I am the carpenter king

Chapter 310 The Apocalypse Emperor's Hope

Without saying anything, Emperor Tianqi walked slowly back to his table with the wine jug, and while pouring wine for himself, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Both lovers, get up! Sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The two replied respectfully, and they both sat on the chairs.

Picking up the wine glass on the table, Emperor Tianqi said in a soft tone: "Since I ascended the throne, I have been working hard to do what I want to do. However, God seems to be punishing me. Things have been going on for a year. There are still a lot of things that haven’t been done well.”

"Your Majesty, I don't dare to agree with your Majesty's words. Your Majesty ascended the throne when he was weak, and he worked hard and conscientiously, which is a good example for an emperor!" Sun Chengzong shook his head quite seriously, and said in a very serious tone.

Emperor Tianqi was slightly taken aback, smiled helplessly, looked at Sun Chengzong and said: "Sir, you are absurdly praised, and I am only doing something for the people of the world, and doing something for the country of Daming."

"Your Majesty's kindness is the blessing of all people!" Sun Chengzong saluted Emperor Tianqi and said respectfully.

Qi Jin on the side sat on the chair, a little dazed, and didn't say a word.It seems that he did not hear the conversation between Emperor Tianqi and Emperor Tianqi. Obviously, Qi Jin was greatly touched today.

Turning his eyes to Qi Jin, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "General Qi!"

What people didn't expect was that Qi Jin was just sitting there, motionless, staring straight ahead.

Quickly coming to Qi Jin's side, Wang Chengen shook Qi Jin lightly, and said softly, "General Qi! General Qi!"

"Ah! What's the matter?" Qi Jin seemed to feel someone pushing him, and suddenly woke up, looked back at Wang Chengen, and asked hesitantly.

"General Qi, the emperor is calling you!" Wang Chengen carefully glanced at Emperor Tianqi.Seeing that Emperor Tianqi still had a smile on his face, his heart was slowly relieved.

It seemed that he only realized where he was at this time, Qi Jin's heart trembled suddenly, he walked out quickly, knelt down on the ground and said loudly: "I am unreasonable, please punish the emperor!"

Walked off the table with a glass of wine.Emperor Tianqi walked slowly to Qi Jin's side, looked at Qi Jin who was kneeling on the ground, and did not speak for a long time.

Picking up the wine glass on Qi Jin's table, Emperor Tianqi said softly, "Qi Aiqing, take the wine!"

After being slightly taken aback, Qi Jin hurriedly took the wine glass handed over by Emperor Tianqi, and held it in his hands with trembling lips, but did not speak.

"Qi Aiqing, I have already rehabilitated your uncle. Qi Jiguang is a loyal minister and good general of Ming Dynasty, and I know it very well in my heart. I have made amends to you for wronging your uncle and nephew for so many years!" Patting Qi Jin on the shoulder, he drank the contents of the cup in one gulp.

"Your Majesty!" Qi Jin yelled loudly, and immediately lay down with tears. All these years of misery and helplessness suddenly felt that it was all worth it.

Looking at the emotional Qi Jin.Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Drink this glass of wine, I still have something to say!"

He nodded vigorously.With trembling hands, Qi Jin brought the wine to his mouth, and after he drank it down, Qi Jin suddenly touched his head to the ground.Kowtowing respectfully to Emperor Tianqi, Qi Jin said in a trembling tone: "Your Majesty, Qi Jin is a military commander and can't say anything nice. The emperor will see later! I intended to fight to the death for Your Majesty. I will do my best for the country!"

Holding Qi Jin's shoulder, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Qi Aiqing, get up! I don't want you to die in battle, I want you to live well and do more important things for me in the future."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" After standing up, Qi Jin cupped his fists at Emperor Tianqi and said respectfully.

Looking at Qi Jin, Emperor Tianqi nodded with a smile, and untied his sword from his waist.Gently stroking the scabbard, Emperor Tianqi said softly: "This sword was left by Emperor Taizu, and it has been kept in the palace. I liked it very much when I was not enthroned, and it has always been by my side, although I have seen it before. Blood, but it still somewhat buried it. Today I gave the sword to Qi Aiqing, this is the so-called gift of a sword to a hero, I hope Qi Aiqing can kill the enemy in front of the battle with the three-foot green peak."

Qi Jin stood up just now, and quickly knelt down again, with an abnormally excited expression, and took the sword of Emperor Tianqi with both hands.

Slowly walking back behind his desk, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Get up! Qi Aiqing, I gave you this sword in the hope that you can take it to battle and kill the enemy. Don't refuse to give it to you just because I rewarded you." If you use it, you might as well bring it by my side. If one day this sword breaks, I will find someone to beat it for you! I will name it myself!"

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty! I will hold a sword in my hand to fight for Your Majesty!" Qi Jin was full of vigor at this moment, like a sword just out of its sheath, full of sharpness.

Nodding his head in satisfaction, Emperor Tianqi smiled and said, "As expected of a warrior on the battlefield, good, very good!"

Glancing at Sun Chengzong on one side, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Sir, I'm a little excited, so I'll wait for you sir."

"Your Majesty's worrying about state affairs is really a blessing to Ming Dynasty! I think about it day and night, with sincerity and fear!" Sun Chengzong's life was quite rough, and he never thought that he would be so important in his lifetime.

"Mister is not young anymore, and he is still running around the frontier for state affairs. I feel really sorry, but I have no one to use!" Emperor Tianqi looked at Sun Chengzong with a complicated expression, and he was the only one who could rest assured Second, I really don't want to exhaust this old man!

Lifting up his clothes and kneeling on the ground, Sun Chengzong said with a serious expression: "Your Majesty, I have been studying since I was young, and I have always taken it as my duty to help the world. Sun Chengzong has no regrets in this life to meet such a wise master as the emperor! Although I dare not say The old man is also determined to serve the country, so please let the emperor tell you anything."

Without going to help Sun Chengzong, Emperor Tianqi sighed softly, and said in a low tone: "Aiqing, do you still remember what I told you about Liaodong? And the 700 million taels of silver?"

Sun Chengzong was slightly taken aback, looked at Emperor Tianqi with piercing eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I will certainly remember!"

Slowly nodded, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "I have left the 700 million taels of silver in Liaodong, and have not taken the account from the Ministry of Accounts. You must know this matter. I have sent Chen Hong to take care of it." With this money, sir spend a festival in the capital, and then go to Liaodong! Spend the 700 million taels for me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty! I will live up to your majesty's trust!" Sun Chengzong said respectfully, touching his head to the ground.

"Get up, sir! I don't know how many years it will take to go. You must take good care of your body, go well, and come back well!" Emperor Tianqi said softly after helping Sun Chengzong up.

After appeasing Sun Chengzong, Emperor Tianqi once again looked at Qi Jin on the side, pondered for a while, and asked in a deep voice: "Qi Aiqing, I really want to ask you something!"

"If you have anything to say, just say it, and the subject will naturally know everything!" Qi Jin bowed and said in a respectful tone.

Slowly nodded, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Qi Aiqing, you once accompanied Qi Jiguang to suppress bandits in Zhejiang and Fujian. How much do you know about naval battles? How much do you know about naval divisions?"

Qi Jin was slightly taken aback, pondered for a while, and said in a hesitant tone: "My uncle once said that my Ming Dynasty did not have a strong navy, which should not be. If we had sailors, how would Japanese pirates dare to fight?" act like this?"

"I didn't ask you this. I asked you if you are good at naval battles and naval battles? Let's put it this way! If you were given a navy, would you be able to command it?" Emperor Tianqi looked at Qi Jin with a smile, very Said expectantly.

Ever since preparing to establish a navy, Emperor Tianqi has been looking for candidates.No matter what you do, the first thing you need is to employ people.The first thing Emperor Tianqi thought of was Zheng Chenggong, the most famous naval commander in the late Ming Dynasty, but now that Zheng Zhilong is still working as a pirate, it is impossible to talk about finding Zheng Chenggong!

But ever since he knew about Qi Jin, Emperor Tianqi's heart became active.Now that he has fought Japanese pirates, he must be no stranger to navy and naval battles. After all, there is no suitable candidate, so it is not a bad idea to hand over the navy to Qi Jin!

Although the shock he received today was not small, Qi Jin was still stunned by Emperor Tianqi's words.Sailor!Uncle always wanted to have a powerful navy, but he didn't expect it to be realized now.Once again, he felt in his heart that his uncle was born at an untimely time. Although the emperor in front of him was young, he was farsighted!

"Returning to Your Majesty, I know a little about the navy, but I don't know what kind of navy your Majesty wants me to command?" According to Qi Jiguang, the navy of the Ming Dynasty is already in name only, and the original ships in Fujian and Zhejiang don't know anything. That's it.There is a navy in Liaodong, but apart from delivering military supplies for the troops on the road, I am afraid they can't do much!

"I'm going to build a new navy in Liaodong, and initially order [-] warships. I'm already ordering people to study the blueprints of the warships. The location of the Jinzhou shipyard in Liaodong has been drawn. If you want to go, The shipyard will start work immediately. I allow you to recruit [-] sailors, and first station in Jinzhou for drills, and then launch the ship directly after it is built!" Looking at Qi Jin with piercing eyes, Emperor Tianqi said in a serious tone.

Although Emperor Tianqi said very well, Qi Jin frowned and pondered for a while, Qi Jin asked in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Qi Jin would like to ask, what kind of ships do these emperors want to build?" If you plant a big wooden boat with people on it, the navy is useless.

"Naturally, it is the best warship, and every warship will be equipped with new-style artillery!" Emperor Tianqi looked at Qi Jin with a smile, and said in a soft tone.

Hearing Emperor Tianqi talk about the new type of artillery, Qi Jin was overjoyed and couldn't sit still!

"Your Majesty! Minister!" Qi Jin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Emperor Tianqi's wave. (To be continued..)
