Zeng De watched Zheng Chenggong write the letter and seal it: "Who are you writing this letter to?"
Zheng Chenggong didn't seem to mind if he saw the content of the letter, so he sealed the letter slowly: "Written to Sichuan."
"Zhang Xianzhong? That's an old fox. He is willing to fight the Manchus with you?" Zeng De suspected that it would not be easy for this kind of peasant rebel army to achieve this step. Would he be willing to take the risk to fight against the Qing people's army?
"I don't know either, so I just asked casually. I didn't expect them to have much ambition." Zheng Chenggong sneered: "They are just a bunch of ants who think they are ignorant of the world."
Zeng De was speechless by the undisguised malice in his words. He wanted to say that since you are an ant, why would you go out of your way to write letters to others!
Knowing that he was the one who was going to get away with what he said, he decisively changed the subject: "Why did you ask people to send the reply back to Nanjing? At our current speed, we can't catch up with the receipt of that letter."
Zheng Chenggong gave him a meaningful look: "When did I say that I would receive that letter myself?"
Zeng De raised his eyebrows: "If it's not you, then who is it? Could it be that you still have a sweetheart in Nanjing? No, that sweetheart may not be reliable. Maybe he is already in love with someone else. Who else could it be?
Well, could it be someone close to the emperor? Yes, yes, you are a royal guard, so it is normal for you to know the people around the emperor, right?"
Zheng Chenggong gave him a calm glance: "Do you want to live a long life?"
Zeng De's eyes lit up: "Of course I do. Do you have a way? You even know this, you are so powerful."
Zheng Chenggong nodded: "I don't know how, but the old eunuchs in the palace can live a long time. Do you know why?"
"Why?" Zeng De looked confused, "Could it be...?" As if he suddenly remembered something, he covered his lower body: "I don't want to cut off my descendants. I haven't married a wife yet."
"There's no need to cut off the descendants. The reason why they can live so long is actually very simple." Zheng Chenggong flexed his fingers, and seeing Zeng De really put his ear closer, he suddenly raised his voice: "They know very well what can and should be said.
Tell me, what other things can you think about and never say?"
Zeng De covered his tortured ears and jumped a few feet away: "If you don't want to say it, don't say it. Why are you so scary? I'm not scared."
Zheng Chenggong ignored him and stayed idle for a while. After his ears stopped ringing, he forgot the lesson he just taught and went up to talk to him: "Your family must be very rich. Not only are they rich, but they are also very powerful."
Zheng Chenggong didn't even raise his head: "Why do you say that?"
The sly expression on Zeng De's face really made people want to beat him up: "I heard that Jin Yiwei has very strict requirements, whether it's family background, character, appearance or figure, even age.
Strictly restricted.”
As he spoke, he walked around Zheng Chenggong a few times: "With your appearance and figure, you should be fine when you are not disfigured, and you should not be too old."
Zheng Chenggong has been carefully cared for by countless people since he was a child. He is naturally very well-maintained. It would be difficult for others to guess his true age if he didn't tell others.
"As for your skills, we all know that the few tricks you used to deal with a gangster and beggar on the street can barely be counted on, but you will have no chance against that trainer."
This is true. Zheng Chenggong also had to admit that when he had to test himself in everything, he realized that the pretense he had learned before was simply useless. His current boxing and kicking skills were all learned from the real Zheng Chenggong in the past two years.
Come.
Zeng De saw that he was not worried or annoyed, so he continued: "I have nothing to say about your character. I can only say that it is unimaginable that someone can control you as an uncle. So you see
Apart from these, the rest is family background, your family must be powerful, and they want you to train in Jinyiwei for a few years, and then legitimately inherit the family business, right?"
Zheng Chenggong gave him a strange look: "In some respects, what you said is right." At least it's right to say that he has the power to inherit the family business.
Zeng De was encouraged and said even more happily: "That's great. You even know where the emperor is going. You must be very powerful now. My long-cherished wish is to meet a very powerful official."
.”
"Why do you want to meet a senior official?"
"I want to marry the most beautiful woman, but I don't have much money. I have to ask a powerful person to give me a good introduction. You must not shirk it. After all, I am also your savior."
Zheng Chenggong rolled his eyes at him: "Looking at your potential, I really don't know how you got together with Brother Zheng. You don't look like a person with big ambitions."
"You are really right. I have never been a man who has the world in mind. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. If the world is going to fall, people like us are nothing. My biggest pursuit in this life is to marry a top man.
Take this beautiful lady back and show it to my mother, and then you can live your whole life in peace and know nothing."
He felt embarrassed after saying this: "Am I particularly worthless? This is probably why Shi Lang and the others look down on me so much."
"What's the point? Everyone has his or her own ambitions."
"Yes, you also said that people have their own ambitions. It was just a coincidence that I got together with the boss. To be precise, I was desperate at that time. I had to follow them like a poor tail, so they looked down on me.
That's right, I never joined because of their righteousness."
Zheng Chenggong raised his head and glanced at him. Although he seemed relaxed on the surface, he felt aggrieved in his heart. What's wrong with being an ordinary person? There's nothing wrong with it, but the only thing wrong is that this is a troubled world. Even if you want to be an ordinary person,
All will be laughed at.
"It's quite worthless." He paused and his eyes became far-reaching: "But you know what? My biggest wish was that ordinary people like you who want to live a good life can live in peace, even if they are not rich.
I have to worry about food and clothing even though I am a noble person, I have worked really hard... I’m sorry.”
Zeng De panicked and waved his hands repeatedly: "What does this have to do with you? It's not your fault. You are just a guard. No matter how powerful your father is, he is not the king of heaven. You are also working for others."
Zheng Chenggong did not answer his words, but followed his own words: "The ones who are wrong are those who are unwilling to live a peaceful life, they are those ambitious ants who want to subvert the world. I will not spare them, not even one of them."
