After Zhu Hongsan made arrangements, he led his personnel to Dongbianmen.

Zhu Hongsan and his party came to Beijing from the official road, and Zuoanmen in the outer city should enter the fastest. But now the bandits are coming, which makes the whole city of Beijing panic. All thirteen city gates are closed. Only the east and west gates are open regularly.

Zhu Hongsan and others approached Beijing and saw that there was no one guarding the city wall. Zhu Hongsan asked, "Ma Quan, aren't the bandits coming? Why isn't anyone standing guard?"

Ma Quan turned around and said, "The head family, there are now plague in Beijing, and many people have died. Several alleys in the outer city are dead. I think Beijing doesn't have to wait for the bandits to come, and I will die."

Zhu Hongsan saw a post in his previous life saying that Li Zicheng was defeated by a stone because the army was infected with the plague in Beijing. Otherwise, how could his 400,000 troops fighting south and north be defeated by the Qing Dynasty?

Zhu Hongsan believes that this statement is unreliable. If you lose, you will lose. Why do you find some reasons? If you have the ability to rush outside the pass, you will kill all the big braids. Then write whatever history you want.

Zhu Hongsan posted this idea on the website in later generations, and was criticized by a group of emperors. Zhu Hongsan was angry and scolded him, causing him to be banned for half a month.

Now that he heard that there was a plague, how could Zhu Hongsan not be shocked? Zhu Hongsan quickly told his own people not to drink raw water after entering the city, and to boil it for five minutes before drinking. He also washed his hands before eating, and never contacted mice and patients. He was not at ease, so he ordered Ma Quan to make 200 thick cotton masks immediately after entering the city.

After the notice, the team had arrived outside Beijing City. Ma Quanlai passed through the outer city, like Dongbianmen to the east.

When we arrived at the Dongbian Gate in a corner of the outer city, a large group of people entering and leaving the city were lined up at the door, and more than a dozen half-dead defenders stood at the door.

Half of the teams leaving the city were ox carts that transported dead people. Seeing the dead people's lymph nodes swollen and turned black and purple, Zhu Hongsan felt half cold when he saw this. It seemed that there was really a plague in Beijing. It was the bubonic plague with the highest mortality rate, which was the black death disease in Europe.

Zhu Hongsan and his men hid far away, and they dared to enter the city after the corpse transport team walked away. Ma Quan squeezed out the crowd and came to the gatekeeper's door to show the Feng family's token. The soldiers immediately rushed away the crowd and let Zhu Hongsan enter the city.

Feng Ruoshu is now the Minister of Dali Temple, equivalent to the procurator-general of the procuratorate in later generations and one of the nine serious ministers. He has a high position in Beijing, so these gatekeepers naturally know the importance. He doesn't even look at these tough servants.

After entering Dongbianmen, there is the outer city of Beijing. The outer city is a large area south of the Beijing Railway Station in later generations. The housing prices in this place were 70,000 to 80,000 yuan per square meter, but in the Ming Dynasty, there were still large areas of farmland and wasteland. The royal temple of heaven and Xiannong Temple were built in the outer city.

Dongbianmen is about three miles away from Chongwenmen, and he arrived quickly on horseback. There are workshops outside Chongwenmen, which is the industrial area of ​​later generations. Therefore, the tax customs of Chongwenmen is famous nationwide. However, Zhu Hongsan and others have the certificate of the Feng family, so it is easy to enter.

When you enter, you will be the official city of Beijing. When Zhu Hongsan entered the city, he saw that the door was closed everywhere, and the only one that opened was the coffin shop. At this time, business was good here.

Zhu Hongsan said to Zhu Hongyi: "Brother, please bring ten people, go to the shop to get the muskets, and let's go to the Feng family to gather."

Zhu Hongyi nodded and took the man and Ma Quan to go.

The Feng Mansion brought the others to the Feng Mansion in Tianshuijing Hutong. The gate of the Feng Mansion is really grand, with two stone drums at the door and seven-level terrazzo steps. The door was cleaned spotlessly. Two Jinshi flagpoles stood on the left side of the door, proving that two Jinshis had been born in the old Feng family. The door was closed, and there was a very large plaque on the door, which read the Feng Mansion.

He got off the horse at the local Feng Mansion and said, "Son-in-law, please wait a while, I'll go and call the door." After that, he walked to the side door and called the door.

Feng Fu shouted, "Open the door, I am Feng Fu, who is guarding the door?" After a while, the side door opened, revealing a young face. Seeing Feng Fu, he said, "Dad, it's you who are back."

Feng Fu said, "Xiao Wu, today is you guarding the gate. Hurry up, let me go in and report to the master, the son-in-law is here." After that, Feng Fu walked in.

After more than ten minutes, the middle door opened wide, and a middle-aged man in his thirties came out. He came to Zhu Hongsan and bowed deeply and said, "My uncle is here, Feng Run is polite."

It seems that this is the son of Feng Ziyong's eldest brother. I heard that he is studying in the Imperial College.

Zhu Hongsan stepped forward and helped Feng Run up and said, "It's all his family. Is my uncle at home?"

Feng Run said: "My grandfather is at home, please ask my uncle to come in and talk."

Zhu Hongsan said: "These are all servants I brought. There are eleven people coming in the future. They will go to get the muskets."

When Feng Run heard the word "Mustgage" and said, "Please come in, uncle, I will arrange the residences of all the servants."

Zhu Hongsan followed Feng Run into Feng Mansion. Feng Ruoshu was a minister of Dali Temple and a senior official of the third rank. He was about to enter the cabinet when he went up. However, Feng Ruoshu had poor academic performance back then and did not enter the Hanlin Academy. So now the third rank is over.

But this is already a phoenix among people. However, after entering, Zhu Hongsan found that his home was not as bold as the gate. There were only 30% of the yard and about ten rooms inside. Feng Run said next to him: "Don't make a joke, my grandfather has always been poor, and he lives in a bad place."

Zhu Hongsan knew that Feng Run was talking nonsense. Feng Ruoshu had been a governor in Henan for nearly eight years, but could he still be poor? His family was given tens of thousands of acres of fertile land in Chengdu by God?

But Zhu Hongsan knew that these stinky old ninth groups had such virtues, and they all had to pretend to be like saints. Just like the clothes they wore, they were all wearing animals. However, at this time, animals were not derogatory, but a real complimentary word means that you are capable and able to become an official.

Zhu Hongsan and Feng Run came to the central hall and saw an old man sitting in the middle. The old man had three beards, a blue shirt, and a male enhancement on his head. He sat there without anger.

Zhu Hongsan knew that his wife was cheap, and his uncle Feng Ruoshu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and said, "Uncle, mistress is here."

Feng Ruoshu looked at the young man in front of him. This was what his second son called Guangwu Liu Xiu? He looked like an ordinary person.

Feng Ruoshu had actually received a letter from his second son Feng Ziyong, knowing that they had gone to Guangdong and did not reply because the old man was angry.

The reason is very simple. Feng Ziyong's letter said that because of the emergency time, he did not go to Chengdu Prefecture to pick up his mother and elder brother's family. Old man Feng has been in the officialdom all his life, and his eyes are empty.

Old Man Feng knew Feng Ziyi’s little thoughts. Feng Laoer was not favored by his legitimate mother when he was a child, and his mother was killed. When he was a child, his aunt was raised and he had no feelings for this legitimate mother and eldest brother.

But no matter how much he hates it, he is his legitimate mother and elder brother. Can he forget about family affection? Now that Zhang Xianzhong has captured Chengdu, it seems that Feng Ruoshu's family in Chengdu will not be protected. It would be strange if Old Feng has a good face to Feng Ziyong.

Old Man Feng snorted and said, "Is that evil boy happy in Guangdong? Why do you think of me, an immortal?"

Zhu Hongsan knew the reason when he saw Feng Ruoshu like this. He opened his mouth and said, "Uncle, my second cousin is very happy in Guangdong. Before the Chinese New Year, he had a son-in-law who just married the daughter of the governor of Hengzhou Xu Dali to fill the house. He was so happy in his life."

Feng Ruoshu was so angry that he didn't let go of his anger and said, "Then what are you doing? Do you want to piss me off when I say this?"

Zhu Hongsan said: "My second cousin said that when a son is happy and happy, no matter how his father is, he is not good at seeing him. This is to let the son-in-law come to pick up his uncle, and he also told me that it is best to get it. If it really doesn't work, don't force it."

Feng Ruoshu was so angry that his whole body was shaking and unable to speak. Feng Run said next to him: "My second uncle really said these unfaithful and unfilial words?"

Seeing Feng Ruoshu getting angry like this, Zhu Hongsan was afraid that he would die of anger. He continued, "Don't calm down. I just said something nonsense. How could my second cousin, a well-educated person, say such things?"

Feng Ruoshu said angrily: "Then why are you, a kid, saying these words? Are you looking for happiness with me?"

Zhu Hongsan said, "Uncle was relieved. When I entered the room just now, I saw my uncle getting angry. I was afraid that anger would be entangled and would be unfavorable to my uncle's health. Then I said something slutty and made my uncle's anger come out. The son-in-law was rude."
