Chapter 35: Time Rushes 2
After coming here, Zhu Youxiao deeply reflected on his behavior, that is, it was too public, the so-called too much, even if he wanted to get Wanli's attention, but he still did too much.
Shoot the first bird!
This truth, which he had long understood in his previous life, but always ignored, has now been deeply engraved in his heart by the Wang family with his life, and he never dares to forget it. The same is true of his grounding. If it weren't for his arrogance and conceit, how could he have killed people with his own hands, but he didn't kill anyone, and he ended up in an extremely passive position, and finally used this trick of abandoning the pawn to protect the car to calm down all the situation.
Although he also thought that it was much more convenient and useful to stay here than staying in Ciqing Palace, he still couldn't hide that he was forced. After eating a trench and growing wise, after being beaten once, he naturally would not make a second mistake.
Therefore, after coming here, he did not rush to carry out the development of gunpowder and muskets, but carefully sorted out the knowledge in his mind, and he used it to compile infantry drill codes related to military training, and as for others, technical and institutional ones, they were sorted out and put aside, leaving them for later use. As for the theoretical classics, they should carefully read them by themselves to improve their political and military recuperation.
"Once the book is compiled, it's time for the opportunity to come in handy." After rubbing the books for a while, Zhu Youxiao thought with some expectation. The opportunity he was waiting for was actually one of the three major cases in Wanli in history, according to the time, this incident occurred in the forty-second year of Wanli, the fourth day of the fifth month. At this time, it was already late April, and it was only ten days at most.
The crown prince Zhu Changluo stayed at home every day and didn't go out, and then watched his children die one by one, he was very depressed, but he didn't dare to go out for a walk. And Zheng Guifei didn't know why, it seemed that she had died down, and she didn't make any moves. The entire harem, for a while, the Haiyan River was clear, and it was peaceful, and there was no sign of what was going to happen.
This made Zhu Youxiao a little worried, afraid that the shooting case would not happen truthfully because of the things he had done.
Of course, the calm of the harem does not mean that the court is calm, the battle between the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang and the Donglin Party is in full swing, and the battle is fierce. In the face of this all-out rout, several giants of the Donglin Party could not stop the momentum of collapse at all.
The situation of party struggle in the court gave him a glimmer of hope.
According to some of the texts in his mind that analyzed the attack case, there was a promoter of the Donglin Party behind this matter, and they took advantage of Zheng Guifei's stupidity to make such a farce, not for anything else, but to use the dispute over the national capital to divert attention and stop the current situation of the Donglin Party's defeat.
"Wait, I don't believe those old foxes can watch themselves being swept away." Licking his lips, Zhu Youxiao suppressed the expectation in his heart, and then closed the book with a snap and handed it to Liu Shimin next to him. Looking at the middle-aged eunuch who respectfully took the book, he suddenly showed a playful smile again, as if he remembered something interesting.
From the information in his mind, Zhu Youxiao already knew why the name of this eunuch was familiar to him, and this eunuch with extraordinary writing would be Wei Zhongxian's person in the future, and then he would change his name to Liu Ruoyu, and wrote a palace history book - "Zhizhong Zhi".
"Shi Min ......." Looking at Liu Shimin, who had a somewhat elegant temperament, Zhu Youxiao was excited in his heart, and that kind of smug playful smile appeared again. Who knew that his smile made Eunuch Liu's heart tremble%2C tremble. Whenever the master shows such a smile, there will always be some strange things in the Dharma body, sometimes there is no, but sometimes it will make life worse than death.
I remember the last time I had such a smile was when this infantry drill book had just been written, and the young master showed such an amiable look, but it made familiar people numb. And the consequences were unexpected, all the eunuchs, including the three of them, were all pulled out for drills and trained strictly in accordance with the regulations on the infantry drill code.
According to the master, there are no soldiers, then use you to make up the numbers, anyway, it's just a queue training, and it doesn't require much physical strength≡ after that, all the eunuchs here began a miserable life of smelling chickens and dancing, and they were filled with queues and marching supplies with guns every day.
Thinking of this, Liu Shimin's whole body trembled again, but he still had a little expectation in his heart, hoping that he would have the opportunity to meet that few things.
"Master......" Liu Shimin cried and mourned, trembling all over, and almost knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"Nothing! I just want to change your name. Looking at Liu Shimin, who was even more like a pendulum, Zhu Youxiao wanted to laugh at the lethality of ≡ smile, and he gradually understood that he also wanted to change it. But whenever he thinks of this act of creating history, changing history, and interfering in history, he can't help but get excited, and such a smile can't help but appear. After changing it a few times without effect, he didn't care about it and let it go, anyway, it was just a harmless little habit.
"Please give me a name!" As soon as he heard this, Liu Shimin immediately breathed a sigh of relief, just changing his name, not a big deal. It seems that I am quite lucky, and I have a chance to run into a thing. He thought secretly in his heart, but it didn't affect the movements at hand, and immediately knelt down three times and bowed nine times, and bowed to worship.
"Why don't you call it Liu Ruoyu!" Zhu Youxiao said with a smile, and the smug and playful smile on his face became more and more obvious. However, Liu Shimin, who knew the specific details, was not afraid, but wondered in his heart what the name Ruoyu contained.
"Master Xie gave him a name, and the old slave will be Liu Ruoyu in the future." Liu Shimin, in the future, Liu Ruoyu will be foolish, and he knelt down again to thank him for his name.
"Well, I hope you are as your name suggests, be stupid, and don't talk about things that shouldn't be said." A cold light flashed in Zhu Youxiao's eyes, and he stared at Liu Ruoyu tightly. The infantry drill code is too much to do, and if there is a discerning person, there are too many things that can be opened from here.
"Yes, sir, the slave will never talk about these things with any literati in the future." Liu Ruoyu responded loudly, and the slogan was loud. But he thought in his heart, sure enough, these strange symbols are very important, and the master has reminded me by changing his name, and he should keep it in mind in the future, and never leak it out, hindering the master's actions.
However, if the master wants to promote these symbols in the future, as the first person to learn this set of symbols, as the true biography of the master, he will not be able to leave a mark in this prosperous world of literature. Thinking of the depths, Liu Ruoyu even showed a trace of intoxication on his face.
"Alright, let's go down." Staring at Liu Ruoyu's face, Zhu Youxiao was a little suspicious. Still, he nodded his head in disbelief, indicating that he knew. In the past few years, when he was training, these eunuchs finally knew the seriousness of secrecy, or they knew that he valued secrecy, as long as it was something he had discussed or said, he didn't dare to spread it a word.
At the beginning, there were nearly thirty eunuchs who came with him, but now there are only twenty-four left, and the rest are all killed by him with a rod because of the crime of forbidding Chinese. When there were fewer people and no work to do, he added a group of firefighters, who were specially used for chores on his periphery.
"By the way, go blow the whistle for the emergency assembly, the infantry drill is complete, you should celebrate!" As if remembering something, Zhu Youxiao commanded Liu Ruoyu who had not yet left.
Hearing the words "urgent gathering", Liu Ruoyu, who had not completely stepped out of the door, immediately snorted and almost fell. Fortunately, he reacted in time and held on to the door frame to stabilize his figure.
"Yes, sir." After standing firm, he took a deep breath before exhaling and answering.
"Doot~Doot~Doot~" Three long whistles sounded under the silent night sky. Then there was a sound of kicking and kicking, and after a few knocks, the young eunuchs in green clothes rushed out from the top of an attic next to the school grounds, and under the leadership of the two leaders, quickly stood up, and then began to count.
"1, 2, 3 ......." reported the number of sounds in the empty school field one after another, each number of reports is very closely connected, one after another, although the eunuchs' voices are sharp, but still reveal a majestic beauty.
Soon, the two leaders finished the team and ran in turn towards Zhu Youxiao, who was standing straight in the middle of the school field. Through the gradually rising moonlight, it can be seen that the two leaders turned out to be Wei Zhongxian and Wang Chengen.
"Report to Your Highness, the first emergency assembly of the training team has been completed, it should be ten people, and it is actually ten people, please instruct. Wei Zhongxian! After running in front of Zhu Youxiao, Wei Zhongxian snapped upright, and then knelt on one knee and performed a kneeling ritual in the army.
"As planned." Zhu Youxiao, who was wearing a bright yellow military uniform, looked extremely majestic, with a height of more than one meter and a half, and a strong and capable body, making him look similar to many adult eunuchs.
"Yes!" After loudly answering the promise, Wei Zhongxian stood up, turned around and ran back. Then Wang Chengen came to report. The whole process lasted about three minutes, and after the assembly, twenty eunuchs, including the two leading eunuchs, began to practice. All kinds of slogans erupted loudly from the two eunuchs, although they were a little sharp and harsh for physiological reasons, but they still faintly revealed a strong iron blood.
Looking at the twenty eunuchs who were in neat motion, Zhu Youxiao smiled with relief, this was an unexpected joy. At first, he just wanted to verify the infantry phalanx training method he had written, and use these eunuchs as experiments to see if the slogans and orders conflicted with the idioms of this era, but in the end, he trained except a group of pacesetters.
Although the movements of these eunuchs are a little weak due to physical reasons, they are very neat and standard, and they are enough for appearance and demonstration.
"Flat spear! Kill! The majestic shouts came, looking at the eunuchs in Tsing Yi who formed a small phalanx, Zhu Youxiao smiled happily, these can be used as the initial instructors, which can save a lot of effort.
