Li Juan said,"He and I are classmates after all, and sworn brothers. Let me persuade him again." Please send him to my residence and let me supervise and deal with him. What do you think?”
Although Zheng Shixi was angry, he agreed to Li Juan's request.
Li Juan went to see Sun Ying that night.”
"Yes." Sun Ying replied.
"Could it be that you miss your hometown and want to return to Amoy?”
"How can I not miss my hometown after such a long time? However, in the current situation, the Eastcalm Kingdom was divided, and he could not return to Amoy at this time.”Sun Ying sighed.
Pang Juan expressed his sympathy and said,"Brother, you can ask for a month or two of leave from the supervisor. You can return to your hometown to visit your relatives and then come back."”
"I'm afraid that the Governor will suspect that I'm going to Zheng Jing's side and won't agree.”
"Brother, you can try tomorrow. I will plead for you. I believe the Governor will believe me.”
"Then I'll have to rely on my brother's help.”
Li Juan went to see Zheng Shixi that night and said,""I was ordered by the country supervisor to persuade Li Ying to change his mind, but not only did he not change his mind, he even resented the country supervisor. Tomorrow, he will ask for leave to return to Amoy in front of the country supervisor.”
The next day, Sun Ying went to see Zheng Shixi, but did not meet Li Juan. He thought that Li Juan was delayed by something, so he first asked Zheng Shixi for leave to return to Fujian. Unexpectedly, as soon as he spoke, Zheng Shixi flew into a rage and ordered the soldiers to arrest Sun Ying for questioning.
Seeing Sun Ying being tied up and brought into the manor, Li Juan pretended to be stunned.""I was delayed for a while because of something. I'm on my way to see the country supervisor now. Why is Li Ying tied up? What's going on?"
"Sun Ying wanted to return to Amoy and had an affair with the traitor Zheng Jing.”
Li Juan turned pale with fright and hurriedly said to Sun Ying,"Brother, don't worry. I'll immediately go to the Minister and plead for you.”
When Li Juan saw Zheng Shixi, he said to him,""Although Sun Ying was guilty of adultery with Zheng Jing, he didn't deserve to die. In my opinion, it's better to cripple him. This way, we can preserve our brotherhood and have no future troubles. What do you think?”
"We'll do as you say." Zheng Shixi agreed.
Li Juan went to see Sun Ying and said with tears in his eyes,""The Imperial Supervisor was very angry. He had already sentenced my adopted brother to death, but I begged him bitterly to spare his life. However, it was difficult to escape death. My adopted brother will be whipped a hundred times until he is disabled.”
Sun Ying sighed." I've finally saved my life. This is all thanks to my sworn brother's great kindness. I'll definitely repay my sworn brother in the future."”
Immediately, the soldiers carrying out the whipping came and took Sun Ying away. They tied Sun Ying to a wooden stake and whipped Sun Ying fiercely. Each whip was more vicious than the previous one, and each whip was aimed at Sun Ying's thigh, causing Sun Ying's skin to seep open and blood to flow all over his pants. Sun Ying kept screaming and finally fainted.
After the incident, Li Juan personally applied medicine for Sun Ying, comforted her in every possible way, and took care of her meticulously.
A month later, Sun Ying's wound healed, but he became a cripple from then on.
Li Juan was even more considerate and concerned about Sun Ying. His three meals a day were extremely sumptuous, making Sun Ying feel very apologetic. The reason why Li Juan wanted to keep Sun Ying alive was because he wanted to obtain Gui Kong's last secret message and the position of Sect Leader. He hoped that Li Ying would pass it on to him.
A servant who had eavesdropped on Sun Ying and knew the inside story secretly told Sun Ying the inside story when he saw Sun Ying's pitiful situation. When Sun Ying heard this, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head. Sun Ying was completely disheartened. He didn't expect his sworn brother Li Juan to be so vicious…
The next day, Sun Ying suddenly screamed in front of the guards and fainted on the ground. He vomited, his eyes rolled back, and his limbs trembled. When she woke up, she was in a daze and angry for no reason. She cried and cursed in her delirium.
The guard hurriedly reported to Li Juan. Li Juan hurriedly ran over and saw Sun Ying's face covered in vomit. It was a tragic sight. He then crawled on the ground, kowtowed, and begged for mercy. He laughed loudly, looking completely insane.
Li Juan suspected that Sun Ying was pretending to be crazy, so he ordered people to lock him up in the pigsty. Sun Ying's body was covered in pig manure, and her hair was disheveled. She rolled around in the manure of the pigsty, and the stench soared to the sky. She cried and laughed.
Li Juan sent someone to secretly deliver food to Sun Ying at night when there was no one around. That person said,"I am a servant in the residence. I know that you have been wronged. I really sympathize with you, so I specially brought something for you to eat.”
Sun Ying knocked over the food with a single palm and cursed loudly,"Damn you, are you trying to poison me?”
The man was so angry that he picked up the pig manure and gave it to him. Sun Ying took it and stuffed it into her mouth as if it was delicious.
"Sun Ying is really crazy," the man reported to Li Juan.”
Li Juan believed that Sun Ying had really gone mad, so he expelled Sun Ying from the Li Residence. Sun Ying bribed the fishermen and sneaked into the city on a fishing boat to join Zheng Jing, the Prince of Yanping. Chen Yonghua, Zheng Jing's military counselor, appreciated Sun Ying's tricks and kept him by his side.
In order to remove the threat of the Qing army, Zheng Jing proposed to join the Qing Dynasty's tribute and negotiate with Emperor Kangxi. Emperor Kangxi said,"Zheng Jing is a man of Heaven."」So he stopped fighting with Zheng Jing. Zheng Jing took advantage of the truce to attack Taiwan on the first day of November. The warships of the Amoy Army were densely packed as they passed through the Taiwan Strait and landed in Taiwan from Anping Harbor.
Li Juan swore to fight Zheng Jing's army to the death. So he led his troops to attack Zheng Jing's master.
Chen Yonghua set up an ambush outside Pingan City and sent an army to surround Zheng Shixi's army. In the battle, Huang Zhao was shot dead by arrows, and the rest of the generals surrendered. Li Juan's sneak attack failed, and all the troops in his hands were wiped out. He barely escaped with his life. After Zheng Jing's victory, his army entered Anping County, executed Xiao Gongchen and the others, and put Zheng Shixin under house arrest in Xiamen, ending the internal strife in Dongning Dynasty.
From then on, Li Juan and Sun Ying's descendants became mortal enemies. Due to the development of the night market in Taiwan, the spirit body possession technique that the two learned from Gui Kong was applied to the night market cuisine, and gradually developed into the embryonic form of fighting cuisine.
Their descendants fought to the death for the territory of the night market, gradually forming the Northern Beidou Sect in Northern Taiwan and the Southern Dou Sect in Southern Taiwan. The Northern Beidou Sect and the Southern Dou Sect were incompatible with each other, and they continued to fight until now...
