It was early in the morning when the fleet arrived at the dock at Daqing River. Along the way, as it got closer and closer to Jinan, Zhu Guoqiang could not suppress his excitement.

After all, in this world, Jinan is his home!

There are his women. Especially Li Jingyun, since she traveled to this world and rushed out of the sea of ​​fire, the first person she saw was her, this little woman who was willing to be with him life and death.

No, no, she is definitely not a little girl. At least not a weak woman. This woman can hold up a whole world here by herself!

Maybe it’s because of the fear of being close to home!

Zhu Guoqiang's heart was pounding, and he was a little anxious. He just wanted to see the girl who was even stronger than him right away.

Liu Rushi, Li Shiniang and the others, who were standing tall and graceful in front of the cabin, looked at the expression on the prince's face and couldn't help but sigh. As women, they didn't know why the prince showed such an expression.

But there are some things that you can't envy. Besides, that woman is the eldest lady in the palace and the prince's concubine. In comparison, they are just slaves serving the prince.

Suddenly he heard the sound of horse hoofbeats in the distance, which woke Zhu Guoqiang out of his reverie. When he saw who was coming, he couldn't help but be ecstatic.

"Quick, put down the springboard!"

Listening to the sound of horse hooves and looking towards the shore, Liu Rushi was surprised to see a red cloud. It was a group of female cavalry in red. Their heroic appearance made her eyes widen.

There are actually so many female cavalry!

And the leader was...the pretty female general jumped off the horse gracefully, and then threw herself directly into the arms of the prince.

She must be the Crown Princess!

Liu Rushi thought to herself, well, not only is she beautiful, but she also has a heroic demeanor, which makes people envious just by looking at him.

"Master Shizi!"

After throwing herself into the arms of the Crown Prince, Li Jingyun, who had been on tenterhooks for a while, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Jingyun!"

Seeing her autumn-like eyes turning red and even having dark circles, Zhu Guoqiang couldn't bear it, so he hugged her tightly and said softly.

"Jingyun, you have worked hard these days."

Thinking of her presiding over Jinan alone, and the hard work she had to do to protect Jinan for herself during this turmoil, Zhu Guoqiang felt a burst of heartache in his heart. He snuggled into his arms, being so close to him, and being treated so tenderly and considerately by him.

, when Li Jingyun relaxed, she couldn't help but feel filled with joy, feeling that all the hard work was worth it.

Liu Rushi, who was standing on the boat, couldn't help showing a hint of envy when she saw the prince carefully holding the prince's concubine in his arms and caring for her. However, after a moment, her expression calmed down again.

After all, she is the Crown Princess!

And I... am just my maid.

Noticing that Sister Liu's expression seemed a little strange, Li Shiniang held her hand and said.

"Sister, in fact, I am also very kind to us. As long as we stay by my side, it will be our blessing..."

After listening to Li Shiniang's words, Liu Rushi couldn't help but smile, yes, as long as he stays with me, it will be fine.

She once again looked at the two people hugging each other tightly on the pier. She was stunned when she saw that he was actually kissing her.

"Oh my god, this, this man is so ridiculous. He is a dignified prince. No matter how much he dotes on his wife, he shouldn't do it in public..."

Looking at them, Liu Rushi bit her lip. Although she seemed to be smiling, her eyes were flashing with envy.

"Master, there is someone..."

Li Jingyun, who was kissed wildly by the prince, was a little confused and infatuated, but she still came to her senses and broke away from the arms of the prince. She was blushing and heard the suppressed laughter of the female soldiers behind her.

She was very shy, but she still took a deep breath, tucked the messy hair behind her ears that had fallen away from running and shaking, and then bowed to the prince.

"I respectfully welcome the Crown Prince back to my home!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the female cavalrymen behind her bowed at the same time.

"Congratulations to welcome the Crown Prince back to your home!"

Facing this group of heroic female soldiers, Zhu Guoqiang laughed loudly.

"Let's go home!"

Seeing several carriages parked aside, Zhu Guoqiang said doubtfully.

"This is……"

"It's for you!"

With a sweet smile, Li Jingyun said in a rather calm tone.

"I heard in Jinan that the prince was very romantic when he was young, and he especially raped women of the people. Now that he is back, they must be allowed to follow him!"

While talking, Li Jingyun cast her eyes towards the boat. There were more than a dozen young women standing there. It was true that even if it was just a robbery, just three or five people, he actually robbed so many at once.

This man also doesn't know moderation.

Her words made Zhu Guoqiang smile uncomfortably. He always had to face what he had to face. However, Li Jingyun didn't have any resentment. Not to mention the prince, he was a wealthy family. Who didn't have many wives, concubines, and servants?

There are so many maids, and besides, they are just a few singing prostitutes and maids.

After getting in the car, just when Zhu Guoqiang was about to explain, Li Jingyun put her head on his shoulder, yawned and said softly.

"Master, let me lean on your shoulder. I'm so tired..."

Maybe she was really tired, so she just leaned on his shoulder at first, but slowly she fell into his arms and fell asleep.

Looking at the sweetly sleeping girl in his arms, Zhu Guoqiang couldn't help but feel sad. She has been working really hard these days!

…

Still feel at home!

He crossed his legs comfortably and found himself in the familiar study room. Looking at the tiger-skin-covered lounge chair next to the window, Zhu Guoqiang lay down on it leisurely, enjoying himself at home.

Is it easy for me to work hard these days?

Despite this sigh, I have to admit that the feeling of having great power is really comfortable.

Perhaps, this is the feeling that the ancients said that we are "awake holding a murderous sword, drunk and lying on the knees of a beautiful woman!"

I have been wielding a murderous sword a lot these days.

Drunk in the lap of a beautiful woman!

Lying on the soft cotton tiger skin recliner, Zhu Guoqiang suddenly thought of the four singing girls sent by Qian Qianyi. What did they look like?

Naturally, I also thought of Li Xiangjun.

Although they were sent over a long time ago, Zhu Guoqiang has never seen the four of them. He has no time in Nanjing and no time in Taoyuan. They are on the ship... well, they are not on the same ship yet.

"Otherwise, why don't we call them over? In this case, Shi Niang and the others all have their own skills, and I don't know what they are practicing."

The reason why I have such wild thoughts is because I was led astray by them. I originally thought that the women on the Qinhuai River just learned poetry, poetry and dance since childhood, but who would have thought that they would actually have unique skills that they had learned from a young age.

Otherwise, call them over, listen to the music, watch the dance, and then...

It's rare to have half a day's leisure in life. Just when this idea came to Zhu Guoqiang's mind, Song Xue, Zhu and others asked for a meeting outside the house.

Yes, compared to beauty, these people are more important. It is not yet time for the king to stop attending court in the morning.

Besides, we have to play the role of Ming Jun now... no, Xian Fan! Of course, this Xian Fan is a bit murderous, but he is definitely a Xian Fan who cares about the people.

Not only did the governor Song Xuezhu come, but also the inspector Zhou Zhixun, the administrative envoy Zhang Bingwen, and the political counselor Deng Qian. When the three of them saw the prince going out to greet him in person, they all stopped to salute.

"I'm here to meet you, the Crown Prince!"

"Why do you need more courtesy? Come on, don't be polite! Come on, don't be polite!"

After passing this test, these people in front of them have been branded as "Defan". Although "evil officials provoked civil unrest" covered everything up, everyone knew in their hearts that Shandong, at least Jinan Prefecture, was already a

The world of De Fan is over.

After seeing the ceremony, he entered the house. He was seated and served tea. Song Xuezheng took a leisurely sip of tea and twirled his beard.

"I read the newspaper from my residence and said that Your Majesty has ordered the Crown Prince to open a palace in Lushun. In this way, Lushun and Ningjin are in harmony. I think that building a slave will no longer trouble the Ming Dynasty. It is really a blessing to the Ming Dynasty. The imperial edict orders Shandong to help the Crown Prince

As long as the prince needs military pay, food and grass, we in Shandong will do our best!"

Song Xuezhu's words were very tactful. He seemed to be obeying the court, but in fact he was telling Zhu Guoqiang that he would do the same as before and would do the logistics well so that he would not have to worry about it.

"In this case, there will be Lao Xuchu."

Zhu Guoqiang said with a slight nod.

"Actually, I'm not worried about military pay and food. After all, I have gained a lot from this trip south, and the money and food are sufficient. As for the future when we arrive in Lushun, we can not only build ports and cities, but also attract trade and open sea. Food and wages are not a problem for the time being.

What I’m worried about is Shandong!”

We did capture a lot of things during our trip south this time. After all, South Zhili was far richer than the north. Besides, there were so many fat sheep in both Nanjing and Yangzhou.

Wherever there is a fat sheep, it is clearly a fat pig. Not only did he get so much money, he also got a lot of food. In troubled times, that food is even more important than money. After all, food is the morale of the army.

He has food in his hands and does not panic. Because of this, Zhu Guoqiang is not worried about military food.

"Shandong?"

Song Xuezhu looked at the prince meaningfully and said.

"Your Majesty, are you worried about something happening in Shandong?"
