The mighty fleet went all the way north to Quanzhou.

In fact, Xu Jing missed the opportunity to dock at Jiaozhi, and he didn't know that Jiaozhi had become the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

When the mighty fleet arrived in Quanzhou, it hurriedly replenished its supplies, and immediately headed north.

On this ship, countless people were like arrows, and they just wanted to plug in their wings and return to Tianjin Port.

Quanzhou City Ship Division, already busy, after sending supplies to the fleet, the city ship envoy immediately Pegasus reported to the Inner Palace.

With the need to go to the Western Ocean, the responsibilities of the Municipal Shipping Division have begun to move closer to the Western Ocean, looking forward to it day and night, that is, the fleet is safe and sound.

The person who managed the city's shipping department was the eunuch Wang Bugan, who was already crazy with excitement, standing in the port, sending away the fleet, and was busy calling people to come and let people start the draft.

Wang Bugan came to his duty room, walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, he squinted, and said: "Start, I want to talk about Shou Ninghou first, the palace has come to ask Shou Ning Hou and that Zhou La several times, if they have an accident, we can't afford it." God is fortunate that this Shou Ninghou and Zhou La finally came back safely, if Zhou Niangniang and Zhang Niangniang learned, I don't know what happiness would become. Therefore, it is imperative to report on this matter. ”

The scribe bowed his head, and after a few strokes, he wrote a beginning first.

Wang Bugan was full of red light: "Also, tell the palace that the Golden Continent has been found, and our Daming sailor has found the huge island that hangs on the edge of the lonely sky, although we don't know the specific thing, and we can't ask in detail for a while, but this is great news, and God bless Daming." It's just that...... This island is very large, stretching thousands of miles long, and it will take time to find the 'divine seed'......"

Wang Bugan squinted: "This time the fleet has penetrated thousands of miles, going back and forth for more than two years, and now, returning safely, this matter of going to the West can be regarded as having eyebrows......

Wang Bu said nothing, and couldn't help but be a little envious of Xu Jing: "Ambassador Xu rode the wind and waves, to the extreme west, and his exploits are no less than the eunuchs of the Three Treasures, which is enviable." ”

He looked at the scribe: "Send out the report immediately, don't let people take the lead, we are in Quanzhou, grandma doesn't hurt, uncle doesn't love, just rely on this in front of Your Majesty, mix a familiar face." ”

"Yes."

………………

Yang Ya remembered that early in the morning, she was called out by Yang Biao, who was carrying the 'ring ruler'.

After that, hoes were distributed...... Digging coal.

Coal digging ......

Yang Ya and the others were in an uproar, clenching their fists angrily, wanting to argue with Yang Biao.

Yang Biao shouted loudly: "What to do, what to do, there are more people bullying me and fewer people, don't you know what I call it, my mother calls me Biaozi, I know why I call Biaozi?" ”

Syllable!

The ring ruler in his hand smashed the lamp stand in front of him into the air.

Yang Biao roared: "What are you looking at, what are you looking at, what are you looking at me doing?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is digging coal, what's the big deal about you! ”

No wonder Yang Biao was angry.

Here in Xishan, since the prince led people to reclaim and dig coal, the atmosphere has changed.

So many students, very noble outside, are not still led to do farm work, scholars, this Xishan people have seen a lot, gradually, establish a new kind of values, like the five grains are not divided, the four bodies are not diligent people, no matter who you are, are looked down upon, do you think you are the master and the father, people have brain disease, what kind of score are you here?

Yang Ya has a feeling that a talent meets a soldier.

You look at me, I look at you, they all want to ...... Someone can stand up, come forward, and take the risk of being smashed by Yang Biao's mace to the Tianling Gai, and fight with this Yang Biao reasonably.

But as a result, everyone is looking forward to such a big hero, but everyone is not a hero.

In the end, obediently, they obediently carried the pickaxe and went up the mountain.

The miners Zeng 13 led them, the anthracite in the West Mountain is an open-pit mine, but it is also convenient to mine, Zeng 13 is not curious about these 'Hanlin'.

After all, he had also led many scholars to mine coal at the beginning, and after giving an explanation, he waited coldly for Yang Ya and others to swing their hoes......

As soon as Yang Ya hoeed down, her mouth suddenly became numb and she wanted to die.

Suddenly, there was a ...... Like Su Wu's shepherd, Yang Ya's tears came out.

It's insulting.

…………

But at this time, an explosion appeared in the southwest corner of the Jingshi.

But this is within the confines of the inner city.

After an explosion, although the shock was not large, the sound shocked the entire Jingshi.

You know, that location, but Wang Gong Factory, Wang Gong Factory is located in the inner city of the arsenal, under the Bureau of Manufacturing, this place is only six or seven miles away from the Forbidden City.

Listen to this explosion.

The whole army department panicked.

What happened?

Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, chuckled in his heart, in the past few years, he has always felt that there is a kind of disaster that will happen to him, and sure enough, what ...... Say what, come what.

Ma Wensheng was taken aback, and hurriedly took the soldiers and others to Wang Gong's factory.

The scope of this explosion was actually not large, only one house, which caught fire due to the explosion, and Pi Liang, the eunuch of Wang Gong's factory, was already in command and hurriedly put out the fire.

After a while, a eunuch also came to the palace, and hurriedly came to ask what had happened.

Ma Wensheng was in a hurry, and several craftsmen who were injured by the explosion were carried out, but fortunately, no one's life was in danger, but it was a burn, so he was busy with treatment.

The personnel of the Ministry of Engineering stationed here, as well as the inspector of the Ministry of War's arsenal and the Inspector Department of the Ministry of War, hurriedly came to greet Ma Wensheng.

"What the hell is going on?" Marven said sharply.

His face was dark and furious.

Although it was a small accident, he was relieved, but there was no trivial matter at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and if there was movement, how could he explain to the emperor? Moreover, this is very easy to trigger the impeachment of the imperial historians, and people are worried that there is no material.

"Artillery...... Artillery...... Blown up! The deputy envoy said with a crying voice: "Ma Butang, the artillery has exploded." ”

"......" Ma Wensheng was speechless.

After a while, Pi Liang, the eunuch of the supervision factory, came angrily: "This is the relationship of your military department, I have said it a long time ago, there is a problem with the drawings of this artillery, only such a little iron is used, and the barrel is so narrow and long, isn't this looking for death?" Mabedo, this is a matter of drawings. ”

Pi Liang was also angry to death.

It seems that this kind of ordnance institution is a place that the palace, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Industry all value very much, so the palace sent Pi Liang to supervise, but who would have expected that such a thing happened, and his good days for Pi Liang would have come to an end.

Ma Wensheng Tie blushed, picked up the drawings, and when he saw it, he was also stunned.

Pi Liang said angrily: "What kind of drawings do you use in the military department, it's really ridiculous, this responsibility is in the military department, and it is also on this drawing, if it weren't for this drawing, how could such a thing happen, you go to the palace to ask for guilt." ”

Ma Wensheng glanced at Pi Liang meaningfully: "This is the drawing drawn by Fang Jifan, the commander of the horse. ”

"What......" Pi Liang's arrogance was immediately dispelled: "Master Horse...... Target? ”

Ma Wensheng said: "Since Gonggong Pi thinks that this is the responsibility of the drawings, then this official will play according to the facts, this is what you said, not what the old man said." ”

Pi Liang's face stiffened suddenly.

The anger gradually disappeared, and he reluctantly squeezed out a smile: "We may not mean this, after all, when such a vicious thing happens, no one can get rid of it, right?" ”

Ma Wensheng picked up the drawings and immediately began to ask the relevant personnel.

Only then did I know that the original problem was indeed on the drawings.

The craftsmen built a cannon according to the drawings.

I'm going to test the power of this cannon today.

Who knows, when the medicine was loaded, with a bang, the artillery exploded, sparks flew everywhere, and a house was burned, but fortunately, the people who tested the cannon were prepared, and they were all wounded, but no one died.

Ma Wensheng frowned, looked at Pi Liang and said, "Since it is really a drawing problem, then...... Indeed, the captain of the horse is undeniable, and this matter should be played according to the facts. ”

Pi Liang shook his head: "We don't know anything, this is what Ma Butang himself said." ”

Ma Wensheng was annoyed: "This is a big thing, Your Majesty ordered to build artillery, these artillery, how much food was spent, this is to be sent to the border town, for the soldiers, now there is a problem with this drawing, so much manpower and material resources have been wasted, the result is ...... But he created a thing that couldn't kill the enemy, but wanted to kill his own soldiers, how could he not know anything? Father-in-law Pi, to be a man, not only to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but also to talk about conscience, we are all serving the court, and other things can be sloppy, this matter, how to be sloppy? You don't dare to offend people now, then ...... It's okay, it's not the problem of the drawings, it's the problem of you, the eunuch of the factory. ”

"Let's ...... Let's ......" Pi Liang stammered: "Okay, according to the truth."

Immediately afterwards, the eunuchs from the palace hurried to the warm pavilion with drawings, as well as the oral statements of the eunuchs of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry, and the Supervision Factory.

Because of this shock, the monarchs and ministers in the entire warm pavilion frowned.

Although it is not a big thing, maybe after a few days, everyone forgets about it.

But after all, it was Wang Gongchang who had an accident, and the people in the palace could see the fire of Wang Gongchang, as well as the sound of explosion and vibration, but many people could feel it, who knows, there will be any rumors at that time.

When the eunuchs came, Emperor Hongzhi had a straight face.

The eunuch was busy with the proclamation.

Hearing that it was actually a problem with the drawings, Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Take the drawings." ”

Drawings were sent.

Emperor Hongzhi remembered very well that this drawing was presented by Fang Jifan, and out of the trust of the other party's successor, he immediately ordered the military department to supervise the construction, and the household department also allocated money and grain, but who knows...... According to the drawings, the cannon was not built, and it caused a small mess.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't understand the things on the drawing, so he handed over the drawing to Liu Jian and others to see.

Liu Jian naturally didn't understand it, and he didn't know what the problem was, so he didn't say anything and continued to circulate.

When it came to Li Dongyang's hands, Li Dongyang looked distressed: "Hey...... If Lao Chen remembers correctly, for this cannon, the household department allocated 70,000 taels of silver, because this cannon is different and needs a new mold, and a new kiln is specially built...... The 70,000 taels of silver are considered to be wasted. ”
