After Li Zhouqiao finished telling the magnificent picture of the city of steam, he finalized some details and went back.

A few days later, Zhu Shun's seal also began.

First of all, the cabinet voted to draw up a document, and several Zaifu in the cabinet, most of whom were Donglin Party members, dragged on for several days and never gave a vote.

Xu Guangqi couldn't help but be a little anxious, he knew his body best, after a serious illness last year, his body and bones were not as good as day by day, and the limit was approaching.

The disciple Sun Yuanhua was just a squire, and Bi Maokang was not able to be transferred to Beijing in Nanzhili, and no one could carry the banner of the West French Party for the time being.

Zhu Shun, who has been knighted, can carry the banner of the West French people, and whether Zhu Shun is knighted or not is related to the life and death of the West French people.

The Donglin Party obviously understood the doorway, and dragged this matter until the Jurchens captured the city of Dalinghezhou.

As long as Dalinghezhou City is captured, Zhu Shun's merits will definitely drop greatly, and when the time comes, he can just be promoted to three levels in a row, and there is no need to be knighted.

At the critical moment, the prince of Fuwang helped Zhu Shun again.

The Europa people in the Age of Discovery were a bunch of scum, who dared to do anything as long as they had interests, and even their own scholars dared to sell them for a good price, not to mention the big fat and lucky prince in their eyes.

Wooden barrels were a strategic material in the Age of Discovery, and a large number of wooden barrels were needed for the storage of food, wine, gunpowder and lead bullets, and the storage of goods.

The thriving trade on the seas from east to west required an astronomical amount of barrels.

In Luoyang's vassal territory with the Qinling Mountains and the Taihang Mountains in the background, and a large forest farm, the prince built a large steam lumber factory near the Tongzhou cement factory, using steam machinery to produce a large number of cheap wooden barrels.

The tightness of the barrels had always been a problem for the countries of Europa, but it was easily solved in the hands of King Fu, who bought the ownership of the rubber plantation from the Helandong India Company in Java.

At first, the Helandong India Company despised this little prince of the Ming Dynasty and bought all the useless rubber plantations, when the prince of Fu opened a rubber factory in Java for the secondary processing of wooden barrels.

and the Landong India Company, a gold mine, but they sold it as wasteland.

The barrels produced by Fuwang Australia Company are not only cheap, but also completely solve the problem of tightness, and soon occupy the barrel trade in the South Seas, earning boatloads of silver.

The red-eyed Helan people did not dare to blatantly deal with Fuwang Australia, after all, there were sergeants recruited by Fuwang Shizi from Liangguang stationed in those rubber plantations.

The most elite of them was called the Guangxi Libing, and although there were only 1,000 men, they were outlaws who were not afraid of death, and they used a firearm that was more advanced than the Sur arquebus.

In several temptations, the Landong India Company suffered a big loss, so it didn't dare to deal with the prince of Fuwang blatantly, and in the shadow of the battle of Penghu ten years ago, it only dared to gather some pirates to attack the merchant ships of the prince of Fuwang.

The prince of Fu Wang had long been annoyed by the pirate ship like flies, and after he returned, he went to Wang Gongju to see if there were any new firearms.

After seeing the power of the armor-piercing projectile of the Dongfeng-3 rocket, he did not hesitate to order 3,000 pieces, and one piece was only 30 taels of silver, which was less than 100,000 taels, which was cheap.

If it weren't for Wang Gongju, who only dared to make it secretly, the production was limited, and the prince of Fu Wang would dare to buy 10,000 Dongfeng 3 rocket armor-piercing shells.

After seeing the improved Dongfeng rocket, the prince of Fuwang became more and more enthusiastic about Zhu Shun, the important weapon of the country.

When he walked out of Wang Gongju, the first thing he did was to go to the palace to find the imperial brother.

Chongzhen was reviewing the chapters, and he heard the second ancestor in the capital, the second ancestor Fu Wang Shizi, and walked into the Qianqing Palace in a hurry: "Brother Huang, the younger brother wants to sue someone." ”

King Fu's family has always been a problem hanging in Chongzhen's heart in the past, but now it has been easily solved by Zhu Shun, and it will no longer pose a threat to the throne, and he is in a good mood: "Who to sue." ”

The prince of King Fu sat on a red sandalwood official hat chair, which was usually reserved for the elderly Zaifu, but he was not polite.

What's more, you're welcome, the prince of Fuwang sat down and said, "Little Enzi, go and get a pot of tea for this son, just bring some refreshments by the way." ”

Wang Chengen, the dignified governor of Dongchang, was actually called Xiao Enzi, and it is estimated that the prince of Fu Wang dared to do this.

The corners of Dongchang Governor Wang Chengen's mouth twitched.

It's not because he calls him Little Enzi, I've long been used to this title, it's because I came to a dozen kinds of refreshments at random.

The emperor only has three or four dishes per meal, and you can open your mouth to have more than a dozen refreshments, which is really welcome.

Thinking that the queen mother had recently made a lot of refreshments with potato flour, Wang Chengen arranged for a little eunuch to bring the refreshments.

The prince of Fu Wang glanced at Wang Chengen strangely, when did he become so generous, and continued: "The younger brother wants to sue Zhu Shun, Zhu Shun is not a good person, he is simply a disaster. ”

"It's better for the emperor not to stay by his side, and the courtiers suggest that he be exiled."

Chongzhen put down the imperial pen in his hand and asked, "Where do you think it's good to exile Zhu Shun?" ”

King Fu said casually: "It's better to be exiled to Liangguang, Liangguang is far enough away that it shouldn't affect the imperial brother." ”

Exile to Liangguang?

Why don't you say exile to Luoyang.

Where would Chongzhen not know the thoughts of King Fu's son, he wished that Zhu Shun would be expelled, and it would be better if he was beheaded.

The prince of King Fu had already greeted his father, King Fu, only Zhu Shun committed a serious crime, so he hurried to Beijing to protect Zhu Shun, and then ate and drank well as a grandfather to worship in Luoyang, and launched the industrial revolution in Luoyang, a vassal territory.

The Ming Dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and King Fu is Chongzhen's uncle in law, even if he commits the most serious crime of rebellion among the ten major crimes, King Fu can protect Zhu Shun once.

Chongzhen didn't pay attention to the prince of Fuwang who was eating Haisai there, and turned his head and asked: "The ticket for the knighthood is proposed, whether it was transferred to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies." ”

Wang Chengen said truthfully: "No." ”

Chongzhen's face couldn't help but flash a trace of gloom, usually the Donglin Party can fight the same and different parties, but in the matter of knighthood, the Donglin Party is not allowed to have the slightest involvement.

Zhu Shun wanted to be knighted, why didn't Chongzhen want to find an excuse to knight Zhu Shun, only after the knighthood, Zhu Shun was completely tied to the Ming Dynasty, and both glory and loss were lost.

Chongzhen said expressionlessly: "This matter is supervised by you personally. ”

Wang Chengen immediately turned around and left the Qianqing Palace, the emperor meant that it must be done within a day.

When the prince of Fu heard that Zhu Shun was about to be knighted, the tea was suddenly tasteless, and he walked out of the Qianqing Palace unhappy.

Chongzhen looked at the unhappy Prince of Fu, but his mood was surprisingly good, and he wanted to rob Zhu Shun with me, but you were almost hot.

The prince of King Fu walked out of the Qianqing Palace, suddenly turned around, looked at this magnificent palace, and secretly swore an oath.

Sooner or later, one day, Zhu Shun will be the son of this world.
