Chapter 316: I'm Back!

And the natives who know the land and climate have never planted it.

The next field was quickly formed, but this land was only suitable for farming, not for cultivation at all. For the time being, the Ming people, who had no cattle and sheep, still had to sprinkle some wheat seeds on them and wait for them to grow naturally.

By March, the town of Daming had developed very large-scale, and they expanded outward for three miles, built some dwellings, and some natives who were willing to register as Daming people lived in.

After a period of edification and indoctrination, they were willing to abide by the rules and regulations of the Ming Dynasty, if there was a need to defecate and defecate, they went to the toilet, after wearing trousers for a while, the women among them were also willing to wear blouses, they knew how to use the stove, and boiled the water until it was required to drink it.

They get up early and return late every day, Daming is responsible for three meals a day, and will pay them one to three cents, and they will buy some things they have never seen in the shops in Daming Town.

For example, if they can save up for two more days, they can even buy a bun with bean sprouts.

After getting used to the life of a small town, no one wants to leave the town.

In March, Zhu Gaoxian planned to leave, and the four family masters were also preparing to return, after they returned, they needed to adjust their resources according to the actual situation here, and they would definitely send more family members to come.

On the hills near the town, all sentry posts were set up, and several fortresses protected the land occupied by the Ming people.

Zhu Gaoxian will return with the main ship, four battleships and five cruisers, mainly to replenish ammunition, and after that, he will send twenty warships to replace the ten warships that remained here.

In the future, this side of the coastal defense will adopt this rotation method, and there will be a large number of Ming Navy stationed here.

When the wheat began to tassel, Zhu Gaoxian boarded the warship that went back, and this time, several heads of the four major families were also allowed to board another cruiser.

The way back was smooth sailing, and after a short stop on other islands, Zhu Gaoxian returned to Jiangning Wharf on the 10th of April.

For more than a year, when he saw the towering customs office on the wharf, the modern customs hotel, the people of all shapes and sizes, and the busy customs officers in navy uniforms, his heart was full of thoughts, joy, and excitement.

I'm finally back!

Because of the communication, and he didn't want to cause trouble to his parents and brothers, Zhu Gaoxian did not notify anyone in advance, and even in the letter to his father, he did not inform himself of the exact return date.

Lu Zhen was reviewing documents in the official office, and suddenly, a general flag on duty at the customs came over today, and he almost forgot the etiquette and rushed in.

Lu Zhen frowned deeply, and was about to have a seizure, when the general banner exclaimed, "My lord, my lord, the Fourth Highness is back!"

Lu Zhen stood up suddenly, as if in a dream, he rushed over and grabbed the shoulder of the general flag, "What did you say? Who did you say came back?"

"Your Highness, it's the Fourth Highness, and the Fourth Highness is back!"

"Really?"

Lu Zhen threw down this person, he rushed out, fortunately, he was wearing a military uniform today, otherwise, he would still have to carry the hem of his robe, and he wouldn't be able to run fast at all.

He rushed to the dock, just in time for Zhu Gaoxian's main ship to dock.

On the ship of the "Mingwei", although the word "Mingwei" has been sailing for more than a year, the handwriting is still clear, and the golden dragon flag fluttering on the mast is waving in the wind.

Many people in the Ming Dynasty still remember that more than a year ago, His Royal Highness the Fourth Highness boarded an ocean-going warship here.

At that time, they saw off His Highness here, worried about the prince who brought prosperity to the Ming Dynasty and brought a path to heaven, and from the moment he left, they were also looking forward to his return.

"The Fourth Highness is back!" Someone exclaimed.

Immediately after, everyone couldn't help but let out a voice, "The Fourth Highness is back!"

The sound became a river, and many rivers came together to form an ocean, and the sound was like a tidal wave, surging out in all directions.

Lu Zhen looked at Zhu Gaoxian who walked on the deck, tears flowed out, and the Fourth Highness grew taller and thinner.

He would receive the emperor's secret decree almost every few days, and there would always be only one sentence, "The fourth prince is back, tell me as soon as possible", he knew that the more time passed, the more worried the emperor became, no one dared to imagine, if the fourth prince did not come back, what would Daming do?

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince!"

Lu Zhen took two steps, he made a movement that was used to lifting the hem of his robe, and knelt down with a puff.

As he knelt down, everyone couldn't help but kneel, including those aliens who came to trade, and the voice of the Ming people was like thunder, "Welcome to His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince!"

"The Fourth Highness is back!"

"Great, the Fourth Highness is back!"

"Bodhisattva bless, the Fourth Highness has finally returned!"

Someone really couldn't help it, and made a whispering sound, and because he was too excited, the voice couldn't be restrained, and it came into Zhu Gaoxian's ears.

The corners of his lips couldn't help but curl, and his gaze swept over every face he was familiar with or unfamiliar, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten a little, "I'm back!"

Many people covered their lips and wept, and they knelt on the ground, refusing to get up, and bowed their heads to let the tears fall to the ground.

"Get up!" Zhu Gaoxian raised his hand, "Everyone get up, I have been to many places this time, and the journey has been very smooth, you don't have to worry!"

Zhu Gaoxian stepped forward and helped up an elderly man, this person was a Ming man, he couldn't help asking, "Uncle, are you so old, do you still want to go to the sea?"

The old man was so excited, "Where can Xiaomin still go to the sea, thanks to the blessing of His Royal Highness Si, Xiaomin has a cleaning job at this dock, and he can earn a few dollars a month, which is enough."

Zhu Gaoxian looked at the gray hair on his head, looked at the old man's short figure, and felt the old man's very satisfied mood because he didn't worry about eating and drinking, he couldn't help but be very moved, the people are always so easy to be satisfied!

But for him, all this was not enough.

He has been away from Daming for more than a year, and after his long-term longing makes him look at Daming from a different angle, his feelings for Daming are different.

If the Ming Dynasty is strong enough and the treasury is rich enough, a pension system can be established, and such old people do not have to reach the age of dying old age, and they have to work so hard.

At this time, he couldn't say anything, only ashamed that he didn't have this ability.

Many people poured up, just to get a little closer to Zhu Gaoxian, Zhu Gaoxian greeted them one by one, looking at the same face as himself, his heart that had been empty for a long time because of longing was gradually filled with this warmth.

"Everyone, I won't greet everyone one by one, I'm going back to the palace, my father and mother are still waiting for me!"

At the moment when he learned that Zhu Gaoxian was back, when Lu Zhen went out, he had already arranged for someone to drive back to the capital, and he wanted to tell the emperor the good news.

Zhu Gaoxian waved his hand to everyone, and all the people surrounding Zhu Gaoxian were like Moses dividing the sea, parting to both sides, looking at him with eyes that were still so enthusiastic, but their movements were so cooperative.

Lu Zhen couldn't help but be shocked by Zhu Gaoxian's appeal among the people.

As news about Zhu Gaoxian from overseas became less and less, many courtiers who were originally optimistic about Zhu Gaoxian in the DPRK and China inevitably changed direction.

The second prince, Zhu Gaoxu, was still attacking Japan, and heard that the so-called "emperor" there had surrendered, but a massacre had just begun.

There are more and more impeachments of the second prince in the court, and no one wants a tyrant in the future, so there are almost no ministers who stand for the second prince.

And the three princes have been studying, although there are some courtiers who love literature have a good impression of the three princes, and often hold some parties to learn the elegance of the Jin people.

But over the years, the important ministers who are in high positions and hold important positions are basically too busy to put their feet on the ground, and everyone has the risk of dying from overwork, and there is no time to be elegant.

The Fourth Highness is back!

There will be new changes in the situation between the DPRK and China, I wonder what those courtiers who have shown favor to His Highness will think?

Lu Zhen took two quick steps forward to introduce himself to His Royal Highness, and before he could speak, Zhu Gaoxian smiled in a good mood, "Old Lu, long time no see!"

He patted Lu Zhen on the shoulder, and Lu Zhen took the opportunity to say, "Your Highness is finally back, and the emperor and the queen have been thinking about Your Highness!"

Zhu Gaoxian's hand paused, his eyes turned red, and he quickly restrained his emotions, "Accompany this king back to Beijing!"

Lu Zhen couldn't help but be flattered, "The minister obeys the order!"

He looked up at the sun above him and asked worriedly, "Does Your Highness take a break?" It's lunchtime."

"No need!" Zhu Gaoxian looked in the direction of the capital, at this time he was like an arrow, there was never a moment, he missed his father and mother in this life so much.

The car drove quickly on the road, Lu Zhen accompanied Zhu Gaoxian to sit in the back seat, and after getting into the car, Zhu Gaoxian only ate a little pastry, drank a few sips of tea, and began to ask about the situation in the capital.

His last letter came out in February, when two warships were going to Java to refill the fuel, and he had the letters brought there, and several of the islands would deliver the letters as a relay.

He asked his father not to write back again, saying that he was coming back, and in the days he was gone, he couldn't imagine how much his father and mother would miss him.

Thinking of this, he realized that "his parents are here, not far away", and how unfilial he was when he went out.

It's just that in the days to come, he still has to continue this kind of action.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince is still in the Wa Kingdom, and last month's report came that the minister saw that the so-called emperor of the Wa Kingdom had surrendered." Lu Zhen was talking about the news of the Ming Dynasty, "Sumatra and Kalimantan each brought back a few ships of coal last month, and the Lu family and the Min family purchased a few power ships from the dock in the south."
