Chapter 50: The Lord is really naughty

Xiao Guizi got up at this time, rowing a boat, and told the story of Huang Fuying being taken away.

Although I don't know who took Huang Fuying, it doesn't matter.

Ji Jing didn't bother to think about it anymore.

As soon as the boat came ashore, Ji Jing called a carriage to return to the palace.

As for the situation at the scene, the guards in the shadows will take care of the aftermath.

Back in the palace, Ji Jing took a hot bath and had another meal.

It's already dark, so naturally I don't want to go out for a stroll anymore.

Anyway, it's only 100 mission points left, and you can get it when you go out tomorrow.

The next day, at three o'clock in the sun, Ji Jing got up lazily, and after eating breakfast, he quietly went out of the palace with Xiao Guizi.

By the time he returned, the quest point had reached its limit.

And the source of the 100 mission points comes from his wise decision last time.

That is, not to punish those gentlemen, this is not another gentleman who bumped into his gun, both pretending to be forced and taking the task point.

Refreshing!

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites knelt in front of Fan Zhongyan and cried loudly, begging Fan Zhongyan to save him.

After listening to the cry of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Fan Zhongyan knew what had happened.

The lord is so naughty!!

Fan Zhongyan, who already had experience in dealing with it, said directly: "Recently, the treasury has been empty, you have made some contributions to the imperial court, and you have to ask Your Majesty for the guilt." With Your Majesty's kindness, I should spare you once. ”

"Thank you Prime Minister for your advice, the lower officials are grateful!" The attendant of the Ministry of Rites thanked Dade for his kneeling.

With the departure of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Fan Zhongyan couldn't help but sigh that the lord is really a god!

This move does not punish, not only enriches the treasury, but also allows civil and military officials to restrain their own children.

And those gentlemen who have lost all their property at home, where do they dare to be arrogant, and they can't wait to clamp their tails and be people.

In case he really does evil again and is touched by the emperor, he can only drink the northwest wind in the future.

If severe punishment is directly used, although it can deter civil and military officials, it will cause endless troubles.

Once a family commits a crime, the first thing that may come to mind is not to accept punishment, but to try their best to escape punishment. Even a desperate move, treason is possible!

Or secretly carry out intrigues and tricks to frame innocent people.

And the imperial court also needs to spend manpower to deal with these things.

The final result was of little benefit to the civil and military officials and the imperial court.

But the lord's current 'no punishment' has perfectly solved the incident of the evil done by the sons of the gentlemen.

After all, no one will think that they have a lot of money.

In addition, after all, it is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, these gentlemen are usually evil, but they dare not blatantly kill people and set fires.

To put it simply, they are all minor crimes, and as far as triggering the law of the country, it should not affect their families.

The lord's approach showed the benevolence of the monarch, helped to unite the people, and solved the problem.

That's why Fan Zhongyan has such feelings.

In the palace, the palace of nourishing the heart.

Ji Jing looked at the drawings in his hand, frowning slightly.

Can anyone really design Da Zhou?

Ji Jing was holding a drawing of the 'Steam Engine Sea Ship Diagram' in his hand.

After the task point broke through the upper limit, the lottery was drawn to the 'Longli Dan', and the other one was the 'Steam Engine Sea Ship Diagram'.

Although the working principle of the 'steam engine sea ship' is explained in detail, everything is available such as component construction and assembly.

But in the world of the age of handicrafts, can a steam engine be made?

It's not that Ji Jing doubts, but that there are no industrial products at all in this era, and it is too difficult to build a steam sea ship from scratch.

"Zhou Yang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, begs to see Your Majesty!" There was a sound of notification coming in from outside the Heart Cultivation Palace.

"Xuan." Ji Jing said casually.

Regarding the intention of Zhou Yang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, he naturally knows what the so-called thing is!

"The criminal minister Zhou Yang knocks on Your Majesty! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

Zhou Yang knelt down and kowtowed, shouting.

"Let's be flat."

"Your Majesty, the guilty minister doesn't dare." Zhou Yang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, hurriedly said, "The minister is here to ask for sin." ”

"I know what you are talking about, and those who don't know are not guilty, and this matter will be revealed." Ji Jing glanced at Zhou Yang and said slowly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhou Yang was immediately overjoyed.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!!"

Although I feel sorry for the silver, it is nothing compared to His Majesty's kindness.

And it was his son who made the mistake, and His Majesty could let them go like this, so what complaints.

"Mingjun!"

Zhou Yang, who walked out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, glanced back, and swore in his heart that he must do his job well, cooperate with His Majesty, and create a prosperous state of etiquette!

"Xiao Guizi, you send someone to the Investigation Department and ask Cao Yu to come to the palace, I have something to look for him." Ji Jing explained to Xiao Guizi.

Ji Jing decided to give the 'Steam Engine Sea Ship Diagram' to Cao Yu and ask him to find someone to build it and try it.

If there is a steel sea ship, if there is a naval battle in the future, it is equivalent to having a weapon of war.

After a stick of incense, Cao Yu hurriedly walked into the Heart Cultivation Palace.

"Cao Yu greets the lord." Cao Yu knelt down on one knee and saluted.

"Get up, take a look at this."

Ji Jing handed over the 'steam engine sea ship diagram' to Xiao Guizi, who handed it over to Cao Yu.

At first glance, Cao Yu didn't know what it was.

But if you look closely, you know that this is a warship, but the way to build it is very strange, it is actually made of cold iron, and what kind of steam engine is used to power it.

After Cao Yu read it carefully, he asked suspiciously, "Lord, can this work?" Won't the iron sink when the water is launched? ”

It is common knowledge that iron sinks when it goes into the water, and almost everyone knows it.

There are no ships made of steel at all.

"As long as the design is reasonable, iron floats in the water." Ji Jing explained with a slight smile: "There is no problem with everything on the drawings, and the problem is whether it can be built." ”

Since the lord said that there was no problem, then there was no problem.

But if you really want to build it, it's really a big problem, the parts on the picture are basically not seen, and the shape is not easy to play.

"This kind of steamship is a weapon of naval warfare, and although there is no naval battle now, we also need to plan for a rainy day."

"The construction of the steamship is left to you, and the expenses are paid directly from the treasury."

"As for the time, I don't ask for it, one or two years, three or five years can be done in Chengdu."

Ji Jing looked at Cao Yu and said slowly, "If you encounter problems during the manufacturing process, come to me at any time." ”

"Minister, you must live up to the high expectations of your lord!" Cao Yu's eyes flashed with determination, and he solemnly promised.

"Well, in addition, shipbuilding must be kept secret, the drawings must be copied, and everyone is responsible for a part or a part." Ji Jing explained again.

This approach not only ensures that the drawings will not be leaked, but also has the expertise of the industry, making it easier to build steam ships.

"No!"

"Prepare separately and go to Dajin tomorrow."

"No!"

Looking at the departing Cao Yu, Ji Jing rubbed his temples.

Although he has no intention of becoming an emperor, he seems to have gone farther and farther on the road to the emperor......
