Chapter 388 Zhu Yuanzhang’s thunderbolt method!
Most of Han Cheng's attention was on Zheng Chenggong.
Compared to Zheng Zhilong, Han Cheng valued Zheng Chenggong more.
After all, this is a serious national hero in history.
Later, they fought with the Tatars for many years and persisted in resisting the Qing Dynasty.
He drove away the Western barbarians and conquered the beautiful islands.
Has always insisted on fighting against the Tatars...
Compared to Zheng Chenggong, Zheng Zhilong did a lot of things that were not very good.
Some are looked down upon.
When this guy reaches the later stage, it can be said that he has become an extremely popular minister.
During the period of Emperor Longwu, it can be said that one person was inferior to ten thousand people.
But there is also one problem that cannot be changed, that is, fighting for power and profit and engaging in internal fighting.
This is an old tradition of the Ming Dynasty.
If he was just fighting for power, forget it.
But it happened that later on, he was still ready to kneel down to welcome the Tatars.
I want to side with the Tatars in exchange for more benefits.
If he had not surrendered to the Ming Dynasty before, he would still have held so many high official positions in the Ming Dynasty.
It's okay to make the move of kneeling down to welcome the Qing Dynasty.
But his status is already very high.
Here in Ming Dynasty, he is a very popular minister.
But he still did this.
It's really shameful.
At that time, Zheng Chenggong did not agree with his father's approach and gave him various advices.
Tell his father not to do this.
But his father, Zheng Zhilong, refused to listen and insisted on contacting the Qing Dynasty and wanted to submit to the Qing Dynasty.
The Qing Dynasty was naturally happy to see Zheng Zhilong surrender.
However, conditions were put forward.
That is to ask Zheng Zhilong to go to the Qing Dynasty and have a detailed discussion.
Zheng Chenggong repeatedly persuaded his father not to go.
But Zheng Zhilong still insisted on going to the Qing Dynasty.
He believed that the Qing Dynasty would never treat him badly.
You will definitely be able to give him what he wants.
Then, when he got there, he was directly detained by the Qing Dynasty man.
Don't let him go back again.
At that time, Zheng Zhilong could be said to regret it...
Then the Qing Dynasty took him as a hostage and asked him to write letters many times to persuade Zheng Chenggong to surrender.
But at that time, Zheng Chenggong was determined not to surrender when faced with this situation.
Even if his father was captured and threatened by the Tatars, he would still refuse to surrender.
They are at odds with the Tatars.
Between his father and righteousness, he chose the righteousness of his family and country.
After seven years of this, Zheng Zhilong died.
Zheng Chenggong integrated the forces of the Zheng family and continued to fight against the Qing Tatars.
Faced with such an unyielding struggle, there is no lack of national integrity or other aspects.
Han Cheng was naturally respectful.
If not for this moment, Zheng Zhilong would still be alive and still Zheng Chenggong's father.
It would not be good to kill Zheng Zhilong directly.
When Zheng Zhilong comes this time, he will definitely not be treated like he is now.
At this time, Zheng Zhilong and even Zheng Chenggong were sweating on their foreheads.
Especially Zheng Zhilong, who was completely confused at this time.
He was completely frightened by the extremely strong and frightening imperial power emanating from Zhu Yuanzhang.
I was also shocked by Zhu Yuanzhang's way of speaking.
He really didn't expect that Emperor Taizu Gao would be so direct in speaking and doing things, not following any routine at all.
The most important thing is that everything he said is true...
Before this, I really thought so in my heart.
If the Ming Dynasty really failed, he would not mind surrendering to the Qing Dynasty.
I believe that the Qing Dynasty will never treat him badly.
Anyway, survival is not shabby.
Whoever you follow is not going to survive!
You can survive just like the Qing Dynasty.
As a result, these little Jiujiu thoughts in his heart were now directly expressed by Taizu Emperor Gao.
This feeling was really uncomfortable for him.
There is a terrible feeling that all the secrets in my heart have been completely seen through.
"Taizu Gao, the emperor and I don't dare, I absolutely don't dare to think like this!
Would never do that either!
In my heart, there will always be only me, Da Ming!
I am a member of the Ming Dynasty. I eat the food of the Ming Dynasty and drink the water of the Ming Dynasty.
Naturally, I will be single-minded and thinking about the Ming Dynasty!
I absolutely don’t dare to have other petty thoughts.
Please also ask Emperor Taizu Gao to clarify..."
Holding back the surprise in his heart, Zheng Zhilong could no longer sit still.
He quickly got up from the golden mound and knelt down on the ground, showing as much respect as he wanted.
Scared half to death.
He has gone through so many storms in his life to be able to reach such a position and achieve such great achievements.
But at this moment, he felt that what he was experiencing now was more dangerous than any dangerous moment he had experienced before this!
The Emperor Taizu Gao in front of him always felt that if he did something wrong, he would be hacked to death immediately.
Zheng Sen also followed his father and knelt on the ground.
Regarding his father, he didn't know what to say at this time.
I told my father a long time ago not to think so much.
At this time, the country is in crisis, so it is natural to rush over to join the imperial court and contribute to the country.
Fight the Tatars together.
But in the end, it was better for my father, who insisted on being smart and ended up doing this.
Are you okay now?
Emperor Taizu Gao said these words directly in front of him.
Let go of the previous decency.
If he had followed what he thought, why would the Zheng family be like this?
Even at this time, he had already made a lot of contributions to the Ming Dynasty.
They also made a significant contribution in the fight against the Tartars.
It's a pity that what the Zheng family said themselves didn't count.
The only person in charge is his father.
I speak softly, and if what I say is in line with my father's wishes, it's okay, but if it's not, it's no different from farting.
Even my father wouldn't listen to me.
The Zheng family will not change anything because of their own ideas...
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zheng Zhilong's body with scrutiny.
After a moment, he said: "It's best if you think so.
But we also hope that you think so and speak the truth.
This will also be done in the future. "
"Emperor Taizu Gao, these are all my true words, and I have absolutely no second thoughts.
I will definitely do this in the future.
Emperor Taizu Gao, from now on just watch Wei Chen’s performance!
If something about Wei Chen doesn't work, just chop Wei Chen into pieces! "
With the experience he just had, Zheng Zhilong is as honest as he can be at this time.
I don’t dare to have too many little Jiujiu anymore.
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and asked them to stand up.
Looking at Zheng Zhilong, he said: "When I say these things to you, I am not falsely accusing you. There is some real evidence."
As he spoke, he pointed at Han Cheng beside him and said, "I think you have heard of this man, he is our son-in-law.
His experience is extraordinary. He came to the Hongwu Dynasty hundreds of years later and brought us here again.
It was he who told us that there would be many turmoils in the Ming Dynasty and that the Ming Dynasty would perish.
We just came here to save Ming Dynasty from fire and water.
You, father and son, are also people who have left their names in history.
My son-in-law told me what you, Zheng Zhilong, will do in the future according to the original history.
According to the original history, the Ming Dynasty was indeed dead.
Various defeats followed...
You became someone's minister under Emperor Longwu.
The kind that is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
But you have climbed to such a high position, but you don't think about how to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country.
Instead, he was thinking about how to use his current status to exchange for greater wealth.
Prepare to surrender to the Tartars..."
As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he told what he knew from Han Cheng about the things Zheng Zhilong had done in history.
Zheng Zhilong was stunned when he heard what Zhu Yuanzhang said.
My heartbeat is about to stop.
There was a pop, and before Zhu Yuanzhang could finish speaking, he knelt down again.
"Emperor Taizu Gao, I... I don't dare, I really don't dare to do this!
I only have Ming Dynasty in my heart! "
At this time, Zheng Sen also knelt down with his father.
At the same time, a storm surged in my heart.
It turns out that according to the original history, his father would actually do such a thing!
How dare he really do this? !
Also, this Han consort is so magical and has the ability to know the future?
He was already in awe of Han Cheng, but after hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, he became even more surprised and awed.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zheng Zhilong who knelt down again, his eyes were light and without much emotion.
He spoke out: "Can we still wrong you?
If you say you've done it before, you've done it.
Do we need to lie to you?
Otherwise, why do you think we are here?
It's because our son-in-law told me about all the things that happened here.
I know that there are many rebellious officials and traitors in our Ming Dynasty, and the country will perish.
That's why we came here under the leadership of our son-in-law.
These big things are all true, but yours is false? "
After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zheng Zhilong suddenly realized that what he just said was indeed inappropriate.
Although I was eager to deny it, I had done such a thing in the future.
But this denial directly proves that everything said by this special Han consort is false?
Then this is indeed disrespectful.
At that moment, he quickly expressed that he did not dare.
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Zheng Zhilong was sweating profusely and did not dare to say anything more, he then spoke to Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Chenggong and told them what they would do next.
"You want to seek glory from the Tatar seller, but the result is completely different from what you thought.
After arriving there, he did not receive corresponding respect.
On the contrary, the Tatars were very tough and detained you.
They don't want to pay more.
Zhu Yuanzhang said, and the Tatars took Zheng Zhilong as a hostage to blackmail Zheng Sen.
At this critical moment, Zheng Sen chose national justice. Determined not to surrender.
And a few years later, the murder of Zheng Zhilong was revealed.
On this matter, Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely clear.
After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Zheng Zhilong became even more confused.
Not to mention how complicated the mood is.
My future is going to end like this?
He wanted to surrender to the Tartars, but was treated like this by them.
This...this Tatar is really not a human being!
Then he remembered what Zhu Yuanzhang said about the choice his son made in this situation.
The mood is even more different.
The look he looked at his son was somewhat complicated.
This... is really my good son!
So filial!
With his father under control, he completely ignored the Tatar threat.
So much so that in the end, he was killed.
This...this is really my eldest son! !
Why didn't I see that my son was so talented in the past?
He wants to learn from Liu Bang!
It's a pity that Xiang Yu is not on the Tatar side.
I, as a father, cannot survive...
Zheng Chenggong was also extremely shocked at this time.
Did you really do this yourself?
Did you actually do such a thing in the future?
I am a filial son!
How could I treat my father like this?
It shouldn't be! It really shouldn’t be!
But if you think about it carefully, the situation described by Emperor Taizu Gao will make you make a choice at this time.
What would you do?
After thinking for a while, he felt that he was afraid that he would make the same choice in history as Taizu Emperor Gao said.
They will still choose to be at odds with the Tatars.
Even if the Tatars threaten his father's life, they will never compromise.
"By the way, the Tatars are worse than beasts when they do things there!
We captured your hometown and destroyed all your ancestral graves.
Even Zheng Sen’s biological mother and your Zheng Zhilong’s wife were defiled by the Tatars and lost their lives because of it..."
what? !
After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, both Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Chenggong were shocked and angry.
Full of extreme disbelief.
What Zhu Yuanzhang said had a huge impact on them!
It’s simply earth-shattering!
How dare this Tartar dog do this?
It’s so damn unbecoming of a human being!
"Emperor Taizu Gao, Wei Chen will definitely stand firmly on my side this time, Ming Dynasty.
There will be no more wavering.
There will no longer be any Xiao Jiujiu in my heart.
I have been fighting with the dog Tatars for the rest of my life!
All the power of my Zheng family belongs to the imperial court.
At the mercy of the imperial court! "
Zheng Zhilong said angrily and solemnly
Zheng Sen also gritted his teeth and expressed his position.
The hatred for the Tatars is overwhelming.
Just think about how the Zheng family will end up like this in the future.
His own mother had suffered such an insult.
He was filled with rage!
That's his mother!
Mother!
Damn those dog Tartars!
I am bound to be incompatible with it!
Zhu Yuanzhang saw the reactions of Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Chenggong, and nodded secretly in his heart.
Quite satisfied with this.
If it were someone else, talk to Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Chenggong about the future.
Tell them what will happen to them in the future.
They will definitely think it is nonsense.
I think people who say this should really die.
How dare you lie like this.
But at this time, the words came from Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth.
And he still relied on Han Cheng's words.
Under such circumstances, persuasion is still very strong.
After all, Emperor Taizu Gao, who had been dead for hundreds of years, appeared alive.
Bring people to save the mountains and rivers of Ming Dynasty.
As long as you accept such a thing, it will be much easier to accept the rest of what Taizu Emperor Gao said.
And once it is confirmed that what Taizu Emperor Gao said is true, who will not be angry after learning that he will be treated like this by the Tatars in the future?
Zheng Zhilong is a businessman. Although he had previously thought of going to the Tatars if the Ming Dynasty failed.
But there is a premise, that is, he can get more and better benefits there.
Instead of ending up with such a miserable and aggrieved end.
In this way, it is easy to share the same hatred and hatred.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "It is best if you have such an idea.
Non-my family, its heart must be different.
This sentence is not true at all.
After all, the Tatars are not my Han people.
And after they come, they will never wait for me.
The only people they see are themselves.
The rest of the people are slaves in their eyes.
There are even many who are not even slaves.
They will not regard our country as their true foundation.
It would be too stupid to leave the dignified Han people alone and go to the Tatars to grovel and serve as slaves!
This is not what a good man does! "
When Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Sen heard this, they nodded hurriedly, indicating that Emperor Taizu Gao was right.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zheng Sen, but his eyes were different.
Looking at him, he said: "Don't call me Zheng Sen, let's give you a name, change it to Success.
From now on you will be called Zheng Chenggong.
If you take me, the Ming Dynasty will be able to rebuild success, you will be able to successfully destroy the Tatars and prosper again.
Hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Zheng Chenggong was immediately overjoyed.
There was also deep excitement in my heart.
It has always been a great honor to be given a name by the emperor.
If you say it out loud, you will gain face.
And now, he was given the name by the emperor.
And he was a legendary figure like Taizu Emperor Gao!
How can you not be excited?
"Zheng Chenggong, let's focus on what you will do in the future."
With that said, Zhu Yuanzhang told Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Chenggong what he learned from Han Cheng about Zheng Chenggong's persistence in resisting the Qing Dynasty.
After Zheng Chenggong listened to his experience in history, he seemed very excited and his heart was ups and downs.
Will I be so powerful in the future?
In terms of the righteousness of this family and the country, I am really not lacking!
At this time, Han Cheng came over and bowed deeply to Zheng Chenggong.
"For future generations, please pay homage to Mr. Zheng."
Zheng Chenggong was so panicked that he quickly avoided him and returned the courtesy.
Han Cheng solemnly said: "You can fully bear this gift.
Your actions were a rare bright spot in Ming Dynasty at the end of Ming Dynasty.
It is also a rare thing to be proud of in the humiliating history of hundreds of years to come.
You don’t even know how famous you will be in future generations..."
After hearing Han Cheng's words, Zheng Chenggong's heart became even more different.
Dang even solemnly stated that he would stand firmly on the side of Ming Dynasty, fight to the end with Gou Tatar and others, and never back down!
Life is a Ming Dynasty person, death is a Ming Dynasty ghost!
Do things better than before!
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zheng Zhilong and said, "You should be lucky that you gave birth to such a good son.
Otherwise, in the future history, your Zheng family will not have such a good reputation.
And this time, the treatment of your Zheng family is definitely not that good.
I will look up to you, not because of you Zheng Zhilong, but because you have such a heroic son!
That's why I have a high level of tolerance for you, the Zheng family.
Otherwise, with my temper, I would have killed you little Jiujiu! "
After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's murderous words, Zheng Zhilong quickly bowed to express that he had learned the lesson.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zheng Zhilong and said, "Let's call you Uncle Pingnan."
After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zheng Zhilong was stunned.
He really didn't expect that after Emperor Taizu Gao said those words, he would actually name himself Pingnan Bo at this time!
This... is really an unexpected surprise!
After all, he felt that his skin would peel off even if he was immortal this time.
It's hard to get through.
Who would have thought that there would be such a big surprise waiting for me. !
Immediately, he hurriedly declined, saying that he deserved it.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "We also know that you deserve it.
But we are still prepared to give it to you, Uncle Pingnan.
But there are conditions for this, that is, you can live here in Nanjing from now on.
We won't treat you badly here.
Leave the affairs of your Zheng family to your son.
As people get older, they will inevitably become confused and not think carefully about some things.
It is not as good as young people who are aggressive and motivated.
It’s time to give young people a chance to get ahead and have more experience.
Our son-in-law told us about all the things Zheng Chenggong did in history.
We will never treat him badly.
As long as he is willing to do good work and make any achievements, we will definitely reward him.
I will not deliberately suppress your Zheng family.
As long as he has the ability, he will make great contributions in the future, and it is not impossible to be granted the title of marquis or even the title of Duke!
It is necessary to say that the Ming Dynasty will definitely prosper in the future.
We are here to make Ming Dynasty different and reshape the country.
By then, these titles will be far more valuable than they are now. "
After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zheng Zhilong was particularly dull.
My position as head of the family is just... gone? ? !
But he also knew that after all the words were said, he no longer had any choice.
Immediately he said that everything would be done according to what Emperor Taizu Gao said.
He then handed over many of the powers of the Zheng family to Zheng Chenggong.
Let your son take charge.
What follows is a happy situation for everyone.
This was a thunderbolt method that Zhu Yuanzhang had already thought of before Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Chenggong arrived.
Compared to Zheng Zhilong, he naturally believed in Zheng Chenggong.
Zheng Chenggong's various actions in history have proven his loyalty and ability under such circumstances.
Naturally, it is more secure and reliable than choosing Zheng Zhilong, who has both the head and the rat...
……
That night, Han Cheng specially took time to entertain Zheng Chenggong.
I talked a lot with Zheng Chenggong...
Conquering the Zheng family will definitely be of great help to the upcoming battle.
After all, the Zheng family's power in the sea is not small...
It was also at this time that the assassins sent by Dorgon were rushing towards Nanjing City at night and under the stars.
To put Han Cheng to death... (End of chapter)
