On the eighth day of the first month of April, the Fuwang Mansion had not yet been built, so Zhu Houwei, who was not used to living in the Ten Wangfu, was ready to go to Tianjin, and basically waited until he came back, and the Fuwang Mansion was almost completed.

In the lobby of the Ten Princes' Mansion, "Alas, I told my father that I would not be allowed to go, and I would go to court tomorrow." Zhu Houzhao said with a bitter face.

Zhu Houwei smiled a little gloating, "It's okay, I'll help you bring back delicious and fun, I won't forget you." Zhu Houzhao showed a somewhat flattering smile, and reached out to hook Zhu Houwei's shoulder, "I don't need anything else, can you get a few cannons to my East Palace?" The muskets are a little tired of playing. ”

Zhu Houwei angrily pushed away Zhu Houzhao's arm, "As soon as I say this, I get angry, you say that you have nothing to do with why you shoot in the East Palace every day, and my mother and relatives have said that I have been several times, and I blame me for giving you the musket." You can shoot targets, but you prefer to shoot live animals, and there is no need for butchers in the palace now. Please, can you not kill, the compassionate heart of the gentleman who is far away from the kitchen? Also the cannon, where are you going to fight, what are you going to do to demolish the imperial city? ”

Zhu Houzhao "aggrieved" and said, "Aren't I bored, I just deal with government affairs every day, and my head is big when I listen to those ministers quoting scriptures, and I still have firearms, and I fire a few shots a day, and the whole person is a lot easier." ”

Before Zhu Houwei could say anything, his sister Zhu Xiuning's voice sounded outside the door, "Second brother, are you okay, it's time for us to go." How to grind, I don't look like a man at all. ”

Zhu Houzhao looked at his sister who came in with Bai Yulian playfully, and teased, "Yo, my sister has grown up and knows what a man is like." Tell your eldest brother what else is not like a man. ”

Zhu Xiuning immediately stomped her foot, shook Bai Yulian's arm, and said coquettishly, "Sister-in-law, look, my eldest brother bullied me." Bai Yulian also pretended to glare at Zhu Houzhao fiercely, but Zhu Houzhao was happy.

Zhu Houwei looked at the eldest brother, and Zhengse said, "Do you want Zheng Zhihao to help you find it in North Korea, and then ask Daddy to find you a few North Korean beauties." Zhu Houzhao immediately couldn't get nervous, glanced at Bai Yulian, saw the princess's still smiling face, and said seriously, "No need, now is the time to learn to deal with state affairs, how can I have the heart to think about this, I have Yulian alone." ”

"Oh~" Zhu Houwei and Zhu Xiuning coaxed at the same time, Bai Yulian blushed slightly, but still said calmly, "Don't leave quickly, it's too late to spend the night on the road, if you don't leave, I'll discuss with my mother-in-law, and find you a princess and a concubine." ”

Zhu Houwei immediately grabbed his sister's little hand, and shouted in his mouth, "It's not good to stay here for a long time, and thirty-six plans are the best plan." Running quickly towards the door, Zhu Xiuning happily followed this second brother of the living treasure.

When they arrived at the gate, the carriage was ready, and under the eyes of Zhu Houzhao and Bai Yulian, the brother and sister got into the carriage. Zhu Houwei suddenly remembered something and asked, "I remember that my things were loaded into a carriage, why is the convoy at the gate so long." How many things you bring. The self-conscious Zhu Xiuning skillfully opened the cabinet of the carriage, took out a snack from it and stuffed it into his mouth, and replied without raising his head, "There are not many of mine, about five or six." Qingmei, Xiaohuan, Hongling, you can also eat, don't save money for my second brother. "The carriages are all four-wheeled carriages, which can hold a little or five tons of things, and five or six carriages are not a small number. Zhu Houwei swallowed his saliva, "You are amazing." ”

The carriage procession has walked on the official road leading to Tianjin, Zhu Houwei lifted the curtain of the car and looked around, only to see the clean and smooth cement road, the car traveler is unable to see the end at a glance, the roadway is divided into three, and the middle and right lanes are connected together. The left lane is called the noble road by the people, and it is generally the high-ranking officials and nobles who can go this way, but if there is no one before and after, some convoys of goods will also go here to overtake, and then return to the middle lane or the right lane in the right place, which seems to have become a rule, and Zhu Houwei feels that there is nothing bad about this, it is better than everyone is scrambling, and finally leads to traffic jams.

Zhu Houwei They are walking in the right lane, because there is no one in front and behind, the speed of the convoy rises at once, looking at the transport truck fleet next to him, Zhu Houwei's heart ignites a perverted pleasure. But soon, Zhu Houwei put down the curtains of the car, because the smell outside was not very good. Although the horses and livestock were placed behind what resembled crotch cloths, the smell of excrement still condensed on the crowded official road. From time to time, people would dump this excrement into the large vats next to the road, and the people of Huangzhuang would take care of the large vats, which were good things for the farmland.

Closing the car curtain, Zhu Houwei saw his sister staring at him with a wrinkled face, "What's wrong?" Zhu Xiuning immediately complained, "Second brother, what kind of curtain are you opening, the smell outside has come in, and a few of us are so smoked that we are about to vomit." ”

Zhu Houwei glanced around and found that several maids were wrinkling their faces and pleading to themselves wordlessly, but Zhu Houwei rolled his eyes, "Qingmei, please don't stuff things into your mouth at this time, okay, are you really smoked?" I don't think you eat more than anyone else. The others also turned their heads to look, and Qingmei was a little embarrassed to chew quickly while wiping the fine crumbs from her mouth. Greengage. Zhu Xiuning shouted first, and then the other two women punished Qingmei, who had many small hands "growing" on her body, which were wreaking havoc in her itchy position. Zhu Houwei's trick was very sophisticated, and he smiled and took a sip of tea on the small table.

Because the departure was not very early, and the road did not run very fast, even if I hurried overnight, it was not until eight or nine o'clock the next day that I came to the station of the Tianjin water and land camp. After getting out of the carriage, I saw Zhu Yuan waiting with a few familiar faces of Zhu Houwei, Zhu Houwei also got out of the carriage with a smile, and before he could say a few words, Zhu Xiuning complained behind him, "Second brother, what are you doing running so fast, come and grasp the help down, hurry up." Faced with his sister's alternative coquettishness, Zhu Houwei had no choice but to turn around and help her down.

After getting out of the carriage, Zhu Xiuning came to the spirit, pulling Hongling, Xiaohuan and Qingmei were about to run away, Xiaohuan saw Zhu Houwei nodding, and then walked together, with guards guarding by the side, nothing happened.

Zhu Houwei walked towards the shipyard, while Zhu Yuan and the others followed behind him, talking as they walked. Zhu Houwei asked, "How many warships are there in the land and water battalion at present?" Zhu Yuan replied with a smile, "Second Young Master, three ships were just launched last month, all of them were 800-ton big guys, and three more were launched in June." As for the more than 500 tons, there are now a total of eight land and water camps. Zhu Houwei frowned, "Why are there so few, I remember going into the water a lot last year." ”

Zhu Yuan suddenly had a bitter face, and said pitifully, "Second Young Master, you forgot that there is also the Dengzhou camp." Now as long as the three ships are launched, they have to be separated, and now there are not enough ships here. The Dengzhou camp was not satisfied with the people, and the boat was parked on the shore for training. ”

Zhu Houwei snorted, "Don't pretend to be pitiful for me, Tianjin Shipyard doesn't need to send ships here anymore, in the future, the ships in Dengzhou Camp will be directly ordered from Shandong Shipyard, and Tianjin is here to build big ships, and in the future, there will be bigger ships that you will use first, so what's not to be happy about." Zhu Yuan immediately said with a flattering smile, "I'll just say this, support Brother Dong's side, we can't have two words here, no, it's all a family." Zhu Houwei shook his head helplessly, the previous image of Zhu Yuan's honesty was shattered.
