Early in the morning, Yan Chengjin received the news of Song Jing's visit.

Song Jing bowed: "My lord, the mine is ready." ”

It takes a lot of sulphur to make mines.

Changing the ratio of sulfur to saltpeter will cause a lateral explosion.

Mines are similar to stone cannons, but have been improved to be much more powerful.

As long as the formula of sulfur and saltpeter is clear, alum oil is added, wrapped in a thin and appropriate iron tool, and the lead is threaded in a bamboo tube.

With a little modification, it is easy to create landmines.

It's just that when installed, it is a hundred times more dangerous than the afterlife.

"This official praised you in front of His Majesty, don't let this official lose his trust in His Majesty."

Yan Chengjin guessed that his current credit value in His Majesty's heart was at least ninety points.

Lined up behind the cabinet of three.

"The students obeyed." Song Jingdao.

Yan Chengjin nodded slightly, although he did not accept Song Jing as a student, he has always been commensurate with a student.

With this character alone, he can get a passing grade in his heart.

Song Jing took the craftsmen of Wang Gongchang, with mines and a hundred mysterious firearms, and hurried north.

Yan Chengjin looked at the chariot and slowly left the capital.

He Neng smiled and said to Yan Chengjin: "Young master, the tiger wine is brewed, do you want to send some to the house?" ”

Young Master Ben doesn't even have a woman, you let Young Master Ben drink this?

Yan Chengjin thought about it, Li Dongyang might be able to use it, and said, "Go and let Wang Busui send three pots, go to the Li Mansion, and this young master will wait for you in the Li Mansion." ”

Not long after, the sedan chair arrived at the Li Mansion.

Yan Chengjin waited for a long time, and then saw Wang Busui coming in a carriage and handed over three pots of tiger wine.

Li Dongyang didn't expect that Yan Chengjin came with wine again, "Drinking is wrong, don't you know that this official rarely drinks alcohol?" Take it back. ”

"My lord, this is the first batch of tiger wine brewed, and it has the effect of dragon spirit and tiger fierceness."

Li Dongyang glanced at the mediocre wine jug: "The old man accepted it with a thick face." ”

After the housekeeper took the wine down, Li Dongyang looked at Yan Chengjin again, and returned to the previous temperature: "What did you let Song Jing go north?" He is a scholar, and he can't fight. ”

"Song Jing is extremely talented and learned, and he should be of great use, if he doesn't go north, how can he make contributions."

The Hongzhi Dynasty is relatively clear, and as long as you make meritorious service, Your Majesty will almost reward and reuse.

It's like he knows that Wang Yue is seriously corrupt, but he doesn't mind letting him be the trilateral commander.

For other emperors of the Ming Dynasty, there would not be such good luck.

For example, the Zhengde and Jiajing dynasties experienced by Wang Shouren, although they have made many merits, they cannot be reused.

Although Song Jing had meritorious service before, he was not yet an official, and His Majesty could not give him a promotion.

Editing classics in the Hanlin Academy can be called a rapid promotion.

For more than 200 years in the Ming Dynasty, there have been hundreds of champions, but there are only a handful of people like Li Dongyang and Liu Jian.

Therefore, Yan Chengjin came to a conclusion.

The official is big, and it has little to do with whether he is the champion or not, it depends on the emperor.

What Song Jing's official career is, it depends on this time to go north to fight against the Tatars.

Yan Chengjin saw that Li Dongyang had no intention of talking about his daughter's marriage, so he got up and left.

Li Qing'e stood in the corridor of the middle courtyard, holding a sachet in her hand: "My lord gave my father three pots of wine, so let's take this sachet as a gift in return, the sachet can repel mosquitoes." ”

The fat girl Fengjiao said: "The spices in it are prepared by the young lady herself. ”

Yan Chengjin took the sachet and said to Li Qing'e, "Thank you, Miss." ”

The fat girl's face became uneasy, and she saw Li Dongyang walking over quickly.

"Qing'e, my father's old problem in his leg is committed, you go and get rice wine for your father." Li Dongyang spoke in a strange tone and looked at Yan Chengjin.

"My lord, the tiger wine sent by the lower officials has the same effect."

Tiger wine also has the effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis, of course, taking it internally is another effect.

Out of the gate of the Yan Mansion, how could he look at the sachet in Yan Chengjin's hand, "-->>."

The young master has never accepted foreign objects, why did he recycle the sachets? ”

"Your salary for today is gone."

………

Li Zhaoxian looked at the vast sea, and he was about to arrive in Hainan.

Facing the sea breeze, you can return to the capital in January at the earliest.

I don't know if my sister and Lord Yan are married every day.

Liu Jin ran out of a huff: "Oh no! Li Ye? ”

"What?" Li Zhao turned around first.

"The rubber tree we brought back to Lord Yan has sprouted!"

Liu Jin fiddled with the lumps of the rubber tree and grew tender green teeth.

"What can I do? I can't twist the white juice, if Lord Yan says that this is not a rubber tree, won't it kill us? ”

When he returned to the capital, with Lord Yan's cautious temperament, he was afraid that he would prove that it was a rubber tree.

But the rubber trees all sprouted, and the pimple was peeled off.

"The land of Hainan can give birth to all things, stop for a while, you should order someone first, and send half of it to Xu Qianhu to plant." Li Zhaoxian said.

In Hainan, the plants grow very fast, if it is really the rubber tree that Lord Yan wants, it can be transported back to the capital with the autumn grain in winter.

"That's the only way to do it, Master Li, you have to testify to us, this is really a rubber tree." Liu Jin said.

………

In late August, the cabinet was on duty.

On the bookcases of Li Dongyang, Xie Qian, and Liu Jian, there are stacks of manuscripts that are high in Qi Rengao.

Liu Jian held a thick new book in his hand, and Lao Huai was pleased: "After five years, with the concerted efforts of all the princes, the Daming Guild Dictionary has finally been completed. ”

The Ming Dynasty is a collection of 100 books, and it was finally completed after many proofreadings and repairs by the Hanyuan and the cabinet.

"Go and see Your Majesty, since the Tatar army has been overwhelmed, there has finally been a happy event." Xie Qian said with a smile.

morning

Yan Chengjin saw that the three members of the cabinet were flushed.

"Your Majesty, the Ming Huidian has been revised!" Liu Jian's voice suppressed excitement.

He was holding a book in both hands, Li Dongyang was also holding a book in his hand, and Xie Qian was also holding a book in his hand.

Yan Chengjin knows that the Ming Huidian, this book, can be called the first historical material of the Ming Dynasty.

It records the Ming Dynasty's canonical system.

Historically, Emperor Hongzhi gave each of them a python robe in order to reward the three cabinet members who revised this book.

The python robe is the highest grade of clothing in the gift, which shows the great merit.

Emperor Hongzhi flipped through the Ming Dynasty and was slightly moved: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

The hundred officials were immersed in joy.

But at this moment, an abrupt but very beautiful voice sounded slightly.

"This book may be able to be further revised."

Wu Kuan's smile froze, Yan Chengjin represents the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but what nonsense is this kid talking about!

The three elders of the cabinet are already the most knowledgeable people in the Ming Dynasty......

Li Dongyang tilted his head slightly, revealing some expectation: "How else to repair?" ”

"The Ming Dynasty canon, not limited to the legal system, should also need astronomy, calendar, culture, education, customs, etc., handed over to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for refinement, can be supplemented into a book." Yan Chengjin Road.

When it came to Zhengde, Jiajing, and Wanli dynasties, this book was rebuilt.

As it can be proven, it also has many loopholes.

Wu Kuan was frightened: "Your Majesty, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is not repaired, don't listen to Yan Chengjin's nonsense." ”

Who dares to say that Wencai is comparable to the three cabinet members?

Yan Chengjin can understand Wu Kuan, in Wu Kuan's opinion, the Ming Huidian is already extremely perfect, and there is no possibility of refinement.

"Then leave it to the Metropolitan Procuratorate." Emperor Hongzhi thought to himself, I want to see what you can cultivate.

Yan Chengjin ordered several imperial histories to bring back the Ming Huidian.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the military department and asked, "Can Datong send back news?" ”

"There's no news yet, the minister estimates that it should be soon!" Qin Hong estimated that Song Jing had arrived in Datong.
