Dongnuan Pavilion,

Emperor Hongzhi and the hundred officials had smiles on their faces, but Yan Chengjin was the only one, frowning, looking at the toe of his shoes, and fell into deep thought.

Liu Jin came back alive again?

Suddenly, the level of threat in his heart rose another level.

Wang Shouren and Liu Jin stood in the warm pavilion, waiting for Emperor Hongzhi to be rewarded.

Captured three large ships and exterminated the Japanese in the area of Songjiang Prefecture.

What's more, it also hit the island country.

It has created a precedent for the imperial court to suppress the Japanese, which is a fortunate event that His Majesty has never had since he ascended the throne.

Li Dongyang, Ma Wensheng and others had faint smiles on their faces.

To show the majesty of the Ming Dynasty on the sea, I am afraid that only the Three Treasures eunuchs went to the Western Ocean for a while.

Liu Jin is a eunuch, and he can't be knighted, Emperor Hongzhi squinted his eyes and smiled: "Liu Jin retrieved three big ships for me, this is a great achievement, and the monthly salary has risen to thirty-five stones." ”

Liu Jin opened his mouth slightly, the corners of his eyes lit up with excitement, and he choked up: "Slave Liu Jin, thank Your Majesty for your reward!" ”

Sixty-two stone moon smelters, for the three grades of officials.

The salaries of the ministers of the court and the central government were extremely low, and the salaries of the eunuchs were even lower than those of the ministers.

Only the chief eunuch of the twelve eunuchs can be compared to the three rank officials.

Liu Jin is only the chief eunuch of the East Palace, and it is a great favor to receive such a reward.

Li Dongyang and the others' faces moved slightly.

His Majesty is extremely generous in such a reward, and it is difficult to exterminate the Japanese in the southeast coast.

This encirclement and suppression dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese in the southeast and established the prestige of the Ming Navy.

Let the Chinese scrivener be recorded in the annals of history.

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes fell on Wang Shouren: "Wang Qing's family is already in the criminal department, so I will give you a unicorn suit, and the monthly salary will rise to thirty stones." ”

Wang Shouren bowed slightly and thanked His Majesty for his grace.

Xie Qian and others were a little embarrassed, and the fastest promotion in the DPRK was Yan Chengjin.

Secondly, it is Wang Shouren.

It is really impressive to go on three expeditions and repeatedly establish military exploits.

After the reward, there is accountability.

Zuo Zongyi knelt in the main hall, did not dare to raise his head, and shouted: "Minister Zuo Zongyi, there is an unforgivable sin!" ”

Without waiting for Emperor Hongzhi to speak, Qin Hong said: "The ministers are guilty of the same crime!" ”

Zuo Zongyi is the person he recommends, and he is the right attendant of the military department, so he will be implicated to some extent.

The smile on Emperor Hongzhi's face gradually dissipated, and he said: "If you have led the army to defeat the Japanese Kou, you can be regarded as making up for it." ”

Zuo Zongyi knelt on the ground, grateful, and it was a blessing to be able to keep the black gauze hat.

"The minister went to the island country this time and found that the island country was divided and the smoke of gunfire was everywhere.

The people who have no land and no land are comparable to the displaced people in Jingxiang, and when they are desperate, they enter the sea to become widows. ”

Emperor Hongzhi and Li Dongyang and others raised their eyebrows.

The Ming Dynasty imposed a sea ban, so they didn't know anything about the situation overseas.

Since Emperor Wen's Wanguo came to the dynasty, the island countries and Ryukyu never paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "I see, I don't know, it's been chaotic to this point." ”

Zuo Zongyi continued: "There are three more things that need to be reported to Your Majesty!" ”

In the main hall, the eyes of the princes were focused on Zuo Zongyi.

Seeing that he was serious, it seemed that something important had been announced, and Emperor Hongzhi was sitting up, pricking up his ears and saying, "Zuo Qing's family said it." ”

"I beg Your Majesty to transfer the monks and soldiers to the Jinshan Guard in Songjiang Mansion."

Zuo Zongyi had seen the force of the monks and soldiers.

It is not an exaggeration to describe it as brave and good at fighting, and it is a loss for the imperial court to be released into the mountains and forests.

Yan Chengjin thought for a while and said: "The minister thinks that it is impossible, if the monks and soldiers enter the Jinshan Guard and break the precepts, sooner or later they will become ordinary soldiers."

Only by returning to the mountains and forests and continuing to practice all year round can you go further.

When the imperial court needs to borrow monks and soldiers, it will be transferred again. ”

Wang Shouren said: "The minister seconded the proposal. ”

Emperor Hongzhi thought about it carefully, if he lost the discipline of the precepts, sooner or later he would be reduced to a soldier.

Isn't this exactly how Jingying is decadent to a group of farmers?

Li Dongyang thought for a long time before he said: "The minister thinks it's reasonable." ”

Liu Jian nodded, and returned to the temple, where the warrior monks would abide by the rules.

"According to what Li Qing's family said, the monks and soldiers were released to the temple, and the imperial court donated a sum of incense money." Emperor Hongzhi said.

Zuo Zongyi continued: "The second thing that the minister wants to report, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked Liu Jin to send 200,000 copies of comics and give them to the people of the island country. ”

Emperor Hongzhi's green muscles were exposed, his head was buzzing and painful, and 200,000 copies were printed, where did Zhu Houzhao get the silver, could it be that it was printed in the palace?

He turned his head slightly to look at Xiao Jing.

Xiao Jing hurriedly stepped forward: "Neither the celebrant nor the Guozijian are printed. ”

Emperor Hongzhi frowned and said, "Where was the crown prince printed, and how was it transported to Songjiang Mansion?" ”

Zhou Yu was so shocked that cold sweat flowed down his forehead, and he hurriedly raised his cuffs and wiped them.

There was a buzz in the hall.

The prince printed 200,000 copies of the book, and if he didn't alarm Jinyiwei, someone must have helped him.

This person is most likely Yan Chengjin.

As long as he is messing with the prince, and he likes to hide things.

Emperor Hongzhi also thought of it: "Yan Qing's family, where did the prince get the silver to seal the book?" ”

Yan Chengjin said: "His Royal Highness went to find the bookseller Wang Bu Sui. ”

Speaking of this, Emperor Hongzhi immediately understood.

With the prince's temperament, he must be coercing and tempting the bookseller, and the old face is a little unbearable, "Leave this matter to Jinyi Wei to investigate." ”

How could the princes not understand that His Majesty wants to make big things small.

Jinyiwei is His Majesty's pro-army, and he only obeys His Majesty's orders, and neither the cabinet nor the six ministries have the right to intervene.

Zuo Zongyi raised his voice and said, "This third place is the most bizarre place!" The five big ships in Liangxiang were built according to the warships of the Three Treasure Eunuchs who went to the West.

Thirty-seven zhang long and fifteen zhang wide! A horse boat that went to sea for the Three Treasure Eunuchs.

How could Liangxiang have the drawings of the shipbuilding of the Three Treasure Eunuchs? ”

In the classics, there is a record of the specifications and compilation of the hull of the ship on which the Three Treasure Eunuchs traveled when they went to the West.

Zuo Zongyi, as the right attendant of the military department, is naturally more familiar with it than the other six departments.

That is the horse ship of the Three Treasure Eunuchs going to the West.

It was bigger than the three large ships of the imperial court.

But the drawings have long been burned by Liu Daxia, where did the drawings come from in Liangxiang?

Emperor Hongzhi stared at Yan Chengjin: "Yan Qingjia, where did you get the drawings?" ”

"The drawings were drawn by the ministers, and the ship was built by Song Jing."

Yan Chengjin said without hesitation.

The ministers of the DPRK and China have always liked to speculate that if they learned that he took the initiative to ask Liu Daxia for a hydrological map.

You must think of opening the sea ban.

The opening of the sea ban involves the interests of many ministers of the DPRK and China, and it cannot be said that it is a stable hand.

Otherwise, there will be obstruction from many ministers.

Qin Hong was suspicious: "You have only been observing politics in the Ministry of Industry for a few days, how can you understand how to draw the structural diagram of a horse ship?" ”

"Please also ask Your Majesty to give you paper, ink and rulers."

Yan Chengjin painted it at night for this day, I don't know how many times.

Will it be ......?

You can really draw it!

Li Dongyang's face can no longer be described as surprised, and the more he speculates, the more frightened he becomes.

Liu Jian and the others looked at Yan Chengjin intently.

Wang Shouren shook his head, the old brother dared to agree, he must be able to draw it.

I saw Yan Chengjin pick up the pen and start scribbling on the paper.

In a matter of moments, the outline was drawn.

Zuo Zongyi and Qin Hong were dumbfounded, how could ordinary people draw the structure of the horse boat.

It must have been someone who knew the structure of a horse boat to draw it.

But Yan Chengjin is still a fledgling boy, and he has never even seen a horse boat.

Half an hour later,

Yan Chengjin presented the first structural drawing: "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, the minister will draw a second one?" ”

Drawings of horse boats, there are five large drawings in total.

This is just the first one.
