He died. His dream of becoming emperor vanished with smoke. And Zhang Xianzhong's dream of becoming emperor vanished with smoke. Standing before Tang Tong, Zhang Xianzhong looked at the man with the faintest smile on his face. Cold sweat slowly streamed down his face. Tang Tong, like him, was a man who killed without blinking an eye. It was just that one was born with that instinct, while the other developed it through training.

Zhang Xianzhong surrendered to Tang Tong. Chen Zilong, who accepted Zhang Xianzhong's surrender, gave him no chance to recover. He simply shipped Zhang Xianzhong's army out of Ming territory and dispersed them to various colonies. Zhang Xianzhong, on the other hand, was held captive by Tang Tong. How to deal with this surrendered Zhang Xianzhong was no longer Chen Zilong's business.

"Come to think of it, you're quite a talent," Tang Tong said slowly. His face was expressionless, but he was internally pondering how to deal with Zhang Xianzhong. Since he had already surrendered, killing him was out of the question. He had to find a good job. Not to mention that Zhang Xianzhong had a close relationship with his subordinate, Dingguo. Even for the sake of lessening resistance during the future annexation of the Ming Dynasty, killing Zhang Xianzhong, who had already surrendered, was not an option. Ming officials were all cowardly and afraid of death. If they could survive, future resistance would be much smaller. This was what was meant by leading by example.

Zhang Xianzhong didn't know what Tang Tong meant by this, nor could he guess what Tang Tong was thinking from his expression. Zhang Xianzhong was under someone else's roof, so no matter how unruly he was, he couldn't act tough at this moment. He just wanted to plead for Zhang Xianzhong, so he said to Ding Guodao, "Your Highness, my adoptive father is following Gao Yingxiang and the others, so there's nothing he can do..."

"Well, Dingguo, you don't have to say anything. There's nothing much to say about what happened in the past. What will happen in the future depends on what the Great Western Emperor does. I won't play any tricks on you, Zhang Xianzhong. I tell you tomorrow, you won't have military power in the future, but I will find a job for you. In the future, you, Zhang Xianzhong, will be the president of the International Society for the Conservation of Rare Fauna and Flora. This is a very meaningful thing for mankind. I hope you can do it well." Tang Tong interrupted Dingguo. Dingguo was a man who valued loyalty. Although it was Zhang Xianzhong who sold him to Tang Tong, Zhang Xianzhong also recognized him as his adopted son. Dingguo always remembered this favor. Tang Tong was afraid that Dingguo would ask for too many favors, which would be difficult for him to handle.

Zhang Xianzhong couldn't count on Tang Tong giving him a high position and wealth at this moment. It would be best if Tang Tong didn't kill him. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will definitely get the job done."

Zhang Xianzhong had no idea what the Animal and Plant Protection Association was, but it didn't matter. He, Zhang Xianzhong, was a real man who could bend and stretch. As long as a person was alive, everything was possible. If he died, there would be no chance for anything. On the other side, seeing that Tang Tong had no intention of killing Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Xianzhong breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, since he had recognized Zhang Xianzhong as his adoptive father, he had the responsibility of a son. Zhang Xianzhong could have been unjust in the past and sold him, Zhang Xianzhong, to Tang Tong, but now Zhang Xianzhong could not be ruthless.

After bidding farewell to Tang Tong, Zhang Xianzhong took Tang Tong's appointment to the International Society for the Conservation of Rare Fauna and Flora to take up his post. After seeing the place where he worked, Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help but feel very satisfied. This place in the suburbs of Daming City, although it did not cover a large area, had a beautiful environment. There was a small building in the middle, which was very beautiful. Judging from the surrounding situation, the Prince Tang did not send anyone to monitor him, Zhang Xianzhong. Such an environment was indeed a good place for retirement.

Zhang Xianzhong walked into the building and found that although this three-story building was beautiful, it was a bit strange. Unlike ordinary people's houses, the first floor of the three floors was a long row of single rooms. Zhang Xianzhong counted and found that there were more than sixty rooms on the third floor. There were quite a few people in these rooms. Zhang Xianzhong estimated that there were several hundred people. Thinking that he still had so many subordinates, Zhang Xianzhong was even slightly happy and walked towards the building.

Zhang Xianzhong walked closer and took a look, only to see a small sign hanging on each of the rows of rooms on the first floor. Zhang Xianzhong was a rough man and didn't know many words. After looking carefully for a while, he recognized the meaning of several of the signs. One was the International Buddhist Association, one was the International Taoist Association, and another was the headquarters of the Lotus Sect. However, he didn't look at the International Society for the Conservation of Rare Animals and Flora, which Zhang Xianzhong took office as. At this time, Zhang Xianzhong, with his intelligence, knew that the association he was in was probably just a room, and he, as the president, probably didn't have many subordinates.

Zhang Xianzhong patiently asked someone and found out that the National Rare Animal and Plant Protection Association he belonged to was on the second floor. Zhang Xianzhong followed the instructions and went up to the second floor. When he saw the door, he couldn't help but feel happy.
