Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 345 Song Yingxing Enters the Cabinet
Song Yingxing was originally an official in the Chongzhen period. Because of his discord with those Qingliu, his abilities were useless, and he resigned from office and returned to his hometown.

He no longer has any official position, nor does he receive a salary from the court, so he calls himself a grassroots man in front of Zhu Youjian.

Looking at the famous scientist in history, Zhu Youjian couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional, and stood up to support Song Yingxing:
"Aiqing is free."

"Come here, give Ai Qing a seat."

The little eunuch hurriedly moved a chair for Song Yingxing.

Song Yingxing had never been summoned by the emperor before, and he was a little confused by Zhu Youjian at that time, but after realizing it, he felt a little flattered in his heart.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

"Song Yingxing is incompetent and unable to make any contribution to Daming. He has already resigned and returned to his hometown. I don't know why His Majesty summoned the grassroots?"

Zhu Youjian smiled slightly:
"Ai Qing is too modest, I know your ability, now Daming too needs a talent like you, and decided to reuse you, I hope you can make great achievements.

I have decided to confer you a cabinet bachelor, but the main responsibility is still in the Ministry of Industry. I hope that Aiqing can drive the prosperity of Daming industry. "

With Zhu Youjian's words, Song Yingxing directly entered the cabinet, and suddenly a rank of grassroots turned into a first-rank minister of the Ming Dynasty. Song Yingxing was stupid at the time.

A Qing girl standing behind Zhu Youjian saw Song Yingxing's bewildered expression, and hurriedly reminded him:
"Master Song, don't thank you yet."

After being reminded by Ah Qing, Song Yingxing came to his senses, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground:

"Thank you, Lord Long En. Your Majesty can't do it. You just need to give me an official position in the Ministry of Industry. I don't have any objections even if it's a fifth rank. I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this cabinet scholar!"

okay.Song Yingxing actually thinks that his official position is too big. In fact, he only wants to do more things. He really doesn't care about the size of his official position. What Song Yingxing cares about is the emperor's approval.

He knew that without the emperor's support and approval, Song Ying Xingkong had a whole body of talent, but there was no room for it, and he couldn't do anything.

Zhu Youjian didn't hesitate to employ people, and knew that Song Yingxing was a talent, so of course he wouldn't wrong him.

"Ai Qing, I have made up my mind, don't push back, when there is no major event, you don't need to report to the cabinet, just realize your life value in the Ministry of Industry.

With the status of a cabinet bachelor, isn't it more convenient for you to do things?I can delegate power to you. You can apply directly to the Ministry of Accounts for the funds you need for research and development and promotion. If the Ministry of Accounts disagrees or you have difficulties, you can ask me for money at any time. The start-up fund is tentatively set at 300 million taels a year.

But I have a request. The replacement of firearms must keep up. The weapons and equipment of Ming Dynasty must remain ahead of the world for 30 years. In addition, industrial machinery must be developed quickly. Large-scale military factories and clothing factories must be established and improved quickly. If the army wants to change into new clothes, it will be made according to this style. "

Zhu Youjian said, and handed Song Yingxing three drawings, one is our modern camouflage uniform, one is the production drawing of the bulletproof vest, and the other is the production drawing of the steel helmet.

Zhu Youjian is planning to replace the Ming army with new military uniforms. In the future, the military and civilians will be in the era of all firearms, and there will be very few hand-to-hand combats. Overweight armor is no longer suitable for the Ming army.

The country has been pacified, and the next step is to fight overseas. Wearing armor on a battleship is tantamount to courting death. Once it falls into the water, it will sink to the bottom quickly, so the navy will abandon the armor and equip it with bulletproof vests.

In future overseas battles, opponents will also have firearms, but at that time the offensiveness of firearms was still very limited. Simple bulletproof vests can effectively protect the lives of the Ming army, of course, bullets hitting the face are another matter.

Song Yingxing is a scientist. He is very curious and eager to learn about unknown things. After receiving the three blueprints and looking at them, he was immediately happy as if he had found a treasure.

Bow again and salute:

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust. I will definitely do my best for the development of Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Youjian laughed loudly:

"Okay, I believe in Aiqing, and I will tell you another piece of good news. You are not alone. There are Bi Maokang and Zhao Shizhen in the Ministry of Industry. I hope the three of you will work closely together."

"Come here, send Song Aiqing to the Ministry of Industry, and temporarily live in the same house as Zhao Shizhen and Bi Maokang."

"According to the order, I will resign!"

At this time, Bi Maokang has recovered, and he is busy in the military factory with his grandson, and Xiao Zixuan has been taken to the princess palace.

The three scientists gathered in the Ministry of Industry, and the sweet potatoes had also been planted. Zhu Youjian felt a lot more relaxed, and walked out of the room, wanting to go out to take a breath.

Seeing the emperor go out, Ah Qing hurriedly followed, Zhu Youjian turned his head and said to Ah Qing:
"Ah Qing, I don't need your protection in the palace, go back and rest, I will call you if something happens."

"According to the purpose"

Ah Qing bowed to the emperor with a blessing, then turned and left leisurely.

She is a swordsman, and she has to practice swords and internal skills when she has time.

After Ah Qing left, Zhu Youjian walked into the imperial garden, which was already a world of ice and snow. Although there was no green to be seen, it was another beautiful scene.

"The Curtain of Spring Breeze Races the God of Flowers,"

"Don't fall in love with each other frequently."

"The pavilion is newly formed and the flower desires to speak,"

"Who is the thrush in the dream?"

Suddenly there was the sound of a piano, accompanied by a beautiful singing voice, like a girl missing her dream lover, and the melody was very beautiful.

Zhu Youjian couldn't help being taken aback. Although there were already some court ladies and beautiful ladies in the palace, the number was still not many. There should be only four little golden flowers who can play the piano and sing.

But the sound of the piano and the singing are not like theirs at all, they are completely two types and realms, if it is not the four of them, who else can it be?
Zhu Youjian immediately became interested.Hearing the sound of the piano coming from the side hall not far away, she immediately went there.

The weather was cold, and Zhu Youjian took care of the eunuchs and maids in the palace. There was nothing to do, and they were not allowed to stand outside. There was no one on the road.

As soon as he walked to the door, the sound of the piano stopped, and then a burst of laughter like silver bells came from the room. Hearing the sound and strangeness, Zhu Youjian felt even more puzzled.

He thought it was two more precious girls behind his back to draft girls, and he was still secretly proud.

"Squeak..."

Zhu Youjian pushed the door and walked in, but the scene of the room made Zhu Youjian just say shit:
"Fuck, why did I forget about them..."

As soon as he walked in, Zhu Youjian immediately saw eight stunning beauties. Although they were older than Zhu Youjian's four little flowers, they were even more charming.

It turns out that the ones playing the piano and singing here are none other than the famous Eight Great Beauties, Qinhuai Bayan.

When the whole country was celebrating that day, Zhu Youjian left first, but when he left, he confessed to leave Qinhuai Bayan behind, and sent them to the palace after the dinner.

But in order to build a greenhouse and grow sweet potatoes and potatoes these days, he actually forgot about these eight beauties. Zhu Youjian didn't think of it until he saw them.

In fact, Qinhuai Bayan was also feeling uneasy these few days, the emperor left them in the palace, but never summoned them, these eight people didn't know what the emperor meant.

They are prostitutes, of course they are willing to stay in the palace to serve the emperor.

But they are all talented women, and they all have self-knowledge. The emperor is a sage in the world, so how could he want them as geisha.

Seeing the emperor finally arrived, Qinhuai Bayan bowed down together:
"The little girl greets His Majesty."
