I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

Chapter 259 Yan Shifan Was Deeply Attracted
When everyone rushed from the cabinet to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, they found that the emperor had been waiting here for a long time.

"I'm so late, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Before Jiajing could speak, under the leadership of Yan Song, several members of the cabinet knelt down on the ground in unison, pleading guilty.

"Before I even had time to complain, you are rushing to apologize to me?"

Jiajing looked away from Yan Song and the others who were kneeling on the ground, and said with a half smile.

"I hope His Majesty will forgive me!"

Hearing the emperor's words, all the people present showed nervous expressions and said in unison.

"Okay, okay, get up, I asked you to come here today, not to ask you to ask me for a crime."

"Presumably Lu Fang has roughly described the cause of the matter to you before, right?"

After Jiajing finished speaking, he picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip.

"Yes, Your Majesty! Before coming here, Eunuch Lu gave us a general introduction to this new weapon called the grenade."

"Your Majesty is really wise and knowledgeable. Compared with the ancient Luban, the sophistication of the concept you proposed earlier is even worse!"

"Forgive me for making bold guesses. When this new weapon named grenade is officially installed in our Ming army, the combat effectiveness of our Ming army will be raised to a higher level!"

As soon as Jiajing's words fell, Yan Song immediately stepped forward and flattered Jiajing.

"Haha, not bad, not bad, I am quite satisfied with what Yan Ge said."

"After the grenade is officially installed in my Ming's army, the combat effectiveness of the army will definitely be raised to a higher level."

It has to be said that Yan Song's flattery made Jiajing quite useful, and even looked at him with a hint of appreciation.

"Fuck, Yan Song, an old man, knows how to flatter His Majesty all day long! He is 81 years old, are you ashamed?"

Seeing this, Xu Jie at the side immediately despised Yan Song in his heart.

"Your Majesty is wise, I feel that..."

Just when Xu Jie was planning to follow Yan Song's way, and praised the emperor's idea about grenades earlier, Jiajing waved his hand and interrupted impatiently.

"Okay, okay, let's stop here for now!"

"Now, you all go with me to the Weapons Department to see if the power of this grenade is as it is rumored."

Hearing the emperor's order, everyone had no choice but to kneel on the ground and respectfully responded.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Immediately, Jiajing, Lu Fang and the five members of the cabinet embarked on the road to the Weapons Department.

……

At this moment, the weapons department is extremely busy.

Yi Bin, the chief of the weapons department, is anxiously instructing the group of craftsmen under him to make corresponding preparations.

"Hurry up, hurry up, prepare all the corresponding materials, don't make any mistakes!"

"Who over there, bring the grenade that was previously made here."

"And you, go over and see, have your Majesty and the others arrived?"

Before that, Yi Bin got the news in advance that the emperor would come to the Weapons Department to check the development progress of the grenade.

Just as Yi Bin's thoughts were racing, he saw a subordinate hurried in and said respectfully.

"Report, Your Majesty, they are already outside the Weapons Division!"

"What, hurry up and bring me there!"

After Yi Bin heard the news from his subordinates, he couldn't take care of other matters, so he hurriedly ran all the way, and led his subordinate officials out of the Weapons Department.

When Jiajing and his party rushed to the Weapons Department, they saw such a picture.

I saw Yi Bin leading his officials, waiting outside the Weapons Department early, and seeing the emperor coming, he quickly knelt down on the ground and said in unison.

"My minister bows to His Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

"No gift, get up."

I saw Jiajing waved his hand and said casually.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After getting Jiajing's consent, Yi Bin just slowly got up from the ground, but when he saw the group of people beside the emperor, his eyes widened involuntarily, his face was full of surprise, and he said to himself.

"It seems that His Majesty is quite interested in the progress of the research and development of the grenade. Even the elders in the cabinet have been called over!"

Immediately, Yi Bin forcibly suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and then faced the crowd, saying so.

"Not long ago, His Majesty proposed the idea of ​​a new type of weapon and named it a grenade! Based on this, our Armament Division has gradually restored the new type of weapon that His Majesty originally conceived."

"Everyone, please come with me."

After Yi Bin finished speaking, he walked in front of the side, playing the role of leading the way.

Along the way, Yi Bin also introduced to Yan Song and others the overall layout of the Weapons Division, the number of craftsmen, and the specific tasks they are responsible for.

Soon, under the guidance of Yi Bin, the group entered the weapons department.

However, many craftsmen in the Weapons Division were not aware of the arrival of the emperor and his party, and were still doing what they were doing on their own.

"Bold, not fast..."

Before Yi Bin finished speaking, Jiajing stopped him.

"No need, let the craftsmen continue!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Seeing this, Yi Bin had no choice but to stand aside respectfully.

At this moment, a craftsman ordered by Yi Bin earlier stepped forward and reported to him.

"Report, sir, the corresponding materials have been prepared, and experiments can be carried out at any time!"

"Well, yes, you go down first, the officer will come over later."

After listening to the craftsman's report, Yi Bin breathed a sigh of relief, and then ordered.

"Yes, my lord!"

After receiving Yi Bin's order, the craftsman quickly took the order and left.

Immediately afterwards, Yi Bin saw that everyone present was at a loss, and quickly explained.

"Your Majesty, the test mentioned by the previous craftsman refers to the test of the explosive power of the grenade!"

"Before this, the Ordnance Department has tested countless times. This new weapon called a grenade is almost as powerful as a cannon!"

"What, how is it possible!"

After hearing Yi Bin's statement, Yan Shifan couldn't help but exclaimed.

"It's frizzy, what does it look like!"

Seeing this, Yan Song immediately scolded.

But Jiajing didn't care about Yan Shifan's disrespect, but turned his attention to Yi Bin and ordered.

"In that case, let's take a look!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, please follow me."

Seeing this, Yi Bin quickly led the way, his face full of respect.

From here, to the place where the grenade is tested, you have to go through a long corridor.

Just like this, the group followed Yi Bin's footsteps while observing the surrounding situation.

Everything here is quite strange to Yan Song and the others!

The social status of craftsmen is low, and the objects they manufacture are usually regarded as "exotic skills and obscenities", which are embarrassing to use.

Even if there are some practical objects, no one wants to promote them.

Therefore, I don’t know how many practical inventions gradually disappeared because they didn’t get people’s attention, and finally disappeared forever in the long river of history!

At this moment, Yan Shifan's eyes were deeply attracted by the new cannon that was being debugged and improved by several craftsmen next to him, and he stopped involuntarily.

"What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and keep up!"

Yan Song, who was walking in front, was keenly aware of Yan Shifan's abnormality, and seeing that no one was paying attention to this side, he lowered his voice and reminded.

"Oh."

Yan Shifan came back to his senses suddenly, and then followed the team with two steps in three steps.
