Chapter 40: Cao Huachun returns

Just when Lao Zhu was thinking about what Tiangong Kaiwu had written, the simulator in Lao Zhu's mind sounded again.

[Do you want to buy books?] The price is 100 analog points. 】

"Don't buy it."

Lao Zhu vetoed it without hesitation.

The so-called simulation points refer to the rewards given by Lao Zhu after reinvigorating the Ming Dynasty, for example, if Lao Zhu calms down the current catastrophe of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng and others, he will get simulation points.

With analog points, you can buy things, although Lao Zhu doesn't know what he can buy, he feels that these points will definitely be precious.

So don't say that he doesn't have a little bit now, even if he does, he won't use it to buy heavenly creations.

After all, Song Yingxing is still alive, and now he is an official in the Ming Dynasty, and Tiangong Kaiwu has long been printed and sold.

If he wants to open something from heaven, he can go directly and buy a copy, or call Song Yingxing directly and ask him to write a copy, so why waste points here.

Lao Zhu, who is used to living a budget-conscious life, will definitely not spend money on this.

He had already made a decision in his heart, and when he went back, he would summon Song Yingxing to the capital.

It just so happened that the Ministry of Engineering should be rectified, and when he came, he would be put in charge of the affairs of the Ordnance Bureau, but before that, the Ordnance Bureau and the Military War Bureau had to be put in order.

Thinking of this, Lao Zhu's face sank slightly.

It is obviously a place to build sharp weapons for the country, but it is full of flies and dogs, and these people in charge think about how to cheat money from the court every day.

The things made from the capital, because the raw materials are all provided by the imperial court, it stands to reason that the price should be cheaper.

As a result, the price of the same piece of equipment, from the Ministry of Industry and from the border town, was nearly three times worse.

In the case of the Ming Dynasty's successive wars, these people are so greedy for ink, and it is strange that the Ming Dynasty is not poor.

For Lao Zhu, he can hand over other places to others, don't worry about it for the time being, and see how they do.

But only the three places of Jingying, the Ordnance Bureau and the War Bureau, he attaches great importance to them.

Because this is the last foundation of his Ming Dynasty, as long as there are no problems here, then any problems are not a problem for him.

After waiting for the military battle, Lao Zhu said casually to Wang Chengen: "Wait for Wang Dehua to take Li Qinghong to the prison for trial, and see how much silver he has embezzled us over the years." ”

"As for the palm print eunuch of the War Bureau, you can pick someone to top first."

"By the way, try to pick someone who dares to kill and doesn't stretch out his hand."

When Lao Zhu said this, his tone was as relaxed as small talk, but it made Wang Chengen's heart tremble when he heard it.

Because behind these simple words, there are countless bloody storms and rains.

Li Qinghong was taken to the Imperial Prison, no matter what Wang Dehua's relationship with him was, he was a dead end.

Even if what Li Qinghong explained might involve Wang Dehua, before Li Qinghong finished explaining the matter, Wang Dehua did not dare to be alone with Li Qinghong, let alone let Li Qinghong die unexpectedly in advance.

Because Lao Zhu's means are too high, Lao Zhu doesn't seem to have done anything in the past few days, but how many people in Jinyiwei and Dongchang have become Lao Zhu's eyeliner in the open and secret, even Wang Chengen doesn't know.

And the most important thing is that Lao Zhu doesn't like to play dumb riddles, nor does he like to hide them.

If you have any problems, just put them on the bright side, for the sake of the unstable situation in the Ming Dynasty, and now is the time to employ people, as long as all the problems can be changed, Lao Zhu will pass them over.

But as a eunuch in the inner court, as the emperor's eyeliner, if you dare to have half a place to hide, then don't talk about it, wait for death.

Because of this, the inner court doesn't know how many heads have been lost in the past two days.

In this case, unless Wang Dehua wants to die, no matter what comes out of the trial, he has to report it honestly.

The reason why Lao Zhu asked Wang Chengen to find a successor when he was looking for someone who dared to kill meant that he wanted to directly clean up the military situation.

And the word purge, no matter what time it is, is bloody.

I don't know how many people will be involved in this military battle.

Wang Chengen, who was a little cold in his heart, looked at Lao Zhu at this time, and felt that since the dream of the great grandfather that day, the long live master had become unfathomable.

……

In the afternoon of the same day, a carriage slowly drove from outside the capital.

Around the carriage was followed a group of well-armed guards, and it was evident that the person sitting in the carriage was a man of great status.

When the carriage was outside the city gate, it stopped temporarily at the signal of the owner of the carriage.

As the curtain of the car was lifted, an old man dressed in a black robe with a white face and beard was revealed.

Although he was in a hurry, his clothes were almost wrinkled, and his neatly combed hair was meticulously wrapped under a scarf, and he was obviously very serious.

This person was originally retired in his hometown Tianjin, but he was urgently ordered by Lao Zhu to directly recall Cao Huachun.

Looking at the familiar city of Beijing in front of him, Cao Huachun's eyes were very complicated.

Although he was happy and excited about this edict, he also had some fear in his heart.

For them, the eunuchs, serving the emperor was a good job, but it was also a dangerous job.

People in the world often say that a companion is like a tiger, and this sentence is actually not wrong.

Living by the side of a person who holds the power of life and death all year round is much more terrifying than accompanying a tiger.

Cao Huachun has served Chongzhen for so many years, and originally thought that after returning to his hometown this time, he would never have the opportunity to return to the capital in this life, but he didn't expect that Long Live Lord actually summoned him back again, and he urgently summoned him to Beijing.

Although it is a good thing that Lord Banzai reactivates him, he has no bottom in his heart at all if he has the opportunity to return to his hometown in peace and stability like last time in the future.

"I hope our family can get out of the house this time."

Cao Huachun silently prayed for himself in his heart, then sat back in the carriage and said, "Keep walking." ”

After entering the capital, Cao Huachun did not delay at all, and went to the palace to meet Lao Zhu as soon as possible.

Just walking in the palace, Cao Huachun looked at the people in the palace, and his heart sank unconsciously.

Because in the entire palace, except for Wang Chengen, who guided him, there were almost no people he was familiar with.

This situation is absolutely abnormal.

He has only been away from the capital for three years, and in three years, how could there be such a big change in the palace attendants.

After hesitating for a long time, he asked softly to Wang Chengen, who was leading the way in front of him: "Chengen, in the palace, has something happened today?" ”

"There are a few."

In the early years, Wang Chengen was considered Cao Huachun's cronies, although after Cao Huachun returned to his hometown, Wang Chengen became the actual ruler of the inner court, but the love of the year was still there, so for Cao Huachun, Wang Chengen still respected him.

In addition, Wang Chengen knew in his heart that Long Live Lord summoned Cao Huachun to Beijing this time, and he must be ready to let Cao Huachun do things.

And the reason why he let himself come to greet Cao Huachun is that Long Live Ye must have wanted him to explain the changes during this period of time to Cao Huachun clearly.

Therefore, he did not hide it at all, and directly told him about what had happened in the palace recently.

"Grandpa dream? Cleaning the East Factory, Jinyiwei? Guozhang in prison? Rectify the Beijing camp? ”

Cao Huachun was stunned at first after hearing these news, and then he was silent for a long time, he seemed to understand why the Long Live Lord summoned him back.
