In the early morning, Tang Jiazhang was woken up by the sound of mooing.
"What's going on outside?" My wife also started to argue. "Why are you at the cattle and sheep market?"
"Who knows?" Tang Jia Chang yawned and said, "You'll know when you get up and take a look."
His old lady loved to watch the fun, how could she bear it? She quickly put on her clothes and got up, fearing that she would miss it.
Unexpectedly, she was startled when she opened the door.
"Old man..." The old woman took two steps back and fell to the ground. She pointed outside and said, "Those cattle and sheep are all in our yard."
"What?" Tang Jia Chang quickly put on his shoes and went to the ground, walked to the door and took a look.
The yard is really full of cattle and sheep, stuffed to the brim...
"What are you doing?" Monk Tang Jia Changzhang Er was confused. He wanted to go out and take a look, but he didn't dare to rush through the herds of cattle and sheep.
There are so many cattle and sheep in the yard. If one of them is frightened, a stampede will occur, and you cannot afford to pay for the death or injury.
While he was confused, the courtyard door was pushed open, and he saw that the street outside was full of cattle and sheep...
Tang Jiazhang stretched out his hand and pinched the old woman hard.
"It hurts me so much, what are you doing?" Like an old woman in a dream, she suddenly screamed in pain.
"It hurts? Then it's not a dream..." Tang Jiazhang came to the conclusion.
At this time, someone finally answered his doubts.
A man wearing a green military officer's official robe appeared at his door after all the trouble.
"Uncle, are you shocked?" When the man spoke, his voice was very familiar.
"Zhang Hu? Where did you get this outfit? Take it off quickly and let others see it. You can't bear to eat it and walk around!" Only then did Tang Jiazhang realize that this guy who looked like a dog was actually the gangster from before.
chief.
"Who are you looking down on? We are now a serious official of the imperial court!" Zhang Hu raised his head and patted his chest and said: "I am the central guard of Taiyuan in Prince Jin's palace, and I am the eighth-grade flag officer Zhang Hu!"
"Real or false? How do you think you can become a government official?" Tang Jiabi was even more shocked when he saw the cattle and sheep in the yard.
"Hehe, of course we are excellent..." Zhang Hu smiled proudly, and then answered honestly: "Old man, this is our destiny."
As he spoke, he pointed to the door to the empty house and said, "Do you know who lives in there?"
"Brothers from the Hong family?" Chief Tang Jia somewhat understood. "Their father has revolted and promoted you?"
"Hahaha, this is correct or not. First, my father has never lost his official position, and no one in the Ming Dynasty can remove him from office." Zhang Hu stopped pretending and said: "Secondly, his father has never lost his official position.
My surname is Hong, my surname is Zhu! These are the five genuine princes!"
"Scare, you said those five brothers are the emperor's sons?" Tang Jia's chin dropped to the ground.
"That's not true. Hong Erlang is His Royal Highness the current King of Qin; San Lang is the King of Jin; Si Lang is the King of Yan; Wu Lang is the King of Wu; Liu Lang is His Royal Highness the King of Chu!" Zhang Hu then said, "Now you know how lucky we are, right?"
"
"Well, then their father..." Tang Jiazhang felt dizzy and quickly held on to the door frame.
"That's right, he is the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Lord Hongwu who came out of Linhuai!" Zhang Hu announced loudly:
"These twenty cows, two hundred sheep, one hundred carts of charcoal, and this bag of gold sand..."
As he spoke, he took off the heavy robe from his shoulders, held it high and showed it to Chief Tang Jia:
"It's all what your highnesses promised you! Now it's all been fulfilled!"
The emperor and his son have already moved away the grain they collected and almost everything in the Hong family courtyard. If nothing else happens, they will not come back again.
Therefore, Zhang Hu no longer needs to keep it a secret, but should publicize this story loudly so that it becomes another legend of Boss Zhu.
The villagers in Jinqiaokan had heard the commotion a long time ago and came over to watch the excitement. Naturally, they were filled with envy when they heard this. Many people regretted not being nice to the five brothers in the first place, so that they would not be considered worthy now.
Shangguan'er will definitely receive a big reward.
It would be even better if you marry your daughter to them. Wouldn't it turn a sparrow into a phoenix and become a princess in an instant?
The villagers over there wished they could take their own lives, but here Tang Jia Chang fell into panic.
He remembered that day, he scolded the emperor to his face for killing a thousand swords...
In fear, he was fascinated by a mouthful of phlegm and fainted.
"Oh, old man, we are going to be a rich man. Nothing will happen to you." His mother-in-law hurriedly supported Tang Jia Chang, shouting at the heavens and the earth.
The villagers also rushed up, pinching and slapping him, and finally helped Tang Jia Chang cough up the phlegm.
Fortunately it was just a false alarm.
However, after all this trouble, Tang Jiazhang also figured out that the emperor would not blame him. The real dragon emperor really can't argue with a little ant...
Once his worries were gone, he started to smile and be happy.
Twenty cows, two hundred sheep, a hundred carts of charcoal, and a bag of gold!
In the blink of an eye, he became one of the richest men in his hometown!
Go back and buy more than a dozen acres of land, rent it out and let it be cultivated. Then build a big house yourself and sit around collecting rent all day long. Well, you can eat white rice every day!
It's a pity that I can't do it anymore, otherwise I could still have a few more concubines...
Alas, it's a pity that I can't do it anymore...
Thinking of this, he suddenly froze. Then he cried sadly.
"Why are Master Tang so sad?" The villagers' names for him have changed.
"Yes, you should be happy."
"Hey, you don't understand. I once had the opportunity to be a high official before me, but it's a pity that the old man didn't cherish it..." Tang Jia said sadly, "I regret it so much... If His Highness asks you again, I will definitely agree!"
Everyone sighed. Indeed, how can it be better to be a rich man than to be a high official?
It's just that they don't know that this is the kind of high-ranking official who needs to be stabbed...
~~
Not to mention Tang Jiachang who was dazzled by happiness, Zhu Yuanzhang and his son returned to Zhongdu City twenty miles away at noon that day.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not enter the city immediately. Instead, he met Han Yike who was waiting outside the city and went around to a place called Pubeigang outside the north city.
The officers and soldiers of the Yulin Guard have put the place under martial law to prevent anyone from getting close to it.
When Zhu Yuanzhang's car passed the warning line, he suddenly said to Zhu Zhen: "You can stay, don't be so scared that you pee on the bed again."
Zhu Zhen shook his head and said that he was fine. In fact, he could smell the strong smell of corpse...
Zhu Yuanzhang said nothing and continued to move forward.
After a while, the holy driver came to a large lake that had been drained of water. Zhu Yuanzhang got out of the car and walked to the lake and looked inside.
I saw that the mud at the bottom of the lake was densely covered with bones, and there were countless corpses that had not completely decomposed...
At this time, not only Zhu Zhen, but also several of his brothers ran to the side and vomited.
Zhu Yuanzhang, however, remained motionless, looking at the hell-like scene in front of him with his hands behind his hands with a pale face.
"These are all civilians and craftsmen who died of illness and exhaustion and were executed." Han Yike reported from the side: "They should have been taken to the Liuligang incineration site and burned. But there were so many people who died that there was no time to burn them.
The guards secretly threw the corpse into Fangqiu Lake, and it ended up like this..."
