"Zheng's existence today is all because of my punches and kicks, through life and death. Whoever I give it to is his. If I don't give it to you, who dares to rob you? You beast, I saved your life, and I will give you I raised you up, but you repaid kindness with hatred and acted treacherously. If I don't deal with you, how can you serve the public in the future?"
Zheng Cai felt unfair for her experience, but Zheng Zhilong was extremely domineering.
However, his words were also recognized by everyone.
Without Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Group would not be what it is today.
Although everyone else has also contributed and worked hard, Zheng Zhilong is the soul and foundation of the Zheng family.
He certainly has the right to decide to whom the inheritance will be handed over.
What's more, based on human nature, how can anyone not hand over his inheritance to his own blood, but to outsiders?
Speaking of which, Zheng Cai also knew that the overall situation had been decided and it would be useless to say more.
He just stared at Zheng Zhilong angrily, waiting for death.
Changes occurred one after another, and another life and death crisis really exhausted Zheng Zhilong's energy.
Unwilling to delay any longer, he gave the order on the spot.
"Come on, pull these three traitors out, hang them on a wooden pole by the sea, and chop them into pieces."
When they heard that they were going to be sentenced to death, Zheng Lian and Yang Geng were so frightened that they wet their pants on the spot.
It's a pity that no one can save them.
Only Zheng Cai sneered.
He is dead anyway, it doesn't matter how he dies.
But just when they were about to drag the three people out, a teenage boy suddenly rushed out.
"Master Hou, I want to avenge my father with my own hands."
I saw that the child was very strong, with a broad face and a dignified appearance, which was quite extraordinary.
Zheng Zhilong was a little confused.
"Who are you?"
The child knelt down and kowtowed.
"My father was harmed by this thief. I want to avenge my father."
Zheng Zhilong suddenly realized that this was Shi Daxuan's child.
Zheng Zhilong fell in love with his heroic appearance at first sight.
"Okay, I promise you. From now on, you will follow me. Your father is a hero. You can't let his reputation fall."
With Zheng Zhilong's permission, the child was extremely happy. He raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of his eyes and took out a dagger from his arms.
He walked up to Zheng Cai in a few steps, gritted his teeth and cursed: "My father was a hero for a lifetime, so great, but he was killed by you, a thieves, using cunning tactics. Today I will cut your heart open and dig you out." liver to worship my father’s spirit in heaven.”
Zheng Cai, whose expression remained unchanged even after hearing that he was about to be cut into pieces, for some reason, was speechless and dumbfounded when facing this energetic child.
The kid didn't just say cruel words, he also started to fight on the spot.
The blade flashed and sank into Zheng Cai's heart. As he was stirring back and forth, blood spurted out and covered him.
But he was fearless and stabbed Zheng Cai to death in front of everyone with one stab after another.
It was common for the Zheng family to commit murder and swindle goods, and when they saw the ferocity of this child, they all admired him.
The kid stabbed him dozens of times, and finally, with a kacha sound, the blade broke completely.
Only then did he stop, turn around and kneel to the sky outside, kowtow and shout loudly.
"Dad, I will avenge you! After this beast Zheng Cai goes down, you will take care of him yourself."
Zheng Chenggong stood next to Zheng Zhilong. Looking at this young man who was a few years older than him but as majestic as a lion, he couldn't help but fall in love with talents.
"Father, my child is missing a playmate, and he is just the right one."
Originally Shi Daxuan's son, Zheng Zhilong already liked him very much. Seeing that child's appearance of a dragon and a tiger, I knew that he would be extraordinary in the future.
It would be good to stay with Zheng Chenggong and assist Zuo in the future.
"Then leave it to you."
With Zheng Zhilong's permission, Zheng Chenggong walked up to the child.
"what's your name?"
The child had already stood up and said respectfully: "Master, my name is Shi Lang."
Zheng Chenggong nodded and said without any doubt: "From now on, just follow me."
Of course Shi Lang had no objection to following the heir of the Zheng family.
"As commanded."
After dealing with Zheng Cai and the others, Zheng's family was once again internally stable. But in terms of the overall situation, the Zheng family is still in a precarious situation.
"You rush to Fuzhou immediately and get Xiao Zhongcheng's promise no matter what. Without the help of the court, we are still in danger."
Zheng Hongkui also understood that the Zheng family was in danger, so he did not dare to delay and set off overnight.
"What did you say? Lost the battle?"
The governor of Fujian, Xiao Yifu, was a chubby fat man. He was dumbfounded, as if a duck egg had cracks, and he was quite happy.
But at this moment, no one is thinking about laughter.
After learning that the Zheng family was defeated by the Xia State, everyone in the Fujian official circles was silent.
They all understood that something was serious.
"Lord Zhongcheng, Xia's navy has colluded with the Dutch and will attack Fujian in the near future. Please make up your mind to protect the country and the people."
Upon hearing Zheng Hongkui's urging, Xiao Yifu's mind went blank and he just nodded blankly.
After Zheng Hongkui went down, he realized that his whole body was covered in cold sweat.
The cloud of war was approaching step by step. Xiao Yifu felt that he should find someone to discuss how to deal with it.
But looking around, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Today's officialdom in Fujian is completely blank.
The chief envoy of the left, none;
Neither did the Right Chief Envoy.
Among the three giants of civil servants in a province, he is the only one who is the polished commander of the governor.
In fact, not only in Fujian, but also in all provinces of the Ming Dynasty, there are many vacancies in the official positions of chief envoys.
The reason is that the appearance of the governor usurped the powers of the chief envoy. Coupled with the turmoil of the current situation, the two officials simply merged into one, and the governor had the power.
And it is not difficult to see from this that Ming Dynasty is really declining and has no confidence.
It is no longer enough to strengthen officials at the provincial level.
Without colleagues of matching status to discuss with him, Xiao Yifu had no choice but to find the Fuzhou prefect and some gentry who had reached official positions to work together to find a solution.
The most ironic thing is that Fujian, as a large province, does not even have a military attache at the rank of general. The person accompanying him in the last seat is just a general.
"If Xia Guo calls, can you take precautions?"
Upon hearing his inquiry, the general's arms trembled, he felt dizzy and sweating.
"Sir, we can't fight! We really can't fight! Even the Zheng family is no match for Xia Guo, so it's naturally difficult for us to defeat them."
Hearing that the generals had this attitude, the others became even more discouraged.
Xiao Yifu looked at everyone and decided to tie everyone to a rope.
"The Emperor's kindness is great, and we all have the responsibility to defend our territory. If the Xia Kingdom is allowed to occupy Fujian, it will be a death sentence. How should we deal with it? Do you have any appropriate strategies?"
Everyone criticized his actions, but they also understood that if they wanted to save their lives, they really had to work together.
The prefect of Fuzhou rolled his eyes and began to blame.
"The one who is at odds with the Xia Kingdom is the Zheng family, not me in Fujian. In this case, when the Xia Kingdom's swords and soldiers come, they should also be blamed on the Zheng family. What does it have to do with our Fujian family? In the opinion of the lower officials, it is better to dispatch proper generals. Let me express my thoughts to Xia Guo. I think Xia Guo is not a brutal and domineering person, so I will understand."
