Chapter 47 Undercurrent!

Yang Xian said quickly: "Your Majesty, this is the residence of King Wu, there is no mistake."

"Then what's going on with these people?" Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at the refugees, "There aren't so many refugees even outside the city, right?"

"Back to Your Majesty, His Highness King Wu is recruiting refugees these days, providing food, drink, clothing, shoes, and money. It has been spread in Yingtian for a long time. All these refugees came to the door of King Wu to gather yesterday.

King Wu didn't drive them away, but accepted them all!" Yang Xian had a strange expression.

The sun was really shining in the west, and Crazy Zhu actually showed his kindness and helped the victims.

"How many people are there, do you know?"

"No less than three thousand people!" Yang Xian said.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked towards the crowd.

Mao Xiang said quickly: "Your Majesty, these are unruly people, so be careful..."

"Unfaithful people?" Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly, "These are the common people of our great cause. If they were not helpless, why would they leave their hometown and come to Yingtian to seek a way to survive?"

He waved his hand, walked over, grabbed a middle-aged man in his forties and asked, "Brother, why are you all gathered here?"

The middle-aged man looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and saw that Zhu Yuanzhang's face was ruddy but his clothes were patched, so he said warily: "Are you trying to cheat me out of food, drink, and money?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, "I didn't!"

"No?" The man snorted coldly, pointed at Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Although you are poorly dressed, you have a rosy complexion, a loud voice, and a good demeanor. You obviously have no worries about food and clothing.

Prince Wu's Mansion spent money to help the victims, give us and other refugees a place to live, and also gave us food and clothing, so please stop making trouble and give us poor people a way to survive!"

"Is someone here to cause trouble?" Zhu Yuanzhang grasped the key point of the man's words.

“Some scoundrels came over to eat, drink, and get money, so Prince Wu’s Mansion gave an order to break the hands and feet of any one they caught, and if they reported one, they still got money.

So I advise you, if you don’t want to lose your hands and feet, you should leave as soon as possible!” the middle-aged man said.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded. At this time, it was helpless to intimidate the scoundrels with heavy penalties. "Why are the steamed buns and porridge in your hands mixed with gravel? Are you afraid of eating people bad?" Zhu Yuanzhang, who has a sharp eye, discovered the problem.

At this time, a skinny old man said: "Aren't you asking questions knowingly? If it weren't for you people, wouldn't we be eating food mixed with grit?

The court provides relief, but you lazy scoundrels are robbing us of the rations we need to survive.

There are also those locals who look down on us and pretend to be poor people like us, but they don’t even get enough food for us.

My poor old woman will starve to death!"

The old man glared at Zhu Yuanzhang, his cloudy eyes full of tears, "His Royal Highness King Wu asked people to add gravel to the food in order to give us a hot meal.

In this way, you scoundrels won't come and steal our food.

Although there is gravel, just pick it out slowly.

Even a useless old man like me can have a full meal!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was ashen, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes, but it was not for the old man.

What he valued most was the victims, but he never expected that someone would do such a thing under his nose.

Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed his anger and said: "Isn't there anyone in charge?"

"Who cares?"

The old man smiled mockingly, "Old man, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. If you want to steal our rations, then you have to ask everyone if they agree!"

At that moment, dozens of people stared at Zhu Yuanzhang fiercely.

Mao Xiang's hand was already on the handle of the knife.

Zhu Yuanzhang retreated at this moment.

When he arrived at a place with few people, Zhu Yuanzhang could no longer suppress the murderous intention in his heart, "Let the people from the Guards Department check and see who are robbing the victims of the food they need to survive. If they catch one, kill one, and if they catch two, kill them."

One pair.

Let us supervise the indifferent officials, we want to see how many brains they have and dare to be so indifferent to our people!"

Yang Xian knew that there were still more heads to be killed this time, so he hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the victims at the gate of Prince Wu's Mansion and was filled with emotion.

Mixing sand and gravel to eliminate scoundrels and protect the victims, generously providing relief to the victims and reducing the pressure on the court.

Although I don’t know where Zhu Jun’s money came from, even if Zhu Jun was really greedy for money, it can be regarded as taking it from the people and using it for the people.

At least he's not like those dogs who have made themselves fatter.

Originally he came to Zhu Jun to question him, but at this moment, he could no longer get angry.

However, he must figure out the origin of Zhu Jun's silver.

What if, as Li Shanren said, he would use the same tactics to bully others in the future?

But if not...

Then Cai Wen and his son should die!

Not only that, Li Shanren also needs to investigate carefully.

"Stay here, don't let a fly in, and tell the sixth man that if our eldest grandson is injured, we will never let him go!" After saying that, he turned around and left.

Wang Gou'er was stunned, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you not going to take the grandson back to the palace?"

"Do you want to be nagging?" Zhu Yuanzhang's look frightened Wang Gouer's heart.

Wang Gou'er bowed slightly, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and accompanied you to the tiger, which was absolutely correct.

Very few people can guess the emperor's thoughts.

Zhu Yuanzhang, on the other hand, thought that his eldest grandson had often lived here before, and nothing bad had ever happened to him.

After all, the youngest son and the oldest grandson are the ones who are the most cherished ones.

Since Zhu Jun has done some good things, I will let him go today and catch him tomorrow for questioning.

Disaster relief is still in progress, but the area outside Prince Wu's Mansion has been closely monitored.

"Your Highness, the people from the Guards Department have just arrived and asked you to take good care of the emperor's grandson. If the emperor's grandson is short of hair, Your Majesty will not be able to spare you!" Xun Busan said with a bitter face.

"Okay, stop beeping." Zhu Jun didn't expect that Lao Zhu would give face like this.

Could it be because of that article during the day?

"Uncle Liu, this red general is so fierce, much more powerful than your mighty general!" Zhu Yingxiong said.

Qinghe was reluctant to buy the Red General, otherwise Zhu Yingxiong would not be able to see the Red General fight against the mighty General.

"Do you like it?"

"I like it!" Zhu Yingxiong was confused.

"The Red General gave it to you, but it's all for fun, don't indulge!" Zhu Jun said, touching his head.

"Don't worry, Uncle Six!" Zhu Yingxiong jumped up excitedly.

No matter how smart or talented he is, in the final analysis he is just a child.

Little Fatty became anxious, "Uncle Six, I like it too!"

Zhu Jun pointed at the mighty general next to him who was being pressed to the ground by the red general and rubbed, "It's for you!"

"It's hair has all fallen out!" Little Fatty said with a look of disgust.

"Don't pull him down!" Zhu Jun said domineeringly to Li Ji: "Little Jiji, kill the mighty general and make soup, and give it to my eldest nephew!"

"Yes, I want it!" Little Fatty hugged the dying mighty general, touched its head and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely take care of you!"

Just as he was talking, a servant came over to announce, "Your Highness, someone from Prince Yan's Mansion has come to pick up Prince Yan!"
