The pedals on the big ship are lowered. (.la no pop-up ads)
Sister Li Yue and Tie Niu's daughter-in-law helped Uncle Zheng to get on the opposite boat trembling slightly, and as soon as they got into the cabin, Mrs. Zheng and Tie Niu's daughter-in-law pounced on the coffin placed on the bow of the boat, and cried.
"Auntie, third brother and sister (third sister-in-law), we didn't take good care of the uncle and the third brother (third brother), please punish, Zheng Tieli, Zheng Tiehan, Zheng Gui, Zheng Gui The four porphyms knelt down, their eyes were red.
"Alas, I don't blame you, I don't blame you, take me to see your uncle." Mrs. Zheng came back to her senses, pulled a few brothers to stand up, her voice choked, and she couldn't speak.
"Yes." The four brothers responded, and hurriedly led everyone into the middle warehouse, as soon as they entered the middle warehouse, they saw Zheng Da lying lifeless on a soft couch, his face was a real dead man's color, not the usual rigid dead face, and his breath was very weak at this time.
On the side, Lang Zhong was using ginseng to help him hang his last breath, and at this time, when Lang Zhong saw the Zheng family coming in, he said anxiously: "Which is the lady of the big boss, come and meet, the big boss will not be able to stand it." He shook his head and sighed. But there is also a sigh in my heart, if it were ordinary people, I would have died a long time ago, this Zheng Da master has so strong perseverance, and in one breath, he has fought until now.
"The ...... of the house" Mrs. Zheng was already teary-eyed at this time, sobbing and screaming, walked quickly to the couch, and held the hand of the master Zheng tightly.
Xu was because he heard the voice of Mrs. Zheng, who was lying on the soft couch, his hand shook slightly, and his eyelids trembled a few times before he raised it, and then tried his best to stare at the person in front of him with his paralyzed eyes.
"Iron bull ...... You're coming......" Zheng Da's voice was almost inaudible.
"I'm here, I'm here, don't talk, take a good rest." Mrs. Zheng choked up.
"I can't rest at this time, I have to wait until you come, and then rest, I won't be able to get up, I'll just breathe a sigh......" Zheng Dadao.
"Good. Well, you can say what you have. (.la no pop-up ads)" Mrs. Zheng said, tears flowing.
"I've never had so many words in my heart as I do now, but I really don't have time to say it, anyway, you and I have been talking to me all these years. I have suffered a lot of grievances, I have suffered you, I am an executioner, I am blessed to be able to marry you as a lady...... I'm just sorry. I didn't take good care of the Iron Bull and let him leave early, and that's all my fault. I'm sorry...... Iron Bull, damn it, I'm sorry......" Zheng Da said, tilting his head, and the breath became weaker.
"Owned, owned...... Don't talk about it...... "Mrs. Zheng cried suppressedly, and the whole person was about to collapse.
Lang Zhong on the side hurriedly fed the ginseng water again.
After a while, Zheng Dacai perked up again, and his eyes swept around. Seeing a lot of people, but their faces were all blurred, he asked anxiously, "Are Rokuro and Rokuro's daughter-in-law here?" ”
"It's coming. Brother-in-law. Hearing Zheng Da's faint voice, Sister Li Yue and Zheng Dian hurriedly stepped forward. Sit cross-legged in front of the couch.
"Good, good. It's good to come, Liulang, Liulang's daughter-in-law, I handed over your eldest aunt and third sister-in-law to you, your third sister-in-law is still young, and she really has a good family, so let her remarry, our Zheng family doesn't want to be a woman......"
"Well, well, we know, we won't pay the uncle." Zheng Dian and Sister Li Yue also said with red eyes.
"Also, the Tongzhou Cao Gang must be in the hands of the Zheng family, the road to officialdom is difficult, without the relationship of the Cao Gang to rely on, you are alone in the officialdom, and you can't go down that road...... Remember, as long as you walk steadily, the Zheng family will not fall, master, the old lady and I are watching from the sky. Zheng Da said, his breath was even weaker, and his whole head was tilted to the side, and anyone could see that his last breath was dissipating.
"The master, the family, hold on, you haven't seen Yincui yet, she has a big belly now, and she's about to give birth, ah, hold on, our family still has roots...... I'll fetch her, you wait. Mrs. Zheng panicked, hugged Zheng Da's head tightly, and didn't care about any grievances, just thinking about something that could hold Zheng Da's life.
"There's no need, she's there, it's going to rain and the mother wants to get married, let her go, as for my current fate, I was prepared when I was the executioner, the killing was too heavy, so, don't worry about it, Cao Shangren will die, where he died, I'm leaving, you live a good life......" Zheng Da's breath was very weak, and finally dissipated in the air, and after the first meal, he lost his breath.
"Da Lang ......"
"Father-in-law......
"Uncle ......"
"The ...... of the Big Boss"
Everyone shouted loudly, and Na Langzhong hurriedly stepped forward to rescue, but in the end he shook his head, there was really nothing he could do, and it was a miracle that he could drag it out until now: "The big boss is gone, prepare for the future!" ”
"The ...... of the house You're too ruthless, you're too ruthless......" Mrs. Zheng cried frantically, and while being persuaded, she finally calmed down.
"Zheng Da is on the road......" At this time, Zheng Tu walked to the bow of the boat outside with red eyes, and yelled at the people on the boat around him. Immediately, everyone on the boat should get along: "Zheng Da is on the road......"
After that, every ship heard the sound of a double cannon: "Boom...... "At the same time, a piece ......of white linen was hung from each bow. And all the Cao Gang disciples got down on one knee.
The people on the boat around were in an uproar, there was only one possibility for this situation, and Zheng Da did not survive in the end and left. Immediately, except for foreign merchant ships, all local ships were hung with white linen on their bows. It was a ship from other places, seeing this grand scene, or perhaps in order to form a good fate, and finally hung white linen on the bow of the ship.
There was a sense of pathos over the canal.
At this time, Mrs. Zheng calmed down, and opened the package on her hand and liver, which was the shroud prepared two days ago, on the boat, and gathered for Zheng Da with her own hands, the coffin had already been prepared, and it was a mahogany coffin that had been seven times.
It is fate for the Cao Shangren to die in Cao, and it is also a solemn ritual to be buried in the coffin on the ship.
Washing, changing clothes, combing hair, etc., a series of routines were done, and then the Zheng brothers carried Zheng Da's body, all facing the boiling water, and put it in the coffin.
Before that, the two boats merged into one and sailed to the Xicang wharf.
The coffin was carried back to the Zheng family's house, and it was necessary to stop at home for 7749 days before being buried.
And the altars of various places, as well as the Cao Gang Brotherhood, came to mourn during this time.
"Boss, Ah Niu, I'll take you home......" On the dock, Mrs. Zheng's voice was surprisingly calm.
"......" a group of men shouted loudly, walking in the front is Zheng Da's coffin, twelve people carried, one step at a time, slowly walked across the partition, walked on the dock, followed by Zheng Tieniu's coffin, eight people carried.
Sister Li Yue and Tie Niu's daughter-in-law helped Mrs. Zheng to walk in front, and the brothers of the Zheng family helped the coffin forward.
The whole team, except for the footsteps of the coffin bearer, there was not the slightest sound, and on the boat behind them, the double cannon rang out non-stop. Along the way, from time to time, people joined the team to send Zheng Da's family home.
"I didn't see that Zheng Da had earned such prestige in just a few years in Tongzhou." In a restaurant by the dock, the original second prince, the current Emperor Yongning, sat in a sitting room by the window on the second floor with a straight face, looking at this scene on the dock, and whispered, beside him, Sangui was waiting.
The Huai'an civil uprising directly affected the storage of grain, and the grain in Beijing and Tong was related to the stability of the capital and the border army. It just so happened that he saw this scene.
"Speaking of Zheng Da in Cao in the past few years is quite accomplished, when Tongzhou a plate of loose sand, although there is Tie Jiulang, but back then, Tie Jiulang was too young, not enough to convince the public, is Zheng Da took over the Tongzhou Gang, Tongzhou Cao Gang became the head of several altars in the north, in private, all the altars are to Zheng Jiagang Ma is the head, Zheng Da is ruthless enough, and secondly, he is quite righteous to his brothers, his temperament is the most suitable for mixing rivers and lakes. In addition, Zheng Liulang's county master has done quite steadily this year, especially the Tonghui River project and the refugee shelter this time, which has not left a trace of trouble, which is very rare, so in the past few years, the Zheng family's reputation in Tongzhou is very good. "Sangui said.
"Well, Zheng Liulang, this kid has been trained over the years, and he is getting more and more secure." Emperor Yongning said with a light smile.
"It's just that now that Zheng Da is gone, I'm afraid the Tongzhou Gang will be chaotic again." Sangui said with some regrets.
"Doesn't their Zheng family still have some gang brothers? Why, you can't hold an altar entrance? Emperor Yongning wrinkled his eyebrows and said with a displeased face.
"The bad thing is that he has too many brothers in the Zheng family, but this time Zheng Sanlang and Zheng Da went together, there is no legal heir to the Zheng family's big house, and the Zheng family's second room, Zheng Tieli Zheng Tiehan, these two are the third generation of the Zheng family's Dalang and Erlang, although the time with Zheng Da is relatively short, but the two are quite brave, and they are very popular among the brothers in the gang, and Zheng Gui Zheng Gui, Zheng Shilang and Qilang, belong to the Zheng family four rooms, among which Zheng Gui is the first to follow Zheng Da, quite scheming, and his seventh brother Zheng Hui is even more supportive of him, and he has some support in the gangOn weekdays, these brothers in the second and fourth rooms often have no signs, but with Zheng Da pressing, they can't make any waves, but now that Zheng Da is gone, there is no suitable heir in the Zheng family's big house, and the brothers in the second and fourth rooms of the Zheng family are not convinced by each other. And the Zheng family's chaos is afraid that others will take advantage of it...... Do I want to ......" Sangui analyzed in a low voice, and now he knows what he is doing secretly.
Then he asked respectfully to see if he wanted to intervene.
"Don't meddle in this matter yet, just wait and see what happens." Emperor Yongning said coldly. As far as he is concerned, the most important thing now is that this year's grain must be in place on time, and those that really cannot be reversed must also be adjusted to ensure that they must be in place next spring. Otherwise, the capital and the border army will be in chaos, thinking about it, Emperor Yongning's thick brows furrowed into a peak, and his thin lips were tightly pursed, he had already checked Jingcang and Tongcang before, and the situation in the warehouse was not optimistic.
This food instability is the instability of people's hearts.
