"The new honorary is not allowed to resign, and Zhang Yongjia is given a posthumous title. Sure enough, it is impossible for a king to take the initiative to be bound by etiquette!"
Zhao Jinmei slapped the "Di Bao" in her hand on the stone table in the pavilion and said to Wu Weiye.
Wu Weiye laughed because of this: "I told you not to read "Di Bao", but you insist on reading it. The more you read this thing, the more disappointed you will be!"
Zhao Jinmei sighed and said, "That's why I say that the king cannot be expected to take the initiative to obey the etiquette system."
"Be careful!"
Wu Weiye put down the tea cup in his hand, looked around the pavilion, and whispered: "The knife is in someone's hand, what else do you want to do, is it possible that you don't want to die?!"
"Ding Gong and others have done this a long time ago, but it's a pity that it's useless. To be honest, our Ming Dynasty is different from other countries. The country is too big, there are too many people, and most of them make a living by farming, so the theory of light business is still popular. Even among our scholar-bureaucrats, there are still many people who believe that the current collapse of rituals and music in the world is caused by the development of business. In comparison, even the tyrant is more business-oriented than them. When these people are local officials, they often regard businessmen as swordsmen. Fish and meat, slaughtered at will, are not as good as that tyrant. That tyrant set up a bank to provide low-interest loans to ordinary merchants to help them get out of trouble, and even provided military support to merchants going overseas. Therefore, merchants who really dare to risk the disaster of the nine tribes and take risks Not much!”
Zhao Jinmei said.
"This statement makes sense, so we can only try to figure it out! Now this emperor is as smart as Shimiao, and he knows how to measure things. He doesn't go too far with business or the people. They say that governing a big country is like cooking small dishes. He can be said to have mastered it. He is a proficient man, and on the surface he looks decisive in killing, but in fact he is always taking advantage of the situation and trying to limit his power. It is difficult to reach the sky! He can only wait for the king of future generations. If the king of future generations is more cruel and selfish than him, then he will It will cause the whole world to rebel. If the kings of future generations govern the country with kindness and benevolence, there is no need to rebel, but they can also be planned slowly, as long as there are no emperors like today."
Wu Weiye said.
Zhao Jinmei nodded: "That's exactly the reason! It's a pity that the East Palace has not been established yet, so we still can't know the temperament of the East Palace in the future! Everything is still unknown, and everything can be done."
Wu Weiye said: "What I really want to know now is whether our emperor will make any long-term plans again. Don't underestimate him. In the past, the princes underestimated him too much, and even looked down upon him. I was confused by his cruel behavior and mistakenly thought that this person was just a lunatic who did things regardless of the consequences. But now I think about it, this person is far superior to all the princes in the court in terms of will, knowledge and mental skills, and now he has set up a large official camp. Hehuangzhuang created millions of government-employed workers, set up a Western factory to collect taxes, increased commercial taxes and tariffs, and reformed the vassal system. All vassals stayed in Beijing and began to participate in some internal and external affairs. Haiyu has set up bases all over the world, and now he has destroyed Donglu, and uses this to reward meritorious officials and cultivate new nobles;
Next, he will not be able to calm down and will make other moves. It is said that knowing yourself and the enemy will lead to victory in any battle. If we want to return the world's scholar-bureaucrats to their previous status as superiors, we must anticipate the enemy and know what he is going to do next. do what. "
After hearing this, Zhao Jinmei took a sip of tea and said solemnly: "This tyrant is a good chess player. Back then, Mr. Xiuwu and others suffered at the hands of his previous tricks. No one thought at that time that this tyrant would set up Like the other twenty-four yamen of the inner court, the internal work supervisors had ulterior motives for engaging in strange skills and tricks. They just thought that he was just like Shimiao and had personal interests. But who knew that this strange skill was even more powerful than alchemy! The world situation has undergone great changes because of this!"
…
"As I expected, after the steam engine appears, new things will emerge one after another, and the world will undergo earth-shaking changes! For the country, opportunities and challenges coexist, and we must seize the opportunities and overcome the challenges!"
Zhu Youxiao is now speaking in official dialect on the first steam locomotive of the Ming Dynasty.
Since the emergence of the steam engine, Zhu Youxiao asked the technical talents of the Academy of Engineering to step up the development of steam locomotives and allocated a large sum of money.
Now, the first steam locomotive has been successfully tested in Nanhaizi.
After Zhu Youxiao found out, he immediately decided to try it himself.
As soon as he boarded the steam locomotive, listening to the roar of the train and seeing the trees on both sides receding, Zhu Youxiao said this.
And, he said it from the bottom of his heart.
"Your Majesty is right. However, some officials have said that the steam locomotives in the Nanhaizi area are too noisy, which may disturb the gods and lead to divine punishment. Therefore, I request an order to stop the trial operation of the steam locomotives and not to go against the will of heaven. Your Majesty. The ticket is intended to say that Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, a god, and the Lord of China. If the Emperor is not aware of his disturbance, it means that the gods are not aware of his disturbance either."
Liu Hongxun, who succeeded Xu Guangqi in charge of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Industry, the Academy of Sciences, the Academy of Engineering, and the General Administration of Ordnance Manufacturing, replied.
After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao smiled and nodded and said: "You are silent, you have strange power and chaos. You are planning well like this. Before the steam locomotive appeared, there were many natural disasters. It can be seen that natural disasters have nothing to do with it. These conservative ministers always In this way, they have a blind attitude towards new things, and even if they can't give a reason to object, they will always associate it with natural disasters, and they don't know where they are qualified to speak on behalf of the gods."
Although the current steam locomotives of the Ming Dynasty are not fast, they can indeed run smoothly.
Zhu Youxiao was quite satisfied with it after riding it once. What made him even more satisfied was that electric lights were installed on the motorcycle.
The electricity used in the lamps is provided by silver-zinc batteries.
Silver-zinc batteries are voltaic batteries, which are not difficult to make. As a time traveler, Zhu Youxiao had already asked people from the Academy of Engineering to create this thing.
As for the electric light, it is a bamboo filament electric light.
Zhu Youxiao was a time traveler. Naturally, he didn't have to explore the best filament material like Edison, so he directly used bamboo filament, which was Edison's final choice before the emergence of tungsten filament in history.
Because of this, Zhu Youxiao saw the light emitted by electric lights in a dark car for the first time in this world.
This also allowed Zhu Youxiao to start planning to lay railway trunk lines in the future to better connect the entire China together, and to prepare for sending troops to Mobei and even Siberia in the future.
"I decreed to the Ministry of Industry that the official road where the steam locomotives run be named a railway. First, recruit a group of migrant workers to lay the first railway between Daning and the capital in order to better transport the coal mines there in the future. Entering the pass will also facilitate the transportation of military supplies within the pass to Liaodong, and it will also facilitate the future march into Mobei and strengthen control over Liaodong!"
Zhu Youxiao then issued such an edict to Liu Hongxun, and added: "Let those Eight Banners nobles who are still serving in the service continue to form an engineering team to do the most tiring and dangerous work. I will delay the execution time for a while. Let them sweat more before they bleed!”
"According to the order!"
…
Huang Taiji, whose face was as dark as ink, was pushing a cart of coal out of the coal area when he saw several low-level officials from the Ming Dynasty standing in front of him.
Huang Taiji was so frightened.
Because he thought he was about to be taken away by Ling Chi, his legs gave way and he fell to the ground with the car and the people in his car, his eyes full of fear.
