Zhang Mai stepped into this Aqimu Mansion, listened to Zheng Wei's words, and looked at Zheng Wei's appearance, he had long been a little suspicious, and at this time, he heard Yang Dingbang say that he was the descendant of the Zheng family in the four towns of Anxi, and he was no longer surprised, but suddenly realized.
Yang Yi still sneered: "I said how can I speak Tang Yan, it turned out to be a soft egg who forgot his ancestors." β
Zheng Wei was furious: "What are you talking about! β
Yang Dingbang shouted: "Ah Yi, don't be rude!" Over the years, our broken leaves have been able to survive, and the Zheng family has made great efforts in secret! β
"He helps us?" Yang Yi said: "That's what they should be!" Hmph, I said, how did you recognize him, second uncle? β
Yang Dingbang said: "Zheng Wei has also been to Dengxia Valley, and A Luo has also seen him. He glanced at Zheng Wei a few more times and said, "But he was still young at that time, and if I hadn't heard what he said just now, I would have almost been able to see it." β
"Arlo has seen him?" Yang Yi said indignantly: "This stinky boy is hiding it from me again, hum!" Look back at me and settle accounts with him! β
Zheng Wei squinted at Yang Yi and said, "Are you also from the Yang family?" Hmph, the upbringing is really good! On my first visit, I broke down the door. It seemed that he wanted to apologize, but Yang Yi looked at him with an unhappy look and sneered: "I don't care what reason he has, in short, a good Tang boy doesn't do it, but he changes his surname, what is his name Aqimu, and he is not afraid of insulting his ancestors!" β
Zheng Wei gritted his teeth in anger, but he was speechless, just hateful: "You come with me!" β
Leading the way in front, Yang Yi said: "Be careful of deception." Zheng Wei sneered: "If you don't dare to come, forget it." Yang Yi snorted: "Don't dare? What would I not dare! The whole mansion is surrounded by us! Forgive me for not daring to make any rash moves! β
When I followed him through the corridor, crossed the path, and came to a study, the outside of the study was in the Persian style, and when I got inside, I pushed open a bookshelf, and there was a room in the room, but it was a Chinese style, and when I got here, Zhang Mai thought: "His accent is so positive, not a little suffocated, could it be that he and his family speak in Chinese on weekdays, and then look at the specifications of this hidden study, it seems that although his Zheng family has changed his surname, he still cares about his mother country." β
Yang Yi asked, "What are you bringing us here for?" β
Zheng Wei said: "I'll take you to meet your ancestors!" But I had to change my clothes first. Saying that, he walked into a small room, changed his clothes and came out, Zhang Mai's eyes lit up: I saw Zheng Wei with a light ribbon, and he was crowned on the right side, but he looked like a son of the Central Plains, and anyone who saw it knew that this was a Chinese man, that is, Guo Luo and Yang Yi. However, those blue eyes attracted more and more attention because of this.
If Zhang Mai was in such a study when he came to this world, and when he saw such a person, he didn't need to turn a second thought to know that he had arrived in ancient times!
Zheng Wei said: "Follow me." Turning a bulky vase, a large bookshelf slowly moved away, but inside was a staircase leading to the ground, since he changed his clothes, for some reason, Zhang Mai and Yang Yi had a cordial and even trust in him, at this time not to say much, they followed him into the ground, walked more than 20 steps, turned around, and came to an underground stone room. Zheng Wei lit the lamp, Zhang Mai saw that the stone room was about twenty steps square, laid out in the shape of an ancestral hall, and there were dozens of gods on the east side, of which there were four of the tallest, and the most prominent position in the middle was not "Zheng Zhi", but "Guo Xin"! The rest of the surnames Yang, Lu, and Zheng are listed on the left and right.
The two pillars of the shrine are hung with couplets, and the upper couplet is: Children and grandchildren are ashamed to change their surnames; The next link is: generations of people have been thinking of restoration!
Yang Yi was taken aback, Yang Dingbang and Guo Shiyong turned over and bowed down, and Yang Yi also followed his uncle to prostrate in front of the tablet and kowtow.
Even Zhang Mai was stunned and knelt down to salute.
What he worships is not the official titles of "Anxi Dadu Protector" and "Four Towns Festival Envoy", but a group of Chinese soldiers who defend the country and have no regrets until death!
After saluting, Zheng Wei said: "You understand now! β
Yang Yi's originally sharp words couldn't be said again at this time.
Such a study, such an underground secret room, and such a god tablet could not be faked in a hurry, and the only explanation is that although the Zheng family changed their surname, they still have the Tang Dynasty in their hearts.
But Zhang Mai noticed another detail.
This secret room is sealed, although there are hidden vents, but when I came in just now, I still felt that there was a bad smell, which was the smell of the room after it had been vacant for too long. Then he noticed that there was some faint dust on the Divine Tablet.
Seeing Zheng Wei's deliberate grievances, Zhang Mai pointed to the god lord tablet and said: "This secret room, as well as this god card, although you all still keep it, but the people of your Zheng family should not have come in for a long time." β
The other three people in the secret room were all stunned, Zheng Wei was even more embarrassed, and Zhang Mai said: "We are very happy to see that your Zheng family still retains this god card, and still retains this secret room, but in the jaw, there is a business partner of your Zheng family, Nair Shahi, I heard Abul of the Nair Shahi family say that although the Azimu family has been settled in Kulan City for many years, it seems that they are ready to move to Samarkand as a whole a few years ago, because your business is already there, but because Talas was suddenly Satuk back then." Bogra was captured, so those who didn't have time to leave couldn't goβright? β
Zheng Wei's eyes flashed a hint of discomfort, but he quickly regained his brightness and said, "Yes, there is such a thing." "The main members of the Zheng family, including Zheng Wei's father and two brothers, have moved to Samarkand (Kangju), which is the commercial center of the entire Hanzhong region and the largest city in Central Asia.
"So this secret room and this god card, are you also prepared to move there?"
When he asked this sentence, Zhang Mai's eyes looked straight over, so that Zheng Wei had no room to avoid!
Zheng Wei knew that at this time, as long as his eyes moved slightly, then he would say: "We will move the god card to Samarkand together." "The other party won't believe it anymore.
"This person is really the envoy of Datang!" Such a thought flashed through Zheng Wei's mind.
He hadn't seen the holy decree and the fish talisman yet, but if the other party was not an envoy, how could he have such a righteous and stern reproach?
"In the entire Western Regions, west of the Geluo Pass, there are few people like him now, and they take it for granted to maintain Han unification in their hearts!"
After all, the cultural fault line between here and Datang has been a long, long time.
After the Samanid Dynasty occupied this place a few decades ago, it implemented three orders for the Tang people, such as prohibiting martial arts, changing surnames, and destroying sects, in order to achieve their goal of de-Tangization. Han culture was hit too hard during this time!
Zheng Wei remembered several scenes from his childhood, when his long-lived great-grandfather asked all the male descendants of the family to come to his bed one by one when he was dying, grabbed his withered hand, and swore to him that he would remember his Han family name, and that he could use the surname Hu and his name outside, speak Hui language, Persian language, Zhaowu language, and Arabic language, but when he arrived at home, he closed the door, but he must use the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty to say the words of the Tang Dynasty and use the name and surname of the Tang Dynasty!
At that time, seven-year-old Zheng Wei also agreed and swore an oath. His mellow accent was also cultivated during that time.
But three years later, when his grandfather died, the old man didn't hold out.
At that time, Zheng Wei was ten years old, and he remembered what his grandfather said: "Everyone doesn't have to live so tired, anyway, our family is now considered a big deal, even if there is no Tang Dynasty, our life is very good." But on the side of the new broken leaves, if you can help, let's try to help. β
Slowly, slowly, the Zheng family closed the door, and they didn't necessarily speak Tang dialect anymore, Zheng Wei's brother still had some temperament of the descendants of the Han family, and when it came to his sister Zheng Xiang, he couldn't even write his name in Chinese characters.
There is still a connection with the new broken leaves, but when it comes to Zheng Wei's father, Zheng Wanda, he has become very indifferent, and he is indifferent year by year.
Only as the direct youngest son of the Zheng family, somehow, he has been full of interest in the Tang Dynasty since he was a child, he likes Tang poetry, Tang Yan, and the horizontal knife hidden in the secret room! When I was a teenager, I was hazy several times and had the urge to try to go back to Datang!
"Walking on the road of Li Bai's return to the east, looking for his hometown Chang'an ......"
What a beautiful and heroic journey it was!
But after all, it was just a young man's dream.
Returning to reality, in the midst of Hu Feng and customs, he found that among the descendants of the Zheng family in this generation, he was also like an outlier - the relatives and friends of the Zheng family in the area of Talas in Kulan City spoke Turkic, Zhaowu or Arabic, and believed in Tianfangjiao.
If a person is out of tune with his surroundings, then his life will be like swimming against the water day and night, where can it last long?
As my grandfather said, life is pretty good anyway, so why bother living so tired for the word "Datang".
The Tang Dynasty is already as far away as a dream, and Tang poetry is at most an interest for his brothers and sisters, rather than a poem that can bring silent warmth and stimulate blood longing.
"Brother Zheng? Zheng Gongzi? Azimu! β
Zhang Mai's shouting called him back, and Zheng Wei realized that he had been distracted for a long time.
The word "Zheng" doesn't seem to be as good as "Aqimu" to stimulate his reaction.
"I kind of know what's going on." Zhang Mai said.
The look in the eyes of this envoy made Zheng Wei feel that he couldn't fool the other party.
Zheng Wei has seen a lot of things, is familiar with historical events, and knows that the Middle-earth Dynasty has withdrawn from the Western Regions several times, but when he comes back again, that power and power are extremely powerful and shocking!
"Although this envoy Zhang is young, he can come here alone and make the people of New Broken Leaf City bow down to his orders, I'm afraid he is also a figure like Ban Chao, Li Jing, and Su Dingfang!"
Thinking of this, Zheng Wei felt a little jealous and a little scared in his heart, but for some reason, he was a little excited!
As a smart man, he understood as early as his teens that although the Zheng family and the gang of Wasteland Buns in New Broken Leaf City were still connected, the paths they took were completely different.
Chang'an, Datang ...... It was just a dream of Zheng Wei when he was a teenager.
The city of Kulan, Samarkand, and the Arab Samanid dynasty, and later the Uighur dynasty that occupied the city of Kulan, were the reality of Kairim bin Abdul Azim.
Between dreams and reality, how should he choose?
Facing Zhang Mai's gaze again, Zheng Wei regained his composure and sanity.

People are in other lands, isolated from the motherland, facing the coercion and temptation of foreign regimes, and facing de-China-nationalization
policy, in the face of the pressure of real life, if we are replaced, how many generations can we adhere to?
Without the conscious maintenance of political power, can relying solely on individual cultural transmission really ensure that the flame of civilization will not be extinguished?
