Chapter 530: I Don't Just Want to Be Brothers!
"I also heard that these so-called pirates are actually these fishermen, but they are just pretending to be pirates and secretly going to sea to make profits."
Li Xiangjun looked at those fishing villages and said with some fear: "Let's not get close to these fishing villages."
A few years ago, there was a rich lady who came to the beach to collect wind and disappeared directly.
It is said that he was swept into the sea by the waves when he was collecting the wind.
Later, I learned that this rich lady was caught by a local fisherman as a wife.
When I found it, I was hidden in a cave, and the children were born! ”
"You know a lot!"
"Suzhou is near the sea, I grew up near the water, and the distance between the two places is close, and some businessmen who have traveled from south to north often talk about these things.
There are true and false, but one thing is for sure, Songjiang Mansion is very chaotic! ”
Zhu Jun smiled, since this woman followed him, she rarely talked about the ups and downs, but actively talked about some political affairs and assisted him wholeheartedly.
Now, for example, she reminds herself to be careful of these fishing villages.
Although she didn't know what she was doing in Matsue, her consciousness was still very good.
"It seems that the supervision of the imperial court is not in place!"
"Sometimes, the imperial court is also more than willing but not enough, Songjiang Mansion has little arable land, but there are many people, more than 800,000 people.
Moreover, there is a lot of saline-alkali land here, and there is little grain to grow, and because it is close to the sea, it is easy to be ravaged by typhoons, and in addition, the pirates are rampant, and the people are also desperate, so they can only take risks to go to the sea to fish for a living. ”
"You don't have to explain, I know." Zhu Jun said: "The future of Songjiang Mansion is the top priority, as one of the directly governed prefectures, the imperial court will not ignore it." ”
A state capital with a population of nearly one million has great potential, and Songjiang Mansion is also the last stop for Zhu Jun to go south.
He didn't plan to go to Ningbo Mansion right now.
Governing bandits, not that.
If you look at the map, you can see that Songjiang Mansion and Ningbo Mansion happen to be diagonal.
Moreover, now Ningbo Mansion is very chaotic and has just been swept away by pirates.
Interestingly, the Tong family actually became the savior of this bandit attack on the city!
That's a big job.
It is said outside that the Tong family is iron-blooded and loyal to the great cause.
Moreover, the people of the Tong family actually entered Beijing to sue Yuzhuang.
At this stall, when such a thing appears, doesn't it set off the Tong family as a lonely and loyal minister?
So, it's dangerous to go to Ningbo now.
The Tong family has now been forced into a corner, and if they are forced, they may be going to rebel.
He couldn't pass.
Therefore, it is a good idea to start with Songjiang Mansion.
It is also convenient to cross the sea.
Li Xiangjun nodded, "I believe in you!" ”
"What do you believe me to do? Do you think that I came to Songjiang Mansion to take care of this matter? ”
Li Xiangjun smiled and said, "I believe you still need a reason?" ”
This woman can speak.
Even if Zhu Jun is a pragmatic person, when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel better, "Let's go, go into the city and have a look!" ”
After a short time, the two came to Songjiang City.
The walls were not high, and although they were infested by bandits, they still did not build any higher walls.
In my memory, the Ming Dynasty in another world built a defensive wall of more than 2,000 zhang during the Jiajing period.
However, it is not good to be beaten passively.
No matter how tall the city walls are, they can't stand the traitors inside.
"How is this better place than Suzhou?"
"It's still worse, I don't understand why the imperial court didn't promote Suzhou Mansion to a directly governed government, but Suzhou Mansion has more than two million people, and the population is almost twice that of Ying Tianfu!" Li Xiangjun said what many people thought in their hearts.
Suzhou as an important tax area, there are many people, but the imperial court is not in Suzhou capital, although it is related to the topography of Yingtianfu, but Suzhou is near a large population, once the capital, breaking three million people is not a problem.
The capital of three million people is terrifying to think about.
There will still be a need to move the capital.
"The imperial court has its own idea of the imperial court, although Suzhou is good, but the strategic depth is too shallow, if it is invaded by thieves, it only takes one day from landing to the soldiers coming to the city.
You say annoyed or not? If it is a day, it will be difficult, not only the strategic depth is deeper, but also easy to defend and difficult to attack.
If Jiangnan is compared to the crown, then Yingtian is the pearl in the crown!
Jin'er to Fengyang is the second pearl in the crown, undertaking the north and south.
Jiangnan will be more prosperous in the future, but this is not enough to shake the position of the capital! Zhu Jun said.
Li Xiangjun thoughtfully, "I've been taught." ”
Because Zhu Jun was afraid of being the focus, Li Xiangjun pretended to be a woman, and even deliberately put on makeup, painting herself darker than Zhu Jun, plus using a chest wrap, if she didn't speak, she really couldn't recognize her as a woman.
It's just that compared to Zhu Jun's tall figure, Li Xiangjun is too short.
So the two of them standing together looked quite funny.
Fortunately, no one paid attention, and only when Zhu Jun got closer could he smell the woman's body fragrance on Li Xiangjun's body.
"Shall we find a place to stay?" Li Xiangjun said.
"There's a place to stay!" Zhu Jun glanced at Shen Erbao.
Shen Erbao hurriedly said, "Come with me!" ”
After a short time, Shen Erbao guided Zhu Jun and the others to a remote and secluded courtyard.
Li Xiangjun looked at the courtyard and didn't ask much, and when she entered it, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally, you don't have to speak rudely." ”
After two days of tiring travel, Zhu Jun was also a little tired, so he instructed Shen Erbao to make some food.
Li Xiangjun entered the room, took off the chest binding, removed the makeup on his face, coiled his hair up at will, inserted a hosta, and looked extremely beautiful without makeup.
Seeing that Zhu Jun was stunned, she couldn't help but say, "Isn't it ugly without makeup?" ”
"Laughing at it, you're a natural beauty! Even if you don't wear makeup, it's a first-class beauty! ”
"In the past, people often praised me, and I didn't think it was anything, but when Brother Li praised me, I was a little proud."
In the final analysis, it is hypocrisy.
Some people say she's beautiful, and she thinks you're coveting her body.
But some people say she's beautiful, but she doesn't think so.
For example, Zhu Jun's identity praises her, which is to look up to her.
Speaking of which, identity matters.
Zhu Jun sat in the courtyard, "In a few days, it will be Qingming, and I don't want to leave your hometown!" ”
"My family is separated from the Li family, and my grandfather is in the ancestral land, and my father will arrange the worship properly!" Li Xiangjun was afraid that Zhu Jun would drive her away, so she hurriedly said, "Brother Li is homesick?" ”
"Kindly, wandering outside, can you miss home?" Zhu Jun sighed, "During the Qingming Festival, it rains a lot, and the pedestrians on the road want to break their souls!" ”
Li Xiangjun heard Zhu Jun's sad face, suddenly walked in front of Zhu Jun, and hugged him with courage, "Brother Li is not alone, no matter where you go, I will accompany you!" ”
She didn't just want to be Zhu Jun's brother, seeing Zhu Jun feeling uncomfortable, she knew that this was her chance!
