Concubine

Chapter 529 Ci Chapter 525 Voyage to Hermitage (The Finale)

Yang Qiuchi explained in detail why he came to Qingyang mansion this time to ask Yang Tashan to return to the capital.

Hearing his father's words, Yang Tashan felt very complicated, he didn't know whether to be happy or sad.However, there is a relaxed feeling, a feeling that the sky is high and the birds are flying.

Yang Tashan left the post station and came to the yamen arrest squad to look for Cheng Ziqin, but she was not there, and when he inquired, he said that he was not feeling well and asked for leave today.

Yang Tashan had vaguely guessed why Cheng Ziqin was ill, so he went straight to Cheng Ziqin's residence behind the police squad.

Yang Tashan recalled the scene of the two talking in this room when it was raining that day, and tenderness rose in his heart, he raised his hand and patted the door lightly, but no one answered.They patted again, and then heard Cheng Ziqin's lazy voice: "Who is it?"

"Ziqin, it's me! Stepping on the mountain."

"Ah~!" There was a low cry from inside, but the voice contained uncontrollable joy, "Wait!" After a while, the door opened, and Cheng Ziqin stood at the door with a calm expression: "Come in. "

Yang Tashan stepped into the door, saw that the quilts on the kang were still piled up in a mess, turned his head, and took a good look at Cheng Ziqin's face: "What's wrong? Are you sick?"

"No..., I'm not feeling well, I don't want to go to work."

"You are the chief arrester, if you don't go, what will the brothers do?"

"Isn't there still you?" Cheng Ziqin went to the bed and sat down, tidying the sheets casually.

"Me? I just want to tell you that tomorrow I will return to the capital with my father and the others." Yang Tashan sat down on the stool beside the round table.

"Oh..." Cheng Ziqin's body shook slightly, his expression changed slightly, and then he regained his composure, "Are you here to say goodbye to me?"

"That's right, we were born and died, and we fought life and death together among thousands of Tatar soldiers. We are brothers and sisters. How could we leave without telling you?"

Cheng Ziqin lowered her head, her long eyelashes trembling, and finally, a crystal tear slowly rolled down, she hurriedly turned her side, raised her sleeve and wiped away the tear.

Yang Tashan stood up, walked to Cheng Ziqin's side, sat down next to her, and stretched out his hands to support her shoulders: "Ziqin, come with me, okay?"

Cheng Ziqin trembled slightly again, raised her tearful eyes and looked at Yang Tashan: "What did you say?"

"Follow me," Yang Tashan said firmly and eagerly, "marry me and be my wife, okay?"

Joy flashed in Cheng Ziqin's eyes, and he said in a trembling voice, "You...what did you say...?"

Yang Tashan said: "Ziqin, in fact, I have fallen in love with you a long time ago, but you are always so repulsive, I... I dare not tell you, I also know, in fact, you also like it very much Me, right?"

Cheng Ziqin twisted her body, lowered her head, and said shyly, "Who...who likes you~!"

Yang Tashan hugged her into his arms: "That day when I was surrounded by Tatars, I actually heard what you said clearly. You said that you would be satisfied if you could die with me. At that time, I knew, You actually like me, right?"

Cheng Ziqin snuggled into his arms docilely, her heart was beating wildly like a deer, she was even more shy when she heard him talk about that incident, she felt so at ease with her face resting on his shoulder.

Yang Tashan went on to say: "Ziqin, although you are usually lukewarm to me, the words you said to me between life and death are your sincere words, so from then on, I will fight you." I have made up my mind, I will definitely marry you in the future!"

Cheng Ziqin snuggled into his arms, her weak voice was a bit desolate: "You are...you are the eldest son of the commander, I...I'm just a lowly catcher..."

Yang Tashan lowered his head and pressed against her soft and warm face: "Just now I told my father that I want to marry you, and my father has already agreed!"

"Really?" Cheng Ziqin trembled, sat up straight, and looked at Yang Tashan in surprise.

Yang Tashan nodded, held her shoulders, stared into her eyes, and asked softly, "Ziqin, will you marry me?"

Cheng Ziqin shyly avoided his gaze, turned his face sideways, and nodded slightly after a while.

Yang Tashan was overjoyed, he hugged her into his arms, kissed her face, neck, and finally, kissed her red lips.

Cheng Ziqin kissed back enthusiastically, she had been waiting for this moment for a long time, feeling the passionate kiss from her sweetheart, savoring the happiness in her heart.

After a long time, their lips parted.

Yang Tashan hugged Cheng Ziqin and said in a low voice, "Ziqin, there is one more thing I want to tell you."

"Well, tell me." Cheng Ziqin said softly, leaning against him.

"My father has resigned from his position as the commander of Jinyiwei."

"Oh? Why?" Cheng Ziqin was a little surprised, and looked up at Yang Tashan.

"My father said that now Dongchang is becoming more and more powerful, and the emperor's reliance on Dongchang has faintly surpassed that of Jin Yiwei. The things Dongchang does are similar to those of the commander Ji Gang back then. About the ass hole, remember the last time I visited the mysterious house at night and the pregnant woman was murdered?"

Cheng Ziqin nodded.

"That's what Dongchang did!" Yang Tashan briefly explained the ins and outs of that incident.

Cheng Ziqin's face was serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty...how could your Majesty do this!"

"In order to live forever, the emperor can do even the most unreasonable things!" Yang Tashan said in a low voice, "So my father was very disheartened, and the last time he tried to persuade him, he even quarreled with the owner of Dongchang. , was reprimanded by the emperor for the dragon shooting case, saying that he no longer wants to listen to my father's great principles, and obviously leans towards Dongchang."

Cheng Ziqin said: "I also heard that Dongchang is very powerful now. It is said that Jin Yiwei will be polite when he sees them."

"Yeah, my father was very sad. When he got home, he discussed with my grandmother, aunt, and my mother. He felt that Dongchang had the emperor as his backer. He would definitely be no match for them. Since he didn't want to be fooled by Dongchang Grandson, everyone thinks that this official can no longer be held, lest he be brought down by Dongchang like he was framed by Ji Gang back then, it is better to resign now, go far away, and live a happy life."

Cheng Ziqin said: "Yes, when a gentleman fights with a villain, he will always suffer. It's just that if he resigns, Dongchang and the emperor may not let it go."

"Yes, everyone also thought of this when discussing. Fortunately, my father has always been good friends with Zheng He, the eunuch who has been sent to the West several times. After discussing with Zheng Gonggong, my father decided to resign. Eunuch Zheng went to Nanyang together to find a place to live overseas."

Cheng Ziqin clapped his hands and said: "This is a good idea. As long as we leave the area of ​​Daming, the emperor and Dongchang will feel at ease, and this will be truly safe."

"Yes, so, the next morning, my father asked to tell his old man to return to his hometown, and asked to follow Mr. Zheng to go overseas, travel around the world, and choose a place to live. When the emperor was overjoyed, he immediately agreed to play and rewarded my father. The gold, silver and jewels encouraged my father and Zheng and Eunuch Zheng to set off overseas in the near future. So, my mother and the others started to sell their property, so my father came to Qingyang Mansion and asked me to come."

Speaking of this, Yang Tashan kissed Cheng Ziqin's red lips lightly: "Ziqin, are you willing to follow me out to sea and settle down in the ends of the earth?"

Cheng Ziqin kissed Yang Tashan back, and said shyly but firmly: "After marrying you, I will be yours. No matter where the world is, I will be with you!"

"Great!" Yang Tashan hugged Cheng Ziqin tightly, and the two kissed deeply.

On that day, the yamen of the prefect of Qingyang prefecture decorated with lanterns and festoons, and arranged the marriage for Yang Tashan, the eldest son of Yang Qiuchi, the Duke of Zhen, and Cheng Ziqin. Since both of Cheng Ziqin's parents died, and the date of Zheng He's voyage had been set, they hurried back to the capital. , this marriage will keep everything simple.

Although it was simple, it was very lively and grand. The prefect of Qingyang Prefecture, Han Zhifu, was the witness of the wedding. All the dignified people from all over the Qingyang Prefecture came, and the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers was deafening.

Tian Nizi knew that Yang Tashan and the others would return to the capital after they got married, and she was both happy and sad. On the wine table, she tightly held Yang Tashan's hand and shed tears.

Yang Tashan was also a little sad. He never knew that Tian Nizi was infatuated with him. However, Tian Nizi is already a wife, so what can he do, it can only be a good memory.

On the second day, the prefect of Han and the officials of Qingyang Prefecture, as well as a group of Yamen policemen and Tian Nizi sent Yang Qiuchi, Yang Tashan, Cheng Ziqin and maid Xing'er to Shili Changting. Only then bid farewell.

There was nothing to say all the way, and after more than ten days, I rushed back to the capital.

At this time, all the property of the Yang family had been disposed of.Mother Yang, Feng Xiaoxue, Liu Ruobing and others saw that Yang Tashan brought back a beautiful new wife, they were all overjoyed.

Cheng Ziqin kowtowed one by one and spoke very well, which won everyone's favor.

After Yang Qiuchi resigned last time, Song Yuner of course also resigned, and Nan Gongxiong, Xu Shiling, Shi Qiujian, and Xia Ping, the four life-and-death friends of Yang Qiuchi, also resigned. All the cronies in Jinyiwei who have been in Jinyiwei for many years vowed to follow Yang Qiuchi to the sea and return to seclusion.

Yang Qiuchi was very moved and agreed immediately.Due to the large number of Yang family returning to sea this time, they decided to build their own fleet.Emperor Zhu Zhanji expressed his gratitude to Yang Qiuchi, the veteran of the three dynasties, and retreated bravely. He issued an imperial decree to allocate huge sums of money from the treasury, and sent skilled craftsmen to build a special fleet for the Yang family.In the past two months since Yang Qiuchi went to Qingyang Mansion, the Yang family's fleet has been fully built, and it has docked in Tianjin Wei Harbor together with Zheng He's fleet.

There were over a hundred ships on the mission, among which the ships of the Yang family accounted for almost half.He was tall, mighty and strong, and approved by the emperor, he also set up several artillery pieces, and equipped Nan Gongxiong and his escort team with the most sophisticated weapons and equipment and the best helmsman.The Yang family's fleet gathered the most advanced naval equipment and technology of the Ming Dynasty at that time. Compared with Zheng He's fleet or other Ming's navies, the Yang family's fleet was indistinguishable.

When leaving, the emperor was grateful for Yang Qiuchi's devotion to the Ming Dynasty, so he took all the civil and military officials of Shuntian Prefecture Song Zhifu and other civil and military officials to Tianjin Weihai Port to see him off in person.

On the bow, Yang Qiuchi, Yang's mother, his original wife Feng Xiaoxue, seven concubines Qin Zhihui, Song Qing, Liu Ruobing, Song Yuner, Hongling, Yunlu, Bai Sumei, son Yang Tashan, daughter-in-law Cheng Ziqin, daughter Yang Wan Xi, Yang Ruozi, maid Xing'er, Yuechan and the others waved goodbye to the crowd who were seeing them off on the shore, and then sailed away.

This trip to sea was Zheng He's seventh mission to the West, and also the last time. Zheng He died of illness on the way back.After that, due to Japanese pirates' harassment and other reasons, the Ming Dynasty issued a ban on seas.

A few months later, the fleet came to a certain place in Nanyang. Yang Qiuchi's family broke up with Zheng He and settled here.

The Yang family is as rich as an enemy country, and no one can match it, buying land and houses, and doing business.Yang Qiuchi used his ability to help the local government solve the case, and his reputation spread far and wide. Because of his proficiency in solving cases, everyone in Nanyang knows everyone.And the men and women of the Yang family are all highly skilled in martial arts, especially Liu Ruobing and Song Yun'er, who are not only beautiful, but also have unrivaled martial arts skills.

The Yang family has a lot of money, so of course the business is booming, and they also help the poor and the poor, and make good friends.Yang Tashan often led a group of martial arts masters such as Nan Gongxiong to control dozens of strong ships and guns, often raided Japanese pirates and pirates, and rescued robbed fishermen. He was called a living Bodhisattva.
