Chapter 5 Born Sacred
The Zheng family in Nanyang originated from Zheng State during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Although there was no great figure in it since then, especially in this dynasty...
However, in Nanyang, there have always been powerful families like local snakes.
This powerful family, which has strong power and has occupied many interests in the local area, will have many enemies around it caused by frictions of interest.
For example, the Zhang family, where Zhang Changshi came from, was originally a small family in Nanyang, and the Zheng family had bullied them before.
Now, Zhang Rang has become the leader of the ten powerhouses, and naturally scared the Zheng family to tremble. It is no wonder that Zheng Bai has this paranoia of being killed!
Of course, the strangest thing in Zheng Bai's words is actually the collusion between eunuchs and the Yellow Turban Thief!
However, Zheng Xiaoming did not ask, the Yellow Turban thieves were all rebels. How could the eunuchs in the palace who were trusted by the emperor and colluded with them?
This kind of question is only asked by those who are ignorant of the world.
In fact, Zheng Xiaoming, a person with a wide range of knowledge, knows clearly that there are so many black or white in the world?
Any absurd and bizarre thing can happen when interests are involved.
You said to be Ziling Emperor today... Of course, he is not dead yet.
In short, if you say that today, Zheng Xiaoming would not feel strange if he had something to do with these Yellow Turban thieves.
Of course, this does not mean that the emperor wants to rebel himself, but that as we all know, in another world, the organization that was bombed with the double tower, was still supported by the bald eagle itself...
It is not impossible to use the brain circuit of today, support the peaceful way among the people, and to fight against and curb the growing forces of the local aristocratic families.
I just didn't expect that I would just play with fire and burn myself!
Of course, these are just unreasonable guesses that Zheng Xiaoming is unreliable and irresponsible. And they just flashed through his mind.
He listened quietly to Zheng Bai's words. Although Zheng Bai was just a mediocre person, he must have known a lot of secrets after being the head of Zheng's family in Jun County for so many years.
Sure enough, he listened to Zheng Bai and said, "My hometown of Nanyang is the hometown of Emperor Guangwu, and the place where he started his family.
There are many people following the dragon, and the most expensive ones are the Deng family, Yin family, and Liang family! And they have married the Tian family for many generations, and almost all the queens come from noble families in Nanyang, such as ours.
However, since the late emperor killed the general Liang Ji, our nobles and descendants have been suppressed by the late emperor and the son of the day, and are now becoming increasingly weak.
My Zheng family was always attached to the Yin family, but now the Yin family is declining, so I can’t protect me. My son, you are now famous and have to beware of other people’s plots!”
Zheng Xiaoming almost laughed out loud when he heard this. He wanted to say, "Dad, are your paranoid paranoia for persecution too serious?"
It was the emperor who wanted to attack those families of Nanyang, but what was wrong with our inconspicuous minion family like Zheng?
What's more, suppressing the Deng family, the Yin family's Nanyang clans was the policy of the late emperor Heng. Over the years, the Yin family's Deng family had long declined.
As the emperor or the people in power, how can we try our best to suppress you?
Seeing that Zheng Xiaoming disagreed, Zheng Bai couldn't help but say bitterly: "My son, you have a reputation, it is the hope of my Zheng family's rise. Even the family has great expectations for you.
Now, someone is trying to break my Zheng family foundation now!”
Zheng Xiaoming easily understood this lot of words after Zheng Bai said, after all, he has been in this time and space world for more than ten years.
The history of this dynasty is quite clear about this world.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is what Zheng Bai mentioned that the Zheng family and Liang family monopolized the position of the queen, and used it to monopolize the government affairs, and even undermined the emperor, etc.
Later, when the late emperor, that is, Emperor Heng of Han, he killed the domineering general Liang Ji, and then continued to suppress these original families of noble relatives and nobles.
Even the current Ling Emperor has not changed this policy.
Under the suppression of the imperial power and eunuchs and the gentry, these old-fashioned families that had lost power had a hard time.
If this continues, then decline will inevitably occur sooner or later.
The Zheng family in Wancheng has always been dependent on the Yin family. Now that the Yin family is suppressed, it has declined, which naturally makes Zheng's life difficult!
However, with the arrival of Zheng Xiaoming, a guy who was born and showed many magical things, suddenly gave Zheng a great hope!
It is also this era still at the end of the mythological era, and there are too many magical things.
Therefore, the Zheng family believed that Zheng Xiaoming was born sacred and came here to save Zheng family. Even the family believed it very much.
If the situation in our family was not very good, Zheng Xiaoming would have been taken over and trained long ago.
Even so, over the years, the Zheng family has sent great scholars and talents to cultivate Zheng Xiaoming. It can be said that they have high expectations.
Some local hostile families in Nanyang are obviously very clear about this kind of thing, and obviously do not want Zheng Xiaoming to lead the Zheng family to rise again.
There are quite a lot of families among them. I'm afraid it's not just Zhang Rang's Zhang family, but it's even possible that the current ruling general He Jin's He family is not good for the Zheng family...
After all, if a family falls, other families can only eat enough.
When the Zheng family was strong, they occupied a lot of arable land wealth in Nanyang. When the Zheng family declined, the other families could not help but divide it up.
However, Zheng Xiaoming felt that Zheng Bai was a little over-concerned. The decline of Zheng's family has been around for more than a year or two.
Now those powerful families may no longer stare at the Zheng family. Even if someone is still unfavorable to the Zheng family, the situation is not as dangerous as Zheng Bai imagined!
So, Zheng Xiaoming quickly brought Han Peng to the woodshed for interrogation.
Han Peng didn't need anyone to ask, and immediately started talking about everything like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
It turned out that he was not sent by the Zhang family, but by the Han family.
However, the Han family is Han Jue's family among the ten regular attendants, so Zheng Bai's guess is not outrageous.
Of course, Han Xue, who is of high position and powerful, must not know about this kind of thing. If he knew, it would be unnecessary to kill Zheng Xiaoming.
For the Ten Generals at the core of power, killing a Zheng Junzi who had already lost power is not that trouble.
It was nothing more than that the Han family was originally just a small country tribe, and became famous with Han Xu's success. However, they focused on the remaining industries of the Zheng family, suppressed them in various ways, and seized them ingeniously.
Only such people with a low foundation will be so afraid of legendary geniuses like Zheng Xiaoming.
A real big family, even if they heard about Zheng Xiaoming's reputation, would only laugh it off.
