After hearing this, Lord Fenglin immediately became excited and asked, "Who are you going to look for?"
"My Lord, many of the Ming dynasty's important officials and nobles have businesses in Korea. As long as we offer them enough benefits, they will be willing to help us. Chen Facai of the Tongxing Tianxia Trading Company is one such person. I can go find him."
"So it's this person." Lord Fenglin's face grew serious. After thinking for a moment, he said, "This person was good friends with Park Jung-yang before. Would he be unwilling to help us?"
"Great Prince, Park Jung-yang is dead now," Lin Dechang said with a smile, "He is in urgent need of someone to help him. Is there anyone in the entire Joseon Dynasty more suitable than the Great Prince?"
"In that case, go ahead." Lord Fenglin thought for a moment and nodded.
"I will definitely not let the prince down!" Lin Dechang said with a serious face.
Lin Dechang is gone.
Lord Fenglin looked at Zhao Chenqi and asked, "How confident do you think he is?"
Zhao Chenqi thought for a moment and said, "I think what he said makes sense. The merchants in Ming Dynasty will be willing to help us, but I'm afraid they'll ask for a high price. Your Majesty needs to think it over carefully."
"Don't worry about that." Lord Fenglin waved his hand and said, "As long as they can help, I'm willing to give them some money."
Zhao Chenqi nodded and said nothing more.
If this aspect is not a problem, then other aspects will be even less of a problem.
In Seoul, North Korea, rumors were rife, and the people were in a state of panic. For a moment, no one knew who would win or lose, and Zheng Xuhong was thrust into the spotlight.
Ming Dynasty Embassy.
Song Xiang was grinding ink for Zhang Yu while chatting with him. "Our people have sent news that Lord Fenglin is ready to take action, and Chen Facai has also been contacted. I believe there will be results soon. Now we just need to ask them to contact Zheng Xuhong, hoping to make a breakthrough with Zheng Xuhong."
Song Xiang spoke calmly, as if she was discussing something unimportant. That kind of casualness and comfort was rare.
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Zheng Xuhong is in a precarious situation right now, so he should agree. There's another thing here. Are the nails we planted around Zheng Xuhong usable now?"
Nodding, Song Xiang said, "It should be about time."
"That's good." Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Tell them not to make things too obvious. Just let Zheng Xuhong have a little doubt in his heart, that's enough. If we bring the topic up, he will not believe it."
"I understand." Song Xiang also nodded and said, "This matter will be handled well."
Zheng Xuhong's home.
Zheng Xuhong has been incredibly anxious these past two days. She hasn't had a single good day since the incident. The news has spread like wildfire, and no one knows who's behind it.
Zheng Xuhong already understood in her heart that from Park Jung-yang's death to now, everything was arranged by someone.
At this time, a man walked in from outside, came directly to Zheng Xuhong and said, "Sir, are you still awake?"
Zheng Xuhong raised her head and glanced at the person who came. She smiled bitterly and said, "I can't sleep in the current situation. I'm worried that I might end up like Zhang Fu."
"Definitely not." The man said with a smile.
This person was none other than Zheng Xuhong's aide, Li Feng. He was a very talented and capable man. He had worked for Zheng Xuhong a lot over the years, and his advice was very useful. Over the years, Zheng Xuhong trusted him very much.
"Sir, why are you here so late? Is there anything I can help you with?" Zheng Xuhong looked at Li Feng and asked slowly.
"There's someone outside asking to see you." Li Feng said with a smile, "I believe you won't be able to guess who it is."
"Oh? That piques my interest." Zheng Xuhong said with a smile, "Would anyone still come to my house at this time? Logically, shouldn't they stay away from me?"
"That's not right." Li Feng said with a smile: "Although you are now in dire straits, and people in the world are often foolish and always want to add icing on the cake; but there are always smart people, and there are many who will help you in times of need."
"That's unexpected. I wonder who you are talking about, sir?" Zheng Xuhong asked with a smile.
"Lin Dechang." Li Feng said with a teasing look on his face.
Zheng Xuhong frowned and then said, "Who is this person? I've never heard of him."
Shaking his head, Li Feng smiled and said, "I don't know either. But the invitation this person got is from Lord Fenglin's residence. Has Lord Zheng thought of it?"
Zheng Xuhong's eyes narrowed and the smile on her face faded.
Prince Fenglin, this person is very sensitive in North Korea now.
With the eldest son unable to return to the Ming Dynasty, the other princes were already eyeing the throne, or rather, eager to take it. This Prince Fenglin had always kept a low profile. However, despite his low profile, his status was clear: he was the most outstanding of the current king's adult sons, and the second oldest. If the crown prince could not return, Prince Fenglin would be the most likely to become king.
What is he doing here at this time?
"Is there anything wrong?" Zheng Xuhong looked up at Li Feng and asked.
Li Feng shook his head and said with a smile: "No. But coming here at this time should be a timely help. Our great lord is quite interesting."
"I heard he was very close to Park Jung-yang a while ago." Zheng Xuhong frowned and asked, "Is he here to make some demands?"
"No." Li Feng shook his head and said, "Those old antiques of the Elders will not compromise. I guess they are celebrating now, thinking of how to use the Ming Dynasty to pressure the king to deal with you."
