Since Emperor Qianqing ascended the throne, this was the first time that the ministers were hung on the main hall and left in anger.

Fortunately, Zhang Cunhai threw down the sentence "retreat from the dynasty" when he left, otherwise, everyone in the hall did not know whether to disperse the dynasty or stay where they were, waiting for the emperor's grace and permission for them to leave.

Han Yanhui and the other four ministers retreated, each taking out the article he had written before and looking forward to the future of the machine age, thinking that the emperor had just reprimanded them for being inferior to the hairy boys, it was very difficult to ride a tiger.

No matter the depth or breadth of their articles, they can't compare with what King Yu and Jiang Yifan said. But it's too hard to get them to add new content.

It's not that they don't want to be attentive, or they don't agree with the emperor's ideas and slack off. It's these things...... It's really not their forte.

The four of them pondered for a long time, and finally Han Yan came up with the idea. Just what they wrote before, what His Royal Highness King Yu and Jiang Yifan said are all amazing words, and they are not over if they don't scare people to death. These old ministers have always sought stability, and it is reasonable that they can't think of such a bizarre thing.

Liu Chengzhi listened to Han Yanhui's words, nodded his head again and again in agreement, and the heavy feeling in his heart was a little relaxed.

The emperor can walk away, but these ministers can't fight with the emperor, not to mention that the emperor only left the hall after reprimanding them. The matter discussed in the court has not yet been concluded, so he must always ask the emperor an idea and tell him how to conclude the matter of the court.

The four of them put their sleeves on their sleeves and went to the imperial study to ask to see the emperor.

When the emperor announced the audience of the four, the expression on his face was no different from the past. It's just that after the four of them visited, the emperor did not give the four old ministers a seat as usual.

The four of them presented the notes they had written a year ago.

The emperor actually picked up the strip and read it carefully one by one. Then, he put Tiao Chen aside with an expressionless face and said lightly: "I don't often come into contact with specific practices, but it's good to be able to write like this." ”

As the emperor spoke, he glanced at Liu Chengzhi intentionally or unintentionally.

Liu Chengzhi struck a hard blow in his heart, the other three elders can be said to be infrequent contact with practice, he, who is in charge of the Ministry of Industry, is now also the minister of the Ministry of Industry, if he is not familiar with it, it is unreasonable.

The emperor moved his finger, Zhang Cunhai immediately beckoned, and a eunuch stepped forward, knelt beside the seat in a corner, and spread out his pen and ink.

Han Yanhui and the other four immediately held their breath and condensed, the Holy Lord was going to order things. The saint is in a bad mood, so he won't say it a second time, but they're fine.

Although there was a lot of arguing in the court, and no result was discussed in the end, the emperor was very resolute in his orders, and he didn't intend to discuss it with anyone at all.

"First, let Honglu Temple collect all kinds of information about foreign lands, regardless of geographical distance, the more detailed the better."

Han Yanhui and the others hurriedly responded "yes". Collecting information from extraterritorial places, the emperor was touched by Jiang Yifan's words, and he wanted to know himself and his opponent, right?

Liu Chengzhi and Wei Xin had mixed feelings. As important ministers in charge of state affairs, they certainly know that this is a good thing. But this matter was mentioned by Jiang Yifan, and it involved the promotion of what kind of machine and industry, which was uncomfortable.

…… Alas, it's hard to put into words.

The eunuch in the corner of the pen was swift, recording the emperor's orders and Han Yanhui's responses one by one.

The emperor did not seem to have even a draft, and after a brief pause, he continued: "Second, the coastal and border yamen, where there are outsiders, the yamen must have a detailed record of where the foreigners came from and where they passed.

If more local folk customs can be provided, preferential tax treatment can be given. The yamen organizes and archives the collected information, and reports it to Honglu Temple for screening and compilation once a quarter. ”

"Third, let the officials of the Ministry of Industry contact the Qijia Machinery Workshop as soon as possible, buy the machine blower technology, and manufacture it by the workshop under the Ministry of Industry."

Han Yanhui's face froze, this matter ...... The court meeting just now did not reach a result, so could it be forcibly arranged?

The emperor glanced at him and said, "Just arrange it like this, if there is an omission or resistance in any place, report to me here, and I will deal with it." ”

Forehead...... Report it, the emperor will deal with it? With this sentence here, who would dare to stop it on the bright side? How dare their cabinet ministers say that they can't deal with it?

But, Holy Lord, you have maintained your reputation for more than 20 years, are you going to ask for it?

If you do this, you will probably be privately criticized by people as being arbitrary.

"Fourth, the notice will be made as a supervisor, and the first craftsman rating will be carried out in accordance with the original craftsman rating system. Since then, the imperial court has passed the craftsman rating every three years. The general will be the supervisor and the officials of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites will supervise the whole process. ”

"Fifth, according to the structure of the steam engine, the craftsmen of the Ministry of Engineering made a few more models to drive the blades to rotate. Put this model in the Guozijian, so that the students also know that there is one more powerful instrument in the world. ”

Of the items assigned by the emperor, except for the first two, the last three are not very easy to handle.

Especially the last one. The students of Guozijian have always been above the top, how can they put craftsman things in their eyes? If you see the steam engine running and say something unpleasant, will it cause trouble?

Han Yan pondered and said, "Your Majesty, can this fifth article be suspended?" When the smelting level has been greatly improved, wouldn't it be more convincing to preach the mechanical structure to the students? ”

The emperor could probably guess what Han Yan was jealous of, his face was cold, and he said, "These days of pride should also know and know, if you can't make the people happy and rich, what is the purpose of reading so many books?" ”

Without even much explanation, the emperor waved his hand and sent the people away.

The four ministers retreated, and Zhang Cunhai showed the secretary of the eunuch in the corner to the emperor. The emperor nodded, and then put the secretary aside.

The emperor no longer bothered with anything else, and picked up the piece sent in today for daily review, but there was no other order.

Zhang Cunhai watched from the sidelines, itching. During the court discussion, he saw it clearly, all the adults were noisy, although King Yu and Lord Jiang were reasonable, but they were not able to completely convince the public.

In this situation, the emperor abandoned the doubts of the ministers and vigorously promoted the application of blowers and the rating of craftsmen, but he was afraid that the officials would not be convinced and criticized the emperor's move.

After a while, Zhang Cunhai tried to remind: "Your Majesty, do you want to invite Commander Li to come here?" The emperor didn't raise his head, and while replying to the fold, he said, "Don't worry, let's see the situation first." Maybe you don't need to be forceful. ”

Zhang Cunhai was stunned, not understanding what the emperor meant. But he was a minion, and he reminded the emperor of his worries, and he did his duty. As for the rest, as long as the emperor doesn't say it, he doesn't have so much curiosity.

The Emperor intends to see how Jinrong will respond to this. I want to talk about "Women's Beauty" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
