Chapter 35 Chen Zuyi
In the main hall, because of the question that Shi Wuwei had just raised, it also made the atmosphere begin to become solemn. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, Zheng He's face had also put away a smile and became a little serious.
"It's just speculation, not any real evidence. Otherwise, how can we send our soldiers to death innocently? ”。
Shi Wuwei didn't know why, as a eunuch, Lord Zheng, his voice was so strong and low. It was so low that it was impossible to doubt his words.
However, just after Master Zheng finished speaking, just when Shi Wuwei was still thinking, a hurried knock on the door disrupted everyone's thoughts.
"Knock knock", "knock knock".
Three long tones, two short tones, this knocking on the door, means that there is something important to report.
"Please come in~". A man with colored eyes behind Zheng He said in a loud voice.
Then, I saw a soldier in light armor hurriedly stepped forward, bowed down to Lord Zheng and said, "Lord Zheng, there is a person below who claims to be the king of the west of Java, ask to see."
As soon as these words came out, Zheng He did not show the slightest expression of surprise.
Obviously, he had expected this.
"Quasi~". Zheng He said in a positive voice.
Then, he looked at the three of Shi Wuwei, who were a little puzzled and a little frightened, and said with a smile, "Since the three of them fought with this King of the West last night, it is inconvenient to see each other at this moment. Please also enter the screen and avoid it."
As he spoke, he reached for a screen behind his right.
And just now, when Shi Wuwei heard that the King of the West was going to come here to ask for a meeting, he actually felt bad in his heart. Because after all, they are pirates in the palace. And if the king of the West knows that several of his people were actually sent by the Ming army, then this will definitely become an obstacle to the friendship between the two countries, and it will only add some trouble.
So, the three of them listened to Lord Zheng's advice and hid behind the screen.
Because this screen is made of five wooden planks made of huanghuali and spliced together. Therefore, there are some small gaps between the planks and the planks.
At this time, the three of Shi Wuwei were each guarding a gap and observing the movements in the hall.
……….
A moment later, the squeak of the door opening sounded again.
However, before the soldier who led the way could report to Lord Zheng, who was the leader, he saw an elderly man with curly hair and thick lips wearing a white robe and a long brown belt around his waist, already crying and trotting forward.
Then, he knelt directly in the hall, and cried some words that the people in the hall couldn't understand.
But the old man did not come alone, he was accompanied by a Han Chinese.
And when the Han saw that the elder had already knelt, he had no choice but to kneel with him.
"Cut~ What a useless guy!!". Su Wushi, who was behind the screen, saw that the monarch of a country who was still strong yesterday actually knelt down at this moment, so he whispered.
Shi Wuwei also recognized these two people.
That elder was the so-called king of the west who had just unified the kingdom of Java. The Han man beside him was his right protector, Ma Dezhong.
"It seems that the group of people who came and went in a hurry last night and looked panicked should have been sent by the king of the west to check on the dead and the situation on the coast." As soon as he saw King Xi come up, he was crying and shouting, and he also remembered some details of last night.
And just when Shi Wuwei was still wondering why Lord Zheng hadn't reacted for a long time. I saw an old man beside Zheng He, spitting out Tianzhu and saying a word.
However, as soon as these words came out, instead of quieting the king of the west, they made his crying even worse.
Then, Zheng He, who had a somewhat ugly face, saw that the other party had already shown such a low attitude, so he just looked at the Han man beside King Xi, and said in a deep voice, "Why do you kill the soldiers of our dynasty indiscriminately?" ”
The heavy coercion and the majestic momentum erupted from this hall abruptly.
This momentum not only moved Shi Wuwei and a few people, but even the other six people present were shaken.
"This internal force!!! No wonder His Majesty would entrust him with the task of envoying all nations...". Tang Xideng, who was wearing a Confucian robe, was even more shocked when he saw that the other party's momentum was so strong.
Seeing this, Jinyiwei Liu Jin had a trace of schadenfreude in his heart.
"I'm afraid that the object of Lord Zheng's demonstration is not just the two kneeling in the hall."
After that, he turned his head sideways again, looked at the lieutenant sent by the two princes next to his right, and thought, "How could Lord Zheng not know the thoughts of the second prince and the third prince?" ”。
How could he, who is also an important member of the Jinyi Guard, not know the purpose of the second prince and the third prince to send these two people to sea with the ship.
Although the belonging of the sect for the sake of fighting for the Buddha's path seems to be the master. But the ultimate goal of these two people is to win over the general above the hall who once saved His Majesty's life for their master.
……….
At this moment, the right protector named Ma Dezhong was already shocked by Zheng He's momentum and broke out in a cold sweat. So, I saw him trembling and said, "Huh... Reporting to Your Excellency... It's all Chen.. Chen Zuyi.. The deception of the makes!! … Otherwise... Even if we are given 10,000 guts, we will not dare to clash with the Ming army."
"Chen Zuyi?". When Shi Wuwei heard the name again, he had a hint of foreboding in his heart.
Because of this name, he had heard the other party talk about it at night. He remembered that before he started with a few of his own people, he also asked them if they were sent by Chen Zuyi.
It's just that he had never heard of this name at that time, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
But when he heard this name and the words in the other party's mouth at this time, Shi Wuwei was a little puzzled.
"Who is this Chen Zuyi? Could it really be that he's getting in the way? ”。
However, compared to the inexplicability of Shi Wuwei and the others, Zheng He's face still did not show any unusual expression, he seemed to have known Chen Zuyi for a long time.
Or, he may have already known that it was the other party's troublemaker.
So, seeing him pause, Fang said, "What does this matter have to do with Chen Zuyi?" ”。
"My lord.. You don't know it. This Chen Zuyi killed the king of the Bolin State a few years ago, and gathered a group of pirates to set himself up as king. After he sat on the throne, he indulged his subordinates even more recklessly, plundering the property of the South China Sea countries. And yesterday afternoon, Chen Zuyi sent people to come, wanting my Java country to pay tribute to him every year. It's just that his proposal was rejected by my king. Then, he said that he was going to launch an attack on our country....but I didn't expect that last night, instead of meeting Chen Zuyi's pirate army, we ran into your people."
At this time, Ma Dezhong's tone gradually began to tremble.
"Big... My lord... Last night, it was dark and blind, and the pirates were all Han Chinese from the Central Plains, so we really couldn't identify them... That's ..... that's ........."
As soon as these words came out, a loud shout was heard in the hall.
"Bold!! Do you think you've put all the blame on the pirates and you'll be fine? The lives of more than 170 people in my Ming Dynasty, how can you kill them when you say they will kill them? ”。 Ma Shou shouted angrily.
"This....this...... This...". Ma Dezhong and the king of the west beside him didn't know how to say anything for a while when they saw this rugged man in bright armor shouting so loudly. After saying that, he had to look at Master Zheng and Ma Shouyi.
"General Ma," Zheng He said sternly.
"Let Him Finish"
