Chapter 60 Zheng Yanqing, I'm back

Xingyang, Great Cold.

Zheng Yuanshou raised his whip and urged his horse to gallop on the official road.

The mount had tried his best, but Zheng Yuanshou still felt dissatisfied. He kept hitting the horse's buttocks with a horse whip, urging the horse to speed up.

Speaking of which, Zheng Yuanshou's horse is considered noble in blood and belongs to a good horse in the BMW. The origin of this horse is not simple. His ancestors were once a Turkic Khan mount, but later presented to Chang'an to become the imperial horse in Feihuang Shangjian. Yang Jian usurped Zhou and Zheng Yi made contributions to assist him, so he was rewarded by Yang Jian to Zheng Yi. Zheng Yuanshou's mount is the descendant of the imperial horse in Feihuang Shangjian, and his feet are very strong.

Behind Zheng Yuanshou, more than a hundred Zheng Mansion entourages were desperately chasing them.

But there is no other way, the more you chase, the farther you get. Fortunately, there is Xingyang City ahead, so there is no need to worry about an accident in Zheng Yuanshou.

As soon as the city gate was opened, Zheng Yuanshou rushed into Xingyang like a wind.

The guard looked at Zheng Yuanshou's back in surprise and asked in confusion: "Is he just passed by? Is General Zheng?"

The elderly Men Bo broke away from his old eyes and nodded, "It seems that something happened, otherwise General Zheng would not have been in such a hurry.

These two days are really strange. I heard Lao Wang at the post station say yesterday that in one day, more than ten waves of people stopped and changed horses from the post station, and they were in a hurry. I don’t know what happened, but I hope it’s not that we will fight again, otherwise we will suffer again!”

The soldiers were silent.

The battle in Liaodong was originally thought to be a victory in a devastating way, but ended in a disastrous defeat.

Hundreds of thousands of people died in Liaodong, and countless officials and generals were implicated... I heard that the emperor was not willing to give up and had to continue fighting again. So many people could not conquer Goguryeo. Can we really defeat him? Don’t let it be another miserable defeat of losing troops and losing generals.

"Okay, don't be dazed, get up quickly.

General Zheng is here, and his entourage must be coming soon. Let’s cheer up and don’t let General Zheng’s entourage laugh at him in the end.”

When the soldiers heard this, they answered in unison.

Fortunately, it was early in the morning, and there were not many pedestrians on the road. Zheng Yuanshou rode his horse and came to the gate of the Sutra Hall without any obstacles.

As soon as the door cleared the gate, he saw Zheng Yuanshou snatching his horse and quickly came forward.

"Second Master, are you back?"

There was surprise in his tone, but Zheng Yuanshou ignored him.

He jumped off the war horse, threw the reins in his hand to the door, and rushed to the doorstep with great strides.

He walked through the chassis in the front hall and ignored others along the way. He hurried to his residence and happened to see his third brother Zheng Yuancong dressed neatly and preparing to go out with his family.

"Big brother?"

Zheng Yuancong was stunned and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Zheng Yuanshou's face was gloomy, but he still forced a smile to greet Zheng Yuancong, "Second brother, don't go out, go in with me."

"What happened?"

Zheng Yuancong immediately realized that something big happened. Otherwise, the elder brother, who had always been a hero, would definitely not have such an expression. He wanted to ask in detail, but seeing Zheng Yuanshou's appearance, he swallowed it back when he saw what Zheng Yuanshou looked like. He handed the whip back to the housekeeper, "Go and tell Mr. Cui, just say that I have something to do today and can't go to Donglin Lake to enjoy the snow with him. Please forgive him."

After saying that, Zheng Yuancong followed Zheng Yuanshou into the house.

"Brother, what happened? Why did you come back silently?"

"If I don't come back, something big will happen...Where is Zheng Xing? Where is that little bastard now?"

Zheng Yuanshou asked sternly, the manager in front of the door was stunned and hesitated for a moment, "I guess I haven't gotten up yet when the eldest son and the young masters were drinking yesterday."

"Catch him over to me... If you dare to resist, break his leg."

Zheng Yuancong's heart skipped a beat, "Brother, could it be that Partridge caused trouble outside?"

Zheng Yuanshou snorted, picked up the bronze lord in front of him, drank the wine and threw it heavily on the long table without saying a word. Anyone who is familiar with him knows that the more Zheng Yuanshou doesn't speak, the more he means he is furious. Zheng Yuancong didn't dare to ask any more, and quickly turned his eyes and signaled to the retainers at the door to inform the eldest lady. I hope that Zheng Xing would not cause too much trouble.

Zheng Xing's drunkenness was not over yet, and he was pulled out of the warm and fragrant nephropathy.

Before he even figured out what happened, he was taken to the central hall...

"Do you want to die? How dare you treat me like this!"

"I think it's not that they want to die, it's that you want to die..."

Zheng Yuanshou's gloomy words made Zheng Xing realize that his father was actually sitting in the hall. He was stunned and hurriedly stepped forward to pay homage.

"Father, when did you come back?"

"If I don't come back, I'm afraid your head will land!"

Zheng Yuancong shouted softly and hurried forward, "Brother, if Partridge does something wrong, you will beat him and scold him if he should. Don't be angry.

Partridge, what good things have you done recently? It made your father so angry, and he still honestly admits it and admits his mistake to your father?"

Partridge is Zheng Xing's nickname.

When he returned from Pyongyang, Zheng Xing was proud of his youth.

Although Lai Hu'er failed in the battle, Zheng Xing was at least able to kill the enemy. The most important thing is that he brought back thousands of people in the Nanshui Camp and made outstanding achievements. Although Lai Hu'er was arrested and imprisoned, he could be rewarded for his merits. Zheng Xing was suddenly named Qianniu Preparation by Yang Guang.

This is a long-term position. Zheng Xing was so proud of this time.

He was preparing to take up a job in Luoyang in the beginning of the next year. Yesterday, he drank with some brothers and children from Xingyang and other families and got drunk. He heard Zheng Yuanshou's inquiry, Zheng Xing was a little confused. He really couldn't remember what he had done wrong.

"Father, my child hasn't done anything recently?"

"What did you not do?" Zheng Yuanshou laughed in anger, "Young Master Zheng, your courage is really great... What did you not do? The embarrassing things you did have now been exposed. Unexpectedly, my Zheng family has passed down from generation to generation and you are such a bastard."

"Brother..."

"Shut up."

Zheng Yuancong wanted to persuade him again, but was scolded by Zheng Yuanshou and was so scared that he closed his mouth.

At this time, Zheng Xing's biological mother, Mrs. Lu, also rushed over to hear the news. Seeing her son wearing a single dress, kneeling in the middle hall, trembling, she couldn't help but feel ache. She hurriedly ran up, untied the cloak on her body, and put it on Zheng Xing's body, "Master, what are you doing?"

Partridge is going to work in Luoyang in the beginning of spring. It would be fine if you don’t praise him once you come back, but why are you angry at him?"

"You, stop me."

Zheng Yuanshou looked a little ferocious, "You really taught a good son. Not only did you frame others and miss the opportunity to fight, but you also replaced others' military merits... Take the job? I think he doesn't have to go to Luoyang to take office. In a few days, the court will come to the court and take his life."

"Master, what are you talking nonsense?"

Mrs. Lu was startled and looked at Zheng Yuanshou in surprise.

Zheng Xing's face turned pale in an instant, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Zheng Yuancong asked, "Brother, what's going on?"

He didn't dare to plead for Zheng Xing anymore, because what Zheng Yuanshou said was the serious crime of beheading the head and scouting the house.

"You ask him."

Mrs. Lu didn't dare to protect her and grabbed Zheng Xing's arm, "Peal, what disaster did you do, please explain it clearly quickly."

"I, I..." Zheng Xing gritted his teeth, "Dad, I don't know what you said."

"Don't you know?" Zheng Yuanshou laughed angrily, "Okay, then when His Majesty sends Qianniuwei to take you, you will understand."

"Brother, what's going on? You'll tell me clearly."

After Zheng Yuancong asked repeatedly, Zheng Yuanshou took out a letter from his arms and threw it to Zheng Yuancong. "If it weren't for Shiying's letter, I would have been almost hidden in the hub. Zheng Xing, do you think these good things you did would not be exposed? Then let me tell you that ten days ago, Zheng Yanqing led his troops from Goguryeo to cross the Yalu River, and fought fiercely with the Goguryeo people on the banks of Liangshui River for a whole day, and captured the Goguryeo County Prince and Gao Jianwu alive."

Shiying is the name of Xue Shixiong, the left-behind Zhuo County.

"Ah!" Zheng Yuancong was shocked.

"Hehe, not only is he back... There are also Xie Ke, a son of the Yangxia Xie family, Hongyi, the son of Renji's brother, Mai Zizhong, the eldest grandson of Mr. Chengjing, Feng Zhidai, the son of Feng Ann, the eldest general of the Left Wuwei Guard, and the thirteen children of the thirteen families who were stranded in Goguryeo due to the Battle of Sashui, a total of forty-seven people, all of whom were rescued by Zheng Yanqing and returned safely... and are now being escorted back to Beijing."

Zheng Xing's head buzzed and suddenly turned blank.

Zheng Yuancong also turned ugly, looked at Zheng Xing in a daze, and sighed for a long time.

Only Mrs. Lu still didn't understand what was going on, so she turned her head and asked, "Peal, didn't you say that Zheng Yanqing surrendered to the enemy in Pyongyang?

Why is he still brave enough to come back?”

Zheng Yuanshou said gloomyly: "Yes, I also want to know, Zheng Qianniu and Zheng Yanqing are back?"

Zheng Yanqing is still alive, Zheng Yanqing is still alive... He is back!

Zheng Xing's head was buzzing, and he didn't know how to answer. He originally thought that Zheng Yanqing was in danger and would have to die for a lifetime and would be difficult to return. Since he couldn't come back, he naturally didn't mind taking the blame. Zheng Xing had no good feelings for Zheng Yanqing himself, so after he returned, he reported to come to protect himself, saying that Zheng Yanqing had surrendered to Goguryeo with his people. He even took the Nanshui fire on himself.

Zhou Fa still didn't believe it very much, but Lai Hu'er believed it to be true.

Before the war ended, the Zheng family held a meeting of senior clans, abolished the identity of senior clans, and deprived Zheng Shi'an of his land in Gong County.

After Yang Guang returned to Luoyang, he learned about this and became even more angry and wanted to kill Zheng Shi'an's whole family.

Fortunately, Pei Shiju came forward to plead with him, and Yu Wenshi and persuaded him. Later, Empress Xiao stood up and spoke for Zheng Yanqing.

She said: "Your Majesty is too reckless to listen to only one-sided words. I don't know who Zheng Yanqing is. But I know how strong a person who can be a 'sage and lord' should be. He ignores his bright future and goes to surrender to the Goguryeo people? It's ridiculous... I am willing to protect Zheng Yanqing, and he is definitely not the kind of shameless person who surrenders."

Yang Guang then gave up, but he dismissed Zheng Yanqingyun's title of cavalry lieutenant.

After that, Pei Shuying and Pei Cuiyun rushed to Gong County and saved a place for Zheng Shi'an. However, Zheng Shi'an is now in a mess. If Pei Shuying had not come forward and Guancheng County Magistrate Fang Qiao and Fang Xuanling and Xu Shiji were secretly taking care of each other, they would have been afraid that they would not even have a residence.

Now, Zheng Yanqing is back!

Not only did he come back, he also came back with his extraordinary achievements in capturing Gao Jianwu, the Prince of Goguryeo...

Yang Guang conquered Liaodong, and lost his troops and generals. He only won half of Liaodong, which was a loss of face. Zheng Yanqing's life and captured Gao Jianwu undoubtedly found a very big fig leaf for Yang Guang. With this merit, Zheng Yanqing will surely make a fortune in the future.
