Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 418 Sister Hong's New Weapon
"How many cannons do you want?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked noncommittally.

"Of course, the more the better. But it is better to teach people how to fish than to give them fish." Zhu Zhen said eloquently: "Father, let me have a cannon-making yamen."

"Nonsense, the Military Weapons Bureau of the Ministry of Industry gave it to you, what should our army do, and we have to buy guns from you?" Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head decisively.

"I don't want the Military Weapons Bureau of the Ministry of Industry. I heard that there is also a cannon-making yamen in the 24 yamen of the inner court." Zhu Zhen hurriedly explained.

"Are you talking about the staff bureau?" Zhu Yuanzhang's expression turned pale.

The Bingzhan Bureau belongs to the Eighth Bureau, which specializes in the manufacture of military equipment and iron wares for palace use.Zhu Zhen grew up in the palace, so he naturally knew that the Bingzhang Bureau also made cannons for the Jing army to use.

In Boss Zhu's original design, the Jing Army was responsible for the security of the inner palace, so it was natural that they should be well-equipped.But after many years, I realized that it is pure nonsense to expect these eunuchs to have combat effectiveness.

So don't waste money on casting guns and armor for them.It is enough for one person to issue a knife and patrol at night as a security guard.

"Can the Bingzhang Bureau still make cannons?" Boss Zhu asked uncertainly.

"It should be possible." The prince was also not sure: "The cannon-casting craftsmen were not abolished, but they were only asked to cast bronze bells. It should be possible to change them back... right?"

"Okay, assign all the cannon-casting craftsmen of the Bingzhang Bureau to Shibosi." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, but added restrictions: "However, none of the others are allowed to move, or the palace will not even use a pair of scissors." I can't beat it with a kitchen knife."

"Understood." Lao Liu nodded.Secretly complained, shouldn't these things be purchased directly?Still need to make it yourself?

But thinking that their family can bake big pancakes with the Empress of the East Palace, and the Empress of the West Palace rolls green onions.It's normal to strike iron yourself.

"Besides, you have to raise the money for casting the cannon yourself." Boss Zhu added.

"I didn't count on the father either." The sixth child curled his lips.

~~
Coming out of Qianqing Palace, Zhu Zhen was still in a good mood.How else should I go to the leader if something happens?No, the problems of ships and guns have basically been solved.

"But you can't mess around." The prince reminded the sixth son: "Anyway, the Beiwa Fleet is the navy of the imperial court. If you really fight with them, the impact will be too bad!"

"Don't worry, big brother, I will pay attention to the impact." The sixth child said with a smile: "Don't your own people beat your own people."

"But don't be stupid, you have to wait until they make a move before you fight back. You will suffer a lot!" the prince instructed again in a low voice.

"Oh, I see." Lao Liu nodded happily.After all, the elder brother of the prince is still towards himself.

~~
At the same time, in Wan'an Palace.

Over there, Concubine Da Ding brought Lao Qi to visit the door to inquire about the crime.

"Look at your son beating my seventh son so hard that he can't even open his eyes!" Dashi pointed at the seventh's black eyes and said to Concubine Hu Xian menacingly.

"He always squinted his eyes." Concubine Hu Xian opened her eyes and said nonsense. "What does it have to do with our sixth son?"

"He did it, the crown prince saw it! Do you still want to deny it?" Dashi asked Hu Xianfei aggressively, "Just tell me what to do? If you don't give me an explanation today, I will go to the emperor to ask for an explanation! "

She won't find the queen, she has a grudge.

"Lao Qi, what does the crown prince say?" Concubine Hu Xian ignored Dashi and asked Lao Qi directly.

"Brother told me to go back first, and he cleaned up the sixth and vented my anger." Seventh replied.

"That's enough." Concubine Xian has assisted the empress in running the Six Palaces in recent years, and she is really good at it. "His Royal Highness will deal with it fairly, and it's not my turn to be troublesome."

"It's Concubine Ding, you don't always act like an old hen guarding chicks, so when will the child grow up?" Concubine Xian will no longer be a big rival, she has a more hurtful weapon— -son!
To be precise, he is a good son!

"It's not that this palace sells itself. Look, the sixth child is only half a year older than the seventh child. How much service has he done for his father and elder brother? Even the title of this palace, the virtuous concubine, was earned by him. Yes." Concubine Xian's words were like a knife, stabbing Concubine Da Ding's heart.

"You..." Concubine Dading's pretty face flushed with anger, and she almost wanted to vomit blood.She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists tightly, wishing to give this vicious woman a black tiger's heart out.

But the remaining rationality told her that if the two of them were tied together, they would not be the match of the female bandit.

Moreover, the other party's rank is much higher than his own, and he is the second person in the harem only under the empress.If she beats her, she doesn't need to ask the empress to support her, and she can get someone to beat her.

He could only stomp his feet resentfully, turned around and slapped Lao Qi: "You trash!"

Lao Qi's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, but now his injury was even worse, half of his face was swollen into a hair cake.Aggrieved, he whimpered and cried, turned around and ran out of Wan'an Palace.

"You wait for me, you see how I will deal with you!" Concubine Dading knew that if she stayed any longer, she could only bring shame on herself, so she chased her son away without even saying hello.

Walking to the gate of Wan'an Palace, I met Lao Liu who came to greet his mother and concubine.

"Yo, Concubine Ding, you are a rare visitor." The sixth child saluted Concubine Ding with a smile, not feeling guilty at all for beating the other's son.

"Hmph! His Royal Highness Chu." Concubine Dading looked the sixth child up and down, and said in a cold voice, "Didn't your elder brother clean you up? Why is your whole body intact?"

"Why didn't you clean it up?" Lao Liu said with a face full of pain: "You beat me, rolling all over the floor. It's mainly because the place where I was beaten is not convenient for display, so you can't see it."

"Hmph!" Concubine Dading didn't believe it, no one knew better than her what it would look like after the buttocks were punched.But she can't tell Lao Liu, I don't believe it, take off your pants and let me have a look.

So just hold on.

"Hmph!" With another muffled snort, Concubine Dading walked away without looking back.As for whether he will vent his anger on Lao Qi again when he goes back, it is probably certain.

"Old and angry will get wrinkles!" Lao Liu shouted loudly behind her, putting his hands together and mouth.

"I want you to take care of it!" Concubine Dading's changed voice echoed in the night.

~~
Entering Wan'an Palace, Lao Liu greeted his mother and concubine with a smile.

"Son, have you eaten yet?" Concubine Hu Xian didn't even mention what happened just now.

"I ate with the elder brother at the old man's place." After finishing speaking, the sixth child smiled and asked towards the gate of the palace: "Then the old lady came to trouble you?"

"Just her? Also worthy?" Concubine Hu Xian said triumphantly like a big rooster that won a fight: "It's not at the same level, you know?"

"Good guy, Sister Hong can use power to overwhelm people now." Lao Liu applauded and laughed, "This way I don't have to worry about being bullied all day when I'm outside."

"That's right, with my son supporting me, my mother is walking sideways in the palace!" Concubine Hu Xian said stinky.

"You'd better take it easy, and be careful that one day the queen mother will clean up." Lao Liu smiled.

"That won't be true. Mother respects Sister Ma from the bottom of her heart." Concubine Hu Xian shook her head.
