Chapter 858 [Nanjing Rebellion, Imperial Orthodoxy] Six
Mu Linfeng heard this and immediately said: "Father-in-law, Xiyu is alone there. Although he has martial arts, he is still alone after all. Linfeng is really worried..."
Zheng Zhilong looked at Mu Linfeng and then at Zheng Chenggong. After thinking for a long time, he stood up and said, "Okay, in that case, I promise Linfeng that you will go there!"
When Mu Linfeng heard the words, he immediately smiled and said: "That's good..." Before he could finish, he heard Zheng Zhilong immediately wave his hand and said: "It's just me and your mother-in-law. The other brothers and nephews of Shiba Zhi, I won't bite them.
We will go together without speaking. I owe them a lot. I only ask Linfeng that you can help me take good care of them after my wife and I go there. Most of them are soldiers who can conquer and fight well, and maybe they can also help.
Linfeng, you can give me a helping hand!"
Mu Linfeng's heart moved when he heard this, he pondered for a moment, then nodded immediately and said: "Okay, Linfeng promises my father-in-law!"
Zheng Zhilong walked up to Zheng Chenggong and patted Zheng Chenggong on the shoulder. Then he turned back to Mu Linfeng and said, "Linfeng, after I leave, Fusong will be left to you!"
Mu Linfeng turned to look at Zheng Chenggong, immediately stepped forward and patted Zheng Chenggong on the shoulder, saying to Zheng Zhilong: "Don't worry, father-in-law, Linfeng will definitely treat Fusong like his own brother!"
Zheng Zhilong nodded, turned to Mu Linfeng and asked, "What about Lianxiang and Liuliu? Does Linfeng also want me to take them with me?"
Mu Linfeng nodded immediately and said: "Yes, Lianxiang and Liuliu will go to Australia with their father-in-law. Linfeng can start doing things, and there will be no worries!"
Zheng Zhilong nodded, and then asked curiously: "Australia? Is that the name of that wild land?" Mu Linfeng let it slip and had no choice but to nod...
Zheng Zhilong walked out of the study at this time, immediately called a servant, and said: "Go and tell everyone to gather here, I have something important to explain!"
All brothers and nephews who were not Shibazhi came to the door of the study. Seeing Zheng Zhilong's serious face, they all looked at Zheng Zhilong speculatively.
Zheng Zhilong cleared his throat at this time, and then said to everyone seriously: "Brothers and nephews, I have something to tell you now. I have decided to move to Australia with my family later, away from China!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Although they didn't know where Australia was, Zheng Zhilong also made it very clear that he was leaving China. They immediately asked, "Brother, what do you mean?"
Everyone looked at Mu Linfeng standing behind Zheng Zhilong, and they all knew that it must be related to Mu Linfeng.
Zheng Zhilong immediately said: "Everyone, this is my own idea. I am getting older and don't want to be involved in disputes anymore. Moreover, Australia has a mild environment and people of my age live there..."
At this time, Zheng Zhibao immediately said: "Brother, where is Australia you are going to? In short, wherever you are going, I will follow you..."
When Zheng Zhibao said this, the other brothers of Shibazhi immediately agreed: "Yes, we brothers are of the same mind. The eldest brother is going to Australia, why are we staying in the Central Plains?"
…………
Everyone agreed that they wanted to follow Zheng Zhilong to Australia, but Zheng Zhilong smiled slightly, then waved his hand and said: "No need, brothers, I understand your wishes, but this time going to Australia is different from the past, I just want to rest... Brothers still
You have your own bright future and your own wife and daughter to take care of. Why are you going to Australia with an old man like me?"
Seeing that everyone was still about to speak, Zheng Zhilong immediately took Mu Linfeng's hand and said: "Linfeng is now employing people. You all grew up watching Lianxiang. Linfeng is your pity husband and my son-in-law, that is, you all
My son-in-law, Linfeng is in need of help right now, how can you leave him?"
When the brothers of Shibazhi heard what Zheng Zhilong said, they all glanced at Mu Linfeng. Although Zheng Zhilong didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew it in their hearts. Zheng Zhilong was definitely not the kind of person who wanted to retire. Mu Linfeng must have said and done this.
What did you say to him...
What's more, everyone in Shibazhi also understood that Zheng Jiajun had gone against Mu Linfeng twice before, and now Zheng Zhilong asked them to follow Mu Linfeng wholeheartedly. This was not easy. Even if Mu Linfeng really took them in for Zheng Zhilong's sake, but
Can the past really be written off? Can bygones be bygones?
Zheng Zhilong saw the thoughts of the Shiba Zhi brothers and immediately said to everyone: "Brothers, tit for tat is inevitable on the battlefield, but our Zheng family and Mu family are already related by marriage. Regardless of political reasons, we are a family... Besides, I
I also believe in Linfeng’s magnanimity. All brothers and nephews are brave men. On the battlefield, any one of them can defeat ten men with one strength..."
When Zheng Zhilong said this, he turned to look at Mu Linfeng, and then said: "Linfeng, do you think so?"
Mu Linfeng remained silent. In fact, he was also observing the expressions of these Zheng family army generals. He could tell at a glance that these people would not convince him, did not believe in himself, and were unwilling to follow him. In fact, Mu Linfeng
To be honest, I don’t know that he himself doesn’t trust these people very much. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because the two confrontations with the Zheng family completely cut off the Zheng family’s dream of becoming emperor. There is another main reason.
, even Wu Xing, whom he had always trusted, would betray him, let alone these people. Mu Linfeng no longer trusts anyone from the bottom of his heart.
Mu Linfeng had read many books about emperors before. Why would an emperor call himself a loner? In addition to the fact that he was a superior emperor, a large part of the reason was because the emperor spent his whole life guarding against others, using others, and calculating.
The only real friend for others is himself. At this moment, Mu Linfeng fully understands the suffering of countless emperors since ancient times. Although he is not an emperor, he is already as good as an emperor.
But Mu Linfeng also knows that as a superior, in addition to a lifetime of scheming, he also needs to be able to act, to be an emperor and a king, and not to do whatever he wants, even if he is a self-centered and unscrupulous king.
Learn to act, and when you encounter things and people that you don't want to do, or don't want to do, but the situation is like this, you have to act, so Mu Linfeng smiled.
Mu Linfeng took a step forward, raised his hands to everyone in Shibazhi and smiled: "Dear uncles and brothers, I, Mu Linfeng, am the son-in-law of my father-in-law and the son-in-law of the Zheng family, so you are also my uncles and brothers, Mu Linfeng.
, As a person, you should not care about things, and you must look forward to everything. I don’t know what you think, but in short, I, Mu Linfeng, have completely forgotten all the grudges and grudges I had with the Zheng family in the past... My father-in-law wants to
Go to Australia to live in seclusion and live a carefree life without any worries from the world. Is this what I, Mu Linfeng, think about? People live their whole lives just to have a place to live when they grow old..."
Everyone in Shibazhi watched Mu Linfeng speak, but they had their own thoughts in their hearts, but they didn't say it out loud. From time to time, they turned to look at Zheng Zhilong, and saw that Zheng Zhilong was smiling, and it didn't seem like he was being forced by Mu Linfeng at all.
, all thought to themselves, could it be that they thought wrong?
Mu Linfeng looked at the expressions of everyone and said with a smile: "The Central Plains has not yet been truly unified, Manchuria, Mongolia and Russia are raging north of the Yellow River, and the five tribes in the Western Regions are in chaos. These will be hidden dangers for China. The country is still in the process of rejuvenation.
Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of a country... It doesn't matter if they are the poor people of China. You have all seen the arrogance of Westerners and Nanyang people on the sea. Sooner or later, these people will be my biggest enemy of China, so I am facing the wind today.
I hereby invite you all to stay in China and work hard for the rise of China..." After Mu Linfeng finished speaking, he made a long bow...
Zheng Zhilong quickly signaled to Zheng Chenggong to help Mu Linfeng up, and then said to everyone: "Brothers, Linfeng said well, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. You are all ambitious people, and you will definitely achieve something if you stay in the Middle-earth... Besides, I
I went to Australia, and I will come back to see you if I have the chance. After the war in the Central Plains calms down, if you have some free time, you can come to Australia to see me!"
After hearing what Zheng Zhilong said, Shibazhi's brothers had no choice but to bow their hands and say: "I am willing to listen to my elder brother's instructions and stay in the Middle-earth..." After that, they waved their hands to Mu Linfeng and said: "I am willing to serve Prince Mu!
"
Mu Linfeng laughed loudly at this time, waved his hand and said: "Prince Mu, that is all in the past. Besides, you are all Linfeng's elders. If no one else is around, just call Linfeng by his name..."
At this time, Tagawa Song hugged Mu Liuchun and pulled Nanasaemon over. He asked Zheng Zhilong in surprise: "Husband, are we going to Australia? Where is that place?"
Zheng Zhilong waved his hand and did not answer Tagawa Song's question. Instead, he said to Shiba Zhi's brothers: "Everyone, go and prepare. Let's set off with Linfeng later!"
Hearing this, Shiba Zhi's brothers all bowed their hands and stepped back. Zheng Zhilong briefly talked to Tagawa Song about going to Australia, but Tagawa Song asked Mu Linfeng, "Linfeng, it's popular nowadays to still be in confinement. Just now."
How can we go so far by boat from Ryukyu? You don’t feel sorry for your daughter-in-law. If you contract any illness during confinement, it will be a lifetime matter..."
