Chapter 81: Just Be a Loyal Dog

The first academician of the Academy of Engineering, Tianqi is ready to let Xu Guangqi serve.

Because before Xu Guangqi left office, the highest position had reached the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, which was the highest in seniority and official position among these people.

And he has high attainments in the fields of agriculture, science, and mathematics, so he serves as an academician, and others can't find anything wrong with him.

In addition, Tianqi is also ready to let him concurrently serve as a young academician of the Agronomic Bureau, because a suitable candidate has not yet been found for this position.

The young academician of the Firearms Bureau is served by Bi Maokang, and his previous experience is relatively rich, and he has served in Guangxi, Shaanxi, Shandong and other places.

In addition to managing the Firearms Bureau, he was also responsible for the musket because he was an expert in the field.

As for the artillery, it was naturally handed over to Sun Yuanhua, so Sun Yuanhua would assist Bi Maokang in his work in the Firearms Bureau.

The Machinery Bureau is none other than Wang Zheng, he is a master in this area, and no one has been found to have surpassed him in this regard.

The only drawback is that his previous official position was too low, only the seventh grade, while the young academician in charge of managing the Machinery Bureau was the third grade, and he made a leap too high.

It stands to reason that Xu Guangqi, Bi Maokang and Sun Yuanhua, who focus on research, should not be picky in this regard, but it is not excluded that some people are not convinced.

But Apocalypse decided to appoint him like this, and he wanted to tell everyone that as long as you have enough attainments in the field of technical research, you can soar to the sky without constraints.

Song Yingxing has no news yet, if he finds it, the Apocalypse will arrange him in the Agronomy Bureau under Xu Guangqi, and after his talents are brought into play, he can serve as a young academician of the Agronomy Bureau.

As for the Yamen of the Engineering Academy, Tianqi had already thought about it, so it was arranged in the north of Dongjiang Mixiang, an area to the east of the Yamen of the Tai Hospital, covering a wide area and not far from the imperial city.

Half a month later, Xu Guangqi, Bi Maokang and others also came to Beijing one after another, and entered the palace to be summoned by the apocalypse.

When Apocalypse told him about his vision for the engineering institute, they were all excited, and they all felt as if the engineering institute had been set up for themselves.

In the future, as long as you concentrate on research, you don't need to participate in the disputes in the court, and you can serve the Ming Dynasty, why not?

With a stroke of the pen, the Apocalypse asked the household department to squeeze out 500,000 taels to the newly established engineering institute, so that the engineering institute could complete the construction of various facilities as soon as possible and then carry out its work.

Then, Tianqi allocated the War Bureau, the Gunpowder Bureau, and the Anmin Factory (formerly known as the Wang Gong Factory, after the explosion of the Wang Gong Factory, in order to appease the people, it was relocated and renamed the Anmin Factory) to the Engineering Academy as a subsidiary organization, in order to concentrate the same resources in the hands of the Engineering Academy for better use.

Seeing that Banzai suddenly came out of an engineering institute, and the movement was not small, the civil and military officials also talked about it in private, but they didn't know what to say for a while, and no one stood up to openly oppose it.

Because above this court, it is still the eunuch party that is the most powerful.

But at this time, the eunuch party can be said to be more low-key and low-key, Wei Zhongxian's grounding period has passed for nearly half a month, and he still chooses to live in a simple place, and he doesn't go out easily unless necessary.

During this time, Tianqi issued many decrees and decrees, including the reappointment of several officials who had been impeached by the eunuchs, such as Xu Guangqi, Bi Maokang, and Sun Yuanhua.

Wei Zhongxian did not have any dissatisfaction, let alone try to make any moves, and strictly forbade the eunuchs to jump out and oppose it.

Because of the period of confinement, he figured out a lot of problems and knew how to correct his position.

He knew that with the death of his wife, Banzai probably would no longer have the feelings he had in the past, and in Banzai's eyes, he was a knife and a dog.

If you want to be a good knife that is still useful, you can only cut the enemy of Banzai, but not Banzai.

Otherwise, it will be put away, or it will be destroyed.

It's the same when a dog, just be a loyal lackey of Banzai, and bite anyone who wants to bite himself.

Because he understands that he doesn't have much capital to fight against Apocalypse, and Apocalypse wants his life now, it's just as easy as a finger.

Now, he is also sixty years old, and there is no problem in bullying and bullying the remnants of the Donglin Party, but if he wants to compete with the emperor, he has neither the courage nor the strength.

If you want to die well, the only way out has to be on Banzai's body, only Banzai's life is obeyed, and only by firmly holding Banzai will you not be regarded as an outcast.

In this way, it will be a few years, and a dozen or two decades, and it will be time to die, and this life will be worth it.

Therefore, not to mention Xu Guangqi and a few people, even if Banzai wants to reactivate the Donglin Party, Wei Zhongxian will not say anything more.

In order to show his loyalty and obedience, Wei Zhongxian even ordered the five biaos, led by Tian Ergeng, to go to all parts of the country to abolish the ancestral halls that had been built for themselves.

To be honest, for him who believes in this way, it is really like digging out his heart and liver and destroying the corner of the wall, which is very heart-wrenching.

And this move also made everyone, including the eunuch party, see that Chitose Ye was really frightened by the death of Mrs. Fengsheng, and he had mixed feelings for a while.

Since the most powerful eunuchs have no opinions, others naturally don't want to jump out to oppose Banzai at this time, otherwise, the career will definitely come to an end.

……

Wei Mansion, Wei Zhongxian is like an idle cloud and wild crane who doesn't ask about things outside the window, he doesn't know how to read, let alone write and paint, so he drinks tea quietly.

Suddenly, a rush of footsteps came from outside, and the figure of the housekeeper appeared, and after he saw Wei Zhongxian, he hurriedly said excitedly: "Master Chitose, someone has come to the palace, long live summons." ”

Hearing the words "Long Live Summons", Wei Zhongxian trembled, and said in shock: "Long live summoning our family?" Long live has finally summoned our family. ”

No wonder he was so excited, because since he was favored by the Apocalypse, he had never been snubbed by the Apocalypse for so long, and he hadn't seen the Apocalypse for a month.

He has been waiting for this news for a while, because only when Tianqi takes the initiative to summon it, it means that Tianqi still has him Wei Zhongxian in his heart.

Otherwise, if the time drags on for a long time, he Wei Zhongxian will only become more and more unsafe.

"Hurry up, prepare the car and drive ......"

In the Qianqing Palace, Tianqi sat on the dragon chair above, and asked in a majestic voice: "Wei Daban, what have you gained from being at home these days?" ”

Wei Zhongxian lay on the ground, and said in a sad voice: "Long live, the slave maid has been reflecting on it at home during this time, the slave maid is too carried away, and with the help of the power given by Banzai, she has done a lot of wrong things. ”

"Guy was born in the market, with some market atmosphere, and no culture, when facing the once high-ranking civil and military officials and magnates, it is inevitable that they will have a strong heart, and they want to prove that they are better than them, and they also use some dishonorable means."

"The slave and maid already know that they are wrong, the slave and maid are a dog and a loyal dog by the side of Banzai, and they can't affect the majesty of Banzai because of their own selfish interests, let alone the stability of the Ming Dynasty."

"In the future, no matter how big or small, the slaves and maids will ask for instructions, and they will not dare to hide it, let alone cross the line."

"The slave and maid are old, and there are few years to live, and for the rest of the days, the slave and maid only want to serve faithfully and live long."

Hearing this, Tianqi understood that after more than a month of reflection, Wei Zhongxian had figured out some of his thoughts.

Yes, this is exactly what he wants, you Wei Zhongxian just need to be a loyal dog.
