Zhu Houzhao looked at the several people who were lying on the ground and being beaten, and his brows suddenly furrowed. These people had their pants taken off, and their buttocks were bloody and bloody.

Looking back at Zhang Yong, Zhu Houzhao slowly said: "How come you were beaten like this?" There was blame in his tone: "Don't beat anyone in the future. If you encounter someone like this, just ransack your home, confiscate all the property and fields, and then record him."

As a craftsman, there will be a shortage of people everywhere in the future, so we can’t destroy it, otherwise we will have nowhere to find people.”

Zhu Houzhao's tone was very soft, but it startled everyone. Some of the people lying on the ground jumped up immediately. Regardless of the fact that their buttocks were still bleeding, they kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao on the ground and kept mouthing.

Inside, they were begging for mercy loudly: "Your Highness, we don't dare to do it anymore. Please spare your life, Your Highness!"

The shouts were much louder than when they were beaten just now, and they looked much more miserable, which proved whose treatment method was more ruthless.

Liu Jin, who was standing behind Zhu Houzhao, took a step forward and yelled loudly: "It's embarrassing, pull them all down!" After hearing Liu Jin's words, someone immediately stepped forward and pulled them away, blocking them during the process.

Shutting his mouth saved them from howling.

Zhu Hou looked at Zhang Yong, and then said slowly: "Don't be scrupulous. If these people don't take care of themselves, they won't have a long memory. After this incident, everyone who takes on private work will do so!

"

Zhu Houzhao's tone was very calm, but what he said made people shudder. As the stewards of the Military War Bureau, they have privileges and usually bully these craftsmen. Take over the work outside and let these craftsmen do it for free.

Doing it, this is a normal thing for them, and it even delays the original business of the war.

Of course, this situation is not limited to the War and War Bureau. It is the same in all yamen throughout the Ming Dynasty, and the Ordnance Bureau of the Ministry of War is even more serious.

The situation in various local guardhouses is also more serious, especially for those military households, whose lives are not as good as those of craftsmen households. It can be said that they are not far away from slaves.

Zhu Houzhao naturally wanted to change these things, but it all took time. Zhu Houzhao was not that capable for the time being. He started with the eighth bureau, then gradually expanded to the six bureaus, and finally the most difficult military household at this time. To put it bluntly, Ming Dynasty just had no money.

, if you have money, you can recruit soldiers. What kind of military household is needed? If the country cannot support the army, then it will station troops.

Did the Ming Dynasty actually have no money? No, it was just that the court had no money and the emperor had no money, but Zhu Houzhao believed there would be.

Zhang Yong quickly bowed and said: "Yes, Your Highness, I have some concerns when I first arrived at the war station, but please rest assured, Your Highness, I will do my job well and never let Your Highness down!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded and didn't say anything. After pondering for a moment, Zhu Houzhao said: "I am going to make something here at the Military War Bureau. You come to Xianyang Palace tomorrow. I also ordered you. After looking around,

You did a good job, you can start working." Zhu Houzhao smiled and reached out to pat Zhang Yong's shoulder.

Liu Jin on the side was extremely jealous, but Zhang Yong was extremely excited, his face turned into a flower with a smile, and he quickly said: "I will do my best for Your Highness."

Zhu Houzhao nodded, then turned around and walked out. Zhang Yong was in charge of the military affairs bureau well, so he could safely handle his errands.

After leaving the Bingzhan Bureau, Zhu Houzhao went to the Wine and Vinegar Noodle Bureau, and finally went to the Siyuan Bureau. The Siyuan Bureau was responsible for growing vegetables and fruits for the palace. If Zhu Houzhao planned to build greenhouses in the future, then these people would be It was the best choice. After walking around for a while, Zhu Houzhao was still satisfied. He returned to the Forbidden City before the sun went down.

Wandering to Kunning Palace to grab some food, when Zhu Houzhao arrived, my father and mother were preparing to have a sweet world together.

My mother has no symptoms of pregnancy anymore, she has eaten a lot, and her face has become much rounder. My father is waiting on my mother to eat. Zhu Houzhao is completely impressed. His parents are true love, and his son is an accident. Zhu Houzhao is very touched. .However, Zhu Houzhao had been busy all day, so he just ate a lot and was very happy.

After eating, Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Youtang walked into the Qianqing Palace together. After taking a look at his son, Zhu Youtang asked with a smile: "Did you go for a walk today?"

Zhu Houzhao nodded: "I have been thinking about making money, so I will go for a walk first and see if I can do it."

Zhu Youtang naturally knew about his son's making money, so Zhu Youtang decisively changed the topic: "It's the Chinese New Year, go out less and make more noise, and spend more time with your mother when you have time!" After saying that, he stopped leaving. , Zhu Youtang pretended not to hear his son's subtext. Even if you are an emperor, you have to learn to play dumb! This is a basic quality.

Zhu Houzhao looked at his father's back speechlessly, but he still followed him with a smile. Didn't he just want some start-up capital? As for that?

After following his father to approve the question papers for a while, Zhu Houzhao went to Xianyang Palace. Since the beginning of winter, there have been less and less things in the court, and there are not many question papers. This has also reduced the workload of the father and son. However, he no longer had to work late as before, and Zhu Youtang could have more things to do with Empress Zhang.

After returning to Xianyang Palace, Zhu Houzhao did not go to rest immediately, but began to prepare his business plan.

It is absolutely necessary to make glass. The Ming Dynasty has no shortage of people who can make glass. When Zheng He went to the West, he brought back a lot of craftsmen and materials who could make glass. Of course, Zhu Houzhao felt that this was because these craftsmen admired the Ming Dynasty and voluntarily He offered his secret recipe and volunteered to follow the Ming Dynasty's fleet on a pilgrimage to the Ming Dynasty.

The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was entrusted with the destiny of Heaven, and everyone in the world admired him. He wanted to spread this greatness and let everyone in the world believe in this greatness.

Zhu Houzhao nodded with satisfaction. Now that we have craftsmen, it will be easier. The Bingzhan Bureau has a professional firing furnace. It can bake high-transparent glass and make windows at the same time. Mirror, I guess the price of copper will plummet, and maybe the court will not be so short of copper coins.

But there is never enough copper. Copper is also used to make cannons. Why is there not enough copper? Where can we find more copper?

In addition to glass mirrors, we can also make some other things, such as making iron stoves. Winter is coming soon, and the charcoal pots are too dangerous. In order to benefit the people, we have to make iron stoves. Although there is no patent law, this thing is very fast. It will spread out, but Zhu Houzhao doesn't care much. He is the prince. With this iron stove, many of his people can point to this as a way to survive.

The forging and use of iron stoves will also promote the coal mining and iron smelting industries. Speaking of coal mining, there seems to be coal near the capital, and there seems to be a coal mountain? Why does this coal mountain sound so familiar?

I roughly wrote two planning documents. Zhu Houzhao didn't pay much attention to the iron stove. That thing had no technical content. It could be made by a blacksmith without any difficulty. Glass has technical content, so the confidentiality system must be sufficient.

You have to be strict, which is why Zhu Houzhao asked Yang Peng to do things in Dongchang while others get out of the way.

Looking at the plan he had written, Zhu Houzhao nodded with satisfaction, then turned around, stood up and stretched, preparing to go to bed.

This time, Zhu Houzhao slept until he woke up naturally. After getting up, he still practiced martial arts. Zhu Houzhao never stopped. The stretched tendons made Zhu Houzhao look stronger and stronger. After breakfast, Zhu Houzhao did not go to the morning court today.

, nothing happened, Zhu Houzhao got tired of standing around every day.

"Is Zhang Yong here?" Zhu Houzhao asked casually when he handed the silk handkerchief for wiping his face to Liu Jin.

"Go back to your highness, the people are here!" Liu Jin cursed Zhang Yong in his heart because he broke his leg on the snow and couldn't come. Unfortunately, he failed. Now he has no expression on his face, but he still cursed Zhang Yong in his heart.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said with a smile: "Then let him come in!" After saying that, he sat down and picked up the tea cup and took a sip. It tasted good. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Yong who followed Liu Jin in. Zhu Houzhao waved his hand.

He signaled him to excuse himself, then nodded and greeted him: "Come on, come closer!"

Liu Jin on the other side had an ugly expression on his face. He wanted to kill Zhang Yong in his heart. Jealousy made me angry.

Zhu Houzhao didn't pay attention to Liu Jin's expression, but said to Zhang Yong: "This time I have given you two errands!" As he said that, Zhu Houzhao took out two plans, and at the same time there were also some plans about burning.

The secret recipe for glass was something Zhu Houzhao read about in his previous life. The article seemed to be called "A Few Things You Can Do Back in Ancient Times", and one of them included burning glass.

It's just that this kind of thing can be passed by after seeing it, and no one will really remember him. But after time travel, Ge Dan's body has been greatly strengthened, and his memory has been greatly developed. These things

They can all think of it in detail, so Zhu Houzhao can come up with very detailed processes and recipes.

Zhang Yong also listened seriously. He knew that this was his opportunity. Once he did things well, he would definitely gain the trust of His Highness the Crown Prince and might be able to surpass Liu Jin.

Compared with Liu Jin, Zhang Yong's fate was not bad. Zhang Yong entered the imperial palace during the Chenghua period. During the Hongzhi period, he was transferred to the East Palace to serve the crown prince Zhu Houzhao. When the crown prince succeeded to the throne, he became a confidant of Ming Wuzong, holding many positions and

He was the errand officer of the 12th Regiment Battalion and the General Shenji Battalion, and was a member of the "Eight Tigers" of the eunuch group of the Zhengde Dynasty at that time.

Zhang Yong was originally a party member of the eunuch Liu Jin. Later, conflicts arose due to dissatisfaction with Liu Jin's behavior and he beat Liu Jin. Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty personally persuaded him to make peace.

Later, when he was quelling the rebellion of Anhua King Zhu Zhixiu, he accepted Yang Yiqing's suggestion and used a strategy to eliminate Liu Jin. After Ming Shizong succeeded to the throne, Zhang Yong was impeached and deposed. In the eighth year of Jiajing, Yang Yiqing and others presented a memorial to vindicate Zhang Yong, and then

He was appointed to be in charge of the imperial prison and admiral of the group camp. In the same year, Zhang Yong died of illness. After Zhang Yong's death, he ordered three altars to be sacrificed and the coffin was placed. The relevant departments handled the funeral and built a memorial hall. The great scholar Yang Yiqing wrote an epitaph for him, and later

Record the legacy.
