Chapter 33 Without further ado (please follow up)

Wang Yuanbao was stunned when he looked at the mirror boxes piled up on the ground. He didn't know where the emperor had conjured this up out of thin air, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He quickly went out and told the eunuchs to bring a big box. .

When Zhu Tianqi saw them picking up the mirror box on the ground and about to put it into the box, he quickly stopped them, picked up a mirror box, opened it and showed it to them: "There is a crystal mirror inside, so you are afraid of falling. Please be careful." Son!"

The few young eunuchs were so frightened that they quickly knelt on the ground, but they were holding on to the mirror box in their hands.

Wang Yuanbao was quite clever and immediately ordered: "Quickly find some straw to put on the bottom of the box!"

Although Wang Yuanbao had never seen how mirrors were put into boxes, he had seen how porcelain was put into boxes. This kind of objects that were afraid of falling had to be padded with straw.

However, Zhu Tianqi just told them that he was afraid that they would work too roughly and ruin things, but he was really not worried that these mirror boxes would break.

Because this kind of mirror embedded in a metal shell is very stable and thick, and has a certain ability to resist falling. This kind of small mirror box is strong and durable, and sometimes it will not break the mirror if it falls on the ground. This is why Zhu Tianqi One big reason to choose it.

Although Zhu Tianqi knows that the larger the size of the mirror, the more valuable it is, but similarly, the difficulty of transportation is higher. Doesn’t the Franji people know that a large mirror can sell for a sky-high price in the Ming Dynasty?But they were also worried about how to transport the mirrors here, and the sea was even bumpier. Every time they arrived at the Ming Dynasty, the mirrors on the ship would be out of stock.

Zhu Tianqi's mirror was bought in exchange for lives from the Krypton Life Store. Although a mirror box only lasted one day, Zhu Tianqi couldn't tolerate his life being wasted!

Under the command of Wang Yuanbao, several young eunuchs packed the small mirror boxes neatly and firmly in the box. Zhu Tianqi shook the box vigorously, but the small mirror boxes did not move at all. Of course, the box He didn't move at all, Zhu Tianqi was too weak...

As if to cover up his embarrassment, Zhu Tianqi clapped his hands, stood up straight, coughed dryly and said, "Okay, just move the box to one side. You all can step aside!"

After sending the young eunuchs away, Zhu Tianqi asked Wang Yuanbao: "Why hasn't Yuan Chonghuan arrived in the capital yet?"

Wang Yuanbao thought for a while and said, "Master Yuan should be arriving in the next two days. If your Majesty is in a hurry, will your servant send someone to greet you?"

"That's not necessary!" Zhu Tianqi waved his hand and then ordered: "Go and send a message to Sun Yuanhua and ask him to come to Qianqing Palace tomorrow morning."

Yuan Chonghuan is too arrogant. If he specially sent someone to greet him, he would be afraid that he would be too arrogant.

Yuan Chonghuan is indeed a useful talent when leading troops to fight and guard one side, but when it comes to being an official, he is not as versatile as his teacher Sun Chengzong. He only thinks about how to fight, but never considers his own actions. Whether a move will cause the emperor's suspicion and the impeachment of the officials.

When Huang Taiji entered the pass and attacked the capital city, Yuan Chonghuan did not launch an attack in order to find a fighter plane. Instead, he and Huang Taiji circled the capital. It is no wonder that everyone said that he "surrendered to the enemy and treason, and led the way for Huang Taiji." , which was also an important reason why Chongzhen killed him.

Now, in addition to Yuan Chonghuan, Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi and Sun Yuanhua have all arrived. It is not appropriate to delay the matter of going to Haojing'ao to purchase Hongyi cannons and recruiting skilled craftsmen from the West. It is better to explain clearly to Sun Yuanhua tomorrow and let him choose a date as soon as possible. Set off.The property stolen from the eunuchs’ homes should also be liquidated as soon as possible, so Zhang Guoji, the head of state, should also leave for the Jiangnan area as soon as possible, because in addition to selling these properties, Zhang Guoji also has an important task, which is to go Guangdong, Guangxi and Annan purchased grain.

Now there is a famine in Shaanxi, and there are also sporadic waves of rebels active. However, these rebels are similar to rogues, and their number is small. The situation is still within control, but if we wait until next spring, one day A drought that will last for several years will begin. By then, the development of things will be completely out of control!
Therefore, Zhang Guoji must transport grain to Shaanxi before spring. Even if the grain he buys is not enough to solve the famine in Shaanxi, as long as the court is providing disaster relief and the people see hope, there will not be so many uprisings. The army leader has arrived, and the trouble is getting out of hand!

Whether it was Zhang Guoji or Sun Yuanhua, this trip was of great importance and involved a large amount of property, so they had to be extra careful, so Zhu Tianqi sent someone to summon the commander of the Jinyi Guards and King Xin Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian was wearing a python robe and carrying an embroidered spring knife on his waist. He looked heroic. He walked into the Qianqing Palace with his head held high. Just as he was about to kneel down to salute, he was stopped by Zhu Tianqi: "Okay, fifth brother, no need to be more polite!"

Zhu Youjian had no choice but to put down his hands and stood respectfully in front of the Long Bookcase, waiting for Zhu Tianqi's instructions.

Zhu Tianqi asked directly: "Last time I asked you to help me choose the manpower, have you made the choice?"

When Zhu Youjian heard this, he quickly took out a list from his sleeve. It was obvious that he had thought that Zhu Tianqi might ask about this before he came, so he had been prepared in advance.

Zhu Youjian presented the list to Zhu Tianqi and said: "Your Majesty, there are a total of thirty Jinyi Guards on this list, including twenty from one hundred households, and ten from one hundred households for your Majesty's selection!"

Zhu Tianqi nodded, picked up the list, took a look at it, and put it directly on the desk, "I won't choose. Of course, there is no problem with the person you selected. I will use all thirty of the royal guards. It's just right. I also need some manpower. When you go back, tell them immediately to prepare for a long trip. They will set off in the next few days!"

Zhu Youjian didn't expect that the emperor would trust him so much. He was surprised and quickly raised his hand to salute and accept the order: "I have taken note of it. I will go back and make arrangements now!"

"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing!" Zhu Tianqi called him out again.

Upon hearing the sound, Zhu Youjian quickly turned around and saluted: "Your Majesty, do you have any other instructions?"

Zhu Tianqi smiled at him and said: "Actually, I have wanted to tell you this for a long time. You are my younger brother. Every time I treat you, I refer to you as 'fifth brother', but you are a little special." You see someone else, and every time you treat one 'subordinate' after another, don't you want to recognize me as your elder brother?"

When Zhu Youjian heard this, he was a little embarrassed and said quickly: "Chen, uh, I don't dare..."

Seeing his embarrassed look, Zhu Tianqi couldn't help but smile, waved to him and said, "Okay, you can go on your errands. Don't take my words to heart!"

Zhu Youjian had no choice but to grin dryly and salute: "Brother, please retire!" He quickly left the Qianqing Palace and went back to do errands.
