    Deng Fuzun married his sister, and Ding Shenrong married his wife. This was a sensational event in Suzhou and a good story.  Of course, no one can know what the inside story is.

    Ding Yunyi was thinking about Taiwan and did not dare to stay long.

    Deng Muzhi's goal was achieved, so he no longer wanted to stay.  He had already prepared everything and took a group of gentry and common people to see him off in person.

    Ding Yunyi was a member of the cavalry, and it was inconvenient to take his female relatives with him, so he arranged for his new wife, Deng Lianyu, to take the waterway to Fujian under the protection of several soldiers.

    It¡¯s just that Chen Yuanyuan refused to take the waterway no matter what, and wanted to go with Ding Yunyi no matter what. Ding Yunyi went with her and let several of her maids take the waterway while she walked with him.

    He found a set of men's clothes for her to put on and let him blend in with the brothers.  Chen Yuanyuan leads a horse, poses, and mixes in a group of soldiers. Who would notice that this is Chen Yuanyuan, who caused a sensation in Suzhou back then?

    Deng Muzhi and a group of gentry sent Ding Yunyi three miles away from Suzhou, and then reluctantly said goodbye.

    Thinking that he was about to return to Taiwan, Ding Yunyi was in a happy mood. He walked slowly for a while, and when he could no longer see the people seeing him off, he called out: "Brothers, let's go home!"

    The brothers shouted loudly.

    "Yuanyuan, come on, let's go home!"

    As soon as Ding Yunyi finished speaking, Chen Yuanyuan cheered.  Ding Yunyi pulled her onto the horse and placed her in front of him. The faint fragrance rushed into his nose, and along with the fresh morning air, it made people feel relaxed and happy.

    After spending so many days together, although they have not officially married yet, Ding Yunyi only feels like staying with Chen Yuanyuan.  It is much more comfortable than staying with his serious wife Deng Lianyu.

    Chen Yuanyuan is considerate and considerate. No matter what unhappy things happen with her, they will disappear without a trace.

    "Yuanyuan, it's a long way to Taiwan, are you afraid?" Ding Yunyi asked in her ear.

    "I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid of anything when I'm with you." Chen Yuanyuan looked back and smiled.

    This smile is so beautiful that it makes Ding Yunyi's heart flutter.  The brothers Huangfu Yunjie and Hou Lu were close behind.  They all saw it clearly and were all fascinated by this smile.

    After all, Shen Rong still had the ability and went to Suzhou.  Not only did he marry a wife, but he also brought back such a stunning woman who could drive men crazy.

    Chen Yuanyuan is only thirteen years old this year. Although a thirteen-year-old woman in this era is no longer young, Ding Yunyi is still a little girl in her heart.  The question is, if she can be so captivating with her smile at the age of thirteen, how can it be done when she is two or three years older?

    Ding Yunyi didn¡¯t quite believe this in the past.  Now I know it makes sense.

    Chen Yuanyuan is still too young. In two or three years, she will have to be officially adopted!

    "Brother Ding, let's go home." In Chen Yuanyuan's heart, wherever Ding Yunyi goes, it is her home.

    Ding Yunyi laughed: "Go home. Brothers, let's go home!"

    A group of war horses galloped out.  The brothers behind them all shouted, and two hundred majestic war horses rolled up the dust in the sky and a big flag.  Hunting and flying in the team:

    The brave and loyal tiger guards!

    Ding Yunyi came to the Central Plains this time, fought in Xinyang, fought bloody battles in Yingzhou, defeated the enemy in Suzhou, and shocked the world.  Before, his reputation was limited to Fujian, but now, no one in the Central Plains knows his name!

    "In Suzhou, he also laid down his foundation in Suzhou because of marrying Deng Lianyu.  The scholar later became his wife, and the scholar class in Jiangnan, Suzhou, also regarded her as one of their own.

    In addition, the 218 cavalrymen followed Ding Yunyi wholeheartedly. Although they seemed to be small in number, they laid a good foundation for Ding Yunyi to form a cavalry unit.

    In this sense, what he gained from this trip to the Central Plains far exceeded Ding Yunyi¡¯s imagination.

    "General Ding Shen has arrived in Fujian!"

    The spies came running quickly, and the spies shouted loudly.

    "Okay!" Zhang Kentang, the governor of Fujian, said loudly: "Ding Yunyi went out to fight under the holy order this time, and he was victorious. He killed the rogue bandits and collapsed after hearing the news. This is a blessing to our Fujian and it also boosted the morale of our soldiers and civilians in Fujian. Today, Japan  Fu personally brought all his colleagues to greet him, which can be regarded as a reward for him. "

    Those Fujian officials were all happy. Ding Yunyi went to the Central Plains and fought very well. His Majesty personally appointed him as a general. He was promoted so quickly. In a short period of time, he was promoted from a small patrol inspector to a third-rank official. In the future,  The future is bright, and becoming a deputy general or commander-in-chief only lasts a short time. If you don't take this opportunity to flatter him, it will be a big deal.

    The dust was swirling, and hundreds of riders appeared.In the sight of all the officials, the flag personally given by the Holy Master appeared.

    The person at the forefront of the cavalry is none other than Taiwan¡¯s General Ding Yunyi, Captain of the Shangqingchao, and General Zhaowu!

    Sitting in his arms was Chen Yuanyuan.

    Although the road from Suzhou to Fujian was long and hard, Chen Yuanyuan got along with Ding Yunyi day and night. Chen Yuanyuan did not feel that the road was difficult at all, and even wished that the road was longer.

    It¡¯s a pity that no matter how long the road is, it always ends.  Fujian has finally arrived.

    Ding Yunyi saw a large group of officials waiting in front from a distance. He was startled and quickly ordered his subordinates to stop their horses. He quietly said to Chen Yuanyuan: "You are not allowed to show off women's clothing. You must let them know. You will have to find excuses every day."  If you come to Taiwan and want to see your beauty, I will be busy all day long. "

    Chen Yuanyuan pursed her lips and smiled.

    Ding Yunyi dismounted and strode towards the Fujian officials.

    As soon as he came closer, he saw that Zhang Kentang had come to pick him up in person, and he hurriedly said: "Yun Yi is so virtuous and capable, how dare you help the commander to welcome him personally!"

    Zhang Kentang smiled and said: "Ding Shen will show his great power in the Central Plains. Everyone in Fujian will be shining with glory. Even if I came out to greet him, I feel very glorious."

    As soon as he said this, the officials behind him all came up to congratulate him.

    Among the officials, Ding Yunyi saw Zheng Zhilong at a glance.  I immediately felt relieved. Since Zheng Zhilong is here, Taiwan and Penghu must be safe and sound.

    This time when I returned to Fujian, my identity was completely different.  He is also a general, and he can be on an equal footing with Zheng Zhilong.

    "Ding Shenrong." Zheng Zhilong took the initiative to step forward with a smile.

    "Zheng Canrong."

    As soon as Ding Yunyi spoke, Zhang Kentang smiled and said: "Ding Shenrong, you can no longer call Brother Feihuang Shenrong. We just received the imperial edict. Deputy Zheng has made great contributions in suppressing bandits. He has made the coast of Fujian peaceful. He was promoted to the rank of  Vice Admiral of Fujian, Chief of the Fujian Navy!"

    Ding Yunyi was stunned.  How did Zheng Zhilong suddenly become the deputy commander-in-chief?

    Logically speaking, if he wanted to be promoted to Zheng Zhilong, he would have been promoted long ago.  Why was it that he was promoted to Fujian and the Fujian Navy at this time?

    ¡°Besides, it was you who killed Liu Xiang, you were the one who regained Taiwan, and you were the one who conquered the pirates!

    There is also the Fujian Navy of the General Section. Does this include the Hubenwei Navy?

    Didn¡¯t Chongzhen distrust Zheng Zhilong and wanted to resist him?

    With his mind spinning rapidly, Ding Yunyi suddenly understood.  Chongzhen didn't trust Zheng Zhilong, but he didn't necessarily trust himself completely and unconditionally.

    Although Chongzhen was a promising emperor, he wanted to revive the Ming Dynasty.  But he was also a very suspicious emperor, and it was impossible for him to let one person control all the military power in Fujian and other places.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of a ninth-level inspection officer, he became a third-level official, with an elite force like the Tiger Guards in his hands.  If it were Zheng Zhilong¡¯s power.  If the emperor and himself are attacked from both sides, they will become the number one military group in Fujian.

    But this is what Chongzhen least wants to see!

    Therefore, just after he was promoted to the rank of staff general, Zheng Zhilong was promoted to the deputy general, always suppressing him.  This not only allows each other to suppress each other, but also competes with Zheng Zhilong.  As equals, we must serve the court more loyally!

    Thinking of this, Ding Yunyi felt a little chilled.

    During the bloody battle in the Central Plains, although I was angry with the generals in the Central Plains, the imperial court later promoted me to an official, and it was appointed by Chongzhen himself, which made me very grateful to Chongzhen.

    But now it seems that is not the case at all. Maybe he has just been promoted, and the imperial edict to promote Zheng Zhilong has already left the capital for Fujian.

    Currently, the three parties in Fujian are confronting each other.  Zhang Kentang's governor's army, Zheng Zhilong's Fujian Navy, and his own Tiger Guards, it is impossible for any of these three families to dominate.

    Chongzhen achieved his goal.

    If his surname is not Zhu, Chongzhen will never regard him as one of his own. Unless he becomes a eunuch like Wang Chengen, there is no other way except to rely on the emperor.  Even if his surname is Zhu, can Chongzhen really trust him?

    Territory, army, with territory and army everything is possible, everything else is fake.  My own loyalty cannot earn the emperor's true trust in me!

    From this moment on, Ding Yunyi¡¯s mentality quietly changed

    Thinking of this, Ding Yunyi suddenly became calm, with a smile on his face: "His Majesty Ding Yunyi has met the deputy town. The deputy town commander commands the Fujian Navy, and all the naval forces of our Huben Guards are willing to take the lead of the deputy town!"

      "What are you talking about? Although I am your superior in name, your generals are personally appointed by the Holy Emperor. They also include Captain Qingche, General Zhaowu, who is much more powerful than me." Zheng Zhilong  Said with a smile on his face.

    But he felt a little strange. There seemed to be something different about Ding Yunyi from when he left Fujian.

    "Let's go, let's go, I've already prepared a banquet. I'll talk about it while I'm waiting for General Ding Shen to go back." Zhang Kentang said with a smile.

    A group of officials got on their horses, got on their sedans, and it was lively.

    Ding Yunyi asked his brothers to go ahead, but he deliberately fell behind and looked at Zheng Zhilong again.  Zheng Zhilong understood and quietly fell behind on the excuse that his horse was tired.

    When those officials were far away, Ding Yunyi suddenly said: "Deputy Town, do you and I have to fight to the death?"

    Zheng Zhilong was caught off guard and squinted his eyes: "What do you mean?"

    "Deputy Town, let's tell the truth today." Ding Yunyi's eyes were deep: "The Deputy Town hates me for secretly seizing Taiwan, but I think that the Deputy Town has a lot of soldiers and wealth, and it is like a big mountain pressing on me, so between you and me  Everyone dislikes everyone, and they all think of ways to kill each other and monopolize power. Is Yun Yi right? "

    Zheng Zhilong didn¡¯t know why he suddenly said these words, but these few sentences truly revealed his current relationship with Ding Yunyi.

    Ding Yunyi suddenly asked: "Deputy Town, have you ever been to Taiwan in the days since I left?"

    His tone was solemn, and Zheng Zhilong hesitated for a moment: "I have sent people there, but your subordinates were very arrogant. They relied on the imperial edict to protect themselves and refused to give in at all in Taiwan. They almost clashed with Zheng Zhibao twice.  But you and I have an agreement first. Taiwan is Taiwan, and the sea is the sea. I will let you go all the way from Taiwan to Luzon."

    "Thank you, Deputy Town, for keeping your word." Ding Yunyi's tone was full of worry: "Taiwan is either mine or the deputy town's. It will be determined in the future, but there is something pressing in Yun Yi's heart that he has to say. Deputy Town.  Zhen, your and my death are coming soon!¡±

    Zheng Zhilong was shocked when he heard this: "Xiang Wen, you can't talk nonsense. The imperial court has just promoted you and me to official positions. How can you say such a thing?"

    Ding Yunyi sneered: "Is Xiong Tingbi's official higher than you and me? The Minister of the Ministry of War and the right deputy censor of the capital, he conducted a military expedition to Liaodong, but he was beheaded by the court and spread to the nine sides. Is Yuan Chonghuan's official bigger than you and me? The Ministry of War  The minister and right deputy governor of the capital, Ji Liao, ended up being cut into pieces by the imperial court. You and I are just small generals and lieutenants. It is ridiculous that you and I were promoted by the imperial court.  The official is still complacent, but he doesn't know that the disaster is approaching. "

    Zheng Zhilong became increasingly puzzled: "Xiang Wen said it more carefully."

    He had been a pirate before, and after being recruited, he lived in Fujian for a long time. He had no influence in the court and didn't know much about things in the capital. But Ding Yunyi was different.

    His father is the Minister of War, and Wang Chengen is his backer. I wonder what news he got from the capital this time.  In case something really goes against you, it¡¯s best to prepare in advance.

    Ding Yunyi¡¯s face was extremely solemn: ¡°Deputy Town, I¡¯m going to say something unpleasant, but please don¡¯t get angry. What merits did the Deputy Town have this time to be promoted to deputy general by the imperial court?¡±

    Zheng Zhilong was not angry, but fell into deep thought.

    Yes, when the imperial court made the appointment, I was at a loss. Since the victory at Liaoluowan, the Fujian Navy had not carried out any major military operations. Why would it happen that I would be promoted to an official position at this time?

    "Also, the imperial court appointed you as the commander-in-chief of the Fujian Navy, but the Holy One gave me the banner of the brave and loyal Tiger Guards. I would like to ask, is the Tiger Guards who was given the title by the Holy One a part of the Fujian Navy? Or is it?  Not coming back?" Ding Yunyi asked slowly.

    Zheng Zhilong was stunned for a while, and then gradually understood: "You mean, the court wants you and me to restrain each other?"

    He actually thought about this level before, but he was not sure.  The only thing he knew was that the imperial court was very guarded against him, never really trusted him, and used Ding Yunyi to contain him.  To be continued.  .
