The current Daming can be described as Lao Zhu's words.

But Lao Zhu did not act alone, he first recruited the cabinet and the important ministers of the six ministries, explained the importance of these two ministries in detail, and persuaded these people very "politely", and then set up a civil weapons bureau in the court.

After he said this decision, most of the officials in the court felt that something was not appropriate, but when the ministers of the cabinet and the six ministers did not open their mouths to oppose it, few people dared to stand up and oppose it.

After all, Lao Zhu came back with his front foot, and his back foot began to kill, and the blood on the Jinyi Guard's knife may not have dried up yet, who would dare to come out against him.

Therefore, the Ordnance Bureau and the Civil Weapons Bureau smoothly became two brand-new departments, completely independent of the various ministries of the imperial court.

After getting rid of the officials in the imperial court, Lao Zhu began to transfer personnel directly from the Ministry of Industry to help Song Yingxing set up the shelves of the Civil Weapons Bureau first.

It's just that the grassroots manpower needs to be recruited by Song Yingxing himself, after all, engaging in scientific research in the Civil Weapons Bureau and being an official in the court are completely different things.

Although the people of the Hanlin Academy can use it, their majors are not very suitable, so Song Yingxing can only figure out how to do this by himself.

When he turns around, if he can't figure out a solution, or if he encounters any trouble, it's not too late to help him.

And after the matters of the Military Weapons Bureau and the Civil Weapons Bureau were finalized, Lao Zhu did not rush to buy books for Bi Maokang from the simulator, but summoned Cao Huachun first.

For the current Lao Zhu, there are more important things to do than research and development of firearms.

On the way back, Cao Huachun guessed that Lao Zhu might want to make a move on the officials of Daming, but he didn't expect Lao Zhu to be in such a hurry.

It's only been a day since I came back, and I summoned him directly into the palace.

Looking at Lao Zhu sitting there, and Chongzhen standing behind Lao Zhu, Cao Huachun saluted respectfully and said, "Minister Cao Huachun, I have seen Your Majesty, I have seen Grandpa. ”

"Alright, excuse me."

Lao Zhu waved his hand a little impatiently and asked Cao Huachun to get up.

To be honest, after Lao Zhu ascended the throne, he liked to bow down very much, because he felt that it could reflect his dignity and humility.

But now, Lao Zhu is starting to get more and more annoyed with this set of false etiquette, as for the reason, it probably has something to do with a sentence in the history books about his evaluation.

The original words of that sentence are that humility does not lie in bowing, the emperor does not lie in the mandate of heaven, Zhu Yuanzhang is a beggar, and he has achieved the position of the Ninety-Five, which is strength, not the mandate of heaven.

This sentence is half depreciatory and half praised, but it has won Lao Zhu's heart, so after experiencing so much in the history books, Lao Zhu has become more and more confident in himself, and he has become more and more despised for some unnecessary things.

And Chongzhen, who was standing behind Lao Zhu, was in a good mood, and he was watching from the sidelines when Lao Zhu reviewed the folds in the past two days.

After comparing with Lao Zhu's review, he found that the solution he had silently made before was about fifty percent correct.

As for the remaining fifty percent, in the words of Grandpa Tai, half of it is because the two of them deal with it differently, and half of it is because he does not have enough control over information and does not know enough about officials.

So except for the last shortcoming, the other problems are not very big, so it is rare to praise him for making great progress, which makes Chongzhen feel very relieved in his heart, and he feels that his efforts during this time have not been in vain.

In addition, Chongzhen told Lao Zhu that he wanted Zhu Cihong to learn to deal with government affairs with Lao Zhu, and Lao Zhu also agreed.

Such a double happiness made Chongzhen's mood very happy.

It's just that his sensitivity to the imperial court is still a little insufficient, so after Lao Zhu summoned Cao Huachun, he didn't guess what Lao Zhu wanted to do when he came to Cao Huachun.

Lao Zhu didn't care about the psychological activities of the two, he looked directly at Cao Huachun, and said straight to the point: "Shaanxi's Juntun, how is it recovering now?" ”

Sun Chuanting's inventory of the military tun in Shaanxi was regarded as an experiment done by Lao Zhu, and for this reason, Lao Zhu also specially transferred a group of capable people from the imperial court to assist Sun Chuanting in rectifying the military tun, just to see what obstacles could be encountered when rectifying the military tun.

So on the Shaanxi side, Lao Zhu had already asked Jinyiwei to insert a large number of Jinyiwei there.

"Back to Your Majesty, Inspector Sun is in Shaanxi to check the military tun, and now he is in some trouble."

When Cao Huachun came back from Huangya Pass, he guessed that Lao Zhu might rectify those officials, so he had already re-read the information after he came back.

At this moment, when he heard Lao Zhu's inquiry, he replied without hesitation: "At the beginning, those officials and gentry did nothing more than bribery, that is, violent confrontation. ”

"And the bribes that Inspector Sun basically does not accept, and the people under his command who accept gifts are basically engaged in military law by Inspector Sun, as for violent confrontation, they are not Inspector Sun's opponents."

"Therefore, in the early stage of the investigation, Inspector Sun's actions were very smooth, and several counties were investigated by Inspector Sun in the shortest time."

"But after the news spread, it was a little troublesome, those people not only destroyed the evidence in advance, but also returned the military tun to some military households, and then fanned the people and those military households to block the front."

"In addition, Inspector Sun is still busy dealing with Li Zicheng, so the inventory of Juntun is progressing very slowly."

In fact, at the very beginning, the reason why Sun Chuanting was able to investigate so smoothly was entirely because those powerful clans were a little unscrupulous.

Because they have been like this all these years, plus they have people in the court, they are not very afraid of Sun Chuanting, and they never thought that Sun Chuanting would dare to touch them.

As a result, when Sun Chuanting really made a move, they had no defense, and they were easily caught by Sun Chuanting with the handle and evidence.

But later, with Lao Zhu killing officials in the court, most of the backstage of those wealthy gentry fell, and the news of Sun Chuanting's large-scale investigation of the military tun also spread, so those powerful clans instantly became vigilant.

Originally, they were unstoppable, but they began to take the initiative to spit out their wealth under the pressure of Sun Chuanting, and then used all kinds of means to tie themselves to the people, and then used those ignorant people as knives to deal with Sun Chuanting.

Therefore, if Sun Chuanting wants to do something to them, it will become particularly troublesome.

"After so many years, the means have not changed at all."

Lao Zhu snorted coldly, not surprised by what these people were doing.

Those aristocratic classes began to do this hundreds of years ago, and now hundreds of years have passed, and they still have not made any progress, and as soon as something happens, they immediately begin to kidnap the will of the people against the court.

However, I have to say that this method is really easy to use, and if it does not expose their true colors, it is really difficult to deal with them hiding behind public opinion.

"Invincible Begins with Sacrificing to the Ancestors"

It's just that this method is too immature for Lao Zhu.

If Lao Zhu wanted to, he could have countless means to deal with those gentry who kidnapped public opinion, and even let them play with fire and burn themselves and die at the hands of the people.

But now Lao Zhu doesn't have time to play any conspiracy games with them, since he dares to fight, then just kill them all.
