My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 448

"Commander Tang Sai'er of the Migratory Guards, pays homage to His Highness the King of Han!"

Tang Sai'er, dressed in military uniform, solemnly saluted Zhu Gaoxu in Hanwang's Mansion in Delhi City.

"No need to be polite, just take a seat!"

Although Zhu Gaoxu was a little surprised when he saw Tang Sai'er, he still asked someone to give her a chair.

Before Tang Saier came, he had delivered the letter written by Zhu Zhanhe to Zhu Gaoxu, so Zhu Gaoxu also knew that Tang Saier was a female military officer specially recruited by his son, but seeing her so young, Zhu Gaoxu was still very surprised.

"Commander Tang, how are the immigrants doing now, did you encounter any problems on the way?"

At this time Zhu Gaoxu asked again.

"Your Majesty, the immigrants are now settled in Delba Port. They can come to Delhi after a few days of rest..."

Tang Saier reported the immigration situation in detail and also talked about their itinerary on the road, including meeting Zhang Zhong in the port of Malacca.

Zhu Gaoxu then asked about the situation in Daming. Tang Saier mainly talked about Zhu Zhanhe's emigration in Shandong, which surprised Zhu Gaoxu.

"Commander Tang, listen to what you said, there are still a large number of refugees waiting to be relocated in Shandong, but because there are not enough boats, they can only wait, right?"

At this time, Yang Shiqi who was sitting on the side suddenly asked.

"Exactly, if it weren't for the limited number of ships, we should have brought more immigrants this time, but in the end we only brought 3000 people."

Tang Saier nodded.

Thinking about the tragic situation of starvation everywhere in Shandong, what Tang Sai'er regrets most now is why he didn't bring more immigrants, so that more people can get out of the sea of ​​suffering earlier.

"Your Majesty, since there are still so many refugees in Shandong waiting to be relocated, I think it is better to send someone immediately to inform Governor Zhang and ask him to lead a large fleet to Shandong. After all, compared to Nanyang, Ming immigrants are more urgent!"

Yang Shiqi suggested to Zhu Gaoxu at this time.

Zhang Zhong's original task was to go to Nanyang and move some of the Han people from Jiugang and Manga to Tianzhu, but now there are refugees everywhere in Shandong, and Zhu Zhanhe will be under great pressure if he waits any longer. Well, immigrants from Nanyang can relocate at any time, so Yang Shiqi suggested that the fleet go to Shandong first.

"That makes sense. I'll send people to Nanyang as soon as possible and ask Zhang Zhong to let go of Nanyang in advance!"

Zhu Gaoxu nodded immediately after hearing this.

After talking about the business, Zhu Gaoxu suddenly asked Tang Saier: "By the way, I heard that the second son came with your fleet. Why didn't he come to Delhi this time?"

Tang Sai'er was stunned for a moment before realizing that the so-called second child must refer to Zhu Zhanqi, so he immediately replied: "My lord, the second prince is still staying in Delba Port for the time being, because he personally organized a ship this time. Team, there are a lot of things to deal with, and it may be a few days before I can leave."

"Really, I think he dare not come to see me?"

Zhu Gaoxu snorted coldly, although he hadn't seen him for a few years, he still didn't have any good feelings for Zhu Zhanqi's son, because this kid has been deliberately pissing him off since he was a child, so he didn't know how many times he beat him up?
When it came to Zhu Gaoxu's family affairs, Tang Sai'er didn't know how to answer, so he just sat there quietly and didn't speak.

Zhu Gaoxu asked Tang Sai'er a few words, and then asked her to retreat and rest.

Seeing the back of Tang Sai'er leaving, Zhu Gaoxu smiled to Yang Shiqi next to him: "I don't know what Zhan He thinks, but to let a woman be an official, I am afraid that he is the only one in Ming Dynasty who can do such a thing. "

"Your Majesty, I think the Crown Prince did the right thing. From the Crown Prince's letter, we can see that this Tang commander was the leader of the White Lotus Sect and has a great reputation among the people. With the chaos in Shandong, the government has lost He lost his prestige, but it was Commander Tang who won the hearts of the people, so the prince recruited her and her men, which made the immigration so smooth."

Yang Shiqi replied with a smile.

"That's what I said, but I don't know how to arrange for a woman to be an official now?"

Zhu Gaoxu spread his hands and said.

"Actually, it's easy to handle. The crown prince appointed her as the commander of the emigration guard. She is mainly responsible for the immigration. After the resettlement of these immigrants is settled, she will be sent to lead the fleet back to Daming and continue to assist the crown prince in emigrating from Shandong. gone."

"It makes sense. Zhanhe recruited the person, so of course we should let him take responsibility!"

Zhu Gaoxu also laughed out loud when he heard this.

Compared with the previous few years, Zhu Gaoxu's temper is much better now. After all, he is now in charge of a country's military and political affairs, so that he can no longer be as willful as before, and he can listen to the suggestions of Yang Shiqi and others. He is becoming more and more the lord of a country. style.

At the same time, Zhu Zhanqi, who stayed in Delba Port, is now in hesitation.

"Zhanqi, we've already arrived in Tianzhu, what else do you have to hesitate about? Didn't you already think about it and go to your father to ask questions immediately after you arrived?"

Zhang Chang poured Zhu Zhanqi a glass of wine, and then persuaded him.

"That's right, your father probably knows you're coming. If you don't go see him, it won't be a big deal."

Chen Ning also spoke at this time.

As Zhu Zhanqi's good friends, Zhang Chang and Chen Ning both knew Zhu Zhanqi's feelings and the main reason why he came to Tianzhu. However, they did not expect that Zhu Zhanqi would be a little timid after coming to Tianzhu. Stay in Derba and don't dare to go to Delhi.

"You two speak lightly."

Zhu Zhanqi glared at the two friends, and then looked out the window in a daze.

"Zhanqi, back then your elder brother advised you not to come, but you insisted on coming, but you didn't dare to see your father when you came. If you had known this, you might as well have listened to your elder brother."

Zhang Chang said again.

"Who says I dare not, I'm just thinking about what to say when I see him."

Zhu Zhanqi insisted.

"What's there to consider? Then you can ask whatever you want. Anyway, is there anything you can't ask between father and son?"

Zhang Chang encouraged again.

"Can……"

Zhu Zhanqi still hesitated. What he was most afraid of was that if he saw Zhu Gaoxu and asked about the truth about his mother's death. If the other party admitted that he really killed his mother, how would he face Zhu Gaoxu? Father?

"Zhan Qi, if you don't stop, you will suffer. Since you have come to this point, no matter how bad the result is, you must face it!"

Chen Ning saw Zhu Zhanqi's thoughts, so he stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said again.

Originally, Chen Ning, like Zhang Chang and Zhu Zhanhe, did not approve of Zhu Zhanqi coming to Tianzhu to meet Zhu Gaoxu, but now that he has come, he cannot give up halfway, otherwise Zhu Zhanqi will definitely regret it.

Hearing two good friends say that, and thinking about his strong attitude when he saw his eldest brother Zhu Zhanhe, Zhu Zhanqi finally nodded and said: "Okay, then I will leave for Delhi tomorrow."
