"Oh......" After listening to the third child's words, Zhu Fan patted his head and said, "I, why did I forget this stubble." ”

"You just want to avoid working in the fields!" Zhu Di was not so easy to fool, and pointed out that Zhu was a little careful on the spot.

"No, you'll have to go down together. When the farm is slack, let's go investigate together! ”

Oh, we do the things that are hard and tired, and the things that show your face belong to your third child? Our fourth child is not such a stupid person.

"What should I do if the farm work is not finished?" Zhu said with an unhappy face: "Father's errand is not delayed?" ”

"What's the errand? What are you investigating? Seeing that the third and fourth were about to quarrel again, the sixth hurriedly asked.

"It's nothing, it's an adult's secret!" Zhu Yi waved his hand.

"Don't look at people through the cracks in the door, the sixth child is smarter than you." Zhu Di immediately grabbed Zhu Zhen's neck and said with a smile: "He won't tell you, the fourth brother will tell you." ”

"Didn't I tell the sixth child?" Zhu's face has always changed very quickly. immediately sat on the other side of Zhu Zhen and said with a smile: "As long as the sixth brother wants to know, it is the secret of the adult, and the third brother will tell you everything." ”

"Whoever you say will do." Zhu Zhen nodded, he already knew how to deal with them.

The third and fourth children will tell the sixth child the will of the emperor with a word from you and a word from me.

"That is to say, my father asked you to investigate, is there a big difference between the number of acres registered on the household sticker and the actual number of acres of each household?" Zhu Zhen concluded after listening.

"Yes, yes."

"Then pay attention to the places and see if there are any lawless things that cannot be heard by the heavens." Zhu Zhen continued: "The focus should be on the Xungui family. ”

"No, you didn't say the focus was on them, did you?" The dick scratches his cheeks.

"Liao Yongzhong's case has just ended, and everyone in Beijing said that this is the father and the emperor killing chickens and monkeys, so what kind of monkey is the example?" The third said in a deep voice: "Of course it's the founding prince!" ”

"Yes." Zhu Zhen nodded and said: "Most of the founding princes are from Fengyang, and my father also built mansions for the marquis and above in the middle capital. If this Fengyang really has something illegal that cannot be reached, ninety percent of them will have nothing to do with their family. ”

"Good fellow, Sixth!" Zhu couldn't help but look at Zhu Zhen with admiration. "I didn't expect you to be a year older and so smart!"

"I say, right?" Zhu Di patted his little belly proudly and said, "The sixth child has a lot of things in his stomach."

Zhu Zhen smiled, it seems that it will be difficult to pass in front of the fourth brother in the future.

Speaking of this, Zhu's little abacus is also in vain.

In the end, the brothers unanimously decided to do farm work together first, and then go out to investigate when the farm was not working.

Zhu Gang was about to announce the end of the meeting, but Lao Wu, who had been very quiet, suddenly spoke: "I calculated just now, if we follow the way we eat this meal, we will run out of food for three months at most." ”

Obviously, he listened to Tang Jiachang's advice.

"Then how do you say you can survive until the autumn harvest?"

"Three meals a day was reduced to two meals a day. Drink porridge in the morning and eat dry in the afternoon. "Zhu Hu is really the material for life, and he has entered the state so quickly." I can barely grow some melons and vegetables by myself. ”

"Is this miserable......" The brothers were all dumbfounded.

~~

In this way, the five highnesses began a country life that they would never forget......

Every morning, the hard-working fifth child gets up early, first sprinkles and sweeps the courtyard, and then boils water for his brothers and brothers to cook.

Breakfast is usually a porridge of wild vegetables boiled with shepherd's cabbage or water celery, accompanied by a variety of pickled small pickles from wild vegetables.

Speaking of which, the resettlement work in Linhuai County is really meticulous enough. Zhu Hu actually found a bag of salt from the materials distributed! This made the brothers sigh endlessly, Linhuai Zhixian really implemented his father's will in place, and he must recommend it in the future!

As for wild vegetables, Lao Wu is familiar with "Materia Medica", knows all kinds of plants well, and when he walks in the field, he can find several kinds of wild vegetables that can be eaten.

Zhu Zhen couldn't sleep too much, because the big buffalo had been so hungry after a night of rumination that he was so hungry that he mooed in the yard when he heard a movement.

All his current work is to serve this cow well, and the next spring ploughing will depend on it.

Rubbing his sleepy eyes and getting up, putting on his clothes that were getting dirtier and dirtier, and putting on cotton shoes that could no longer be seen in their original color, Zhu Zhen went to the courtyard and fed some hay to the big buffalo first.

One is to let it satisfy its hunger first, and the other is to prevent it from eating too much dew grass later, which will cause diarrhea and bloating.

This is all a valuable experience taught by Tang Jiachang, Zhu Zhen knows it and doesn't know why, anyway, whatever people say, he will do it.

After washing up indiscriminately and coming to the room, the fifth brother served him a big bowl of wild vegetable porridge.

The bowls, chopsticks and spoons they use are all wooden utensils made by the fourth brother, although they don't look good, they don't take advantage of it.

But as long as he thought that this was the future Yongle Emperor's own imperial system, Zhu Zhen felt that it was great to use.

Just salted the roots of the ears and ate the porridge bowl, Zhu Zhen was ready to go to herd the cattle.

He first put a cow rope on the big buffalo and put on a bamboo cage beak to prevent him from nibbling on the neighbor's vegetables on the way.

Saying hello to his brothers, His Royal Highness the King of Chu led the cow and went out to the outside of the village.

At first, he led the cow to walk, and then he saw that other cattle herding babies were riding on the back of the cow, and it was very pleasant to shake it around. He was so envious that he wanted to ride a bull too.

But the big buffalo has eyes like copper bells, nostrils are puffing, and a pair of horns are thick and bright, looking fierce like a bull demon king. There is a way that the son of a daughter can't sit down, and His Royal Highness the King of Chu decided to have a good relationship with Lao Niu before riding it.

When he arrived at the sunny slope of the river two miles away, Zhu Zhen untied the cow rope and cage beak and let the big buffalo move freely.

He found that the cattle generally did not run around, they always preferred to graze on the sunny slopes, and did not eat the grass in the shade, no matter how lush it was. Seven or eight cows gathered together, and they went back and forth around the large meadow to eat.

There is no need to worry about the cow fighting, because his big buffalo is the largest in the herd, and only it can bully other cows, and other cows don't want to bully it.

But this doesn't mean that he can be lazy, Zhu Zhen has to hold a small shovel and carry a bamboo basket, digging wild vegetables and looking for herbs everywhere.

Spring is the season when all things are full of vitality and all kinds of wild vegetables sprout in the fields. As long as people are not lazy, they can provide food for the whole family.

The herbs were picked by the fifth brother, and they were dried and concocted, and the brothers had a headache and brain fever and diarrhea, and the fifth brother could handle it.

Herbs that are not used can also be brought to the market in exchange for daily necessities and the like.

Zhu Zhen worked very hard, and it didn't take a few days to complete the transformation from a prince who opened his mouth to eat to a cowherd baby in the countryside. On the one hand, he hasn't been a prince for a few months, and it's not so difficult to make a fortune from luxury.

Second, hunger is the best driver. This is the literal feeling of hunger, and now he can only eat two meals a day, and only one dry. And not to mention the meat, even the oil flowers can't be seen.

He felt hungry every day, and everything he could eat was full of temptation for him. If it weren't for the fact that killing the ploughing cow would be sent to the government for punishment, he would have suggested that his brothers would have slaughtered the big buffalo for meat.

This strong sense of hunger drove Zhu Zhen to keep looking for food......

Third, his brothers are really hardworking. One can roll more than the other, and he is not embarrassed to be lazy at all.

The virtuous fifth brother didn't talk about it, he burned two meals a day, cleaned up the house and outside, and took the neighborhood to see a doctor and change some home. In Jinqiaokan, the word of mouth exploded.

The second, third, and fourth brothers are also good.

The second brother is infinitely powerful, hard-working, and doing this little work is easy and enjoyable. In fact, as long as he is not allowed to use his brain, he is always very relaxed; As long as he is not allowed to study, he is always happy.

And Zhu Fan seems to have found his own value in the field. He constantly showed his infinite strength, enjoying the exclamations of the villagers such as 'what an animal' and 'the reincarnation of the black bear spirit', as well as the coveted eyes of the big girls and little daughters-in-law.

The third brother and the fourth brother are competing all the time, wanting to compare each other. Today you plough one acre of land, tomorrow I will have to plough one and a half acres, it doesn't matter if you are tired or not, the key is to win!

Zhu Zhen looked at the three elder brothers sweating in the fields, and felt that his father's decision was quite reasonable. In the future, the three elder brothers will be able to fight in the fortress and advance thousands of miles in the windy Mobei, I am afraid that they will really have the credit of working their muscles and bones and starving their bodies and skin today.

But this king doesn't have to go out to fight, why should he suffer this crime? Whining......
