Xiao Feng entered the palace and brought with him the latest product of WTO, a copper cylinder.
Copper is very expensive, and Xiao Feng originally wanted to use iron instead, but the blacksmith repeatedly complained, saying that he had devoted himself wholeheartedly to the steelmaking business Xiao Feng had given him, and he really had no time to do this detailed work. It's not big, so just spend some money and make it out of copper.
Xiao Feng thought about it and felt that this thing did not need to be used in large quantities like steel pipes. It was indeed possible to use copper, so he followed suit.
Jiajing was very happy when he heard that WTO had new products. After all, he is the majority shareholder of the Blacksmith Shop of World View. However, he was very careful not to call other ministers to watch it together, because he was worried that the product would be immature and lose the face of his major shareholder.
Therefore, when Xiao Feng entered the Jingshe, apart from Jiajing, he only saw Huang Jin and Lu Bing. He smiled at the two of them and waved the copper pipe in his hand to Jiajing.
Lu Bing instinctively leaned forward and stood in front of Jiajing, and then realized that if Xiao Feng could enter the monastery, his whole body must have been searched. If the copper pipe in his hand was really lethal, the guards would not have allowed him to bring it in.
Xiao Fengchong curled his lips at Lu Bing, held his hands across his face, and handed the copper pipe to Huang Jin. Huang Jin took the copper pipe and looked at Jiajing.
"How do you use this thing? What's the benefit?"
Xiao Feng smiled at Jiajing: "Use your eyes to look in from the end with the pattern carved on it."
Of course Jiajing will not take risks. Although he trusts Xiao Feng, but what if, if the quality of this new gadget is unstable and something goes wrong, his eyes are long eyes and cannot be fooled...
"Huang Ban, look, what's so wonderful about it."
Huang Jin was waiting for this sentence. Of course he didn't care about taking risks for Jiajing, but eunuchs must know how to measure. This is a new thing. If you don't have the will of Long live, it would be rude for you to be the first to try it, even if you are well-intentioned.
Huang Jin lifted the copper pipe, put his right eye up to it, and closed his left eye without any guidance - it seemed to be human instinct.
Then Huang Jin put down the copper pipe with an incredulous expression on his face, looked at Xiao Feng blankly, raised it again, and waved his other hand in front of the copper pipe.
Jiajing was so tickled by Huang Jin's expression and movements that he couldn't help but ask.
"Huang Ban, is there something wrong?"
When Huang Jin was asked by Jiajing, he naturally turned to Jiajing with the copper pipe, and then was so frightened that he almost threw the copper pipe away.
"Long live the slave's offense and deserve death!"
Jiajing was very puzzled: "Huang Ban, what's the offense?"
Although it's a bit inappropriate to look at me with one eye, it doesn't seem to be offensive.
Huang Jin put down the copper pipe, breathed a sigh of relief, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Banzai forgive me, I thought I was standing in front of Banzai unknowingly just now."
Jiajing didn't wait for Huang Jin to explain anymore. He reached out for the copper pipe and put it on his right eye. Originally, Jiajing wanted to maintain a certain image, unlike Huang Jin, a carpenter who hung a thread in one eye, but the instinct in human genes was irresistible, so he naturally closed his left eye.
"This... what is this? Why is it like this?"
Xiao Feng, who seemed to be standing face-to-face, smiled in the copper tube and explained calmly.
"Brother, this is called a telescope, also called a telescope. It can be used to see the stars, and it can also be used in navigation.
But in fact, the greatest use of this thing is on the battlefield. Our Ming Dynasty currently has less cavalry than the Tatars, so it suffers greatly in field battles. If you can see further than the enemy and predict the enemy before you can, the victory or defeat can be reversed. "
The first telescope in history was born in the Netherlands in 1608. It would have to wait more than fifty years. History was rewritten at this moment.
Jiajing's hands were shaking with excitement, not only for Daming, but also for his own monastic career. In his opinion, the more good things Xiao Feng makes, the more credible his experience of studying abroad in the fairyland is, and the greater his hope for a great cause in Taoism!
After Jiajing got addicted to it for a while, he handed the copper pipe to Lu Bing, who was already eager to try it. Lu Bing controls the Jinyiwei. After all, he is half a military talent. He affirmed Xiao Feng's statement.
"When two armies are facing each other, it is crucial to know the location and movements of the enemy. This item is extremely valuable. Long live this item. I request an order to block the information about this item. It can only be transported by the Jinyi Guards to the frontline generals for use."
Jiajing nodded repeatedly: "Xiao Feng, don't make too many of these things, they should be used by the imperial court in a unified manner!"
Xiao Feng thought to himself, you ask me to produce in large quantities, but I don’t have the ability.
Zeng Zaoban took two young apprentices selected from the world view and worked day and night. These days, he could only grind out two pieces of crystal for me. Before the transparency of glass is greatly improved, it is impossible to mass-produce this thing.
But there was a look of embarrassment on his face: "Senior brother, the daily consumption of the blacksmith shop is very high. I can't recall many objects in the fairy book. If mass production is not allowed, how can the blacksmith shop be supported?"
Jiajing secretly scolded his junior brother for being shameless. How much money could those few blacksmiths and Zeng Zaoban, who had returned from retirement, spend? Is it possible that your WTO disciples can work as child laborers and still be paid?
However, Jiajing, the blacksmith shop, is the major shareholder, and the products produced by his junior brother are really good, so Jiajing is in line with the trend.
"This is an item related to the destiny of the country, and it is not the same as your native speaker. Of course, the price can be higher, and the Ministry of War will discuss the details with you."
With Jiajing's acquiescence, Xiao Feng was satisfied to put away his traitorous attitude. Then, it was time for him to reveal his true purpose.
"I, Xiao Feng, the Young Minister of Dali Temple, would like to ask Long Live to issue an order to allow me to enter the Yan Mansion to investigate the case!"
As soon as this was said, the scene fell into silence. After half a day, Lu Bing took the risk to remind Xiao Feng.
"Xiao Shaoqing, do you know what you are asking for?"
"I, Xiao Feng, the Young Minister of Dali Temple, would like to ask Long Live to issue an order to allow me to enter the Yan Mansion to investigate the case!"
Jiajing took a deep breath: "Do you have any solid evidence? Entering the Prime Minister's Mansion to investigate the case is no small matter. You have to think clearly. She is just a woman with no identity."
"Long Live, Shuntian Mansion may not have the right to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion, but Dali Temple has the right to enter the Mansion to investigate the case. It is only because it is the strict prime minister that it specifically requests Wan Live.
That woman is not without identity. I have found out that she is also one of the failed draft girls.
Long live Tianen, I have decreed that those involved in this matter will not be blamed. However, if someone still detains the failed draft girl, or even murders and silences her, it will be a crime of conspiracy.
I already have conclusive evidence. If I go into the house and find nothing, I am willing to be charged with being reckless! "
Jiajing closed his eyes and stopped talking. Lu Bing looked at Xiao Feng with complicated eyes. Xiao Feng kept bowing and saluting, motionless.
The only person still active in the room was Huang Jin. He opened the incense burner again and again, looking at the remaining incense inside, as if hoping that the incense would burn out quickly so that he would have something to do.
After a long time, Jiajing broke the silence.
"Junior brother, I know that you have old grievances with the Yan family. Yan Shifan's daily behavior is indeed to rely on his talents and sometimes go too far.
However, Yan Song was the pillar of the imperial court, with a high and powerful position and many disciples and former officials. It's a small mistake, and I'm confused sometimes, but I won't go into it. Just like you sometimes being wild, I never take it to heart.
If you insist on investigating, I can't abolish public affairs for personal reasons. But if there is no solid evidence in the investigation, although I won't blame you, I still have to give an explanation to the Yan family. "
Lu Bing and Huang Jin were both stunned, and exchanged looks with each other, quite shocked.
This is truly a heartfelt statement. Jiajing did not use the word "I" during the whole process, and bluntly admitted the existence of the strict party!
He was persuading Xiao Feng, advising him to be measured and tolerant, otherwise it would be difficult for him to blatantly protect Xiao Feng if the Yan Party counterattacked.
Jiajing agreed to Guo Jun's request and let Xiao Feng investigate the case. He must have wanted to beat the Yan family, but he didn't seem to be doing it too fiercely. If Xiao Feng can find out any clues that the Yan family is guilty, that would be the best, and Jiajing can take the opportunity to make the Yan family be honest.
Jiajing believed that with the ability of the Yan family, it was impossible to leave any solid evidence for Xiao Feng to seize. At most, it would end up like the case of the two kings, with a clear understanding and confusion on the surface.
But Xiao Feng is now directly attacking the Yan family. This is actually against the rules of official struggle. Jiajing was also caught off guard. He has been observing for so long. Although Xiao Feng is young, he is old-fashioned and not stupid. Why is he so restless this time?
You are young, why are you so anxious? I still have a use for the Yan family. You can just grab the food and eat it. Why do you have to lift the table?
What Jiajing didn't know was that Xiao Feng could tolerate the Yan family's corruption, the Yan family's dictatorship, and even the Yan family's suspected collusion with Japanese invaders. He had the time and confidence to slowly overthrow the Yan Party.
In history, the Strict Party would have been destroyed. Xiao Feng just did nothing and tried not to affect history. Maybe he could see this scene as the tide goes. It's nothing more than the death of a few more stupid loyal ministers.
But the only thing Xiao Feng couldn't bear was that girls as old as his daughter died tragically in front of him one after another. And he knew clearly that Yan Shifan was responsible for all this, but he just watched and didn't care!
He can endure it, he can wait, but every day he endures it, every day he waits, countless girls like him will die tragically in the hands of Yan Shifan and Yan Dang.
Lan Niang's back was the last straw that broke Xiao Feng's psychological defense. Although the time was not yet ripe, Xiao Feng was seventy percent sure and decided to overturn the table!
"Senior brother's love and care are deeply felt in my heart and I will never forget it! I will live up to my senior brother in this life!"
Xiao Feng spoke very emotionally, and his voice was a little choked. This wasn't completely false, he was really moved. He could tell from the looks in Lu Bing and Huang Jin's eyes that Jiajing had never been so heartfelt to them.
Jiajing and Lu Bing are friends, Huang Jin is a partner, and Xiao Feng has an inexplicable feeling similar to that of an elder brother towards his younger brother. This is the first time Xiao Feng has truly felt it.
"I, Xiao Feng, the Young Minister of Dali Temple, would like to ask Long Live to issue an order to allow me to enter the Yan Mansion to investigate the case!"
Some people died, but not completely...
