Smuggling Daming

I saw a match going on on the field of the military academy on a square field marked with lime. The players in the match were divided into two teams, one of which had a red scarf on its head, and the other had The blue scarves are used as a distinction, and the players of these competitions are all wearing leather armor for infantry. It doesn't look like a competition at all, but more like a war.

The two sides of the game are fighting for a football, but Zhengde is very puzzled that the first rule of the game that Zhou Zhong explained to him before is that except for the goalkeeper, other players are not allowed to touch the football with their hands. No one in the team that was playing was following this rule at all. They all went up to grab the ball like crazy, and kicked everything they could. If Zhou Zhong hadn't deliberately reminded that this was a football game, I'm afraid Zhengde would think it was a wrestling match.

"Second brother, are these people playing football?" Zhengde asked incredulously. He had just watched helplessly as a member of the red team was pulled down by a player of the blue team, revealing a big lump inside, and then another The blue team member snatched the ball with a swoop, and started to run wildly while holding the ball. Several red team members tried to stop him, but were brutally knocked away. The last leap dribbled the ball into the opponent's goal. It caused the people watching around to whine loudly.

"Although I really don't want to admit it, Chendi really wanted to train these people into a football team, but I didn't expect these people to think that there are too many rules in football, so they changed the football to the look in front of them, but I don't think it can be done anymore. Call it football, but it should be called rugby." Zhou Zhong said weakly, and the football rules he proposed were changed by these people in the military academy.It has become the rugby of later generations.Even leather armor is worn on the body.Almost the same as football in later generations.

"Rugby? Why is it called this name?" Zhengde couldn't tell the point of the problem at all, and instead cared about these irrelevant details.

"Round footballs are not easy to grab. In two days, I will ask people to change the current football into an olive shape with two pointed ends, so that they can grab it!" Zhou Zhong said viciously, although he has always asked for the football in the military academy The team played according to the rules he made. Unfortunately, the boys in the military academy are already skinny. On the surface, they promised very well, but how to rob is still how to rob.Because they knew that His Royal Highness King Zhao, who was not much older than them, would not punish them for such a trivial matter.

"Hahaha~, it's a good way to turn a round ball into a ball with two pointed ends, but I think that although the two teams below seem to be playing games, they also pay attention to courage, cooperation and strategy when grabbing the ball , It’s really a good way to train soldiers!” Zhengde doesn’t care about football or rugby, in his opinion, as long as he can train himself a group of brave generals, that’s a good game.

Zhengde chatted with Zhou Zhong casually.Then he put all his mind on the rugby below, after all, this kind of sport full of violence and bravery is also his favorite.Even Zhengde felt that the sports that Zhou Zhong gave him before were not as good as the rugby in front of him.

Seeing Zhengde's happy appearance, Zhou Zhong shook his head helplessly. Zhengde's personality has long been fixed, and he can't change it. Martial arts and fun have almost become synonymous with Zhengde, which also allows many people to grasp Zhengde's preferences , so as to climb up to power, such as Liu Jin, Qian Ning, Jiang Bin, etc., even his younger brother, in order to keep Zhengde away from Jiang Bin, he can only divert Zhengde's attention from playing.

Accompanying Zhengde to watch a game of rugby in the military academy, at the end of the game, Zhengde also called the two participating teams to give rewards respectively, and then Zhengde chatted with these students very cordially, all the chats were about rugby things, and even learned some ball-grabbing skills from these students.

Sitting next to him, Zhou Zhong looked at Zhengde who was happily discussing rugby with others. At first, he felt a little relieved. After all, he finally transferred Zhengde's interest from Jiang Bin, but then he was surprised, because he Suddenly thought of another possibility.

Early the next morning, Zhou Zhong entered the palace again, but when he found Zhengde, he saw the scene he least wanted to see. He saw Zhengde and Jiang Bin, the adopted sons, divided into two teams, vying for a sharp-edged man with two ends. Judging from their sweaty faces, it is estimated that they have been playing for quite a long time.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Zhou Zhong wanted to give himself two slaps. He wanted to divert Zhengde's attention by having fun, but he didn't expect him to go too far. He was too busy looking for new things for Zhengde to play with, but forgot to play. These things still need to be accompanied by someone. Now it’s good. With the introduction of rugby, Jiang Bin will definitely seize the opportunity. Today he will play rugby with him, tomorrow he may play billiards with him, and the day after tomorrow he may play badminton. The relationship between Bin and Zhengde will only get closer.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhong could only sigh helplessly. The so-called "lifting a rock to shoot himself in the foot" is probably how he feels now, and everything has already been offered, especially a few of them are still He wasn't very good at it, so he couldn't compete with Jiang Bin even more.

In desperation, Zhou Zhong did not bother Zhengde, and returned to the palace alone, and then told Jiao Fang about his mistake, hoping that he could give him an idea, but Jiao Fang laughed and said: "Why is Your Highness so confused? What's wrong with Jiang Bin approaching His Majesty? Li Dongyang and the others don't want to see this situation, but for His Highness, it is beneficial and harmless!"

"Well, what do you mean..." Zhou Zhong hadn't finished asking, but his expression suddenly changed, because he already understood what Jiao Fang meant, but the idea was so amazing that he couldn't believe it.

"Hey, Jiang Bin, a warrior, wholeheartedly encouraged His Majesty to go to the Xuanfu, and His Majesty has always wanted to go to the battlefield in person. It just so happens that there are often wars with the prairie people in the Xuanfu. Opportunity, but the situation on the battlefield is changing, no one dares to guarantee the safety of His Majesty, if something happens to His Majesty, then...hehe..." Although Jiao Fang's words are a bit harsh, they are also true. If he went to the Xuan Mansion and encountered an accident, it would be a great joy for Zhou Zhong, because the whole world would be his.

"No!" Facing the temptation of the whole world, although Zhou Zhong's face showed a bit of struggle, he finally refused, "The brotherhood of the emperor and me is extremely deep, and since we met the emperor After meeting, the emperor also took care of and trusted me more, so Jiao Ge must not say these words of no king and no father in the future!"

Everyone likes power, even Zhou Zhong, who didn't like to be an official before, has a deep understanding of the temptation of power after serving as the governor for several years, and the most powerful person in the world is naturally the emperor of Ming Dynasty. It also has a great attraction, but although Zhengde is absurd, he really treats himself as a brother, and Zhou Zhong is not a heartless person, so he will never stand by because of a mere throne. Send Masanori into danger!

Seeing that Zhou Zhong rejected his proposal straight away, and it definitely didn't look like acting, Jiao Fang couldn't help but be taken aback. Through the past few years of getting along, he has already regarded himself as Zhou Zhong's confidant, That's why he said those outrageous words above, and he also felt that Zhou Zhong would not refuse, but the result was far beyond his expectation.

"Your Highness..."

Jiao Fang was still a little reconciled, and just wanted to say something, but Zhou Zhong interrupted: "Okay, don't mention this matter again, Mr. Jiao Ge had better rot all the words of today in his stomach, otherwise it will spread in the future , I'm afraid it's not good for you!"

Seeing that Zhou Zhong had made up his mind, Jiao Fang had no choice but to sigh helplessly and said, "Your Highness and His Majesty are brothers and sisters, I was a bit of a villain just now!"

Zhou Zhong knew that although Jiao Fang's previous words had his own selfish intentions, they were generally for his own sake, so he didn't pursue this matter too much, but continued with the question just now, hoping that Jiao Fang could give a suppression Jiang Bin's method.

Regarding Zhou Zhong's question, Jiao Fang thought about it for a while, and finally smiled and said: "Your Highness, I was selfish before, so I just watched His Highness compete with Jiang Bin on his own shortcomings, but this pair of His Highness There is no harm, at least it can deepen His Majesty's brotherhood towards His Highness, and if His Highness wants to suppress Jiang Bin, it will be much easier. Among other things, you have a sharp weapon in your hand to suppress Jiang Bin, it depends on His Highness. used?"

"Oh? What sharp weapon?" Zhou Zhong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked eagerly.

"His Royal Highness is currently supervising the military academy, and if I remember correctly, the first batch of fast-track generals in the military academy have been trained, and they should have been arranged to join the army long ago, but because Jiang Bin joined the military academy before, this was delayed, but Now that the military academy has restored its original order, these people will also be assigned to the army. It just so happens that although the frontier troops Jiang Bin mobilized into Beijing have extraordinary combat power, they are not from the forbidden army of the Beijing camp after all, so the imperial court has little control over these frontier troops. Qiang, if the first batch of cadets from the military academy can be arranged to serve as middle- and lower-level generals in the frontier army, then, hehe..."

When Jiao Fang finished speaking, her smile became very sinister, and Zhou Zhong applauded loudly when she heard this. Apart from the favor of Zhengde, what Jiang Bin relied on was the [-] frontier troops transferred to the capital. If students from the military academy were assigned to the frontier army, it would be equivalent to fundamentally cutting off Jiang Bin's control over the frontier army. His face changed when this happened. (To be continued..)
