Zheng Tao quickly brought Zheng Xian to Ling'an, but he did not see Qi Zheng in the main hall. The chamberlain deliberately told Zheng Tao that Qi Zheng was either in the garden or in the pavilion. However, every time Zheng Tao rushed over, he could not see Qi Zheng. Zheng Xian thought this was Qi Zheng's intimidation, but in Zheng Tao's eyes, it was just unreasonable.Zheng Tao came to the door of Zheng Yuan's house and waited for a while for Zheng Shi to come back. Zheng Tao looked disdainful and questioned, asking where Zheng Shi had been these days and why Zheng Shi was not around when the accident happened.
Zheng Tao then expressed his thoughts and wanted to make Jingcheng independent. If it hadn't been for Zheng Yuan before, he would have been independent a long time ago. He also stated that he was bringing troops to station outside. He did not really want to launch a mutiny, but deliberately tested Zheng Shi to get a feel for Zheng Shi's background. Zheng Shi told him that he did not see any soldiers of the Zheng family when he entered the city. Maybe the weather outside had changed when Zheng Tao was looking for Qi Zheng. Hearing this, Zheng Tao looked shocked.
When Fan Yun came back, Qi Zheng and Master Fan were having a conflict. Qi Zheng was dissatisfied that Master Fan wanted to eat his turtle, but in Master Fan's opinion, it was just a turtle and a tortoise.Fan Yun reminded the two of them that Zheng's army had already arrived at the city, but the two of them were still angry over trivial matters.But suddenly realizing that the two of them might have known about it for a long time, Mr. Fan stood up and left with a smile, admitting that what Qi Zheng was holding was the little turtle.Fan Yun looked at Qi Zheng in surprise and asked when she knew about it.
Qi Zheng wanted to eat, but Fan Yun stopped him. He kept asking Qi Zheng when he knew about it. Based on Zheng Tao's character, Qi Zheng accurately calculated that in order to increase his reputation, Zheng Tao would not come to pick up Zheng Yuan's ashes, and he also had to bring people with him to shock everyone. Therefore, he arranged for Gao Ran and Wei Ying to lead the team in advance, and intercepted the troops brought by Zheng Tao midway.
Fan Yun came to Zheng Yuan's door and wanted to pay homage, but was prevented from entering by the doorman. Zheng Shi knelt in the mourning hall and suddenly heard the sound of Hu Qin. He followed the sound and saw Fan Yun playing the sad Hu Qin not far away.This was the song that Zheng Shi wanted to practice last time. Zheng Shi hoped that Fan Yun would play another piece for him. Seeing Fan Yun playing the huqin seriously and listening to the melodies, Zheng Shi couldn't hide his sadness and drank a glass of wine.After the song ended, Fan Yun clinked glasses with Zheng Shi and told him that the first time he drank was when his mother passed away. He drank too much with his father that day, but he dreamed that his mother came back to see her.Zheng Shi was worried that Zheng Yuan would not fall asleep because he was rebellious and disobedient. Fan Yun felt that Zheng Yuan loved Zheng Shi deeply.
Zheng Shi blamed himself, seeing through Zheng Yuan's plan was all for Qi Zheng, but as a grandson, he could not help Zheng Yuan. In fact, he understood the truth, but he still couldn't help but think that if he were here, he would definitely not let Zheng Yuan die. Fan Yun thought that there was something wrong, change cannot be achieved by one person. I hope Zheng Shi can be more tolerant and not be too sad. Zheng Shi suddenly realized that Fan Yun came to persuade him because of Qi Zheng. He could not accept that Zheng Yuan died in Qi Zheng's room, but Fan Yun persuaded him to be tolerant.Zheng Shi asked Fan Yun in what capacity he was persuading. Fan Yun admitted that she was a confidant and she did not want Zheng Shi to let down Zheng Yuan. The two clinked glasses with each other in tears again.
Zheng Tao came to see Qi Zheng, told Qi Zheng about Liu Mu's death in Jingcheng, and asked for forgiveness. Qi Zheng also said that he would be buried with the etiquette of a city guard. Zheng Tao proposed the need for a new city guard. Qi Zheng knew full well that Liu Mu's death must be related to Zheng Tao.Zheng Tao said that he brought Zheng Jiajun here just to see it, and for no other purpose. Qi Zheng proposed to let Qi Jiajun and Zheng Jiajun compete together. Zheng Tao immediately agreed. Although both of them were smiling, there was an undercurrent.
Zheng Tao saw that Qi Zheng wanted to play a war of attrition for him and was determined to win the position of city lord. Zheng Shi did not want to hear more and stood up to leave. However, Zheng Tao asked for Zheng Yuan's clan leader ring, claiming to be keeping it, but Zheng Shi knew that he just wanted to win that position and lied that he did not know.Fan Yun, Qi Zheng and others are also discussing countermeasures. Fan Yun believes that if he can overwhelm the opponent on the training ground, he can take the initiative. Qi Zheng is very satisfied with Fan Yun's understanding, and Fan Yun is the one who knows others.
Gao Ran and Wei Ying secretly inquired about the enemy's situation and found that Zheng Tao's training of soldiers and horses was a bit scary, and they prepared a lot of scarecrows.Wearing Qi Jiajun's costume, the scarecrow's eyes and belly were full of food. After a whistle, an overwhelming number of birds flew over and bitten these two places. Gao Ran told Wei Ying to go back and tell Qi Zheng the situation. At this time, Wei Shisan came to find Gao Ran. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. They both smiled when they looked at each other and sent Wei Ying away together.
Zheng Tao proposed to test the formations in the training ground. On the surface, he asked Qi Zheng to stop hurting the soldiers, but in fact, his eyes were sharp and there was a smile on his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes.Qi Zheng had anticipated Zheng Tao's tactics in advance and had made preparations long ago. He cleverly broke the formation and defeated Zheng Tao's troops. At this time, on the high platform, the commander suddenly blew a whistle, and an overwhelming number of birds flew over. Zheng Tao looked proud, just to see how Qi Zheng broke the situation.
