Speaking of this, Qian Jinxuan was already in tears.

Wu Zheng was speechless.

Qian Sule started a coup because of his involvement in the rebellion and was killed by Zheng Sen in Hangzhou Prefecture, and has not yet been able to seek a title for him.

But this cannot erase everything Qian Sule did for the country in the first seven years.

Although this coup was targeted by Wu Zheng himself, from the bottom of his heart, Wu Zheng did not resent Qian Sule, but instead felt...a pity.

The Qian family did make great achievements in this war, including Qian Sudian, who fought hard under Ningbo City.

Wu Zheng gently patted his wife in his arms, "...Don't be sad, when Qiao Gong comes back, I will ask for a seal for him... and then recommend him to the court, and never let him go to the battlefield again!"

But what Wu Zheng didn't expect was that Qian Jinxuan suddenly raised her head and stared at Wu Zheng's eyes, "The Ming Dynasty lost its country, and Hongguang Yingtian first became emperor, then King Lu of Lu, then King of Lu, then Longwu, Yongli... The sages were unkind and regarded the people as straw dogs. They often used time to honor the people, and abandoned them after using them as bad things... What reason did the husband ask the court for his brother to be granted the title of the father to his brother? Can the husband know that his father still bears the bad reputation of the rebel ministers?!"

Wu Zheng sighed endlessly.

Qian Jinxuan suddenly reached out and held Wu Zheng's hand, "Husband... let's go against it!"

Wu Zheng was stunned and thought he had heard it wrong.

The woman in front of her was a truly virtuous lady from a famous family, but today, she said this. I think she was so angry.

"My husband fought for the country for eight years, recovered lost territory and supported the Ming Dynasty. But as a result, the court sent Liao Zhongping to attack Hangzhou Prefecture while his husband resisted foreign enemies... His husband had 200,000 tiger beads in his hand, and my Qian family had accumulated a lot of connections in these seven years. If he could climb the high place at this time, there would be many people who would respond...!"

Looking at Qian Jinxuan, he looked strangely excited.

"You are afraid you are really tired... I have sent Song An to prepare a carriage and horse, so... You take Di'er and Rong'er to Wuzhuang for a few days to recuperate. On the one hand, I will take care of my father, and on the other hand, I will relax...!"

After saying that, Wu Zheng let go of his hand, stood up, and wanted to leave.

"Prince..." Qian Jinxuan shouted anxiously.

Wu Zheng smiled and comforted, "Don't worry... wait until you calm down, and then... let's talk!"

....

The next day.

The Navy Wang Yilin and six gunboats arrived at the waters of the Zepu Institute, and bombarded the original site of the Zepu Institute, which was almost abandoned.

Then he turned southwest and fired a few more shots in Haining.

Finally, he cruised swaggeringly outside Renhe Port in Hangzhou, and after three rounds of artillery bombardment towards Renhe Port, he left.

Two days later, the battle of Qiantang River broke out.

Liao Zhongping mobilized 8,000 troops to cross south, but was attacked by Chi Erhan with a hundred artillery in half.

The main force of the rebels crossed the river was hit by dense artillery fire until dusk, and they retreated in a panic.

On the third day, Liao Zhongping gathered the remaining troops and crossed the river to attack again.

This time, Chi Erhan did not attack halfway.

The rebels thought the enemy had run out of ammunition, so they took this opportunity to cross the river quickly.

But as soon as I climbed the river bank, I had not yet been able to clean up the formation, and was knocked unconscious by a blow of fire from the head and face.

Then, Chi Erhan led 3,000 warriors to launch an attack on the remaining enemies on the shore with dense muskets.

By afternoon, there were less than 2,000 rebels surviving by the river.

During the second day of attack, he didn't even see his opponent's face. His side was almost completely destroyed and the enemy's morale was lost.

Chi Erhan seized the opportunity and led his troops to launch a charge against the enemy on the shore.

As a result, it is conceivable that the surviving rebels abandoned their weapons and surrendered. The chief general Liao Zhongping was captured alive by Chi Erhan.

What surprised Chi Erhan was that Liao Zhongping looked calm. When he met Chi Erhan, his only request was to meet King Wu.

....

Liao Zhongping knelt down as soon as he saw Wu Zheng.

"The criminal Liao Zhongping...kill your highness!"

"I heard from Chi Erhan that your only wish is to meet alone?"

Wu Zheng looked at the dirt-faced Liao Zhongping and asked calmly.

"Yes." Liao Zhongping looked sad, "The criminal had sent someone to ask the prince before, but was rejected by the prince... A few days ago, the criminal received a secret order to launch an attack on Shaoxing Prefecture to restrain the prince from using troops to Fujian... The criminal was forced to...!"

Wu Zheng raised his hand and interrupted: "I have guessed these."

Liao Zhongping was stunned, and then his face was tragic, "Your Highness, the criminal ministers have no intention of attacking Shaoxing Mansion... It is really the criminal ministers who are all dead soldiers raised by Mo Nian... If you don't follow, you may be a mutiny immediately... The criminal minister thought that instead of mutiny, which would cause harm to the innocent people in Hangzhou, it would be better to use the prince to kill these thieves Qiantang River!"

Wu Zheng was a little surprised.

It was not that I was surprised that Liao Zhongping's army was the dead soldiers raised by Mo Zhinian, but that I was surprised that Liao Zhongping revealed his intention to fight.

But it is undeniable that with Liao Zhongping's military talent, it should not be so vulnerable.

After the attack was blocked on the first day, the next day he would attack with a set strategy. He would not rush on the shore after Chi Erhan did not react, allowing Chi Erhan to lead his army to slaughter without any strength to fight back.

Therefore, Wu Zheng recognized Liao Zhongping's statement.

Liao Zhongping continued: "In the city of Hangzhou, two thousand criminals left behind... They are all confidants of the criminals in Zuoying. The minister has given them strict orders. The prince only needs to send someone to take them back... I hope the prince is kind and gives them a way to survive!"

Wu Zheng also agreed with this because the rebels who had lost their main force in Hangzhou City would not be in Wu Zheng's eyes even if they wanted to resist.

Leaving Hangzhou and retreating to Shaoxing Prefecture was not that Wu Zheng had no resistance and had the power to fight back, but that Wu Zheng did not want the soldiers and the people to die in vain because of the civil war. At the same time, he could also understand what people wanted. Therefore, Wu Zheng's retreat, to be precise, was more like a...test!

Wu Zheng looked at Liao Zhongping calmly, and Liao Zhongping slowly bowed down.

"Even if everything is as you said... I will not forgive you!" Wu Zheng's tone was still calm.

Liao Zhongping looked up, tears rolled down his eyes, and he choked and said, "The guilty minister understands... In fact, since the prince rejected the messenger sent by me before, the guilty minister has guessed the prince's meaning... My crime is unforgivable, but the guilty minister still asks the prince for something, I hope the prince will agree!"

"speak."

"The criminal's family is young... I hope the prince will protect it!"

Speaking of this, Liao Zhongping raised his left hand and showed Wu Zheng his missing little finger, "Please think about the fact that the guilty minister was sincerely loyal to the prince back then... Let the guilty minister have a small way of life!"

Liao Zhongping kowtowed "bang" and "bang".
