Chapter 3 Thank you, Uncle
(First, I recommend the book "The Good Martial Artsman of the Great Song Dynasty", and you can go and have a look. The editor-in-chief said that it is a very good book. The author is also a very good person.)

"It is said that Duke Cao Li Jinglong!"
After the eunuch at the gate of the hall finished speaking, Li Jinglong quickly sorted out his clothes and hats, then turned around to give his son a straight coat and instructed seriously, "I'll see the emperor soon, kowtow more and talk less. If the report is not appropriate, go home and break your legs!"
As he said, he emphasized, "Break the leg!"
When Li Qi saw his father's stern eyes, he felt bitter and muttered, "I can't say I can't come, you insist on me. Why do you ask me to do? I originally agreed to take Qiu Jumeixiang and the others to the kite for a while. You must pull me into the palace and break my legs. I am your biological child. You break my legs and have a lame son. Are you happy?"
"My fuck..." Li Jinglong's eyes twitched wildly, and his forehead was covered with black lines. "Why did I give birth to you like this? The old Li family will be defeated by you sooner or later!" As he said, he looked at the eunuch leading the way, glared at his son fiercely and whispered, "Remember, if you lose your etiquette, I will do my best to beat you to death!"
Seeing that Li Qi looked like this, she shrank her neck and didn't dare to speak.
The two of them were walking in, and suddenly a person opposite had just retreated from the hall.
Li Jinglong saw it and said in surprise, "Brother Jingqing, why are you here?"
The person who came here was Jing Qing who had just passed away, bowed and smiled, "Your Highness has met Duke Cao!"
"What are we doing with these false gifts?" Li Jinglong laughed with his arms in his arms, "I just met the emperor?"
Jing Qing smiled and said, "Yes, I just told the emperor about some local affairs!"
Li Jinglong suddenly stepped forward and whispered, "Your Majesty isn't very happy?"
After all, Jing Qing was a person who had been an official for a short time. Even though he had some talent, he was not as good as Li Jinglong's words and was full of confusion.
At that moment, he spoke directly, "Yes, the emperor is not very happy when he hears it!"
Li Jinglong's face changed twice and continued to smile, "When will you go back to Beijing? Don't say hello to me? So, I'll be a party in the evening, and I'll call Xiao Jie to stop after we get drunk!"
"Thank you for your kindness, so I appreciate it. But there is still something important to do, so I'll rush back!"
"So anxious? I'm still thinking about gathering with you. We friends who are in love are from all over the world. How difficult is it to meet each other?" Li Jinglong felt sorry for him, and then kicked his son behind him, "Call him uncle!"
"Uncle!" Li Qi bowed and shouted without caring about it.
Jing Qing hurriedly avoided half of his body, "How does this make it?" As he said, he looked at Li Qi, "The son of Duke Cao, a handsome man, has a handsome face!"
"I'll give birth to a good skin!" Li Jinglong smiled, "Follow me!"
At this time, the eunuch at the door had already begun to urge him, and his eyes were floating around.
"I'll go see the emperor first!" Li Jinglong bowed.
"Please give me a gift!"
Li Jinglong took his son to the hall, and when he passed the eunuch who opened the curtain, he smiled slightly, "I'm a good father-in-law!" As he said that, his hands trembling slightly.
The eunuch only felt his eyes blurred, and his hands were already stuffed with a few heavy golden beans.

In the hall, Zhu Yunyu sat obliquely on the soft couch beside the window, holding a small copper pot in his hand, slowly watering several pots of orchids on the windowsill.
"My minister Li Jinglong, long live my emperor!"
As soon as he stepped in, Li Jinglong bowed a lot. Seeing that I was like this, his son hurriedly followed. Although this kid had a quarrel with him, he was now very panicked and his body was trembling.
Zhu Yunxi glanced at the father and son and continued to water the flowers, "You handed over the sign three times in a day. What's the important thing to see me?"
"Go back to the emperor!" Li Jinglong smiled, "My son is about to enter the Eastern Palace to serve as the prince's guard. I will bring him to see the emperor and listen to the holy teachings!"
As he said that, his elbow calmly hit his son with one elbow.
"My minister, Li Qi, long live my emperor!" Li Qi was still calm, suppressing the panic in her heart, and bowing respectfully.
"If you go to the palace to work, just go directly to the inner guards to make a name and just wear armor. What kind of Hadith?"
Zhu Yunxuan knew Li Jinglong's little thoughts well. He seized every opportunity to show his face on his face. For Li Jinglong, not seeing the emperor for two days means losing favor.
Zhu Yunxiu said, and then looked at Li Qi, "I went to the East Palace and stayed by the prince's side. Everything must be steady. The prince often makes trouble when he was young. You have to dissuade him, and you can't follow him, and you can't instigate him, do you understand?"
"I, follow the order!" As soon as Zhu Yunxi spoke, Li Qi's back was covered in cold sweat.
In fact, Zhu Yunxiu didn't agree with Li Jinglong's son coming to the palace to work with Liujin. It's not that he has any objections to Li Qi, but the key is that he has an inconsistent man!
As long as Li Qi has the ability to have three points of Li Jinglong, Liu Jin has not been surrounded by flattery all day long?
But now it seems that Li Qi is far less clever than his father!
Zhu Yunyu turned his eyes to Li Jinglong, put down the copper pot in his hand, and said, "You are in charge of the firearm casting bureau. Since the Chinese New Year, I have never seen you write a memorial, and I have never seen you write a memorial. Are you the boss there?"
"How dare I be negligent about the errands assigned by the emperor?" Li Jinglong said anxiously, "I did not submit a memorial because I have been bowing my head to do things!" As he said, he smiled, "The emperor asked me to go because I was asking me to do things, not to ask me to find out the problem and tell you to listen to you?"
"Oh? I lowered my head to do things?" Zhu Yunsheng smiled, "What have you done?"
"Since I took over the Foundry Bureau, I have made 680 large and small artillery pieces, including 262 to Jinghai Army, 300 shore defense artillery pieces from Ningbo, Guangzhou and Quanzhou, and the rest are distributed to King Han of Lelang County, Liaodong Dusi, and Yunnan border army!"
"There are also 892 muskets made by Hongwu, which were originally 1,300. However, because the work was too urgent and some craftsmen were not skilled, the caliber of the muskets was incorrect. So I did not ask the emperor for instructions and directly decided to return to the furnace!"
"All the muskets made will be delivered to the musketeers in Beijing!"
Zhu Yunxiu listened, without any expression on his face, but he was approving in his heart. He knew these data, and what Li Jinglong said was not bad at all. Li Jinglong is a utilitarian and is good at flattering, but he still trusts him when he should do things.
Especially the defective products made by Hongwu muskets, if ordinary officials dare not deal with them at will, they must ask for instructions and then ask for instructions. Only he can handle the matter directly, be responsible and determined.
However, Zhu Yunxiu didn't intend to give him a good face, "What I said is pretty good, but why did I hear that you are the boss, so I don't care? I heard that you haven't been in the foundry bureau once!"
Li Jinglong kowtowed, "When I go back to the emperor, I have only two constitutions in my mind. First, I focus on quality. After all, firearms are powerful weapons in the military. Second, they are to know people and make good use of them!"
"I am an amateur in forging things. So let it go and leave it to my subordinates. If I, an amateur, pretend to be an expert and point a point, then it is putting the cart before the horse!"
"I should pay attention to quality, manage logistics, make good use of available people, promote useful people, and let go of the emperor's painstaking efforts!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunxiu smiled, "You, this mouth is really!" As he said, he waved his hand lightly, "Get up and talk back, don't kneel down. The turtle is humiliated, bring two stools and let them sit and talk to me!"
"There is no seat for ministers in front of the emperor!" Li Jinglong smiled, then looked at his son standing like a wooden stake, and secretly slamming his elbow.
Li Qi's mind was filled with muddy, and when he saw the emperor, he looked like a puppet.
I was both frightened, scared, and a little excited. That was the emperor, that was the emperor!
At this time, he was criticized by his son and his heart was slightly clear.
At this time, the turtle came over with a stool.
Li Qi quickly took it and said, "Thank you, Uncle Wang!"
