Zhu Youzhu was stunned when he heard Zhu Houzhao's request, and then asked, "What do you want Yang Peng to do?" ”

"What else can you do, of course, it's to take the blame!" Zhu Houzhao secretly said in his heart, of course, this kind of thought can only be thought about in his heart, and it can never be said. Glancing at his father, Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "There are some things that are inconvenient for the ministers to do, so it is appropriate to let Yang Peng go." ”

Glaring at his son, Zhu Youzhu didn't know what his son meant, this was obviously to let Yang Peng go to the thunder.

Since the beginning of the matter of Yanzheng, Zhu Youzhu has discovered that no matter what his son does, he likes to find someone, and to put it bluntly, he is looking for someone to stand up to when something happens. Whether it is Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning, or Jin Yiwei, they all command Mu Bin, you must know that Mu Bin is still thinking about it behind closed doors at home!

Obviously, this time the son looked at Yang Peng from the Shangdong Factory again, but Zhu Youzhu didn't think it was inappropriate, they took the blame for the prince, shouldn't this be?

"Pay attention to yourself, don't be overdone by then!" Zhu Youzhu instructed his son, but he agreed to his son's request.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, in fact, he asked Yang Peng to come over, and he naturally wanted to carry the blame, and at the same time, he also wanted to borrow the power of Dongchang, of course, more importantly, Zhu Houzhao wanted to pass on some news through Yang Peng, who did he pass it on? Of course, it's my own dad. Although his position as the crown prince is stable, Zhu Houzhao doesn't want his father to know what he's doing at any time.

After settling his father, Zhu Houzhao returned directly to Xianyang Palace, and Zhu Houzhao also understood that his father didn't really believe all his words.

For what he wants to do, Dad doesn't necessarily think it will work, but as a father, as an emperor, he hopes that his son, his heir, will have his own ideas, especially to be able to do things according to his own ideas, even if he fails, it doesn't matter, and he can still help take care of him when he is alive.

The rich of later generations basically raised their children like this, and the more extreme thing is to give money to their children and let them toss them themselves, even if they fail, it doesn't matter.

returned to Xianyang Palace, it was not early, Zhu Houzhao rested under Liu Jin's service, and he was going to prepare to leave the palace the next day.

What people didn't expect was that it actually snowed in the second half of the night, and when I went out in the morning, the snow didn't stop, although it didn't fall much, but it was still falling. Liu Jin walked in from outside, and his cousin was a little serious: "Your Highness, it's still snowing outside and it doesn't seem to stop, why don't you change the day?" ”

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said with a smile: "In this kind of weather, people are not the same as begging for a living, and this palace can't even get out?" Let people prepare, let's go as usual. ”

Liu Jin nodded, then bowed down and retreated to arrange the trip.

Putting on thick leather boots, putting on a leather coat on the outside, and putting on a hat, Zhu Houzhao nodded with satisfaction, the hat and the hat are one, and it looks more like a hoodie in later generations. After wearing the hat, there is a feeling that the person behind the scenes is hiding his figure. After leaving the palace and getting into the carriage, Zhu Houzhao quietly left the Forbidden City.

The first thing Zhu Houzhao wanted to go to was the War Bureau, although this was the Yamen of the Inner Government, but the War Bureau was very important to the whole country.

The War Bureau was set up in the Hongwu period, and was in charge of all kinds of armor and weapons needed for the emperor's various guards and brocade guards, as well as some firearms. Armor and armor were made every three years and were made by the Ministry of Works, while bows and crossbows were made "from time to time". At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the manufacture of firearms was mainly responsible for the internal military war bureau, and after orthodoxy, it was gradually divided by the ordnance bureau. There are more than 90 kinds of armor and weapons and more than 40 kinds of firearms made by the Military Bureau, and their firearms are mainly used by various border gates.

Compared with the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the War Bureau actually declined, and the War Bureau was originally prepared for the emperor's Son of Heaven army.

Their craftsmen are skillful and their manufacturing craftsmanship is exquisite, which can be said to ensure the equipment advantage of the Son of Heaven's army.

In the most critical part of firearms, the War Bureau manufactures, and the War Department is only responsible for preparing materials, because the War Bureau is the Yamen of the Inner Government and is under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor, which means that the firearms are in the hands of the emperor, and priority is given to equipping the Son of Heaven's army. It's just that during the orthodox years of Yingzong, the War Bureau was seized power, and the right to manufacture firearms was divided by the Ordnance Bureau.

Zhu Houzhao has been studying the pro-army and the Eighth Bureau these days, and Zhu Houzhao has found that the change of Tumubao is the key to the decline of the Ming Dynasty, which is really not to say.

A civil fort, coupled with a change to seize the door, the loss of imperial power is so serious that it is simply incomparable, no wonder Yingzong has to cut Yu Qian.

Zhu Houzhao also knew that the Ordnance Bureau was under the control of the Ministry of War, and the ordnance of the Ming Dynasty had dropped by more than one grade, whether it was materials or technology, all of them were regressive. Among them, corruption is rife, not to mention cutting corners, officials take private work and let craftsmen do it for them. The fire guns made are not up to standard, and they will explode at every turn.

The border troops would rather use the broadswords and spears made by the Armament Bureau of their own guards than the firecrackers made by the military department, and often they did not wait to kill the enemy, and the firecrackers blew up the bore and killed people first.

In the past, it was the Ministry of War that prepared materials, and the War Bureau was responsible for manufacturing, and the raw materials were unqualified, and the War Bureau would not sign for them, because the things manufactured were not good, and they would be chased. The eunuchs of the inner palace are managed, and if the emperor does not make them, no one will intercede. Forged firearms and weapons will not be collected if they are not qualified.

But now the Ministry of War supplies its own materials, forges it itself, and then delivers it by itself, and the weapons delivered by the Ministry of War, do you dare not accept it?

"From top to bottom, hold the power, I can be whatever I want!" Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but sigh.

In addition, the pro-army of the Son of Heaven was dismantled and abandoned, and the combat effectiveness of the border army and the pro-army all declined sharply, and the original historical Emperor Zhengde was reinvigorated, which may be able to make people see hope, but he died early, after Emperor Jiajing came to power, it seems that the power trick is playing very well, but the overall situation is not a little worse.

Emperor Zhengde's foundation was all abolished by him, and the result was that no one could beat the Japanese in the south and Mongolia in the north.

"If the War Bureau wants to revive, then it has to compete with the Ordnance Bureau of the Ministry of War, but the money bag is in the hands of the Ministry of Households, and they will not give the money to the War Bureau, and the supply is also a problem, and the lifeblood is all grabbed." Zhu Houzhao could only smile bitterly, under such circumstances, it was not easy to say that it was necessary to revive the military war situation.

While Zhu Houzhao was pondering this, the carriage stopped, and Liu Jin's voice said in Zhu Houzhao's ear: "Your Highness, it's here!" ”

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, Zhu Houzhao stepped off the carriage and walked down from the carriage, Zhu Houzhao came to the factory of the War Bureau, you must know that there are not a few craftsmen and their families under the jurisdiction of the Eighth Bureau. Looking around, Zhu Houzhao frowned, because he heard a noise coming from inside, and there was also a scolding sound, which seemed to be very complicated.

"What's going on inside?" Zhu Houzhao turned his head to Liu Jin and asked.

"Back to Your Highness, I have already asked the guard at the door, Zhang Yong is inside, as if he is reprimanding the steward." Liu Jin hurriedly replied.

Zhu Houzhao was stunned, Zhang Yong actually came here on such a snowy day, turned his head to look at Liu Jin, and asked casually: "You told him that the palace was coming?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, the slave doesn't dare to reveal His Highness's whereabouts!" Liu Jin hurriedly said with a sad face, and at the same time, Liu Jin also had a secret hatred in his heart, if he knew who leaked the news, he would have to kill her. I can't wait for all of them to make mistakes, how can I give them a tip-off.

Nodding slightly, Zhu Houzhao just asked casually, and he didn't believe that Liu Jin would report to Zhang Yong.

"Let's go in and have a look!" Zhu Houzhao didn't say anything more, and walked inside first.

Soon Zhu Houzhao arrived inside, getting closer and closer, his voice became clearer and clearer, and gradually he could hear the conversation there, as if he could still hear Zhang Yong's scolding. From time to time, there was the sound of crackling and slapping boards, and even screams. There are many people surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, and they can't see what is going on inside.

Liu Jin hurriedly led people to open the way, in fact, the method was very simple, shouting "The prince has arrived", and then the crowd naturally separated.

Zhang Yong didn't expect Zhu Houzhao to come, and when he heard the shouting, he hurriedly separated the crowd and squeezed out, and when the crowd dispersed, Zhang Yong had already run out of the outside.

After seeing Zhu Houzhao, Zhang Yong hurriedly ran over to salute, Zhu Houzhao interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and then asked, "What's going on?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, the slave and maid found that someone took private work!" Zhang Yong said with a little resentment: "The slaves are cleaning them up!" ”

As the saying goes, if something is good at the top, it will be very bad at the bottom, Zhu Houzhao likes to do things now, and after taking charge of the Eighth Bureau, it is even more important to the Eighth Bureau, and these little eunuchs around Zhu Houzhao are naturally extremely hardworking. Because only in this way can Zhu Houzhao be valued and favored, and the eunuchs are all imprinted into their bones.

The eunuchs around Zhu Houzhao also know that if they don't compete for favor at this time, it will be too late, once His Royal Highness ascends the throne, the most favored person at this time will naturally be His Majesty's most trusted and powerful.

Zhang Yong is in charge of the War Bureau, naturally he is doing his best, after taking over the War Bureau, the first thing Zhang Yong does is to develop his own eyeliner, whether it is a stove or a guard, Zhang Yong's eyeliner is all over the entire War Bureau, and he knows the slightest disturbance. Hearing that someone dared to take on private work, Zhang Yong was suddenly angry.

At this critical moment of competing for favor, someone dared to dismantle Lao Tzu's lift, so Zhang Yong couldn't even care about the snow, and killed him angrily.

At this moment, Zhang Yong is glad that he is decisive, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finds out and he does not deal with it, it will not be a competition for favor, but a disappointment of His Royal Highness the Prince, let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disappoint, how can there be good fruit to eat.
