Biography of King Zheng of Runan: the Iron-Blooded and Loyal Man Who Protected Song Zuo

During the Xiande period of the later Zhou Dynasty, Zheng En, an oil press man from Jujube Village outside Bianliang City, used his brute force and sincerity to punish the village bullies with his bare hands. However, he was framed and forced to leave his hometown. Before the fall of the horse in Taihang, he uprooted a tree to fight off the bandits and rescued the green-shirted counselor Zhao Kuangyin. The two hit it off. In the Zuixian Tower in Yecheng, he married Jinlan with Chai Rong, who had the world in mind, and they embarked on a journey in troubled times. From the death-defying vanguard who attacked the grain-burning road in Jinyang at night to the decisive figure in Chenqiaoyi's defense of Bianliang, Zheng En believed in "protecting the people and peace of the world". However, due to his upright temperament, he was framed by the Han brothers and sisters at the Lantern Festival banquet. He died tragically under the sword of his sworn brother Zhao Kuangyin, leaving only his mother's blood-stained peace charm and his last words "Second brother protect the people". Tao Sanchun, Zheng En's wife, was originally the jewel in the eye of Yingtianfu regiment training envoy, and her martial arts skills were as good as those of men. After hearing that her husband died tragically, she laid her body and swore an oath to lead three thousand old troops to surround the palace to demand justice. With an iron fist, she forced Zhao Kuangyin to kill Han Long and give Concubine Peach Blossom to death. When Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty personally conquered the Southern Tang Dynasty and was trapped in Shouzhou, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty dared to respond, Tao Sanchun took command in armor and went out as a "heroine to level the South". He lured the enemy into the valley and persuaded the famous generals to surrender. She wrote a legend of a female commander on the banks of the Huaihe River. She even reunited with her son Zheng Yin, whom she had not seen for seven years, during the war. Zheng Yin lost his father when he was five years old, so he lived in seclusion in Huashan with his ancestor Chen Tuan to study art. During seven years of hard training, he learned the art of spearmanship and archery with both strength and softness through the enlightenment of "drops of water piercing stone" from a child who threw a gun in anger. After coming down from the mountain, he first rescued the soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty who robbed the villagers, and then broke into the siege of Shouzhou to rescue them.
