Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 66

Sun Jian ran and shouted for help, but did not dare to fight back even after being hit with a stick several times. It was okay for Li Wei to hit him, but it would be a big deal for him to hit Li Wei.

In the Ming Dynasty, when officials of third rank or above broke the law, they could only complain to the emperor. No department could control it without the emperor's order.

Those above the fifth rank cannot be interrogated without the emperor's order, and other officials must obtain approval from above if they want to be sentenced.

The hierarchy is strict and the classes are clearly defined. Those who commit crimes below are serious crimes.

Just like Hu Weiyong did when he killed the coachman in the street. If the emperor hadn't deliberately wanted to punish him, he could really have made it a trivial matter.

Li Wei is the same now, but his popularity in the officialdom is not good. Someone will definitely impeach him, but if no one impeaches him, no one will care about him even if he commits a crime.

Although he does not understand these class privileges now, it does not affect him in the slightest from beating this dog official.

What a joke, Zhu Yuanzhang has been beaten, well, he has been beaten, this sesame little official is nothing.

The two men chased and ran away, shouting, and soon alerted the others. When the ordinary officials saw that it was the minister who was beating someone, they did not dare to intervene and could only watch from the side.

At this time, Zhao Jun and Xue Xiang, who were working in the room, also heard the noise. Xue Xiang glanced at it, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and then returned to his seat, pretending not to hear it.

Zhao Jun was very positive. When he came out, he immediately shouted: "Stop! Li Wei, what are you doing? His Majesty just punished you, and you are acting so recklessly. Do you still care about the Holy Emperor and the laws of the court?"

Li Wei glanced at him, sneered, ignored him at all, and continued to chase Sun Jian.

"Master Zhao, please save me!"

Sun Jian shouted and ran towards Zhao Jun. Li Wei looked like he was crazy and had no intention of stopping.

Zhao Jun was shocked, this thief wouldn't dare to beat me too, would he?
Thinking of this, Zhao Jun quickly stepped back and closed the door with a clang.

Sun Jian was stunned at the door. Before he could react, Li Wei's stick arrived again.

"Oh~..."

Sun Jian screamed in pain, did not dare to stay any longer, and continued to run away. When Li Wei chased him away, Zhao Juncai opened the door again and continued to scold him, but it was of no use.

Seeing that Zhao Jun couldn't control it, Sun Jian hurried to Xue Xiang's room in desperation.

At this time, Xue Xiang, who had heard the excitement of the conference, came belatedly and walked out of the room.

"Master Li, please don't mess around."

Xue Xiang said calmly.

Sun Jian hurriedly ran to hide behind Xue Xiang. Li Wei was also tired from the beating and stopped breathing heavily.

The people watching whispered, some mocked, some were shocked, and some shook their heads secretly.

Sun Jian hid behind Xue Xiang and did not dare to speak, but Zhao Jun came to the front and shouted: "Li Wei, as the minister of the Ministry of Industry, how can you act so recklessly!"

"Oh, I'm happy to do it. Do you have any objections?" Li Wei said disdainfully.

"you you……"

"What are you!" Li Wei choked Zhao Jun, and then said harsh words to Sun Jian:
"Go ahead and sue if you can. I'll beat you every time you sue me. Let's see who can survive until the end!"

The vicious look was like that of a bully in school when he was a child, threatening the pupils who sued the teacher. Xue Xiang was speechless.

"Master Li, please don't talk nonsense. Okay, everyone, let's go back to work. Stop hanging around here!"

Xue Xiang dismissed everyone, and then called Li Wei and Zhao Jun into his room.

Sun Jian did not dare to stay and hurriedly ran around Li Wei.

"All sit down."

After Xue Xiang sat down, Li Wei and Zhao Jun also sat down one after another.

"Master Li, why did you beat your subordinate today?" Zhao Jun asked.

"none of your business?"

Li Wei frowned and said with some displeasure, he was not familiar with this Zhao Jun, so he didn't know why this guy insisted on protecting that Li Jian. "Huh, I'm on duty at the Ministry of Industry. Mr. Li behaves so recklessly. I will definitely report it to the Holy One." Zhao Jun snorted coldly.

"You can go ahead and I'm not stopping you."

Li Wei looked like a rogue and said nothing.

"You! I actually became colleagues with scoundrels like you, what a shame! Huh!" Zhao Jun waved his sleeves angrily and stood up, leaving without even taking a sip of tea.

Li Wei was a little confused. He pointed at Zhao Jun who was leaving and asked Xue Xiang, "What's wrong with him?"

Xue Xiang smiled and said softly: "Sun Jian and he are from the same hometown."

Li Wei suddenly realized that co-authorship was nepotism.

"Master Li, please don't do this again in the future. After all, you and I are officials of the imperial court. If subordinates make mistakes, they can be punished impartially, but chasing after them like this is too unruly."

Xue Xiang advised, and the implication was very clear. To find trouble, you must go through formal channels and not act recklessly.

Li Wei curled his lips, he wouldn't beat around the bush, that would be so laborious.

Just giving him a good beating like we did just now is the best way to relieve his anger.

Now he finally understands why Lao Zhu always likes to hit people. To be honest, it's so damn cool!

Xue Xiang didn't say any more, but asked with concern: "Master Li, are you used to coming to the Ministry of Industry for the past two days?"

"Hey, it's okay, but I'm too busy."

Li Wei sighed and said.

"Haha, Mr. Li is more talented than others. Naturally, those who are capable should work harder."

Li Wei rolled his eyes and looked at Xue Xiang who was enjoying tea leisurely: "I think Xue Shangshu is quite leisurely. Do you have any tips?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Xue Xiang choked on his words and coughed: "Master Li, why did you say this? I am also working hard to share your majesty's worries. There is no such thing as leisure."

Li Wei was stunned for a moment, and knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he added: "Xue Shangshu's official duties are so heavy but he can still handle it with ease. Is there any secret?"

Xue Xiang smiled, knowing that he meant nothing and didn't care about it.

"Master Li, you don't have to do everything yourself. Some things can be left to your subordinates, and you just have to supervise them yourself. Just like me, it's because I have Master Li to help share my worries that I can be so comfortable."

"..."

Li Wei was speechless. Did you give me all the work?
In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Xue Xiang to arrange Li Wei's current work, and Xue Xiang was not idle. After all, Li Wei lacked experience, so Xue Xiang, the leader, should keep an eye on him.

Li Wei was not in the mood to chat with him anymore, so he said goodbye and went back to do his own business.

He has visited various workshops in the past two days and has a basic understanding. In fact, the current smelting technology is already very good. With a slight modification and a change of fuel, he should be able to achieve what he wants. The temperature is high, even for ceramics.

Li Wei plans to make steel first. With enough and good steel, many things can be continued.

The next day, of course Li Wei still didn't go to the morning meeting and went directly to Qianqing Palace to use the computer.

In addition, he also found someone to make pencils in the past two days. The method is not difficult. He found graphite ore, which is very similar to coal, but different.Isolate the air and burn it, then grind it, add clay, mix it and squeeze it out to make a pencil lead. Make a small wooden stick, punch a hole in the middle, squeeze the mixed graphite clay directly into the hole, and wait until it dries.

He was really not used to using a brush, especially drawing pictures or something, which was even more difficult.

Li Wei did not go to court, but his deeds were recorded in the court. Zhao Jun impeached him again today.

Zhu Yuanzhang also had a headache after hearing this, but on the surface he just said "I understand" and dismissed the matter.

The other thing was that Han Yike. When he saw that Li Wei didn't come to court again, he became very angry and slapped him angrily.

Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude is also very clear. Anyway, the matter is left to you, you can take care of it.
