Zhou Zheng was thinking about Liu Liuzhe's words, and waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this for now, just stare at it."

Liu Liuzhe had no choice but to respond.

Zhou Zheng continued to be busy with his affairs. There were many problems in Nanzhili. He had to end up gradually. As long as Nanzhili completed the reform, then his reform would be half successful!

He was too lazy to get involved in the troubles in the capital, so he waited to see the changes.

The next afternoon, the news in the capital finally reached Nanzhili. For a moment, rumors were everywhere and people were in panic.

Even Lu Daqi and others couldn't sit still, so they came to Zhou Zheng to talk about him.

Zhou Zheng took a sip of tea and looked at a group of people and said, "Okay, I'll know a long time ago before you, and I know the specific situation."

Lu Daqi and others were actually guessing whether Zhou Zheng secretly took action. Seeing this, he dispelled his doubts and said, "Sir, why is this matter? Even if you defeat Yuan Fu, it would be a bargain."

Zhou Zheng did not hide it and said, "I am curious about this matter. Wait and see."

Lv Daqi was still uneasy and said, "Sir, if something really happens in the capital, we in Nanzhili will not be spared. Do you want to go back to Beijing to take charge?"

Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows and glanced at the others. Seeing that they were all looking forward to it, he immediately smiled and said, "You think that if I am in Nanzhili, I am beyond the reach of the capital? Do you think those people can do whatever they want while I am away?"

Liu Liuzhe stood aside and continued lightly: "What they can do is within the allowance of Duke Ding. They also know people, otherwise, they will be in vain!"

Lord Lu and others felt as if they had some enlightenment.

Some people understand that, indeed, there are Zhou Zheng’s soldiers inside and outside the capital. Zhou Zheng just wants to turn over the table and no one can escape!

So, no matter how those people jump up and down, before they understand Zhou Zheng’s bottom line, they can only be careful, at most they are testing and never dare to cross some bottom line!

Lu Daqi and others felt the same, and they immediately relaxed a lot.

The group of people in Nanzhili didn’t feel at ease for long. At night, I don’t know how many carrier pigeons fly over, big businessmen, big households, high-ranking officials, etc. As long as I have something to do in the capital and have the ability to arrange carrier pigeons, I almost received them!

This morning, the emperor called all the cabinet ministers, six ministers, including the chief minister Zhou Yanru, to enter the palace as long as they are in Beijing.

Then, Zhou Yanru and his followers were detained in the palace for "accomplice to rebel", and Qian Qianyi was temporarily appointed as the chief assistant!

The stable court situation has been broken for the first time since the thirteenth year of Chongzhen!

When Lu Daqi and others received the news, they immediately ran to Zhou Zheng's courtyard.

Zhou Zheng knew half an hour earlier than them. Now he was sitting in the pavilion, looking at the moonlight, his expression calm.

Lu Daqi stood in front of him and said with a serious look on his face: "Sir, things are not simple anymore, so you can't sit still and watch anymore!"

For half an hour, Zhou Zheng kept thinking in his heart, what do these people want to do?

There is a motivation to do anything. What is the purpose of them to do such a big thing and involve so many people. They will not hesitate to pull Zhou Yanru, the first force in the dynasty?

They are not able to pull him down for the time being. Even if Zhou Yanru is involved, it is far from enough. Forced him to overturn the table, and he will eventually get better!

Zhou Zheng took a sip of tea and said, "They took action, it's time to come to me. Don't worry, let's wait."

Lu Daqi and others always felt that Zhou Zheng was too calm. Even the little emperor in the capital intervened. If the military power was robbed and the Nanzhili suddenly detained Zhou Zheng, it would definitely be a total turn and the Ming Dynasty's pattern would be completely changed!

Zhou Zheng waved his hand and said, "Everyone is going to bed for the big night."

Lu Daqi and others had no choice but to raise their hands and say goodbye and leave.

Zhou Zheng seemed to have no idea about these things, and he was walking around in Nanzhili without worrying about danger.

On the day after this incident, Zhou Zheng was rafting on the Qinhuai River. He listened to the sound of silk and bamboo around him, and looked relaxed. He lay alone on the flower boat, quietly closing his eyes and pretending to sleep.

I don’t know how long it took, but the shaking flower boat stopped and someone got on board.

Dong Xiaowan held the pipa, looked at Zhou Zheng lying in the boat, saluted softly, and then said, "Sir, I'm playing a song for you."

Zhou Zheng nodded casually, his eyes not even opened.

Dong Xiaowan pursed her lips, then sat at the bow of the boat, started playing and singing in a cappella.

After the song ended, Zhou Zheng did not open his eyes.

Dong Xiaowan owed her body and left with the pipa in her arms.

Not long after Dong Xiaowan left, one of them got on the boat, stood at the bow of the boat, and bowed to Zhou Zhengchang, "I have met Duke Ding."

Zhou Zheng looked up at him and said, "Well, you actually ran out?"

The visitor was Zhou Yanru's closed-door student, Fan Wenjing, the secretary of the cabinet.

Fan Wenjing was also rushing to the road, but he was a little tired, but he couldn't care about it and said, "Duke Ding, please go back to Beijing to uphold justice."

Zhou Zheng sat up, looked at Fan Wenjing, and said, "I was also a little curious and wanted to ask, the imperial guards in the inner court were controlled by Yuan Fu, why did they succeed?"

Fan Wenjing stood in front of Zhou Zheng, hesitated and said, "The Emperor has intervened, Yuan Fu has never been wary of the Emperor."

Zhou Zheng understood and said, "In order to show his loyalty, have you handed over some of the guards to His Majesty?"

Fan Wenjing nodded and said, "Duke Ding, it's still time to go back now. After a long time, not only Yuan Fu is in trouble, but they will not let you go."

Zhou Zheng leaned against the small table barefoot and said, "What are you planning on me to help you?"

Fan Wenjing looked solemn and said, "Now only Ding Guo Duke can support the court and punish the sluts. Please ask Ding Guo Duke to take action, arrest some people, and release Yuanfu."

Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Have you ever thought that Yuan Fu's step down is what I thought?"

Fan Wenjing thought a lot along the way, but this person naturally thought about it and said, "Duke Ding, they are not Yuanfu, they can't give you what you want, and they will sooner or later attack you with the emperor."

Zhou Zheng looked at Fan Wenjing and said, "The last question, what exactly do they want to do?"

Fan Wenjing was stunned, a little confused about Zhou Zheng's words, and then fell into deep thoughts again.

Before, he always thought that these people were dissatisfied with the control of authority for the sake of power, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong.

They could suddenly attack Zhou Yanru because Zhou Yanru had no military power and had an emperor suppressed him, so Zhou Yanru had to surrender.

But the "two Zhous" suffered losses to some extent. Zhou Zheng was different from Zhou Yanru. He held all the military power of the Ming Dynasty and had his confidants all over the capital. If someone really wanted to attack him, if not the world, the capital would inevitably be in chaos, and those people would not take action rashly.

Since that's the case, why did they attack Zhou Yanru? What do they want to do? Are they confident of dealing with Zhou Zheng?

Fan Wenjing couldn't answer Zhou Zheng's question and remained silent.

Zhou Zheng smiled, took a memo from the table and threw it over.

Fan Wenjing took it and looked at it. His expression changed and said, "Duke Dingguo, do you recommend Qian Qianyi as the chief minister? What should I do if Yuanfu?"

Zhou Zheng said lightly: "You have to take it back as soon as possible, otherwise, I am worried that Yuan Fu may not be able to walk out of the palace alive."

Fan Wenjing was frightened and said, "Do they really dare?"

"What else do they dare not?" Zhou Zhengxiao said.
