I am the carpenter king

On the first day of the Lunar New Year in the first year of the Apocalypse, five thousand beautiful women selected from various prefectures and provinces all gathered in one place, that is, the capital.At this time, the matter of the entire imperial court became the mainstream, and the various parties that had been fighting all day seemed to have reached a certain consensus and all their flags died down.On the contrary, Dongchang and Jinyiwei were not running on the street, nominally escorting the emperor after he was elected.

Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Emperor Tianqi sat expressionlessly behind the Long Shuan, and Li Lan and Chen Hong were still waiting beside him.It's just that in addition to these two, there is one more eunuch, and this eunuch is Wei Chao, the admiral eunuch of Dongchang.

"Things in Huangzhuang are still stable?" Putting down the flattering memorial in his hand, Emperor Tianqi rubbed his astringent eyes and said to Wei Chao below.

"Returning to Your Majesty, a group of skilled craftsmen have already entered in the past few days. Trial production is underway in the past few days. As for the results, I don't know the results. The purchases that His Majesty told you are also in progress, although not all of them are collected. It’s already one-third of the time. According to the current speed of use, it’s enough for Huangzhuang to use for a while.” Wei Chao knew what he should know and what he shouldn’t know, and what he shouldn’t know is what he knew can not say.

"Well, very good, first you can find out for me, what kind of skilled craftsmen are there in the garrison camp in Nanjing, and the generals and supervisors of the Ministry of War. Especially those generations of military craftsmen can get as much as they can get, But we must be careful not to make people suspicious." Now that the firearms factory has been on the right track, the next step is to turn the things they researched into real objects, so these craftsmen are indispensable.

In the Ming Dynasty, many armies were uniformly issued by the court, but there was one exception and that was the Nanjing Garrison Camp.There is its own workshop and its own craftsmen, so if you want to dig a wall, the first place is naturally there.Naturally, it is safest to leave it to Dongchang to handle such shameful matters.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this old slave knows." For the governor of Dongchang, such a matter was naturally not difficult, and he didn't take it to heart.

This is how the new year begins, but no one knows what will happen this year.

Henan, Xiangfu County.

Zhang Yan was standing at her door with tears all over her face, and her father Zhang Guoji and mother Zhang Shi were on the other side.

"Yan'er, the road ahead to the capital is difficult and dangerous. You have to be careful when you arrive in the capital, and send someone back to deliver a letter." Mrs. Zhang held Zhang Yan's hand at this time, and told her indistinctly, tears continued to drip .Although she is not Zhang Yan's biological mother, the relationship between the two is closer than that of ordinary mothers and daughters. The Zhang family has always treated Zhang Yan as her own daughter.

Seeing this scene, Li Changmao, magistrate of Xiangfu County, felt a little uncomfortable. Things did not exceed his expectations. This Miss Zhang did not disappoint him. She passed the selection smoothly and was about to enter Beijing.

"Mother, don't worry, my daughter will be fine. If she is not selected, she will come back soon." Although Zhang Yan was sad, she had to comfort her mother. The road is also extremely at a loss.

Before he had time to say anything, the other side had already started to leave, and Zhang Yan couldn't stay for a while, got into his carriage and took his maid Xiaohuan with him, and set off on the road.

During this period of time, the entire capital city seemed to be very lively. With the arrival of beautiful girls from all over the country, the excitement after the emperor's election was once again set off.In the streets and alleys, countless people are discussing this matter, it seems that this matter has occupied everyone's life.

However, many people with a sensitive sense of politics have already noticed that something is wrong. Although the court still reports good news but not bad news, it seems that something is brewing in this court.

Three days later, a very ordinary memorial was placed on Emperor Tianqi's Longshu case, but this memorial was very special.He is said to be ordinary because this memorial is the same as other memorials, there is no difference.It is special because the cabinet of this memorial has no subsidiary opinions and requires the emperor's order.

Since coming to this world, this is the first time that such a thing has happened. Although Emperor Tianqi has studied history, he has only learned it roughly.Although he knew some things about the three major cases of the Ming Dynasty, he was not clear about many things.

Emperor Tianqi only remembered that many things happened in the early years of Tianqi. In this year, Houjin rose, Shenyang was lost, and almost all the three eastern provinces fell into the hands of Houjin.From then on, Hou Jin and Ming Dynasty began a war that lasted for more than 20 years, and Ming Dynasty completely entered the countdown to its demise.

Glancing at the cabinet minister Liu Yijing standing below, Emperor Tianqi said indifferently: "What's the matter with this memorial? Why doesn't the cabinet have any opinions?"

"Report to Your Majesty, this memorial is for the impeachment of Mr. Fang Congzhe. The cabinet wants to avoid suspicion, so please please Your Majesty." Liu Yijing also realized at this time that something seemed to happen, and there seemed to be something brewing in the quiet court. A huge storm, and at the center of the storm is the cabinet, or Fang Congzhe, the chief assistant of the cabinet.

Gently nodded, and glanced at Liu Yijing, Emperor Tianqi said: "Go down! I will read the memorial."

After Liu Yijing left, Emperor Tianqi handed the memorial to Li Lan behind him. Although Emperor Tianqi could understand the memorial now, such laborious things were rarely done.

Li Lan didn't hesitate to take the memorial and read it. For Li Lan, such things have long been used to it.The existence of Li Lan was no longer a secret. Everyone in the palace knew that Miss Lan was His Majesty's servant.The status in the palace is only comparable to that of Wang An, the eunuch with the handprint of the chief inspector of ceremonies. Wei Chao, the admiral and eunuch of Dongchang, always calls Li Lan Miss Lan when he sees her.

For the ministers in the court, Li Lan's presence was also something they were happy to see, after all, it played a role in restraining the eunuchs.They didn't offend Miss Lan, and respectfully called Miss Lan.Everyone knows that as long as the emperor gets married, this blue girl will at least be a noble concubine.

"Your Majesty." Li Lan called out, seeing Emperor Tianqi nodded, and continued: "This memorial is from Sun Shenxing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and the one who impeached is Fang Congzhe, the chief assistant of the cabinet."

"Huh, the background is not small. No wonder the cabinet handed it over. It turned out that it couldn't be suppressed. A senior member of the Donglin Party impeached the leader of the Chu Party. It seems that they finally couldn't help it." Emperor Tianqi sneered and stroked Holding the hilt of the Seven Star Sword, he signaled Li Lan to continue.
