"Old General Zhao, are you too worried?" Zhang Xian of the military department was the first to stand up, and he had some common hatred with Yan Lanfeng.

The credits he made to the top are all related to Fang Jue, if he doesn't say a few words, it will make people feel that they don't think about the source.

"Two adults, the old man is not worried about the young master, but the future of firearms."

Zhao Yang was not annoyed, smiled and bowed his hand to the two, and then looked at His Majesty:

"Your Majesty, the old minister just thinks that firearms are too powerful, and if the traditional army is difficult to check and balance, it will be dominated in the future...... Sooner or later, it will be taken advantage of, and it is only a matter of time before something goes wrong, not only at this time of the young master. ”

Everyone nodded.

This is not sensational, and it is indeed worth pondering.

"What General Zhao said, there is some truth, although the young master has no two hearts for Great Xia, but once this firearm is installed in all armies...... When the time comes, I am afraid that it will be a sharp weapon in my hand, and my murderous intent will arise. ”

Ye Xuanfeng also came to join in the fun, but in this case, of course he had to speak.

"That's what the old man is worried about." Zhao Yang arched his hand.

It's not about Fang Jue, it's about firearms.

If firearms can really dominate the battlefield, then they have to be guarded against, and once they fall into the hands of those who are not subordinate, they will definitely set off a storm.

Such consequences are really unbearable.

"You are all the ministers of my Great Xia humerus."

Xiao Pingsi admired, and he smiled: "It's right to take a long-term view and plan ahead, but what you think of, can't I and the young master think of it?" ”

"Oh?" Zhao Yang said unexpectedly, "Your Majesty means that you already have a manuscript?" That's the old minister's trickery, hehe......"

"Eh, Ai Qingzhong said bluntly, I'm not impatient." Xiao Pingsi reassured, he couldn't let these old ministers feel that they were not needed at all.

This is also not good, and it is not easy to return to the heart.

"When the young master formed the Musket Bureau, he talked to me in secret that the firearms battalion formed in the army could not be called up by anyone. On weekdays, firearms and ammunition are divided into different treasury to prevent accidents. ”

"After the firearms battalion is triumphant, it will be returned to the Musket Bureau, registered in the military department, supervised by the forbidden army, and will not be distributed with excess ammunition on weekdays."

Xiao Pingsi said with a smile: "In the future, more firearms battalions will be formed, and this will also be used as a template, the management of firearms must be accurate to the most detailed, all firearms must be numbered and registered, and the degree of attention must be higher than that of iron armor!" ”

After that, Xiao Pingsi looked at the ministers, saw that they looked deeply appreciative, and nodded:

"The young master has thought of this for a long time, and there are many more detailed means of prevention, so I won't talk about them one by one."

"The young master is really the pillar of the country, and the old minister admires it." Seeing this, Zhao Yang had to secretly laugh at himself for being a villain in vain.

Zhuge Qingshan said: "Your Majesty, firearms are really important, and the eldest son of the minister is now in the musket bureau...... The old minister thinks that he should avoid suspicion and let Zhuge Yong ......"

The Musket Bureau was very valued before, and Zhuge Qingshan felt that no matter how important it was, it could not be compared to the military department, so he also let Zhuge Yong be dug up by Fang Jue.

But now it is clearly written in the war report that firearms dominate the situation of indiscriminate killings on the battlefield, and the status of the Musket Bureau has suddenly been raised.

In the future, if it does not belong to the Ministry of War, it will inevitably compete with the Ministry of War, or even completely comparable.

Such an important institution should be in the hands of His Majesty, and Zhuge Qingshan was worried that his eldest son was too deep in it.

According to the rules of the DPRK and China, there can be no more than two officials in a family who hold high-level positions in different real power institutions at the same time.

What I am afraid of is collusion for personal gain, or even rebellion, which will be much easier.

Zhuge Qingshan, as the first assistant of the cabinet, his son is logically said to be unable to enter the cabinet, the three law divisions and the six ministries, and do the official position of Shangshu Shilang.

In the Musket Bureau, although Zhuge Yong has not yet been promoted to squire, Fang Jue once hinted at Zhuge Qingshan, and that position was reserved for Zhuge Yong.

In this way, Zhuge Yong actually controlled the Musket Bureau, and Zhuge Qingshan held the cabinet himself......

If someone says that the two of them rebelled, it would be difficult to explain it.

It's better to be conscious and take the initiative to retreat, so that there can be a good story of monarchs and ministers.

"Zhuge Yong......"

"This ......"

"It's a bit out of line."

"It is worthy of the old Shoufu, such a big power, regarded as a floating cloud, and took the initiative to retreat."

The officials of the He family are a little impressed, because at present, the real power position of this musket bureau cannot be said to be more sought-after than that of the Gyeonggi Provincial General Army in the future.

"Lao Shoufu deserves to be a national soldier." Xiao Pingsi nodded, Zhuge Qingshan had such an attitude, he was very satisfied.

However, Xiao Pingsi smiled: "But I can't agree." ”

"Why?" Zhuge Qingshan said, "The law of the DPRK and China is reasonable, does Your Majesty want to make an exception, absolutely not." ”

Some precedents, preferably not broken, will set a bad example for future generations.

Xiao Pingsi laughed:

"Old Aiqing, all Aiqing...... The Musket Bureau is only an institution that supervises the manufacture of firearms, and is independent in order not to be used, and the finished products produced by the Musket Bureau are sealed in a secret vault under the supervision of the Three Law Divisions......"

"To put it bluntly, the Musket Bureau is only responsible for manufacturing, and it is not the Musket Bureau that really controls these firearms."

"So, don't worry about the old shoufu, Ling Lang is at most the second squire of the Ministry of Works, not a position with a lot of power...... Don't shy away from suspicion. ”

Xiao Pingsi waved his hand, he was worried when he founded the Musket Bureau.

And the young master was too conscious, and the Musket Bureau had already played this matter before the start of production, and suggested that the finished firearms and ammunition be handed over.

The Musket Bureau is only responsible for production, and at most is responsible for inspecting finished products, and finally this power of sealing and supervision is the greatest, which belongs to His Majesty.

As for who His Majesty let take care of, that's another matter, anyway, if something happens in the future, it can't be blamed on the head of the Musket Bureau.

This is also Fang Jue's way to guard against being plotted.

"I see......" the ministers all nodded.

Only the officials of the Ministry of Industry smiled helplessly.

"It's like this, it's the old minister who misunderstood, Your Majesty Shengming." Zhuge Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Pingsi suddenly looked at the ministers, and his eyes wandered to the crowd of the three law divisions.

"Before, I asked the Imperial Governor's Mansion to take the lead, and the three legal divisions jointly formulated a draft decree that attaches equal importance to firearms and armor, has it been drafted?"

The people of the three law divisions all looked at the Tingwei Mansion.

The squire of the Tingwei Mansion came out of the class: "Back to Your Majesty, it has been formulated." ”

"Then why don't you give it to me?" Xiao Pingsi asked.

"Your Majesty has been busy lately, this secret document is confidential, and the minister wants to report it in person, but His Majesty is not free to ......," said the waiter of the Tingwei Mansion helplessly.

Xiao Pingsi pursed his eyebrows, covered his forehead and smiled bitterly: "Yes, I have been really busy recently. ”

"Then let's go after the dispersal of the court."

"Yes."

Wang Feng saw that no one continued to play in the hall, so he shouted out the classic lines:

"Ministers, if you have something to do, you have nothing to retreat from."

Lin Yanhai, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, came out of class:

"Your Majesty, there is something to do in the Ministry of Rites."

Xiao Pingsi tilted his head and gestured to him.

Lin Yanhai said: "Tell Your Majesty, the festival is near the end of the year, and the end of the year is ......."

"Huh?" Xiao Pingsi was puzzled, "The Ministry of Rites has been in charge of the festival for a long time, do you still want to ask for an order?" ”

The officials were also puzzled, and they all looked at the Ministry of Rites.

In the Great Xia court, there were many festivals every year.

Among them, the year-end ceremony is the most important.

There is a prayer to the heavens for a year's livelihood, praying for a smooth year, and praying for God's blessings.

"The minister is not asking for an edict, but this year's year-end festival is a bit ...... Bewilderment. Lin Yanhai looked helpless.

There are some things that he doesn't want to say, and if he says it, he is suspected of joining the party struggle.

But not to mention, when the matter is approaching, the ritual department makes a mistake and affects the festival, and he is even more guilty.

"Oh?" Xiao Pingsi smiled, "This is strange, what's the difficulty?" ”

Zhuge Qingshan's eyes rolled, and he knew it in his heart, but he didn't speak, and retreated silently.

There are some things that anyone who says are suspicious, so let the Ministry of Rites say it.

Lin Yanhai Road:

"According to the ancestral system of the imperial court, Your Majesty presides over the sacrifice of heaven and earth, and the concubines except for the six palaces kneel to serve the periphery, and the prince kneels behind His Majesty to accompany the sacrifice......"

"But at present, the East Palace has not been established, and in previous years, the two princes and royal highnesses performed the gift of the crown prince...... But this year, Beijing ......"

Lin Yanhai wanted to speak and stopped, but he didn't finish his words, but everyone present understood.

The King of Qi has gone back to Qidi, the King of Qin has returned to Qinzhou, and the King of Wei is on trial, and he may not be able to get out of the prison this year.

Your Majesty, your son can't make up the two princes!

"This ......" Xiao Pingsi was also suddenly startled, his eyes were a little incredible, I actually forgot such an important thing!

"Ahem......" many ministers laughed unkindly.
