They don't dare to force Lai Lai in the court now.

Instead, he spends a lot of time at home every day teaching his arrogant sons ideological education courses.

"It seems that the court of the Ming Dynasty still has to cut a few early birds from time to time in order to settle down."

After a few days, Zhou Xian felt it.

That's exactly what happened.

During this time, he rarely heard insulting words from the scholars and doctors.

Because they can't take care of it.

In addition, the officials who really do the real thing are also very happy.

At first they thought that by appointing them to things, they were taking them as sheep of sin, and oppressing them.

But when the horse encounters corrupt officials and corrupt officials, it is really killed.

Throughout the ages, there have been very few Qing officials.

But the biggest enemy of the Qing officials is the corrupt officials.

Zhou Xian fought corruption with an iron fist and killed corrupt officials.

In itself, it was a strong encouragement to the Qing officials.

Now, Xu Rongbing is speeding up the research on the latest model of artillery in the Ming Dynasty.

The caliber has become smaller, and the amount of ammunition has also decreased.

However, the accuracy of the artillery has been greatly improved, and the armor-piercing and lethality have also been enhanced.

Such a technological breakthrough is like the improvement of the traditional redcoat cannon to the mortar.

The final product is a reduction in the total tonnage and volume of the redcoat cannon.

It was convenient to carry around.

This is definitely a huge technological innovation for the current Ming Dynasty.

It is of epoch-making significance.

Because this allows the Divine Machine Battalion to be equipped with both the Three-Eyed Gun and a certain number of small artillery.

Truly achieve indiscriminate coverage of firepower.

Subsequently, it was the recruitment of technical personnel proposed by Xu Rongbing and Zhou Xian and the expansion of the Shenji Battalion.

Because it involves the army, this matter has to be decided by Sun Chengzong.

At this time, you can see why Zhou Xian and the princess hosted a banquet for Sun Chengzong and Xu Rongbing in the mansion before.

It's rare to have a free time.

Zhou Xian soaked in the princess's mansion for a long time, and made a child with Princess Zhu Yujiao of Changping.

In a trance, three or four days have passed.

Zhou Xian looked at Her Royal Highness the princess who came in more and more white and fat, and couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

Secretly rubbing and laughing at himself: You can't do this.

I have to recharge my energy, otherwise I will have difficulty walking in a few days.

"Xianggong."

Zhu Yujiao also noticed that Zhou Xian's body was a little weak these days.

Therefore, she thoughtfully boiled the nourishing wolfberry deer antler porridge early in the morning.

Zhou Xian looked at Zhu Yujiao's peach blossom face, and his legs couldn't help but tremble.

Just as he was smiling and preparing to drink porridge, the chief eunuch Hou Lianhui walked quickly to the gate of the mansion and bowed: "The slave has seen Her Royal Highness the princess, and the slave has seen the concubine Master Chitose." ”

"Father-in-law Hou, you came just in time, come in and drink some porridge." Zhou Xian hadn't seen Hou Lianhui for three or four days.

Now that I see him, I feel that the eunuch's eyebrows are much clearer.

Hou Lianhui hurriedly shook his head: "Horse, there is an urgent report at the border." ”

"Oh?"

Zhou Xian frowned, and then asked secretly: "Hou Lianhui, did you pass the urgent report to the Long Live Lord?" ”

"Master Horse, the slave only passed on to you, but His Majesty of Taishan Xingyuan must know."

"Hmm." Zhou Xian nodded.

He is now worried that Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen will suddenly return to dictatorship at this juncture.

But on second thought, it probably won't.

Chongzhen was already driven crazy by the border army.

Urging border warfare is not something he is good at.

If he has to obstruct him, Zhou Xian doesn't need to save face for him at that time.

After all, compared to Jiannu entering the customs, sweeping the Central Plains.

Compared with the follow-up Jiannu and Wu Sangui's eyebrows, and Li Zicheng's natural disaster situation.

That directly involves Zhou Xian's life safety.

When the time comes, there will be one more person who should hang on the old tree with crooked necks on the coal mountain.

When it comes to life, Zhou Xian also decided to be a tyrant who rebelled against the imperial power at that time.

"Bring it." Zhou Xian beckoned to Hou Lianhui.

Hou Lianhui hurriedly took out a wax-sealed letterhead and handed it over.

Zhou Xian took the letterhead, and his eyes were stunned.

Just by virtue of the above sealing method.

Zhou Xian knew that this was the information sent by Yue Ling to build a slave.

Yue Ling!

Sure enough, I didn't mistake him.

In such a short world, he had already set up a spy network in the territory of Jiannu, and began to provide Zhou Xian with intelligence on the enemy territory at a critical moment.

Zhou Xian immediately asked Zhu Yujiao to bring candles.

Slowly melt the wax seal on the letterhead.

Then the letterhead was opened.

After reading the information from Yue Ling, Zhou Xian's face was full of surprise.

But there was also a smile that was expected.

Yue Ling's letter.

The focus is to report to Zhou Xian on the general policy of Jiannu's side.

In fact, with Yue Ling's ability, it was impossible for him to get the secret information inside Jiannu so quickly when he first entered Jiannu's territory.

So he first wrote down what he saw and heard in the enemy territory as a message and reported it to Zhou Xian.

At this moment, Zhou Xian also knew that Huang Taiji was being restructured!

That's right, in the battle of Liaodong over the years, although Huang Taiji got a lot of territory that didn't belong to him.

However, he also lost a considerable number of troops.

Especially before he followed his father Emperor Nurhachi to attack the Ming Dynasty.

As a result, Nurhachi was hit by artillery.

This is Jiannu's biggest loss.

After Nurhachi's death, Huang Taiji's position on Jiannu's side was not very stable.

In addition, he lost a lot of soldiers, so many members of the army commander within Jiannu disagreed with him even more.

Especially those Jiannu 80,000 who were originally on a par with Nurhachi.

In just half a year, they convened two Eight Kings Councils.

Attempted to divide Huang Taiji's authority within Jiannu.

In such an environment, Huang Taiji brazenly emulated Zhou Xian of the Ming Dynasty and began to carry Zhou Xian's model and rectify the Eight Banners of the Manchu Dynasty internally.

And it has established the supreme status of the positive yellow flag.

This meant that the other 70,000 bannermen had to obey the orders of the Zhenghuang Emperor Taiji.

The old magnates of the Nurhachi generation were expelled from the circle of power by Huang Taiji.

Then there is the Junda system.

This system has existed in name only in the Ming Dynasty and has come to an end.

However, for a completely new regime, the Junda system is the most capable of capturing the hearts and minds of the people.

Now Jiannu owns vast land, which they forcibly plundered from the land of the Ming Dynasty before.

Now Huang Taiji is using those land resources to win the hearts of the people.

At the same time, a castle near the west was given to the Mongol Warat.

It is intended to show favor to the Warat tribe.

Is that the end of it?

Not yet!

Huang Taiji followed Zhou Xian's policy and imposed tax exemption within the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

In fact, this is purely selling dog meat on a sheep's head.

Because the Manchu Eight Banners belonged to migratory tribes and semi-closed farming civilizations.

Farming accounts for only one-fifth of fiscal revenues.

It is far from being comparable to one-half of the volume of Daming.
