Speaking of this name, most people may feel very unfamiliar.
However, this is just the real name given to him by his husband when he was a boy.
But if we talk about his name and title as an adult, it can definitely be said that he is famous in China's nearly five hundred years of history, like thunder!
Yes, he is Zheng Chenggong.
King Longwu of Shaofu gave him the surname Zhu, King Yongli of Gui gave him the title of "Prince of Yanping County", and the people called him "Master of the national surname!"
In his early years, Zheng Zhilong lived in Japan and worked hard to make a living. Later, he became a disciple of Li Dan, a great overseas Chinese pirate. Then, he married Tian Chuan, the adopted daughter of the Fujian blacksmith Weng Yihuang. In the fourth year of the Apocalypse, Zheng Chenggong was born in
Hirado Island, Nagasaki, Japan.
All in all, Zheng Chenggong is actually half of Japanese descent.
However, he only spent a short childhood in the Japanese country. When he was seven or eight years old, his father took him to Fujian!
As the eldest son of Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Chenggong has been given unlimited love since he was a child. Zheng Chenggong did not disappoint anyone. When he was a teenager, he was already a high school scholar. Later, he studied under Qian Qianyi, the leader of Jiangnan talents, and was deeply loved by him.
But that's just the surface.
Reading is just one of his hobbies, but what he really likes is military service!
Although he was only seventeen or eighteen years old at this time, because of his calmness, decisiveness, bravery and resourcefulness, he already had a strong appeal among the "Eighteen Zhi" and was a well-deserved young master!
And with the rise of Liu Ruyi in recent years, the former has also become the biggest idol in the heart of young Zheng Chenggong!
But the flying generals of Dragon City are here, and Huma is not taught to cross the Yin Mountains!
Zheng Chenggong, who has been deeply educated by the Chinese since childhood, deeply understands that no matter how strong you are when fighting in a nest, you can only be regarded as a "general". If a man wants to truly show his majesty, he still has to be on the battlefield against foreigners!
At this time, seeing that his family actually interacted with the Duke of Qi, how could Zheng Chenggong let go of this opportunity?
Zheng Zhilong looked at his eldest son quietly, but found that his spine was straight, his eyes were not squinting, and his eyes were full of determination.
Zheng Zhilong suddenly smiled. He suddenly realized that his son's future achievements would definitely surpass his own!
"Forget it! Sen'er, since you want to go, my father won't stop you any more! However, this matter is of great importance. Your second uncle must take the lead in everything. You are not allowed to play with your little temper. Do you understand?
?" Zheng Zhilong looked into his son's eyes and said.
Zheng Chenggong nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, father! The Duke of Qi is famous all over the world, and he will not be the one who can't listen to what others say! My child will definitely explain this matter to him!"
Zheng Zhilong glanced at Zheng Zhihu who was standing aside. Zheng Zhihu nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, brother! We will do our best in this matter!"
Zheng Zhilong nodded, "Without further ado, you guys, let's set off now!"
"yes!"
~~~~~~
After traveling down the Yangtze River waterway, in less than twenty days, Liu Ruyi and his army of nearly 50,000 colored stone soldiers arrived at the source of the Yangtze River Estuary~~~~Songjiang Prefecture.
Here is the prototype of the Magic City, the largest city in later generations of China.
However, in this era, it was just an external port for private merchants of the Ming Dynasty, and was far from the prosperity of later generations.
Liu Ruyi carefully considered the reason why she chose to meet the Zheng family here instead of going to Fujian.
At this time, Liu Ruyi and Caishijun had basically jumped out of the court, but the court still existed after all, and there was no need for the two sides to break up until the last moment.
The Colored Stone Army has an army of more than 50,000 people. The goal is too huge. Jiangnan has been prosperous for a long time, and it is not suitable for the current state of the Colored Stone Army.
This time, although the Colored Stone Chamber of Commerce is in trouble, Liu Ruyi undoubtedly has a few advantages over Zheng Zhilong in terms of official position and status.
It is destined to be superior and inferior. As long as Zheng Zhilong does not break up with Liu Ruyi, Liu Ruyi will never go to Fujian easily.
And the most critical point is that although the Caishi Army is brave in land battles, its naval battles are just in its infancy.
Liu Ruyi inevitably has to be more reserved about unknown things.
As for Songjiang Prefecture, it is only a few hundred miles away from Liu Ruyi's base camp, Andongwei, and not too far away from Zheng Zhilong's home base, Quanzhou. It is naturally the most appropriate place to be in the middle.
As soon as the army arrived outside Songjiang Prefecture, Zheng Zhihu came up with a group of followers.
In fact, they had already gone to Nanjing to greet Liu Ruyi and his party, but Nanjing was one of the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty after all. In order to avoid being too ostentatious, Liu Ruyi did not stop in Nanjing. Zheng Zhihu rushed to Songjiang Mansion first to arrange everything.
.
"Second Master, long time no see, you look even better than before!" Seeing Zheng Zhihu again, Liu Ruyi smiled and bowed her hand to him.
Zheng Zhihu was so flattered!
A few years ago, he would have thought he was proud of Liu Ruyi, but now, the distance between him and Liu Ruyi is like a firefly and a bright moon!
"Qi Guo Gong is really a villain! I was ignorant when I was young, so I ask Qi Guo Gong not to take it to heart! Now think about it, I can actually meet and get along with Qi Guo Gong. It is really a destiny destined by God!" Zheng Zhihu couldn't move.
Send him a slap in the face in a sensual way.
Liu Ruyi couldn't help laughing, "We haven't seen each other for a few years, but the second boss is getting better and better at talking! Liu must take what he said seriously! Hahaha!"
Zheng Zhihu was not embarrassed, and always had a humble smile on his face.
After everyone exchanged greetings, the army set up camp and came to Liu Ruyi's tent together.
At this point, both parties were already well aware of the incident, and Liu Ruyi didn't have too many polite words, and got to the point directly, "Second Master, I believe you already understand the matter of the Colored Stone Chamber of Commerce!
I only have one thing to say: How does the Second Master think this matter should be resolved?"
Zheng Zhihu broke out in a cold sweat. He never expected that Liu Ruyi would be so straightforward. After thinking for a moment, he hurriedly explained: "Qi Guogong, our Zheng family really has no choice but to deal with this matter! Then Wang Jiao,
Although it is true that he is one of the heads of our Shiba Zhi, this guy has left Shiba Zhi a few years ago and joined those Dutch ghosts! If he does such a thing now, our Zheng family will also
It’s very embarrassing! Before leaving, the head of the family specifically asked me to explain this matter to Duke Qi! I hope Duke Qi can forgive me!”
Of course, Liu Ruyi already knew about this matter, but what he wanted was not Zheng Zhihu’s explanation!
Glancing at Zheng Zhihu, Liu Ruyi said calmly: "I already know these things! However, I would like to ask the second master, what is the first master's attitude towards this? How should this Wang Jiao matter be handled?"
"This, this..." Zheng Zhihu's cold sweat dripped down his temples. Although he was the second in charge, how could he dare to do such a thing?
In a hurry, I didn't know how to explain it.
At this time, Zheng Chenggong stepped forward. He gave Liu Ruyi a respectful fist, and then said: "Qi Guogong, I am not talented, but I understand! My Zheng family is at fault in this matter, but
, It’s just lax discipline that has led to the emergence of traitors like Wang Jiao! But how to deal with this matter, I am afraid it is my Zheng family who has the final say? Everything must be based on the attitude of your Qi Guogong! "
Liu Ruyi was stunned. She didn't expect that this young man would dare to blame himself for this matter!
He couldn't help but feel a little surprised in his heart, and said with a smile: "What's my attitude? Haha! Do you need to explain this? The sea dragon must bow! The goods of the Colored Stone Chamber of Commerce must be returned! The business road between the Ming Dynasty and the Japanese country must remain open!"
"
Seeing Liu Ruyi's inadvertent display of aura, Zheng Zhihu was shocked and quickly explained: "Don't blame me, Mr. Guo. My nephew is young and it is inevitable that he will not speak thoughtfully. Please forgive me, Mr. Guo!"
Zheng Chenggong ignored his second uncle's explanation, but straightened his spine and looked in the direction of Liu Ruyi.
Liu Ruyi also had a slight interest in this young man. Although he was young, he could see the crux of the problem at a glance. He was a hundred times better than Zheng Zhihu, who only knew how to make friends!
"Second in charge, this is..." Liu Ruyi glanced at Zheng Chenggong.
Zheng Zhihu hurriedly explained: "This is my eldest brother's eldest son, Mingsen, whose nickname is Fusong! Sen'er, why don't you pay tribute to the Duke of Guo soon!"
Zheng Chenggong glanced at his second uncle, then at Liu Ruyi, and quickly knelt down on the ground, "Zheng Sen has met the Duke!"
Liu Ruyi felt a little overwhelmed at this time. Zheng Sen? Zheng Sen! Could it be the famous Yanping County Prince in later generations, with the surname of the country?
No wonder he saw the crux of the problem at a glance!
Come to think of it, at this moment, he must have done some research on the situation in this sea area!
In later generations, although Liu Ruyi was not proficient in history books, he did have some understanding of this man!
Among other things, the somewhat tragic Zheng Keshuang in "The Deer and the Cauldron" is a descendant of Mr. Guo.
Of course, this is just Mr. Jin Yong’s joke.
In the official history, Liu Ruyi also had some understanding of this!
This man, to put it more bluntly, there is only one word, and that is ‘ruthless!’
Be ruthless to yourself and even more ruthless to others!
Historically, when the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, Zheng Zhilong had already planned to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. However, Zheng Chenggong, who had a heavy army stationed in Jin and Xia, refused to surrender. He would rather sever ties with his father and relatives than to join the Qing Dynasty.
!
Later, the Qing army captured Jiangnan and Quanzhou. His mother, the Tianchuan clan, was also captured and humiliated by the Qing army!
After Zheng Chenggong succeeded in his counterattack, he split his mother's body in half and washed it in the river just because he felt that her mother was no longer pure!
Later, under great pressure, he successfully conquered Taiwan and saved half of China's bloodline. Everything proved that his ambition was far beyond ordinary people's perseverance!
This is one of the most ruthless people in Chinese history!
At this time, seeing this man actually coming to her eyes, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Liu Ruyi's mouth.
With a hardliner like him here, I'm afraid the next thing will go much smoother!
