"Dongdong..."

"Dada..."

Various sounds sounded outside the imperial carriage. Emperor Chongzhen leaned on the cushion, and Xu Guangqi, who was following him, sat upright. He was not very clear about why the emperor chose to go out of Beijing to inspect Xishan during this special period.

The in-service honorary officials of the Beijing Guards, headed by Zhu Chunchen, and the Nine Gate Admirals' Office, headed by Sun Zushou, formed the escort team that accompanied him. Such a big disturbance would definitely cause trouble in the court.

But how could Xu Guangqi know that this was the effect Emperor Chongzhen wanted.

He wanted to raise the civil servants in the court again and again, and not use the excuse of not leaving the capital as an excuse to prevent him from inspecting outside the capital.

Although Emperor Chongzhen knew in his heart that the cost of leaving Beijing was very expensive and caused considerable harm to the local area, he would always stay in the deep palace of the Forbidden City, want to see the outside world with his own eyes and make corresponding adjustments.

It's a very difficult thing.

In the future, Emperor Chongzhen would leave Beijing for more frequent tours. At least he would have to walk around the various places under the rule of Northern Zhili. After all, this was the basic plan he planned.

All the expenses for leaving Beijing for inspection will be borne by the treasury, and local officials will be strictly prohibited from doing anything to welcome the driver in the local area. Those who violate this law will not say anything and will be removed from their official positions.

Even Emperor Chongzhen was prepared in his heart. When various new policies were implemented in the future, if the Jiangnan side was in trouble, he would have to lead the army to fight Jiangnan again.

After all, the privileged groups such as gentry, landlords, etc., who are too big to lose, firmly control various resources and channels in Jiangnan. The lower-level people have become the targets of their wanton exploitation. If they do not bleed to Jiangnan, then some diehards will not

It will give up.

Of course, such planning and deployment will not happen until five years later, or even eight years later, or even longer.

After all, if you don’t value creating a captive, reorganize important towns in the nine borders, and resolve the rebellion of bandits, you will try to promote the new policy on a large scale, which is undoubtedly a death.

"My dear, what do you think about the current court?"

Emperor Chongzhen put down the memorial in his hand, looked at Xu Guangqi and said, "Do you think the decisions I have made in the state dynasty these days are right or wrong?"

Xu Guangqi, who was sitting upright, felt nervous, but his thoughts became messy.

This question is hard to answer.

"Your dear, don't be so nervous."

Emperor Chongzhen saw Xu Guangqi's changes and smiled slightly and said, "We are the only monarch and ministers here. You can say whatever you should say. I want to listen to the truth."

Although Xu Guangqi advocated Western learning, he was also a pragmatic person and was devoted to the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Chongzhen would not ignore Xu Guangqi's talents because of these things.

Furthermore, it is necessary to absorb the essence of Western learning and abandon the dross of Western learning, so that the Ming Dynasty can also change it. This is still very necessary in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen.

The sea embraces all rivers.

China has always been inclusive and open.

However, in recent decades, the Ming Dynasty has entered the vicious circle of party struggles, and all the conflicts accumulated before erupted under the Little Ice Age.

In the third year of Chongzhen, there was still some rescue.

"Thank you to Your Majesty, from the perspective of your Majesty, these decisions made by Your Majesty are all strategies to benefit the country and the people." Xu Guangqi turned his eyebrows and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen.

"Whether it is to rectify the Beijing camp affairs, to rectify the Chongwenmen tax customs, or to the general river and warehouse affairs, to give the cabinet more authority, etc.

I understand that Your Majesty wants to rectify the court so that the chaotic court situation will be restored to a stable order. After all, the current state dynasty is full of internal and external difficulties.

Frequent disasters, raging bandit rebellion, covetous Jianlu, including tax problems in various places, etc., are all existences that cannot be underestimated..."

Xu Guangqi really dares to tell the truth.

But I like it.

Listening to what Xu Guangqi said, Emperor Chongzhen smiled. He was not afraid of court officials telling the truth, but was afraid of court officials joining together to deceive himself.

After all, he, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, is a high-ranking existence in the Forbidden City and the capital. But how many people recognize him without the center of power?

In the face of the general trend of the imperial power not going to the countryside, the various government orders that are not conducive to their own government orders are detrimental to their own government orders, including gentry, landlords and other groups, will they truly follow them?

"I can understand my intentions and my difficulties. I feel so comforted."

Emperor Chongzhen lifted his sleeves and said, "I have promoted my beloved to the cabinet, just to call me, so that I can share my worries with my country and the country.

In the future, we should put forward our own ideas and opinions on the cabinet, and not just put them on the responsibilities of the Military Preparatory Institute, Agricultural Science and Warehouse Affairs.

You must dare to express your own opinions on the cabinet side. The cabinet is not a one-man rule. Whoever says it right or who puts forward the ideas is really useful to the country, so you should strongly support it.”

The responsibility cabinet should be a powerful cabinet so that it can play its due role.

Previously, Cheng Ji ordered to bypass Han and others and come directly to ask for advice from him. This made Emperor Chongzhen very angry. What is the purpose of the cabinet minister who cannot stand from his own perspective and consider the problem?

"Your Majesty, the West has arrived."

Wang Chengen's voice rang outside the imperial carriage.

"Let me go with me, go to inspect the West Mountain and visit the Military Preparation Institute."

Emperor Chongzhen, who was in a good mood, stood up and looked at Xu Guangqi and said, "For so long, the Military Weapon Bureau and the Military War Bureau have almost all the plans to build here."

From now on, Xishan will produce more high-quality gunpowder, as well as powerful and reliable firearms and cannons for our Ming Dynasty.

The danger of Jianlu, I must end him!"

The following Jianlu is a question that Emperor Chongzhen must face. When the Ming Dynasty can revive and rise depends on whether the Ming Dynasty can suppress the Jianlu rebellion.

Only the ruling power that is exerted can shock the world.

Although the road before us is not that easy to walk, Emperor Chongzhen was full of fighting spirit. Isn’t this another form of conquest for the world?

Or I am a rebel myself.

Or the vested interest groups are rebels.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

Emperor Chongzhen, who walked out of the imperial carriage, saw the Xishan Musket Camp led by Huang Degong, knelt on one knee at him, saluted and shouted.

Song Yingxing, Jiao Xu, Deng Yuhan and other officials from the Wubei Academy bowed to him.

As for the people who accompanied him, they all bowed their heads and waited. This feeling of being admired by thousands of people made Emperor Chongzhen slowly walk down the imperial carriage with a smile.
