Domineering Daming

Zhu Xu smiled. He had a plan for all of these. Taking advantage of the disaster, the resistance to development would be much smaller. In the next ten years, he would stare at the Royal Political Council and make great strides in development.

After pondering for a while, Zhu Xu looked at Bi Maokang again, and said, "About the order from Akabane Trading Company, have you received it?"

Bi Maokang was slightly stunned, and said: "Yes, I received it. There are a total of [-] cannons and [-] muskets. Others are not counted."

Zhu Xu nodded, and said: "These are just the beginning, there will be more in the future, the Armament Bureau will stop production now, and focus on trading, etc., first listen to me, the sold equipment is two times lower than my Ming's equipment." Grades, some parts, and gunpowder must be kept strictly confidential to ensure that outsiders cannot imitate them, so that our business can last for a long time. If you don’t produce the best, it doesn’t mean that you should stop, concentrate on research and development, and keep improving. People come from behind..."

Bi Maokang understood, raised his hand and said, "Observe the order!"

Zhu Xu smiled, and said after deliberation: "If the Military Weapons Bureau is not enough, I will gradually eliminate it in the army. To add, when my Ming survives this disaster, the Military Weapons Bureau will definitely research more advanced ones. When the time comes, we will mass-produce it and install it..."

What Daming needs to do now is to streamline its troops and streamline its administration. Zhu Xu also hopes that the export of firearms will supplement Daming's finances. Naturally, he can no longer simply install them. He also uses this to eliminate, replace, and unify Daming's chaotic equipment.

Zhu Xu originally wanted to look around, but the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and he was too cold to reach out. He didn't intend to embarrass others. Anyway, there will be more opportunities in the future. After thinking about it, he said: "After I leave, you should seriously write In a plan, what are the prospects, what are the difficulties, and those who need my help, all must be listed one by one. I want to read it, be sure to be detailed, and be more courageous. I need to communicate more with missionaries and learn from each other's strengths. What should be kept secret should be strictly kept secret, be careful, don’t be taken away by them, read the sage books for decades, and then believe in some god, if I know, I will never let you go lightly..."

Song Yingxing is not Xu Guangqi, he does not have too much enthusiasm for Catholicism, he looks very ordinary, Bi Maokang is even more enthusiastic about "progress" in his official career.

"Of order." Both of them raised their hands together.

Zhu Xu had expectations for both of them, and he gave all the support he should give, including the official's wish, and then he waved his whip and vigorously encouraged him!

He raised his head and looked outside, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the ground was already a thin layer, if he continued to delay, he might not be able to return to the palace today.

After clapping his hands, Zhu Xu stood up and said, "That's all for today. I'll take a closer look when the weather clears up. The main tasks of the Weapons Bureau will focus on research and development in the future, and separate production. Akabane Trading Company There will be orders coming over there, and now the whole country is full of natural disasters, and I am short of money and food, and you all have to be prepared to cut down on food and clothing..."

Song Yingxing could guess these things about Bi Maokang, but he didn't care, and said with a bow, "Yes."

After explaining a few more words, Zhu Xu ordered Cao Huachun to prepare and must go back early.

Just as Zhu Xu was about to leave, the little girl quietly pulled Zhu Xu's sleeve, raised her face, and kept blinking.

Zhu Xu suddenly remembered, turned his head to look at Bi Maokang and said: "By the way, make two small swords for these two little girls. They will look better. Don't unseal them, and send them to the palace."

Bi Maokang had doubts about the identities of these two people before. Although he could see that they were women disguised as men, he still didn't know their identities. After Zhu Xu said this, he immediately understood, and raised his hand and said: "Yes, I must build two suitable for you." Send the princess' little sword to the palace as soon as possible, if the princess is not satisfied, I will change it later."

"Satisfied, satisfied, definitely satisfied!" The little girl nodded repeatedly, restrained and excited.

Zhu Xu rubbed the little girl's head and walked out.

Standing under the eaves, goose feathers are covered with snow, and there is a bigger trend.

The little girl crossed her arms, looked up at Zhu Xu and said, "Uncle Emperor, it's cold."

Zhu Xu turned his head, Little Yongning and Li Xiangjun were blown by the cold wind, their faces turned pale and they shivered.

He took off his cloak for the two of them, looked at the sky, and said to himself, "It's really not the time for this heavy snow." This snow not only disrupted his plans for today, but also affected the entire production and economic activities in the north. make an impact.

Song Yingxing looked up, and said: "Your Majesty, I have observed it before. The snow came suddenly. It may not stop in three to five days. It is normal for the snow to be knee-deep."

Zhu Xu glanced at him, and suddenly said: "Will Qin Tianjian know about such a thing? Will the cabinet be warned?"

"Yes." Song Yingxing said concisely.

Zhu Xu nodded, looked at Wang Wensheng and said, "Let's go."

"Yes." Wang Wensheng turned around and ordered someone to bring the carriage over.

The two little girls, Zhu Xu and others got into the carriage one after another, Bi Maokang and Song Yingxing raised their hands together and said: "I will send you off to the emperor respectfully."

Zhu Xu's carriage slowly left the base of the Military Weapons Bureau. Sitting in the carriage, he could feel that it was difficult to move, and the snow was falling more and more.

"Hurry up, don't get stuck on the way." Zhu Xu said as he warmed the stove in the carriage.

"Yes." Wang Wensheng ordered people to speed up.The snow is indeed getting bigger and bigger, and if you don't go, you may really be trapped halfway.

Bi Maokang and Song Yingxing watched Zhu Xu's carriage leave, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.In any case, the rumors of His Majesty the current emperor are terrible, and most of the courtiers are in a state of "awe".

"Chang Geng, congratulations." Bi Maokang was very concerned about his official career, knowing that Song Yingxing was going to be promoted, he said with a smile.

Song Yingxing was stunned and then realized that this was a four-level promotion, so he couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

At the beginning, he gave up his ambition to be an official. He worked as an instructor in the county school for three years, and he became a seventh-rank official with special rewards. After three years in the Royal Political Academy, he became a sixth-rank official. Thinking of it, in one day, he will be among the ranks of fourth-rank officials!

Although he was still in a marginal state, he also thought about Wang Qiaonian's becoming the Minister of Dali Temple, that is to say, he might enter the imperial court through this, a real official!

He, a student craftsman obsessed with strange skills and ingenuity, can actually have such a day!

Bi Maokang looked at Song Yingxing's expression, chuckled secretly, turned around and left without saying anything.

It took Song Yingxing a long time to react, and suddenly looked at the direction Zhu Xu was leaving, and said in a deep voice, "The emperor is right, and the Royal Political Council is right. Entering an official position must not be a matter of imperial examinations, and tolerance is the way to go!"

At the same time, two groups of people were confronting each other in front of the gate of the Royal Political Council.

A group of people is from the Supervisory Council and the Anti-Corruption Bureau led by Wei Xuelian, and the other group is from the Department of Punishments and Prisons of the Ministry of Punishment and the Department of Literature and Selection of the Ministry of Officials. The posture of swords and soldiers facing each other!

Chapter 822

The two groups of people were very angry, confronting each other, and they were on the verge of breaking out.

The leader of the Wenxuan Department is Yuan Renxiao, a doctor from the Ministry of Officials. From the fourth rank, he is in charge of the Wenxuan Department, responsible for the removal and transfer of officials across the country.If it is sent abroad, it is also a prefect of a high-level prefecture. The promotion route is basically transferred back to Beijing to serve as the minister of the six ministries or the minister of various temples.

Therefore, Yuan Renxiao's power and responsibilities are very heavy, and even the servants of the other five ministries may not be able to catch up. There is a hint from "Yin Shangshu" that he belongs to the group of people who cannot be offended.

Although Wei Xuelian is the head of the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Governor's Council, his rank is only from the fifth rank, and he has been promoted one after another. Last year, he was only from the sixth rank. No matter from which aspect, he is far behind Yuan Renxiao. comparability.

Yuan Renxiao is only in his early forties this year, and to be a doctor in the official department, his ability is naturally extraordinary.

With his hands behind his back, he looked at Wei Xuelian imposingly, and said in a deep voice: "Wei Xuelian, I'm on a mission. If you dare to stop me again, don't blame me for being rude!"

Wei Xuelian refused to give an inch, and said coldly: "What kind of business are you carrying out? What can the Royal Political Council do with you? It's nothing more than a false public benefit, taking the opportunity to retaliate! Don't forget, the dean of the Royal Political Council is Mr. Bi Ge, the deputy The principal, Mr. Wang, has been transferred to be the Minister of Dali Temple, if there is any case, it will not be your turn to intervene!"

The corners of Yuan Renxiao's face were slender and his eyes were iron, and he said: "This has nothing to do with your Anti-Corruption Bureau and the Governor's Council! If I really do something wrong, you can impeach me to the Ministry of Officials, the cabinet, or even your Prince Jing. Now, get out of the way!"

The corners of Wei Xuelian's face moved, his eyes widened.According to the system, Yuan Renxiao was justified, and he could not stop him. Now he is somewhat at a loss, as if he was deliberately blocking the officials from running errands, so he was a little weaker in momentum.

"My lord, don't let me!"

"My lord, if you give in, then the graduates of the Political Academy will be sent to a corner by them. As seniors, we must not sit idly by!"

"Yes, my lord, the Ministry of Officials is clearly retaliating against those who were arrested by our Anti-Corruption Bureau. If we back down on this, our Anti-Corruption Bureau will be unable to do anything!"

"Today they come to the Royal Government Council, and tomorrow they will go to our Governor's Council! My lord, let's fight them!"

The people in the anti-corruption bureau behind Wei Xuelian did not have Wei Xuelian's rationality. They were all filled with righteous indignation and refused to give up an inch. They were even more powerful and angry than the officials.

Wei Xuelian was in such a fight, so naturally he couldn't back down, and put his hands behind his back, and said coldly: "Aren't your officials working in the yamen? When did you run out? If you want to touch the Royal Political Council, have you considered the consequences? ? Does your Master Shang Shu know?”

Yuan Renxiao took the initiative, fearless, looked straight at Wei Xuelian expressionlessly, and said: "Now the snow is getting heavier and heavier, if you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for being rude, if something happens, don't say you Even you, Prince Jing, can't please you!"
