The autumn is high and cool, and the Huai River is sparkling.

The microwave is light, and a boat floats alone in the middle of the river.

On the boat, there were three men and one woman, and two eunuchs.

Acting King Zhu Gui and Ning King Zhu Quan each brought a eunuch, only Zhu Yunxi brought a palace maid.

There was also a group of brocade guards in civilian clothes, who followed on horseback on the shore and escorted them all the way.

The palace maid Xuemei is dressed in a pale red palace dress, weak as a willow.

She is a palace maid on the surface, but she is actually a bodyguard, responsible for Zhu Yunxi's safety.

At this time, Zhu Yunxi was lying in front of Xuemei, with her head resting on her thigh.

Eating the purple and red grapes that are brought to his mouth from time to time, squinting his eyes, happy like a fairy.

"I said Yunxi, you're too good at enjoying it!"

On the side, Acting King Zhu Gui was a little speechless, regretting that he didn't bring a maid with him.

Zhu Yunxi smiled, and said in his heart that he was born in the royal family, isn't it basic to enjoy it?

He patted the boat with his left hand and said, "When you go to the fiefdom next year, I'm afraid that it will be too much for me." ”

These sons of Zhu Yuanzhang were more honest than one when they were in Beijing, and they all seemed to be different people in the fiefdom after the feudal lord.

King Ning Zhu Quan frowned: "If you are seen, if you don't get it, the imperial history will impeach you." ”

He is the same age as Zhu Yunxi, but he can't accept this frivolous gesture in broad daylight.

I had to consciously turn sideways and pretend to look at the river scenery.

"Yushi, it's just a bunch of mouth cannons, and I haven't seen a few serious things for the country and the people, hehe." Zhu Yunxi complained.

......

The Huai River runs through Fengyang Mansion and is the mother river of Fengyang Province.

The boat sailed down the Huai River.

From time to time, fishermen fish on the river, and there are also literati and scholars who fish here.

On the grass on the shore, there was a shepherd boy riding a bull and playing a flute.

Throughout the ages, people in the world have been busy and running around, nothing more than home.

What is home?

But there is a seat, there are fireworks under the eaves, the mother-in-law in the kitchen is busy, and the children in the house are noisy.

No matter how hard and tired you are, when you return home, you can smile when you see this situation and this scene, and you can laugh at the exhaustion!

Zhu Yunxi sighed, such a quiet life is not easy to obtain.

The emperor took turns to sit, and at this time he went to Fengyang.

The emperor's hometown is still well governed, and it feels like a paradise.

As the sun set, Zhu Yunxi and his party went ashore.

Next to the post road, the boundary monument half-hidden in the barren grass can vaguely see the three big characters of "Haozhou City".

At this time, Haozhou City is no longer the place of the year, when Zhu Yuanzhang was the king of Wu, Haozhou was promoted to Linhao Mansion.

In the seventh year of Hongwu, it was renamed Fengyang Mansion, and the central capital was built, and the government moved to the middle capital.

At this time, Haozhou City was just a dilapidated small city, which was the garrison of Hongtang Guard's Thousand Households, and the people living inside and outside the city were all military households.

Zhu Yunxi looked up into the distance, and a confused look flashed in his eyes.

At that time, there were a total of five marshals in Xiaoxiao Haozhou City, plus the newcomers Peng Da and Zhao Junyong, who were divided into two factions and fought endlessly.

Zhu Yuanzhang was unwilling to sit in Haozhou and wait to be wiped out by the Yuan army, so he asked Guo Zixing to take the twenty-four people recruited from his hometown to the south to open up a new stronghold.

This is the founding father of the Ming Dynasty, the twenty-four generals of Huaixi!

Zhu Yuanzhang used these 24 people to develop 30,000 horses in just one year, and the hegemony began.

Ning Wang Zhu Quan asked softly, "Are you sure it's here?" ”

Zhu Yunxi came back to his senses from his melancholy: "It should be here, but how did it become like this?" ”

In his impression, this is a revolutionary holy land, at least to make it a scenic spot or something.

He jumped off his horse.

The attendants dismounted.

Acting King Zhu Gui was excited, and said solemnly to everyone: "In front is Haozhou City, where my father made his career!" We're going to stay here for one night tonight. ”

"Remember, you are not allowed to reveal your identity, let alone provoke right and wrong!"

The attendants replied solemnly, "Yes! ”

Zhu Gui and his entourage led the horse to the city gate.

Two defenders stopped him and shouted, "Who is it? Dare to break inside! ”

Song Zhong, the Jinyi guard, stepped forward and said, "We are passing by and want to go in and stay for one night." ”

The city gate soldiers shouted again: "Accommodation? You don't have long eyes, this is where a thousand households are stationed, and this is where you stay? ”

“......”

Song Zhong saw that this little soldier was rude, so he wanted to step forward and bring it over and beat him violently.

Zhu Yunxi stopped him and said warmly: "In this case, let's stay outside the city for one night." ”

There are soldiers stationed in people's homes, and you break in without revealing your identity, what are you doing?

After everyone left the city gate, Zhu Yunxi pointed to a village house: "It should be where the military families live, let's go there and disturb for the night." ”

He wanted to take the opportunity to pay a private visit to inspect the life of military households.

When he returns to Beijing, Lao Zhu will definitely take the exam.

Bet on a wave of questions first......

Fortunately, the people were simple, and they soon met a kind old military family and welcomed a few people into the courtyard.

Fengyang Mansion is heavily garrisoned, and there are very few villains like the great thief Wang Ba after all.

"It's a little shabby, so let's just stay for one night."

The old soldier was old-faced, on crutches, and in his seventies.

Zhu Yunxi clenched his fists: "Thank you, uncle." ”

He turned to the attendants and commanded, "Let's live in one room, and you will live in one room and squeeze together." ”

There are only two empty rooms in the old army's family, one room for the three princes, and one room for the eunuch and the brocade guard, barely making up for one night.

After all, I came out to practice, and I didn't sleep like this in the past few days.

After Zhu Yunxi finished speaking, he saw someone pulling the corner of his clothes.

It was the palace maid Xuemei.

There was also a woman who almost forgot about her......

Only then did Zhu Yunxi realize how inconvenient it was to bring a woman by his side.

He raised his eyebrows, which seemed to say, let's ......

The old soldier smiled: "It just so happens that the old man has a daughter, so let the little lady live in the same room with my daughter." ”

"I'm in trouble, boss."

Zhu Yunxi motioned to Song Zhong to stuff some silver.

Song Zhong bolted his horse and took out ten taels of silver from his body: "There is a lot of disturbance." ”

This old brocade guard is silent and not good at expressing himself.

The old soldier's face was solemn: "Guest officer, did you keep you staying for your money?" ”

With that, he turned around and wanted to go.

Everyone couldn't help but be in awe, calling the people simple and simple, nothing more than that.

Zhu Yunxi took the silver from Song Zhong and stopped the old man: "I'm tired of buying some food, and our horses, we also need to prepare some forage......

"Okay!"

The old man coughed lightly and accepted the money "very reluctantly".

"Cuihua, quickly get some food for the guest officers!"

A big girl came out of the house, and there was a young man.

is a son and a daughter of an old military family.

After receiving the money, the family became busy and very enthusiastic, and took out all the rice and meat at home to entertain the guests.

Zhu Yunxi and the three of them were invited into the house, and Song Zhong took the brocade guards to guard outside, and they brought their own dry food.

"Uncle, you're a military household, right?"

Zhu Yunxi sat on a stool next to a snack table.

The old soldier's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Yes, the old man also fought with His Majesty, but it's a pity that he met a Yuan soldier and didn't make any military achievements." ”

Zhu Gui was interested: "Can my husband tell us about Haozhou City?" ”

"Back then, Guo Dashuai was in Haozhou City, Queen Xiaoci Ma was his daughter-in-law, His Majesty was his son-in-law, and on the day they got married, the old man also drank the wedding wine!"

Recalling the past, the old military households gushed endlessly.

After a long time, Zhu Yunxi asked, "How are the military households?" ”

The old military household sighed: "Your Majesty is good to us fellow villagers, and each household has an extra fifty acres of land, but it's a pity that he is no longer in Fengyang." ”
