Chapter five hundred and sixty seventh so understanding
Zheng Chenggong was very satisfied with Qian Qianyi's attitude, and his words became pleasant. The two had a peaceful dinner together and drank a little wine.
Qian Qianyi thinks he has a pretty good drinking capacity, but in fact he is certainly no match for Zheng Chenggong. He is not only good at drinking, but also good at pretending to be drunk!
After a few glasses of wine, he became less restrained: "Brother Zheng, let me tell you, I have lived a wronged life. I have never wanted to live up to His Majesty's trust and entrustment to me, so I have always been
Doing your best to the best of your ability can be regarded as fulfilling your duties."
Zheng Chenggong nodded: "That's true. In fact, you are not bad in this regard, but often the ministers who are valued are not the most honest people."
Qian Qianyi burped, and with drunken eyes he raised his head and looked at Zheng Chenggong: "You are right to the point. Over the years, I ask myself, even if there is no credit, there is still hard work. Why? Why do those fools and dogs work so hard?
Everything can climb on my head, ah? Why do you think this is?"
Zheng Chenggong saw that he was indeed very drunk and was too lazy to continue talking nonsense to him. He waved to two people to take him back to the house. After dragging him down, he sat in his original position and did not move. He poured himself a glass of wine again.
After filling a glass of wine, he poured it out and drank it himself.
"Flies camp and dogs gou Gou? Are you referring to Mao Bijiang or Wei Changqing? The abilities of these two people are far beyond yours. Isn't it human nature to choose them and abandon you? Such a ridiculous question can actually become a
Your troubles." After finishing speaking, he chuckled lightly.
Lin Chong knew that Zheng Chenggong had built a new mausoleum in the back mountain not long after he was proclaimed an official. Out of curiosity, he secretly visited it once. Of course, he asked Mu Mu to take him there.
The tombstone was very simple, with only one line of words engraved on it, "Tomb of my dear friend Zeng De". There was no mention of the person who erected the tombstone, nor the time.
Because Lin Chong was always nagged by Wang Chengen in the past, he deliberately imitated Emperor Chongzhen's handwriting. He knew his handwriting very well. He could tell through an ordinary omission or hook.
He didn't write it himself, let alone carved so many words in one breath, it's hard to recognize it.
He actually never thought that Zeng De was not only a capable subordinate to Emperor Chongzhen, but also a rare close friend. Therefore, he could somewhat understand Emperor Chongzhen's desire to avenge him.
.
He spent a long time looking at the tomb. After all, he had met several times before, and he had a good impression of this man. He originally thought that he would be the first person he saw after arriving in Nanjing, but he didn't expect that he would be the first person he met.
Before I even saw him, he had already had an accident.
"I don't know if you can see what is happening to us in the sky, and I don't know if Emperor Chongzhen has made it clear to you about our relationship. But if you are like me, you feel that he has already
If he embarks on an increasingly extreme path, just ask him in his dream to be more tolerant."
The relationship between him and Emperor Chongzhen did not have to reach such a tense stage. He had always imagined that after the real emperor came back, he would go sightseeing in a leisurely way. The reason for this situation was that
, was completely forced by Emperor Chongzhen.
"I don't have much desire for the throne, but I don't want to die so early. Not only do I want to save my own life, but I also want to save the lives of those around me. I hope you can understand me."
Lin Chong poured half a bottle of wine beside him: "I originally thought I would have the opportunity to sit down and have a drink, but now I think I have fulfilled the promise I made at that time."
After pouring the wine, he left with Mu Mu. As the saying goes, there is no turning back. The relationship between him and Zheng Chenggong has reached the point where they are fighting to the death. Unless one party surrenders, it is impossible to let go.
In fact, for Lin Chong, success only meant that he could protect himself and the people around him, but once he lost, it would mean doom. Emperor Chongzhen had no intention of letting him leave alive.
"Master, where are we going next? Should we go back to the palace or have a night chat around the fire?" Mu Mu has been following the master around these days, and he has a rough idea of his itinerary.
Lin Chong shook his finger: "No, no. Today we are neither going back to the palace nor going to talk around the fire pit. We are going to Wei Changqing's place to have a look."
"Boss Wei? But we haven't said hello to him in advance. Where should we go to find him?" Mu Mu was puzzled. We can't go looking for him from place to place.
"Think about what day it is today?" Lin Chong turned his head and glanced at the wood.
Mu Mu thought for a moment: "No. 16, what's wrong?"
"Wei Changqing won't go anywhere at this time of year. Now he must be staying at home, so we went directly to his home to find him." Lin Chong patted Mu Mu's head and led the way.
Mu Mu scratched his head and was a little puzzled: "Why does he have to stay at home at this time every year? Today is not a special holiday. It's not that special, right?"
"It's nothing special for you, but it's different for him. Today is his sister's birthday."
"Wow, Master, you even remember this? When did you know about it?" Mu Mu was filled with admiration.
"What's so strange about this? It was probably a few years ago. He told me once and I remembered it. This is normal. If you want to bribe someone, of course you have to remember what is precious to him. Let's
Let’s go buy something first and then go see him.”
Mu Mu hurriedly followed: "What do we want to buy?"
"Usually their cooks are all lazy at this time, but we haven't eaten anything yet. We can't starve with him, so let's buy something to eat."
Mu Mu complained in his heart that his young master did not care about others so much as he was afraid that he would be hungry, so he bought food according to his own preferences.
But Lin Chong still has some conscience. Although he bought all the things he likes, he didn't buy any meat food. The few dishes he ordered at the hotel were all vegetarian. After he came out, he bought a few vegetarian steamed buns and a few packs of snacks.
.
"There are not many friends in this world who are as considerate as me." Lin Chong couldn't help but want to applaud himself for his considerateness. Mu Mu followed behind with a chicken leg in his mouth and nodded vigorously. This time he still
He was really considerate and didn't let me go vegetarian.
