Chapter 315: The Yellow Sparrow is behind
As soon as Chen Yu's words fell, a black shadow appeared not far from the two, carrying a pitch-black wooden box in his hand.
"Uncle, my subordinates are ordered by Commander Qiu to come and pay the order to Uncle." The man saluted Zhang Zheng from a distance, and did not approach Zhang Zheng.
After saying a word, he left the wooden box in its place and disappeared. Chen Yu walked over and opened the wooden box, which was a human head that had been processed to life.
Then he opened a portrait, compared it carefully, and replied: "Uncle, this should be Zheng Tong's head." ”
"Oh!" Zhang Zheng was unmoved, and continued to throw a rod into the water, and then said lightly: "It's just a stand-in, throw it into the Wei River to feed the fish." ”
"Yes!" Chen Yu didn't know why Zhang Zheng was so sure that this head was not Zheng Tong's. But since Zhang Zheng said it was fake, it must be fake.
Chen Yu never doubted Zhang Zheng's judgment. Zhang Zheng and Chen Yu were still waiting quietly by the Wei River.
Because Zhang Zheng believes that Qiu Shisan will definitely give himself an explanation. This is the middle of the night.
Chen Yu was about to fall asleep.
"Bang!" Suddenly, something smashed in front of Chen Yu, and immediately scared Chen Yu's sleepiness away.
Chen Yu glanced at the person who came, and scolded unhappily: "Qiu Bi, you are going to die." ”
"Hey, hey, uncle, alive." Qiu Shisanyin laughed for a while and said something to Zhang Zheng. Then he kicked the figure in front of Chen Yu and said, "Wake up!" Zhang Zheng took the fishing rod, jumped off the fishing position made of gravel, and instructed the two: "Take it back to Cuiwei Mountain." As he spoke, he took the lead and walked towards his villa on Cuiwei Mountain.
Zhang Zheng's villa in Cuiwei Mountain is different from other gentlemen's villas. Zhang Zheng's villa has a basement more than ten meters deep, while other gentlemen's villas do not have it.
At this moment, in the basement under Zhang Zheng's villa. Giant butter candles illuminate the darkness of the underground room as if it were day.
Zhang Zheng sat on a stool with a makeshift wooden frame in front of him. At this time, Zheng Tong, whose limbs were fixed on the wooden frame, had already woken up.
Chen Yu and Qiu Shisan were fiddling with all kinds of torture instruments.
"Zheng Tong! I said a long time ago that I would take off your head in honor of my teacher. Now you can say your last words. Zhang Zheng looked at Zheng Tong with a calm face, but the words that came out of his mouth made Zheng Tong's heart sink to the bottom.
Zheng Tong worked hard to maintain the demeanor of the children of the family, even if he was tied to a wooden frame, he was unwilling to lower his arrogant head.
Looking at Zhang Zheng with a flat gaze, he asked, "I obviously did it seamlessly, and even Cui Li was deceived by me, how do you know that he is my stand-in?" ”
"I asked you to say your last words, not to ask questions. But after catching you, I'm in a much better mood, so it doesn't hurt to answer for you. I've always liked to treat others with myself, the so-called praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches are behind, I like to bring myself into the role, and then constantly fill the loopholes. If I were you, I wouldn't have chosen to risk it myself, even if this person was my enemy of life and death...... So ......" Zhang Zheng looked at Zheng Tong, with a hint of mockery on his face.
After listening to Zhang Zheng's explanation, Zheng Tong showed a look of despair in his eyes, and asked again: "So, you seem to be trading with Cui Li, but you are actually treating him as a chess piece, right?" Zhang Zheng spread his hands: "It's not about chess pieces, it's just using each other, Cui Li knows that he can't kill you by himself, but you definitely won't choose to let him go." It just so happens that I also need your life to take a bad breath, so I just laid out a game, and you stupidly got in, blame me. Zheng Tong was silent for a moment, and continued to ask: "Gunpowder, you gave it to Cui Li?" ”
"No, I don't have that much authority, in fact, although I made the gunpowder, but after handing over the secret recipe to Your Majesty, except for the Lingnan time, I have never made gunpowder privately." Zhang Zheng shook his head and vetoed Zheng Tong's speculation.
Gunpowder was so powerful that anyone could feel the danger. Zhang Zheng is self-aware, and he may not say anything if he uses Li Er when he encounters a life-and-death crisis.
But once you dare to use it casually, or even give it to others, you will find your own death. Even when he went to bomb the Zheng family's ancestral house, Zhang Zheng chose to enter the firearms bureau and snatch some gunpowder instead of making it himself.
Gunpowder has become Li Er's forbidden area, and Zhang Zheng has always grasped the degree well. After Zhang Zheng finished speaking, his face showed impatience, and he said to Zheng Tong: "Okay, it's time for you to explain your last words." Zheng Tong didn't ask anything, and a touch of nostalgia suddenly appeared on his face.
Then he said to Zhang Zheng: "If the Zheng family is defeated one day, please ask Zhang Xianbo to try to rescue my eldest brother's only child, oh, it is the child who came forward to negotiate with you last time, his name is Zheng Sui." ”
"Huh?" Zhang Zheng never thought that Zheng Tong's last words would be for him to rescue Zheng Sui, and his eyes suddenly became strange when he looked at Zheng Tong.
Could it be that this Zheng Sui is actually Zheng Tong's illegitimate son? Zhang Zheng sneered lightly: "Tsk, your circle is really messy." Seeing Zhang Zheng's expression change, Zheng Tong immediately reacted to Zhang Zheng's thoughts.
couldn't help but be a little annoyed: "It's not what you think." ”
"What kind of thing is that, you can't even save your own son, it's hard not to think about it." Zhang Zheng's tone was full of ridicule, and he investigated very clearly, Zheng Tong had three sons.
Zheng Tong explained: "The Zheng bloodline needs to continue smoothly, and no one is more suitable than Zheng Sui, because he will not retaliate against you. ”
"Oh, what about the conditions?" Zhang Zheng suddenly understood, and a trace of admiration for Zheng Tong suddenly rose in his heart. This is a pure person, a person who can leave everything behind for the sake of the family.
Until now, what he was thinking about was not his own fate, but the survival of his family. Zheng Tong's request is actually not difficult to understand at all, it is just a means used by the family.
They never put their eggs in one basket. During the Three Kingdoms period, there was a family with the compound surname Zhuge .
The three brothers came out of Wei, Shu and Wu, and they were enemies of each other. The advantage of this is that no matter which side wins, the Zhuge family can prosper for a long time.
It's just that what Zhang Zheng didn't expect was that now that the family has not yet fallen, Zheng Tong has already thought so far.
Since the Zheng family is already like this, what about the Cui family? Zhang Zheng thought of Cui Li and the Cui Jin brothers. It seems that Cui Li's rebellion may not be as simple as he said.
Zhang Zheng suddenly smiled: "Interesting." ”
