Chapter 719 Pirate Leader
Chapter 719 Pirate Leader
When Zheng Chenggong heard this, he knew that he would die young and the outcome would not be very good.
Ban Chao also looked at Zheng Chenggong with sympathy.
"What Senior Lin Zexu said is true. Everything will change after I appear, right?" Li Wu raised his chin with a little pride.
Suddenly, there was a loud thunder outside, which scared Mr. Li.
No, why was there thunder suddenly at this time? It felt like she was going to be struck by lightning because she had told a lie.
Ban Chao and a few others laughed unkindly, and it was inexplicably funny to see the little fairy looking like he was struck by lightning.
The ancestors in front of the sky curtain also laughed, and many people felt scared.
Especially those who have done something bad would be really afraid of thunder.
"No, what's wrong with the weather? Am I lying? Why is there a sudden thunder? I'm scared to death," Li Wu patted her chest. She was scared to death. There was a sudden thunder and it was very loud.
"Little immortal, it might be a coincidence, haha, coincidence," Lin Zexu laughed twice.
"Of course, the little immortal would not tell lies. Your appearance, little immortal, has indeed changed so many things," Zheng Chenggong said. After the appearance of the little immortal, every dynasty has undergone earth-shaking changes, especially those who have been on the list, mentioned by the little immortal, or talked about in the barrage, many talents have been reused.
Li Wu nodded proudly, "That's what I said."
"Now that we have finished talking about Elder Ban Chao's deeds, isn't it time to drink?" Lin Zexu said. They looked at each other and agreed. Indeed, it was time to drink.
So the four of them raised their glasses and drank.
As he spoke words of praise to Ban Chao, he made Ban Chao blush again, and the corners of his mouth never turned down.
"Now let's talk about your deeds, Senior Zheng Chenggong.
Well, actually, Senior Zheng Chenggong, you are of Chinese and Japanese descent, but this does not prevent you from becoming a national hero." Although she hated the easy life, Zheng Chenggong was not an easy-going person!
He is Chinese!!!
Lin Zexu was not surprised at all, as he had known about it before.
Ban Chao looked at Zheng Chenggong with some surprise. Is this the good life that the immortal talked about?
But although it is surprising, it is not surprising.
The ancestors in front of the sky were also stunned. Ever since they knew of Xiao Rizi's existence and what he had done, they hated him immensely, and the little immortal was the same.
I didn't expect that Zheng Chenggong actually had half of his blood from the Xiaori people. No, the immortal didn't say anything. Zheng Chenggong was able to survive in later generations and was called a national hero, which shows that he was a good person.
"Indeed," Zheng Chenggong smiled, "Little Immortal, I am from the Ming Dynasty!"
He was a Ming Dynasty person, a Chinese, not a person of the ordinary people. He also hated the ordinary people for killing so many of their compatriots.
"Yes, yes, a Ming Dynasty man," Li Wu nodded, "Then shall I continue?"
Zheng Chenggong nodded. He couldn’t choose his birth, but he could choose his future path, right?
"Senior Zheng Chenggong, your real name is Zheng Sen, also known as Fusong, with the courtesy name Mingyan and the pseudonym Damu.
You were born in the humble town of Hirado. Your father, Zheng Zhilong, was the biggest pirate leader along the coast of Southeast Asia in the late Ming Dynasty.
You lived with your mother in a small town until you were six years old.
In 1623 AD, your father Zheng Zhilong was surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. Senior Zheng Chenggong, you and your mother were brought back to the Ming Dynasty by your father and lived in Fu'an, Quanzhou, Fujian.
While studying there, he began to receive Confucian education.
In 1638 AD, Zheng Chenggong, who passed the imperial examination, became one of the "stipend students" in Nan'an County.
In 1644 AD, Mr. Zheng Chenggong was sent to Nanjing to study.
Later, you entered the Imperial College in Nanjing for further studies. At that time, your father Zheng Zhilong also hired famous scholars from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to teach you, Zheng Chenggong.
You will never guess who it is," Li Wu said with some pride.
Zheng Chenggong didn't say anything. He had never expected the other party to be that kind of person.
How could he explain this? After all, he had been taught knowledge, so he wouldn't say anything.
It just made him a little disappointed.
The ancestors in front of the sky curtain began to guess, especially those who lived in the same period as Zheng Chenggong. There were many famous scholars in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas. If they guessed one by one, they would be able to guess it, right?
"He is the one I mentioned before, ahem, Qian Qianyi. He is really knowledgeable," Li Wu nodded affirmatively. Although he was afraid of death, who would want to die when facing matters of life and death?
Ban Chao and Lin Zexu widened their eyes. They didn't expect it to be Qian Qianyi. They remembered Qian Qianyi too well. Ever since the immortal said that if their scalp itched, the water would be too cold, they had remembered this person and could not forget him at all.
"This really surprised me. It shows that Qian Qianyi is indeed very talented in literature," Ban Chao also said. Although he was not a good person, he looked down on those who were afraid of death.
Zheng Chenggong also nodded without saying anything more, as the more he said, the more mistakes he would make.
The ancestors in front of the sky never expected that it was Qian Qianyi!
Qian Qianyi himself didn't want to talk. He was so devastated that he didn't want to talk. Now he was ridiculed whenever he went out. His former good friends looked at him as if he were trash, as if he were some disgusting thing.
His family also stayed away from him, and people mocked him from time to time in the barrage of comments.
Fortunately, his reputation has improved a little bit now. He taught Zheng Chenggong, a national hero, and the little immortal also affirmed his talent.
Seeing this, Qian Qianyi's other friends came to visit him one after another.
What is this stigma?
The descendants of Confucius are the same, they have been submitting to the emperor for generations.

Zheng Chenggong just nodded.
"In the same year, Li Zicheng, the King of Rebellion, conquered Beijing and Emperor Chongzhen committed suicide on Coal Hill.
Senior Zheng Chenggong, your father, Zheng Zhilong, supported Emperor Longwu to ascend the throne in Fuzhou.
Emperor Longwu liked you, Zheng Chenggong, very much and gave you the surname of the country. Your name was changed from Zheng Chenggong to Zhu Chenggong!
In the past, being granted the national surname was a big deal, and it represented more than just an honor. It shows that Emperor Longwu really likes you, Senior Zheng Chenggong," Li Wu sighed, otherwise he would not have granted you the national surname.
Ban Chao looked at Zheng Chenggong in surprise again. He did not expect that this man was so favored by the emperor that he was even given the national surname. As for the matter of bestowing surnames, the emperor would not often give surnames to his ministers casually.
Usually, only those who have made significant contributions to the country can be given the national surname.
"It's okay, it's okay," Zheng Chenggong just smiled. This time, their Ming Dynasty would definitely not allow that foreign race to settle in the Central Plains!
He just couldn't believe that with so many people helping them, the Ming Dynasty couldn't be restored. He vowed to never surrender!!!
"What do you mean 'it's okay'? The country's surname was directly given to you. I'm a little envious," Ban Chao looked at Zheng Chenggong with a sparkling look. This really made him envious.
Not to mention Ban Chao, the other ministers in front of the sky curtain were also envious.
