Chapter 710 Bad Uncle

Zhu Xiuniang didn't know why the emperor's uncle knew that he was sick. When she came to Tiankui, she had some lower abdomen pain, but her mother said that it was normal and would be cured in a few years. But why did the emperor's uncle say that he was sick?

Zhu Xiu Niang asked with a bold attitude: "Your Majesty, why...?"

"Embroidered lady, call me uncle!"

"Uncle, why do you know the embroiderer's situation?"

"I naturally know that I also know how to relieve your pain! Did your mother ask you to drink more brown sugar water?"

Zhu Xiuniang opened her eyes and said, "Uncle is so amazing, that's what my mother said!"

"Your mother said it wrong. Drinking brown sugar water can only relieve this disease, but it cannot remove the roots. Only I will remove the roots!"

Zhu Xiuniang was so happy to hear the emperor say that he could remove the roots. She made Zhu Xiuniang feel in pain during those days of the month. It would be great if she could remove the roots.

"Uncle, please save Empression!" Zhu Empression said and bowed.

Zhu Hongsan pretended to be musing and said, "It's easy to get rid of the roots, but you need to take off your clothes and treat you honestly with your uncle. Are you willing?"

Although Zhu Xiu Niang is young and ignorant of men and women, she is not a fool. She has never seen anyone except her mother. She is even shy when she encounters a secret place while taking a shower. How can she agree to her uncle if she wants to see it?

"Uncle, this is not in accordance with the law!"

"Embroidered lady, can I still harm you as your uncle? Your root cause is in the lower abdomen. How to treat it without taking off your clothes? Do you still want to hurt once a month?"

Zhu Xiu Niang naturally didn't want to feel so painful every month. She took off her clothes hesitantly after hearing what the emperor said.

Seeing that Zhu Hongsan was successful in coaxing the little girl, he quickly took off his clothes.

"Uncle, why did you take off your clothes?"

"Embroidered lady, you don't know that to cure the disease, it requires something on my body. It will cause some pain in a while. Be patient and call uncle a gentler if it hurts!"

There were not two people in the hall, Zhu Hongsan and Zhu Xiuniang, as well as Li Chengen and four young eunuchs. Seeing Zhu Hongsan coaxing the underage girl here, Li Chengen scolded in his heart that this foolish monarch was really not a thing and that his niece would not let go.

After a while, Zhu Hongsan asked with satisfaction: "Niece, how about it? Uncle didn't lie to you, right? Doesn't it hurt anymore?"

"Yes, uncle, it hurt a little at first, but it didn't hurt later! But what are the sticky things that uncle asked me to eat?"

"Niece, this is the medicine, you'll be fine if you take it!"

"This is so fishy, ​​so unpalatable!"

"Be good, if you eat it and treat the disease, you will have to take it for 49 days to get better!"

Zhu Hongsan was in a great mood after treating his niece Zhu Xiuniang. He got up and put on his clothes and went out. Today he still had a lot of things to do and he had to go back to his hometown in Wuchang to pay homage to his parents.

Zhu Xiuniang, who had just experienced personnel, returned to the backyard with the help of two little eunuchs. Half of the Prince's Mansion in Jiangxia County was burned down, and there were only a few houses in the backyard, which was still good. One of them was the residence of Zhu Hongyu, the daughter of Zhu Heng, the King of Jingjiang.

Originally, Zhu Hongsan had an Yi woman, Lu Riguo, but that Yi woman had too strong desires, so Zhu Hongsan couldn't stand it. In addition, Zhu Hongsan was originally using Lu Riguo to anger the Shui Xi'an family, so after pacifying Guizhou, Zhu Hongsan found a reason to send Lu Riguo back to her father's place in Zhaotong, Yunnan, so now the only woman in the backyard is Zhu Hongyu.

Zhu Hongyu was only fifteen years old when she was occupied by Zhu Hongsan, and now she is eighteen years old, and she is still five months pregnant.

Zhu Hongyu's father and three brothers all died at Zhu Hongsan's hands. Logically, she should hate Zhu Hongsan to the core, but Zhu Hongyu is a weak woman and is still pregnant, so she has accepted her fate in the past few years.

Today, Zhu Hongyu saw a girl coming in with the eunuch. Zhu Hongyu was also a veteran. At first glance, he had just experienced personnel. In the entire harem, except for the eunuch, there was a man like Zhu Hongsan. Zhu Hongyu naturally knew who committed the crime.

"Sister, are you the woman of His Majesty's new wife?"

After sitting down, Zhu Xiuniang looked at the pregnant woman. This was probably the imperial concubine of the emperor's uncle. Zhu Xiuniang did not dare to neglect her. She quickly struggled to get up and bowed and said, "Hello, aunt, niece is Zhu Xiuniang, the daughter of Zhu Hongba, the prince of Jiangxia County!"

Zhu Hongyu read books when she was a child and knew that Prince Jiangxia was the second generation ancestor of the bastard Emperor Zhu Hongsan. If it was a bit far-fetched to be Zhu Hongsan's relative, Prince Jiangxia was Zhu Hongsan's real relative. Unexpectedly, this beast would not even let go of his niece.

"Hey, poor kid, don't call me aunt, call me sister!"

"That's unethical, Your Majesty even asked me to call him uncle!"

Zhu Hongyu couldn't help but curse in her heart when she heard Zhu Xiuniang's naive words: Is this foolish lord still a human being? He even called him uncle when he did that kind of thing? Zhu Hongyu suddenly blushed after scolding her. She remembered that she was also called the foolish lord grandfather when she did that thing?

"Silly boy, how did Your Majesty trick you into the palace?"

"Lie? No, uncle said I was sick and asked me to stay for treatment!"

Zhu Hongyu sounded like an old routine, and this foolish monarch probably won’t have anything else.

"Hmph! Did he say he wanted to check your body? Did he say that only his physical illness can be cured by the meat stick that can grow and short?"

"Yes, does my sister have this disease, too?"

"This bastard is still an old routine, it's really embarrassing! Silly kids, he lied to you. In a few months, you will be pregnant like your sister!"

Zhu Xiuniang immediately cried when she heard Zhu Hongyu say this: "Uncle the emperor is so bad. He tricked the embroiderer and said that he would eat something to treat diseases. It turned out that he was going to have a baby! The emperor is a bad uncle!"

Just as the two women cursed Zhu Hongsan, the bad uncle Zhu Hongsan had already brought his subordinates and son Zhu Jiang to Wuchang County, ten miles outside Wuchang Prefecture.

Looking at the familiar city walls, Zhu Hongsan was filled with emotion. Although this place was not his hometown, it had grown up here for more than ten years. All his young memories, family, friendship, and love were all in this small county town with a radius of less than five miles.

Wuchang has always been a place where military strategists must fight for, and this was even more so in the late Ming Dynasty. In the late Ming Dynasty, Wuchang changed hands seven times, namely Zhang Xianzhong, Zuo Liangyu, He Tengjiao, Manchu Qing, Zhu Hongsan, and Manchu Qing, and finally fell back into Zhu Hongsan's hands.

Every time they change hands, they will affect Wuchang County. The two times Zhang Xianzhong and Zuo Liangyu were the most serious. The entire county town was basically killed. Now the people in the county town are the population that Zhu Hongsan slowly gathered after occupying Wuchang County, but they are no longer those people Zhu Hongsan is familiar with.

Today, the person who accompanied Zhu Hongsan back to his hometown was Xu Fuyuan, the governor of Wuchang Prefecture, and Xia Yunyi, the governor of the Governor Liu Silai, did not come today because he was preparing to seize Hanyang.

The current Wuchang County Magistrate is a Juren named Liang Guan. He was originally from Nanzhili. During the Anti-Qing war, he destroyed his family and helped him to relieve his difficulties. He sold his family property and joined the rebel army. Although he did not make any contributions, his courage was commendable. Therefore, after Zhu Hongsan occupied Nanjing, he was rewarded with a county magistrate.

Liang Guan had already received an article from the yamen of the governor. He knew that the emperor was coming today. Liang Guan was very disgusted with the emperor traveling everywhere without any trouble. According to their literati, it was enough for the emperor to be a mascot in the palace. Isn’t traveling everywhere costing money and food?

Although these literati and officials in the Ming Dynasty were extremely unbearable, they still had one advantage, that is, they never succumbed to the imperial power.

When Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao went to Jiangnan, local officials dared to write a letter saying that the local people would not welcome you, Emperor, you should go back to Beijing early! This is true. This kind of character of not fearing power is not something that the Qing Dynasty scholars and officials who praised merits were able to have.

Liang Guan is also such a person. When he learned that the emperor was coming, he was about to meet the emperor and persuaded the emperor to return to Beijing as soon as possible. Why are you walking around?

When Liang Guan saw the emperor's imperial chariot arrive, he stepped forward and bowed and said, "My minister Liang Guan in Wuchang County pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor!" He said it was a visit, but Liang Guan just bowed and did not kneel down.

Zhu Hongsan didn't take it seriously. He had already given benefits to scholars, and those who had fame did not have to kneel down, so he didn't take it seriously when he saw Liang Guan just bowed.

"Wuchang County, tell me about the specific situation of your county!"

"Yes! Your Majesty! There are now 11,200 households in Wuchang County, with a population of 56,224. Because of frequent wars, there are only more than 11,000 people!"

Zhu Hongsan sighed when he heard Liang Guan say this. When he was in Wuchang County, there were more than 30,000 people in the county. In addition to the refugees outside the city, the county has a total population of more than 200,000, and now only one-quarter is left. It is really miserable.

In fact, this is pretty good. Huguang has not been in war for more than ten years like the northern provinces. Although the population has suffered a lot of losses, only half of the deaths, and the other populations are hidden in the mountains.

Henan, the hardest hit area of ​​war in the north, is different. There are less than 500,000 people left in the entire province, which is 95% less than the 20 million people at its heyday.

"Wuchang County, I am a born in Wuchang. This is my place of dragon development, so I am planning to exempt Wuchang County from money and grain, and at the same time, I will exempt Wuchang Prefecture from five years of money and grain!"

Zhu Hongsan had already decided to exempt himself from taxes, money and grain from his hometown. Although he committed more evil than good deeds in Wuchang County, he is now the emperor, so it would be embarrassing to be petty.

Zhu Hongsanman thought that Wuchang County was not grateful when he had issued an edict, but he didn't know that Wuchang County was not very excited, but just bowed and said to the order.

Zhu Hongsan saw Liang Guan’s appearance strangely and couldn’t help asking: “Wuchang County, why are you unhappy?”

"Your Majesty, it's not that I am unhappy. It is of course a good thing for Your Majesty to exempt the money and grain of our county, but the people who are exempt from the money and grain of our country cannot get benefits!"

"Oh? Why is this?"

When Liang Guan heard the emperor ask, he made a fuss in his heart and thought that anyway, it would be better to fight the death with those guys.
