Su Jing's incomparable anger surprised both Zhu Xi and Mu Ying.
"Mr. Su, thank you for your kindness, but I won't bother you with this kind of thing."
Zhu Ping said very gratefully.
He was very happy that Su Jing could stand up for him like this, but it was really inappropriate for Su Jing to stand up for this kind of thing.
"Brother Wenying, I know you have to report to your adoptive father from time to time. The next time you report, remember to bring my words to him. He is really incompetent as a father."
Su Jing did not give up.
Mu Ying was helpless, but still nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Su, I understand."
Su Jing then nodded and said: "Okay, Niu Shuang, you did a good job this time. You must have such confidence in the future. You are not an ordinary person and you must be responsible. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Mr. Su, the student understands."
Zhu Ping nodded solemnly, his eyes firm.
Su Jing doesn't know what Zhu Ping will be like in the future, whether it will still be the same as the history she knows, but at least, Zhu Ping is already a positive young man now.
Su Jing looked at Zhu Ming, thought for a while and said: "Niu Shuang, the soap business is just a small business after all. If you really have an idea, you can imagine how to solve the big problem of Ming Dynasty's economy and how to make Ming Dynasty prosperous. Both the country and the people have become rich."
Zhu Fang is the king of Qin, and he will become a vassal in the future, which means he will be in charge of a large territory.
If Zhu Ping can really make some economic achievements, it will definitely be beneficial to Ming Dynasty.
"Students must try their best to live up to Mr. Su's expectations."
Zhu Fang bowed to Su Jing and already remembered Su Jing's words in his heart.
Su Jing really has high expectations for Zhu Ping. Zhu Biao is the prince, and the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty must have comprehensive abilities.
Judging from the current situation, Zhu Xi may be able to make some achievements economically, so let's push him in this direction.
Zhu Rui is a loyal lover of botany and focuses on scientific research.
Only when Lao Zhu's sons set a path for their development can Ming Dynasty truly become different.
Otherwise, it is simply not enough for people at the lower levels to have ideas.
"By the way, Niu Shuang, who is the biggest among those guys who pirate soap?"
Su Jing asked Zhu Xi.
When Zhu Xi told the whole story before, he did not tell Zhu Liangzu.
He really took Zhu Fan's warning to heart.
Originally, he was thinking that if Su Jing didn't ask, he wouldn't say anything, but now, if Su Jing asked, he wouldn't be able to hide it.
"It's Marquis Yongjia."
Zhu Xi replied.
Yongjiahou!
Su Jing frowned obviously, because this was very different from what he imagined.
Because Su Jing just asked casually, she was quite interested in a businessman who had the strength to buy so many soaps.
In the business of the Ming Dynasty, especially in the early years of Hongwu, were there any big businessmen?
Su Jing was also prepared for the possibility that it would be a name she had never heard of.
But I didn't expect that he would be a founding hero of the Ming Dynasty.
"Is it actually Marquis Yongjia?"
Mu Ying on the side was also very surprised, she did not expect that there was such an inside story.
Su Jing said: "I remember there should be regulations in the Ming Dynasty. Officials are not allowed to do business."
Mu Ying nodded and said: "Yes, officials of the fourth rank and above in the Ming Dynasty are not allowed to do business, but in fact, there are still many officials who do business secretly. As long as they don't go too far, Your Majesty will usually turn a blind eye. Close one eye."
If it were anyone else, Mu Ying would probably have said the first half of the sentence.
After all, not everyone can say something about the unspoken rules.
But the person in front of him was Su Jing, so he also said the second half of the sentence.
Su Jing was not surprised. Thinking about it, he knew that this kind of ban would be difficult to implement completely, just like Zhu Yuanzhang's anti-corruption campaign, which would not stop him until he died.
He didn't speak at this moment, searching for information about Marquis Yongjia in his mind.
There were many founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty. At first glance, Yongjia Hou was not impressed by Su Jing.
But soon, he found Zhu Liangzu’s information.
This guy was personally sentenced to death by Zhu Yuanzhang because of his evil deeds.
It's really interesting. Zhu Yuanzhang killed many founding heroes, and many of them were unjust, but Zhu Liangzu was really not unjust.
"Mr. Su! Mr. Su! Are you okay?"
Zhu Xi looked at Su Jing, who had been silent, and didn't know what he was thinking, so he shouted again and again.
"oh."
Su Jing came back to her senses and said: "It's okay, I'm just a little curious. It's a little surprising that a good Marquis would interfere in such a thing."
Su Jing has not yet connected Zhu Liangzu's behavior with herself.
After all, this was Zhu Xi's business, and he had only taught it before, but had no involvement in it later.
"The student doesn't know very well, but I heard that His Majesty has warned him."
Zhu Xi replied.
In his mind, he really didn't understand the twists and turns involved.
It was only after Zhu Fan mentioned it to him that he became aware of it.
"Then he's quite unlucky. He lost money and also got a warning."
Su Jing teased with a smile.
Thinking that this was an arrogant and domineering master, Su Jing started teasing him without any pressure at all.
…
Just after Zhu Xi visited Su Jing, Zhu Yuanzhang received the news from Fengxian Palace.
"The second brother is quite good at doing things now."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, quite agreeing with Zhu Ping's behavior.
However, before Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, Mu Ying had already arrived in front of him.
"Ying'er, how are you? Has Su Jing made any new firecrackers recently?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile.
Although he was very dissatisfied with Su Jing's attitude of refusing to become an official, Zhu Yuanzhang was very pleased with the new firecrackers that Su Jing came up with one after another.
The development of fire guns in the early Ming Dynasty was largely due to Zhu Yuanzhang's attention and promotion.
This is enough to illustrate Zhu Yuanzhang's love for fire guns.
Su Jing's behavior of improving the firecracker hit Zhu Yuanzhang right in the heart.
"Reporting to my father, Mr. Su did make a new type of firecracker, but Su Jing told his son that the manufacturing of firecrackers is very important, but the daily maintenance of firecrackers must also be regulated. Only in this way can we ensure that the firecrackers can be used even if they are several times. It can still function after years or even more than ten years without any problems."
Mu Ying said to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Regarding the importance of maintaining fire guns, Su Jing emphasized it to Mu Ying several times, and Mu Ying also took it to heart.
No, I have already mentioned this to Zhu Yuanzhang in person.
"Daily maintenance? Make sure it can still be used after more than ten years?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Indeed, this matter is quite important. The Ming Dynasty will last for thousands of generations, so it is natural to pay attention to the maintenance of the fire blunderbuss. So, did Su Jing tell you how to maintain it?"
Mu Ying immediately took out the firearm maintenance manual written by Su Jing from her arms and handed it to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately opened it and checked it. He nodded while looking at it, as if he agreed very much.
After all, the core of maintenance is to wipe it diligently to ensure that the firearm is dry and clean. Everyone knows the truth, but this is the first time that it has been maintained in a systematic way.
But as soon as it is done, any sensible person will basically know that this maintenance is very necessary.
"Not bad, Su Jing, this guy is really good at this thing. The power of the fire gun is important, but stability is also very important!"
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly, then looked at Mu Ying and said: "Ying'er, this maintenance manual, you directly in the name of the Metropolitan Governor's Office orders the Shenji Camp, the maintenance of firecrackers and artillery to be in accordance with this standard, and at the same time, a dedicated The maintenance department must implement this matter seriously."
"Yes, Father."
Mu Ying immediately nodded in agreement.
Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly startled because Mu Ying had no intention of leaving yet.
"What's wrong, Ying'er, is there anything else?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
Mu Ying raised her head and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Father, father should know about King Qin's soap."
"I know, my second son just went to see Su Jing. You must have been there at the time."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "What's wrong? Is there anything unexpected about this matter?"
Mu Ying paused for a moment, feeling a little hesitant after all.
If Su Jing asked him to take it, if he said it, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely be angry. There is no doubt about it.
"What's wrong? Ying'er, you're hesitant. I've never taught you to be like this, right?"
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, Mu Ying's expression really surprised him.
Mu Ying took a deep breath and finally made up her mind. He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Father, Mr. Su asked me to give you a message."
"Oh, what are you talking about?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked curiously.
Mu Ying said: "Mr. Su said that your father is too incompetent. The first time you treat your son is not pride, but suspicion."
As soon as the words fell, Fengxian Hall immediately became quiet.
Zhu Yuanzhang's face instantly turned extremely ugly.
Mu Ying immediately lowered her head, not daring to look into Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
"Ying'er, did Su Jing tell you this in person?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Mu Ying and asked while suppressing his anger.
Mu Ying replied: "It is indeed what Mr. Su said himself, and I must ask my son to bring this word to my father."
"Be bold!"
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his hand on the table and said angrily: "What qualifications does Su Jing have to discuss my family affairs? He is just a brat who has never even made a family, so he dares to say that I am not good? Who gave him the courage!"
Lao Zhu is the emperor, and the emperor's family affairs are state affairs.
Su Jing refused to become an official in the court, but talked about his family affairs here. Lao Zhu was really angry.
Mu Ying still lowered her head, very helpless.
He had already anticipated the consequences of this, but Su Jing had specially asked him to do it, and it was really impossible for him not to complete it.
"Father, I think Mr. Su just misunderstood my father. After all, he doesn't know that my father is very busy with many things to do."
Mu Ying said, helping Su Jing explain.
"snort!"
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and said: "Ying'er, you don't have to speak for him. I know what Su Jing means. It's just to complain to the second brother. But the second brother didn't say anything. Is it his turn to speak?"
"Besides, in this matter, Su Jing did meritorious service in teaching the second child, but the real manipulator is still the second child. Can't he really take all the credit on himself?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was very angry, and his words were very serious.
When Mu Ying listened, she felt something was wrong. He immediately said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Father, King Qin's soap incident is all thanks to Mr. Su's foresight and scheming. He anticipated all the situations in advance and He gave the solution and allowed King Qin to complete it smoothly. Mr. Su is indispensable for this!"
Although Mu Ying also felt that this was quite an exaggeration, it was said by Zhu Xi himself, so it could not be false.
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at Mu Ying and said: "Ying'er, what are you talking about? You mean, the reason why the second child can do this so perfectly is because Su Jing actually Everything has been planned out a long time ago, but the second child actually executed it?"
"Yes, Father, this is what King Qin said personally in front of Mr. Su."
Mu Ying nodded and replied.
Zhu Yuanzhang is a little confused now. Why is this matter so different from what he thought?
It’s understandable that Su Jing predicts things like a god, but to the extent that she predicts things like a god, is it an exaggeration?
"Father, I think Mr. Su did not intend to insult my father, and I would like to ask my father not to punish Mr. Su."
Muying struck while the iron was hot and pleaded with Su Jing again.
Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly embarrassed, but his anger remained.
"Insult me? Su Jing doesn't have the guts! Even if this is for the second child, it is still disrespectful to me. If he exposes it like this, it will be too easy for him!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly.
Obviously, with Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, it is a bit difficult to make him magnanimous.
But Mu Ying felt relieved. The more Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, the smaller the punishment would be.
"In this case, Ying'er, you go back and tell Su Jing that if the second son has any doubts in the future, he must answer them. Since he said that my father did not do well, let him replace me!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said sternly to Mu Ying.
Mu Ying was stunned for a moment after hearing this punishment. Is this considered punishment?
Although the imperial teacher of King Qin Zhu Xi was not as good as the prince's teacher, he definitely had another noble status.
"Yes, Father!"
Mu Ying immediately agreed, turned around and left, for fear that Zhu Yuanzhang would regret it.
As Mu Ying left, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression softened a lot.
"Su Jing, you are really courageous!"
Zhu Yuanzhang muttered to himself, as if his anger just now was all fake.
In fact, the reason is very simple. Su Jing's attitude towards Zhu Xi made Zhu Yuanzhang see Su Jing's sincerity.
Even facing herself as the emperor, Su Jing still said what she wanted and did what she wanted.
Instead of being afraid of yourself, you dare not say certain things.
Of course, Su Jing must have been angry when he said this, but Su Jing has indeed done a lot of meritorious deeds these days.
Not long ago, another Japanese pirate invaded along the coast of Shandong.
But under the power of Langxian and Yuanyang Formation, the Japanese pirates were defeated, which can be said to have greatly boosted the momentum of the Ming Dynasty!
Zhu Yuanzhang still wanted to report this news in the morning.
