The Prince Consort is not worth a fortune

"Why are you so hurt like this!" Xie Xiaowan looked at her husband's hands that were bandaged like crabs, and her eyes were red with pain.

Xu Jin hurriedly smiled and comforted: "It's just a slight damage, it's not a problem. If you don't believe me, please ask for three shots."

Xie Sanqian smiled and said, "That's right, if it were me, there would be no need to bandage this injury. What's the big man's bleeding? It's up to what it's like to bandage now, the girl is joking!"

Xie Xiaowan poked her brother's forehead and said angrily: "Stop talking sarcastic words. You have been practicing martial arts since you were a child, so your brother-in-law is not as sarcastic as you."

Xu Jin said with a funny look: "My wife, do you look down on your husband. If I dare to let my hands and feet three times, I will definitely beat him to become the fourth pig-headed elder."

The girls burst into laughter, and Xie Xiaowan couldn't help but give her husband a blank look. Xie Sanqiang said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, that's not necessarily the case. Just like you are now like a Crab King, maybe I don't need to use my hands and feet and turn you over with my butt."

In the early spring and early summer, she couldn't help but giggle with her little mouth. Xie Xiaowan gave her younger brother a thunderous sound and said, "The wings are hard, right? Otherwise, if you gesture with your sister, what's the point of bullying your brother-in-law and the weak scholar."

"Okay, okay, I've heard that the wife has good martial arts skills for a long time, and I've wanted to see her for a long time." Chu Xia was afraid that the world would not be able to clap her hands and scream.

"Yaaaa..." The little guy in the arms of the beautiful maid Yue'er also danced with her hands, which made everyone happy.

Xie Sanqin scratched his head and said, "Forget it, it's embarrassing to lose. If you win, you will probably be cleaned up by your second brother." After that, he smiled and slipped out of the house.

Xie Xiaowan was worried after all, so she carefully took off the gauze on Xu Jin's hand. After checking that it was indeed not serious, she felt relieved. While bandaging it again, she pouted and said, "My husband, just leave the firearm test to the people below in the future. There is no need to do it yourself. It's okay this time, if it's next time..."

The little girl said that the eyes turned red again, and Xu Jin quickly promised that there would be no next time. In fact, it was indeed quite dangerous today. If it exploded, it would be possible to get blind. She was really careless.

As soon as Xie Xiaowan changed hands for Xu Jin, a maid walked in with an invitation from [Liangcheng www.lcds.info] and said, "Master, Duke Wei has posted you a post."

Xu Jin stretched out the "crab claw" and took the invitation and opened it. It turned out that Xu Pengju, Duke of Wei, asked him to go to Zhuxueju to discuss things after get off work. He probably discussed the "Tiger Cup" on the fifth day of next month. He nodded and said, "Tell the person who sent the post that I will go to the appointment on time!"

The maid agreed and retreated.

Next, Xu Jin went back to his room to take a nap. As soon as he got up and finished washing, the little emperor came to the door and brought the imperial physician Li Yanwen.

Xu Jin couldn't help but say in surprise: "Why is the emperor here?"

Zhu Houcong said angrily: "I heard that you were injured by a firearm, so I brought the imperial physician to show you."

Xu Jin couldn't help but suddenly realize and smiled easily, "Your Majesty, I'm just a skin injury."

"Stop talking nonsense, Doctor Li, treat Jing'anbo's injuries." Zhu Houguan waved his hand without saying a word.

Li Yanwen walked forward with the medicine box on his back and said, "Mr. Xu, let me see your wound. Firearms are different from ordinary weapons. It's better to be careful."

Xu Jin had no choice but to stretch out a pair of "crab claws". Li Yanwen carefully untied the gauze and picked it up and checked the wounds, then disinfected and applied medicine again, and then bandaged it with clean gauze.

"Doctor Li, how is Xu Jin's injury?" Zhu Houguan asked.

Li Yan heard the tribute and said, "Go back to the emperor, Jing Anbo's injury is not serious. He has not damaged his muscles and bones. He will recover in a while."

Zhu Houcong felt relieved when he heard this, waved his hand to signal Li Yanwen to retreat, and curled his lips and said, "You can do it yourself if you try the firearms, now you have to suffer."

Although this sounds like a gloating, it is actually out of concern. Xu Jin's heart is slightly warm and he smiles and says, "Where is the emperor who learned that I was injured in the test firearm?"

Zhu Houcon immediately showed a hint of pride. After returning to the palace last time, he scolded Zhu Hong, the commander of the Jinyiwei. Later, the Jinyiwei became more active in collecting information. Today, Xu Jin tried a gun and exploded the chamber in the military battle, so the news reached Zhu Houcon's ears at noon.

"Hehe, my Jinyiwei is not a decoration. By the way, how has the flintlock rifle been developed? If the craftsmen in the military battle are not good, then I will issue an order to transfer people from the Military Weapons Bureau."

Xu Jin hurriedly said, "That's not necessary, the initial results have been achieved. If the replacement is not good at this time, it will be better. Just like changing generals in the last battle, this is a taboo. Don't worry, the flintlock rifle will definitely be equipped with 500 battalions within this year."

Zhu Houcong naturally believed Xu Jin and nodded after hearing this, "That's good, by the way, I have good news to tell you that the Folang machine cannon has been built in Kyoto (Nanjing) and has also participated in the naval battle of Tuen Mun Island. According to the memorial of Guangdong Haidao Deputy Envoy Wang Wei, the power is very impressive. I have issued an order to cast 500 gates, and the combat power of our Ming Navy will be greatly improved by then."

Xu Jin was overjoyed when he heard this. When Zhu Houfeng drove the Florian tribute envoy Pires away the two years ago, Xu Jin was worried that Florian would send troops to invade the coastal areas of the Ming Dynasty, because the Florians did invade China's coastal islands many times in history, attempting to force the Ming Dynasty to open up trade, and Macau was occupied by the Portuguese.

Now that the Folang machine cannon has finally been developed, even if it is not as powerful as the original one, it will at least be greatly reduced. By then, the Ming army navy will not suffer such a loss when it faces the foreign gunships.

"Then I want to congratulate the emperor on obtaining this powerful weapon!" Xu Jin said.

Zhu Houcong also looked joyful and smiled: "The drawings of the Fran machine cannon were also presented to the emperor's brother by Xu Qing. I originally planned to give them a reward, but the old guys disagreed and said that the emperor's brother had already rewarded Xu Qing back then, and he would be punished for one crime and not two rewards for one merit."

Xu Jin smiled and said, "That's true. The late emperor had already appointed his ministers to try the Jiangxi Provincial People's Court for this matter."

Zhu Hou said frustratedly: "Although that's it, I feel that this reward is lighter, not to mention your talent and knowledge, if you end up participating in the provincial examination, it would be difficult to get rid of the first name and Jie Yuan."

Xu Jin couldn't help but sweat secretly. If he really came to participate in the provincial examination, it would be unknown whether he could pass the provincial examination. Jie Yuan didn't even have to think about it.

"By the way, it's better for me to confer Sister Xiaowan as Princess Yongxiu!" Zhu Houcan said with a clever inspiration.

Xu Jin was startled and hurriedly said, "No!"

Zhu Houxiang said in surprise: "Why?"

Xu Jin coughed lightly and said, "That... I don't want to be the prince consort for the time being!"

Zhu Houcon suddenly realized that it was a rule that the foreign relatives could not participate in politics. Although Sister Xiaowan had a different surname, it would be different if she was named a princess. Those who are interested would probably seize this point of attack and make Xu Jin withdraw from the officialdom.

Although I figured this out, the little emperor was still a little unhappy and muttered: "Is my Ming Dynasty prince consort so worthless?"

Xu Jin couldn't help but sweat secretly. Speaking of the princess of the Ming Dynasty, it was really worthless. As long as a young and handsome talent with ambitions was unwilling to run for the princess. Because marrying a princess is equivalent to marrying a grandmother and returning home to offer sacrifices. The emperor's sister, do you dare not give up? You have to be careful when you socialize and go to brothels, let alone take a concubine. The most important thing is that marrying a princess is equivalent to losing your career.
