Yang Xiuqing didn't notice the expression on Fu Shanxiang's face, his mind was still full of all kinds of new artillery that he had seen at the shooting range in the afternoon.

The 75-mm mountain gun, which has a maximum firing range of more than 10 miles, weighs only more than 1,000 catties, and can be broken down into eight large pieces at any time to be transported by mules and horses, and there is no shield, which is particularly suitable for long-distance maneuvering and 75-mm load-carrying field guns used under complex terrain conditions. There is also the more powerful 105 mm caliber light howitzer, which can hit a small 20 miles away, but weighs less than 3,000 catties, and seven gunners can disassemble it into 11 parts in a short time, and can be reloaded into a complete howitzer in the time of tea. He was excited and tried it himself, and he was able to handle every individual part. He couldn't understand what Zheng Nan and Qi Nong had repeatedly and proudly introduced, what kind of water pressure gas type, spring station-and-retreat retractor, and so on, he just knew that no matter where these cannons were placed, no matter who they compared with, they would make the opponent chill.

Of course, after seeing this qiē, Yang Xiuqing would understand without anyone reminding him that if he wanted to make these things in large quantities, really equip them in the army, and finally give the Russian who didn't know the depth of the final profound education, what was needed was a lot of silver. The Ordnance Bureau's power plant was put into operation, and a new steel mill was started, although the treasury released a lot of silver from various places every year, and even Tianjing already had a stable annual income of more than one million taels on its own, but the territory was large, and the expenditure was equally huge, and the money in the left hand had just been collected, and the right hand had to spend it again. With a big family and a big business, he always has a feeling that he can't make ends meet.

From Lin Haifeng's many letters, he knew that the investment in Shanghai and the southeast was even greater, but fortunately, Lin Haifeng's internal affairs department had its own treasury, and he could still support himself for a while.

"Your Highness, I ...... I want to tell you something. Fu Shanxiang looked at Dongwang, who was soaking his feet comfortably, and was slightly closing his eyes as if thinking about something, and said softly.

"Ah...... Ah, Shanxiang, hehe, why are you still standing, sit, sit down. Yang Xiuqing opened her eyes and looked at her, and smiled, "Alas, I was thinking about something just now, and I forgot that you were here." ”

"I ......" Fu Shanxiang looked at Dongwang who was a little tired on his face, and his heart was sour, Dongwang was thinner and more tired than before. She sat down slowly, and what she wanted to say changed, "Your Highness, Hong Renji's budget has been submitted, so ...... It's right there with me. ”

"Oh, he should know what's so hard this time, right?" Yang Xiuqing smiled and sighed, beckoned the female officer on the side to refill some hot water into the footbasin.

"Yes, if it is completely in accordance with the plan of King An and King Ning, there will still be a vacancy in the money." Fu Shanxiang suddenly smiled as she spoke, she remembered what Hong Renji had said to her in the morning, "Hong Renji also said in the morning, he can't wait to be a robber and rob the money." ”

"Grab money? Haha......" Yang Xiuqing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Yes, it's time to find a place to grab some." ”

"Your Highness, you won't think of King An's Jianyì again, will you?"

Of course, Yang Xiuqing understood that Fu Shanxiang was referring to the dismissal plan of officials and female officials who had been shelved by himself. He glanced at Fu Shanxiang, "Hehe, is he the only one who understands what to do?" ”

Fu Shanxiang blushed, lowered his head, and fiddled with the placket of his robe with both hands.

"Why do I always think that guy is hiding something from me?" Yang Xiuqing looked at Fu Shanxiang, "You help me think about it, how much the treasury can spend, and he still doesn't know?" But with so many new factories being built, it can't be intentional to force me to comply, right? Also, how much money did they get from the foreigners, wouldn't it be just a few million silver oceans as he said? ”

"How could His Royal Highness King An hide it from you?" Fu Shanxiang lowered his head and muttered, "You also know that he has neither a formal palace nor a big expense, so even if he can hide it, what is the use?" She said this, but in her heart she couldn't help but admire the eyesight of the East King. According to the situation in Shanghai and other places related to the concession, according to King An's ferocious methods, she didn't believe that she only got so much money from foreigners, and in her calculations, King An's Ministry of Internal Affairs had at least more than 10 million taels of silver. Otherwise, where will the driving force for the rapid development of Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian come from? However, the news about the treasury of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is very tightly blocked, and it is completely in the hands of Wang Haiyang, and even Hou Qianfang does not know the details. Since King An did this, he must have his unspeakable suffering.

"Alas, look, I told you that guy like this, isn't it for nothing." Yang Xiuqing wiped her feet and sat cross-legged on the bed, "Tomorrow I want to see the Heavenly King, it's time to make a big move." As he spoke, he looked at Fu Shanxiang, and at this time he felt that Fu Shanxiang was a little strange today, as if he had something on his mind.

"Shanxiang, do you have something to say to me?"

"This ......" Fu Shanxiang raised his head and lowered it again.

"Just say it directly, do you have anything else to hide from me?" Yang Xiuqing looked at her lovingly, feeling a little uncomfortable. This Lin Haifeng! Since getting the news that Lin Haifeng married Liu Xianghe, Fu Shanxiang's girl has lost her previous smile.

"Your Highness, I ...... I want to get out of here. Fu Shanxiang's voice was pitiful.

"Leave?" Yang Xiuqing was stunned, "Where to go?" ”

"I want to go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs." Fu Shanxiang raised his head with a solemn expression, "Your Highness, aren't you going to send a minister to France, you have to think that Shanxiang is competent, and Shanxiang is willing to go." ”

Yang Xiuqing stared at Fu Shanxiang for a while, and lowered his head silently, "Shanxiang, do you regret coming to this Dongwang Mansion in the first place?" ”

"I didn't ...... Not really. Fu Shanxiang's eyes turned red, "Your Highness, Shanxiang can go from a weak woman to today's glory, this qiē is given by the Heavenly Dynasty and His Highness, Shanxiang has never regretted it!" ”

"Well, maybe I'm dragging you down." Yang Xiuqing gently pounded her thigh and looked at Fu Shanxiang, "What about people, sometimes it's really too dirty, in the eyes of some people, it's like I, the stone lion at the gate, in the Dongwang Mansion, there can be nothing clean anymore." Go for it, it's good for you. I've always treated you as a daughter, but others don't believe you. ”

"Your Highness, King An, he will definitely not be because of this, he ......" Fu Shanxiang lowered his head, and a teardrop fell on the placket of his robe.

"I know for what." Yang Xiuqing smiled helplessly, "But the world is big, and there are good men." Shanxiang, you can't always immerse yourself in him alone, it's not good. You still have a long way to go. ”

"Your Highness, after Shanxiang leaves, you must take good care of yourself, you are the hope of the Celestial Empire, don't break yourself."

"Don't worry, I won't be able to collapse." Yang Xiuqing patted her chest and smiled, "Look at me, aren't I still very strong?" However, the minister's affairs are still being discussed, so it will definitely be settled, and now there are many things, so you can help me take care of the food here for the time being. What do you think? ”

"Well, Your Highness will do everything possible to find a suitable person to replace me."

"Good. I'll do my best, well, this time I'm going to choose a man, old, preferably ugly, so as to save people from making irresponsible remarks and entanglement. Yang Xiuqing laughed.

"Your Highness......" Fu Shanxiang was amused by him, "Look what you are talking about?" ”

"Hehe, it's good to be happy, that's what you want to do in the future, be happy. Girls who are always sad will grow old quickly. Yang Xiuqing smiled, "Originally, I wanted to accept you as a righteous daughter, but think about it again, if this is the case, what gossip will others say." Forget it, affection is not just a matter on the surface, the key is still in the heart. Work hard and live well in the future. ”

"Why, so many officials, and there are knights who say that they will be cut?" As soon as Hong Xiuquan finished reading Yang Xiuqing's fold, his eyes straightened, "This ...... Isn't this going to move the foundation of the Celestial Empire? ”

Yang Xiuqing looked at the King of Heaven disapplausively, "The 60,000 idle officials, their mansions and families, all need the treasury to support, clothes to stretch out, food to open their mouths, no cuts, so what to raise?" ”
