    After Zhu Houzhao killed Zhu Chenhao with great air, he looked around.  Suddenly he remembered something and said to Wang Zhen, "Have you met Liu Jin?"

    "Liu Jin?" Wang Zhen was stunned: "Who is this person?"

    "He is my companion." Zhu Houzhao gestured: "He is extremely ugly, greedy, lazy, and afraid of death. When he speaks, his voice sounds likewellvery deep."

    Wang Zhen shook his head: "I will try my best to find him."

    Zhu Houzhao said with emotion: "Perhaps he has died. I have returned to the capital. It is time to set up a tomb for him. Poor Liu Banban, he is always so careless. Forget it, let's enter the city."

    After entering the city, all the guards of King Ning in the city surrendered.

    "However, the Poyang Lake water thieves who were colluded with King Ning were all detained. They were a group of thieves to begin with, and they were not just pardoned.

    Now, these people have surrendered their weapons and are being detained.

    When he heard that he had caught the thief, Zhu Houzhao jumped three feet high in excitement.

    There were tens of thousands of such thieves, and they were all extremely cruel and harmed one party. Zhu Houzhao immediately led Fang Jifan and others to the camp under supervision to see.

    "I want to kill a few thieves to see if these thieves dare to rebel against our Ming Dynasty."

    Zhu Houzhao clenched the hilt of the sword at his waist.

    After leaving the capital, he was like a bird out of its cage.

    Fang Jifan also rolled up his sleeves: "I'll kill one too, so that someone won't gossip and the trip will be in vain."

    Fang Jifan has always been merciless to bad guys.

    With great interest, he followed Zhu Houzhao to the camp where he was being held. Suddenly, a sergeant grabbed a few gangsters, but when he saw the gangsters, Zhu Houzhao was a little confused.

    The people who came were a few sallow and thin people, with ragged clothes and messy hair. From the torn clothes, the exposed skin was very shriveled, like dead wood, and like bones wrapped in a skin.

    This is a thief?

    The smile on Zhu Houzhao's face gradually disappeared.

    "Have mercy, have mercy" Several water thieves from Poyang Lake cried bitterly: "Have mercy."

    Zhu Houzhao sniffed and covered his mouth because the other party smelled so bad.

    "Are these people thieves?"

    "Exactly." Zhang Jin, who came with the Imperial Guard Qianhu, said with a smile: "Your Highness, these thieves are the most cunning. Your Highness, please don't fall into their trap. They have colluded with Prince Ning a long time ago and will not repent."

    Zhu Houzhao sniffed again.

    He came here excitedly, but when he saw these water thieves, Zhu Houzhao lost the slightest interest.

    He stepped forward and looked at the water thieves carefully, but the water thieves just knelt on the ground, trembling.

    Shen Ao was afraid that the water thief would rise up and hurt Zhu Houzhao, so he was about to step forward with his sword.

    Fang Jifan grabbed him.

    Zhu Houzhao looked at the water thief carefully and started to sniff again.

    "Call our bachelors, governors, general military officers, and general managers to come." Zhu Houzhao said with an expressionless face, hands behind his back, turned and walked away.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Arrived at Xingyuan.

    Zhu Houzhao sat down.

    Fang Jifan and others took their seats.

    The water thief was brought here.

    Zhu Houzhao said: "I am hungry."

    "Yes, yes, yes, I have dried meat here, my mother made it." Yang Biao hurriedly took a few pieces of dried meat, Zhu Houzhao took one piece, and then gave each of the water thieves two pieces: "Eat."

    Zhu Houzhao ate it first. It tasted good, except that it was a bit saucy, but Zhu Houzhao didn't care.

    The water thief looked at Zhu Houzhao hesitantly, and then, without caring much, he immediately started gobbling it up.

    Zhu Houzhao laughed: "They look like Liu Banban."

    After several water thieves finished eating, Zhu Houzhao said: "Get them some tea."

    Zhang Jin frowned, wondering what kind of mystery His Highness was trying to make.

    Someone brought tea, but the water thieves drank it while still kneeling.

    Zhu Houzhao said: "Why are you being thieves?"

    The leader of the old thief said: "If you don't become a thief, you will starve to death. In the past few years, Poyang Lake has been flooded every year"

    Zhu Houzhao asked: "Can you fill your stomach by being a thief?"

    The old thief then cried: "I can't even fill my stomach. When I was a good man, I didn't get anything, and I still owe rent, so I had to become a thief. Being a thief is even more terrible. The poor can't even steal a pound."  Rice, even rich people can't snatch it from himMore than a hundred people with blacksmith experience came out, and then began to recycle countless collected weapons into agricultural tools.

    At Honggutan, sheds have been erected.

    There are almost no fields here, because the river is fast and sometimes it dries up, and sometimes it overflows. Once the river surges, all the original fields will be washed away.

    All the money and grain in Prince Ning's Mansion were inspected, and all the grain was moved here and a barn was built. Fang Jifan thought that if he wanted to open up fertile farmland from Honggutan to Hongjiaozhou and Jiulong Lake below, he would need to first  Build a dike.

    Then, countless irrigation ditches were dug, so that water could be diverted for irrigation and countless fertile fields could be opened up.

    With these fertile fields and the introduction of a large number of high-yielding crops, this Jiangxi area can be used as an agricultural demonstration base. These experiences can also be extended to the Poyang Lake area.

    Zhu Houzhao was not idle. He personally led the thieves to quarry stones in Meiling, and then used vines to basket the stones for building dams. Fang Jifan had no choice but to bring a hoe and let someone draw a ditch and water network.  Drawings, and then take people to measure the land and dig trenches.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Others have to get busy too.

    "Xiao Zhu was very serious about his work. When he appeared on the embankment carrying the stones himself, the thieves were a little confused.

    To be honest I have never seen such a great governor.

    Xiong Er was a little confused at first. At first, when he drove them here, he thought they were going to be forced to do hard labor, but then he felt more and more incredible.

    ??¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    besides.

    In addition, many of Xiao Zhu¡¯s descriptions, such as chopping King Ning¡¯s corpse with a knife, and giving Xiong Er dried meat to eat in a pleasant manner, are actually restorations of "Wuzong Shilu".

    For example, giving dried meat to eat is actually from the historical record of Xiao Zhu¡¯s tour to the south of the Yangtze River. The original sentence is: The color of the words is very harmonious (the appearance is pleasant), so he cooked tea and offered it (the old man offered the tea to Xiao Zhu to drink), and the follower received the fruit.  Eat two pieces of cake for yourself and give two pieces to the old man.  (After Xiao Zhu drank the old man¡¯s tea, he asked someone to take out the cakes. He ate two of them himself and gave the old man two cakes in return.)

    In fact, there are many similar small details hidden in the story, but they have been artistically processed in the novel, well, that's about it.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
