Chapter 176: The Blessing of Qi People
Zhu Hongsan is not as hard as he was in Wuchang now. With more than a dozen big or small family members entering the yard, there are hundreds of servants. Zhu Hongsan sometimes sits in the house and fantasizes about it. Is this the same thing about the Chu Prince's Mansion in Wuchang City?
This is why Zhu Hongsan's country bumpkin has never seen the world. Zhu Yuanzhang could prepare such a small house for his son. After the completion of the Chu Palace, it occupied half of the Wuchang Palace, which was much larger than Zhu Hongsan's pig nest now.
The King of Chu took a concubine tonight, so the whole mansion was naturally busy. Although the King of Chu said he would give the four new ladies the treatment of the original wife, the people below knew that this was just the wishful thinking of the King of Chu. The national law is here, and marrying the original wife requires a record in the government, that is, getting a marriage certificate, which is like a joke.
Zhu Hongsan, a local gangster, knew about this and thought he was his wife when he came in through the gate. He was also very happy to see that the servant was preparing very well.
It was the afternoon when we got married in the Ming Dynasty, and it was even more night when we took concubines, so Zhu Hongsan chose the auspicious time to be dark.
Because Old Man Feng came, Zhu Hongsan's team, except Tong Yangjia, went to the county town, so only Tong Yangjia's uncle and nephew were the ones who drank the wedding banquet.
When Zhu Hongsan saw the two of them coming, he was quite surprised and asked, "Mr. Tong, you didn't go to the county to welcome Lord Feng?"
Tong Yangjia smiled and said, "With my relationship with the Ma brothers, I will definitely be discouraged if I go there. It's better not to go."
Zhu Hongsan said: "Mr. Tong is going to serve as the prefect. If you don't visit Shangguan, aren't you afraid of wearing small shoes for you?"
Tong Yangjia bowed and said, "I, Tong Yangjia, are the official of the King of Chu. Everything I have given to me by the King of Chu, and it has nothing to do with him."
Zhu Hongsan knew that Tong Yangjia was taking the opportunity to show his loyalty to him, but he loved to listen to this.
Zhu Hongsan laughed loudly, pointed at Tong Yangjia with his hand and said, "Old Tong, you are just telling the truth, but I like to listen, go and drink in the house." After that, he pulled Tong Yangjia into the house.
The Ma family buddy did not come today, so Tong Yangjia naturally sat down. Tie Niu was below, Liu Dali and Duan Chang had three people, and Tong Tuchang sat down at the end.
Zhu Hongsan remembered that there was such a person when he saw Tong Tuchang today, or he would have forgotten. Zhu Hongsan asked, "Mr. Tong, what are your nephew doing now?"
Tong Yangjia came today for his nephew's future. When he heard Zhu Hongsan's question, he quickly said, "He is now my subordinates are a clerk."
Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "Mr. Tong wants to go to Qiongzhou to open up a new situation. Then bring Tong Tuchang with you, so you can rest assured."
Tong Yangjia was waiting for this sentence and hurriedly said, "Lord, what should I do if the identity of that nephew is?"
Zhu Hongsan thought for a while and said, "Let's do this, give Tong Tuchang a Qiongzhou Prefecture Promotion Officer."
Tong Yangjia was overjoyed when he heard this. He was a seventh-rank official. The state recognized that the official was actually short of an official. His nephew was not even a child. This was already the kindness of the King of Chu.
Tong Yangjia hurriedly called Tong Tuchang and asked him to kowtow to the King of Chu to thank the King of Chu for his kindness in promoting him.
Zhu Hongsan helped Tong Tuchang up and said, "You have to do a good job when you go. Don't worry about the affairs of the city. If you go, you are responsible for the mining of iron ore. Do you know?"
Tong Tuchang nodded repeatedly, swearing that he would live up to the hope of King Chu.
Zhu Hongsan nodded and said to Tong Yangjia: "Mr. Tong, don't worry about other things when you go to the other ones this time, mainly iron ore. The sooner the ore is mined, the better. If you take a new army in the first battalion, whoever is not convinced will kill his whole family, do you know?"
Tong Yangjia knew that Zhu Hongsan was cruel and ruthless, and hurriedly asked: "Qiongzhou is Hai Rui's hometown, and the Hai family is quite powerful. What if they don't accept it?"
Zhu Hongsan cursed: "Mr. Tong, why are you so stubborn? You are more familiar with these things than me. If the Hai family doesn't agree, they will pull him into the water, set up a fairy to jump, and grab his braid. The most filthy family in this kind of big family is that they deceive their sister-in-law and steal their mother, and their father-in-law will take off the ashes. If you look for more, there must be a lot of them."
When Tong Yangjia heard Zhu Hongsan say this, he was frightened and thought to himself: "This guy's heart is so toxic. You can think of such garbage. With Hai Rui's reputation, as long as the Hai family does something, Shilin will be considered a stinking street in the future."
Zhu Hongsan continued: "That iron ore is in Yashan. At that time, I will give you a letter of defense from the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, so that Hainan Guards can cooperate with you with all their strength. I must make an iron ore within two months. Mr. Tong, do you know how much money we need to buy pig iron in a month? I will lose a lot of money one day later."
Tong Yangjia was in charge of the industry for a few days and knew that Zhu Hongsan was telling the truth. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Don't worry, lord, if you go down, you will go to Yazhou. You must transport the first batch of iron ore within two months."
Zhu Hongsan nodded, and the butler outside Zhu Fa entered the house and said, "Prince, the auspicious time has come. Please invite the prince to worship."
The next thing was simple. The guests came to celebrate with the four ladies. Seeing that there was a newcomer with a big belly, they couldn't help but laugh at Zhu Hongsan. Of course, they didn't show it in terms of face, and they didn't dare to show it.
After the ceremony, Zhu Hongsan and four newcomers entered the bridal chamber. Zhu Mom was pregnant and could not go to the room. Tonight, the other three were naturally accompanied by Zhu Hongsan. Zhu Hongsan had a lot of trouble this night, and it was not until dawn that he hugged his three wives and fell asleep.
Zhu Hongsan was so romantic and happy, but forgot to talk to Ma Shaoguang about his visit to Feng Ruoshu in the morning.
When Old Man Feng heard that the King of Chu was going to pay homage to him in the evening, he withdrew from the banquet of several officials and made a special trip to wait for Zhu Hongsan at the inn.
Unexpectedly, when Zhu Hongsan was holding the lights, he didn't come either. Old Man Feng asked Ma Shaoguang: "Boyu, did the King of Chu say that he would come tonight?"
Ma Shaoguang nodded affirmatively and said, "Uncle, the King of Chu is saying that he will come to visit tonight."
When Feng Ruoshu heard this, wait. Maybe the King of Chu was afraid that he would not finish the social engagement here.
Unexpectedly, when Feng Ruoshu waited until midnight, his face was a little bad. Ma Shaoguang also saw it and hurried out to inquire about the news.
After a while, Ma Shaoguang came back and said, "Uncle, it's too late, so you can go to bed first."
When Feng Ruoshu heard that Zhu Hongsan was not coming, he asked, "What? The King of Chu is not coming?"
Ma Shaoguang said: "The King of Chu married the four wives tonight. He drank too much and had already rested with the four wives."
Feng Ruoshu's face turned green and he cursed: "This stupid king is still thinking about such a thing at this time. If I had known this, I would rather stay in Nanzhili."
Seeing that Old Man Feng was so angry, Ma Shaoguang rushed forward to persuade him, fearing that the old man would be angry.
After a long time, Old Man Feng's anger disappeared and asked Ma Shaoguang to go home by himself. Old Man Feng also went back to sleep.
The dumb king Zhu Hongsan naturally didn't know these things. He slept until midnight the next day before he reluctantly lay out from the pile of powder.
Ma Shaoguang came to the front yard early in the morning to wait for Zhu Hongsan. Unexpectedly, when Zhu Hongsan came out at noon, his butt became numb.
Seeing Zhu Hongsan coming out, Ma Shaoguang stepped forward and said, "Prince, didn't you agree to go to see Lord Feng last night? Lord Feng waited all night."
"Damn, I forgot about this." Zhu Hongsan grabbed Ma Shaoguang and asked, "Are you angry, uncle?"
Ma Shaoguang smiled bitterly and said, "What do you think, Prince?"
"It's over, Old Man Feng is the most stingy and must have a grudge." Zhu Hongsan thought for a while and said, "Bo Yu, go prepare the horse and go to the post station."
Zhu Hongsan came to the gate of the inn, dismounted and looked at him. He would make him feel embarrassed when he saw that Old Man Feng was not good.
Zhu Hongsan took off one of his shoes, walked around the ground with socks, thought about it and rolled a few times on the ground, but it still didn't work. It just so happened that the wall of the station was a brick wall. Zhu Hongsan gritted his teeth and rubbed his forehead hard on the wall. This time, a few blood marks immediately appeared.
Ma Shaoguang looked at Zhu Hongsan's strange behavior from the side and asked, "Prince, why are you?"
Zhu Hongsan pulled Ma Shaoguang over and whispered: "After a moment, you will say that I was accidentally dismissed on the way here, but insisted on coming to visit my uncle."
Ma Shaoguang was really defeated by the prince's shamelessness. Ma Shaoguang said: "Prince, a gentleman is open and honest, isn't this good?"
Zhu Hongsan cursed: "You are a gentleman, and I am a villain. Do you want to be a county magistrate? Just say that, do you know?"
Ma Shaoguang had no choice but to nodded in agreement.
When Zhu Hongsan saw Ma Shaoguang agree, he let go of Ma Shaoguang's hand, shouted and rushed into the post station, and ran and shouted: "Uncle, where are you, uncle, you are here? The son-in-law is here to apologize. Uncle..."
