Chapter 783

Nearly a hundred people, including the huh-hu-la-la, servants, came and blocked the smelter's working compound.

"Who is there?" a eunuch began to shout in a high-pitched voice.

Soon a small official came to meet and serve them, and asked them to go to the office.

Xu Lingyue didn't want to call this place an official office, but just called it an office, making it more civilian and removing some of the official atmosphere.

Situ was also a eunuch himself, and he had been following the emperor all the time, because he served him well, and later the emperor promoted him to be the general supervisor and become the left supervisor.

Situ Qie was different from Mo Ti, he had always been arrogant and domineering, he acted like a dog in front of the emperor, and a wolf in front of other eunuchs.

Everyone hated him.

When Xu Lingyue asked Zhou Qishan and the others to go back to Beijing to recruit craftsmen, Situ Qie naturally refused to come because he didn't see the results at first.

His cronies are also lazy and lazy, and they don't want to come to such a bad place.

And many craftsmen who have a relationship are also unwilling to suffer hardships because of their connections, and just want to stay in the palace to enjoy the blessings.

After all, how much work is there in the palace in a year?

The smelter was new and had to do everything, so they naturally refused to come.

In fact, this is also Xu Lingyue's scheming. She deliberately went to find someone when the conditions were the worst. Naturally, the ones she found were the most reliable and the most down-to-earth.

And those who came to grab the credit after the results came out, none of these people were available!
She had already euphemistically mentioned this matter to Zhou Qishan, and Zhou Qishan also understood.

The first batch of thorns were subdued within two days, and now they are wholeheartedly for the smelter, and they also respect His Highness and Miss Six in various ways.

The newcomers are all here to grab credit, so it's not so easy to deal with.

At least they are unconquerable, they are either loyal to the emperor, or to the crown prince and the eldest prince, or they are just fools, and they are not eligible to be subdued.

However, their being able to come here also shows that Xu Lingyue's strategy was successful - the emperor did not send other princes here.

Ming Yi has the final say here!

When I went in and took a look, there were not many people in the room, they were all clerks.

Situ and the others were unhappy, let alone accepting the wind and washing away the dust, there must be someone of sufficient status to receive them.

A little eunuch rolled his eyes in a high voice and said dissatisfiedly, "Where did they all die? I don't know if our Grandpa Situ is here?"

Officials and eunuchs have been natural enemies since ancient times. Although some people will help each other for the sake of the overall situation, they still dislike each other in the final analysis.

Especially this kind of domineering eunuch, making himself look like an emperor.

The Yuanwailang Lu Ping was not happy, he saluted and said: "Zhou Shangshu and Mu Shilang have gone to the workshop, if Situ Zuojian doesn't want to go to the workshop, can he wait here for a while?"

Situ Qie made a long face, "Since Mr. Zhou is so busy, I shouldn't be idle waiting, why don't we go and have a look together."

He asked Lu Ping to lead the way, and they were going to monitor it, after all, it was his duty.

Lu Ping did not refuse, and immediately ordered people to watch the door, and then took them to visit those kilns.

Situ Qie got on his shoulders and let his servants carry him. He was originally afraid of the muddy road here, but when he walked, he realized that it was covered with cinders.

Not only is it not muddy, but it is very peaceful and stable.

He felt better, and was prepared to suffer a little bit, so it didn't seem so bad.

As soon as he moved, the others followed, except for those escorting the luggage, the other guards followed.
