For Zheng Jing, of course, it was full of absurd words, because Zhou Shi called him "the eldest son of the country" rather than Zheng Jing's self-proclaimed "Prince of Min". The fastest update and the whole text only made Zheng Jing quickly put down his weapons and surrender, and did not mention the treatment of Zheng Jing after the surrender. In addition to ensuring his life, Zheng Jing did not see anything beneficial to him. He no longer hoped that he could inherit his father's title of prince, but no matter how bad it was, Zhou Shixiang had to give him a title of Duke of the Kingdom. Zheng Mingjun could be awarded the title of Duke of Dinghai. Is Zheng Jing not as good as Zheng Mingjun?

Zheng Jing was very angry.

Indeed, Zhou Shixiang said it well. His Zheng Jing was indeed at the end of his life, but no matter how hard he was, he was always the master of Jin Xia now, while his prince uncle was on the other side of the sea.

Zheng Jing was really unwilling to surrender to Zhou Shi like this. He slapped the Book of Jing Zheng on the table with a hatred.

"The vassal lords, soldiers can be killed but not humiliated. Our soldiers and civilians in Jinxia swear to defend the vassal lords to the death!"

Hong Xu was still tough. He advocated to defend Jin Xia to the death and never give up his weapons to surrender. However, Chen Yonghua, who had always had a good opinion with Hong Xu, did not support him this time. Zheng Jing's confidant generals Yang Ying and Ye Heng did not say anything either.

"Why, are you afraid of the Taiping Army and Zhou Shijie?" Hong Xu looked at the silent generals with dissatisfaction, and finally his eyes fell on Chen Yonghua's face: "Fufu, you are a military officer. The vassal lord obeys you on your own, you tell me."

Chen Yonghua smiled bitterly: "What do you want me to say?"

Hong Xu said angrily: "We still have soldiers, ships, and hundreds of thousands of people. Could it be that we really have to give up and surrender to Zhou Shi?"

Chen Yonghua sighed and said nothing. Zhou Quanbin, the governor of the Five Army, stood up and said slowly: "Mr. Huang, even if we really don't fight, we are not surrendering to Zhou Shixiang, but submitting to the court."

"Since Governor Zhou's meaning, are you planning to surrender to the court?" Hong Xu sneered and said the word "Court".

"If the navy is still there, we can still fight. Now," Zhou Quanbin shook his head: "It may be difficult to continue fighting."

Hong Xu said angrily: "The Lord was humiliated and died. Zhou Shixiang bullied the vassal lords so much. As ministers, how can we ignore them? The military and civilians of Jinxia still have hundreds of thousands of troops. If we work together to cut off gold, it may not be impossible to save Jinxia! I don't care what you think, in short, the vassal lord must not surrender. It is better to break the jade than to be a complete one!"

"If you are sure to win, even if it is only 30% or 20%, I, Zhou Quanbin, will do my best to protect the vassal state, but the current situation is that even if the Taiping Army does not cross the sea to attack, the military and civilians of Jinxia will not be able to support me. Could it be that Lord Huang really wants all the military and civilians of Jinxia to die in the battle!"

Zhou Quanbin was very old. As early as the fifth year of Yong, he followed Zheng Sen to fight against the Qing Dynasty. He often offered a plan to advance troops and was appointed as Fangsu Town. He followed Zheng Sen to fight south and north and made many military achievements. He served as Zuo Pioneer Town and Yourong Banner Town. When Zheng Sen went north to attack Fuzhou, he was not only Zheng Tai, the Marquis of Jianping, but also the governor of the second division of the Water and Land. After Zheng Jing decided to disobey his father, Zhou Quanbin was appointed as the governor of the five armies, and was under Zheng Tai. Now Zheng Tai was killed by Zheng Jing, and Zhou Quanbin was exposed.

Bin is the first person under Zheng Jing. But in fact, Zheng Jing believed in Hong Xu and Chen Yonghua, and was quite distant to Zhou Quanbin, especially Zhou Quanbin's younger brother Zhou Quanyun controlled the last naval power of Jin Xia, which made Zheng Jing look like he was guarding against the Zhou brothers, for fear that the two brothers would betray like Zheng Mingjun's uncle and nephew. In this way, Zhou Quanbin was naturally dissatisfied. In addition, Jin Xia was indeed short of food at present and did not have the confidence to compete with the Taiping Army, so he naturally tended to surrender.

Ye Heng and Yang Ying, two confidant generals promoted by Zheng Jing, lost their former aura. If Zhou Quanbin had expressed this intention in the past, they would have stood up to face each other, but now the two generals are just like taking mute medicine. Zheng Jing has been paying attention to the generals. Seeing that they are like this, he naturally knows that they have no courage to help him fight against the Taiping Army.

After the rebellion of the Navy, Yang Ying was indeed out of courage, so she never said anything. Ye Heng chose to remain silent because he did not want to fight a civil war again and fought a civil war with no hope of victory at all.

Hong Xu was not moved by Zhou Quanbin's words, but still stubbornly insisted that the vassal lords would never surrender. The second division of Jinxia Water and Land also vowed to defend Jinxia to the death. In order to cheer up the generals, he made a statement about the battle between Jinxia and Xia two years ago, saying that Dasu had mobilized so many troops but failed to seize Jinxia, ​​let alone the Taiping Army that came from afar.

Zhou Quanbin refuted him, saying that this time and that time, when the military and civilians of Jinxia worked together, and everyone fought to the death, and thus achieved a great victory. Now, people are uneasy, the morale of the army is low, the strength of the Second Division of the Water and Land is weak, the other party has great justice in the court, and Zheng Xi's troops help him. How could Jinxia, ​​who is isolated from the world, still be as severe as the previous year.

When Zhou and Hong were arguing, Chen Yonghua finally spoke. Zheng Jing thought he would offer advice, but the teacher said: "The royal family has almost run away, and only one prince Lu is still there, and there is not even a man to mediate. If the King of Lu did not die of illness, he would ask him to come forward, or there would be a turning point. Only the current plan is whether to fight or defend, or to break up with the vassal lord."

Although Chen Yonghua didn't say anything explicitly, everyone could hear the implication. He did not support continuing the battle, but he did not want to say it explicitly, but kicked the ball to his students.

The teacher's flashing made Zheng Jing feel unhappy, and he left with a calm face. Hong Xu, the civil and military officials, supported him and vowed to defend him to the death, but the others all wanted to surrender, which was to make him feel unhappy. Chen Yonghua asked him to make a decision by himself, but Zheng Jing did not dare to make a decision, and he could not make up his mind. If he gritted his teeth and refused to surrender, he was worried that as Zhou Shixiang said, the military and civilians of Jinxia would all betray him as the vassal lord.

Zheng Jing went to find his mother.

In this world, when a son has problems, he often thinks of his parents. The father is gone, but the mother is there. Maybe the mother can help him.

On the way, I met my wife Tang, whom I didn’t like. Although Tang was cautious, the more Zheng Jing looked at her, the more annoyed he became. Zheng Jing had reasons to be annoyed. If it weren’t for Tang’s father Tang Xianyue, how could the matter between him and Zhaoniang be leaked!

"Where is my mother?" Zheng Jing asked Tang coldly.

Mrs. Tang was very scared by her husband's cold tone, and she whispered: "My mother is in the temple."

Zheng Jing snorted, ignored Tang's family and went straight to the temple to find his mother.

"Mother!"

Outside the temple, Zheng Jing let out a light cry. His mother's voice came from inside the house: "Jing'er, come in."

Zheng Jing pushed the door and found his mother kneeling in front of the portraits of the ancestors of the Zheng family. The portrait of his father Zheng Sen had just hung up not long ago, but there was an empty statue of his grandfather Zheng Zhilong on it.

"Mother, people's hearts have changed, and the child may not be able to suppress them."

Zheng Jing gritted his teeth and told his mother about what was happening outside. After hearing this, Dong Xian stared at her son, and for a long time, she sighed softly: "It's all your own fault. You shouldn't have killed Zheng Tai."

"Zheng Tai secretly communicates with the thief scholar. If his son doesn't take the lead, he will do it." Zheng Jing didn't think there was anything wrong with him getting rid of Zheng Tai.

"You really want to get rid of Zheng Tai, and you don't want it at this time."

Dong Xian shook her head. The disaster had been made, and it was too late to say anything.
