Several Shangshu in Nanjing knew that Zheng Sen was about to go back to Fujian.

This is part of the alliance between the Regent and Zheng Zhilong.

Ma Shiying, the Minister of Personnel who has just taken office, is definitely the most proud person in Nanjing recently. He shows with practical actions that all the expectations and trust of the Regent for him are worth it.

After the split of the Western Army, Zheng Zhilong was unable to make up his mind to raise the banner of "clearing the king's side", so the fifty-year-old Qu Shisi acted as cannon fodder like a twenty-year-old young man.

When the war in Guangxi was in full swing, many people did not know that in order to facilitate negotiations, Zheng Zhilong came to Xianxia Pass in Quzhou Prefecture. The newly appointed governor of Zhejiang was Ma Shiying's brother-in-law Yang Wencong, secretly doing almost everything he could to promote negotiations.

Facts have proved that the Donglin Party is not a good player in intrigue.

Before the coldest season of winter came, a team of 500 cavalry escorted a carriage out of the Nanjing city gate. The snow on the streets in the city had melted, and some snow was still covered in the gray lawn in the remote wilderness.

The team left the city gate and went east, and one hour later, outside a remote manor.

The cavalry formed a half-moon formation to protect the carriage in the middle. A middle-aged man wearing a military uniform of a second-rank deputy general stepped forward and opened the curtain. Then, a middle-aged man wearing a black official hat, a brocade robe with gold silk sleeves, a light yellow cloak, and a water-milled long cowhide boots walked out.

The manor gate was suddenly opened, and the rusty door knocker swayed rhythmically. Two rows of men in black walked out of it, with long knives hanging on their waists.

Two rows of mermaids walked out of the gate, knelt on the ground at the same time, shouting loudly: "See the Prince."

"Flat" Zhai Zhe glanced at the manor in front of him.

There is a tiger trapped here, and now he is going to let the tiger go back to the mountain.

After hearing what Zheng Sen did during imprisonment, he also admired this young man a little.

The guards of the royal palace quickly took over the manor, and Zhai Zhe walked into the gate.

Some cypress and wintersweet were planted in the manor, and the winding paths were secluded. I didn’t expect that the prosperous Yingtian Mansion would have such an elegant place.

The guard Qian led the way forward, and Zhai Zhe walked into the main hall opposite the gate. There was a chart of cranes flying pine and sea hanged in the middle hall of the main hall, and the edges of the paper were a little yellow, which seemed to be a little old.

This manor, including the fields around the manor, originally belonged to Zhu Guobi, Duke Baoguo. The Qing soldiers went south and Zhu Guobi participated in the surrender of Xiancheng and was sent to Beijing. The manor was confiscated by the General's Mansion. The surrounding fields were used as official fields, and the manor was preserved.

There was a chair placed under the pine and crane picture, which was prepared for the Regent.

Zhai Zhe sat up and ordered: "Bring Zheng Sen here."

The guard Qian said goodbye and left.

A moment later, he led a young man in white robe out of the backyard.

Zheng Sen looked in good spirits, but his face turned a little pale. Perhaps it was because he was not wearing much clothes. His robe looked a little thin.

Suddenly seeing Zhai Zhe, the surprise flashed across his face, and he immediately stepped forward to salute: "See the Prince"

Zhai Zhe was very satisfied with his reaction and calmness and asked: "Zheng Sen, I have imprisoned you here for two years. What do you think?"

Zheng Sen was not in a hurry to answer, but was thinking quietly. He never expected Zhai Zhe to come to see him personally.

Zhai Zhe didn't urge him, and just looked at him quietly.

"Either my father raised an army or my father surrendered. Zhai Zhe came here in person, either to kill me or to let me go." After a long time, Zheng Sen bowed and said, "The prince is wise, and the general knows that the prince will be able to find out that the prince will be innocent sooner or later."

Zhai Zhe secretly gave a thumbs up, and Zheng Sen was indeed the Qianliju of the Zheng family.

"You are right, I have found out that the assassination that year has nothing to do with you."

Zheng Sen's body swayed, and he couldn't help but feel ecstasy in his heart. Zhai Zhe was going to let him go back. He praised him in a very sincere tone: "The prince is wise."

"Your father and I are close friends. After you go back, don't forget to convey my greetings."

"Thank you, Prince" Zheng Sen's heart was about to fly into the air. He knew that there must be a reason for Zhai Zhe to let him go back, but now he doesn't want to ask anything. As long as he can leave this manor, it's worth the price.

"I originally wanted to imprison you for five years, but King Yanping couldn't wait." Zhai Zhe laughed loudly, "King Yanping returned Ganzhou to the court, and promised to send a navy to help the court's northern expedition next year. Maybe you will come to my account to serve next year."

Zheng Sen's smile froze. Is this too expensive?

"Zheng Sen," Zhai Zhe said bluntly: "I admire you very much. I have reached an alliance with your father. The court has renamed your father the King of Zhenhai, and both Fujian and Guangdong are handed over to your Zheng family for generations to guard."

How binding can this kind of covenant be? Zheng Sen said in a wrong way: "The prince is as important to the Zheng family."

"You go to Fujian and Guangdong, and you may not enter the country again in the future. I am here today to tell you that the South China Sea is very large, and Xifan can cross the ocean and come to the Ming Dynasty. My Ming navy can also travel thousands of miles. When the Ming Dynasty implemented the sea ban, the people of Fujian and Guangdong were not able to live in peace, and the Japanese pirates harmed Zhejiang and Fujian. Today, the Zheng navy traveled all over the world and the four seas were peaceful. I opened the sea ban to open the sea ban for the three places of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong, and also for the Zheng family."

Zhai Zhe told a stranger his idea for the first time. He was just a person and needed many people to help him do more. The choice of this young man in front of him could help him avoid detours for a few years. He could choose to kill Zheng Sen and put Zheng Zhilong in three years or more. However, he gave up because he wanted to return to the grassland as soon as possible.

Zheng Sen was still chewing Zhai Zhe's words, but he couldn't understand them for a while.

Zhai Zhe did not continue to think with him and said, "Tomorrow, the Jinyiwei will escort you south to New Year's Eve, you can return to Fuzhou."

Mr. Qian looked at his gesture and escorted Zheng Sen to retreat. His boring errand was finally over.

The Regent walked out of the ruined estate, and the cavalry escorted the carriage back along the road when they came.

The snow scene in the wild seemed quiet and peaceful than in Nanjing. Zhai Zhe sat in the carriage and watched the scenery passing by the bed. He suddenly wanted to run wildly. If there was Wulan by his side, it would be even more perfect.

Unfortunately, this is in Jiangnan, and there is not such a vast pasture, and it is even more impossible to embrace him as home-like as the grasslands in the south of the desert.

The sea and grassland are both dangerous and mysterious, but they can make the Han people take risks with adventurous spirits and never stop. The Ming Dynasty must choose one direction to conquer.

He has made many stopgap tricks and deceived some people, but this time he is not deceiving Zheng Zhilong.

If there were no accidents, he had decided to hand over himself to the grassland in his lifetime, so he handed over the sea to the Zheng family.

As for the next ten or a hundred years, it is impossible for him to do everything alone and leave it to his younger generation.
