"Your Majesty, the minister will retire."

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang looked in the direction of Ningbo Mansion and looked forward to Ye Qing's performance in Ningbo, Jiang Zhen came to his side and bowed.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately looked at Jiang Zhen and said, "What's the panic, we still have something to ask you." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's words were not too serious, and he also knew that Jiang Zhen had been tired for a long time, so he should go down to rest earlier.

He just continued to ask: "When Ye Qing handed over the ordnance technology, did anyone from the Ministry of Industry make it difficult?" ”

Jiang Zhen was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but then he knew what was going on.

Although those officials of the Ministry of Industry left after being bombed out, how could these scholars in horse-drawn carriages return to Beijing as fast as they could catch up with these lightly armed and fast-armed warriors.

Obviously, those officials of the Ministry of Industry are still on their way back to Beijing!

Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan's eyebrows immediately furrowed slightly, he really didn't want to be the person who 'complained'.

But even if he said this, after the Ministry of Industry officials came back, Zhu Yuanzhang would still know.

Rather than let those who were bombed out sue, it is better to let him, the person who has received 'local products', sue.

Although he couldn't help Ye Qing hide it at all, he could still try his best to reduce some of Ye Qing's sins in the way he spoke!

Thinking of the arrogant shouts of those doormen when the officials of the Ministry of Industry were blasted out, Jiang Zhen couldn't figure it out!

What is he trying to do this?

Tired of living in this world?

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhen saluted and said: "Back to Your Majesty, in order not to be discovered, the minister has always kept a distance from the gate of the county government. ”

"The minister only saw that the officials of the Ministry of Industry were blasted out by the doormen of the county government, and threatened that it was impossible to give military technology, but they could receive orders from the border army in the north!"

"And only the cost price is charged!"

In this way, Jiang Zhen not only reported truthfully, but also avoided the important on the grounds of keeping a distance and having limited audio-visual.

Compared with the sentence 'I am reluctant to give the position of prime minister, I still want technology', and the sentence 'I only charge the cost price, not to give His Majesty the Emperor face', this truth can be said to be very evasive.

But even so, the anger in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart has already rushed to the Tianling Gai.

Jiang Xuan, who is an apprentice, is still not as experienced as Mao Xiang, he knows what Zhu Yuanzhang wants.

If Ye Qing gave Zhu Yuanzhang technology, no matter how much cruel things he said, it would be harmless, but if he didn't give him technology, those cruel words that were more guilty in Jiang Zheng's eyes would still be 'harmless'!

"Step back and rest!"

In Jiang Xuan's eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze was very cold at the moment, and his voice was extremely cold when he said this.

Rao is Jiang Zhen is not as sophisticated as Mao Xiang, and he also knows that if he dares to say more, he will become the target of Zhu Yuanzhang's venting.

"Retire!"

As soon as Jiang Xuan's voice fell, he retreated and left.

At the moment when Jiang Xuan left the imperial study, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately looked at his regular eunuch Wang Gonggong.

"Message,"

"Let Mao Xiang take people to Ningbo Mansion and wait, and when Ye Qing arrives, he will tie us back to Beijing!"

Wang Gonggong just didn't react in a timely manner, so Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and said, "Why don't you go and pass the decree soon?" ”

The prince immediately shuddered, then turned around and began to run.

He knew that what His Majesty the Emperor wanted was not for him to salute according to the rules now and then run, but to run to the Jinyi Guard Command Envoy in a hurry.

But before he ran out of Zhu Yuanzhang's sight, he met Queen Ma who was walking towards him.

After Queen Ma glanced at the princess who was in a hurry, she subconsciously looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing there with an angry face.

Intuition told her that it was Ye Qing who provoked him again.

Thinking of the word Ye Qing, Queen Ma also had a little headache, this person is really not worrying at all.

But for the sake of his family's heavy eight good killings and talents, and not to do things that she regrets, she still let the princess stand on the side.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that his sister-in-law was doing bad things again, so he could only turn around and didn't bother to look at Queen Ma.

As for blaming the prince for listening to the queen more than listening to the emperor, he still chose 'There are a lot of adults, and they are too lazy to worry about eunuchs who have no eyesight'.

"Go back to the imperial study and talk!"

Queen Ma saw Zhu Yuanzhang turn her back, she didn't bother to look at him, and she was no longer gentle, she just stopped behind him, put down such a sentence, and walked into the imperial study alone.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the weak back in front of him, but the corners of his mouth grinned: "Say it like her imperial study, go back to the imperial study to talk, just go back to the imperial study to talk, are we afraid that you won't succeed?" ”

After Zhu Yuanzhang whispered such a cruel word, he strode towards the imperial study, and at the same time, closed the door casually.

The little eunuch who was waiting outside watched this scene, and also sensibly retreated to a position where he couldn't see or hear.

In the imperial study, in front of the empty dragon chairs, the two of them sat opposite each other on the chairs on the left and right.

Queen Ma still said gently: "Chongba, this Ye Qing hasn't arrived in a new place yet, so he can offend you again?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang just snorted coldly and said: "You must not offend us on the road, he offended us the day before he left Yanmen County." ”

"Tell me, let's let him upgrade six grades in a row, and then agree to the conditions he proposed, isn't it sincere enough?"

"But he's good, we just sent someone to ask for a military technology, and he blasted our people out!"

"As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog, isn't this equivalent to blowing us out?"

"You must know that he is not Master Guo, but Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"

“.”

Zhu Yuanzhang just used his language to tell Queen Ma what Jiang Zhen said to him.

After hearing this, Queen Ma only thought about it for a while, then said with a light smile: "Chongba, would you like to hear my opinion on this matter?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang just didn't feel good and said: "The mouth grows on you, can we cover your mouth or block our ears?" ”

Queen Ma immediately laughed aloud: "Chongba, I found out that Ye Qing learned from you, what did you do to me, Ye Qing did this to you!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but then he smiled with relief.

He is naturally angry with his sister, but he is just a knife mouth tofu heart!

But they are a husband and wife in distress!

Ye Qing, such a bastard who has no father, can also treat Zhu Yuanzhang with a knife and a tofu heart?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Queen Ma again and said: "Let's listen to it, we don't believe it, he secretly hides military technology, can it be for our good?" ”

Queen Ma nodded and said, "You're right, he's just for your good!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang just nodded with interest: "Our female Zhuge , our female prime minister, please advise!" ”

Queen Ma was also not polite, and said bluntly: "Actually, he has already given you the technology!" ”

"Isn't it obvious enough that he said that he accepted orders from the northern border army and only charged the cost price?"

"If you go to the north to open a military workshop dedicated to supplying the Northern Army, do you need to spend money?"

"And the money spent, is it the cost price?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his eyes immediately lit up and said: "Sister, what does he mean by making the Yanmen Arsenal become my Ming Dynasty's Northern Army Arsenal?" ”

After Queen Ma saw that Zhu Yuanzhang realized this, she continued: "I can guarantee that even if you have those technologies, the cost of running such an arsenal in the north will definitely be much higher than theirs. ”

"How so?"

Queen Ma said again: "Not to mention that the managers and craftsmen of the new school in the past are not as good as them, and they need to adapt to learning, even if they are the chief officials who manage this matter, you can't guarantee that they are not greedy." ”

"As long as you use a greedy word in this matter, it will harm the lives of thousands of soldiers and thousands of families!"

"Your Majesty, the concubine only wants you to ask yourself, do you dare to guarantee that the people under you are not greedy in this matter?"

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to these words, and his eyes immediately became more profound.

He still didn't want to admit it, but he also had to admit that if he used those technologies to open an arsenal, the effects in all aspects might not be able to reach the level of the Yanmen Arsenal.

After thinking about it, Ye Qing asked the Yanmen Arsenal to accept the order of the Northern Army, and only charged the cost price, which was really equivalent to the [Northern Army Arsenal] of the Ming Dynasty.

He Zhu Yuanzhang is a big boss, and he Ye Qing is a good shopkeeper who is conscientious, and he is still the kind who doesn't want a penny of money and is not greedy for any stolen money.

Thinking about it like this, he Ye Qing is really thinking about Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang's frowning brows immediately stretched out, and the corners of his mouth hung a touch of satisfaction!

But at this moment, in order to completely convince Zhu Yuanzhang, Queen Ma continued: "It's like your Yingtian Industrial Park, so that you can't paint like a gourd!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's face immediately sank, and his old face turned red: "Stop, we already understand." ”

"This Ye Qing is really for our sake, but what he said is really that a dog can't spit out ivory from his mouth."

"Obviously doing personnel, but he doesn't say a word about people."

Zhu Yuanzhang made a long criticism of Ye Qing's style of speaking and doing things.

And Queen Ma, who was opposite him, was completely relieved to see that Zhu Yuanzhang was just gritting his teeth and criticizing Ye Qing for not saying human words!

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished criticizing Ye Qing, a satisfied smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It's just because his inferences play a role at this time.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought, putting aside Ye Qing's lack of human words, many of the things he did were still very reliable.

Now that he thinks about it, he also feels that the technology of the Yanmen Arsenal is not applicable to the entire Ming Dynasty at all, whether it is the armor weapons they make, or the artillery firearms, etc., they only have an advantage in fighting on the land plain.

The equipment was too heavy to show its strength in the south, where there were many mountains and rivers and the sea.

You must know that the army of the Ming Dynasty is also divided into the southern army and the northern army, the cavalry field battle and the siege of the northern army are on the line, and the mountain and water war is on the line of the southern army.

Not only the Ming Dynasty, but since ancient times!

If it weren't for such historical and geographical factors, Xu Da's Northern Expedition victory would not have been so dazzling!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked in the direction of Ningbo again, and his eyes were full of expectation.

"If this Ye Qing can open another one for us, and the armament technology is far superior to the [Southern Army Arsenal] of the imperial court, then it would be great."

After hearing this, Queen Ma only smiled faintly and said, "You are more greedy than Ye Qing!" ”

"It is already very good that he can have such attainments in the military technology of the Northern Army, how can he have such high attainments in the military technology of the Southern Army?"

Zhu Yuanzhang just smiled and said: "Sister is right, if we are not more greedy than Ye Qing, how can we be emperors?" ”

"Of course, that's only for the two of us to say behind closed doors!"

Saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed again and said: "Speaking of which, let's not look forward to this matter of the Southern Army Arsenal." ”

"As long as he can build Ningbo Mansion into Yanmen County, he will be worthy of our grace of not killing!"

When it came to Ningbo Mansion, Queen Ma suddenly thought of someone.

That person is Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial nephew Zhu Huan!

When Zhu Yuanzhang's parents and brothers were starved to death, it was Zhu Liujiu, a brother surnamed Zhu in the same village, who gave him a thin piece of land and a few straw mats, which allowed his parents and brothers to settle down.

Because of this kindness, after Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor, he rewarded Zhu Liujiu again, and let their family move to Ningbo, and let Zhu Huan be the prefect of Ningbo.

Not only that, Zhu Yuanzhang also accepted Zhu Huan as his righteous son and allowed him to call him his father and queen mother.

Over the years, although Zhu Huan can't say how well he has governed Ningbo, it can be regarded as the middle level of the prefects in the country.

He belongs to the kind of political performance that is not good or bad, that is, the kind that is not very noticeable under normal circumstances.

As soon as Queen Ma thought of Zhu Huan, she opened her mouth to remind: "Chongba, do you want to send a letter to Huan'er, and tell him clearly that you demote him to Ningbo Mansion Zhengwupin Tongzhi and let him be Ye Qing's deputy, so that you can follow Ye Qing to learn his skills well." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang knew what Queen Ma was worried about, but he was afraid that this kid would snub Ye Qing and thus have a conflict with Ye Qing.

But for him, the righteous son and nephew, he is still very confident.

Zhu Yuanzhang just waved his hand and smiled: "Sister, you are too worried." ”

"Huan'er, like us, was born in Weimo, although he is not as capable as Ye Qing, but this kid is not bad, and he must be able to understand our good intentions."

When Queen Ma saw Zhu Yuanzhang say this, she only nodded subconsciously, but she just had a bad intuition.

But what is not good, she can't say at all!

A woman's intuition is very accurate, but there is really no way to say what is wrong!

A few days later,

The officials of the Ministry of Industry also returned to Yingtianfu and reported Ye Qing's bombardment to Zhu Yuanzhang more accurately.

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his eyes immediately became sharp.

"Okay, you Ye Qing!"

"I want to be the prime minister now, and I have such a huge appetite now, how can I get it in the future?"

"Isn't charging the cost price to give us face?"

"Yes, very good!"

"In the past three years, you'd better give Lao Tzu an point!"

“.”

Two months later,

The Jinyi guard, who was squatting in Ningbo Mansion, sent back news about Ye Qing to Zhu Yuanzhang.

The content of the secret recital: "Ye Qing, the new governor of Ningbo Prefecture, has not yet arrived at the boundary of Ningbo!" ”.

I ask the officials to follow up on the support, and ask for the support of recommended tickets and monthly passes, thank you!
