But Liu Haojia underestimated the discipline, martial arts and courage he invited to invite all nights! Those who don't take it for granted that these bandits are military merits, and take the boys to fight freely! And where are those bandits who can only bully ordinary people who are armed to the teeth and do not collect at night!

So it's often the two who will be torn to shreds by the excited lads when they look at each other! By the time the soldiers arrived, all that was left was to push the goods back to Tianjin and bury the bodies! And the night is not closed, and they are proudly hanging a string of heads on the horse, showing off their power in Tianjin!

After receiving the angry accusations from the officers below, Liu Haojia had to force the night not to collect the bandits, and when they found the bandits, they could only besiege but not attack! As a result, an even more ridiculous scene appeared, Lao Ye did not take full advantage of Liu Haojia's order to "surround", they directly killed the sentries and "surrounded" the bandits face to face!

So when the bandits found out that they were surrounded by a large crowd of nocturnes, they actually surrendered! This is good, the soldiers of the Wu'an Army who rushed to the back did not even have the work to recover the goods and bury the corpses, and the long-awaited work of suppressing bandits became armed training!

However, after some rectification, Tianjin City and its surroundings have become the appearance of not closing the door at night and not leaving the road behind. It has made the people of Tianjin happy for a long time!

However, Liu Haojia still set aside a period of time to rush to Beijing a year ago, and this time he brought 1 million taels of silver to Emperor Wanli! As for Zhang Peijia and Tan Cuiying, they can only be entrusted to Zhang Shunping to take care of, anyway, he is busy with business in Tianjin and can't go back to Nanjing.

Liu Haojia returned to Beijing and was naturally warmly received by Emperor Wanli! Whoever sends two million taels of silver every three months will be warmly received! So Liu Haojia was in the palace with Emperor Wanli for lunch that day. Look at the book

Since it was eating in the palace, everyone naturally couldn't sit at the same table. However, Emperor Wanli also gave Liu Haojia the greatest decency, that is, his menu is exactly the same as that of Emperor Wanli! And Zhang Jia also got the opportunity to sit down and eat because of his meritorious assistance to Liu Haojia, which is a rare grace!

However, Zhang Jia's treatment can't catch up with Liu Haojia, and his dishes are all appreciated by Emperor Wanli after eating. However, in the palace with strict rules, his personal eunuch being able to sit and eat with Emperor Wanli is enough to show Emperor Wanli's favor for him.

The three of them talked and laughed and ate very pleasantly, especially when Liu Haojia told the story of dealing with bandits, which caused Emperor Wanli to laugh, and joked: "If this is the case, it is better for me to give you a decree, there are still many bandits in the surrounding provinces, Aiqing has gone to exterminate them, and he will be used as a soldier!"

Liu Haojia smiled bitterly and said, "Long live Lord, the minister also wants to do this, but he can't do it!"

Emperor Wanli was stunned when he heard this, and then sighed and said, "Yes, you can't pass the level of the military department alone!" These corpse vegetarians can't do it themselves, but they don't let others do it!"

This is not a joke, Da Ming is quite sensitive to the movement of troops. In particular, the inter-provincial transfer of troops is simply unacceptable in the eyes of civilian officials!

On the one hand, this is too risky, and if the soldiers and horses sent are not controlled, it is easy to cause big trouble! Second, if the provincial officials can't solve the affairs of the province, won't it seem that they are very incompetent!

So even if they know that they can't deal with these bandits, they won't let others exterminate them! Maybe Emperor Wanli has just made an order here, and a report document will be handed over below, telling him that the bandits in this province have been cleared! As for the bandits who have been exterminated, they will become new bandits!

Seeing this, Liu Haojia hurriedly said, "Long live the Lord don't have to worry, from what the minister said just now, it can be seen that these bandits are just scabies, but they are unwilling to do things honestly!" If you try to destroy them, their death will only be in the middle of nowhere!"

Emperor Wanli shook his head and raised his wine glass and said, "Don't talk about this, come, drink!"

After the three of them put down their wine glasses, Emperor Wanli continued, "Don't talk about the frustration just now, it's better for Aiqing to tell me about artillery again!" All I know is that the artillery shoots solid shells, and I've never heard of flowering shells!"

Liu Haojia explained the principle of flowering to him, and also described another new weapon for him

It's what is historically known as Congreve rockets!

Anyway, it's a large Sky Monkey that relies on gunpowder to propel itself towards enemies, then explodes to inflict damage! The power is not small, but as for the accuracy, it is completely up to God's will! But at least it's a weapon of range of destruction!

This Congreve rocket was once all the rage in Europe! Before every battle, if you don't shoot hundreds or thousands of them into the opponent's camp, it won't be a war!

Just when Liu Haojia depicted the future of firearms, and Emperor Wanli and Zhang Jia were drunk, a eunuch outside walked in and bowed down and said, "Long live Lord, the Queen Mother sent Miss Zijuan."

Although Emperor Wanli felt a little unhappy when his illusions were shattered, he still did not have a seizure, but ordered the eunuch to bring the purple girl in.

There are four daughters by the side of Empress Dowager Li, and the palace maid is her confidant who she often uses, and Zijuan is one of them! Such a person is Emperor Wanli, and he doesn't want to offend when he doesn't have to.

After a while, the eunuch came in with three people, the first one should be the purple cuckoo girl that the eunuch said, and the other two were low-grade palace maids, but they each held a plate in their hands, covered with a layer of yellow silk, and they couldn't see what was inside.

Seeing people coming in, Liu Haojia and Zhang Jia got up to greet each other. Emperor Wanli naturally wouldn't get up. And the purple cuckoo girl is also a smart person, and she did not rely on herself to do things around the queen mother and be presumptuous, but gave a gift to Emperor Wanli in a proper manner, and only got up after getting permission.

Then Emperor Wanli asked, "I wonder what the Queen Mother sent you for?"

Zijuan said, "Long live the lord, the maid was sent by the mother to send some things to Wu Ninghou."

Emperor Wanli originally wanted to ask what he was sending, but he thought that he would know about it soon, so he raised his hand and signaled her to do whatever she wanted.

When Zijuan saw Emperor Wanli's signal, he turned around and said to Liu Haojia: "Niangniang said that Wu Ninghou did his best for the royal family, and he prepared two million taels of silver just for the wedding of the Long Live Lord, which can be described as loyal! That's why I gave you a pair of jade ruyi!"

When Liu Haojia heard this, he wanted to kneel down immediately to thank him, but as soon as his mind moved, he immediately turned his head to look at Emperor Wanli, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
