"Da Ming Zhengde Emperor New ( Find the latest chapter!

"Your Majesty, Liu Ruyue was actually wronged, and behind this was someone who wanted to murder her."

"Who? Tell me the truth."

Bai Xue was suddenly speechless, and once again did not know how to answer, but deep down she always thought that Liu Ruyue was timid, and it was impossible to write such a love poem.

"It's up to you to handle this matter, can you handle it well?" Zhu Houzhao asked.

"Concubine, concubine can handle it well." Bai Xue understood what Zhu Houzhao meant, he was intentionally training himself, or in other words, His Majesty wanted to give Liu Ruyue a life.

If this matter is handled by the Queen Mother, no matter whether Liu Ruyue has been wronged or not, she has only one outcome, and that is death.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, turned his head and said to Zhang Xuan: "Cousin, when you go to the Cining Palace later, explain the matter to the queen mother. I have already handed over the matter to Bai Xue of Chuxiu Palace, so she should not interfere. This matter, tell her old man to calm down and take good care of her body."

"Yes, cousin."

Since Liu Ruyue's title was removed, Bai Xue has always had a feeling that what Liu Ruyue has experienced is really what she wants to experience.

She had been poisoned before and saved her life from danger, but this time Liu Ruyue was also assassinated. Who is behind this?

As long as he encounters His Majesty's favor a little, he will do tricks in secret, and he will be murdered unwittingly.

Zhu Houzhao left Yangxin Palace and returned to Qianqing Palace.

Several recent major events are waiting for him to deal with.

In addition to the establishment of the Daming Navy, the commercial reform will continue to advance, and the plan to destroy Liaodong and the Jurchen of Jianzhou has also been put on the agenda. Now, only one military marshal is needed to destroy Jianzhou and pacify Liaodong.

As for the candidates for the main commander, careful consideration is needed.

If Cao Zhengchun directly leads the troops, it can also make the 100,000 enemy soldiers in Liaodong feel fearful, because Cao Zhengchun is notorious for being insidious and ruthless. The people there looted, but the consequences were unimaginable.

Besides, this Cao Zhengchun is an eunuch. If he is allowed to attack, he will definitely arouse criticism from the ministers in the court. Since ancient times, there has been no saying that eunuchs lead troops to fight.

Besides Cao Zhengchun, who else can be hired?

Wang Shouren? Qi Jingtong? Ling Luo Shi?

Just as Zhu Houzhao was thinking about the candidates, the **** who was in attendance came over, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the Minister of Works, Mr. Liang, asks to see you!"

"Call him in!"

Soon, Liang Chu, Minister of Works, walked in from outside the hall, and Zhu Houzhao ordered the **** to bring him a pier and let him sit there.

Liang Chu was flattered, this was something that had never happened before.

"Tell me, when are you really going to report?"

Liang Chu bowed his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Industry has made great progress in the development of the Fran cannon. According to the previously seized equipment, our Ministry has carried out an upgrade. This time, the speed of the bullet is much faster, which can save a lot of money. The time of the soldiers, so that the war has won a greater grasp."

Liang Chu, Minister of Works, reported this time to Zhu Houzhao, and took out a picture scroll from his sleeve and unfolded it in front of Zhu Houzhao.

"This is very similar to the one I gave you last time. Tell me, what has changed?"

Liang Chu pointed to a large part of them and spoke out their advanced practices in this restructuring, and Zhu Houzhao's eyes were filled with joy.

After the Minister of Industry finished speaking, two eunuchs stood below holding the cannonballs they recently developed.

"These two have had their coats removed, leaving only one appearance of the cannonball itself. Please take a look at your majesty."

Zhu Houzhao looked at these golden cannonballs, and felt that his head was so big. Such cannonballs felt like a cannonball, and the gold was ten thousand taels!

Because the shells are gold products.

Seeing this, Liang Chu hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, these two kinds of shells are really solid and durable, but the manufacturing cost is too high, so the minister intends to make them out of copper." With that, Liang Chu waved his hand and asked another **** to walk away with a generous plate. Come here, there are two copper cannonballs in it.

When Zhu Houzhao saw it, his eyes first lit up, and then he smiled knowingly: "Isn't this the cannonball I want you to know about?"

In fact, this cannonball is about the same size as the cannonball of later generations, and its power is not small. It has been developed now and has been used for hundreds of years.

"Okay, the development of such advanced artillery shells is a great achievement for your Ministry of Industry. How about the other development? What about our iron armored warships?"

Liang Chu, Minister of Works, heard that Zhu Houzhao was still asking about his iron-clad warship, and he couldn't help oozing sweat on his forehead.

"Go back to your majesty, the ministers are stepping up the research and development, and it has not been completed yet."

"Well, well, I'm going to hunt in the western suburbs. You go back and send me the latest cannon you developed to the western suburbs. I will use the cannon to hunt."

Liang Chu silently accepted the decree, this His Majesty, still does not change the character of the urchin at the beginning, although he is now focusing on the political affairs, but his playful nature will never change.

Zhu Houzhao went to hunt in the western suburbs, Shen Lian led the six thousand Jinyi guards in the capital to escort, and Cao Zhengchun and the cabinet scholar accompanied him.

They also want to go and see the new cannon developed by Daming. After all, it took nearly one million taels of silver to restructure it successfully. If the silver is not enough to satisfy His Majesty, it is estimated that the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry should be replaced.

Western suburbs hunting grounds.

A cannon was carried out, and in addition to the famous Hudun Cannon of the Ming Dynasty, there were other kinds of artillery. Of course, the large artillery guarding the gate of the country could not be pushed here.

Zhu Houzhao looked at all kinds of artillery, and his heart was ups and downs.

I used these artillery pieces to destroy the Jianzhou Tatars, do you think they are still arrogant?

Apart from the six ministers, there were no other ministers present.

Cao Zhengchun stood behind Zhu Houzhao and looked at these new cannons. His heart was itching. Before, he seconded several red-clothed cannons from the Ministry of War to bombard the No. 1 village in the world. If he wasn't in front of him, if he was there, he would have died for the country long ago.

No matter how high your martial arts are, no one can escape death when the cannon is fired. Cao Zhengchun has already tasted the sweetness before.

All the officials in the cabinet are looking at these cannons. They have their own ideas, and they all have their own ideas, but they all have an idea that if the country wants to maintain peace, these important weapons must be built.

At this time, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry came to Zhu Houzhao and cupped his hands: "I will play your majesty, and this minister will demonstrate the artillery of my Ming Empire for your majesty."

"In addition to these and Hudun Cannons, there are also three-eye guns, four-eye guns, and more complex artillery pieces."

Among their research and development, the Hudun Cannon and the Three-Eyed Gun are the most produced. These new firearms are used in the widest range and the greatest use.

The cabinet and the officials were watching helplessly. When they were called to the hunting grounds in the western suburbs, they were already looking forward to it.

"Let's start practicing!"

"According to the order!"

Liang Chu cupped his hands and bent towards the middle, asking them all to stand on the observation platform to watch, so as not to explode.

Boom!

With the sound of artillery, the entire western suburbs hunting ground was in the roar of continuous artillery fire.

The power of the artillery fire is getting bigger and bigger, and the sound is also resounding in the sky.

The range of various artillery is getting farther and farther, and this is the new result they have recently developed.

However, soon, a new type of artillery was carried to the middle.

Zhu Houzhao took a closer look~www.novelbuddy.com~ This cannon is exquisitely made. If nothing else, the large muzzle of this bowl is very suitable for Zhu Houzhao.

boom!

A cannon rang, but there was no strong smell of gunpowder.

A new artillery warhead pierced the sky, landed on the top of the mountain, and blew up the stone target built there. Its accuracy, range, and power were far superior to other artillery pieces.

Everyone's eyes fell on the filling of the last cannonball. Unexpectedly, in such an instant, the ammunition was also filled.

boom!

Load up, fire, all in one go!

And the accuracy is astounding.
