Only Zhang Shixing frowned and said, "Senior brother, it is really not a gentleman's work to sow right and wrong and sow discord like this. ”

Huang Zhan said with a smile: "The gentleman should be the way of the gentleman, and the villain should be used with extraordinary means. ”

While he was talking, someone from the palace invited Huang Zhan into the palace and said that Shi Gong had important matters to discuss.

Huang Zhan glanced at everyone meaningfully, and then followed the envoy into the palace.

It turned out that Shi Jinqing returned to the palace, remembered Huang Zhan's words, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that there must be a deep meaning in it, so he ordered someone to invite Huang Zhan into the palace and wanted to inquire in detail.

After a short time, Huang Zhan entered the palace, Shi Jinqing lowered his rank to greet him, took Huang Zhan's hand, and said affectionately: "Master Jingyin, you said that on the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly, I am stupid, and I ask Master to make it clear." ”

Huang Zhan smiled and said, "One mountain does not allow two tigers." That Chen Zuyi occupied the key point and ran rampant on the sea, which was a big trouble for the old port, and he should try to get rid of it. ”

When Shi Jinqing heard this, he suddenly woke up and said, "I thought about it for a long time, and I thought that the master was referring to Missoula from Manraka, and it turned out to be King Chen. ”

Shi Jinqing's son Shi Jimin shook his head and said: "Master Jingyin, this is wrong, then Chen Zuyi and we are both Ming people, and we have close contacts with each other, how can we hurt each other?" Besides, the last time our old port encountered a great disaster, he also led his troops to rescue him, although he took some property, it should be. It's all in front of the villagers, and they are safe, how can they attack them. Moreover, we are not enough to have a water army, and we are not his opponents. If you rashly provoke, isn't that self-destruction? ”

His sister Shi Erniang said, "Father, I think what Master Jingyin said has some truth. Among the countries of the South Seas, China's power is the weakest, and all sides are eyeing us. The Manraga Missoula was frightened and retreated after seeing the banner of the Ming envoys, and Chen Zuyi just picked up a ready-made bargain. It is true that we and Chen Zuyi are the same Ming people, but if he annexes our old port, it will increase his strength the most. I think we should strike first, and we must get rid of Chen Zuyi first, so as to deter all countries and make others dare not covet our country. ”

Shi Jimin sneered and said: "Second sister, we don't have a naval army, what are we going to attack Chen Zuyi, do we want those Tan people outside the city to set up a raft to fight with Chen Zuyi?" ”

Shi Erniang was unconvinced and said: "Things are man-made, and the way can always be thought of." ”

Shi Jinqing listened to what the two of them said made sense, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while, looked at Huang Zhan, and said: "You still need to tie the bell to the bell, Master Jingyin, you must have a clever plan, but you can get rid of Chen Zuyi." ”

Huang Zhan smiled slightly: "That's nature." Then he was silent.

Shi Jinqing immediately understood, shook it to the ground, and said: "If Master Jingyin can get rid of Chen Zuyi and keep my old port safe, I, Shi Jinqing, am willing to give up the position of city lord." ”

At this time, Shi Jimin, Shi Erniang, and Huang Zhan blurted out almost at the same time: "No." ”

Huang Zhan made a gesture of please and asked the two of them to speak first.

Shi Jimin said: "Father, your position as the lord of the city is solemnly entrusted by King Liang when he leaves, how can you easily give it to outsiders, and when King Liang returns, how can you explain to him?" ”

Second Sister Shi didn't argue with her younger brother this time, but just nodded heavily to show her agreement.

Shi Jinqing shook his head and said: "I can't maintain the safety of the old port, so I have the heart to let the virtuous, and I hope that Master Jingyin will not shirk." ”

Huang Zhan waved his hand and said, "We are monks, so it is inconvenient for us to participate in secular affairs, so we can only help each other in secret. If it is heaven's wish, after success, I am willing to borrow the precious land to rebuild the Xingsheng Temple and promote my Buddhism. ”

Shi Jinqing said: "This is easy to do, after the matter is completed, I will appoint you as the protector of the country, the status is respected, and then build a temple, the scale far exceeds that of Wanshou Temple." ”

Huang Zhan said with a smile: "Then a word is a decision, and a high-five is an oath." ”

After that, he stretched out his hand and swore an oath with Shi Jinqing's three high-fives.

Then he said to the Shi family: "If you want to get rid of Chen Zuyi, you don't need us to do it, you can use the knife to kill people." ”

Shi Jinqing was a little confused: "Whose knife did you borrow?" ”

Huang Zhan said: "With the sword of the Ming Dynasty, you can kill Chen Zuyi." ”

Shi Jinqing was slightly disappointed when he heard this, and said, "Then Da Ming is thousands of miles away, how can he manage here?" ”

Huang Zhan said: "The knife of the Ming Dynasty is far away in the sky, close in front of you. ”

Shi Erniang's eyes lit up and said, "Master Jingzhi, are you talking about the Ming Zheng He fleet?" ”

Huang Zhan said: "Exactly." ”

Shi Jimin interjected: "Although Chen Zuyi plundered the merchants, he was still the king of the Bolin State, and he also paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty also canonized him, so why should Zheng He, who has no reason, get rid of Chen Zuyi for us." ”

Huang Zhan said: "That Chen Zuyi is greedy for money, and the Ming fleet carries a lot of treasures, as long as we lure him to attack Zheng He's fleet, then he will be destroyed." ”

After hearing this, Shi Jinqing nodded and said, "Then you have to find a reliable person to lobby Chen Zuyi, and this matter can be successful." ”

Shi Erniang offered advice: "Father, Master Jingyin, I heard that Master Jingzhi and Chen Zuyi sat at the same table at the celebration banquet that day, and the two hit it off at first sight and had a very happy conversation. It is better to ask Master Jingzhi to lobby Chen Zuyi, he will definitely succeed and will not arouse his suspicion. Then we leak the news to Zheng He's fleet, and Chen Zuyi will definitely die. ”

After Shi Jinqing heard this, he nodded again and again, and said to Huang Zhan: "I don't know if Senior Brother Ling is willing to do this?" ”

Huang Zhan said: "The poor monk must be a jade to do this." ”

Shi Jinqing thanked him for his kindness, and then sent him out of the palace.

Huang Zhan returned to Wanshou Temple and told Zhang Shixing about the matter, Zhang Shixing's face was unhappy and speechless for a long time.

Wang Shu said on the side: "Senior brother, your plan is not very clever, and you have surrounded our own people, isn't this inviting you into the urn and being a cocoon to bind yourself?" ”

Huang Zhan sighed and said: "That Shi Erniang is young, although she is a woman, she is very cunning, she strongly recommends her junior brother to lobby that Chen Zuyi, I don't want to object, otherwise it seems that we are insincere, and there are ghosts in our hearts." ”

Zhu Yunwen also persuaded: "I don't think Jingzhi will go, let's think about other methods, that Chen Zuyi was born as a pirate, moody, if Jingzhi goes, what is wrong, stealing chickens will not succeed, but will eat rice." ”

Zhang Shixing stood up and said, "Master, senior brother, I'll go." Although I am clumsy and clumsy, I don't know how to write and ink, but I win sincerity, I go to persuade Chen Zuyi, he will definitely believe it. ”

Huang Zhan was greatly moved and said, "Senior brother, I have wronged you this time." However, for the sake of our great cause of recovering the country, we must bear the burden of humiliation. This time we provoked Zheng He and Chen Zuyi to fight, we sit and watch the success or failure, no matter who wins or loses, then Shi Jinqing will be more trusting and dependent on us, after we gain a foothold in the old port, slowly conquer the Nanyang countries, accumulate strength, and then kill back to the Ming Dynasty to restore. ”

Early in the morning, Zhang Shixing simply packed his bags, came to the outside of the city, and took the fishing boat of the Tan people to Bolin State.

Zhu Yunwen and others saw each other off on the shore and told him to take care, Zhang Shixing waved goodbye to everyone and drove all the way to the northeast.

This Bolin country is on the island of East Java (now Kalimantan Island), separated from the old port by the sea, Zhang Shixing traveled at sea for five days, and then arrived here.

When he came ashore and saw that there were many Ming Dynasty merchants doing business here, he stepped forward to ask for the way, came to the front of the palace, and explained his intention to the guards. Although the guard was tall and dark-faced, he could understand the words of the Great Ming, so he went inside.

After a short time, the palace door was wide open, and an attendant came out to lead Zhang Shixing into the palace.

Entering the palace, I saw strange flowers and plants everywhere, the green trees were shady, the palace rooms were all made of huge stones, not like the middle earth, it is estimated that there are many typhoons here, and the house can not be built with bricks and woods.

Coming to the top of the main hall, Zhang Shixing saw a big man wearing a silk cloth, surrounded by Yingluo, wearing a ruler and a golden crown on his head, shaped like a hat, decorated with seven treasure ornaments, shining, with a belt and a gold sword, sitting on a gilt high bed, and supporting his feet with silver kicks. The two maids were dressed in white gauze, decorated with gold flowers and miscellaneous treasures, with graceful figures, holding peacock fans, standing behind them.

This person is none other than Chen Zuyi, the king of Bolin.

As soon as Chen Zuyi saw Zhang Shixing, he stepped down from the Danqi, took his hand, and laughed: "Master Jingzhi, what gust of wind blew you here, since the last goodbye, my old Chen can miss you." ”

Zhang Shixing bowed and saluted: "Since the last goodbye, I have also missed King Chen, so I did not take the liberty to come to visit and hope that King Chen will forgive my sins." ”

Chen Zuyi smiled: "That's good, the two of us really have a heart." Let's go, brother, come with me for a drink. ”

Zhang Shixing was embarrassed and said, "King Chen, you know that I am a monk and cannot drink. ”

Chen Zuyi grabbed his shoulders and said, "This is vegetarian wine, made from coconut, you don't have to worry about drinking it at all." ”

Zhang Shixing came here to be a lobbyist, and it was inconvenient to disobey, so he nodded and agreed.

Chen Zuyi took him to the harem and put on a banquet, with palace maids serving tea and pouring wine, as well as singing and dancing to help the fun, so gentle and wealthy.

When the wine was half-drunk, Chen Zuyi said to Zhang Shixing with drunken eyes: "Master Jingzhi, you see how good this world of flowers is, why are you doing that bitter monk, it is better to be vulgar, follow me, ensure that you eat fragrant, drink spicy, and enjoy glory and wealth for the rest of your life." ”

At this moment, Zhang Shixing was also three points drunk, he waved his hand at Chen Zuyi and said: "King Chen, don't look down on people, brother, I have also seen the world." I used to be the commander of Annan, but Annan was destroyed by the Ming Dynasty, and I had no choice but to go to Xingsheng Temple to become a monk. ”

Chen Zuyi became interested when he heard it: "What is your common name?" ”

Zhang Shixing saw him take the bait, so he said: "My common family name is Chen, so I won't mention my name, so as not to insult my ancestors." ”

Chen Zuyi exclaimed: "It turns out that we are our own family." Then you are the royal family of the Chen Dynasty in Annam? ”

Zhang Shixing waved his hand again and again: "I dare not be ashamed, Chen Wang Mo wants to mention it again." ”

Chen Zuyi said: "Didn't the Ming Dynasty say that it destroyed the Li Dynasty and wanted to find the descendants of the Chen family?" ”

Zhang Shixing said: "They say one thing and do another. Chen Shaodi Chen An became a monk in Xingsheng Temple, so they burned down Xingsheng Temple and killed him. Thankfully, I was out at the time, so I survived. ”

After Chen Zuyi heard this, he slammed the table with his fist, startling the maid who was pouring wine on the side, and the wine was spilled on the ground.

Chen Zuyi said hatefully: "The emperor of the Ming Dynasty doesn't have a good thing. ”

Zhang Shixing said strangely: "King Chen, where do you say this." ”

Chen Zuyi said: "Brother, don't hide it, I am also a prisoner of the Ming Dynasty, and I can't accommodate myself in Middle-earth, so I fled here." ”

Zhang Shixing said: "What crime did King Chen commit? ”

Chen Zuyi said word by word: "The Lanyu case." ”

After Zhang Shixing heard this, his face changed, and he hurriedly took a sip of coconut wine to cover up the past.

The Lan Yu case was handled by him when he was the Jinyi Guard, and it was widely implicated, and the killing was too much, which was really tragic.

Chen Zuyi ignored him, completely caught up in the past, and said slowly: "I used to be a thousand households under Lan Yu, the Duke of Liangguo, and I followed him to the expedition outside the Saiwai, and defeated the Northern Yuan in the battle of Yuerhai, and captured countless people. Later, the crown prince Zhu Biao died, and Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang established Zhu Yunwen as his grandson, and that Zhu Yunwen was too benevolent and unworthy of being a king. Because he was worried that the Zhu family would fall into the hands of others, Taizu ruthlessly killed Lan Yu, Fu Youde and other military generals, implicating tens of thousands of people, including me, I was not allowed to go to the South Seas. After Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, in order to stabilize the throne, he wantonly cut the domain, but there was no general available, and he was finally usurped by King Yan. If the blue jade is still there, where is there any battle of appeasement, and the change of Renwu. Hahaha, what a retribution, retribution. ”
