Hearing Zhou Zhong ask about Zhengde, Jiao Fang and the others all showed a little wry smile, and finally Wang Qiong spoke: "Qi Qi Jianguo, Your Majesty doesn't know why this time, he walks very slowly on the road, especially after landing in Shanghai, he drinks and has fun on the road every day, and even recruits some women to accompany him, which is really a bit unorthodox, and I hope that the prison country can go to the letter to admonish it!" ”

Zhou Zhong was not surprised when he heard Zhengde's move, King Ning's rebellion hit Zhengde very hard, after all, he had always regarded King Ning as one of his relatives, but now he was betrayed by this relative, which made Zhengde, who has always attached importance to feelings, very difficult to accept, so he made so many abnormal moves.

"The royal brother is in a bad mood, it is inevitable to do some excessive things, everyone should also be considerate of him, in addition, if the imperial brother causes any trouble or loss to the place on the road, it will be compensated twice afterwards, and I will also write a letter to the imperial brother, so that he will not disturb the people too much, I believe that as long as this period of time passes, he will return to normal!" Zhou Zhong finally sighed and said.

After discussing things with the cabinet, Zhou Chong asked Wu Shan to come again, some time ago Qian Ning was dismissed from the position of commander of Jinyi Wei because of collusion with King Ning, so Wu Shan took over Jinyiwei, in fact, after Qian Ning left the capital with Zhengde, Jinyi Wei has been in charge of Wu Shan, and now it is just one more legitimate position.

"See the prince!" When Wu Shan entered the room and saw Zhou Chong, he immediately lowered his head and saluted.

"Get up, how are the guards around the imperial brother arranged?" Zhou Chong asked without raising his head, Jinyiwei was originally divided into two parts, one part was Jinyiwei in the eyes of ordinary people. Now it has undergone a thorough rectification. It has been completely detached into an intelligence agency. The other part is named General Dahan, they belong to the emperor's guard, and they usually act as a guard of honor, and they are also escorted by these people when Zhengde travels, and now Zhou Zhong is asking about the situation of General Dahan.

"Don't worry, I have arranged for many brothers who are proficient in water to follow Your Majesty, and try not to let Your Majesty go to a place where there is water, and every time Jiang Bin meets Your Majesty. There are also a few good guards in the dark, and there will be absolutely no mistakes! Wu Shan replied solemnly, although he didn't know why His Royal Highness King Zhao had asked him to arrange some brothers with superb water skills to protect His Majesty? I don't know why I asked Your Majesty not to go to the water's edge? But he only had to accept the order, and he would never say anything more than he should have asked about other things.

"Well done!" Zhou Zhong nodded with satisfaction and said, although history has been tampered with beyond recognition by him, some major historical events are still the same, such as King Ning's rebellion and Zhengde's southern tour, and Zhou Chong also knew that Zhengde was in the southern tour to Nanjing. accidentally fell into the water and died of illness, and Zhengde died very strangely. Zhengde, who has always been as strong as an ox, would fall into the water and get sick, and he was dying, and even the time of his death could not be determined, only knowing that Jiang Bin was by his side at that time, but unfortunately Jiang Bin was also killed later, and no one knew how Zhengde died.

It is precisely knowing this, so after Zhou Zhong knew that Zhengde went to Nanjing, he immediately sent many additional guards, especially some guards who were proficient in water, and they were not allowed to leave Zhengde for half a step, although Zhou Zhong didn't know if it was useful to do so, but this was the only thing he could do.

"By the way, what is happening to the Tatars in the north now, do they still have the strength to resist?" Zhou Zhong suddenly thought that Zhengde had left the northern border army, and he was worried that the Tatars would take advantage of this to cause chaos, so he asked. In the past, Jinyiwei's power was only in the Ming Dynasty, and there was not much deployment to the outside, but with Zhou Zhong's rectification of Jinyiwei, his strength has expanded to various countries around the Ming Dynasty, and even India and Egypt have their development eyeline.

"Don't worry, the Tatars have attacked my Ming army several times before, and the results are all defeated, and now the prestige of the little prince of Tatar has been reduced to the minimum, and the leaders of several big tribes have been very dissatisfied with the little prince of Tatar, and now they are discussing seizing the throne of the little prince, for this situation, our Jinyi Wei has also made some efforts from it, so the leaders of those big tribes are more confident, it won't be long before a war breaks out within Tatar, and the little prince of Tatar is also having a headache for this matter, and it is impossible to go south!" Wu Shan said confidently, the battle within the Tatars, their Jinyi Wei contributed a lot, and they were able to see this strong enemy of the Ming Dynasty being played under the palm of his hand, which made Wu Shan also feel very excited.

"Very good, Tatar under the blow of my Daming, has been declining, and I heard that the little prince of Tatar has also had a problem with his body, if the little prince of Tatar can die at this time, his sons will definitely start to compete for the throne, plus the leaders of those big tribes, then the whole Tatar will be in chaos, and my Ming will take advantage of the situation to speed up the encroachment of the grassland, I believe that it will not be long before the entire grassland will be included under the rule of my Daming!" Zhou Zhong nodded with satisfaction again when he heard this, as long as the border trouble in the north is solved, then the Ming Dynasty can go all out to open up the sea and compete with Western countries for colonies all over the world.

Next, Zhou Zhong inquired about the specific situation inside the Tatars, and then gave some instructions on the next move of Jinyiwei, in order to better cooperate with the encroachment of the Ming on the grassland, and finally asked about the Ottoman Empire, to be precise, the situation on the Suez Canal, those technical officials and entourage sent to Egypt, there are some Jinyiwei's secret agents, they are not only responsible for surveying the canal, but also to collect local intelligence, after all, with the development speed of the Ming Dynasty, it may not take many years, The Suez Canal will also be their next target, so be prepared now.

At the same time, Zhengde finally arrived in Nanjing, and as in history, when he learned that King Ning had been caught, he was very disappointed, and even a little dissatisfied with Wu Wending and others, Jiang Bin and others were very bold to arrest Wu Wending, and then snatched King Ning and other prisoners.

For Jiang Bin and others' misdeeds, Zhengde did not stop it, but he also has a sense of proportion, although Wu Wending and others were arrested, it will not be fine, at most it will be closed for a few days to relieve Zhengde's anger, and he will still be rewarded for meritorious deeds in the future, as for the captives of King Ning, Zhengde also arranged a very famous program for them, that is, the farce in history that released King Ning and then caught them personally.

Zhengde was very dissatisfied with King Ning being caught by others, because he felt that only by catching the other party in person could he be regarded as relieving his anger, but unfortunately before he arrived in Nanjing, King Ning had already been captured by Wu Wending and others, and the captives were also sent to Nanjing.

Although Zhengde was very moved by this idea, fortunately he was still a little sensible, knowing that if he really did this, he would definitely leave a big joke for the ages, so Zhengde did not completely take this suggestion, but chose a compromise with a relatively small impact.

When King Ning and other prisoners of war were sent to Nanjing, they were not immediately put in prison, but were removed from the shackles, and let them ride horses and hold weapons, and then sent to the encirclement of the Ming army, and finally Zhengde took his own personal guards, and also fought against King Ning in armor, and as a result, King Ning almost died of anger, he was not a military general, and most of the captives who were sent to Nanjing were also civilian officials, Zhengde actually wanted them to take up arms and fight, which was even more uncomfortable than killing them.

In the end, this farce naturally ended with Zhengde once again capturing King Ning and others, and then these "prisoners of war" who were personally captured by Zhengde were all sent to the prison in Nanjing, and no one was allowed to visit, except for one exception, this person was Zhu Houzhao himself.

Since King Ning and others were imprisoned in prison, Zhu Houzhao has entered the prison several times, and no one is allowed to accompany him every time, not even Jiang Bin, so no one knows what Zhu Houzhao did after entering the prison, but according to the speculation of later generations, Zhu Houzhao should have gone to see King Ning when he entered the prison, as for what did the two of them say? Did Zhu Houzhao scold King Ning and other questions? That's not something for posterity to guess.

At the end of the month when King Ning was sent to Nanjing, Zhengde ordered King Ning and others to be beheaded in Tongzhou, which was not the Tongzhou of the north, but the Tongzhou next to Nanjing, that is, the Nantong Prefecture in the later secular name, echoing the North Tongzhou next to Beijing.

After King Ning and others were beheaded, it also marked that King Ning's rebellion was completely pacified, but Zhengde did not return to Beijing immediately, but still stayed in the south to play, speaking of which he came to the south once in order to recognize Zhou Chong last time, but that time he was with the Empress Dowager Zhang, and there was something to do, so he came and went in a hurry, and there was no chance to comprehend the customs of all parts of the south.

It is precisely because of this that Zhengde stayed in Nanjing for a period of time, after swimming all over the banks of the Qinhuai River, he began to play around, and even did not plan to go back for the New Year, so he stayed in the south until September of the second year, this day Zhengde came to the area of Qingjiangpu, and on a whim, ready to fish in the pond, although the guards on both sides persuaded each other, but Zhengde insisted on not listening, and began to fish in a small boat.
