Another boring sea voyage.

When he entered the mouth of Dagu, Guo An stood at the bow of the boat, yawned long, and said hatefully.

"When I go back this time, I will definitely strictly urge Tao Yiping and Yang Ting, the two bastard boys, to develop the steam engine for us as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if you don't say that it takes so much time to go to the Wa Kingdom, you will be punished with death! ”

"Guo Qing, can the steam engine speed up the big ship?"

Coincidentally, Zhu Di also walked over from the side, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

Guo An nodded slightly, "Your Highness, in Wei Chen's expectations, that steam engine can at least double the speed of the big ship!" ”

"Double?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, and then he hurriedly said: "After going back this time, Guo Qing can go to the firearms workshop with peace of mind and urge Tao Yiping and Yang Ting to do so, and there will be nothing else to bother Guo Qing!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Guo An hurriedly responded.

……

After a few more days, the fleet finally returned to Pei Binh Province.

At the same time, I also learned about the impact of the Lanyu case.

The first duke, the eighth marquis, and the second uncle, all of them were wiped out by the family.

In addition, more than 1,000 military generals and officials were also exterminated!

A total of more than 10,000 people were implicated, and the blood was flowing!

Now, all the Yuan Gong generals of the Ming Dynasty have been exhausted one after another!

In addition, Lao Zhu also had the "Record of Showing Rebellion against Ministers" promulgated all over the world, so that everyone in the Ming Dynasty once again saw the iron-blooded methods of the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

on this.

Guo An just sighed helplessly, as a Ming official, he is a rootless duckweed, and he can knead them as much as he wants!

No wonder in the future, when Zhu Dijing was martyred, many officials and generals watched from the wall!

And another month later.

Lao Zhu once again decreed that the King of Jin should control the guards of Shanxi, and the King of Yan should control the guards of Beiping, and all the affairs of the army should be decided by the court and the King of Jin and the King of Yan!

"I really only trust my own son!"

Hearing this, Guo An couldn't help but stare at him, sighed, and went out again, got into the carriage, and went to the firearms workshop under the escort of a team of Yan Shanwei.

The Ming Dynasty is all about the old Zhu family, and they are small people, they only need to follow a vassal king of the old Zhu family.

"Teacher!"

In the firearms workshop,

Tao Yiping couldn't help but look bitter when he saw Guo An coming in from outside.

In the past, he and Yang Ting had 100,000 whys in their minds, and they wished that Guo An would stay in the firearms workshop all day.

However, now Guo An has been on duty for half a month, and he comes to the firearms workshop every day.

Let Tao Yiping and Yang Ting tremble in their hearts when they saw Guo An.

"Look at you like that, but the steam engine has already been built?"

"Teacher, forgive me, I've been polishing for ten days in a row, and it will take a few days!"

Tao Yiping hurriedly said.

Guo An said: "Then speed up, all the craftsmen under the Yanwang Mansion, we can transfer them to you!" ”

"Thank you, teacher, but in order to ensure the safety of the steam engine, the students still prefer to use the craftsmen in the firearms workshop!"

Tao Yiping hurriedly said.

"Humph!"

Guo An snorted lightly, then sat on the side, quietly watching Tao Yiping and Yang Ting, with a group of craftsmen, busy with all kinds of work on the steel giant beast.

With the presence of Guo An, the overseer, the atmosphere in the entire workshop suddenly became tense, and no one dared to be lazy.

……

It was a few days later.

Another piece of news reached Guo An's ears.

Jin Yiwei commanded Jiang Zhen to commit a big mistake in the Lanyu case, and was given poisoned wine to commit suicide.

As for Jinyiwei, he abused his power, framed Zhongliang, and was beaten into a trick, and His Majesty was furious, and abolished the internal and external prisons from Jinyiwei's duties and handed them over to the judicial department.

Guo An had already expected this incident, and he didn't have any emotion.

However, what surprised Guo An the most was that Zhu Di's Yanwang Mansion had a rebellion.

Hearing this, Guo An only felt a cold air rising from his spine to the back of his head, trembling in fear, and hurriedly ran towards the heart hall.

"Your Highness, I don't know who rebelled?"

Yan Shanwei is the person who has the most access to firearms such as general cannons, incendiary bombs, and hand-thrown bullets.

If one of those people had bad intentions and stole a few of them casually, Guo An couldn't imagine how much chaos it would create.

Seeing Guo An's panting and frightened pale face, the originally dignified expressions of Zhu Di and Zhu Fu in the hall suddenly seemed to be melting snow, and they laughed.

"Your Highness, Zhu Changshi, this ......"

"Guo Qing rest assured, the rebels are Alu Timur and Na'er who don't spend these Northern Yuan ministers!"

"I see!"

Guo An breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, these Northern Yuan ministers shouldn't be able to touch those firearms and bombs in my Yanwang Mansion, right?" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Di's expression was slightly restrained, "Alu Timur and Nai Er Buhua, these Northern Yuan vassals have been captured by Tang Yun, and all the Mongolian generals associated with them have to be arrested, and no firearms and bombs have been found.

The Yanwang Yanshan Guard Station did not lose any firearms and bombs! ”

"That's it!"

Guo An's face showed a smile, and then he asked curiously: "Your Highness, I don't know why these Northern Yuan generals rebelled?" ”

"Humph!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Di's face became gloomy.

"These Northern Yuan thieves are used to being wild, thinking about drinking and eating meat all day long, and they don't want to be restrained in any way.

I wanted to unite some Mongols, steal some horses, and run back......"

"What a bunch of wolf cubs who can't be fed!"

Guo An scolded angrily, and asked, "I don't know how His Highness will deal with these thieves of Alu Timur and Nai'er?" ”

"I was sent to the capital division and handed over to my father for disposal!"

"Your Highness is wise!"

After speaking, Guo An couldn't help but suggest: "Your Highness, I implore Your Highness to strictly check the safety of Yanshan firearms and bombs again!" ”

Zhu Di nodded seriously, "We will consider this matter!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

With a casual flattery, Guo An withdrew.

It's just that a few Mongols want to rebel, even if they are already at the first level of Yan Shanwei's commander, it doesn't matter to him Guo An.

As for Zhu Di and Zhu Fu in the Heart Palace, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Zhu Fu, in particular, was even more indignant.

"Your Royal Highness, Guo Changshi is also the right Changshi of my Yanwang Mansion, and I used to take a look at the account books of Zhangjiawan Wharf, major workshops, and farms to deal with some matters.

Now, even these are not dealt with, and they are all day long in a carriage and go to the firearms workshop, so that the old minister is busy all day long without touching the ground, what is this like? ”

"Zhu Qing, but there are not enough scribes in the Long History Division?" Zhu Di asked with concern.

"Huh?"

Zhu Fu was stunned and looked at Zhu Di in disbelief.

Is this what he wants?

What he wants is psychological balance, the same official position, the same salary, he, an old man, is busy all day long, but the Guo thief is leisurely all day long!

"Your Highness, the old minister feels that he can't indulge Guo An like this anymore!"

Zhu Di said: "Zhu Qing misunderstood, Guo Qing has something important to do!" ”

Zhu Fu trembled, becoming more and more dissatisfied, "Your Highness, how can the matter of the strange and skillful craftsman be compared with the government affairs of the palace?" ”

"Comparable!"

Zhu Di nodded seriously.

"Zhu Qing, steelmaking technology, transparent glass, cement, improved rice seeds...... This kind can make our Beiping Mansion rule and let the Ming Dynasty rule! ”

Zhu Fu: "......"
