Chapter 157 finally home
Zhu Hongsan is now homeless and has no time to watch the beautiful scenery along the way. He just came to the city and led everyone to eat Jinhua ham, which felt very ordinary. He was rushing most of the time.
On the way, I only entered the prefectures along the way for supplies when there was not enough supplies. It took me more than half a month to enter Jiangxi.
Zhu Hongsan entered Yushan County, Guangxin Prefecture, Jiangxi Province on the fourth day of July. Although Zhu Hongsan was in a hurry to go home, he didn't dare to walk too fast. After all, Old Man Feng was almost seventy years old, so it would be a problem to get it on the road.
Feng Ruoshu is the key to whether Zhu Hongsan can develop Guangdong in the next three years. If the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi and Governor-General of Guangdong were not on the way, Zhu Hongsan would take a lot of time to occupy Guangdong.
But now it is not on Zhu Hongsan's side. The Qing army is about to fight to Guangdong in one and a half years. I only have more than 6,000 troops now, which is not enough for the Qing army to get stuck in the gaps.
Zhu Hongsan was anxious, but old man Feng Ruoshu and Feng still insisted on traveling around the mountains and rivers. He got up and went to bed early every night, and went to see the scenic spots and historical sites. When he was happy, he even wrote a poem. His apprentice Wang Yunchang and two masters around him were still trying to hold their feet. Zhu Hongsan was so angry that he was so angry that he was so angry that he was so angry that he was so angry that he was so angry that he was so angry that he had never seen him.
Zhu Hongsan can still tolerate all these things. The most annoying old man Feng Ruoshu still wants Zhu Hongsan to get aphrodisiacs for him. Zhu Hongsan looked at the toad he caught and wanted to hold it on Old Feng's head.
The team moved forward slowly. Zhu Hongsan looked at Feng Ruoshu eating the aphrodisiac made from a toad every day and cursed in his heart: "Why don't you kill you, you bastard?"
The team finally arrived at Ganzhou on July 26, the southern gate of Jiangxi.
Zhu Hongsan remembered that a big war broke out here later, and took advantage of the opportunity of the team stopping the supply to enter the city to take a look. At this time, Feng Ruoshu came to Zhu Hongsan and said, "Lord, can you find a doctor after entering the city?"
When Zhu Hongsan heard this, he felt happy. What happened to you, the old guy, finally?
But on the surface, he had to pretend to be concerned and asked, "Sir, are you feeling uncomfortable? Have you taken too much medicine?"
Feng Ruoshu blushed and said, "Don't speculate, lord, it's not that I have something to do with my health, it may be that I am happy inside."
Zhu Hongsan was stunned. Unexpectedly, this old guy was very powerful and could still get a child when he was almost seventy. Has he asked someone to help?
Because Zhang Jiayu was removed from office, he was temporarily hired by Zhu Hongsan as his master and was purchased by all the people. Feng Ruoshu had talked with Zhu Hongsan many times about this matter, so he kept him away from Zhang Jiayu.
Zhu Hongsan thought to himself: "Old man Feng asked me to stay away from him, who will settle the score? You won't do it if you ask your apprentice to come." So Zhu Hongsan never listened to Feng Ruoshu.
However, Zhang Jiayu was very grateful. He had taken care of these royal families when he was the top scholar before. As the ruling class, he naturally had to be superior.
But now Zhang Jiayu has become a stinky dog shit himself, and everyone is clamoring in Nanjing. In this team, other scholars hide far away when they see him. Only Zhu Hongsan, the King of Chu, can not dislike Zhang Jiayu when he is unhappy, so Zhang Jiayu is very grateful to Zhu Hongsan.
Zhu Hongsan knew what happened to Zhang Jiayu in the future. This person might have suffered losses in his personal morality, but there was absolutely no problem with righteousness, so he also entrusted Zhang Jiayu with important tasks.
Zhu Hongsan called Zhang Jiayu over and whispered: "The old man is very powerful. He can still make a child when he is seventy. It seems that the toad aphrodisiac is useful. When making medicine in the future, make double portions and leave one for me."
Zhang Jiayu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll understand."
Zhu Hongsan nodded and arranged for someone to follow Zhang Jiayu to the city to buy and find a doctor for Miss Chen San. He led Zhu Hongyi and a few people to stroll around Ganzhou City to watch the terrain.
Ganzhou Prefecture is located at the intersection of Zhangshui and Gongshui, and the terrain is mainly mountains and hills. Ganzhou City has four city gates, but the city scale is not as large as Huguang and Nanzhili Fucheng. It is equivalent to the size of a county town.
The population of Ganzhou Prefecture City was less than 50,000. At this time, Zhang Xianzhong had just finished the disaster in Jiangxi. Although Ganzhou did not suffer any military disasters, a large number of refugees from the north went south, and there were 50,000 or 60,000 outside Ganzhou City.
Zhu Hongsan asked someone to inquire and came back and said that a large number of refugees had gone south to Guangdong.
Zhu Hongsan nodded secretly, it seemed that his development would not be short of labor. Zhu Hongsan asked someone to spread the news that Guangzhou and Dongguan were prosperous, and the local government also sent food to them and asked them to join forces to go south to Dongguan.
As for how many of these people can live to Dongguan, this is not Zhu Hongsan. After seeing life and death in this troubled world, Zhu Hongsan has become more and more cold-blooded.
In this era, Jiangxi was still very cold in winter. It was already July and the weather began to get colder. It was easy to freeze to death without food and clothing in winter. So when some refugees heard this, many people began to leave Ganzhou and go south to Dongguan.
Zhu Hongsan stood by and looked at the effect was good, and said to Zhu Hongyi: "Brother, when I saw a large group of refugees along the way, I would send someone to spread the news."
Zhu Hongyi bit and showed that he understood.
Ganzhou City is very small, and Zhu Hongsan took an hour to walk around. After reading it, Zhu Hongsan found that if the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were used to attack the city, there were no 100,000 people who could not be captured. This place was adjacent to water on three sides and backed by mountains on the other side, which was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
In addition, the climate in Jiangxi is different from that in the Northeast. If you don’t adapt to this place, you can kill many people. It seems that some people in later generations said that after the Qing Dynasty occupied Beijing, there was no longer a system of dispatching the Eight Banners of Manchus. The entire Southern Ming Dynasty was fought by Manchu generals and traitors. This statement is very credible.
After reading Ganzhou Zhu Hongsan thought this kind of speech was very reasonable.
After a while, Zhu Hongsan, who had no idea, led the people back to the camp and happened to see Feng Ruoshu coming out with a smile on his face to send a doctor.
When Zhu Hongsan saw Feng Ruoshu's smile, he knew it must be good news. Zhu Hongsan stepped forward and bowed: "It seems that he wants to congratulate his uncle. This is a child in old age."
Feng Ruoshu smiled and said, "I thank you lord here."
Looking at Feng Ruoshu's proud look, Zhu Hongsan cursed in his heart: "This shameless person, this will be a shameless person in the future. Can he still laugh?"
Next, I continued to rush. This time, Miss Chen San was diagnosed with pregnancy, and there were only two pregnant women in the princess Zhu Mai. Zhu Hongsan really didn't dare to rush on the road quickly.
It is okay in Zhejiang, the roads are flat, and some places can still be transported by water. However, after passing through Ganzhou, it is all mountainous areas. Yuling, one of the five ridges, is at the intersection of Jiangxi and Guangdong. It is also a must-pass road for Zhu Hongsan and his journey.
It took Zhu Hongsan, a tour from Ganzhou to Nanxiong Prefecture, Guangdong, and his party took nearly a month. It took him to leave Ganzhou on July 27 and arrive at Nanxiong Prefecture on August 20.
Looking at Zhu Hongsan, Nanxiong Prefecture City, she was really crying. She originally planned to go to Dongguan before August 15th. Unexpectedly, she would not arrive in Nanxiong at the end of August. When would she get home?
The group came outside Nanxiong Prefecture and saw a group of people standing outside the city, all of whom were officials. Zhu Hongsan wondered, did the local officials come to greet him when they knew the letter?
When I came closer, I realized that these guys were here to welcome their immediate boss Feng Ruoshu.
Feng Ruoshu came out to greet these officials one by one. What made Zhu Hongsan angry was that these stinky old Jiushou heard that he was the Queen of Chu looked at him with his nostrils.
Even if they saw the unlucky Zhang Jiayu, the officials bowed their hands, and they just seemed to have not seen Zhu Hongsan. Seeing the expressions of these officials, they would still give Feng Jianshe to the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, or they would come up and beat him up to him.
Zhu Hongsan cursed in his heart: "The damn thing is that the young master is older and has a little temper. I want to kill you stinky old ninths in the past."
When Zhu Hongsan saw this, Feng Ruoshu must not leave. Zhu Hongsan thought about it and was really unreliable to him, and there were a lot of things in his family.
Zhu Hongsan found an opportunity to say to Feng Ruoshu: "Uncle, you and your female relatives are walking slowly behind you. I will take the team of people first. I am really worried about the other side of the house."
Feng Ruoshu also saw that Zhu Hongsan was very anxious and said, "Okay, lord, let's go first. I will write to you when I go to Zhaoqing Mansion." After that, he took out four letters of appointment, which were the letters of appointment of the four prefects who handed over to Zhu Hongsan.
After taking it, Zhu Hongsan did not enter the city, leaving 100 people to escort the female family. The others and Zhu Hongsan rushed to Dongguan.
The team was naturally fast without bringing the old and weak. Zhu Hongsan and his party passed by Shaozhou Prefecture, Yingde and Zengcheng, and finally returned to Dongguan on the fifth day of September.
