November 16th, this is the third day after the emperor and empress left.
On a snowy day, Cheng Ying personally came to Shanglinyuan to announce the decree, which made Zhu Jinghong full of expectations.
However, the content of the decree is that Zhu Jinghong can move around in Shanglin Garden, which only expands his activity area, but has no intention of letting him return to the mansion.
This disappointed Zhu Jinghong, but he still accepted the imperial edict at Baochai's urging.
"Thirteenth Master, do you have any instructions?"
"Please tell me, father-in-law, that as long as he is happy, no matter how much grievance your son suffers, it will be worth it." ”
Cheng Ying originally had a smile on her face, but when she heard this, she was immediately filled with embarrassment, and for a moment she didn’t know what to say.
"Thirteenth Master, I'm leaving this servant."
Of course Cheng Ying would not convey those words to the emperor. To cause trouble for the emperor was actually to cause trouble for himself.
Although Cheng Ying left, the twenty palace maids and eunuchs who came with him stayed. These people were specially sent to serve Zhu Jinghong and others.
Now that it is freezing cold and his son and daughter-in-law are still doing hard work, Zhu Xianming really can't stand it, so he sent these people.
Zhu Jingchun and the two were extremely happy about this. The following days were at least much easier, which showed that they were really worn out.
When Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun were in high spirits, Zhu Jinghong said to Baochai beside him, "You can make arrangements for these people while I go out for a walk."
"Yeah"
< p>Since he can walk around Shanglinyuan, Zhu Jinghong naturally wants to visit Beisiwei.Although people often come over to discuss matters and let Zhu Jinghong have a grasp of the training situation, he still has to go and see it in person.
But not far after he walked out of the working place, he changed direction and went to the gun-making workshop.
Although the old man allowed him to work in Shanglinyuan with the intention of letting him oversee the training, Zhu Jinghong felt that he could not be too enthusiastic about it.
It is undoubtedly a wiser choice to go to the workshop first and wait for a day or two before going to Beisiwei.
The place where he farmed was not too far from the gun workshop, and it only took about two minutes to walk.
Although he was dressed in civilian clothes, there were very few people in the imperial city who did not recognize him.
"Meet the Prince"
At the entrance of the workshop, the guard bowed and bowed, with admiration in his eyes. After all, this man was a man who dared to do anything.
"Well, let's all get up."
He walked into the gate with his hands behind his back. The eunuchs inside also knew him, and they knew that he should be plowing the land now and should not be here. at.
"Kowtow to the Prince"
"Kowtow to the Prince"
Fortunately, these people have bright minds. Although there are ten thousand confusions in their hearts, they still salute and bow. .
"Let Jia Yun come to see me"
"Yes"
He arranged for Jia Yun to be hereAlthough Zhu Jinghong was in trouble recently, it did not affect Jia Yun's duties.
After giving this order, Zhu Jinghong came to the workshop meeting hall. As soon as he sat down, the eunuch brought him tea.
After only waiting for a few minutes, Jia Yun ran into the hall.
"Meet the Thirteenth Master" Jia Yun gave a grand ceremony. The experience of more than a year has also changed his whole temperament.
"Get up"
"Thank you, Your Majesty"
After standing up, Jia Yun hooked her waist and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, for regaining your freedom."
p>
Before Jia Yun could finish her words, Zhu Jinghong interrupted, "Okay, I'm not here to listen to your flattery, tell me what you have been tinkering with so far."
" Thirteenth Master, I have to say that this gun has really made some progress recently, and I am planning to report it to you," Jia Yunpei said with a smile.
I came here to take a look, but Zhu Jinghong didn’t expect that there would be a breakthrough, so he immediately became interested.
"Talk about it"
"Thirteenth Master, according to your previous guidance, our craftsmen are"
After Jia Yun's explanation, Zhu Jinghong Finally understanding the situation, he was smiling happily.
To put it simply, after nearly a year of trial and error research, both muskets and artillery have made breakthroughs.
In terms of muskets, the barrel material is stronger, the anti-explosion chamber and the aiming head have been improved a lot, and after the improvement of the gunpowder ratio, its range is also much longer.
As for the artillery, the main thing is that the gun body has been strengthened and can accommodate more charges, so that the range and power have been improved.
"Is there any reward from the Holy Spirit for achieving these results?" Zhu Jinghong asked immediately.
This is the issue he is most concerned about. Only by ensuring the treatment of craftsmen can they be more motivated to work.
Looking around, Jia Yun was not in a hurry to speak, but her meaning was already very obvious.
"You guys all go out," Zhu Jinghong said in a deep voice.
After his words, several servants in the hall went out. The place was empty and simple, and the wind and snow were loud, so it was impossible for outsiders to hear the conversation in the hall.
Facing Zhu Jinghong's questioning gaze, Jia Yun replied bravely, "Report to the Thirteenth Master, this villain has suppressed this matter."
Although he was dissatisfied, Zhu Jinghong Knowing that Jia Yun has always been thorough in her work, she would not do such a stupid thing without any reason.
So he asked "Why?"
"The Thirteenth Master was stuck in the field where he was working. The villain wanted to do the job more comprehensively and asked the Thirteenth Master to take advantage of this matter. , offer gifts to the Holy One during the New Year”
“The Holy One is so happy, maybe he will let the Thirteenth Master out”
At this point, Jia Yun knelt down on the ground, He confessed, "These are all delusional thoughts of a villain, please punish me severely."
How could Zhu Jinghong be willing to punish such a person who protects the Lord so loyally and only cares about himself?
"Forget it, you also have good intentions, but you must not do it yourself in the future.Make an opinion"
"This matter can be big or small, if you are not careful you will be in a state of eternal destruction"
At the end of the day, Zhu Jinghong was already thinking about Jia Yun's future and winning people's hearts. As soon as he opened his mouth, he came.
"Thirteenth Master's teachings, please remember this" Jia Yun kowtowed again.
" "Yes."
After getting up, Jia Yun asked carefully, "Dare I ask the Thirteenth Master if I can report the situation here to the Holy One?"
"I've hid it all, so just follow the original plan." Let's go and play together again before the end of the year," Zhu Jinghong replied.
If you come here by yourself, you will get results here. Anyone with a discerning eye will know that there is something fishy at a glance, so how can you hide it from the emperor?
p>So we can only pretend to be real, showing that it is for the sake of excellence that we have to submit the report before the New Year.
"Yes"
Standing up, Zhu Jinghong walked out of the hall. As he walked, Jia Yun immediately followed him.
After a few steps, Zhu Jinghong suddenly stopped and asked, "You were born in Rongguo Mansion, but you don't have an official status now, right?"
Hearing Zhu Jinghong mention this, Jia Yun was extremely excited, but he still suppressed his joy and replied, "I am just a member of the distant branch of Rongguo Mansion, how can I dare to hope for an official career?"
" I am satisfied if I can settle down under the Thirteenth Master."
Of course Zhu Jinghong didn't believe these words. He only heard him say, "Since you are doing things for me, how can I treat you badly? If the Holy Emperor is pleased, I will seek an official position for you, and it will not be regarded as a injustice to you."
Zhu Jinghong did not say too much. The emperor must be happy before he can seek an official position for Jia Yun.
"Thank you Thirteenth Master for your support." Jia Yun paid homage again, with a smile that could no longer be concealed on her face.
If he had stayed in the Jia family peacefully, he would still be a jobless refugee and would be able to find a job in the Jia family. It's hard to do any job.
"Come and walk around with me to see what's going on now." After saying that, Zhu Jinghong walked out again.
"Thirteenth Master, please." , several more furnaces were added here, among which "
Jia Yun's business ability is really strong, and she introduced the situation in a clear and logical manner, allowing Zhu Jinghong to quickly understand the situation.
Prince Xiang's Mansion, Jiangyunzhai.
In the window of the east wing, there is a beautiful woman holding a scroll, staring at the roof of the west wing, where several birds are chirping.
This woman is Keqing. Baochai asked her to move out of the garden. She has been living here for two months now.
But Keqing is extremely cautious, knowing that she now has no name. He didn't have any points, so he moved into the wing of Jiangyunzhai.
"Sister Qin is getting up."
Yinglian's voice came from outside, which brought Ke Qing out of deep thought. After waking up, she saw Yinglian who had entered the door.
"What time is it, how could I still be asleep?" Keqing said with a smile, and then greeted Yinglian at the window. Enter the house.
After entering the house, a maid offers tea, and Yinglian takes it.Just sat on the chair.
Although she is also a maid, due to her special status with Zhu Jinghong, Yinglian's status in the palace is very transcendent.
Let alone an ordinary maid, she is Deng An, the most senior eunuch in the palace, so she must be given some face.
"Looking at how happy you are, there must be some good news." Ke Qing asked with a smile.
"Our prince is coming back"
Yinglian's words were beyond Keqing's expectation. The latter immediately asked, "How do you know whether the prince is coming back alone or the princess is coming back together?" "
Compared to Zhu Jinghong returning alone, Keqing hopes that Baochai will come back together, so that she can solve the status issue as soon as possible.
That’s right, Zhu Jinghong’s return is of no use, because the most basic concubine in the palace must be appointed with the signature of the princess to be in compliance with the rules.
Yinglian did not reply directly, but said, "I heard the eunuch below saying that Miss Yang is coming back."
"Miss Yang"
"She is our prince's concubine and the queen's niece."
After hearing what Yinglian said, Keqing finally understood the situation, so she asked again, "When Miss Yang comes back, is she with you?" What does the whereabouts of the prince have to do with it?"
"Miss Yang is the concubine of the prince's palace. She must be canonized by the queen before she can enter the palace. If there is no prince, how can she be canonized?"
Hearing Yinglian's reason, But Qing only thinks she is innocent and cute.
Now that even the princess has not been officially registered, a concubine can bring the prince back, but Qing is skeptical about this.
While the two women were having different thoughts, Zhu Jinghong, dressed in civilian clothes, rode a horse and rushed to the school grounds surrounded by Hou Jing and others.
"Thirteenth Master, I haven't seen you in these two months, but we are all thinking about you."
Looking at Hou Jing, Zhu Jinghong asked, "Missing me?" How can you put up a sign at home thinking of me and worship me every day?”
Hearing this, everyone present laughed, and suddenly everyone found a familiar feeling again, secretly thinking that the Thirteenth Master has really never Change.
"That's it"
With his words, everyone suppressed their smiles and waited for Zhu Jinghong's instructions.
"I'm not here these days. Are you serious about your work and thinking about things with your heart?"
At this time, Zhang Lin replied, "Reporting to the Thirteenth Master, I have done my best to complete my errands." "How dare we forget your orders?"
"Really? Then I ask you how to arrange the spear soldiers and fire gun soldiers, and what are your requirements?" Zhu Jinghong asked casually.
The guards present here are the focus of his support, which requires them to have sufficient ability, otherwise they will be nothing but mud that cannot hold up the wall.
"Report to the Thirteenth Master, spears and firecrackers"
Zhang Lin answered one by one, and the content of his answers was very standard, which shows that he usually puts his heart into it.
After nodding his head, Zhu Jinghong glanced around and landed on Hou Jing, who was squeezing behind.
"Hou Jing, why are you hiding?"
"The Thirteenth Master is joking, how could I hide it?"
Hou Jing smiled awkwardly. Although he was sure of his military theory, he still didn't want to be drawn.
"Let me ask you"
Although he didn't want to be asked, Zhu Jinghong refused to let him go. Fortunately, this guy also answered clearly.
Zhu Jinghong then asked a few more people, and they all answered in a standard and thorough manner, which made him truly satisfied.
While everyone was asking questions, they arrived outside the Habayashi Zuowei School. They heard the sound of war drums and shouts of death in the distance, and even the sound of artillery and gunfire.
When Zhu Jinghong came to the school grounds, the commander Jiang Qingsheng led people to greet him, and the entire "military exercise" was also suspended.
"See the Thirteenth Master"
Leaping off his horse, Zhu Jinghong walked to Jiang Qingsheng, helped him up personally and said, "I just stopped by to take a look, why do you have to mobilize so many troops?" "
"Let them continue"
"Yes"
After agreeing, Jiang Qingsheng winked at several deputies, and these people went to their respective places. The commander has gone.
"Thirteenth Master, please come here. We can see more clearly from the sentry tower in front."
"Yes."
"It's okay. You can all go to your own places." Come on, tell the others that I will go see them later."
The thirty or so guards he asked to come were evenly divided among the four northern guards. The only eight guards on the left guard of Yulin were Hou Jing and others. people.
"Yes"
After everyone left, Zhu Jinghong went to the sentry tower with Jiang Qingsheng, accompanied only by Hou Jing and a few others.
Going up to the sentry tower, you can indeed get a glimpse of the entire military formation. The combination of firecrackers and artillery formed a strike net, and it was like a thunderous force at every turn.
Watching the changes in the military formation with a telescope, Zhu Jinghong’s smile grew brighter.
After a few breaths, he put away the telescope, turned around and said to Jiang Qingsheng, "Commander Jiang's training this year has really been very effective, and the Habayashi left guard has been completely transformed."
Jiang Qingsheng replied with a smile. He said, "Thanks to the Lord Hongfu and the guidance of the Thirteenth Master, our army is what it is today."
"With such a majestic military power, I plan to invite the Holy One to come over for review. You four guards will train together. What do you think of this idea?" "How?"
"I think it's feasible," Jiang Qingsheng replied immediately.
At this moment, Jiang Qingsheng had the same thoughts as Zhu Jinghong. If he did not let the emperor see his achievements, it would be in vain.
"The battle in the northwest will definitely break out next year. If the four northern guards are brought in, do you think we can fight a good battle?" Zhu Jinghong asked solemnly.
Faced with this question, Jiang Qingsheng did not reply immediately. After thinking for a while, he replied, "I dare not speak nonsense."
Although the new tactics are more lethal, they are not effective after all. After being tested in actual combat, Jiang Qingsheng did not dare to express his position easily.
His withdrawal really disappointed Zhu Jinghong, but he also understood Jiang Qingsheng's worries.
Without continuing to dwell on the matter, Zhu Jinghong said in a deep voice, "Let the flag signal be passed, the enemy attack on the east side, change the formation."
This is a temporary "examination question" set by Zhu Jinghong, but in essence, he is using the coordination Military power, through this subtle behavior, can make the army accustomed to obeying his orders.
In fact, Jiang Qingsheng didn't care about the reason at this moment. He immediately winked at the ordering soldier behind him, and the latter went down from the sentry tower to convey the order.
As soon as the order was given, the troops on the east side of the military formation began to move. The infantry formed a defensive line horizontally, and the artillery also adjusted its position to form a new fire coverage network.
"Good, very good" Zhu Jinghong, who was holding a telescope, praised it without hesitation.
At this moment, not far from the sentry tower, there were two people observing the changes in the military formation, with the same approval in their expressions.
As an expert, Wu Changhui, as a general in charge of the army, is also an expert at deploying troops and generals. At this moment, he naturally knows how powerful Yulin Left Guard is.
On the fourth day of December, the day before yesterday, Wu Changhui, who resigned as the commander-in-chief of Anxi Province, returned to Beijing.
On the sixth day of the lunar month, he was summoned by the emperor and scolded bloody in the Qianqing Palace. Then he was dismissed from all positions, leaving only his title and rank.
