As soon as Geng Zhongming returned to Phoenix Castle, his son immediately ran to see him happily. As soon as they met, he chased Geng Zhongming and asked: "Father, how are you? Has Lu Xiangsheng been deceived?"
Seeing his son's eager expectation, Geng Zhongming did not speak immediately, but just kept looking at his son.
Geng Jimao was a little confused by what he saw. He looked down at himself and found nothing strange, so he asked in confusion: "Father, what's wrong? Could it be that the Ming army discovered something?"
Hearing this, Geng Zhongming suddenly sighed, stared into his son's eyes and said: "Son, daddy tells you that Jianlu's life is like a rabbit's tail and will not grow any longer. For the future of our Geng family, we should take this opportunity. , return to the Ming Dynasty!"
"Ah..." Geng Jimao exclaimed when he heard this. He looked at his father in disbelief, as if he didn't recognize him. After a while, he stammered, "Father...Father, you say what?"
Geng Zhongming knew that his son would find it difficult to accept his views, but he was his own son, so he had to be patient and explain: "Dad went to Guanglu Island this time, and what he saw with his own eyes, I can tell you clearly that the Ming Dynasty is changing." are getting stronger and stronger, and Jianlu's current predicament should be just the beginning. I believe that in a few years, when the Ming Emperor personally conquers Liaodong again, it will be the time when the Jianlu tribe will be exterminated..."
"Impossible!" Geng Jimao shouted and interrupted him before he finished listening. "The Qing Dynasty is invincible. The Ming army occasionally won one or two battles, but it was just a flashback. Father, are you right? Is it because there is no wine to drink? Or, what kind of ecstasy soup did Lu Xiangsheng pour into you? The Qing Dynasty is so powerful..."
"That's enough!" Geng Zhongming's face darkened upon hearing this, and he yelled in a low voice, "How presumptuous! Do you think that my father would change his original intention for a little yellow soup, or that my father would be a young boy like you? Easily confused by appearances?"
Geng Jimao subconsciously shrank under his instruction, but he soon straightened his neck like a stubborn bull and looked back at his father stupidly. It was obvious that he had no intention of listening at all.
Seeing what he meant, Geng Zhongming knew that no matter how much he told him the details, it would probably be useless, so he stood up and said coldly: "In short, dad is doing it for this family and for your own good! It doesn't matter if you don't believe it now, wait until the future When the Ming Dynasty regains Liaodong, you will believe that Jianlu is like a rabbit whose tail cannot grow."
After finishing speaking, he strode towards the door of the study. When he arrived at the door, he turned around, looked at his angry son, and said coldly again: "You'd better stay in the study and don't talk nonsense. Three meals a day, dad." They will be delivered to you. Don’t worry about external matters."
After saying that, he opened the door, stepped out of the threshold, and then ordered the vigilant guards outside: "Look here, don't let anyone come in, and don't let the young master take half a step out of the study door, otherwise don't blame me. Turn your back and deny anyone!"
Several personal guards were Geng Zhongming's closest confidants. Although they were surprised when they heard this and couldn't figure out what was going on, since Geng Zhongming had spoken, they knelt down together and responded with a "cha". .
Seeing their actions, Geng Zhongming couldn't help but frown. It was obvious that he was a little disgusted with Jianlu's behavior. But now was not the time, so he didn't say much.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard movement behind him. He turned around and saw his son following him out with an angry face. Suddenly, his anger surged up from the bottom of his heart, and he immediately shouted: "Go back!"
However, Geng Jimao didn't listen to him at all and immediately went back to his room. Instead, he stared at Geng Zhongming like an enemy and yelled at his father in the same voice: "Geng Zhongming, you ignore the grace of God and really want to betray the Qing Dynasty. From now on, , our father-son relationship is severed..."
When Geng Zhongming heard this, he was so angry that he was trembling. He never dreamed that he could raise such a son!
His face was red, he pointed at Geng Jimao with trembling fingers, and he stammered angrily: "You traitor, you traitor, I...I..."
Geng Jimao obviously didn't want to hear what he had to say, and suddenly shouted out: "Brother Obai, come in, Geng Zhongming has betrayed the Qing Dynasty!"
Geng Zhongming was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help but turn his head to look.
Sure enough, just after Geng Jimao finished speaking, a group of people broke in from the courtyard gate. Although they were wearing casual clothes, he knew them. The powerful man at the head is the yellow mantle in the palace. Batulu, Guarjia-Obai, who became famous for the battle of conquering Pi Island, is a man with yellow banners in Manchuria, and can be regarded as Huang Taiji's confidant.
As soon as Obai appeared, Geng Zhongming understood everything. Obviously, although Huang Taiji said it nicely and believed him, in fact, he was still somewhat defensive about himself.
It's really ridiculous, they are in their own house, but they don't know anything about it. Sure enough, there is a saying that goes well, if you guard against day and night, it will be difficult to guard against house thieves!
Thinking of this, Geng Zhongming thought again of this rebellious son who actually severed the relationship between father and son! Thinking of this, he felt like vomiting blood. Looking back on my life, I feel like such a failure!
In the yard, Geng Zhongming's personal guards first heard the father and son quarreling, and then heard a conversation saying that it seemed that the father was going to defect to the Ming Dynasty. Just when they were shocked by the news, they saw that the father and son had turned against each other and wanted to break off the relationship. relationship, and then Batulu, who was famous in the Qing Dynasty, broke into the yard. For a moment, they were all stunned. Subconsciously, the personal guards were responsible for protecting the general, so they immediately took action and drew their swords to protect Geng Zhongming.
However, Obai didn't seem to see it, and he didn't draw his sword. He just strode closer to Geng Zhongming, which actually forced Geng Zhongming's personal guards to retreat subconsciously, not daring to stand in front of him.
"Your Majesty asked me to come to help King Huaishun, but I didn't expect that I would encounter such a thing. Are you worthy of His Majesty's kindness?" Obai stared at Geng Zhongming and asked sternly.
When Geng Zhongming was drunk by him, he didn't know if he was hurt by his son, but he suddenly burst out laughing, a little crazy. The only thing in the whole yard was his wild laughter.
When Ao Bai saw this, he frowned, ready to get angry, but in the end, he held back.
After a while, Geng Zhongming stopped laughing, looked at Obai, and said sarcastically: "It's really a great kindness to bewitch my son to the point of severing the relationship between father and son, hahaha..."
"If you are really for the Qing Dynasty, how could such a thing happen?" In fact, in addition to being brave and brave, Ao Bai also had a good brain. He immediately asked, "You came to the Qing Dynasty when you had no other choice. Not only did the emperor not care about the past, but he also sealed the deal with you." As King Huaishun, how many people can receive such treatment?"
At this point, he softened his tone, and then said to Geng Zhongming: "As long as you can find your way back and complete the errands assigned by the emperor, I don't need to report this incident, and just pretend it never happened. How about we continue to live in harmony?"
There was no way, Huang Taiji had set up such a big game, Geng Zhongming was a key figure, so Ao Bai resisted the urge to kill Geng Zhongming with a knife, hoping to persuade Geng Zhongming to change his mind.
"Yes, my father, the emperor has given me the title of father-in-law, and it is hereditary. This is a favor that no other family has had!" Geng Jimao didn't know when he had arrived behind Obai, showing a sincere face, and followed Advise Geng Zhongming.
It was okay that he didn't speak. When he said this, Geng Zhongming suddenly became furious and shouted sternly: "You treacherous son, get out of here. I will never see you like this treacherous son again, get out of here!"
But obviously, his words have no effect at all!
Oboi next to him was also a little impatient, and immediately turned to Geng Jimao and asked: "Do you know everything about the Ming army's plan?"
"..." Geng Jimao was a little stupid when he heard it. He didn't expect that things would end up like this. He didn't even know what the Ming army's plan was!
After coming back to his senses, he quickly and respectfully replied to Obai: "As soon as we met, he said that the Qing Dynasty would die sooner or later. I couldn't stand it, so we started to quarrel, and the result..."
Hearing this, Obai couldn't help but frown, and turned back to stare at Geng Zhongming. When he saw the way he stared at Geng Jimao, he knew that he probably wouldn't be able to ask anything, so he waved his hand and said: "Self-search!"
As a result, the men behind him immediately stepped forward. Some cornered Geng Zhongming's personal guards, while others stepped forward and began to search Geng Zhongming's body.
Geng Zhongming did not resist, because he knew that resisting was useless.
The result was also positive, nothing was found. Everything is in Geng Zhongming's mind.
Seeing this result, Ao Bai couldn't help but frown, and immediately asked Geng Zhongming, "Where is the emperor's secret decree?"
"Secret decree? What secret decree?" Geng Zhongming began to pretend to be stupid.
Ao Bai met him and immediately said: "The secret decree that allows you to do things conveniently!"
That secret edict had great power. Now that Geng Zhongming could no longer handle errands for Huang Taiji, he naturally had to take it back.
In fact, Geng Zhongming guessed it right away, but he still showed a clueless expression and said: "I have never received such a secret order. Who gave it to me?"
When Obai heard this, he immediately turned to look at Geng Jimao.
At this time, Geng Jimao became anxious and quickly said to Geng Zhongming: "The day I came back from Shengjing, didn't I give it to you? You read it!"
"Really? Why don't I have this impression!" Upon hearing this, Geng Zhongming sneered and said, "Could it be that you, the rebellious son, are hiding it? Otherwise, if the emperor trusts you so much, why would I have other thoughts? "
"..." When Geng Jimao heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded. How could his father be so deceitful?
However, Obai was not stupid. When he heard this, he knew that Geng Jimao would not tell lies, so he stared at Geng Zhongming and said: "The emperor has spent a lot of effort on this matter, and the Dongjiang Army must also get rid of it." , I advise you to continue doing this job well!"
Geng Zhongming listened and sneered: "I can agree, but will you believe it? Will Huang Taiji still believe it?"
"..." This time, it was Obai's turn to be speechless.
If you want to believe it, you can deceive children, but of course it is impossible for people like Geng Zhongming to believe it.
However, this layer of window paper still cannot be exposed directly. Obai frowned and said: "Please tell me the plan you have discussed with the Ming army, and I will tell the emperor word for word. Believe it or not, the emperor has his own way." Cut it off!”
After hearing this, Geng Zhongming seemed to be very cooperative, and immediately nodded and said: "Okay, Governor Lu will lead the elite, take advantage of your opportunity to surround him, raid Shengjing from thousands of miles away, and take away your lair."
"..." When Ao Bai heard this, he immediately became angry, pointed his finger at Geng Zhongming and shouted, "Don't think that I can't do anything if you don't tell me. Don't blame me for being ruthless if you don't eat the toast or drink as a penalty!"
Geng Zhongming listened and sneered: "What do you want? Use this traitor as a blackmail? Yes, I only have one son. If you torture him hard, maybe I will do it all because of my heartache!"
"..." Geng Jimao was stunned when he heard this.
"Or maybe I still care about his mother, so you can torture her for giving me such a good son!" Geng Zhongming looked at Geng Jimao with a look of irony in his eyes and added.
When Geng Jimao heard this, he was struck again and dumbfounded again: "..."
Seeing him like this, Ao Bai reached out and patted him and said: "Don't worry, the emperor appreciates your loyalty very much. The title of King Huaishun will be yours from now on. Your father is your father, and you are you. The emperor has promised .”
His words made Geng Jimao burst into tears of gratitude, and he quickly knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of Shengjing to express his gratitude.
"Bah!" Geng Zhongming spat at his son. The Geng family was going to be wiped out by this rebellious son!
Ao Bai looked at all this with cold eyes, and said to Geng Zhongming with a slightly colder voice: "If the emperor guessed correctly, Lu Xiangsheng must have personally led the Dongjiang Army, with all the troops at his disposal, to choose a land from the Yalu River and sneak in secretly. , with your cooperation, we will first capture Zhenjiang Fort and Tangzhan Fort. If someone leaks the information, he will pass by Phoenix Castle first without knowing it, and you will intercept it. Finally, together with the Dongjiang Army, Phoenix Castle will also be captured. It’s taken over, right?”
When Geng Zhongming heard this, he couldn't help being shocked and froze there. Because this is the plan he and Lu Xiangsheng discussed.
Before he came back to his senses, Obai said again: "Maybe the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty will also help with this matter and let Guan Ning's army make some changes to attract the attention of the Qing Dynasty, so as to reduce the pressure of the Dongjiang Army. Pressure. Right?"
This time, Geng Zhongming was shocked again. Because Lu Xiangsheng did say so.
Huang Taiji was able to tell this battle strategy, which made Geng Zhongming wonder. Could it be that the Ming army also had detailed work by Jianlu? However, now that the Ming army was gathered on the island, how did Xizuo get the news out?
To be honest, he was a little confused for a moment.
Obai kept staring at Geng Zhongming's expression, and he knew immediately after one look.
