The post house, Li Chuan and others are a little boring.

After trying the artillery, Emperor Chongzhen returned to the palace and never summoned him to inquire about Jin Shanwei.

When it was almost evening, Wang Chengen came, asked about Jin Shanwei's situation, and went back to the palace.

The Ming Dynasty's guard has long been rotten, some situations Emperor Chongzhen knows, some situations Emperor Chongzhen doesn't know, even political enemies don't dare to poke it out easily, because the involvement is too big, once it is poked out, I don't know how many people to offend.

Li Chuan has said everything that can be said about Jin Shanwei's situation, and he is not afraid that someone will tell the emperor if he can't say it.

There are some things that can't be said, even if someone is hostile to him, they don't dare to stab the emperor.

Without the emperor's instructions, Li Chuan could only wait patiently at the post house.

He wanted to go back to Jinshanwei, but Emperor Chongzhen didn't speak, and he couldn't leave!

Imperial Palace, East Warm Pavilion.

"Your Majesty!"

Liu Zunxian, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, entered the side hall and gave a salute to Emperor Chongzhen.

"Aiqing is exempt!"

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and asked directly: "Then the Western Artillery Ministry may be cast?" ”

Liu Zunxian's face was bitter, and he scolded Li Chuan countless times in his heart, and said: "Your Majesty, it is rare for the Western artillery to be well-forged, especially those specially made shells are really ingenious, and the Ministry of Industry really can't forge them. ”

Emperor Chongzhen said with a disappointed face: "Although the way of Taixi craftsmen is unique, but such a red cannon, how many Ming craftsmen can also forge it, why can't the artillery offered by Li Chuan, could it be that my Ming is not as good as that Taixi small state?" ”

Liu Zunxian was speechless, and with his stomach, he couldn't help but want to greet Li Chuan's family.

I got a toy car that could run last time, but until now, the craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry haven't figured out what electricity is, let alone imitate the kind of car that can run by themselves. Originally, because of this matter, he lost points in the eyes of His Majesty, and before he could remedy it, this guy made another Western artillery that could not be imitated, and Liu Zunxian really had the urge to scold his mother.

Isn't this special thing that makes this official sit on wax?

The next day, Li Chuan was about to go out for a walk, and Wang Chengen came again.

"How much can you get from Western artillery?"

Wang Chengen's words actually represent the will of Emperor Chongzhen.

Li Chuan said: "It's hard to say, we can't know until the next batch of goods from the Taixi people arrives." ”

Wang Chengen said: "If there are artillery and shells, they need to be transported to Beijing as soon as possible. ”

Li Chuan nodded: "Don't worry, if there is artillery and ammunition, the lower officials will transport it to Beijing as soon as possible." ”

Wang Chengen's words changed, and he said: "Lord Li is also considered to be a meritorious person for the country to get the Taixi artillery, but what reward do you want, our family can say a few words when you get to Your Majesty, why don't you say a few kind words for you?" ”

Li Chuan said lazily: "Don't want a reward, the lower officials have always had no ambitions, so they are not the material to be officials, and they are satisfied to be a Jinshanwei commander. ”

Wang Chengen was speechless for a while, and his face twitched.

Damn, is this talking about human language?

If the intrigue will lose their lives, wouldn't those officials in the DPRK have died long ago?

Li Chuan's tone changed, and he said: "It's okay to reward or something, but Xiaguan loves porcelain, and I heard that all the porcelain in the palace is a fine product, if my father-in-law can get a few sets of porcelain for Xiaguan, Xiaguan will be grateful." ”

Wang Chengen nodded: "This matter is easy!" ”

A few pieces of porcelain are indeed not difficult for the great eunuch.

Back in the palace, Wang Chengen reported Li Chuan's words to the emperor.

"It's not just unambitious, it's just presumptuous!"

Emperor Chongzhen was not lightly angry: "This Si regards the court as something, and intrigue will lose his life, as a courtier, he doesn't want to serve the country, he just wants to enjoy wealth and wealth, since he doesn't want to be an official, then I will exile it to Qiongzhou, which is far away from Beijing, and there is indeed no need to intrigue with others." ”

Wang Chengen smiled and said, "Your Majesty is angry, don't be angry." ”

Emperor Chongzhen was not really angry, otherwise Wang Chengen would not dare to persuade him, shook his head and said: "Since that bad guy wants the porcelain in the palace, the eldest companion will give him a few, and let him go back to Jinshanwei as soon as possible, don't hang around in the capital if you have nothing to do." ”

"Slave obeys!"

Wang Chengen received the order, and when he turned around, he hurried to do it.

After Li Chuan received the porcelain sent, he was immediately happy, Wang Chengen sent a lot of porcelain, there were two large boxes, there were dozens of pieces, all of which were tributes from the official kiln.

Those that can be sent to the palace as tribute are all high-quality products.

Li Chuan accepted all the orders, and as for the emperor driving him back to Jinshanwei, he had no opinion.

I didn't want to stay in Jingshi for a long time, so what else was there to say, so I took my family back to Jiangnan the next day.

Shanxi, Xuanfu.

General Chen Ping hurriedly entered the inner hall and saluted Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Xuanda: "The lower officials have seen the governor. ”

Lu Xiangsheng waved his hand and asked, "Have you found out?" ”

Chen Ping took out a roster and handed it over, saying, "Back to the Governor, I have found out that there are a total of 579 officials from more than 1,000 households who participated in the trafficking of goods in the Xuanfu and Datong armies, all of whom are on the roster. ”

Lu Xiangsheng opened his name and swept his eyes twice, with his composure, he couldn't help but look at it, and his face became more and more solemn.

Chen Ping had been standing at the bottom of the hall, patiently waiting for the decision of the Inspector.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at it for half an hour, then slowly put down the roster, and muttered for a long time before saying: "I don't want the situation to be more serious than the official expected, let's suspend the action, otherwise I am afraid that the announcement conference will be chaotic." ”

"The subordinate obeys!"

Chen Ping gave a salute and retreated.

Lu Xiangsheng thought about it, spread out his pen and ink and began to give the emperor a secret seal.

Jiangnan, Lijiazhuang.

Li Baoshan took a few family members and was growing rice in the field.

Since the young master left, the Zhuangzi has been idle, the grocery store has been closed early, in addition to persuading the cultivation and rent, there is really nothing to do, Li Baoshan still remembers the young master's advice, to care more about the life of the villagers, so every once in a while to personally go down to check the growth of rice, or go to see how the chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep raised by the villagers.

"Brother Baoshan, the young master is here."

As soon as he said a few words to He Laohan, Li Baoshan was about to leave, and a family Ding Fei also rushed over.

"What, the young master is back?"

Li Baoshan was stunned, and then he was overjoyed.

The Ding ran to the front and said breathlessly: "Exactly, the young master went to Jingshi, and when he came back from Jingshi, he came back by the way to see, he has arrived in Zhuangzi, you should go back quickly!" ”

"Let's go!"

Li Baoshan didn't say a word, he pulled his legs and ran back, his expression was excited.

Since the young master went to Songjiang, he hasn't seen the young master for half a year, and I heard that the young master has become a relative to Miss Su's family, and I don't know when I will have the opportunity to go to Jinshanwei to meet my wife.

"Hey, Brother Baoshan, wait for me."

The family who came to report the news couldn't take any breath, and hurriedly shouted and pulled his legs
