Biography
Working for Madam Lee
In 1725, Jeong was hired by the Macau-based businesswoman Lee Huiyin to aid her trading enterprise against her rival Sun, the head of the Hualien Trading Company. While Lee's ally Fuma Sukuna and the Shimazu ninja in his service attacked Sun's floating gambling hall to recover a sea log in his possession, Jeong stationed her fleet nearby in preparation to wipe out Sun's fleet.[1]
Before Sukuna and his ninja could recover the sea log, Jeong began her assault of Sun's ship, bombarding it with cannon and mortar fire.[1] As the admiral took glee in the destruction she caused, she suddenly spotted the British Assassin Edward Kenway, whom Lee had marked for death.[2]
Jeong ordered her crew to sink the ship Kenway and his companions were using to escape from the destruction of Sun's gambling den, but at that moment one of her own vessels was destroyed by the Fenghuang, the flagship of Kenway's Zhang Wei Union. Believing she stood no chance against the Fenghuang's powerful armaments, Jeong decided to allow the members of the Zhang Wei Union to escape, telling her men that they would get their chance to hunt them down soon enough.[2]
The following morning, as Jeong was exploring the wreckage of Sun's gambling den, she approached by Xiao Han and his fellow Chinese Assassins, Liu Qing and Xue Yan. Jeong aimed her pistol at them, but after Xiao Han revealed that he had acquired the sea log sought by Lee, the admiral agreed to grant the Assassins an audience with her.[2]

Jeong was subsequently present for Lee's meeting with the Chinese Assassins at the Mandarin's House, where Xiao Han proposed an alliance to find the lost Khmer city of Angkor and recover its treasure. When Xiao Han revealed his knowledge of Lee's true name and past, Jeong pointed her pistol at the Assassin, claiming she had heard enough of what he had to say. However, Lee ordered her to lower her gun and allowed Xiao Han to continue speaking. In the end, Lee agreed to ally with the Chinese Assassins and help them find Angkor's treasure so that they could overthrow the Qing dynasty.[3]
Pursuing the Fenghuang
When the members of the Zhang Wei Union left Macau to investigate a lead to Angkor's location in the Philippines, Jeong and her fleet followed them and ambushed the Fenghuang near Manila. After the Union members dropped explosive fire barrels into the water, Jeong's fleet suffered considerable damage, forcing the admiral to sail around the barrels. This divided her fleet and allowed the Fenghuang to begin sinking her ships one by one.[4]
Personality and traits
Jeong was a highly unstable and unpredictable individual, being able to switch moods from calm and collected to excited or angry almost in an instant. She also enjoyed the thrill of battle and the sight of chaos and destruction, be it caused by her or someone else. When the Fenghuang attacked her fleet, Jeong was initially excited by the prospect of facing the ship that had "wrecked havoc in the Paracels", only to immediately change her mind and allow the ship to escape so that she could hunt it down later.[2]
Despite her unpredictable nature, Jeong remained loyal to Lee Huiyin and followed her every command, making the admiral one of Lee's most important assets. When Xiao Han began to speak of Lee's sensitive past, Jeong immediately pointed her pistol at the Assassin to stop him, but Lee overruled the admiral and allowed Xiao Han to continue talking.[3]
Equipment and skills
Jeong carried on her at all times a rapier sword and a flintlock pistol.[2]
