Chapter 113: Zheng Jing

Zheng Chenggong coughed heavily, as soon as he heard this sound, the two people separated like lightning, and when they separated, Zheng Xiuwen did not forget to hide the bowl of food under his sleeve, and then knelt upright.

Zheng Jing sold cuteness like a teacher, and said coquettishly, "Father, you scared me." “

Zheng Chenggong didn't look at his son's cuteness, but asked the righteous daughter seriously, "Why do you have to practice martial arts?" ”

Zheng Xiuwen was silent for a while and said, "I hate Wang Fugui, I hate him for killing my mother, I hate my cowardice, I hate that I am too young, I hate myself for being too weak to protect her, I hate myself for not having the strength to protect the people around me." That's why I want to learn martial arts, I want to be strong, I want to be able to protect the people around me. ”

At the end, Zheng Xiuwen fell to the ground, burst into tears and shouted in a hissing voice.

Zheng Xiuwen wiped away her tears, straightened up, and looked at Zheng Chenggong with a resolute face, "I want to learn martial arts, I don't dare you disagree in the end, I will try my best to practice martial arts." ”

Zheng Jing saw Zheng Xiuwen crying so much, he said to Zheng Chenggong, "Father ......"

Seeing Zheng Jing speak, Zheng Chenggong shouted, "Shut up, go back to my room quickly." “

Seeing his father's angry appearance, Zheng Jing walked out in fear, and did not forget to signal Zheng Xiuwen to be more careful when leaving.

Seeing Zheng Jing walk out, Zheng Chenggong turned his head to look at this stubborn righteous girl, thought for a while, and said, "You really want to learn martial arts, not afraid of hardship or tiredness!" “

Sammi Cheng said firmly, "I'm not afraid! “

"Well, I can agree with you to learn martial arts. But if you want to practice martial arts, I can only send you to a martial arts hall. “

Zheng Xiuwen agreed without thinking, "Yes!" “

Hearing her promise, Zheng Chenggong was a little happy and a little disappointed.

As a father, he works hard all day long, and his mother often has to help appease the wives of those generals, ignoring her and Zheng Jing.

will lead to Zheng Jing now very eager to have someone to accompany him, and Zheng Chenggong also hopes that his son can be accompanied by more people, but that person cannot be Zheng Xiuwen.

Although she is not Zheng Jing's own sister, after his wife Dong You recognized her as a righteous daughter, she is Zheng Jing's sister. Although there may not be that kind of meaning between them in the end, Zheng Chenggong has to guard against it.

Zheng Jing is his eldest son, and he is likely to inherit his career in the future. And he already has a marriage contract with Fujian Jinshi, the daughter of Tang Xianyue, the military secretary of the Longwu Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty was a dynasty that attached great importance to the Three Principles and Five Constants, ethics and morality.

Once Zheng Jing and Zheng Xiuwen have an affair, then the impact on Zheng Jing will be very bad. Therefore, for the sake of the stability of the Zheng family, Zheng Chenggong absolutely does not allow the possibility of things happening between them.

In order to separate the two, Zheng Chenggong agreed to Zheng Xiuwen's martial arts.

After Zheng Xiuwen left, Zheng Jing was still depressed for a few days.

Seeing the appearance of his son Zheng Jing, Zheng Chenggong was also very depressed!

Zheng Jing is the son who existed before he was reborn, but Zheng Cong only had a place after he was reborn, which made Zheng Chenggong inevitably favor Zheng Cong in his heart and favor him a little more.

As Zheng Cong grew up, this eccentricity became a little obvious.

But since the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, the law of primogeniture inheritance has been established, which makes Zheng Chenggong have some scruples.

If you rashly destroy this system, it is likely to lead to infighting among your subordinates, and the dispute over the national capital of Wanli is a lesson from the past.

Worried about Zheng Jing and Zheng Cong's affairs, Zheng Chenggong couldn't calm down to read a book today.

Throwing the book away, Zheng Chenggong called someone to call the green calyx and asked her to play the piano to relieve her troubles.

Kill Zheng Lian and capture Xiamen that night.

Green Calyx was frightened, and the other singers and dancers were locked up in the wing room by the soldiers of the Zheng family army for the whole night.

After seizing Xiamen, Zheng Chenggong was busy appeasing people's hearts, where did he have the kung fu to manage a singer in the green calyx.

But so many people saw that Zheng Chenggong liked this singer very much that night, Zheng Chenggong didn't speak, how dare his officials deal with the green calyx at will.

After asking them what they meant, the other singers either continued to be raised in the mansion or let them out to marry women.

There was only a green calyx, and the others didn't ask what she meant, and sent it directly to the Zheng Mansion.

When Green Calyx was first sent to Zheng's Mansion, she was very happy.

With a background like hers, she has no hope of being a proper wife, and if she can be bought as a concubine by a scribe or an official, it is the best destination, and as for whether the official or scribe is always ugly, it is up to fate.

But Zheng Chenggong is not single and in a high position, but also young and handsome. If you can give him a concubine, the green calyx will definitely be happy.

It's just that Zheng Chenggong has been on expeditions all day long, and he has long forgotten about the green calyx.

Although Zheng Chenggong hadn't asked for a few months, the steward of the Zheng Mansion didn't dare to give Lu Cao a face and arrange for her to be a slave.

After all, she is the old man's woman, who knows when the old man will think of her.

Green Calyx stayed in the Zheng Mansion in this way, although there was no shortage of food and clothing, but she herself was increasingly worried.

After hearing a lot about what happened to other singers, Green Calyx had long known that if she didn't please the main family while she was young and beautiful, it was best to have a child by her side. When you get old and decrepit, the end is extremely miserable.

Green Calyx didn't want to wait any longer, and soon gossip came out of the backyard, saying that Dong Youyou was jealous......

As soon as Dong You heard the gossip, he immediately beat a few tongue-chewing servants in the backyard. But she knew that once a rumor like this spread, it would be impossible to dispel it.

Dong You had no choice but to persuade Zheng Chenggong to accept the green calyx as a concubine.

Zheng Chenggong remembered that there was a person named Green Calyx, and knowing what happened, Zheng Chenggong knocked her down, and asked her to clean up her thoughts, and then married her.

It's just a concubine! At night, I carried it in a small sedan chair, and invited three or five confidants to drink a few cups, which was considered a courtesy.

After Lu Cao finally became a concubine as he wished, he also put himself in the right position and did a good job of pleasing Zheng Chenggong.

The green calyx has been cultivated since childhood, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing.

If you want to teach such a woman with good color and art, it can be said that she is one in a million, coupled with the green calyx and the willingness to try all kinds of skills, so that Zheng Chenggong feels the pleasure that Dong You, who is deeply influenced by Confucianism and is slightly old-fashioned, cannot experience.

Seeing her so well-behaved, Zheng Chenggong often went to her side to take a break and listen to music.

Listening to the mountains and flowing water played by the green calyx, Zheng Chenggong's irritable heart slowly calmed down and thought about inheritance.

In order to avoid internal friction, prevent the Zheng family from moving and chaotic, and at the same time prevent himself from repeating the tragedy of Li Shimin of Tang Taizong and Zhu Yijun of Mingshenzong, Zheng Chenggong decided to cut off his preference for Zheng Cong and train Zheng Jing as a successor as soon as possible, so as not to have any thoughts of his subordinates.

On the eleventh day of the Lunar New Year, Zheng Chenggong took Zheng Jing to worship Zeng Ying and Lu Ruoteng as teachers.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, when Zheng Chenggong came to the door to ask, Lu Zhengfei and the two of them thought at first that they were teaching Zheng Jing the Four Books and Five Classics, but for Zheng Chenggong's sake, they readily agreed.

However, when he heard that Zheng Chenggong asked them to teach only the practical doctrines of Mencius, Shangshu, and Soldiers, Legalists, etc., and did not need to teach self-cultivation, such as the Analects, the Book of Songs, and the Book of Rites.

Lu Zhengfei and Lu Ruoteng immediately blackened their faces at that time, shook their heads and left, and when they left, they didn't forget to shout with words, misleading people's children, and sons not godfather's mistakes.

In the end, Zheng Chenggong chased them to their door, and they reluctantly agreed to use the way of living in troubled times, but they were only willing to be Zheng Jing's lecturers.

At the same time, in order to train Zheng Jing to pay attention to the sea, Zheng Chenggong also asked Lin Xishan and Hong Xu to be his martial arts instructors, and when guiding and training his martial arts, he also explained interesting things about the sea.
