There was silence in front of Hongwu Gate.

The holy decree sums up in a sentence, Emperor Yongsheng is a worker, so he is very busy, and the eldest son of the emperor is a talented, so from today on, he will be the crown prince, supervising the government and sharing the heavy responsibilities of the society.

As for why there was silence in front of Hongwu Gate.

This is because at the beginning of the year, after the royal family removed Zhu Yunxi's title as the grandson of Emperor Zhu Yunxi, although the court remained silent, there was speculation whether it was Zhu Biao who wanted to consider this eldest son again.

Only a small number of people will faintly guess when the incident happened at that time, and it is likely that they did so in order to directly canonize the crown prince in the future.

But most people still analyze and look at the problem from the perspective of conspiracy.

Therefore, today's will to canonize Zhu Yunxi as the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty surprised people.

Even in the current Ming Dynasty, the officials are in awe of Zhu Yunxi, who holds high the banner of innovation and takes the lead in restructuring, and is worried that he will act recklessly because of promoting innovation.

But inevitably, people believe that this royal son can indeed be regarded as the best candidate for the society in some aspects.

The mood of the officials is complicated.

It's probably the kind of mind that loves, hates, and fears.

Zuo Jing, who took over Sun Gou'er's errand in the inner court, had a calm face, but his eyes were full of smiles.

He glanced at the silent officials around him.

Then he rolled up the holy decree in his hand, stepped forward and bent over, slowly squatted down, and stretched out his hand to support Zhu Yunxi, who was still kneeling on the ground.

"Prince, the will is finished, and the slave and maid will help you up."

Zhu Yunxi smiled, his legs were forced, and Zuo Jing helped himself up.

And Zhu Gaochi, who was on the side, was surprised.

He knew very well that the second crown prince of the Ming Dynasty must be Zhu Yunxi himself. But he also didn't expect that this canonization would come so quickly.

And beforehand, this matter was not discussed in the court or even within the royal family.

With Zhu Yunxi got up.

Zhu Shangbing, who had been kneeling with him, was about to get up, but suddenly he only felt that his body was sinking, one was unstable, his hands were heavily propped on the ground, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks.

I saw that Zhu Gaochi was probably because his legs and feet were inflexible, so he pressed his palm on Zhu Shangbing's shoulder and supported the other party to stand up.

Zhu Shangbing glared at Zhu Gaochi with angry eyes, and only got up after half a sound.

This head.

Zuo Jing was already standing in front of Zhu Yunxi with a courteous face, bowing and bending.

"Prince, Your Majesty has said it, and I'll talk about it later. Although the will has been made, there are still some days before the Zongren Mansion and the Ministry of Rites can be prepared, and the prince is only busy with his own affairs these days. ”

This surprised Zhu Yunxi a little.

He stepped forward and said in a low voice, "What did Father and Grandpa do in the palace today?" ”

This kind of snooping on the palace, the emperor and the emperor, even if he is the crown prince, he should not ask about it.

However, now it's the Ming Dynasty.

Instead of the former Han, the former Tang, and the former Song.

Zuo Jing said with a smile: "The Emperor Taishang and His Majesty made an appointment today and went to the main hall early in the morning. I heard that His Royal Highness King Tang was rewarded by Mr. Fang in class today, and the Emperor Taishang was very happy. ”

Tang Wang is the little twenty-three Zhu Huan.

He was canonized as the king of Tang in the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu, but when he was still young, he stayed in Beijing and enrolled in the main hall.

In recent years, with the peace of the world and the prosperity of the country, the royal family's training and requirements for internal children have also changed.

Before these princes reached adulthood, it was unlikely that they would go to the fiefdom to become vassals.

Even if he went to the feudal domain a few years ago, according to the plan within the imperial family, it is very likely that he will return to Kyoto one after another in the future.

It is unlikely that the imperial court will continue the national policy formulated at the beginning of the country to guard the place and guard the border with the royal prince.

This national policy, compared with the current environment and the beginning of the country, is already a little impractical.

With the exploration and development of the New World, Zhu Yunwen's achievements in the New World, the royal family already has a plan to send some adult royal children to more distant places to expand the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that now it's only a concept, and how it should be implemented depends on how the royal family will arrange it in the future.

However, Zhu Yunxi raised his eyebrows at the moment: "Grandpa and Father went to the main hall this morning?" ”

The left nodded and said: "After the court meeting, His Majesty first went to the Heart Cultivation Palace, had a cold meal with the Emperor Taishang, and then went to the main hall, and the time was exactly when the first class of the main hall ended in the morning." ”

Now that the weather is hot, the ice food in the palace is no longer limited to ice cream.

Zhu Yunxi nodded, indicating that he understood.

Zhu Gaochi asked on the side: "Why did Uncle Tang get Mr. Fang's extra points today?" ”

That little Uncle Tang Wang, if he can not be deducted points in the main hall, it is a good thing.

Unexpectedly, he can still get Fang Xiaoru's extra points, this is really a knife pulling his ass, it is an eye-opener!

Zuo Jing's face did not change, and he replied with a smile: "Today, Mr. Fang seems to be talking about the content of the four expeditions and four discussions in class, and then asked me what words to refer to when the court is about to send troops to the Western Regions." His Royal Highness the King of Tang was the first to raise his hand, saying that he should ask for a reference to the west.

Later, the prince of Jin replied that in terms of the purpose of our dynasty in the Western Regions and how to govern it in the future, it makes sense to go west or go west.

Later, Mr. Fang felt that Tang Wang had been very obedient and active in class recently, so he awarded five points. ”

Only then did Zhu Gaochi understand how his little twenty-third uncle, who went to heaven and earth and made the head of the palace turn over from time to time, got extra points.

Zhu Yunxi smiled, but his mind was a little heavier: "So, this will brought by Zuo Daban was issued by the emperor's grandfather and father after the main hall?" ”

The left spot nodded.

Zhu Yunxi glanced at the surrounding officials who had not dispersed, probably waiting for the compliments, he said to Zuo Jing: "Today there is Lao Zuo's companion, when the Xicheng project opens in a few days, I will ask someone to send a few tickets over, and Zuo's companion can go over with a ticket to rest or have any relatives at home." ”

The Qixi Festival is the time for the opening of the Xicheng project.

Admission tickets are also prepared early, and you can play a lot of projects with tickets, and you can also receive chilled plum soup, ice cream, snacks and the like for free.

It's not much, but it's somewhere.

As for Zuo Jing, as the new chief manager of the twenty-four yamen of the inner court, there will naturally be no shortage of these.

But this was given by Zhu Yunxi, the new crown prince, and the heart is the most important thing.

Zuo Jing also knew that Zhu Yunxi probably had to have something else to do at this time.

He bowed down with a smile on his face and said, "Thank you for the prince's reward, when Xicheng opens, the slave and maid will definitely go to join in the fun." ”

As the only thing that Zhu Yunxi is doing in person now, the Xicheng project has attracted much attention from the beginning.

People have witnessed countless times that many novel things were born from Zhu Yunxi's hands.

The Ming Dynasty has begun to discuss how to send troops to the Western Regions, in fact, it can be said that most of the credit comes from Zhu Yunxi.

The Xicheng project, what kind of impact will it bring to Yingtiancheng, and how it will bring a new change to Daming, people have been looking forward to it for a long time.

Zhu Yunxi looked at Zuo Jing and led people to hide in Hongwu Gate.

He withdrew his gaze and sighed softly.

"The old man and the father have probably decided, this time I want to personally lead the army and send troops to the Western Regions."

Zhu Gaochi's face was solemn, not knowing what he was thinking.

On the contrary, Zhu Shangbing clenched his fists and snorted.

"This time, Brother Xi can't leave me behind! Let me be a pioneer! ”

The two of them on the side ignored Zhu Shangbing's preference for eager to rush into battle and kill the enemy.

After Zhu Gaochi was half-resounding, he spoke: "Our Royal Highness the Crown Prince, where are you going now?" ”

Zhu Yunxi looked sideways at Xiaopang: "Your tax office is not busy?" According to the time, shouldn't the preparations for the summer harvest have begun recently? ”

For Chubby to skip work from time to time, Zhu Yunxi expressed his dissatisfaction.

He eats ashes on the Xicheng construction site all day long, why can this kid be idle all day long.

Zhu Gaochi was not in a hurry, and said quite leisurely: "It's just the way of the emperor." ”

After finishing speaking, his eyes were still staring at Zhu Yunxi with deep meaning.

Zhu Yunxi rolled his eyes: "I said this?" ”

Zhu Gaochi pouted: "Now are you going to the Ministry of Industry or the prison over?" According to your temperament, since you know that you are going to lead the expedition to the Western Regions this time, you must still pay attention to the principle that if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. ”

was told by this kid one after another.

Zhu Yunxi roared with slight annoyance: "You know! It's all over for you! Should I change my title in the future? Let you understand the king! ”

Zhu Gaochi moved his mouth.

"Are you sure you're not scolding me?"

……

will be used as a supervisor, an experimental plant outside the city.

After all, Zhu Yunxi took them here as Zhu Gaochi said.

At the beginning, the imperial court wanted to completely abolish the Tusi system in the southwest, and he, as the grandson of the emperor, led the troops to the southwest, and he was the first to be the supervisor, and the latest mortars created at that time were used on the battlefield for the first time.

The effect is naturally significant.

The terrain of the southwest mountains that originally plagued the Ming army, those Tusi who used to be able to hide in the mountains with the help of high mountains and valleys, are now in front of mortars, there is no way to hide, there is nowhere to hide, there is nowhere to hide.

The reason why the southwest was able to end the elimination of the Tusi system so quickly was largely because of the emergence of new mortars.

What is the war fought?

It is the comprehensive national strength of a country.

More advanced training mode, more advanced military equipment, and more perfect logistics and supply.

"The Western Regions are different from the southwest, mortars can achieve remarkable results in the southwest and obtain huge benefits, but if they are changed to the vast Gobi in the Western Regions, they may not have the same effect."

Will be imprisoned in the experimental factory area outside the city, Zhu Yunxi explained softly.

Zhu Gaochi asked curiously on the side: "So this time, there is something new for the prisoner?" ”

Zhu Yunxi shook his head, so that Zhu Gaochi, who was still full of curiosity, couldn't help but show a disappointed look.

He just smiled, but didn't say anything.

Even if he made countless settings for the general as a prisoner, it would be impossible for the general to come up with something new from time to time.

The development of industrial science and technology will take time to accumulate in the future.

Just like now.

The firearm used by Daming has only been improved in terms of barrel strength and firing method.

More intensity, faster shots.

But if you want to transform directly from a firearm to an automatic rifle, even if it is a bolt-action rifle, there is a lot of accumulation of science and technology in between.

If only it could be like that.

Zhu Yunxi, on the contrary, hoped to get a six-barreled machine gun first.

With the current resource integration of the Ming Dynasty, as long as there are more than 1,000 machine guns lined up on the battlefield in the Western Regions, how many enemies there are on the opposite side, just pull the trigger and not let go.

But the reality is that the current industrial accumulation of the Ming Dynasty is still primitive and preliminary.

However, even if no new weapons appear, improving on the basis of the original is the focus of the work of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Supervision.

Zhang Ergong, who stepped down as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is now more and more energetic.

No longer involved in cumbersome ministry affairs, Zhang Ergong seems to be rejuvenated.

I listened to some tabloids in Beijing who plagiarized the newspapers of the newspaper bureau.

Zhang Ergong, the former secretary of the Ministry of Works, is now at home, and he can always show his majesty at night.

Zhang Ergong was with Zhu Yunxi and a few people at this moment, walking in front of the rows of artillery and firecrackers.

"Now that I am in charge of the prison, I have been reclassified into all firearms."

"In terms of artillery, there are now three types of land light, medium and heavy artillery, all of which are manufactured by new technology. There are more types of guns, and there are no less than fifteen kinds of guns, and now the three types of guns are all equipped with equipment in the army, and there are eleven kinds of guns in the army, and four are still being tested in the rain.

The firearms used by the navy are mainly light artillery and heavy artillery, which are different from the land version, and add sea stability decoration to supplement the shooting accuracy. There are two types of naval firearms, the long-range firearms used on ships and the rapid-fire firearms used for landing. ”

The huge open-air warehouse, countless firearms with a metallic luster, lined up, densely packed.

Zhu Shangbing stood in front of the heavy artillery of the land, and he couldn't move his feet.

Heavy artillery weighing 3,000 kilograms (the largest artillery in the entire Ming Dynasty was no more than two tons), a single shell can blast a city gate open. And most of these are now deployed on important passes and city defenses.

Zhang Ergong led Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi to a row of light artillery.

"The latest wheeled horse-drawn artillery, with an overall weight of only 500 kilograms, can be pulled by a group of pack horses when fully loaded. If the road is rough, it can be transported by four pack horses, or by the officers and soldiers of a small flag team.

This time, the imperial court was about to send troops to the Western Regions, and the ministers and generals thought that the army should be equipped with this batch of artillery in large quantities, which was the most suitable for the terrain and the enemy army facing the Western Regions. ”

Zhu Gaochi listened to Zhang Ergong's introduction with great interest.

Zhu Yunxi had already walked to the introduction placed next to this artillery.

According to the classification of the superintendent, this type of artillery should be between the land version of the light gun and the medium gun.

The weight of 500 kg, the classification of light artillery under 300 kg, the classification of medium artillery between 1,000 kg and 2,000 kg.

Light artillery is now mostly used in the army for large-scale fire coverage.

Medium artillery, on the other hand, was used for attacking fortifications and attacking with large firepower.

This 500-kilogram horse-drawn gun is more focused on mobility and balance of firepower.

Zhu Yunxi stretched out his hand and patted on the rising muzzle of the cannon, and looked at Zhang Ergong.

"A thousand cannons, can you do it?"
