Chapter 728: Live up to your ideals, live up to the world

PS: Thank you for the monthly tickets voted by the book friends "Yuan Xing" and "Canvas White Sail".

Wu Zheng said very decisively.

But in fact, there is one biggest knot in his heart.

That is, I don't want to get involved with such old forces anymore.

Marriage with the Zhu family has the advantage that the two forces can be quickly combined, even if it is a good match, at least it is a combination.

But the disadvantage is more obvious, once you stick to this force, you will unknowingly fall into the quagmire.

People always have seven emotions and six desires, and they always have relatives and friends.

At that time, all the relatives of the emperor and the country have become their relatives, how can this innovation be carried out and repeat the old things of Chongzhen?

Everything Wu Zheng has done before will be in vain.

Those who have already followed Wu Zheng will have a cold heart, this is an irreconcilable contradiction.

Wu Zheng didn't want to waste a lot of energy on the entanglement of the old and new forces in the future, so he had to make a decision.

Resolute, although there are negative beauties, but, live up to the ideal, live up to the world!

……。

"My uncle's injuries have not healed yet, so it is inconvenient to see guests today. Zhenguo Gong...... Please come back. ”

Standing outside the gate of the Xingguo Mansion, Wu Zheng looked at Wang Yilin strangely, "I heard that the injury of the Xingguo Duke has improved, and he can go to the ground." ”

Wang Yilin rolled his eyes and said, "The rumors are wrong. ”

"Brother Yilin, Gong Xingguo won't be embarrassed to see me, right?" Wu Zheng pushed Wang Yilin away and went straight to the mansion, this should be Tianfu, except for the palace, there is really no place that can stop Wu Zheng, and the Xingguo Mansion is no exception.

Wang Yilin was in a hurry, but he really didn't dare to forcibly stop him, he shouted while chasing, "Wu Zheng, you can't go straight to the Guogong Mansion." ”

This is a tip-off.

Wu Zheng hurried away with his sleeves up, and shouted at the house, "Wang Lao'er, do you think that you can stop me by pretending to be sick?" Come out to me soon. ”

This is the legendary villain.

When Wang Zhiren, who was sipping a wine cup and still holding a greasy, half-gnawed chicken leg in his hand, looked at Wu Zheng who broke in dumbfounded, and was stunned for a long time. Bottle licking and ruin, jacket, playing, worm-level ruffle, Huai Pa playing? Tuo?? Suspicious of crutches? Arm locust beauty play fly talk? handsome

Wu Zheng ignored it, and sat down opposite Wang Zhiren with a big smile, and then said to Wang Yilin: "Brother Yilin is tired of adding a pair of dishes and chopsticks for me." ”

Then he snatched the wine jug from Wang Zhiren and took a sip of the spout.

Wang Zhiren can be regarded as an old oilman who has been in the officialdom for many years, but he really feels helpless in the face of this Wu Zheng who does not play cards according to common sense.

He nodded Wu Zheng, put down half of the chicken leg in his hand, and said: "I'm going to become a prince, and I don't know how to grow up or know how to count etiquette." ”

Wu Zheng ignored him, just mouthed at the dishes on the table.

Wang Zhiren was completely out of options, so he had no choice but to ask, "Say, what's the matter with finding the old man?" ”

Wu Zheng raised his head and said, "I should ask this question." Tell me, why? ”

Wang Zhiren was stunned for a long time, understood what Wu Zheng meant, and sighed: "The old man is not you, and he is not as good as you." The old man is a person who has been cleared once...... After coming back, think about it carefully, the old man feels that this will not be resisted, you can easily say that you will not be subject to the order of the monarch outside, no one will question you, at least no one will suspect that you have the heart to surrender, but if the old man resists the will and allows the Qing army to break through the river defense, the soldiers will come to the city of Tianfu, I am afraid that the world will think that the old man is doing it on purpose...... At that time, I am afraid that I will not be able to wash it even if I jump into the Yellow River. You see, even so, the old man had to hide in the mansion and take the initiative to write a letter to return the land of the three mansions to the court to show his loyalty and innocence. ”

Wu Zheng understood, really understood, this old man did it on purpose, that is to say, he deliberately put himself in a desperate situation, and would rather die to resolve the world's doubts about his release of the Qing army to break through the river defense.

Wu Zheng picked up the wine cup, raised his glass and said, "Xingguo Gong, Wu Zheng respects you with this glass of wine." ”

Wang Zhiren was stunned for a long time, and he smiled bitterly: "The Qing army invaded the capital, and the first evil was the old man...... If the old man hadn't been seriously injured before the battle, he would have stayed in prison at this time. What do you respect me? ”

Wu Zheng said: "If it weren't for the Xingguo Gong to transfer the main force of the naval division to the direction of Zhenjiang, Wu Zheng could only lead Hangzhou Wei to the west and reinforce Yingtianfu. But now, at least we have Jingjiang and Taixing's unfortified, which will play a vital role in the Northern Expedition in the future, which is all due to the credit of Xingguogong. This glass of wine is well deserved! ”

Wang Zhiren burst into tears, and at his great age, he actually cried: "With your words, even if the old man doesn't come back to life this time, it's worth it!" ”

Wu Zheng appeased Wang Zhiren for a while, and then took out a million taels of money and pushed it in front of Wang Zhiren.

Wang Zhiren was stunned, "What do you mean?" ”

Wu Zheng said: "In this battle, more than half of the casualties of the sailors under the command of the Guogong can be used by the Guogong." ”

Wang Zhiren frowned and said, "The imperial court has not treated the bereavement badly this time...... Besides, the old man accepts your silver, and I am afraid that it will not be appropriate to pass it on. ”

Wu Zheng glanced back at Wang Yilin, "This silver is really not mine, speaking of which, it should be Brother Yilin's." ”

Wang Zhiren was puzzled.

Wu Zheng learned about Wang Yilin's army in Yangzhou Mansion to loot the wealthy merchants along the way, and then buried the property obtained halfway.

Wang Zhiren glared at Wang Yilin angrily and scolded: "You just stabbed the old man in a fistula." ”

Wang Yilin didn't dare to say anything.

Wu Zheng hurriedly said: "Jiangbei is an enemy-occupied area, and Brother Yilin didn't attack the ordinary people, so Xingguo Gong doesn't have to blame anymore." If this silver can be used for the great cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty, it will not be worth the infamy of Brother Lin. ”

Wang Zhiren thought for a while and said, "That's fine." The old man took this love from you, and the old man accepted the silver. ”

Wu Zheng said: "I came today, first, to visit the body of the Guogong, and second, I also want to discuss the future of the river defense with the Guogong. ”

Wang Zhiren said: "If you have any good plans, you might as well say it clearly." ”

"Now that the peace treaty has been signed, it is estimated that there will not be a large-scale war between the two sides of the strait in the near future. The sailors of Xingguo Gong may no longer be the focus of the imperial court. Wu Zheng told Wang Zhiren about the emperor's plan to form a total of 15,000 musketeers, "But in fact, in my opinion, the role of the sailor will be more important." The Yangtze River is the lifeblood of commerce and trade in several provinces along the river, and the sailors who control the river can bring the taxes of the merchants on the river into the hands of our dynasty. Of course, this is not only a matter of silver, but also a major event that indirectly affects the north shore and even the Qing court. Imagine what would happen to the other side of the river if Guogong blocked the river for three months or even half a year? It's bound to be chaos. ”
