Chapter 720: Your Highness is invincible
Chapter 720 His Royal Highness is Invincible
Zhu Houzhao killed Zhu Chenhao with a high air, then looked around. Suddenly remembered something, and said to Wang Zhen, "Have you seen Liu Jin?"
"Liu Jin?" Wang Zhen was stunned: "Who is this person?"
"It's my companion." Zhu Houzhao made a gesture: "He was born extremely ugly, greedy, lazy, and afraid of death. When he spoke, his voice was like... um... very thick."
Wang Zhen shook his head: "I will try my best to find it."
Zhu Houzhao said with emotion: "Perhaps, he has already died. I have returned to the capital. I should set up a tomb for him. Poor Liu Banban, he is always so careless. Forget it, enter the city."
Entered the city, and all the Ning Wangwei in the city surrendered.
However, the Poyang Lake water robbers that King Ning had colluded with were all detained. They were originally a group of thieves, and they were not pardoned just because they said they were pardoned.
Now, these people have handed over their weapons and are being held in custody.
Hearing that he got the thief, Zhu Houzhao jumped three feet high excitedly.
There are tens of thousands of such thieves, and they are all extremely ferocious. They harm one party, Zhu Houzhao immediately led Fang Jifan and others to the supervised camp to see.
"I'm going to kill a few thieves to see, let's see if these thieves dare to oppose our Daming."
Zhu Houzhao clenched the hilt of his sword tightly.
Out of the capital, he is like a bird out of the cage.
Fang Jifan also rolled up his sleeves: "I'll kill one too, to save some people from gossiping, so it's a waste of time."
Fang Jifan has always been merciless towards bad guys.
Enthusiastic, he followed Zhu Houzhao to the camp where he was being detained. Immediately, a sergeant grabbed a few gangsters, but when he saw the gangsters, Zhu Houzhao was a little dazed.
The people who came were a few yellow and thin people, with ragged clothes and messy hair. The skin exposed from the torn clothes was very shriveled, like dead wood, and like a skin bag covered with bones.
This...is a thief?
The smile on Zhu Houzhao's face... Gradually disappeared.
"Forgive me, forgive me..." A few water thieves from Poyang Lake cried bitterly, "Forgive me."
Zhu Houzhao sniffed his nose and covered his mouth because the other party stinks.
"Are these people thieves?"
"Exactly." Zhang Jin, a thousand households of Jinyiwei who came along with him, said with a smile: "Your Highness, these thieves are the most cunning. Don't fall for their tricks, Your Highness. They have colluded with King Ning long ago, and they will never repent."
Zhu Houzhao sniffed his nose again.
He came here excitedly, but seeing these water thieves, Zhu Houzhao lost the slightest interest.
He went forward and looked at the water thieves carefully, but the water thieves just knelt on the ground, trembling.
Shen Ao was afraid that the water thief would injure Zhu Houzhao, so he was about to step forward with his sword.
Fang Jifan pulled him back.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the water thief carefully, and started to sniff his nose again.
"Bring the bachelors, governors, general officers, and general managers of our university to come." Zhu Houzhao said, with a blank face, hands behind his back, turned and walked away.
…
Arrived at Xingyuan.
Zhu Houzhao took his seat.
Fang Jifan and others took their seats.
The water thief was brought here.
Zhu Houzhao said: "I am hungry."
"Yes, yes, yes, I have dried meat here, my mother made it." Yang Biao hurriedly fetched some slices of dried meat, Zhu Houzhao took one, and then gave the water thieves two slices each: "Eat."
Zhu Houzhao ate it first, and it tasted good, except that it was a bit coquettish, but Zhu Houzhao didn't care.
The water thief looked at Zhu Houzhao hesitantly, and then, without caring much, immediately started gobbling it up.
Zhu Houzhao laughed loudly: "They are like Liu Banban."
After the water thieves finished eating, Zhu Houzhao said, "Bring them some tea."
That Zhang Jin frowned, not knowing what kind of mystery His Highness was going to play.
Someone brought tea, and the water thieves drank it hurriedly, still kneeling.
Zhu Houzhao said, "Why are you thieves?"
The old thief headed by said: "If you don't become a thief, you will starve to death. A few years ago, Poyang Lake suffered from floods every year..."
Zhu Houzhao said: "Can a thief fill his stomach?"
The old thief cried and said: "I can't even fill my stomach. When I was a lover, I had no harvest and owed rent, so I had to be a thief. Being a thief is even more terrible. The poor can't get a catty if they rob it." Mi, rich and noble families can't grab them, their courtyard walls are high, they have guards, big dogs..."
Zhu Houzhao said: "Do you know that if you are a thief, you will lose your head."
The water thieves began to cry.
Zhu Houzhao sniffed his nose and caught a bit of cold. He missed Liu Jin a little bit. Usually at night, Liu Jin would watch over him to sleep. If he kicked the quilt, Liu Jin would come to tuck in the quilt every now and then. Now it's gone. Liu Jin, the quilt was kicked off the ground, and she didn't even know it.
"Will you still be thieves when you are full?"
The water thieves froze for a moment, you look at me, I look at you. Then, one after another said: "Don't dare, don't dare again."
Zhu Houzhao said: "What are your names?"
The elder said: "Little old Xiong Er."
The others said: "My name is Qian Shisan." "My name is Zhu Jiu."
Zhu Houzhao caressed his forehead, and there was another person surnamed Zhu, what a shame.
Zhu Houzhao then stood up: "Okay, you are not allowed to be thieves in the future, go back and tell other thieves, from today onwards, you are good people, and you will be good people for generations to come, if you become thieves again, I will kill you, I call Zhu Shou, I mean what I say."
All the thieves, you look at me, I look at you, it seems unbelievable.
Thank you a lot, everyone, and are about to leave.
Zhu Houzhao said: "Come back."
Several people were so frightened that their faces turned pale, thinking that Zhu Houzhao had changed his mind.
Zhu Houzhao said: "Yang Biao, why do you still have meat? Who still has dry food?"
Everyone had to search themselves, and all kinds of snacks were shaken out.
Zhu Houzhao took a roll of cloth and handed it to Xiong Er: "Go back and eat, okay, get out, I hate poor people."
Xiong Er was busy and left in a hurry.
The waiter left.
Zhu Houzhao was suddenly furious, and the governor Wang Zhen saw the prince staring at him, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness..."
"Your mother, you are hungry for this palace, and this palace will turn against you. This dog emperor won't let people fill their stomachs. If you don't, what will you do? It's no wonder that old dog Zhu Chenhao can incite so many people, isn't it just that?" The dog emperor and you dog officials?"
Wang Zhen knelt down in fright: "Your Highness..."
Zhu Houzhao frowned: "Potatoes, sweet potatoes, why haven't they been promoted?"
"This..." Wang Zhen glanced at Zhu Houzhao, and said, "It was originally intended to be promoted, but Zhu Chenhao thought it was something His Majesty wanted to promote, so he was very repulsive...all kinds of obstacles."
Zhu Houzhao sneered and pointed at Wang Zhen: "Officer dog, get out!"
Wang Zhen felt that he had been insulted, and wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed it back and obediently resigned.
As soon as Wang Zhen left, Ming'er said, "Old Fang, how do you teach me on weekdays, is there anything you can do now?"
Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao who was furious, and vaguely saw his own shadow in him. He also had a sense of justice and compassion.
Fang Jifan thought for a while: "I see that there are quite a lot of silt in the area around Honggu Beach."
Zhu Houzhao said: "And then?"
"Let's toss from Honggutan first."
"Sure." Zhu Houzhao said bluntly, "Let the dog emperor and the dog officials see what is the unity of knowledge and action."
Fang Jifan had a bitter face: "Your Highness, is it okay not to speak of the dog emperor in front of the minister? You can say it behind my back."
"The dog emperor, the dog emperor, the dog emperor, the dog emperor." Zhu Houzhao enunciated clearly and said it four times in one breath.
"..."
…
Early the next morning.
A decree arrived at Xingyuan.
Zhang Jin felt as if he had eaten a fly. He wanted to cry, and he was about to pee in fright.
But behind him, there is a knife holding him, and the person holding the knife is Zhang Yuanxi.
"Decree!"
Zhang Jin yelled helplessly.
Zhu Houzhao led Fang Jifan and others, and said happily: "My son accepts the order."
Zhang Jindao: "The cabinet temporarily ignores the directors of the Great Scholars, Nine Frontiers, and Chief Military Officers of Zhudu Division..."
Read many titles in a row, finally Zhang Jin said: "I order him to be the governor of the world, and Fang Jifan, the son-in-law captain, is the deputy!"
Zhu Houzhao said: "My son accepts the order."
After taking the decree, Zhu Houzhao said aggressively: "Father finally has a little conscience, and knows the hardships and hardships of the people. Since I have appointed my palace as the governor, then call all the water thieves."
As Zhu Houzhao said, he changed into short clothes. There are tens of thousands of water thieves here. He selected more than a hundred blacksmiths from among the water thieves, and then began to recycle countless confiscated weapons into agricultural tools.
At Honggutan, sheds have already been set up.
There are almost no fields here, because the river is so fast that sometimes it dries up, and sometimes the river floods. Once the river surges, all the original fields will be washed away.
All the money and food in Prince Ning's Mansion were confiscated, and all the food was moved here, and a barn was built. Fang Jifan thought, if he wanted to develop good fields from this Honggutan, to the Hongjiaozhou and Jiulong Lake below, he had to first Build a dam.
Then, countless irrigation ditches are dug, so that water can be diverted for irrigation, and countless good fields have been opened up.
With these fertile fields and the introduction of a large number of high-yield crops, this area in Jiangxi can be used as an agricultural demonstration base. These experiences can also be extended to the Poyang Lake area.
Zhu Houzhao was not idle, and personally led the thieves to quarry stones in Meiling, and then used vines to basket the stones to build dams. Fang Jifan was helpless, so he had to take a **** and ask someone to draw a ditch water network first. Drawings, and then took people to measure the land and dig trenches.
Others have to get busy too.
Xiao Zhu was very serious about his work. When he appeared on the embankment carrying the stone himself, these thieves were a little dazed.
To be honest... I have never seen such a big governor.
Xiong Er was a little dazed at first. At first he drove them here, thinking that he was going to be dragged to do hard labor, but then, he felt more and more unbelievable.
...
and also.
In addition, many descriptions about Xiao Zhu, such as chopping up King Ning's body with a knife, and serving jerky to Xiong Er with a pleasant face, are actually the restoration of "Records of Wu Zong".
For example, the food for jerky is actually recorded in the history of Xiao Zhu’s visit to the south of the Yangtze River. The original sentence is: the words are very harmonious (and the color is pleasant), so he cooks tea and offers it (the old man offers tea to Xiao Zhu), and the follower receives the fruit Cake, eat two pieces for yourself, and take two pieces to give to the elderly. (After Xiao Zhu ate the old man's tea, he asked someone to bring out some cakes, ate two by himself, and gave the old man two cakes in return.)
In fact, there are many similar small details, which are hidden in the story, but after the artistic processing of the novel, um, roughly the same.
