly, this time he actually saved Zheng Chenggong's life and saw through Zheng Cai's conspiracy.
