Chapter 374
"Lord Zu, don't worry, are you waiting for Dorgon's reinforcements?

You see, I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?Is it okay to just pretend that this officer is cooperating with your plan to slow down the army? "

Liu Hongjian talked and laughed happily, and he didn't pay attention to the guards behind Zu Dashou who were glaring at him.

He is indeed not afraid at all and there is no need to be afraid, as long as he thinks, not to mention two or three people, ten people can be killed with a single bullet at such a short distance.

"If you want the old man to surrender, then the old man advises you to give up your heart!" Zu Dashou was feeling irritable.

Especially the young man in front of him always looked superior, as if he was inferior, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.

"Is Jianlu really so kind to you? Have you ever regretted your decision four years ago? If I..." Liu Hongjian blurted out a series of questioning questions.

"The old man came to your appointment not to hear what you said. Is what you said in the letter true? What about people?" Zu Dashou directly interrupted Liu Hongjian.

What an impatient guy, Liu Hongjian just shook his head when he saw the irritable expression on the old man's face, and turned to gesture to the masked 'guard' behind him.

The masked man seemed extremely reluctant, and slowly raised his hand to gently take off the mask.

"My son—" When Zu Qiuqing was about to move, Zu Dashou had a strange feeling. As soon as the mask was taken off, Zu Dashou immediately yelled out.

Although we haven't seen each other for more than four years, the 16-year-old child has grown up, but after all, he is his own child, and Zu Dashou recognized him immediately.

It's just that Zu Dashou was obviously wishful thinking, because Zu Qiuqing didn't even look at the father in front of him.

In fact, if it weren't for Liu Hongjian's persuasive and persuasive teachings and benefits, Zu Qiuqing would never have come to see this man at all.

In Zu Qiuqing's heart, his father died the moment he left him to surrender.

"Zeqing! Don't you remember being a father? I'm your father!" Zu Dashou didn't have half of the dignity just now. At this moment, he was just an old father who yearned for his relatives.

Although he has four sons, the eldest, second and third sons have been staying in Shengjing since they surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. Dorgon did not allow them to leave the city, they were actually hostages.

The youngest, Zu Zeqing, stayed in Shanhaiguan at that time and did not bring him with him during the Battle of Jinzhou.

Later I heard that due to the special care of his nephew Wu Sangui, the fourth patriarch Zeqing was only imprisoned indefinitely but not executed.

His life was saved, but he let three sons be imprisoned in Shengjing and one son in Daming. The son was bailed out.

Four years have passed, Zu Dashou thought that Zu Ze died early in the morning. After all, the situation in Ming Dynasty was changing, and his nephew also...

But now that Zu Zeqing was standing in front of him intact, how could he not be shocked?
"My father died in Jinzhou four years ago. Also, my name is not Zu Zeqing, but Zu Qiuqing!" Zu Qiuqing said plainly, regardless of the tearful Zu Dashou.

Four years is enough to wear away many memories. Zu Qiuqing thought he would hate his biological father, but facing the old man in front of him, he couldn't bring up that hatred.

"Qiu Qing...Qiu Qing..." Zu Dashou Nannan said, he knew the meaning of the name, too many members of the ancestor family died at the hands of Da Qing.

"Your son is now the Viscount of Daming!" Liu Hongjian also said flatly.

The implication is, what did your new master give you?
Zu Dashou didn't care to listen to Liu Hongjian's sarcasm. He was really unhappy in the Qing Dynasty, but he kept his family and continued the blood of his ancestors.

"My son is an honorable man of Ming Dynasty, and my son is promising..." Zu Dashou got up and wanted to take a closer look at Zu Qiuqing, but Zu Qiuqing turned his back and avoided.

"Master Zu, I mainly want to chat with you this time, to see if you still have the willingness to join me, Daming..." All that should be said has been said, and all that has to be done has been done. Liu Hongjian finally chose Break this layer of paper.

"Da Ming has no place for an old man. I just hope that my lord will take care of my son. We are our own masters. There is no need to show mercy in battle!" Knowing that his son would never forgive himself in a short time, Zu Dashou took a deep breath He said in one breath.

He guarded the border for Daming for decades, of course he knew Chongzhen's temper, Chongzhen wanted to crush those who betrayed him to ashes.

"It depends on people, the current majesty is no longer the majesty in your heart, he has a big heart!
If His Majesty is willing to show mercy and leave your ancestor's family alive, will General Zu be willing to return to Daming? "Liu Hongjian is still calm.

If Zu Dashou is willing to surrender, of course everyone will be happy, and he is sure to save this guy's life, but if he refuses... then he has already done what he can do, and he can only express deep regret for what happened to this guy earlier.

Confucius said to achieve benevolence, Mencius said to obtain righteousness, only when righteousness is exhausted, so benevolence is the ultimate.

This Jinzhou City, he will take it no matter what!Even if there is any obstacle, it will be cleared by him.

"Your Excellency, there is no need to persuade the old man. The old man has become the laughing stock of the world. This city is the last dignity of the old man."

Even if the courtier in front of him, whom the emperor had heard so much about, could really save his life, what about the other three sons of Shengjing?The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat!

Zu Dashou didn't hesitate after finishing speaking, he got up and went back to the city.

He knew that in terms of the artillery power of the Ming army, his end would be to burn the city, but so what?

It is better to die in battle than to die in prison for wrapping the corpse in horse leather.

Liu Hongjian looked at the stubborn words, and really wanted to shoot this fellow, maybe... once and for all.

"If you are still obsessed, I don't have a father like you! I vow to kill all Jianlu!" Zu Qiuqing who had been silent all this time suddenly turned around and shouted at Zu Dashou's back, but his eyes were already wet.

From the bottom of his heart, Zu Qiuqing still understood his father. Only when he really fought on the battlefield could he understand the difficulties of the general. After all, Zu Dashou was his biological father.

He knew that if he didn't stop him, maybe father and son would really want to kill each other.

After all, the reason why Mr. An Guogong arranged this meeting was obviously to save some trouble, but Zu Qiuqing knew in his heart that the bigger reason was actually for his consideration.

When did the Duke of the country do useless things, he has done his best to himself and to his ancestors.

When Zu Dashou heard the shout behind him, he paused for a moment, but didn't look back, and then crossed the moat without any hesitation.

The sling was pulled up immediately, and the sound was harsh...

"My lord..." Zu Qiuqing's face was filled with guilt when the matter was not completed.

"Let's go, go back and prepare to fight!" Liu Hongjian patted Zu Qiuqing on the shoulder.
