No matter how Qian Qianyi struggled in the officialdom, our Zhu Hongsan returned to Suzhou with the snatched Qian Yuting. The three ladies on the boat didn't say anything when they saw Zhu Hongsan and many other women, plus Qian Yuting's personality was weak, and she got along very well with the three of them.

After the matter was over, Zhu Hongsan set off with the fleet, passed Wujiang County, Suzhou Prefecture, and entered Zhejiang Province.

The canal is divided into three roads, all the way to Jiaxing, all the way to Huzhou Mansion, and all the way to Hangzhou Mansion.

Because since Zhang Juzheng's reform, no tax in kind has been collected instead of cash. In the past, a large number of cash crops were planted in Zhejiang, a grain-producing area, so now Zhejiang's grain output has been surpassed by Huguang.

But in this way, Zhejiang is also a famous land of fish and rice in the country, and along the way, Zhu Hongsan saw that most people had no problem with food and clothing, and it was also common to wear silk and satin.

Zhu Hongsan secretly said in his heart: "This Nanzhili plus Huguang is really rich, and whoever occupies this place is really the emperor's land when the world is in turmoil." ”

Eight days after leaving Suzhou, we arrived at the end of the Grand Canal, which is Hangzhou. In fact, the Grand Canal is as far as Shangyu County, Shaoxing Prefecture, but the canal over there is mainly a grain river, and it is impossible to take a big boat.

Zhu Hongsan's decision was to leave the ship from Hangzhou and go ashore via Jiangxi into Guangdong. In order to avoid Fujian Zheng Zhilong.

Zhu Hongsan also asked Yan Qingshan about this, and he also agreed to go this way. After all, Yan Siqi has only been dead for nineteen years, and Zheng Zhilong's subordinates must know Yan Qingshan, so it is better to take the land route for the sake of insurance.

When he arrived in Yangzhou, Zhu Hongsan asked people to sell the ship for several thousand taels of silver. The more than 100 captured shipwrights on the ship wanted to return to the north, but they were all left behind by Zhu Hongsan's coercion and temptation. Although these guys are canal boatmen, they have some experience in begging for a living on the water.

The next thing is simple, prepare the carriage and horses, and wait for Feng Ruoshu to arrive in Yangzhou.

On June 12, the eighth day of Zhu Hongsan's arrival in Yangzhou, Old Man Feng was late.

Now this old guy is not an embarrassed person who fled from Beijing. In Nanjing, in the past few days, all the domestic servants and masters have been allocated. Don't look at Zhu Hongsan as stingy, but be generous to Old Man Feng, and allocate 5,000 taels of silver from the household department for activity funds.

Coupled with the bribes that Old Man Feng accepted in Nanjing, it was enough to have 10,000 taels of silver. Coupled with the hiring of three large ships, it was really a huge group of people.

Zhu Hongsan greeted him on the dock, and Old Man Feng saw Zhu Hongsan step forward and asked, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu has done a great thing!" ”

Zhu Hongsan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?" What happened to the Nanjing Imperial Court? ”

Feng Ruoshu said: "That's not true, but you robbed Qian Qianyi's silver and daughter to shake the Jingshi." ”

Zhu Hongsan smiled: "What did I think? It's all small scenes. ”

At this moment, a eunuch came down from the boat, saw Zhu Hongsan and said, "The king of Chu knelt down to accept the order!" ”

Zhu Hongsan still has his own holy decree when he hears it? Hurriedly knelt down and said, "Minister Zhu Hongsan received the order. ”

The eunuch saw that Zhu Hongsan knelt down and was stunned, and Zhu Hongsan listened patiently. And he got up, and took the decree, and gave the eunuch ten taels of silver.

Zhu Hongsan asked Feng Ruoshu: "Uncle, what are you talking about?" ”

Feng Ruoshu said with a smile: "It's wrong to say that you robbed Qian Qianyi's silver, let you return it to him." There is also the fact that it is not right to rob Qian Qianyi's daughter, but there is no way, and I can't ask for the old money back. I will give you the princess on the side, and the concubine Ma Xiaofang, and Ma Ruyan as the concubine. Your eldest son, Zhu Hai*, is the son. ”

In fact, Feng Ruoshu went to Ma Shiying to seal Zhu Hai* as the son, after all, Zhu Hongsan has a lot of wives in a mess, and it is really hard to say in the future if he doesn't set the position now.

Zhu Hongsan didn't think about this kind of dirty thing, in his heart, it was too early to decide that son would take over, and he would not be able to see what talent he had until he was twenty-five years old.

After Feng Ruoshu finished speaking, he took out another letter from his arms and said, "At this time, Qian Qianyi gave it to her daughter, you can send it." After speaking, three people were called from behind, a man and two little maids, and said: "At this time, Qian Qianyi's wife sent it from Changshu and prepared a servant for her daughter. ”

Zhu Hongsan saw that the cheap mother-in-law prepared well, and the servants prepared three.

At this time, all the people on the boat came down, and Zhu Hongsan saw that there were more than 100 people. He asked, "Uncle, where are so many family members?" Are you from Beijing? I thought: "Didn't the people in your hometown all let Zhang Xianzhong slaughter?" ”

Feng Ruoshu introduced Zhu Hongsan: "The first two are the masters I hired in Nanjing, this is Mr. Huang and this Mr. Liang. ”

After speaking, he called the two middle-aged men behind him and said, "You know this, Wang Yunchang Governor of Dongchang Mansion, my disciple." The one in the back is Zhang Jiayu, the champion of Chongzhen's sixteenth year. I just went south from Beijing, and this time I went home with my husband, and his home was in Dongguan County. ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded, the Zhang family is a big family in Dongguan, and Zhang Jiayu's brother is also a director of the board of directors of Dongguan Development Zone.

Zhu Hongsan stepped forward and said, "Why did Master Zhang go home when he was not an official in Nanjing?" ”

Zhang Jiayu sighed and didn't say anything.

Feng Ruoshu said: "I have time to talk to you about this matter." Are you all arranged in the city? ”

Zhu Hongsan originally thought that Feng Ruoshu would only have more than a dozen people, but he didn't expect that there were more than 100 people in the four families, and it seemed that he was going to set an inn.

Zhu Hongsan said: "I have already chartered three inns in the city, let's go into the city." After speaking, he led everyone into the city.

When he arrived at the inn, there was really no way, so Zhu Hongsan had to drive the guards out of the city, live in a tent outside the city with the pirates, and pour out the room to arrange for a few people's families to live.

Zhu Hongsan took the holy decree and Qian Qianyi's letter, and led the two servants of the Qian family to his courtyard to find Qian Yuting.

Qian Yuting was learning to play the piano with Bian Yujing, and when she saw Zhu Hongsan coming, the second daughter stood up and said, "The master is here." ”

Qian Yuting saw the three people behind Zhu Hongsan, and said happily: "Uncle Gui, Xiaoyu, Xiaocui, why are you here." ”

The three of them came to Qian Yuting to salute, and Qian Gui said, "Miss, Madame asked us to support you." I also brought a letter from Madame to Miss. ”

Qian Yuting took her mother's letter and opened it to see that it said that Qian Qianyi had cut off relations with her daughter in order to become an official for herself. But the Chen family can't forget his daughter, and let Qian Yuting rest assured that the Chen family will let Qian Qianyi change his mind when he has the opportunity.

And since you are married to Zhu Hongsan, you must be a good wife, teach your husband and children, be filial to your in-laws, and don't play with your lady's temper like at home.

Zhu Hongsan said on the side: "Tingting, long live the marriage, you and I are considered husband and wife, don't be sad in the future." ”

After speaking, he took out Qian Qianyi's letter and said, "This is given to you by your father, you can take it." ”

Qian Yuting took the letter, finished saluting Zhu Hong, and went down with the three servants.

Seeing Qian Yuting leave, Bian Yujing on the side said sourly: "Now that my husband is satisfied?" Another beauty has fallen into your hands. ”

Zhu Hongsan said with a smile: "She was snatched by me in revenge on Qian Qianyi, how can she compare with Saisai, Saisai is my favorite." ”

Bian Yujing said: "Husband is the best at rhetoric, do you say the same to the princess?" ”

Zhu Hongsan said: "I picked her up, how can she compare with Saisai." ”

After Zhu Hongsan finished speaking, he stood up and hugged Bian Yujing with his crossed hands and said, "Today, I will do my best to die for the race." After speaking, he hugged Bian Yujing and came to the bed.

It took an hour of busy work to satisfy Bian Yujing. Zhu Hongsan got up to find Qian Yuting.

Zhu Hongsan said that he didn't care about Qian Yuting, but after all, he was his own woman, and he couldn't say it without condolences.

When I came to Qian Yuting's room, I saw her crying with the two maids.

The two maids were scared half to death by Zhu Hongsan that day, and when they saw this demon king coming, they said, "Uncle is here." With that, the two escaped from the house.

Zhu Hongsan didn't take care of the two rings, came to Qian Yuting, picked up Qian Yuting and put it on his lap. Zhu Hongsan found that the beauties that conformed to the aesthetic views of the Ming Dynasty were also good, and the light ones could be put on his lap.

Zhu Hongsan touched Qian Yuting's little face and said, "Madam, what's wrong?" ”

Qian Yuting stopped crying and said, "My father's letter to me said that he broke off with me. ”

Zhu Hongsan scolded: "It would be nice to burn all this old guy's books at that time." ”

Qian Yuting said: "Don't scold my father, he is also helpless, the letter said that Ruan Dacheng said that the father-in-law of the clan cannot be the control, and my father can't help it." ”

Zhu Hongsan listened to it, it turned out to be like this.
