My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 621 Zhu Gaosui and his son appear

Zhang Zhong, who was directing his men, noticed that Zhu Zhanhe was holding a telescope and staring in the direction of the dock, so he stepped forward curiously and asked: "Zhanhe, what are you looking at?"

"Saw an acquaintance!"

Zhu Zhanhe replied solemnly.

"Who?"

Zhang Zhong asked curiously, because when Zhu Zhanhe answered, he still did not put down the telescope.

"My cousin Zhu Zhan'an."

Zhu Zhanhe replied slowly.

"It turned out to be him! Didn't he disappear with King Zhao? Did he actually come to Tianjin Port?"

Zhang Zhong was also shocked when he heard this. He had also heard Zhu Zhanhe talk about the disappearance of Zhu Gaosui and his son before.

Zhu Zhanhe stared at Zhu Zhanhe's figure with a telescope. Although the man was wearing coarse cloth and had a short beard, which looked very different from usual, Zhu Zhanhe recognized him at a glance.

Zhu Zhanan was seen walking up and down among the crowds at the pier, looking around warily from time to time, and finally stepped on the pedal and boarded a small merchant ship.

Zhu Zhanhe saw the three words "Guijia" written on the side of the ship, so he remembered it in his heart, and then asked Liu Ke to call Liu Ke and asked him to quietly send people to monitor the Turtle. If Zhu Zhanan and Zhu Gaosui were found, immediately report them. Come back and report.

"Zhan He, you don't want to help Zhu Zhanji catch your third uncle and his son, do you?"

After Zhang Zhong saw Zhu Zhanhe finishing the arrangements, he stepped forward and asked.

"I'm not in the mood to help him, but I am quite curious about my third uncle. Although he refuses to admit that he poisoned my uncle, I have always suspected that the person who assassinated my eldest brother was sent by him. I couldn't find him before. That’s all, now that I’ve seen him, why not go find him and ask him for details.”

Zhu Zhanhe smiled slightly.

Anyway, I am idle. Zhu Gaojiu will not come back until the day after tomorrow. While there is still time, I can find Zhu Gaosui to answer some of my doubts.

"If your third uncle is really in Tianjin, then he is really brave. He has escaped from the capital for so long. Everyone thought he went to other ports, but he didn't expect to still stay in Tianjin."

Zhang Zhong also laughed.

It has been more than a month since Zhu Gaosui and his son escaped from the capital. Dongchang and Jinyiwei, who were chasing them, initially searched Tianjin Port intensively to prevent them from going to sea from here.

But as time went by, Zhu Gaosui and his son never showed up, so Dongchang and Jinyiwei also assigned manpower to other ports to monitor, because in their opinion, Zhu Gaosui and his son probably did not dare to come to Tianjin, but went to a farther port Go to sea.

"This is called darkness under the lamp. Everyone thought they had escaped, but they didn't expect that they were still in Tianjin!"

Zhu Zhanhe sneered and said, if you want to talk about scheming, Zhu Gaosui is definitely the master.

Zhu Zhanhe even suspected that after Zhu Gaosui escaped from the capital, he probably didn't go anywhere, so he found a place to hide around the capital. After the storm passed, he quietly came to Tianjin and prepared to go to sea.

The people Zhu Zhanhe sent out to monitor soon made new discoveries. For example, the owner of the Turtle Shell was a Japanese. He was born in Kyushu Island and joined the Ming Dynasty early. Therefore, he obtained the right to do business and had several ships in his name. Often travels between Ming Dynasty and Japan.

As for Zhu Zhan'an, after getting on the boat, he only stayed for most of an hour. It seemed that he was discussing something with someone. Then he got off the boat and left the dock to a small courtyard in the south of Tianjin.

Although Tianjin is a new city, as the largest port in the north and close to the capital, the business here is extremely prosperous. Many businessmen have opened workshops in Tianjin to facilitate transportation. Most of these workshops are concentrated in the south of the city.With a workshop, it is natural to recruit workers, so a large number of poor people came to Tianjin with their families and made a living by working in the workshops. No matter what era, capitalists are blood-sucking, and the working craftsmen are the blood-sucking ones. Object, the treatment is not high.

Therefore, many craftsmen can only live together around the workshops, which can save a lot of transportation costs. Therefore, in addition to workshops, there are residential areas one after another in the south of the city. Most of the houses here are built spontaneously and there is no planning. Therefore, it seems It looks messy and belongs to the slums of Tianjin City.

No one expected that Zhu Zhanxi, the eldest son of Prince Zhao, would actually come to the slums in the south of Tianjin. Moreover, he had never come out since he entered that small courtyard.

"Your Majesty, I suspect that King Zhao may also be hiding in that courtyard!"

After Liu Ke reported to Zhu Zhanhe, he also expressed his judgment.

"Oh? Why are you so suspicious?"

Zhu Zhanhe raised his eyebrows and asked again.

"According to reports from his subordinates, when Prince Zhao returned to the courtyard, he bought some food at a roadside restaurant, which was probably enough for two or three people. Therefore, besides Prince Zhao, there must be other people in the courtyard, and The only possibility is King Zhao!"

Liu Ke replied again.

"It makes sense. The father and son disappeared together, and they didn't seem to bring anyone else with them. They probably wouldn't have separated halfway. From this, it seems that my third uncle might really be hiding in that small courtyard!"

Zhu Zhanhe also nodded in agreement.

"Your Majesty, I have inquired clearly. The Turtle Shell will leave the port early tomorrow morning. If Prince Zhao and his son want to leave by boat, they will definitely board the ship tomorrow morning. They can easily control the people by then!"

Liu Ke smiled and said again, the customs was founded by Zhu Zhanhe. It is too easy for them to inquire about the entry and exit records of a ship.

"Okay, keep an eye out and don't get discovered. If you find Uncle San and the others trying to get on the boat tomorrow morning, stop them immediately!"

Zhu Zhanhe immediately made a decision.

Now he is also being monitored by Zhu Zhanji's people in Tianjin, so it is inconvenient for Liu Ke and others to take action in Tianjin city, but it is much more convenient when they arrive at the port. After all, there are many people and boats here, plus Zhu Zhanhe and the others are The fleet is also in the port, and it is not difficult to control a ship.

Liu Ke agreed and immediately turned around and left to do something.

Early the next morning, as soon as the genius had dawned, Liu Ke once again asked to see Zhu Zhanhe and reported: "Your Majesty, it has been confirmed. Prince Zhao and his son are in that courtyard. They have just left the courtyard and are on their way to the dock! "

"Very well, is there anyone else besides them?"

Zhu Zhanhe clapped his hands excitedly and then asked again.

"No, it's just the father and son. They were probably afraid of leaking the news, so they sent everyone around them away."

Liu Ke replied again.

"Great, once they get on the boat, I will immediately control both the people and the boat!"

Zhu Zhanhe gave the order, and Liu Ke immediately followed the order and left.
