Chapter 891
Chapter 890 The third chapter is logical

Hearing the words, the emperor nodded and said:
"That's the problem. Now, with people led by Jing Hao, we are really not afraid of anyone on land, but we will suffer a loss if we fight this naval battle."

"That's not true!"

Fu Jinghao spoke softly.

Everyone looked at him.Fu Jinghao said lightly:
"When we were training people, we thought about fighting on the water. Our people are not afraid to fight on the water. It's not a problem to take care of one or two. But last time. I went to Haikun County. The equipment of our navy It is the most backward. Our ships are not as good as those of the salt merchants back then. And the salt merchants’ ships refused to say that they were bought from pirates.”

"That is to say, among the pirates, there are better ships and bigger ships than us. Our ships are not good, so how do we fight at sea? Next. Lei Shangshu, don't talk about your money Yes. Here, it is not a small expense."

Lei Shangshu nodded and said:

"What Fu Hou said makes sense. Our Eastern Dynasty has always paid attention to other dynasties on land. We are guarding against them. Over the years, nothing happened at sea, but I didn't expect the pirates to come ashore now. Something happened. It takes a lot of money to build a ship, but if you have the money, do you have the people who build the ship?"

Minister of the Ministry of Industry stepped forward and said:

"Your Majesty, in the early days, we used to have a man who could build a big ship. At that time, he was bought by the Xu family. Finally, I heard that the man fell to the pirates' side. Now, we don't have any A man who can build a big ship."

Xuejian frowned and said:

"The Xu family? The salt merchant back then?"

"Back to the prince, yes. It's the Xu family. Didn't it say that the Xu family was going to rebel, or he wanted to build a big ship."

Xue Jian didn't want to know whether the Xu family was going to rebel.But that's all for now.Xue Jian hesitated a little and said:
"Your Majesty, I have heard a little rumor."

The emperor turned his head to look at Xue Jian, Xue Jian seemed to be recalling, saying:
"Everyone knows that the head of the Lu family back then is now a subordinate of my Prince's Mansion. And once, when I was talking with the head of the Lu family about their years at the beach, the head of the Lu family said one thing, saying that the head of the Xu family got it. A baby who doesn't know it and misses the moment."

"At that time, the Xu family had already been taken over by the imperial court, so I didn't care about that. Now that Lord Shang Shu said that. I do remember this, but I don't know if this treasure is the treasure of shipbuilding?"

The emperor was startled when he heard this.In his opinion.The treasure of the Xu family is that box.Now that box is in my vault.Do you want to open it and take a look?Might as well be able to find out what it is.

When the emperor was still thinking.Liang Shengyue, who had been silent all this time, also said:

"Your Majesty, if the head of the Lu family knows about this, you can ask the head of the Lu family. Moreover, the head of the Lu family is more familiar with the sea than we are. Come to think of it. With the prince here, the head of the Lu family will still tell what he knows. Yes. With his help, it may be easier for our people to go to the seaside."

Everyone in the room nodded at Liang Shengyue's words.Fu Jinghao glanced at the emperor and said:

"Then, my majesty, I'll send someone to bring Patriarch Lu to the capital right away?"

The emperor thought for a while and said:

"There's no need to run on both sides. Patriarch Lu is a person with a sinful body, and if he comes to Beijing again, it seems that we have used him more. You have someone take him directly to Haikun County. Let him temporarily Stay at the Song Futai. Wait for our notice."

Fu Jinghao went out in response.The emperor said again:
"How to arrange going to the beach, how to subdue those pirates. You all go down and think about the arrangements. We will definitely send people there. We won't let those people hurt our people again."

"Xue'er stay here."

Everyone else also left.You know what the emperor wants to say to Prince Rui.

After everyone left, only Xuejian and the emperor were left in the room.The emperor said:

"I believe you have something to say. Go ahead."

Xuejian smiled and said:

"Your majesty is indeed wise. I can't say it clearly in front of them, but I really learned something from Patriarch Lu, that is, the secret box. Patriarch Lu and the others didn't know it was a secret box, but they knew that Patriarch Xu once took in the secret box. A foreigner. No one understood what that person said. I heard that that person can build big ships. It’s just that I didn’t discuss some interests with the head of the Xu family, so that matter didn’t work out in the end. Where will he go in the end? Patriarch Lu doesn't know, but we do know that people were killed by Patriarch Xu. But the things remained."

"So, Your Majesty, Xue'er guesses that there might be something used to make sea ships in that box."

The emperor was stunned for a long time when he heard the words, and then said after a long time:

"I didn't expect that there would be a sea boat inside. But the box is the same as the box of the enemy. Didn't the box of the enemy say yes?"

"Your Majesty, do you really believe that the contents of a box can harm the dynasty? I don't want to believe it, but we don't have that kind of box here. I haven't had a chance to study it carefully, whether it can be opened, and whether it can be used for profit! "

The emperor sat there in a daze, thought for a while before saying:

"So, you think we can open that box and have a look?"

Xue Jian nodded and said:
"Open the box and we can try to open it. I don't think there will be any harm. Some things depend on how they are used. As the emperor knows, we use the flying mine. If it is on a big ship at sea, we can do the same Use it. In our hands, it can be used to defend the country. It can be used to repel the enemy. But if it falls into the hands of bad people, such as other countries or pirates, we will have no way to deal with it.”

"What Xue'er said is very true. Even if the things in that box can hurt people, it only depends on how we use them."

Unexpectedly, there were still people in the study.Xuejian now has no internal strength and cannot hear human voices.

It was the Supreme Emperor who came out of the inner room.Recently, the Supreme Emperor also stayed in the palace, taking care of his grandson with the Empress Dowager.It's also a lot of fun.

Today, the Supreme Emperor only came to the study to check some things in the back room, and he also heard the discussion of court affairs outside.He also understood what Xue Jian said.That's why I accepted it.

Xue Jian bowed to the Supreme Emperor and said:

"I have seen the Supreme Emperor."

The Supreme Emperor stretched out his hand to lift it up, which was regarded as exempt from the gift of snow.The emperor turned his head and said:

"So, Father also agrees, let's open those two boxes and have a look?"

The Supreme Emperor nodded and said:
"Yes, no matter what is inside, whether it is good or bad, it is better to open it and hold it in our hands than fall into someone else's hands."

The emperor thought about it and said:

"That's good. I'll go and get those two boxes. Xue'er has a look, how to open this box. I tried once, but I couldn't open it, but I didn't dare to try again, for fear that the box would be locked instead."
