The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

It was the second day, and there was no scripture banquet today, so after the early court, Zhang Juzheng was busy with the affairs of the cabinet, and Feng Bao also had some affairs because of the supervisor of ceremonies, and at this time, it was Zhang Fan who was teaching Zhu Yijun time, so it is not there.

And Zhang Fan, after the morning court, went to Qianqing Palace.

Yesterday, after talking with Zhu Yijun, he went back to find someone to investigate. In the Ming army, there were two completely different types of muskets, one was old-fashioned and the other was new-style. Because of the new-style muskets Compared with the old-fashioned ones, it uses less materials and is much lighter in weight. In addition, the power of the two types of muskets is almost the same, so now, whether it is Qi Jiguang's Qi Family Army or the Shenji Battalion in the capital, they are all equipped with new-style firearms. Although the old-fashioned muskets are still discussed in the army, they are no longer manufactured. After all the old-fashioned muskets in the army are damaged, they will completely withdraw from people's sight.

If it weren't for Zhu Yijun's vague memory, no one would have mentioned this matter to Zhang Fan, even when Zhang Fan was asked to ask.

But since there are still, there is no problem. Although the old-fashioned musket has been relegated to the sidelines and is not ready to be manufactured, its blueprint is still there. If it is still wanted to be produced, there is no problem.

Since there was, then Zhang Fan didn't take it into account. Since there was no estimate, then Zhu Yijun's proposal was in line with his original idea, so on the same day, Zhang Fan, who had verified the news, hurried back to the palace and explained the matter to Zhu Yijun. After the incident, he personally wrote down an imperial decree and handed it over to Zhu Yijun.

And Zhu Yijun also lived up to Zhang Fan's expectations. That night, he visited the imperial study for the first time after he ascended the throne. Under the suspicious eyes of the guarding eunuch, Zhu Yijun's expression did not change, and he explained his purpose grandly. He said that he recently Feeling the content taught by Jingyan, I wanted to read more books, so I came to Yushufang, a place that is clean and suitable for the atmosphere.

But the guarding eunuchs saw the emperor talking like this, but they didn't bother to ask Zhu Yijun whether what he said was true or not, so they withdrew according to his wishes.

In fact, Zhu Yijun has already shown his feet. After all, he is still a little guilty, so he explained this to these eunuchs and slaves. In fact, as an emperor, it doesn't matter whether he has power or not, as long as he wants to , there is still nothing in the palace that can stop him.

But fortunately, those were just little eunuchs, and Zhu Yijun was young now, so he didn't suspect anything, and this matter was quickly forgotten by them.

And Zhu Yijun also took advantage of that time to take out the imperial decree that Zhang Fan had written in advance, which he rolled up and hid in his arms, and stamped it with the jade seal, but afterwards, Zhu Yijun still pretended to be in the imperial study. Zhong read the book for a while, and last night, after Empress Dowager Li found out about this incident, she came to visit him specially, not only consoling him with words, but also asked the Imperial Dining Room to make some midnight snacks for him. , I'm afraid Zhu Yijun is tired.

This made Zhu Yijun very moved and guilty. After all, he had cheated his mother this time, but Queen Li not only didn't notice it, but praised him instead.

However, this kind of guilt did not stay in Zhu Yijun's heart for long, and it disappeared. In his opinion, although he and Zhang Fan planned this matter, although he could not say it to Queen Mother Li or tell the world, But it is also a good thing for the righteousness, for the country and the people.

Therefore, soon, Zhu Yijun felt at ease. In his opinion, even though he couldn't explain it to outsiders, it was the right thing to do, and it was worth doing.

In short, Zhu Yijun has settled the matter of the imperial decree, and Zhu Yijun seems very proud of it. When he went to court this morning, Zhu Yijun, who was proud of himself, didn't even look honest when he was sitting on the dragon chair. Zhang Fan below winked his eyebrows, and his appearance was obviously a look of asking for credit.

Regarding this, Zhang Fan felt very helpless in his heart, but his self-cultivation is quite good now, and his superficial skills are even more excellent. Facing Zhu Yijun's strange appearance in the early court, Zhang Fan was not moved at all, and has always been A humble look.

On the other hand, the other ministers on the side all reacted when they saw Zhu Yijun's appearance to Zhang Fan. Although all the officials had to consider etiquette in the early court and were not allowed to move or speak, but they looked at Zhang Fan's eyes. However, the doubts and doubts were self-evident, which made Zhang Fan somewhat at a loss as to how to deal with it, so he could only maintain a calm expression. Didn't see anything.

After the morning court, Zhang Fan naturally wouldn't stay longer, lest someone would ask him what happened just now. Zhu Yijun had just left, so he quickly got up and followed. Those ministers who were a little confused just now understood that it seemed that there was indeed something going on between Zhu Yijun and Zhang Fan, but there were different opinions on what was going on between the two of them.

In Qianqing Palace, just as Zhang Fan entered, Zhu Yijun immediately drove out the eunuchs and maids in the room.

"Haha," just as the door was closed, Zhu Yijun let out a smug laugh. Seeing that Zhang Fan showed a more proud look on top of the Great Hall of the Emperor than before, he said, "Teacher, just now Above the main hall, you can see the code I gave you, "

"Weichen... Weichen saw it," Zhang Fan said helplessly, of course he saw it, and what Zhu Yijun said was more than just a code, his appearance was obviously saying that the matter was done, and the matter was almost done. The content of the words came out, "Your Majesty is indeed a good skill. Such a difficult matter, His Majesty took the initiative to complete it without any effort. I really admire this minister." The words Zhang Fan said, even Zhang Fan Fan himself was not sure whether he was mocking Zhu Yijun or complimenting him.

"Oh, the teacher praised too much," and Zhu Yijun, who was obviously in a state of extreme excitement at the moment, did not think too much about what Zhang Fan's opposite was, and directly attributed Zhang Fan's words to himself. "Teacher, this is the imperial decree with a seal. I went to report it on purpose this morning. Even if the queen mother finds out, it will not be changed," Zhu Yijun said, taking the copy from under his bed. The imperial decree was taken out.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Fan really didn't know what to say, so he could only say some official words: "Your Majesty is wise, it's just that your Majesty was suspected by someone last night."

"Please don't worry about this teacher," Zhu Yijun said boldly, completely forgetting his nervous appearance last night, "I said that I want to come to the imperial study to read, who would dare to stop me, and last night, the queen mother also knew about it I came here specially to see me, and comforted me with kind words, and told me to take care of myself, and don't look too late," Zhu Yijun looked even more complacent when he said this.

But Zhang Fan really had nothing to say about this.

"In that case, teacher, hurry up and take the imperial decree to the Ministry of War," Zhu Yijun seemed very anxious about this matter, and now he has already started to urge Zhang Fan.

"This matter is not in a hurry," Zhang Fan said. "Besides, I have just arrived at His Majesty's place. If I leave now, it will make some people suspicious. That's not good. Besides, yesterday's experience The feast is just over, and it will be held again the day after tomorrow. If Your Majesty has any questions, I can answer them here. If not, if Master Zhang asks the question the day after tomorrow, and His Majesty has no answer, then it will be bad."

"Well, what the teacher said makes sense," Zhu Yijun thought for a while, and said, "The teacher is still thoughtful. If this is the case, I have to trouble the teacher."

Then, Zhang Fan began to give lectures to Zhu Yijun. However, during the lecture, Zhu Yijun was obviously absent-minded. As for what he was thinking, it is self-evident now.

However, Zhang Fan's mind was not fully focused on teaching Zhu Yijun, he was also thinking about this matter.

Now that the holy decree is in hand and things can definitely be done, Zhang Fan is still a little worried.

He knew that the Ministry of Industry was only in charge of manufacturing. As long as the imperial decree and the handwriting from the Ministry of War arrived together, the Ministry of Industry would not ask too much about why it made this batch of muskets that were outdated, but this did not mean that No one doubts, after all, this imperial decree has to go through the checkpoint of the Ministry of War.

Minister of the Ministry of War Yang Bo, this is not the first time Zhang Fan has come into contact with him. Since the last time he cooperated with Ge Shouli and Zhang Fan, Feng Bao planned to follow Minister Wang to frame Gao Gong, and finally his plan to cleanse the imperial power failed. Accompany you After that, Zhang Fan and Yang Bo had some friendship, and the two of them also talked a few times after that, and they still hit it off.

Because of this, Zhang Fan also knows Yang Bo quite well. This person is indeed very similar to Ge Shouli. He can enforce the law impartially and impartially in many matters. However, the only relationship between Yang Bo and Ge Shouli The difference is that Ge Shouli must stick to his own opinion in order to achieve something, but Yang Bo is different. What he wants to do, he doesn't care what method he uses, as long as it can be achieved, Yang Bo will do it.

For such a person, Zhang Fan is confident that he can persuade him to help him achieve this matter, but he can also keep it a secret, but as the saying goes, people's hearts are unpredictable. What kind of views will Yang Bo hold on this matter? , Zhang Fan also has no clue at all.

But this is not important anymore. After Zhang Fan goes to Yang Bo's place, we will see the outcome.
