Chapter 142

Five miles south of Linhuai County, there is a large manor called Hufuzhuang.

As the name suggests, the owner of the villa is surnamed Hu, and he is definitely not an ordinary person who dares to call the mansion in Dixiang.

It is said that Hu Taigong, the owner of the villa, is the father of Hongwu Emperor's favorite concubine Hu Chongfei, and the grandfather of the sixth son of the emperor Zhu Zhen, king of Chu.Serious relatives of the royal family...

Moreover, according to gossip, the Hu family used to be the king of the mountain, so there has never been anyone who is open-eyed and dares to come to harass the door in the middle of the night.

Then there will be this day.

In the middle of the night, there was a knock on the closed door of Hu Mansion.

When it was quieter, the knocking of the copper door knocker was so ear-piercing that the dogs in the village couldn't help barking.

"Where is the night wandering god?" The servant who watched the night cursed and opened the gate of the villa, and looked out through the lantern.

I didn't see it at first glance, so I was shocked.

I looked down and saw that it was a little beggar with unkempt hair, ragged clothes, bare feet, half a broken bowl and a bamboo stick in his hand.

"I'll go to your ancestors, you damn little beggar! How can you knock on the door in the middle of the night to beg for food?!" The servant immediately yelled.

"I'm not begging for food." The little beggar said with teary eyes, paused, and then changed his words seriously: "Well, I'm not here to beg for food."

"Then what are you doing here?" The servant was annoyed.

"I'm here to find my grandfather."

"Grandpa? What's your name..." the servant asked.In fact, he has a good temper. If it was someone else's house, he would have released the dog a long time ago...

"Uh..." The little beggar was stunned.Before coming here, his mother only told him that his grandfather's house was in Linhuai Hufu Village, but she never told him what his grandfather's name was.

The point is that he didn't ask, which is embarrassing.

"Fuck, squirm..." Seeing that he didn't even know his grandfather's name, the servant slammed the door shut.

Unexpectedly, the little beggar outside became angry.The banging on the door got louder!Still shouting outside: "Open the door for me, open the door! I am Zhu Zhen, king of Chu! My mother is Concubine Hu Chong!"

"Are you the king of Chu? Am I still the emperor?" The servant opened the door angrily, and wanted to teach him a lesson, this little beggar who dared to discredit their mother.

Unexpectedly, the little beggar was waiting for this moment, he sneaked in through the crack of the door and under his armpit, and ran into the village as fast as he could.

While running, he yelled loudly: "Grandpa, grandpa! I am Zhu Zhen, king of Chu! Come out and see me!"

"Catch him quickly, don't let him run around!" There was a panic in the mansion, and the servants and nurses roared angrily.

Soon, the little beggar was surrounded and knocked to the ground.I hate that the servant who opened the door for him will beat him when he takes off his shoes.

"Call you a fucking mess!"

"If you dare to touch this king with a finger, I will let my father kill you...all the nine clans except my grandfather's family!" The little beggar raised his head and glared at him.

I don't know if it was due to the burst of arrogance, but the sole of the servant's shoe didn't dare to drop immediately.

"Wait." At this moment, a calm male voice sounded.

"Housekeeper Hu." The guards stood up and saluted one after another.

Butler Hu came over with his clothes on, and asked the little beggar, "Who do you say you are?"

"Gu is Zhu Zhen, King of Chu in Ming Dynasty! My father Zhu Hongwu, my mother Hu Sanniang!" The little beggar finally remembered his mother's boudoir name.

"Boy, are you still talking nonsense? That is to say, we are a decent family now. If it were in the past, we would have cut off your tongue..." A guard smiled strangely.

The butler was not so meng lang, he obviously knew something.

As soon as Butler Hu stretched out his hand, the nurse hurriedly presented a lantern.

"Hiss..." The butler took the lantern and looked at the little beggar's face, he couldn't help gasping.

"Hiss, hiss..." Hearing the sound, the guards quickly held up a lantern to look at the little beggar's face, and then gasped together.Let this Meng Xia night, which is hard to get rid of the heat, add a bit of coolness.

~~
"Old Master, Old Madam, people are here." Butler Hu personally lit a lantern and led Mrs. Hu and his wife into the flower hall.

Master Hu's eyebrows are the same as Zhu Zhen's, only white.

The flower hall is brightly lit, and on a rosewood round table, there are all kinds of noodle soup and steamed food, as well as boiled meatballs, stewed sticks, etc... These are all night-time nurses, servants, and girls in the kitchen.

Master Hu and his wife entered the flower hall tremblingly, and saw a little beggar squatting on the official hat chair beside the table, holding a bowl of white rice in one hand, and meatballs in the other, stuffing them into his mouth regardless of whether they were hot or not.

The old couple saw that his mouth was full of things, and his cheeks were bulging.Coupled with those black, thick and curved eyebrows, and big round eyes that choked...

"What else is there to recognize? If it's not my grandson, it's strange!" The old man said decisively: "Old Hu, you are so confused, you can't see that this baby is exactly the same as his uncle when he was a child!"

"Really." Butler Hu nodded quickly and said, "At that time, his cheeks were swollen. Now it looks like it's swollen. If there is another double chin, it's really carved out of the same mold..."

"Son, I'm your grandmother." Mrs. Hu shook off her support and took two steps forward.

"Grandma..." The little beggar, who was burying his head in eating, slowly turned his head when he heard the words, but his mouth did not stop chewing.

"Woo, grandma..." The little beggar, who had gone through a lot of hardships, finally saw his relatives, and his emotions were like a bursting tide. He sobbed at first, and then burst into tears.The food in the mouth is straight to the residue.

Loved ones.When he cried, the old lady also started to cry, hugged the little beggar, and cried: "Oh, this child must be Sanniang's baby. Look at how ugly he is when he cries, exactly the same as his second uncle when he was a child."

"Ah, it's really Your Highness." Taigong Hu hurriedly took Butler Hu to kneel down and kowtow to the little beggar. "Veteran Hu Ren, kowtow to His Royal Highness the King of Chu!"

"Hey, grandpa, get up quickly." The little beggar cried even harder. "It's been almost a year since anyone called me that!"

"I'm here, baby, what evil is Zhu Chongba doing!" Taigong Hu's heart was broken, as if he lacked respect for the current emperor.

~~
The little beggar is naturally Zhu Zhen who escaped from the thief's den...

However, after escaping from feigning death that day, one person and one cow floated in Hongze Lake for two days before finally landing.

As soon as I inquired, oh well, the direction was wrong.Now it is 250 miles away from Linhuai...

His Highness the King of Chu, who wanted to cry but had no tears, had no choice but to bite the bullet and embark on the road back home.

He never expected that the 250 miles would be so bumpy.

When he was fifty miles away, he was so hungry that he was hungry.Under the pressure of survival, he had no choice but to inherit his father's business and start begging.

He also tried to earn some travel expenses by relying on the Allegro books.And the effect is not bad, earning dozens of pennies in one morning.But at noon, a few ruffians beat him up and robbed him of his money...

Only then did Zhu Zhen realize that the two older brothers played such a big role.Without their protection, I couldn't sell my art even if I wanted to.

But his bad luck was not over yet.The beggar is holding the head of the cow, which looks very strange.So someone doing good soon...

On the way, another group of hooligans robbed him of the Great Sage of Ping Tian.

Fortunately, he is a boy, he is also old, his skin is rough, and his appearance is abstract...

And, it was very edible at first glance, so the other party didn't snatch him away.

Zhu Zhen had no choice but to go on the road alone, begging and inquiring about where he was going.Along the way, he was chased by dogs, chased by geese, kicked by donkeys, and driven away... After suffering a lot, he finally arrived at Hufuzhuang.
