Zheng Haizhu took Zheng Zhilong and had a private meeting with Gulit, and on the same night, they were respectively formed an oral report by the two channels of Jinyiwei and Dongchang, and passed it to the imperial front.

At this time, the celebrant eunuch took Wang An's palm, and there were some precursors of summer, and the eunuch Wang Tiqian, who was the third in the line, took Wang An's class several times, and listened to the order.

In the Qianqing Palace, after Wang Tiqian saw the factory guards retreat, he bowed down and said to Zhu Changluo: "Long live the Lord, although Mrs. Zheng came up with the idea of beating the Hongyi people back then, but this time, the elders in the pavilion have not helped the Long Live Lord Zhang Luo Hongmao's entry matters, so Mrs. Zheng stepped into the Honglu Inn to catch up, which is not very suitable."

Zhu Changluo closed his eyes slightly in the light breeze brought by the palace people's fans, but what he said was: "On both sides of the factory and the guard, they are very neat, and they are worthy of being the henchmen of the imperial court. I also thought that Luo Sigong and Liu Qiao of Jinyiwei had a good relationship with the Zheng family, and whenever it came to her, they would drag it out and talk to me again."

Wang Tiqian didn't know how to restrain himself, but he still insisted on pulling the formation to his side, and said after considering his words: "Commander Luo and Liu Dudu are both old men of Jinyiwei, and they have their own measure. Over the years, Dongchang has changed people like a marquee, Tian Shangshu's beloved grandson, after all, he is a child of a family, and he is too gentle, I am afraid that he will not be able to control his subordinates from stealing women and being lazy. Uh, so, the slave and maid usually have to go beyond the boundary......

Zhu Changluo's closed eyes opened, and his gaze was gentle and full of interest: "Dongchang has always been the overseer of ceremonies, and you can't put your hand on the wrong bowl if you go and stare at it. Then, are the people in the Dongchang factory more familiar with you than with his boss Tian Ergeng?"

Wang Tiqian weighed it, the middle-aged son of heaven was not a yellow-mouthed child, and he couldn't hide him as a fool.

The prince, who claimed to know the emperor's heart, simply put on a frank and honest appearance because of his loyalty to the king: "Hui Long Live Lord, that backbone of Dongchang, because he is a fellow slave and maid, he listens to the slave and maid's admonition very much on weekdays, and the strings in his brain are tight, but if there is a strange or uncourteous situation outside the court, he will definitely come to report to the Lord of Long Live in a hurry."

Zhu Changluo looked satisfied, thought for a moment, and said earnestly: "Wang Tiqian, the factory guard is my confidant, but those of you who helped me when I was guarding the cold stove and suffering in the past, let me rest assured. Alas, when the king's companion is not forgiving, I am really thinking these days that the next palm seal of the celebrant must be chosen."

Wang Tiqian smelled the strong fragrance of the top power, and was pleasantly surprised for a while, only with the cautious instinct of many years of worship, he did not show the gluttony of the dog begging for meat and bones.

He used a hypocritical but correct way of replying: "No matter who the Lord of Long Live decides, the slaves and maids are eager to put their whole hearts and livers and their whole bodies and bones to serve the Lord of Long Live more fiercely."

Zhu Changluo smiled and waved his hand: "I know, you go down."

After a stick of incense, in the Yikun Palace, which was not far away, Concubine Li Guifei put on a straight face and listened to the report of her cronies in the palace.

"Even if you go to send a mung bean soup to the Lord of Long Life, you can see the surnamed Wang in the Qianqing Palace. What time is this, and he is not the father-in-law of the respectful room, what is he going to do in the Qianqing Palace?"

Concubine Li was suspicious and angry, and her voice couldn't help but rise.

At this time, a palace maid who pretends to be intimate with the concubine shows a worried look: "It's still the mother who can see the clues at a glance. Wang Tiqian's ungrateful thing won't do anything bad to damage the honor of his mother, right?"

Concubine Li glanced at her, her eyes were slanted, but her tone was straight: "Last time, you went to the Zheng family to choose other jewelry for the palace, and met a young but bold beautiful little lady, and the maid mentioned the princess. You said that the Zheng family asked you to find out, which prince is it, whether it is a relative or the woman in the house you bought, how did you find out?"

Of course, the palace maid in charge knows, and Concubine Li also wants to figure it out.

The palace maid Monkey Er Jing first analyzed the eunuchs with financial resources in the inner court, and the surname Wang was none other than Wang An and Wang Tiqian. Although she didn't have any connections to follow the two eunuchs surnamed Wang, she realized that the current situation was that King Xin and Zheng Haizhu didn't like Wang Tiqian, and Concubine Li Guifei also began to be wary of Wang Tiqian's wrists, so her smart way to be a slave and maid was to find out the truth, push the boat down the river, and report ambiguously

information, and you have it.

The palace maid then pleaded guilty in three points and said in a seven-point manner: "Ah, the slave and maid begged the mother to punish her, and the two brothers of the slave and maid are simple, only listening to the legend of Nanhaizi, Wang Tiqian seems to have bought a young girl this year. As for Wang An's father-in-law, since the slave maid entered the palace, he had never heard that Wang An's father-in-law had a vegetable lady. Slave, slave and maid go and inquire again."

Li Guifei sighed: "I don't blame you, who let us develop last year, how can we be like Zheng Guifei, the family scouts outside the palace are only afraid that they are much more raised than the factory guards." By the way, the face of the little lady who bought jewelry, do you remember?"

"Slave remembers."

Concubine Li stopped talking, turned her head, and looked at her face in the mirror.

He and Zheng Haizhu are both women of the same age, and the surname Zheng is much worse than him in terms of foundation and maintenance level, but if he compares with a twenty-eight-year-old girl, he will lose miserably.

Wang Tiqian's eunuch, didn't he look at the MILF of the guest Yinyue, so what did he do when he bought a young girl?

……

In the next few days, the Dutch mission was officially summoned by Zhu Changluo, and the cabinet did not send auxiliary ministers to accompany them, except for the ministers of the celebrant supervisor, the only foreign ministers were the officials of Honglu Temple, the new editors and editors of the Hanlin Academy, and Zheng Haizhu.

But the Dutch were already flattered.

I originally thought that I would see a character like an archon, but I didn't expect to be able to stand in front of the emperor of the Eastern Empire.

They were the Netherlands, after all, they were defeated in the war that year, and the male ministers of the Ming Dynasty who had joined the Western Religion and the missionaries who had made friends were also from Italy, Portugal and other countries, so how could they take the initiative to help them match.

Gullitt pondered in his heart that although the woman surnamed Zheng did not give in on the price of the goods, she could also fulfill her promise to the gentleman's agreement, and persuaded the emperor to come out to meet them.

Zhu Changluo asked about some foreign customs, said some admonitions such as "You should enter the ship in accordance with the rules in the Fujian Sea, and you must not be a female offender", and after rewarding the brocade cloth, he ended the summons.

Returning to the Xinuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Changluo said to Zheng Haizhu, who was left behind: "This Hongyi people, it seems that they are indeed like what you said, unlike the Taixi missionaries who saw the emperor from before, they don't say anything about the Bodhisattva immortals, but only lick their faces and ask my Ming to allow them to enter the ship in Guangdong."

Zheng Haizhu said, "Your Majesty, this is the more direct way of Westerners from generation to generation. When the minister saw this Gullitt this time, he stared at him for a long time and asked about the situation on Europa's side, which was similar to what the minister learned from Yan Xuanfu and Zheng Zhilong. The ability of the Frankians is gradually declining, and the island country further west of the continent of Europa, called England, is afraid of rising faster than the Dutch red hair."

In the core echelons of power, the penetration of the words of the ruler's personal advisers is often stronger than that of the foreign courtiers.

Zhu Changluo was instilled by Zheng Haizhu for two whole years with the map of the sea frontier of all countries and the situation of the sea sellers in the southern customs, etc., and now he has an understanding of the pattern of the Age of Discovery, and he is not like those frog ministers at the bottom of the well who have reached the level of ministers and court officials in foreign dynasties and will ask "what can a Western island country do to me".

On the contrary, Zhu Changluo muttered meaningfully: "This England is also an island country, and like the Wa Kingdom, it should not be underestimated, right?"

Wanli Korean War, the Japanese army led by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the cognitive impact on the Ming Dynasty and Korea, Zhu Changluo was just a prince sitting on a cold bench back then, and he also sensed it somewhat from his master Sun Chengzong.

Zheng Haizhu did not shy away from expressing his worries about the future of the empire: "That's right, these Eastern and Western countries have more ambitions to plunder and expand abroad precisely because their territory is not large. So, long live the lord, our Daming, in their eyes, is a fat sheep. Only by showing their fangs and claws will they believe that we are also wolves, wolves more powerful than them, and long live the wolf king."

Zhu Changluo smiled: "Okay, you don't have to pat my ass, you can tell me now, right?" You ask the red fur what he wants to do when he buys whale oil?"

"Make grenades. Aside from the two tactics of the mandarin duck formation and the cavalry battle, in the long-range firepower of our Ming army, the lethality of the porcelain thunder is small, and the cannon and arquebus can only inflict heavy damage on the enemy in a specific formation

Jane took it with her, but when she threw it out, she killed and injured a large number of firearms."

Zhu Changluo was surprised: "This kind of firearm, fish oil can be made?"

"It's just an introduction, mainly relying on the compatibility that our Ming officials have figured out by themselves. Your Majesty, Xu Hanlin wrote a book "The Law of Building Strong Water" last year, and after reading it, he suddenly had an idea and wanted to give it a try."

Zheng Haizhu then combined the concentrated nitric acid and concentrated sulfuric acid production method discovered by Xu Guangqi with the feasibility of refining glycerin from whale oil, and relied on his reflection on black powder after operating an artillery factory for many years.

Just like pushing Song Yingxing to invent the steam engine that pumps water to the mine, to make a new generation of explosives, Zheng Haizhu does not need and has no ability to explore it by himself, it is also a start, prepare the raw materials for testing, and let go of the smartest minds of this era to ponder, just do it.

Zhu Changluo listened carefully and nodded frequently.

"Mrs. Zheng, the fire attack method, I taught Nurhachi a hard lesson back then, and I will not forget it. So, at any time, I will allow you to participate in the study of new firearms. You are a careful person, I am afraid that there are Jurchen spies in Jingshi, Jizhen, Xuanda, Denglai, and Songjiang, and you want to put them in Daning New Town of Ma Xianglin and Huang Zunsu to get them, and I also believe you, so I will say that you are selling red-haired whale oil to Chahar Mongolia."

Zheng Haizhu immediately got up from the throne and thanked him.

Zhu Changluo stared at her: "You know, in the past three years, I have seen how many books that impeached you, I have seen Xiaoxiao, why?"

Zheng Haizhu said: "Because the ministers are doing hard work, and they only like to fight. The minister's conscience is clear, so the minister's family background and the minister's mind are always ahead of them, and they will be explained to His Majesty."

Zhu Changluo lowered his eyes, remembering that three days ago, Wang Tiqian was also standing on the blue brick of Zheng Haizhu Station, and arranged, this woman's private meeting with Hongyiren.

When Zheng Haizhu heard the Son of Heaven on the dragon chair, she said in a mocking tone, "Why do they think that they are more strategic than you alone? I've been starting to figure it out lately, and they actually think they're more resourceful than me."
