Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 607: The Difficulties of a Cheap Dad

In the twelfth lunar month of last year, Geng Jimao fell ill. After diagnosis and treatment, Lang Zhong from the former Jingnan palace said that the prince had contracted the cold. 【Read the latest chapter】

Wind-cold disease can be serious or mild, but generally it depends on the age and physical condition of the person to determine the severity of the disease. For the elderly and infirm, this cold can kill you, but Geng Jimao is in his prime, and his body has always been strong. He can draw a bow when he mounts a horse, and dance a knife when he dismounts. Therefore, it stands to reason that this little cold will not kill the able-bodied Geng Jimao, but Geng Jimao's disease has not improved. In the first few days, I could still hold on, but later, I was bedridden and had to take medicine soup every day. Not only that, but he often fell into a coma, and said some scary and strange things in his dreams, which made the servants who served him tremble.

After Geng Jimao's death, all the servants of the palace who served him were transferred out by Xiang Rong, the former second-in-command, who removed the slave status and resettled the property and houses to Xiangshan County. No one dared to ask.

In name, Geng Jimao came back on his own initiative. At the beginning, Zhou Shixiang sent a petition to the Yongli court based on the plan of finding a prince for himself. According to the rules, the Yongli court should continue to canonize Geng Jimao as the county king of Daming. When the scholar Guo Zhiqi came to Guangdong last year, he also made a special trip to visit Geng Jimao in the palace of Jingnan. In his speech, he also mentioned the matter of making Geng Jimao the king of the county. However, after Guo Zhiqi returned to Kunming, he was nervous because of the war. In addition, he could not ask for the title of king for Zhou Shixiang. The county king of Daming, where is Zhou Shixiang, the hero of Guangdong who was awarded the title of Duke of Yue?

His own descendant Fujin was occupied by Zhou Shixiang, and he was imprisoned in the palace. In the past, his subordinates could not see him even if they wanted to. Geng Jimao was like a beast trapped in a cage. When Zhou Shixiang and Chaohui fought back to Guangzhou, Geng Jimao personally stepped forward to lead the horse for him, which can be called waiting on the horse before the saddle. Zhou Shixiang was moved by this forbearance, but it also brought him death.

Geng Jimao obviously did not die of illness, but was poisoned. The murderer is the second steward of the Jingnan palace, the current chief steward of the military commander's palace, Xiang Rong. Of course, who is the messenger behind the scenes does not need to be said.

Geng Jimao didn't know that his forbearance did not bring him good luck, but brought him the calamity of death. He has been covering up his inner anger in the Jingnan palace, forcibly suppressing the anger that can burn his whole body, so that he can wait for the canonization of the Yongli regime. The recognition of the Yongli court and the king's rank are very important to Geng Jimao, because that is his amulet and his chance to make a comeback.

A man can be without a wife for a day, but how can he be without authority for a day?

Geng Jimao waited madly, however, he couldn't wait for the news from Yunnan, and he could imagine the depression in his heart. As a result, a small wind chill actually made Jingnan King Yi, who was in his prime, sick.

Although he didn't want to see Geng Jimao, the second or fifth boy, after Zhou Shixiang left, Song Xianggong, who was in charge of Guangdong affairs, always had to do something. At the beginning of the year, Duke Xiang of Song sent people to ask good doctors to visit Jingnan Wangfu to diagnose and treat Geng Jimao, but the conclusion was the same as that of the gentlemen who Geng Jimao brought from Liaodong in Jingnan Wangfu. Chang, the so-called disease has reached the anointed, and the technique of gold and stone has been difficult to return to heaven.

What the famous doctors said was euphemism, but Song Xianggong understood that it meant that Geng Jimao could not live. The time given by the teachers was at most three months. In the end, it was only two months. Geng Jimao died of illness. He died in the middle of the night, in front of his wife, Shi Yuanling. After death, he closed his eyes.

Shi Yuanling entrusted Duke Xiang of Song to send a letter to Zhou Shixiang in February. In the letter, he mentioned that she was a wife, but her husband was seriously ill and contracted the bed, so she should return to the palace to serve her husband on the side of the sick bed. The husband is seriously ill and the wife takes care of it. This is human nature. Zhou Shixiang is not an unreasonable person.

When Shi Yuanling returned to the Jingnan Palace, Geng Jimao was speechless. Seeing his wife coming back, his eyes flickered, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. Shi Yuanling did his duty as a wife, serving by Geng Jimao day and night.

After Geng Jimao's death, Shi Yuanling cried a lot, but then he summoned everyone in the palace as the heir to Fu Jin, and asked them to arrange a funeral for Geng Jimao according to the rituals of the Manchu king.

Guangdong has been restored, and Geng Jimao's name is Laitou, which is actually a surrender. Shi Yuanling and a woman want to hold a funeral for Geng Jimao in the manner of a Manchu prince, which caused a lot of discussion outside. After Song Xianggong knew about this, he did not stop it, as long as the treasury allocated 3,000 taels of silver for Shi Yuanling's use.

Song Xianggong did not object, but some people objected.

Although Geng Zhongde and other old generals in Jingnan have doubts about Geng Jimao's death, but the person is already dead, and the suspicion is useful. Is it possible to bring people back to life? The reason why they objected to Shi Yuanling's funeral in the manner of a Manchu king was because they wanted to obtain a posthumous name for Geng Jimao.

Although Geng Jimao is dead, his two sons are still alive.

Shi Yuanling held a funeral for Geng Jimao with the ceremony of the Manchu vassal king, but the Qing court had clearly ordered the world to cut off Geng Jimao's King of Jingnan. This funeral was a bit nondescript. This is secondary, the important thing is to do it this way, what about Geng Jingzhong and his younger brother Geng Zhaozhong?

Obviously, it is impossible for the Qing court to let Geng Jingzhong inherit any king of Jingnan, but the Ming Dynasty has a successor.

Geng Zhongde reported the mourning in Yuanzhou, the old future of the Jingnan vassal, so that Zhou Shixiang could have a say about the name of Geng Jimao. Geng Zhongde's opinion is that Geng Jimao should be awarded the title of the Ming Dynasty's prince, so he died, and his son Geng Jingzhong should take the title. It doesn't matter what the title is.

Regarding the death of Geng Jimao, Zhou Shixiang first expressed his sadness to Geng Zhongde, and then spread his hands and said a word to Geng Zhongde. This is very plain. It means that I, Zhou Shixiang, are only Xingpingbo, and that boy Geng Jingzhong still wants to be king?

However, Geng Zhongde proposed that the Yongli court had named Zhou Shixiang as a prince. Zhou Shixiang smiled even more at this matter. There was news from Annan that Yongli had named him a prince, but after all, no one had read the imperial decree, so This is true for now. Furthermore, if Geng Zhongde wants Geng Jingzhong to confer the title of the king, the premise is that the Yongli court will give Geng Jimao the title, but now the court does not know where it is, how to do this? And is this possible?

In the end, Geng Zhongde Daoming's true intention is that no matter what the Yongli court thinks about Geng Jimao who is "coming back", and no matter where the Yongli court is now~www.NovelMTL.com~ Zhou Shixiang, as the real master of Guangdong and Guangxi, should give Geng Jimao an explanation.

The other meaning in Geng Zhongde's words is that Zhou Shi quite compensated for the dead Geng Jimao.

Zhou Shixiang pouted, this is really hard to say, what he did to Shi Yuanling was not authentic, and he became Geng Jingzhong's cheap father. Now that the real father told him to kill someone again, it seems that he should make up for it.

"Gui Yibo" was a title proposed by Zhou Shixiang to Geng Jimao, and he agreed with Geng Jingzhong to appoint this title. This is Zhou Shixiang's biggest step backward. Giving Geng Jingzhong a Gui Yibo is for his mother's sake.

Zhou Shi reiterated to Geng Zhongde that this Gui Yibo was only sealed by his own power, and if the court did not recognize it, he would quit.

Geng Zhongde knows exactly what the Yongli court is like now, what Guangdong is like, and who is in charge. As long as Zhou Shixiang gave this Xingyi Bo, is he afraid that Zhu Youlang, who doesn't know where he is, will not object? Besides, Zhou Shixiang is now His Highness King Qi, and the whereabouts of the emperor is unknown, and it is no big deal for His Royal Highness to grant an earl on his behalf.

The matter of Geng Jimao ended with Gui Yibo. Later, Zhou Shixiang proposed to make Geng Zhongde the town general of the newly built 14th town. (To be continued.)
