After eliminating the main force of the Western Xia army, Wu Ting led the army to recover and replace the fallen states.

And this, all of them are being carried out in an orderly manner.

At the same time, after the news of the annihilation of the Western Xia Corps spread, many people began to be uncalm for a while.

Lin'an, the imperial city!

When Zhao Yan saw the 800-mile expedited military intelligence report sent by Wu Ting, the pacification envoy of the West Road, Zhao Yan laughed excitedly at that time, and the depression accumulated for many days has now disappeared.

"The party has always been extremely arrogant, and now the battle of the loyal king can be regarded as relieving the depression of a hundred years for the imperial court......"

Zhao Yan has been reluctant to put it down while holding the border pass newspaper on the West Road, even if every word in it can already be memorized.

It was Meng Tong who came to deliver the good news, and then Meng Tong presented the two heads he brought, which were the heads of Ji Lai Siyi and Luo Wanming.

Zhao Yan waved his hand to signal that the head did not need to be looked at, and then said a meaningful word to the Manchu Dynasty civil and military: "Now that the national crisis is in place, I only believe in the loyal king, so I don't need to look at it!" ”

These words made the ministers look at each other, they were not only surprised that Ye Yu was able to achieve such a record in a short period of time, but also felt a little uneasy about His Majesty's attitude now.

In addition to the ministerial camp headed by Jiang Fu and Yue Lin, the current court is the Taizi party headed by Zeng Di and Li Mo.

And the former Taiwei Zhang said that since he went to Fuzhou to be humiliated, he has been bedridden and on the verge of a deadline, so Taizi Zhao Kaili felt that there were not enough people around him, so he transferred Zeng Di, who was far away in Fuzhou, back to the capital.

Zeng Di's task back then was to go to Fuzhou to cut out Ye Yu's wings, and now that Ye Yu has made a high-profile comeback and can be reused, it is useless to let Zeng Di stay in Fuzhou.

Zhao Kai transferred Zeng Di back to the capital because of these considerations!

"Your Majesty, it is really gratifying that His Royal Highness King Zhong can annihilate the main force of the party with such a thunderous momentum, which is enough to show that His Majesty is a meritocracy!" Zeng Di came out of the court and came to the front of the hall and praised.

Zhao Yan was very happy when he heard Zeng Di's words, so he looked at the privy envoy Jiang Fu: "Jiang Qing's family, this matter is up to you, I want the border soldiers to know this good news immediately!" ”

"Your Majesty is wise, such a good news will definitely boost morale and calm people's hearts!"

Seeing this, Zeng Di then played: "Your Majesty, since His Royal Highness King Zhong can develop such a powerful weapon as a grenade, it is only a matter of time before the external troubles are calmed down in the future. Now why not mass produce such a sharp weapon of war and equip it with the river defense fortress, so that the river defense fortifications are impregnable? ”

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Fu and Yue Lin each glanced at each other. They had already understood in their hearts that Zeng Di's previous praise for Ye Yu turned out to be the main intention here.

Zhao Yan listened, and also nodded slightly, after all, if the Jiangfang line is not stable enough, then the Jin soldiers will drive straight into Hangzhou Lin'an.

This is very important for the safety of the capital, if there is such a sharp weapon to equip the army, then even if you can't cross the Jiangbei, at least you can keep the Yangtze River safe.

"Father, the son thinks that what Zeng Shangshu said is reasonable, now is the moment when the war is tight, if the grenades mentioned by the four emperor brothers can be made in batches, then why am I afraid of the Jin soldiers coming to attack!"

Today's court meeting is extraordinary, Zhao Yan, who has delegated power, suddenly sat in the palace to deal with political affairs, so Zhao Kai, as the crown prince, can naturally only wait in the court.

"Well, what the prince said is reasonable......"

As soon as Zhao Yan's words came out, Yue Lin stood up and admonished: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen thinks that this matter should be considered in the long run, after all, this new type of firearm is unprecedented, and the complexity of it is not something that ordinary people can see, so it may not be easy to manufacture it in batches......

"Lord Yue's words are wrong, since His Royal Highness King Zhong was able to use a large number of grenades to destroy the iron horses of the party members, it means that this manufacturing technology has become mature, so as long as His Royal Highness King Zhong hands over this technology to the imperial court, it will be natural!"

Disputes arose again in the court, and Li Mo, the secretary of the ministry, came out to refute Yue Lin's explanation.

As soon as Li Mo's words fell, Zeng Di then chimed in: "Your Majesty, what Li Shangshu said is reasonable, as long as His Majesty sends a decree to Chengdu and His Royal Highness King Zhong sends a group of core craftsmen who manufacture grenades to Beijing, there will definitely be no difference, unless ......."

"Unless what?"

"Unless His Royal Highness Chung Wang is unwilling to share this peerless firearm, then it should be a different matter......"

“……”

After Zeng Di's last sentence was finished, the Manchu Dynasty was silent for a while, and such heart-wrenching words came out of Zeng Di's mouth, which was really vicious to the point of ulterior motives!

"陛xià......"

Jiang Fu was about to go forward to admonish, but was directly stopped by Zhao Yan: "Jiang Qing doesn't need to say any more, the so-called suspicious people don't need to be suspicious, since I appointed King Zhong as the privy deputy envoy to take charge of the military power, I will not be questioned because of this, this matter is ......"

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say!" Meng Tong, who didn't dare to speak much since he entered the Vertical Arch Hall, suddenly opened his mouth at this moment.

"Bold, you are a little general, you dare to rashly block the way of His Majesty's words!"

"It's really ...... the sky"

"陛xià......"

"That's it! Needless to say, when the imperial court is in crisis, why can't you be so impassioned? As soon as Zhao Yan looked at these ministers, he felt upset in his heart.

"Uh......"

The people who choked on a sentence were red-faced, and they all lowered their hands and kept silent.

"Meng Tong, you say!"

Meng Tong could see and hear the scenes clearly, and at this moment, he became more and more disgusted with the courtiers in his heart.

Officials above the court are generally five grades or above, and they are eligible to participate in the court meeting of the vertical arch hall.

Although Meng Tong is a five-rank official as a general judge, he is qualified to participate in the court meeting. However, the general judgment in the southwest border, and these Beijing officials in the capital, the official status is naturally inferior.

Once Meng Tong was dissatisfied with Ye Yu's transfer of him to Sichuan and Shu, after all, he was the head of a second-class jinshi, even if he couldn't be an official in the capital, he could also be a fat poor in several counties under the jurisdiction of the capital.

But he was transferred to the far southwest by Ye Yu, which made him depressed all the time. Because no one will be willing to give their own good future for anyone, even if the two are close friends.

However, after experiencing the battle of Chengdu and the ugly faces of the ministers seen today, Meng Tong was glad that he was transferred out of the capital back then, because instead of being polluted and tearing each other apart in this court, it was better to go deep into the bottom and do some practical things.

Meng Tong froze for a moment, and then said solemnly: "Your Majesty, in fact, what several adults said is reasonable!" The grenade was secretly developed by His Royal Highness King Chung when he was in Fuzhou, and it has been in the experimental stage all along, so I don't know how powerful it is, so I didn't report the matter to the imperial court......"

"Well, I see!"

"Now this technology has indeed matured, but it is not as simple as Zeng and Li think, and this firearm is not suitable for all sergeants!"

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”
