Fish swimming around the world

"Age, distance?" Jiang Fan sneered, "Narrow, people pay attention to fate. Ever since Sisi invited me to eat the first bowl of wonton noodles, I have identified this girl. To tell you the truth, she has already After living in my palace for three years, everyone in Yangdu knows that this little girl is my adopted sister, of course, it’s up to you to believe it or not.”

"How to believe..." Zheng Lin directly concluded that this statement was nonsense.

"Your Highness... If you want the Zheng family, you want the Zheng family. Find other excuses."

At this moment, Zheng Lin felt that Jiang Fan was playing a trick on him.

Jiang Fan looked at him: "Tsk tsk, no one believes me when I tell the truth. What's the matter? Forget it, since you want to hear it, I'll tell you the other two reasons. Is this the second one..."

He slowly drank a cup of tea and said: "You have been implicated. When you are doing business, there is nothing wrong with looking for allies. It's a pity that you are jumping up and down, looking for my enemies. Tell me, what should I do in your place?"

Zheng Lin was stunned for a moment, then frowned tightly: "How dare you ask the prince for advice."

Jiang Fan waved his hand: "I am also very tight on time, so there is no need to tell you too much, but you remember that the Demon Palace, the Xie family, the Wang family, and the Sea Dragon King are all among them, especially..."

He squinted at Zheng Lin and said, "Zhang Yi."

Zheng Lin was still frowning, but when he heard the word Zhang Yi, his expression suddenly changed.

Jiang Fan looked at his expression: "It seems that the Zheng family leader is somewhat aware of it."

"Your Majesty... what does Prime Minister Qilin have to do with my Zheng family? You are trying to incriminate me, why bother!"

"Hey, do you still want to be tough?"

Jiang Fan seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "Zheng Lin, it seems that you have not understood the situation. I have made such a big move. To put it bluntly, I want to take down the Zheng family. What is in front of you is no longer power or not." , it’s about survival. Do you understand what I said?”

The corners of Zheng Lin's eyes twitched quickly: "Your Majesty wants to kill me? I am..."

Jiang Fan waved his hand: "No need to reveal your identity to me. In my eyes, you are just a thief seeking power and usurping the throne. Killing or not killing is a matter of thought. Now, you only have one chance to survive, which is to reveal Zhang Yi's secret base." Where is it?"

When he said this, Zheng Lin's eyes became horrified. Even though it was only for a moment, Jiang Fan could see it and he knew it.

But Zheng Lin did not respond directly: "What does the matter of Prime Minister Zhang have to do with Zheng Lin? I still want to hear the prince's third reason."

Jiang Fan looked at him with interest and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, let me continue to make up... for you. This is the third one..."

He held his chin and pondered for a while before shaking his head in annoyance: "Okay, I can't make it up any more. I just want the Zheng family."

This is really true. For the grand strategy of unifying the world and for the future voyage, he will hold the Zheng family tightly in his hands.

Zheng Lin felt a chill in his heart. He wanted the Zheng family... why? It seems meaningless, both geographically and historically. He crossed Qin, Xia, and Chu to plot a family isolated from the world. What on earth was he thinking?

He couldn't guess, but he knew very well that the young man in front of him must not be treated as a young man. Although Zheng Lin had rarely traveled inland, his name was still well known. This was a country that was feared by all the five countries, and even the Holy Land dared to What a weird thing.

It is inevitable that such a strange person will behave strangely, but there is a high chance that he will not tell himself the reason behind it.

Jiang Fan seemed to see through his thoughts: "No need to make random guesses. You don't need to know the reason, but you need to know that you are here."

Zheng Lin couldn't help but sneer: "The prince finally told the truth, but my subordinates really don't understand, why can't I, Zheng Lin?"

Jiang Fan said: "Because the first two points are not enough, I don't like people with criminal records. Come on, tell me, do you want to save your own life, or do you want to keep Zhang Yi's secret?"

Zheng Lin's mind sank to the end. It was clear that the other party did not want to discuss cooperation. Indeed, they had the little princess of the Zheng family in their hands, and she was also a sworn sister. She was a hundred times more trustworthy than a rebellious boy like himself.

When he thought of this, Zheng Lin suddenly said: "Zheng is very interested. It is true that Sisi is His Highness's adopted sister."

Jiang Fan didn't seem to expect that he suddenly mentioned this, and immediately said seriously: "Seriously."

Zheng Lin said slowly: "Then Zheng will change the conditions. I don't know about Prime Minister Zhang's matter, but I can exchange Zheng's life alone. I don't know what your Highness wants."

When Jiang Fan heard this, he immediately became interested, "Oh, I still have a trump card, tell me."

"Zheng Siqi." Zheng Lin said flatly.

Jiang Fan was stunned: "Zheng Siqi, is Sisi's missing brother in your hands?"

"Exactly." Zheng Lin said calmly: "One life for another, of course, if His Highness really cares about this adopted sister."

Jiang Fan held his chin and looked him up and down: "I'm looking down on you...you're waiting here to try to get rid of me."

Zheng Lin was just very calm: "The conditions are very simple, let me go, and I will return Zheng Siqi to you."

Jiang Fan looked at him with a half-smile, then suddenly burst into laughter.

Zheng Lin frowned slightly: "Why is the prince laughing?"

Jiang Fan shook his head: "I was laughing at you. You have said that I only used Zheng Siyi, but I also used his brother to negotiate terms. It's interesting. I didn't think about it. Is it easier to control an eight or nine-year-old child or an adult? Are you manipulative?"

Zheng Lin slowly exhaled: "As expected, it seems that Zheng is in doom."

Jiang Fan was a little confused: "What did Zhang Yi give you? Is it worth working so hard for?"

Zheng Lin fell silent and remained silent for a long time. Jiang Fan was not in a hurry and drank tea slowly by himself.

After a long time, Zheng Lin picked up the teacup and drank it all, with a little madness in his eyes: "Do you think that I, Zheng Lin, am born to rebel? Although my brother Zheng Hao and I have different opinions, we are not so close to killing each other!"

His eyes became a little red: "It was Zhang Yi, the great prime minister, who secretly stirred up trouble and sowed discord, and finally made me have to rebel. In order to control Zheng, he also detained 33 members of my family. How can I explain it!"

Jiang Fan was really surprised.

He had imagined that the relationship between Zhang Yi and the Zheng family could be cooperation, or it could be exploitation, and there was also a weak possibility that it was coercion.

But from what Zheng Lin said, it was obvious that the weakest possibility had become a reality.

"Is this true?" Although Jiang Fan had been mentally prepared, he still found it incredible.

Zheng Lin's breathing was disordered. "Zhang Yi has been plotting against the Zheng family since 20 years ago. People only know that he avoided his father and kept a low profile, but no one knows how much preparation he made behind the scenes. I don't know why my Zheng family fell into his eyes. He took advantage of the disagreement between my brother and me, set up a series of traps, and sowed discord. In the end, I had no way to defend myself. I had to survive! So I could only follow Zhang Yi's plan and overthrow my brother to take the throne. Do you think I won't be in pain and helpless? I, Zheng Lin, may seem to be in a good position, but in fact I am just a chess piece!"
