Xia Xun took the letter and looked at it. The letter was written in Chinese, and the content was exactly as Zheng He said, and he was delighted in his heart. (Download the full text e-book for free) But he thought for a while, and then said: "Chen Zuyi has always been notorious in Nanyang, and now he is begging for a surrender due to the situation, but he also needs to beware of fraud. Wang asked about Chen Zuyi's situation in Bolingbang."

Zheng He said with a smile: "The Duke of the State is absolutely right. I have already sent people there."

Xia Xun didn't know much about Chen Zuyi. He had fought against him in the East China Sea in this life. In his previous life, he knew very little about him.

Xia Xun didn't even know that the thief Chen Zuyi had become the lord of a country. Naturally, he didn't know that he had played a trick of surrender. What he told Zheng He just now was that he had fought in the South and North for many years. Having fought wars, he developed a habit of caution.

Zheng He fought the world with Emperor Yongle back then, and he was also a man who experienced many battles. He led the fleet to the Western Seas, shouldered a heavy responsibility, and his mind was more meticulous. He also thought of this. After he sent the envoy away, he immediately sent People went to see King Managa.

After a while, his confidant Ha San came back and brought the news of King Manajia. King Manajia said that Chen Zuyi was very arrogant and a great disaster in Nanyang. , because if he continues to rob houses, the so-called country is nothing more than a den of pirates, who have avoided it in the past, how can he govern one side?

Therefore, since then, Chen Zuyi has seldom killed people, plundered goods, or exterminated them. However, whenever a guest ship passes through a port under his control, the property he collects in the name of tariffs is far more important than other Southeast Asian countries. His subordinates are all pirates, and it is inevitable to steal and plunder, so he is notorious among the Southeast Asian countries, and the countries are only afraid of his power when they associate with him.

These news are also in line with Chen Zuyi's consistent performance. If Chen Zuyi led a group of murderous pirates to steal a small country and immediately become a gentleman, that would be impossible.However, this news did not prove that Chen Zuyi's surrender had an unruly intention, it just gave them a better understanding of Chen Zuyi's character and current situation.

Xia Xun and Zheng He discussed whether to set off to visit Bolin State in the near future and accept Chen Zuyi's surrender. While discussing, Xu Hu came to report again, saying that a person was sneaking around on the pier. After being caught by soldiers, he claimed to see Zheng He Father-in-law, when he asked him why he came, he insisted not to say anything, and he insisted on meeting Zheng He's father-in-law before he could speak out.

Zheng He said with a smile: "There are quite a lot of uninvited guests today, let's bring him in."

Xia Xun wanted to evade again, Zheng He said: "You don't have to be so careful, you sit here, how do they know your identity?"

Xia Xun thought about it too. The habit he had developed over the years was indeed too cautious, so he smiled and sat down.

After a while Xu Hu personally led the man in, pointed at the head, and said: "This is our Eunuch Zheng. If you have anything to say, you can say it now."

The visitor glanced up, and saw that the person sitting above was wearing a brocade python white satin robe and a wingless black gauze on his head. No need, majestic but extremely extraordinary, hurried forward, knelt down to pay respects.

Appearance and stature have been one of the important criteria for the selection of officials by the imperial court since ancient times, and the servants are no exception. The crooked melons and dates are used to do odd jobs from the beginning, and there is no chance to serve the king at all.Among the several eunuchs around Zhu Di, Zheng He was the first in terms of physical appearance, profound knowledge, eloquence and mind.

Going to the West as an envoy represents the image of the Son of Heaven and the Ming Empire, so naturally it cannot be missed.Therefore, when this person saw Zheng He's appearance and dignified appearance, he had no doubts, and immediately bowed down.

When he looked at Zheng He, Zheng He was also looking at him. This man looked similar to Nanyang people, but was closer to the appearance of people in Fujian and Guangdong. He had dark skin, and he wore a pair of straw sandals, with his ten toes spread out habitually. , and the one who holds it firmly is also a person who is accustomed to sailing.

Zheng He then asked: "Who are you? Why did you ask to see me? Oh! Get up and answer!"

"Thank you, Eunuch!"

The man got up from the ground and said respectfully: "The villain Zhang Cheng is from Bolin State. He was ordered by Mr. Shi Jinqing, the leader of Bolin State Nangang, to see Eunuch Zheng."

"Is it Bolingbang again?"

Zheng He and Xia Xun looked at each other and asked, "What did Shi Jinqing ask you to come?"

The man said: "The villain was ordered by Mr. Shi to see Eunuch Zheng, and he has something important to report. The villain brought a letter from Mr. Shi with him..."

He untied his belt, bit the seam with his teeth, tore it vigorously, took out a crumpled letter from it, and presented it with both hands.

Zheng He took the letter and looked at it, and there was a whole line of large characters on it: "Zheng He's father-in-law and father-in-law". The signature was Shi Jinqing, and Zheng He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.Speaking of which, among the pirates, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Hearing Shi Jinqing's name, if his parents could give him such a name, his family background would not be too bad at the beginning. Looking at the beautiful writing, this person really has some literary talents .

This Shi Jinqing's father is a down-and-out scholar. Shi Jinqing has been studying literature with his father since he was a child. In fact, his literary talent is quite good, but later his family became more and more difficult. In the ranks of smugglers, because he was literate and quite resourceful, he was always favored by the leader during the pirates' annexation and annexation again and again, until finally he followed Chen Zuyi.

Why did Shi Jinqing send someone here?

Whistleblower!

Chen Zuyi was hot-headed and wanted to rob the Daming Fleet, and under his flickering, most of the simple-minded pirate leaders believed it. Only Shi Jinqing, who didn't say it clearly at the time, knew it very well in his heart: "Chen Zuyi is crazy!" Already!"

When Zheng He first sailed to the West, he also passed through Bolin State. At that time, the king of Bolin State was still Mana Zhe Wuli. Chen Zuyi was only a general of the country not long ago. At that time, Shi Jinqing was in charge of the port. The coming Ming Fleet, with masts like forests, covering the sky and the sun, is simply an invincible fleet.

The ships of the Ming army were not all as huge as a city, but there were also many nimble and small warships. Even if such a powerful fleet was tricked and lured into the port, Chen Zuyi would not be able to eat it.That's right, using tactics, there are indeed examples of the weak defeating the strong, but the difference in strength is too great. Can a team of 1000 people defeat a team of 1 people, or a team of 1000 million people?

Chen Zuyi is trying to die, Shi Jinqing doesn't want to be crazy with him.

Shi Jinqing was originally a literati who liked a stable life, and he did not have Chen Zuyi's adventurous and greedy personality in his bones.At the beginning, he defected to the pirates because he was forced to make a living. Now that he is an official in Bolin State, as long as he can continue to operate in peace and security, he can enjoy the glory and wealth, so why tie his head to the waist pocket?

So, he sent his confidants to Malaca to inform Zheng He.

After Zheng He finished reading the letter, his expression changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Chen Zuyi feigned surrender and wanted to plot against my fleet?"

Zhang Chengdao: "Yes! Chen Zuyi summoned all the leaders to discuss tricking your father-in-law into Hong Kong with a false surrender. He not only covets the huge wealth carried by the fleet, but also hopes to seize the invincible battleship of the father-in-law and dominate Nanyang. The villain is Master Shi Confidant, when Mr. Shi went to the meeting, the villain was at the side, and what Chen Zuyi said at that time, the villain heard clearly."

Zhang Cheng told Zheng He what Chen Zuyi had said about instigating bandits, Zheng He nodded, and said, "Well, if this is true, Shi Jinqing has made contributions to the country, and the imperial court will reward him. You go down first and wait for my news." .”

After Zheng He finished speaking, he said to Xu Hu: "Master Xu, arrange a place for him to rest first!"

After Zhang Cheng was taken out, Zheng He held the letter in silence for a long time.

Zhang Xitong, who had been silent all this time, said in surprise: "Chen Zuyi would be so crazy? How could it be possible to attack my ocean-going fleet!"

Zheng He said: "It's better to believe what you have than to believe what you don't. Whether Chen Zuyi really has this intention, or Shi Jinqing is at odds with him, and the slander is framed against him, we must be careful."

Xia Xun said: "Eunuch, what you mean is that we can't take the initiative to attack, and we must let Chen Zuyi reveal his purpose before we can counterattack?"

Zheng He said: "That's right! My Ming Fleet is coming from afar, and all countries welcome it wholeheartedly. It's not because we are an army of peace and civilization. If we act first, it doesn't matter whether Chen Zuyi really harbors evil intentions. We are wronged It is true that we are guilty of using weapons recklessly. If we have not wronged him, we claim that he intends to rob our fleet, so that he wiped out his army and country. Who would believe it? For me, the national policy of opening up seas and opening up trade and making friends with all nations is greatly contrary to my policy."

Xia Xun nodded and said: "My father-in-law is always loyal to the country and has far-reaching strategies, so he should be handled safely!"

Zhang Xitong still didn't believe that Chen Zuyi intended to deal with the Ming Fleet, and said beside him: "Guogong, Zheng Gonggong, in my opinion, this is probably because Shi Jinqing and Chen Zuyi are at odds, or they want to use the power of our celestial dynasty to replace him. Otherwise, Chen Zuyi didn't The reason is to reveal your identity, please surrender!"

Xia Xun said: "What Mr. Zhang thinks is certainly possible. However, Chen Zuyi, as the lord of a country, cannot hide this news from anyone. When we set off for Bolin State, we must of course learn more about Bolin State from the Manchurians." Due to the situation, his identity still needs to be exposed during the introduction, so it is possible for him to reveal his identity first to gain our trust."

Zhang Xitong nodded, shook his head again, and said with a wry smile: "My Daming Fleet is so powerful. It is not the first time that Chen Zuyi has dealt with our Daming Navy. Knowing the strength of our Daming Navy, you actually have the intention of robbing me. Unbelievable."

Xia Xun said: "If a person becomes mentally disabled, he doesn't need a reason."

Zhang Xitong said naively: "Duke, what do you mean by brain damage?"

Xia Xun laughed and said, "It's just that it's unbelievably stupid, and it's hopeless."

Zheng He said with a smile: "The Duke always has some novel words. The word brain damage is very good, but... the head of a country can be so brain damage? Not only Mr. Zhang can't believe it, but I also have doubts in my heart, so I said, although We must take strict precautions, but we must not rashly listen to Shi Jinqing's one-sided words and take the initiative to attack."

Xia Xun said: "When a person sits in the right seat, he can usually do it impressively. If he sits in a seat that he can't control, what stupid things he can't do!"
