Chapter 62: Good people are deceived by others(1/2)
Chapter 62: Being good is bullied
Zheng Hongyi was in a dilemma and didn't know how to explain this to Zheng Yanqing.
In fact, when he first heard the saying "Zheng Yanqing surrendered to the enemy", he was furious. Just imagine, Zheng Yanqing surrendered to the enemy, so did he, the person who followed Zheng Yanqing from beginning to end, also "subterminated to the enemy"? Over the past half a year, he has been through many tragic battles and has faced countless difficulties and obstacles. After fighting hard, he finally heard the news that he had surrendered to the enemy...
Not to mention that older people will be angry about it, let alone how can a young and energetic person like Zheng Hongyi bear this tone?
However, after experiencing so many things in Goguryeo, Zheng Hongyi was no longer the fledgling boy. So he quickly calmed down and asked Pei Xingyan and Xue Wanche carefully. After this inquiry, Zheng Hongyi was stunned... It turned out that the saying of "submitting to the enemy" actually came from his own people. Zheng Xing not only took Zheng Yanqing's credit for himself, but also falsely accused Zheng Yanqing of "submitting to the enemy". Zheng Hongyi was angry, but he also knew that if this matter was investigated, it would be a huge impact for the Zheng family.
If you don’t do it well, this ancient family that has been passed down for hundreds of years may be in a slump.
But this matter cannot be concealed from Zheng Yanqing.
Because Zheng Yanqing will know this sooner or later, the most important thing is that Zheng Hongyi knows Zheng Yanqing's feelings for Zheng Shi'an. It would be fine if you target Zheng Yanqing, but you also implicate Zheng Shi'an. If Zheng Yanqing knew the truth, wouldn't he be angry?
Zheng Hongyi knew Zheng Yanqing's methods very well.
If he acted ruthlessly, hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo people would be almost played with by him, and his methods would be extremely cruel.
Zheng Yanqing can make up his mind to let a delicate little beauty die.
He could face the white-haired old mother of Yizhi Wende and cut off the white head without hesitation. From south to north, from east to west, Zheng Yanqing was the famous one who came out of his battle. Now the Goguryeo people heard that his name had the effect of Ye'er cried. Can the Zheng family withstand his troubles?
Zheng Hongyi was still thinking about how to tell this matter in a way that would not anger Zheng Yanqing the least.
But before he could come up with a proper solution, Su Lie told Zheng Yanqing.
"this……"
Facing Zheng Yanqing's burning gaze, Zheng Hongyi couldn't help but be frightened. He glared at Su Lie fiercely, then forced a smile, and explained the whole story to Zheng Yanqing.
"Yanqing, don't get angry.
General Xue said, there are many people pleading for you. Aunt Shuying also took the Pei family's ministers to Gong County to take charge. Grandpa Shi'an was at most frightened and would never be a big deal. After I go back, I must ask my father to come forward to make decisions for you..."
Zheng Yanqing's expression was as usual and his expression was very calm.
No one, including Huang Wenqing, could see what Zheng Yanqing thoughts in his heart.
"This is my business, why do you need Uncle Zheng to come forward?"
He suddenly spoke, interrupted Zheng Hongyi's words, and said calmly: "Hongyi, don't worry about this matter anymore, I have my own opinions."
The more calm Zheng Yanqing was, the more frightened Zheng Hongyi became.
The atmosphere in the room became very depressing. Even Su Lie, who had always been very brave, couldn't help swallowing and shut his mouth at this moment.
Is this the demeanor of Mr. Go?
The lights were flashing, and from Su Lie's perspective, only half of Zheng Yanqing's face could be seen.
The thin cheeks were as sharp as a knife and an axe. A faint, undetectable anger came out from him, only causing Su Lie to throbbing.
Zheng Yanqing smiled slightly, "Mr. Huang County Magistrate, why are you here if you are not in Ye County?"
He seemed not to want to mention the "suburbing the enemy" again, and brought the topic aside. But now, Zheng Hongyi hoped that Zheng Yanqing would be furious and furious. If this were the case, Zheng Hongyi could persuade him a few more... But the more Zheng Yanqing did not mention this, the less at ease Zheng Hongyi felt. It seemed that Yan Qing was really annoyed this time! It really didn't work, so he wrote a letter to his family to prepare early.
Huang Wenqing hurriedly said, "Young Master doesn't know. After you left Ye County, you encountered a severe drought on the plain. Last year, Ye County resettled many refugees, and more refugees moved to Ye County. In April, Ah-Du's army attacked Ye County. I rushed to fight, but after all, I was no match for Ah-Du's army, and it was so severe that he suffered heavy casualties. Later, the navy returned to the army and collected food and grass, but Ye County could not produce any food."
"so……"
Huang Wenqing nodded with a smile, "Originally, if I really wanted to collect, it wouldn't be impossible to collect it. But the people of Ye County were already poor, and the continuous collection last year was overwhelmed. I really couldn't bear to see the people suffer, so I refused to collect it, and was arrested by the county government, and was punished thirty sticks. I saw that Ye County was not peaceful, so I took my family back to my hometown. Just as I and Wuyi County Magistrate came out of the division. Wang County Magistrate asked me to help him, but I didn't want to care about those miscellaneous things anymore, so I just stayed in this inn and had a peaceful life."
When Zheng Yanqing heard this, he looked solemn and stood up and bowed to Huang Wenqing to the ground.
"The Huang County Magistrate is worried about the people, and it is actually a model for officials in the world."
Huang Wenqing couldn't help laughing and said proudly: "I dare not be a model, but I just don't want to be pointed at the backbone in the future."
He spoke with a solemn expression.
"I am asking for a meeting today, but I am actually asking for something."
"The magistrate of Huang County should say that it is okay. He will never refuse any of Zheng Yanqing's ability."
Huang Wenqing hurriedly thanked her. When she sat down, she glanced at Su Lie, and then hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm going to hide it from my affairs... Huang only has one sister, and now she is dead. She only has one son under her knees, and she is extremely worried. I once swore in front of her spirit that she would take good care of her.
Dingfang is a child with a straightforward temperament and does not know how to be sleek. In this regard, he and his father are quite similar to me.
Now I am a tyrant, so it is hard to help him. His father is also a lump of wood. The reason why he was able to become a military officer was because the bandits invaded the territory at the beginning of the year, and he organized the village warriors to repel the bandits... There was no one in the hands of the magistrate of Wang County, and Su Yong became an official. Su Yong was a low-ranking official, and Wang County Magistrate was also a turbid official, so he would not have any future in the future. It would be fine if we were cowardly for the rest of our lives, but I really don't want Dingfang to be the same as us. He is smart, has no weak skills, is proficient in bows and horses, and is not bad in martial arts.
But he has a bad temperament and has no way to go. If he stays here, he will be delayed sooner or later.
You are a famous family, and a noble scholar in the Shilin Province. You have a wide range of talents and a wide range of popularity, far from being comparable to those of us. This year, the letters have been quite uneasy and bandits have a lot of people. His father and I have been discussing and wanting to find a good way out for him. When there is no way, I don’t want you to come here. I just thought, let Dingfang do things with you... This child is reassuring."
Zheng Hongyi couldn't help but look at Su Lie in surprise and looked at him curiously.
Su Lie did not expect Huang Wenqing to say this, and he was anxious, "Uncle..."
"Dingfang, don't talk too much.
I had sent someone to ask your father for his opinion just now, and he agreed. If it weren't for the city still needing inspection, he would definitely come with you."
Su Lie scratched his head and closed his mouth.
His surname is Su and his name is Lie. Dingfang must be his name.
Su Dingfang... Zheng Yanqing was suddenly shocked and looked at Su Lie carefully, "Your name is Su Dingfang?"
"Oh, Dingfang is also the word "天子子子". He has little courage and good martial arts skills. He likes the most about marching and formation on weekdays.
So the magistrate Wang gave him the word "Dingfang", saying that he hopes that he can pacify one side in the future and seek benefits for the people."
Su Dingfang was a famous general in the early Tang Dynasty, after Xu Shiji. He was just a late master and only made his mark during the Zhenguan period. Even when the Sui and Tang dynasties had no reputation. However, in terms of achievements, Su Dingfang's achievements were not inferior to Xu Shiji.
In the early years of Zhenguan, he joined the army to fight against the Eastern Turks and made his mark.
In the first year of Xianqing, that is, in 650 AD, the Tang Dynasty attacked the Western Turks. Cheng Zhijie Wang Wendu was dismissed from his official position because of his cowardly battle. Only Su Dingfang was promoted to the chief marching commander. In the second year of Xianqing, he attacked the Western Turks again, and made outstanding achievements. Later, he attacked the Pamirs and captured the leader of the rebels. In the fifth year of Xianqing, he marched to Baekje in the east and captured Baekje Wang Yici. He conquered countless times throughout his life, and had great military achievements and was famous.
However, due to time, Zheng Yanqing always thought that Su Dingfang was born after Daye, and may even be during the Wude period.
Unexpectedly, he was already an adult at this time.
Then, in the calculation, when Su Dingfang really rose in history, he was afraid he was almost sixty years old...
Seeing Su Dingfang's eyes immediately became different.
Zheng Yanqing couldn't help but look at it again, "Brother Su, are you willing to follow me?"
Su Lie was stunned and hesitated for a moment and said, "I am willing to do it. I will not hide it from my son. I have always respected you very much before I heard that you "submitted to the enemy". The "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" you wrote is a military treasure book. I used the strategy before when Yang Gongqing invaded the territory.
However, when you wrote that you were defeated and left Jiangxia, you never continued it again, which made Su Lie very anxious!”
Zheng Yanqing has indeed not published any subsequent chapters in the past two years.
When he was in Emei, he had already written about entering Xichuan, but later he had never written any more because he joined the army in Goguryeo. However, the articles he wrote in Emei in the past two years have basically never been published. So many people are looking for subsequent articles in the market.
Yan Qing didn't expect that Su Dingfang was still his own book fan, and he couldn't help but laugh.
"Su Lie is willing to follow the young master, but he can't bear to abandon his father and uncle."
"Dingfang, a real man should have a broad mind and ambitions in all directions. Didn't you often tell me before that you hope to conquer the world and create fame?
Your father and I are old and can’t walk anymore... I will leave you with hope for this life, and I hope you don’t hesitate anymore. We are all easy to deal with, and there is nothing to do in Wuyi County. After a few years, you have achieved success, and we will find you again and find a stable life. Since Mr. Zheng is willing to accept you, don’t be half-hearted and have a bright future, and it will shine on the Su family.”
Su Lie no longer hesitated, "Ding Fang Ding lived up to his father and uncle's expectations."
Then, he leaned down in front of Yan Qing and knelt down, "Su Lie is willing to follow the young master, and ask the young master to take it in."
Zheng Yanqing was overjoyed: This is a good helper to deliver to the door.
"Su Lie, you want to follow me, but you still need to be patient. Can you endure it?"
"Su Lie can stand it."
"Since that's the case, go home and pack up your greetings, and we'll leave tomorrow morning."
Su Dingfang was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly to agree. Huang Wenqing was grateful again and talked about Zheng Yanqing for a while before he said goodbye and left.
Zheng Hongyi opened his mouth and wanted to have a conversation with Yan Qing.
He still hopes to explore Zheng Yanqing's words and persuade him.
But Yanqing didn't give him this opportunity, "Hongyi, let's go for a day, you have worked hard, so take a break soon... I'm very tired. If you have anything to say, let's talk about on the road tomorrow."
He expressed his attitude, and Zheng Hongyi could only smile bitterly in his heart.
This time, Zheng Xing might have really angered Yan Qing. But I don’t know what methods he would use to solve this problem?
"Then I'll go and rest."
Zheng Hongyi had no choice but to say goodbye and exited the room.
For a person who doesn't want to talk or is already out of anger, it's useless to say anything at this time. Although Zheng Hongyi is also very angry, he was born in the Zheng family and is a direct descendant. This is different from Zheng Yanqing, a student of the Zheng family who is almost like an outsider. His sense of belonging to the family and his sense of glory to the family are at some point far stronger than Zheng Yanqing.
Let me notify my father of this news first!
Wait until tomorrow, I will find a way to persuade Yan Qing...
As soon as Zheng Hongyi left, Zheng Yanqing's face suddenly became gloomy.
He could imagine that the Zheng family must have received the news, and it may even be using their relationship to try to clear it.
The Kanto gentry are related to us.
To be continued...
