439 The Confession
As soon as Geng Zhongming returned to Phoenix Castle, his son immediately came to see him happily. As soon as he met, he chased Geng Zhongming and asked, "Father, how about it, has Lu Xiang been fooled?"
Seeing his son looking so eagerly and eagerly, Geng Zhongming did not speak immediately, but just kept looking at his son.
Geng Jimao was seen for some reason. He looked down at himself and didn't notice anything unusual. He asked in confusion: "Father, what's wrong? Could it be that Ming Jun discovered something?"
Hearing this, Geng Zhongming suddenly sighed, stared at his son's eyes and said, "Son, Dad tells you that Jianlu's life is a rabbit's tail and cannot grow. For the future of our Geng family, we should take this opportunity to return to the Ming Dynasty!"
"Ah..." Geng Jimao exclaimed after hearing the voice of the silence, looking at his father with a little disbelief, as if he didn't know him anymore. After a while, he stammered, "Father...Father, what did you say?"
Geng Zhongming knew that his son would find it difficult to accept his opinion. He was just his own son. He had to have the patience to explain: "Dad went to Guanglu Island this time. Everything he saw with his own eyes. Dad can tell you clearly that the Ming Dynasty is becoming stronger and stronger, and Jianlu's current dilemma should be just the beginning. Dad believes that it will take a few years to wait until the Emperor of Ming Dynasty personally conquers Liaodong again, it will be the time when Jianlu destroys the clan..."
"Impossible!" Geng Jimao yelled and interrupted him without even finishing his hearing, "The Qing Dynasty is invincible. The Ming army won once or twice occasionally, but it was just a reflection. Father, are you drinking it because you didn't drink it? Or did Lu Xiangsheng give you some ecstasy soup? The Qing Dynasty is so powerful..."
"Enough!" Geng Zhongming's face darkened as he heard it, and he shouted sternly, "Don't you! Do you think your father is you, you will change your original intention for a little bit of yellow soup, or maybe your father is you, you, so easily confused by appearance?"
Geng Jimao was so scolded that he subconsciously shrank, but soon he straightened his neck, like a stubborn bull, looking back at his father stupidly. Obviously, he had no intention of listening at all.
Seeing what he meant, Geng Zhongming knew that no matter how much he told him the details, it would probably not be useful. So he stood up and said coldly: "Anyway, my father is for this family and for your own good! It doesn't matter if you don't believe it now. When the Ming Dynasty revives Liaodong in the future, you will believe that Jianlu is the rabbit's tail that cannot grow."
After saying that, he strode towards the door of the study. When he arrived at the door, he turned around, turned to look at his son with an angry face, and said coldly again: "You'd better stay in the study obediently and never talk nonsense. Dad will send you three meals a day. Don't worry about the outside."
After saying that, he opened the door and stepped out of the threshold. Then he ordered the vigilant guards outside and said, "Look at this place, don't let anyone come in, and don't let the young master leave the study door, otherwise don't blame the master for turning against me!"
Several of the personal guards were Geng Zhongming's most confidant people. Although they were surprised when they heard this, they couldn't figure out what was going on. But since Geng Zhongming had already spoken, they knelt down together and responded with a "chaotic" sound.
Seeing their actions, Geng Zhongming couldn't help but frown. Obviously, he was a little disgusted with Jianlu's trick. However, it was not the time, so he didn't say much.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard something behind him. When he turned around, he saw his son's face full of anger and followed him out. Suddenly, his anger surged from the bottom of his heart, and he shouted loudly: "Go back!"
However, Geng Jimao didn't listen to him at all and went back to his room immediately. Instead, he stared at Geng Zhongming like an enemy, and shouted at his father sternly: "Geng Zhongming, you ignore your holy grace and really want to betray the Qing Dynasty. From now on, our father-son relationship will be broken down..."
When Geng Zhongming heard this, he was so angry that he trembled. He never dreamed that he had raised such a son!
I saw his face flushed, his trembling finger pointed at Geng Jimao, and he said stammeringly: "Disinzi, you, I...I..."
Geng Jimao obviously didn't want to hear what he said, and suddenly shouted outside: "Brother Aobai, come in, Geng Zhongming has betrayed the Qing Dynasty!"
Geng Zhongming was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help but turn his head to look.
Sure enough, after Geng Jimao finished speaking, a group of people broke in from the gate of the courtyard. Although he was wearing casual clothes, he knew him. The powerful man in Kong Wu was the yellow jacket in the palace, Batulu, Guarja Aobai, who became famous for the battle of conquering Pi Island, and the Manchu Yellow Banner, who was regarded as Huang Taiji's confidant.
As soon as he entered Oboi, Geng Zhongming understood everything. Obviously, although Huang Taiji said so nicely and believed in him or something, in fact, he was still somewhat guarded against himself.
It's ridiculous. They are in their own mansion, but they know nothing. Sure enough, there is a saying that goes, guard against day and night, but it's hard to guard against thieves in the family!
Thinking of this, Geng Zhongming thought of this rebellious son again, and even cut off the father-son relationship! Thinking of this, he felt like he wanted to vomit blood. Looking back on his life, he felt like he was really a failure!
In the yard, Geng Zhongming's personal guards first heard the quarrel between the master and his son, and then heard the conversation that it seemed that the master was going to join the Ming Dynasty. When he was shocked by the news, he saw the father and son turning against each other and want to cut off the relationship between father and son. Then, the famous Batulu of the Qing Dynasty broke into the yard. After a while, they were all confused. Subconsciously, the personal guards wanted to protect the chief general, so that they could make moves immediately and draw their swords to protect Geng Zhongming.
However, Obai seemed to have not seen it, and did not draw his sword. He just strode close to Geng Zhongming, which forced Geng Zhongming's personal guard to retreat subconsciously and did not dare to stand in front of him.
"Your Majesty asked me to come and help King Huaishun, but unexpectedly, when you encounter such a thing, are you worthy of Your Majesty's longing?" Oboi stared at Geng Zhongming and shouted sternly.
When Geng Zhongming was drunk, he didn't know if he was injured by his son. He suddenly burst into laughter and laughed a little crazy. There was only his crazy laughter in the whole yard.
When Obai saw this, he frowned and was about to get angry, but in the end, he still held back.
After a while, Geng Zhongming stopped laughing, looked at Oboi, and said sarcastically: "It's really a long man. I can even seduce my son to the point of severing the relationship between father and son, hahaha..."
"If you really want to be the Qing Dynasty, how can such a thing happen?" Aobai actually had a bad mind besides Wu Yong. He immediately asked, "I have no way to join me in the Qing Dynasty. The emperor not only doesn't care about the past, but instead appointed you as King Huaishun. How many people can I get such treatment?"
Speaking of this, his tone was relieved a little, and then he said to Geng Zhongming: "As long as you can return to the wrong path and do the errands assigned by the emperor, I can not report this matter, just pretend that it has not happened before, and your family can continue to live in harmony. How about it?"
There was no way, Huang Taiji set up such a big game, and Geng Zhongming was a key figure, so Oboi endured the urge to kill Geng Zhongming with one knife, trying to persuade Geng Zhongming to change his mind.
"Yes, Father, the emperor has also approved the title of Father, and has been inherited from generation to generation. This is a kindness that no other family has ever had!" Geng Jimao had arrived behind Oboi at some point, showing a sincere expression, and then advised Geng Zhongming to say.
It would be fine if he didn't say anything. After saying this, Geng Zhongming suddenly became furious and shouted sternly: "You rebellious, get out of here. I will never see you, the rebellious, get out of here again!"
But obviously, his words were no longer effective!
Oboi next to him was also a little impatient, and immediately turned to Geng Jimao and asked, "Do you know the Ming army's plan?"
"..." Geng Jimao was a little stupid when he heard this. He didn't expect that things would end up like this. He didn't even know what Ming Jun's plan was!
After coming to his senses, he quickly answered Obai respectfully, "As soon as he met, he said that the Qing Dynasty would sooner or later. I couldn't listen, so I started arguing, but the result..."
Hearing this, Oboi couldn't help but frown, turned around and stared at Geng Zhongming. Seeing him staring at Geng Jimao, he knew that he probably couldn't ask anything, so he waved his hand and said, "Search!"
So, the subordinates behind him immediately stepped forward, some forced Geng Zhongming's personal guards, and some went forward and started to search Geng Zhongming's body directly.
Geng Zhongming didn't resist either because he knew that resisting was useless.
The result was certain, nothing was found. Everything was in Geng Zhongming's mind.
Seeing this result, Oboi couldn't help but frown and immediately asked Geng Zhongming: "Where is the emperor's secret decree?"
"Secret Issue? What Secret Issue?" Geng Zhongming began to pretend to be stupid.
When Obai saw this, he immediately said, "The secret decree that will allow you to act cheaply!"
The secret decree has great power. Now that Geng Zhongming no longer has the opportunity to do something for Huang Taiji, he naturally has to take it back.
In fact, Geng Zhongming guessed it at once, but he still showed an ignorant expression and said, "I have never received such a secret decree, who gave it?"
When Oboi heard this, he immediately turned to look at Geng Jimao.
Now, Geng Jimao became anxious and quickly said to Geng Zhongming: "I came back from Shengjing that day. Didn't you give it to you? You even saw it!"
"Is it? Why don't I have this impression?" Geng Zhongming sneered when he heard this, "It's probably because you, the gangster, that's hidden? Otherwise, if the emperor trusts so much, why would I have other thoughts!"
"..." Geng Jimao was stunned when he heard this. How could his father be so lying?
However, Oboi was not stupid. Hearing this, he knew that Geng Jimao would not tell lies. So he stared at Geng Zhongming and said, "The emperor spent a lot of effort on this matter, and the Dongjiang Army must also be eliminated. I advise you to continue to do this job!"
After hearing this, Geng Zhongming sneered and said, "I can agree, but will you believe it? Will Huang Taiji still believe it?"
"..." This time, it was Oboi's turn to be speechless.
If you want to believe it, it is okay to deceive children, but people like Geng Zhongming are of course impossible to believe it.
However, this layer of window paper cannot be exposed directly. Oboi frowned and said, "You can tell the plan you agreed with Mingjun. I will report to the emperor word for word. If you believe it or not, the emperor will have a holy decision!"
When Geng Zhongming heard this, he seemed to be very cooperative and nodded immediately, "Okay, Governor Lu will lead the elite troops. Taking advantage of the opportunity when you want to surround him, he will raid Shengjing thousands of miles and bring your nests."
"..." When Obai heard this, he immediately looked angry and pointed at Geng Zhongming with his finger and shouted, "Don't think that if you don't say anything, I can't do anything. If you don't eat the toast, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After hearing this, Geng Zhongming sneered, "What do you want? Do you threaten this rebellious son? Yes, I'm just such a son. You torture him hard, maybe I'll do it all in my heart if I feel distressed!"
"..." Geng Jimao was stunned when he heard this.
"Or or I still care about his mother, you can also torture her. She gave birth to such a good son for me!" Geng Zhongming looked sarcastic, stared at Geng Jimao, and added.
When Geng Jimao heard this, he was shocked again and was stunned: "..."
Seeing him like this, Obai reached out and patted him and said, "Don't worry, the emperor admires your loyalty very much. The title of King Huaishun will be yours in the future. Your father is your father, you are you, the emperor has given it."
His words made Geng Jimao burst into tears and quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Shengjing to thank him.
"Bah!" Geng Zhongming spitted at his son. The Geng family was about to be ruined by this rebellious son!
Obai looked at all this coldly, and his voice became colder, saying to Geng Zhongming: "If the emperor guessed correctly, Lu Xiangsheng must have personally led the Dongjiang Army, use all the troops in his hands to mobilize the troops, choose land from the Yalu River, and sneak in secret. With your cooperation, you will first take down Zhenjiang Fort and Tangzhan Fort. If there is a leak, you will pass by Phoenix Castle without knowing it, and you will intercept it. Finally, together with the Dongjiang Army, you will also occupy Phoenix Castle, right?"
When Geng Zhongming heard this, he was shocked and immediately stunned. Because the plan he discussed with Lu Xiangsheng was like this.
Before he could come back to his senses, Oboi said again: "Maybe the Emperor of Ming will also respond to this matter, which will make Guanning Army have some abnormal movements, attract the attention of the Qing Dynasty, and reduce the pressure on the Dongjiang Army. Is that right?"
This time, Geng Zhongming was shocked again. Because Lu Xiangsheng did say so.
Huang Taiji was able to tell this combat strategy, which made Geng Zhongming suspect that there should be Jianlu’s detailed works on the Ming army, right? But now that the Ming army is gathered on the island, how did Qingzhu convey the news?
To be honest, for a moment, he couldn't figure it out.
Oboi kept staring at Geng Zhongming's expression, and he immediately knew it.
Calling God Say
Even though I still owe so much more, I received a million reward from Songshy. I am really grateful!
