Chapter 248: Prosperous fiefs

Prince Chen has seen such scenes for a long time, and there is no other performance except embarrassment.

However, County Magistrate Cheng was stunned. He was not a fool. He had roughly guessed the identities of these people in a few words. He felt that he was hesitant when he was making trouble.

His Highness King Zhao is a nobleman, but he just bumped into him... this... would it be unhappy to go to the ceremony at this time? But if he didn't meet, he asked about it later, but it was very inappropriate.

The princess' anger faded, let go of Zhu Gaosui, and sneered, "I'll deal with you later." She also ordered the maid beside her and said, "Go and find a washboard, the bigger the better."

Hao Fenglou hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, this is a bad word. The bigger the washboard, the better. The smaller the better, the better. The smaller the knees, the fewer the places you can touch. As a last resort, you have to kneel straight, and the weight of your body is pressed between these knees. The mystery of it can only be felt by my sister-in-law."

The princess smiled and said, "Okay, I want to try." After that, she pulled Zhu Gaosui and said with her eyebrows: "Let's go, don't be embarrassed here."

Zhu Gaosui said righteously: "Why am I leaving? It just so happens that people can see the face of this shrew. What am I afraid of you, what am I afraid of you?"

The princess pressed the handle of the knife around her waist with her hand, and saw Zhu Gaosui running away with a whirlwind, his lingering voice still surround the hall: "I'm afraid...you...what......"

County Magistrate Cheng just wanted to dig off his eyes. Is this considered a secret in the palace or something in the palace... After knowing, is there any possibility of being killed and silenced?

County Magistrate Cheng was timid and immediately turned his eyes to other places, pretending that he had not seen anything, and his heart was full of excitement, and he just hated himself for being a shame, but he wanted to come.

Although Prince Chen seemed to be used to it, he felt a little weird. Seeing the princess leaving, he stood up and smiled and said to Hao Fenglou, "Hao Qianshi, you are here just right. This is the magistrate of County Cheng..."

Hao Fenglou glanced at County Magistrate Cheng and sat down.

County Magistrate Cheng could not hide, so he had to stand up with a wry smile and said, "The minister Cheng Wen has met Hao Qianshi."

Hao Fenglou smiled at him and it was nearly one month since he left the capital. Now he is only a short walk away from Annan, and a lot of things have happened during this period, the most of which are all kinds of life and death between Princess Zhao and Prince Zhao.

Originally, Zhu Gaosui wanted to come alone, under the banner of Annan's dangerous guise, and wanted to come out and have fun with Hao Fenglou. Who knew that this Princess Zhao was a descendant of the general. Not only did he use a good flying knife, but he was also very skilled and brave, but he didn't know what method he used to persuade Empress Xu, so he followed him.

There were only a few female relatives in the team, except Princess Zhao, Zhu Zhiling, and a few girls. Fortunately, they all had extraordinary knowledge, so there was no inconvenience. It was a leisurely journey for Hao Fenglou, and it was rare to travel around the mountains and rivers, just like going to spring.

But for Zhu Gaosui, it was a catastrophe.

However, this has nothing to do with Hao Fenglou.

Hao Fenglou looked at the county magistrate Cheng and couldn't help but say, "I wonder when the bridge will be repaired. Will it be fine tomorrow?"

As soon as he came, he asked the bridge, which made County Magistrate Cheng feel more and more that the burden on his shoulders had sunk. He hurriedly said, "I'm afraid tomorrow..."

Seeing him being squeamish, Hao Fenglou didn't mind and said, "After crossing the bridge, we have to rush to Luzhou, so the bridge must be repaired as soon as possible. It cannot be delayed."

Luzhou...

When the magistrate Cheng suddenly heard the word "Luzhou", he suddenly remembered that the man named Hao seemed to have a title of Luzhou Marquis. Cheng County Magistrate Cheng couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, sir, I will do my best. I will definitely not delay the magistrate's affairs. In fact, there are indeed many people in Luzhou. The imperial court is a must-pass place for the imperial court to conquer Annan, so many grains and grass are piled up there, and many merchants are also entrenched there, delivering and trading, which is very lively. It was originally a barren land, but now it is very different. Many merchants regard it as a treasure pot."

In fact, there were some things that County Magistrate Cheng did not say, that it was an important place for illegal transactions. The Ming army looted the population in front of him, so they all took them to Luzhou. After all, merchants did not dare to go deep into Annan to buy people, and even if they bought them, they would not dare to take them away. However, Luzhou was at the junction of the two countries and the merchants bought them directly. Once they left Luzhou, they were in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and they were not afraid of these bought slaves.

Hao Fenglou had heard a lot of things about Luzhou and said, "Oh, what else do you know?"

County Magistrate Cheng said: "In fact, there is not much knowledge about the news in Annan. It is difficult to tell whether it is true or false. Many of them were brought by merchants. As for those merchants, they may not be taken seriously."

Hao Fenglou was quite expecting Luzhou, and nodded and said, "Can Luzhou station troops and horses?"

County Magistrate Cheng said: "There are some military horses stationed, but not many. However, there are many military horses stationed in the area of ​​Lang Son. Because Lang Son is not far from Luzhou, as long as you guard Lang Son, Luzhou can rest assured."

Hao Fenglou nodded and then had no interest in continuing to talk to County Magistrate Cheng.

County Magistrate Cheng saw the clues and quickly stood up and said, "It's late at night, so I dare not bother you, so I'll say goodbye first."

Hao Fenglou smiled and said, "Sir, walk slowly."

County Magistrate Cheng was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something and said, "Yes, there is something happening there recently. I heard that the envoy who was with the army suddenly arrived in Lang San the day before yesterday. When the envoy arrived in Lang San, he might as well go to Luzhou. If he ran into this envoy Wu, he might as well say hello."

Hao Fenglou said, "Okay." He couldn't help laughing. No wonder he was so miserable that he was sent to Guangxi to be the county magistrate. He was a remote mountain village and had no good news. If he knew what he had done in the capital, he would never dare to let him say hello.

After seeing off County Magistrate Cheng, Prince Chen had no intention of leaving.

Prince Chen was in a good mood. When he arrived here, he had heard a lot of news that Annan had roughly pacified. Apart from some bandits everywhere, the cities had almost been recovered by the Ming army. The only thing he had to do now was to go to the capital and be his Annan King. Prince Chen's mood can be imagined.

Prince Chen looked at Hao Fenglou with a smile and said, "I wonder when we can arrive at the capital?"

Hao Fenglou said, "I'm afraid that your highness will be less, so Mr. Hao needs to go to Luzhou first, arrange some things in Luzhou before sending His Highness to the capital."

Prince Chen was so heartbroken that Hao Fenglou was delayed all the way, which made Prince Chen a little angry, but he had to laugh and said: "Of course, everyone obeyed Hao Chenshi's arrangements, but can Hao Chenshi remember that this king said that once I call Wang Annan, I will entrust Hao Chenshi Liangshan and other counties. Hao Chenshi has a life-saving grace for Xiao Wang, and now he has traveled thousands of miles to escort Xiao Wang back to his country. He has no way to repay his kindness. What Xiao Wang said before still counts."

Hao Fenglou knew that Prince Chen was afraid of something unexpected happening in the middle of the way and wanted to comfort him. He smiled and said, "Your Highness has a rest soon. Maybe the bridge will be repaired tomorrow and you still have to hurry."

Prince Chen was a little disappointed when he saw that Hao Fenglou was neither salty nor indifferent, but he cheered up and said, "Hao Chenshi also went to bed early."

Prince Chen left, but a few sneers appeared on Hao Fenglou's face. He could see that Prince Chen was very urgent. Logically speaking, this was understandable, but Hao Fenglou always felt that Prince Chen was not simple.

But now Prince Chen is in his own hands after all, so it doesn't matter. Even if he enters Annan, he still needs to rely on the Ming army. No matter what abacus he has, it will be false in front of the powerful Ming army.

I was speechless all night, and early the next morning, someone came to knock on the door in Hao Fenglou's bedroom.

Hao Fenglou walked down the floor with his shoes and opened the door impatiently: "Who did it early in the morning..."

As soon as the door opened, Zhu Gaosui saw swollen eyes and trembling legs. Zhu Gaosui's face was full of tears, and tears on his face were facing Hao Fenglou's eyes.

Hao Fenglou couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, this..."

Zhu Gaosui sighed and did not say anything like you cheated me, but said quietly: "My legs are swollen, please help me in."

Hao Fenglou had to help him in, and couldn't help but look outside the door, for fear that Princess Zhao would come with her.

Zhu Gaosui sat in Hao Feng's building, took a deep breath, but said, "I have understood a truth after kneeling on the washboard all night."

Hao Fenglou poured a cup of overnight tea from the teapot and placed it in front of Zhu Gaosui, saying, "What does your highness understand?"

Zhu Gaosui was not polite, so he drank directly, and then said, "A man who is alive must listen to his wife."

Hao Fenglou was also drinking and drinking on his own. When he heard Zhu Gaosui's words, he couldn't help but spray out a mouthful of tea. Damn, your spirit has disappeared in just one night. If you, a guy, fell into the hands of the Annan people, wouldn't you become a traitor immediately?

He was deeply despised Zhu Gaosui, but said without saying anything on the surface: "Your Highness said it very well. In fact, this has been the case. Why did Your Highness reach this situation? My sister-in-law is a true character and treats people sincerely. You listen to her so much. If she asks you to go east, you go east and call you a woman. If you ask you to pee, you squat and pee, you will naturally be at peace. She said, "You must say 2. Isn't this unhappy for yourself? Since you have learned it, that's great. I hope you can be harmonious."

Originally, Zhu Gaosui agreed with Hao Fenglou's words, but later his words became increasingly unpleasant. What does this mean that I should be a woman? This sentence was so harsh that he couldn't help saying, "You can't listen to her everything, what I mean..."

Zhu Gaosui stopped talking.

At this time, the door was knocked open.
