Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty

Zhu Houzhao looked at the blood-stained rice paper and deeply felt the grief and anger in the heart of Emperor Hongzhi back then.

This is a shame in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

Since then, the emperors of all dynasties have always wanted revenge, and this shame must be paid for with the blood of the enemy.

Zhu Houzhao placed the blood-stained rice paper carefully, and then said with a firm look, "This blood debt, I will make them pay for this blood debt!"

"And the face-to-face change of Tumubao will never be staged again. Father, your wish will definitely come true for you!"

The queen mother heard the words, nodded with relief, and said with relief: "Zhao'er, with your words, the ancestors will know it, and they will certainly help you realize your wishes."

"Zhao'er, from now on, mother will never care about anything in the court."

"From today onwards, you are already a manly man, and your mother believes that the Ming Dynasty will return to glory in your hands."

"After this time, Ai's family raised flowers, fed fish, and listened to ditty songs among the officials. It was also a pleasure in life."

Zhu Houzhao knew that what the Queen Mother did was to reassure herself, and she could also let herself go.

The queen mother was willing to take out the photo of the late emperor, affirming Zhu Houzhao's ability to go to court.

Zhu Houzhao stood up slowly and thanked the Queen Mother.

Zhu Houzhao left Cining Palace and immediately went to Xuanzheng Hall of Qianqing Palace. He wanted to check the secret passage that Emperor Hongzhi said.

Inside the Xuanzheng Hall.

Zhu Houzhao scattered the surrounding eunuchs and palace maids, and he was the only one left in the huge palace.

According to the posthumous photo, under the seventh slate to the right of his throne, he tapped this slate lightly, and there was a beeping sound inside.

But the voice was very small, if it wasn't for the posthumous photo inside, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find this deep secret passage at all.

"It's really hidden." Zhu Houzhao said in amazement.

At present, although the entrance to the press has been found, Zhu Houzhao has no intention of digging the secret passage.

This secret is known only to the emperors of all dynasties, and no one else knows it. He will also plan to keep this secret.

Of course, Zhu Houzhao didn't plan to open this secret passage in his life, he planned to keep this secret hidden.

As for the landfill, he will not do anything that will cut off future generations.

If there is a day when the imperial power of Daming is subverted, he will let the queen and his children leave, and then he will monopolize the enemy's army.

It's his sentence: the emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies.

Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Zhu Houzhao returned to the bedroom and stared deeply at the map on the wall.

Since the change of the Tumu Fort, although the Ming Dynasty was said to have been hit hard, it still has a good geographical advantage. The development in recent years has allowed the Ming Dynasty to recover from the previous trauma.

At the same time, the foreigners outside Datong Mansion were also waiting for the opportunity.

The temptation of the Central Plains has made Oara, Tatar and other foreign races no longer coveted this piece of fat all the time.

Daming is recuperating, Oara and Tatar are also doing the same thing.

Once they have the right opportunity, the iron hoof of the grassland will step into the Central Plains, and the people of Daming will suffer.

Zhu Houzhao's eyes flashed with cold light, he was not the Emperor Yingzong of the year, and the current Daming is not the Daming of the year.

Now, as long as the monarch and his ministers are single-minded, after several years of recuperation, the economy has developed, and the military can still be as brilliant as it was back then.

As long as there is a chance in the future, he can still drive his troops to the north, and he will be ashamed.

.....

In the Ministry of Industry Office.

The servant Li Suide was ordered by the emperor to step up the development of Daming artillery and ships.

Emperor Zhengde did not hesitate to allocate a large amount of money, which is enough to show that the emperor attached great importance to this matter!

As for the warship, all the latest development methods are adopted, and Qi Jingtong is speeding up the development.

As for Daming firearms, Li Suide has spent a lot of effort, and now it has reached a critical stage.

"Sir, this cannonball has been developed, but it has already cost the imperial court a lot of money, isn't it a bit uneconomical?" an official asked slightly embarrassed.

Li Suide nodded slightly, and a rare sad expression appeared on the denomination.

The new type of gunpowder has been developed for a long time. If he can't give His Majesty a satisfactory explanation, then his position as Minister of Industry should be vacated.

But this form of firearm is difficult in the most critical step, that is, the development of artillery shells.

It can be said that these shells are all made of pure gold, that is to say, what is fired is white silver.

This shot is worth 10,000 taels of gold.

Even a big war costs far more than this.

However, the shell effect of this form of weapon is very significant.

According to the drawings given by the emperor, Li Suide polished the top of the shell to a cylindrical shape, and its range was greatly increased by several times.

With this form of firearm, the distance of about thirteen miles has been reached.

"Have you tried other materials?" Li Suide asked.

The official nodded slightly and replied, "Master Hui, I have tried all kinds of methods. I have used iron materials and lead materials successively. Although this material can be made like this, it is more prone to explosion. Case."

"Although the lead material at the back is fine, once three or four guns are fired, the chamber of the gun is too hot, it is easy to jam, and the body of the bullet is easy to melt."

When Li Suide heard the words, there was a trace of deep thought in his eyebrows, and he quickly asked: "What about brass? Have you tried it?"

"Since gold is a metal, but it is very expensive, then brass can be used instead. Give it a try!"

When Li Suide said this, all the officials present widened their eyes~www.wuxiamtl.com~ said eagerly: "Let's try it now!"

Throughout the afternoon, there were bursts of noises from time to time in the entire Work Department.

Li Suide ran everywhere, and said with a serious face: "Everyone, everyone, this matter is related to the national strength and future of my Ming Dynasty. I hope you will do your best, and don't be neglected!"

"Please don't worry, my lord, I will do my best to do it!"

Li Suide nodded slightly and looked at the busy craftsman attentively.

At dusk, Minister of Industry Li Suide hurried to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

I saw him walking up quickly, bowing to Zhu Houzhao and seeing him: "My minister Li Suide, meet your majesty!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly and said, "Aiqing is not polite, I came to see me this time, but this form of weapon? Is there any progress?"

Li Suide nodded excitedly, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, although the price of this brass is not low, compared to gold, iron, and lead, this brass is the best."

"Okay, that's great!"

Zhu Houzhao heard the words, his eyebrows also showed an excited look, and he said loudly: "The appearance of the new artillery represents the future and national strength of my Ming Dynasty. Aiqing is very important and must not be sloppy."

"You must also consider the possible criticism of this new firearm, and you must solve it from the root cause!"

Li Suide respectfully bowed: "The minister obeys the order!"

Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly and said, "You step back and make arrangements, but I want to see with my own eyes, how is the effect of your time?"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Li Suide bowed his hands and hurriedly exited the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao also walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation and stood on the city wall, looking down at the capital under the night sky.
