When Fang Xing and Zhu Gaochi were talking about the power of cannons in the East Palace, a eunuch came outside.

"Your Highness, you have agreed on artillery matters just now and cast a hundred gates in advance."

Zhu Gaochi smiled, and the other party woke up, "Since that's the case, those who can do it will work harder and do the work of casting cannons well."

Fang Xing returned home and discussed this matter with Huang Zhong in the study.

"Brother, if this artillery prospers in the army, then the status of Jubaoshan Guard..."

If other troops have greatly increased their strength, the status of Jubaoshanwei will indeed be reduced.

Fang Xing said lightly: "Jubaoshan Wei was originally the Taisun's personal army. He went on wars many times and won many times. If this continues, everyone will be jealous. What's the use of a high status?"

Huang Zhong felt relieved when he thought about it: "Yes! Jubaoshan Wei was just a partial army before, but this time he independently wiped out the Jiaozhi family, which is a bit too powerful."

Jubaoshanwei is so powerful that others will feel that Zhu Zhanji is a bit overwhelming.

Fang Xing threw out the cannon at this time, which immediately made the military's emotions decline and cooled down the jealous military achievements of Jubaoshanwei.

"But Jubaoshanwei is not winning simply by muskets."

Fang Xing said playfully: "Discipline, strict and orderly practice, and the use of tactics are not something you can learn easily."

"As for sea transportation, it is not actually appropriate at present."

Fang Xing said with some displeasure: "Zheng He has come back. It is said that the expense of repairing and replacing the ship just makes Xia Yuanji want to hang himself. If I propose to resume shipping at this time, it will be a matter of disregarding the people's livelihood and the overall situation. What the wise do not do. Some people even hope that I will take the initiative to propose, and that at that time it will be a reason to attack."

Huang Zhong nodded and said, "That's true. Your Majesty will definitely be unhappy at that time. After all, he will be involved in Zheng He going to sea."

"Brother, why are you pushing the cannon out at this time?"

Huang Zhong was a little puzzled.

Fang Xing smiled: "Jubaoshanwei has been jealous for a long time. I fired the cannons at this time, just to cut them between civil and military officials. When the copper mine in Jiaozhi is mined in large quantities, I don't have to say anything at that time. First, Xia Yuanji will be the first to jump out and ask for shipping on the sea. Secondly, the martial artists. If they want a large number of cannons, then help Xia Yuanji reduce the cost of copper materials first."

Think about it, if you simply use a horse carriage and a ox carriage to pull the copper material from Jiaozhi to the Central Plains, the consumption of people and animals along the way will definitely make people cry.

"Besides... Wu Xun seems to have been closer to the civil servant recently. This is not good, very bad!"

"Take it slow, don't think about everything happening overnight. What we need is patience because... I'm young!"

Huang Zhong praised: "Mr., your layout is like an antelope hanging on its horns, and there is no trace to be found. I have to wait until the time comes to know. Those people in the court may not understand what you mean."

"Who knows!" Fang Xing smiled slightly, his eyes full of calm.

Hu Guang, have you guessed it?

"I don't know what he wants to do, I only know that shipping will never be prosperous again!"

In the room, Hu Guang and Yang Shiqi were drinking tea to discuss matters.

Yang Shiqi felt a little upset, so he put down the teacup, "Mr. Hu, this cannon is a weapon after all. Xing Hebo's move may be to get closer to Wu Xun and save the cracks of the last time the Oirat mission intercepted."

Hu Guang lowered his eyes and said, "Shiqi, your vision is still not enough!"

This was a bit harsh, because Hu Guang's successor was Yang Shiqi, so he was a little surprised when he heard this.

"Please tell me clearly, Lord Hu." Yang Shiqi bowed.

Hu Guang's eyes looked at the door without any focus and said slowly: "Fang Xing is planning to transport sea for the purpose of the overseas plundering he advocated, but have you ever thought that even if the country is big, it will perish if it is wary. My Ming Dynasty finally settled down. Seeing that the prince and grandson are all like wise rulers, Fang Dehua is going to make a fuss at this time, he is too young!"

"Although shipping is good, it will encourage the ambitions of the people. If shipping is prosperous, have you ever thought about it? It is a situation where industry and commerce are booming and people are interested in it."

Hu Guang said seriously: "I have no grievances and no grudges with Fang Xing. What I do is just a different Taoist tradition and political views. If he is restless, I will naturally suppress it. If not, according to his plan, the people of the Ming Dynasty will no longer be simple!"

Yang Shiqi agreed: "If the people are simple, then great governance will not be difficult."

Hu Guang raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Can't I call Dazhi now? "

Yang Shiqi said in surprise: "Of course, no matter whether it is civil and military achievements, the Ming Dynasty today can be compared with all dynasties. Lord Hu made an indelible contribution."

Hu Guang said with relief: "If later generations can call this time a prosperous era, I will die without regrets."

Assisting the wise king to create a prosperous era is the ultimate dream of literati.

Hu Guang felt that he was already on the road to this dream, so whoever dared to destroy his dream was the enemy of life and death.

Hu Guang stood up and pushed open the window. The autumn wind blew, making him feel floating and full of energy.

Turning back, Hu Guang said proudly: "Your Majesty has decided to build a hundred doors first. This matter has been settled. The plan of awakening has failed. I don't know if I am upset at this moment, hahaha!"

Of course Fang Xing was not upset. He was also blowing the autumn wind, but he was on the recliner.

In the inner courtyard, Fang Xing lay alone on the chair. Looking at the stretched eyebrows, Zhang Shuhui felt that she was asleep, so she tiptoed into the inner room.

Xiaobai was also sleepy, his head was bit by bit, and the bells around him were lazy. When he saw Zhang Shuhui coming in, he didn't even shake his tail, opened his eyes and closed it, even if he had greeted the mistress of the family.

In spring and autumn, the whole family was taking a nap, but Zhu Di had just finished lunch.

"The combination of civil and military affairs is the emperor's taboo. That man is helping me! Zhanji, what benefits did you say to him?"

Zhu Zhanji had not figured out the twists and turns inside, and looked confused.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Seeing his grandson confused, Zhu Di couldn't help but smile happily.

"don't know?"

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "Grandpa, grandson really doesn't understand."

Zhu Di stroking his beard and said happily: "Some people say he wants to use this to seek sea transportation, some people say he wants to please Wu Xun, but that man is just taking revenge."

"revenge?"

Zhu Zhanji felt that he really didn't understand, it was just a matter of artillery, so how could he involve so many things?

Zhu Di was in a good mood, so he told his grandson about the story here.

"Last time, your second uncle was transferred away, leaving him alone in Jiaozhi panic and has nowhere to rely on. If he hadn't let someone mess up the water in advance, would you think he could come back?"

Zhu Zhanji was shocked. Fang Xing said the Battle of Jiaozhi a few days ago, but now after saying this, he realized that Fang Xing had experienced such a crisis in Jiaozhi.

"If he moves slowly, those wealthy families will be powerful. At that time, his few people will be able to calm the rebellion, not to mention quelling the rebellion, it would be good to be able to save the north."

"Grandpa Emperor, then...If Jiaozhi is lost, I am not the Ming Dynasty..."

Zhu Zhanji felt that Zhu Di's thinking was too weird and could actually let Jiaozhi fall into such a situation.

Zhu Di's eyes were slightly warm and he said warmly: "Zhanji, if Jiaozhi is in chaos, it will just allow your second uncle to return to the army and completely clean up Jiaozhi from top to bottom."
