Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God
Chapter 395: The Palace Change at Prince Yanping's Mansion (4)
"Ah!" Zheng Kezang's face turned pale instantly when he heard it, and his body swayed and he almost fell.
Then he took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and said to the commander of the Elite Eagle Guard: "Send someone to the Nine Gates Governor's Mansion immediately, in the name of the regent, to order the Nine Gates Governor Yang Yi to close the city gates immediately. No one is allowed to enter Shuntian Mansion without the order of the royal palace."
"Yes, I'll send someone to convey it right away." The commander did not dare to delay for a moment. He responded immediately, turned around and left in a hurry.
At five o'clock in the morning of the next day, the sky began to turn pale. Under the east gate of Shuntian Prefecture, six thousand officers and soldiers of the Shenji Camp were arranged in neat formations, and hundreds of cannons were aimed at the gate.
Liu Zihua, the commander of the Shenji Camp, stood beside the Second Young Master, holding a telescope and carefully observing the movements at the East City Gate.
Yang Yi, the commander of the Nine Gates, looked at the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion with guns and live ammunition under the city with a blank face, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Liu Zihua, what do you want to do? Your father, General Liu Guoxuan, and I are sworn brothers! Have you forgotten your father's advice to you? Don't get involved in the fight for the crown prince!"
Liu Zihua put down the telescope in his hand and shouted at the west gate: "Uncle Yang, what you said is wrong. My Shenji Camp only recognizes the talisman, not the person. Unless the Lord Guoxing comes in person to change the rules, we will obey the orders of whoever holds the tiger talisman. Uncle Yang, please open the city gate, otherwise please forgive me, your nephew, for being rude!"
Can Koxinga come? The grass on the grave is so tall!
Zheng Keshuang on the side said anxiously to Feng Xifan: "Master, Yang Yi is a general under the King's command and is loyal to the palace. I'm afraid he won't open the city gate easily."
"Hmph, anyone who stands in my way will die!" Feng Xifan roared, his voice echoing throughout the battlefield.
He jumped from the horse's back like an eagle spreading its wings and soaring into the sky. After flying thirty meters in the air, he landed lightly on his toes and used the force to jump another thirty meters.
His movements were as light and swift as a dragonfly skimming the water. After more than a dozen rises and falls, he had already arrived under the city wall.
Then, he ran diagonally along the city wall at a speed as fast as lightning, and jumped over the city wall in the blink of an eye.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack..." The soldiers on the city wall panicked and raised their guns to shoot.
However, Feng Xifan was very agile and flexible. With a few jumps, he instantly jumped behind Yang Yi, the governor of the Nine Gates.
He quietly unsheathed the long sword in his hand and gently pressed it against Yang Yi's carotid artery. He said coldly, "Tell your men to be quiet."
Yang Yi's face was pale, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead. He knew that his life was in danger, but he had no choice but to shout to the soldiers around him: "Don't shoot, put down your weapons!"
The soldiers looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, put down their guns, and looked at the situation in front of them nervously.
Feng Xifan smiled slightly and continued to say to Yang Yi: "Surrender, Second Young Master. As long as you surrender, we will not treat you unfairly. But if you don't surrender, you should know what the consequences will be."
His tone was calm and firm, revealing an unquestionable majesty.
Yang Yi muttered to himself, "I didn't want to get involved in this battle for the crown prince, but now it's like this, if I'm killed by Feng Xifan with one sword, it would be too unfair.
I have been through countless life and death trials, how can I die in such an unclear way? I really can't accept this!"
Yang Yi replied helplessly: "Master Feng, I will open the city gate."
He turned to the soldiers guarding the city behind him and ordered, "Put away your weapons, open the city gates, and let the Second Young Master and the Divine Machine Battalion enter the city."
Afterwards, Yang Yi whispered to the lieutenant general beside him, "Go and notify the Five Cities Military Command immediately and have them withdraw all patrolling soldiers in Shuntian City. Tell them that no matter what happens, they must stay at home and not go out."
After making all the arrangements, Yang Yi turned to look at Feng Xifan, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone: "Master Feng, you can move your sword away now!"
Feng Xifan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile, and said, "Of course, but until the matter is done, you must follow us all the way."
After hearing this, Yang Yi knew that Feng Xifan was going to kidnap him on the Second Young Master's warship. A trace of helplessness appeared on his face, and he could only nod silently in agreement.
Following Yang Yi's order, the city gate slowly opened and the soldiers of the Shenjiying entered Shuntian City in an orderly manner.
After half an hour's march, the Shenji Camp arrived at the eldest son's mansion and quickly completed the siege of the mansion.
Zheng Keshuang stood in front of the team, staring coldly at the closed door of the mansion.
He gave an order to Liu Zihua beside him: "Smash it and leave no one alive!"
Liu Zihua responded respectfully: "Yes, sir!" Then he waved to the soldiers behind him, signaling to attack.
In an instant, gunshots like thunder and cries of pain shook the sky, breaking the quiet morning in Shuntian Prefecture.
People were awakened from their sleep by the sudden noise, and were panicked and frightened, not knowing what to do.
They closed their doors and hid in their homes, not daring to go out easily for fear of encountering unexpected events.
At the same time, Zheng Kezang hid alone in the wine cellar, drinking sadly.
There were several jars of wine and a faintly flickering oil lamp on the table.
While drinking crazily, he fell into deep memories and self-blame.
He knew that he had lost everything, so completely. Apart from his father's favor, he had nothing.
Since the death of Koxinga, the Tang family has been supporting my father, and the military power has long been controlled by the Tang family, completely out of the control of the palace.
Now, Zheng Kezang personally eliminated the Minister of War Tang Xianyue, and instead helped Zheng Keshuang seize the military command, allowing him to control the military power.
Liu Guoxuan, the only person who could check and balance the military power of the Tang family, was sent to Taichung to resist the Dutch by mistake.
One step wrong, step by step wrong.
Zheng Kezang has lived under the strange gaze of others since he was a child. He knows very well how many people insult him behind his back as an "incestuous man".
However, is this his fault?
The sincere love between his father and his wet nurse, which transcended generations, was regarded as incest by the world, and his birth even angered his grandfather to death... His entire childhood was shrouded in the shadow of an ominous man.
As he grew older, in order to be respected by the world, he always bravely led the charge in the fierce battles with the Qing army or the Dutch, and was always the last to leave during the retreat.
When faced with natural disasters, he always put aside his own identity without hesitation and fought side by side with the people affected by the disaster;
When dealing with state affairs, he always personally inquired about every matter, was honest and upright, and had no greed or corruption...
