Verse 3 meets Erjie, and the young phoenix is singing

For a few days, Zheng Kezang didn't find a chance to contact Liu Guoxuan, and I don't know what this General Liu thought. I don't know if he was always determined to intercede for Shi Lang's family, so he hid in the barracks to escape reality on the grounds of military training. However, seeing that tomorrow was the day when Shi Lang's family was beheaded by all the doors, and the time was really very urgent, Zheng Kezang had to bite the bullet and go to the barracks to find Chen Guoxuan.

"Stop! Who are you? Don't you know that this is a military camp, and idle people are exempted? The barracks were naturally heavily guarded, and as soon as Zheng Kezang came to the gate of the barracks, he was stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate.

Zheng Kezang deeply understood the truth that "the king of Hades is good, but the little ghost is difficult", and immediately made a full appearance, and ordered in a deep voice: "You go and report, just say that Zheng Kezang, the eldest prince of the Yanping County Palace, came to visit General Chen." ”

The gatekeeper listened to Zheng Kezang's words, and saw his posture again, how dare he hesitate, and hurriedly said: "It turned out to be the prince, the prince, you wait, the little one will go and inform you of the general." With that, Fei also ran towards the barracks.

"Shizi, the general is invited!" After a while, the soldier quickly ran back, his expression even more respectful.

Under the guidance of the soldiers, Zheng Kezang walked into the barracks, walked through the heavy camp tents, came to the door of the handsome tent, looked at the soldiers who quietly retreated, and strode into the handsome tent.

In the handsome tent, Zheng Kezang was stunned to find that in addition to Liu Guoxuan, who was dressed in military uniform, there was another person, this person was dressed in civilian clothes, and the tea on the table in front of him had not been touched, and it was still steaming, obviously this person had just arrived. But looking at this person, sitting with Chen Guoxuan, his figure and bearing are not inferior at all, but he is a little less of a soldier than Liu Guoxuan, but a little more gentle and elegant.

Zheng Kezang retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "I have seen General Liu, Kezang took the liberty to visit, and he didn't disturb the general's friends, right?" ”

Liu Guoxuan smiled: "How come? The prince is here, and I am here to shine. Shizi, take a seat quickly. After Zheng Kezang sat down, he introduced: "Let me introduce you to the prince, this is my best friend and the most trusted military advisor of the prince, Chen Yonghua." ”

Zheng Kezang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly got up and hugged his fists and said: "'If you don't know Chen Jinnan in your life, even if you are a hero, it is in vain', Kezang has seen the helmsman of Chen. Today, I am fortunate to see the true face of Mr. Chen, can Kezang also be regarded as a hero? Haha......"

"The prince is polite, it's all the love of friends in the rivers and lakes, and it can't be taken seriously." Chen Jinnan smiled elegantly and returned the salute with his fists.

Zheng Kezang sat down again and said: "Kezang always heard his father mention the two of them, saying that the two are his right-hand men, and they have helped him a lot on weekdays. Under the influence of his ears and eyes, Kezang has admired the two names for a long time, but he has long wanted to visit the two, but he has never had this honor. Unexpectedly, I was so interested today that I was fortunate enough to meet both of them all of a sudden. ”

"The prince doesn't have to be so polite." Chen Guoxuan nodded with a smile, and said meaningfully: "Seeing that the prince of the world has a sad face, it's not just as simple as being interested, right?" If there is anything that the prince needs to contribute, he may as well say it bluntly, but if he can do it in the future, he will never postpone it. Even if you can't do it next, isn't there still Yonghua? Yonghua is not an outsider, the prince can rest assured. ”

"Good! General Mingjian, so that the hidden treasure will no longer be hidden. Zheng Kezang sat down and said solemnly: "Kezang really has something to ask the general, if the helmsman Chen is also willing to help, this matter will be done!" In recent days, Kezang was distressed when he saw his father's defection for Shi Lang, so he dared to share his father's worries and took the liberty of asking the general for help. ”

The two glanced at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes, Chen Guoxuan asked curiously: "Then I don't know the world, what do you want to do next?" ”

Zheng Kezang said categorically: "Kezang wants to ask the general to come forward and persuade his father to take back his life and save the lives of Shi Lang's family." Now that the helmsman Chen is also here, he is brave and invites the helmsman Chen to come forward together. ”

"Oh?" Liu Guoxuan remained silent and asked, "I don't know when the prince met Shi Lang?" Why do you want to save Shi Lang's family? ”

Zheng Kezang knew that the meat drama was coming, so he became more and more calm, and told the words he had thought about early in the morning: "Kezang naturally has no friendship with Shi Lang, and he has never even seen him. Kezang just felt that although Shi Lang's crime of defection was unforgivable and the law was intolerable, it really shouldn't harm his family. No matter what, Shi Lang is also a veteran and hero of the two dynasties who followed his ancestor and father, so he hastily beheaded his family, wouldn't it chill other heroes? This will affect my father's reputation even more. ”

Liu Guoxuan looked directly into Zheng Kezang's eyes, paid attention to every expression on his face, and said in a deep voice: "However, according to what I have learned below, now the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty feel that the wind of defection cannot rise, and at this critical moment of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, there is no room for the slightest mistake. ”

"Does the general think so too?" Zheng Kezang asked with a smile,-for-tat: "How did Ke Kezang hear that the general also felt that Shi Lang's defection should not implicate his family, but he was only subject to the pressure of his grandmother, so he had to keep it silent." ”

"Really?" Liu Guoxuan was noncommittal, and replied indifferently: "Most of the rumors are wrong, and I think the next son has mistakenly believed the untruth." ”

Zheng Kezang was also silent, and said with a smile: "Kezang is indeed convinced of this, is it true that with the general's friendship with Shi Lang in the past, there is really no intention of rescue at all?" ”

Liu Guoxuan said: "The public is public, the private is private, and it is still possible to distinguish between public and private." ”

The atmosphere in the handsome tent was condensed, Zheng Kezang and Liu Guoxuan looked at each other, and no one wanted to let them. This made Chen Jinnan, who was watching from the sidelines, surprised by Zheng Kezang's courage. And Liu Guoxuan, as the party concerned, also secretly gave a thumbs up.

"Okay, Guoxuan, you don't have to pretend to be tempting anymore, we might as well listen to what other high opinions the prince has?" Seeing that the conversation between the two was at an impasse, Chen Jinnan interjected at the right time and said in a harmonious voice: "Shizi, just now, before you arrived, Guo Xuan and I were also discussing this matter, but this matter is very important, and the two of us dare not judge lightly, if you still have any ideas, it is better to say them together." ”

"Good!" Zheng Kezang also knew that just those remarks just now obviously couldn't impress the two, so the two of them took the risk of offending Mrs. Dong to intercede for Shi Lang's family, pondered for a moment, and said: "Kezang heard that Shi Lang is brave and good at fighting, has a good way of governing the army, and is especially good at naval warfare, and is a rare general. With such a talent, if we completely push it to the Qing court, it will really be the biggest loss for our dynasty. ”

Chen Jinnan was slightly stunned, didn't react for a while, and asked, "What does the prince mean?" Shi Lang's defection is a fact. ”

Zheng Kezang said confidently: "That's different, I think Shi Lang's defection was just a moment of anger, and even to a certain extent, he was forced to be helpless, and he had to surrender when he was desperate." And if we still do everything to the end of the matter, and behead Shi Lang's family, it will inevitably make him hate our dynasty very much, and try to use the power of the Qing court to take revenge, plus Shi Lang is extremely familiar with my Taiwan, once he leads the Qing army to attack one day, the consequences are unimaginable. ”

When the two heard this, their expressions were shocked, and they looked at each other in shock, obviously shocked by Zheng Kezang's remarks.

Looking at the two of them, Zheng Kezang was secretly refreshed, and he didn't mind adding another fire, and then said: "However, as long as we don't do things to the end, there is still room for Shi Lang's defection." I believe that Shi Lang still has feelings for my dynasty, as long as we can treat his family well, Shi Lang will remember the good of my dynasty. Even if Shi Lang is really a wolf-hearted man, he must always take care of his family, as long as we have a good card of his family in our hands, Shi Lang will not dare to easily provoke a war. Speaking of naval warfare, apart from him Shi Lang, I really don't believe that there are any other naval warfare talents in the Qing court who can threaten our dynasty. Seeing that the two had followed his words, Zheng Kezang paused, and said in a fierce voice: "Besides, as long as we treat Shi Lang's family well, the Qing court will not easily trust him." If it doesn't work out, the Qing court will still have doubts about his defection, and take the initiative to relieve the troubles for our dynasty once and for all. Looking at the two of them who were silently contemplative, Zheng Kezang finally concluded: "Therefore, in my opinion, keeping Shi Lang's family, no matter from which aspect, will do more benefits than disadvantages to my dynasty!"

Inside the handsome tent, there was silence, and Zheng Kezang looked at the two nervously. Now, he has said everything he can think of, if this can't impress the two of them, Zheng Kezang really has no good way.

"Hahaha......" I don't know how long it took, Liu Guoxuan laughed and broke the solemn atmosphere, looked at Zheng Kezang's eyes, they were full of approval, and said: "Okay! Well thought out, and almost nothing is missing. What's even more rare is that it should be ruthless, and there is no woman's kindness, which is really good. ”

"Yes, Guoxuan, I didn't expect that our brothers didn't think far-reaching before the son, they are really heroes and teenagers, and there is a successor to the queen of Yanping County." Chen Jinnan also praised Zheng Kezang.

"Huh......" Zheng Kezang breathed a long sigh of relief, knowing that his words just now were not in vain. Seeing that the big thing had been accomplished, Zheng Kezang was even more impatient, striking while the iron was hot, and said: "General Liu, Chief Helmsman Chen, since the two of you also agree with Kezang's shallow opinion, then without further ado, please go to meet your father and tell your father to complain bitterly, so that his father can take back his life." ”

Liu Guoxuan said with a smile: "Shizi, you are not a shallow opinion, it is simply deafening, much farther than Yonghua and I thought." Having said that, for some reason, I didn't want to meet Zheng Jing in person.

Zheng Kezang let out a "chuckle" in his heart, seeing that things were not as simple as he thought, and I am afraid that there are still some omissions. I thought about it and thought about it, but I couldn't think of what went wrong, and I couldn't help but look at the two of them in surprise.

Chen Jinnan explained with a smile: "Shizi, according to what you just said, this is a great achievement. How? Do you think Guo Xuan and I are the kind of villains who are greedy for merit? As he spoke, he looked at Zheng Kezang with a smile.

"This ......" Zheng Kezang thought thoughtfully, but he couldn't be sure.

Liu Guoxuan didn't want to play dumb riddles like this anymore, and said directly: "What Yonghua and I mean is that since this matter is carefully considered by the prince, it is natural that the prince will present it to the prince in person, and Yonghua and I will fully support the prince." ”

The two looked at Zheng Kezang at the same time, and their eyes didn't blink. In the depths of the eyes of the two, there is no implicit expectation.

"I see...... Zheng Kezang suddenly realized, and suddenly understood, knowing that this was the last test for him by the two. I also know that once I can pass the test of the two this time, I will be further recognized by the two and lay a solid foundation for the support of the two in the future. And the two of them tested Zheng Kezang like this to see if he had the responsibility and the open-mindedness, instead of just hiding behind his back and not daring to come out.

If you say, do Liu Guoxuan and Chen Jinnan have any intention of not wanting to openly offend Mrs. Dong? In Zheng's view, this is indeed unlikely. You must know that the two of them were Zheng Jing's cronies, and they must have offended Mrs. Dong's interest group before they came, so Mrs. Dong had already registered there, so why not add one more. Moreover, even if he finally comes forward in this matter, it is inseparable from the support of the two, which is really not much different from the two of them coming forward directly.

Zheng Kezang also knows that the disadvantages of wanting to do this matter are also obvious, you must know that Mrs. Dong has been staring at this matter, and whoever takes the lead and openly prevents this matter at the moment will definitely be hated by her. Being hated by this old lady is really not a fun thing, the old lady didn't want to see him in the first place, and with this incident, I'm afraid it will really be regarded as a grandson without him.

Everything is good, and naturally there are disadvantages!

As soon as Zheng Kezang figured out the intentions of the two, he had already made a decision. He knew that it was time for him to make a statement, and at this time, he must not show the slightest hesitation, otherwise he would definitely deduct the impression in the minds of the two, and he would really be busy just now. Immediately, Zhengse said: "It's Kezang's thoughtlessness, please don't blame the two of you." At the beginning, Kezang just felt that he was young and romantic, for fear that his father would not adopt it and delay the major affairs of the family and country, so he had the idea of asking the two to come forward. Now, since the two of them are willing to carry Kezang, Kezang can't ask for it, so it is a good choice, and please take care of the two of them. ”

"It's decisive, good!" Liu Guoxuan's eyes lit up, and he was amazed.

Chen Jinnan also agreed: "Since the prince has made a decision, Guoxuan and I naturally fully support it."

At this point, Zheng Kezang completely put his heart to the ground, relaxed, and invited the two to Yanping County Mansion with a smile.
