Chapter 176 ready to cut

The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty were immersed in the joy of Liu Daxia’s return, but Zhu Houzhao was thinking about something else.

At present, the power in Liaodong has basically stabilized. Wang Shouren drove all the Jianzhou Jurchens into the large and small Xing’an Mountains. The rest is to wait. As long as winter comes, those Jianzhou Jurchens will all freeze to death.

The winter in the Northeast is extremely cold, especially at this time, when the third small ice age in Chinese history is coming.

Now, the problem that Zhu Houzhao is facing has instead become a problem of internal worries, that is, the various vassal kings.

Unexpectedly, the number of generals at his disposal was pitiful.

When he inspected the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he was surprised to find that the Chinese officials in the court were indeed full of talents, and he could give him an idea by pulling out any one, but the generals were few and far between.

It seems that to deal with these vassal kings, the current manpower and resources are far from enough. It is the best strategy to select and cultivate some talented and capable people from these new generals.

The main event in the DPRK recently is the training of generals, and these generals can only be found from the Five Armies Protectorate. It is not easy to select four or five generals who can be used.

As for just receiving the decree from the Queen Mother, Zhu Houzhao felt that it was not the time for the harem draft and the decision of the queen. He was only sixteen years old and did not want to talk about the matter of reproduction.

Since the last time Qi Jingtong reported to him that the Guandong vassal began to imitate the Daming artillery, his heart has been a shadow.

This vassal king is not easy to deal with!

The Ming Dynasty has a lesson from the past. The living example of Emperor Yongle Zhu Di is there. If it is not eradicated, it is estimated that there will be endless troubles.

Inside the Qianqing Palace.

Yu Huatian is dressed in pure white clothes, like a lotus flower that Ling Han alone on the top of the mountain. At this time, he was kneeling at the feet of Zhu Houzhao, after hearing Zhu Houzhao’s reprimand.

“I asked you to visit the folk kings, how is it going?”

“If you go back to Your Majesty, the minister has already checked all the details, and according to the data reported by various places, it is consistent with the data retained by Daming.”

“Well, well done!”

As for the two supervisors of Dongxi Factory, if he has nothing to do on weekdays, he basically does not announce them, because they are the two sharp swords of Daming, and generally do not need to be easily unsheathed, but sometimes they are in danger. At the juncture, the sharp sword was drawn, but once the sword was unsheathed, it had to see blood!

Today, Zhu Houzhao is going to try this sword. After the last setback, is he getting old now?

The entire Qianqing Palace is full of cold killing intent. Since Zhengde took the throne, the problem of corruption of ink in the DPRK has been rectified by means of killing. Although some corrupt officials have been killed, the interests of a vassal king have not been touched from beginning to end.

In the later land reform, the vassal kings of various places intervened more or less in national policies, but, however, this did not touch the fundamental interests of those vassal kings. On the premise that Zhu Houzhao’s interests were not violated, the imperial court also One eye closed.

But now, it is not as simple as implementing new reforms and abolishing the old system, but these vassal kings are likely to change.

A fifteen- or sixteen-year-old emperor, some veteran vassal kings, really couldn’t take him seriously. If the reform does not stop every day, the position of the Daming monarch is likely to be unstable.

However, I can’t find a reason to cut the vassal now. Listening to Qi Jingtong’s words, isn’t this King Lu the best idea to start with?

Zhu Houzhao sat on the dragon chair, and said to Yu Huatian in a deep voice, “As far as I know, King Lu has a lot of firearms hidden in his house. , but it’s actually more than that.”

“During the period of time I was out, you were too comfortable. The seat of this factory owner…”

Once the emperor has something important, he always likes to talk about people’s vital interests. This is also a means of people using others.

After Yu Huatian listened to it, there was a little sweat on his forehead.

“Your Majesty, please calm your anger, Your Majesty told the minister that all things have been done as expected, and I dare not be a little slack. Please also ask Your Majesty to investigate!” Yu Huatian was already sweating, he did not expect Zhu Houzhao to speak. Speaking of his weakness.

After a pause, Zhu Houzhao continued: “King Lu’s fief is in Xifengkou, and the local supervisor and the governor are not doing their due diligence. I have already ordered Qi Jingtong to investigate.”

“However, there must be some people in the DPRK who are insiders. What I want you to do is to find out all these officials in the DPRK and let them tell the purpose of King Lu’s making artillery and buying the navy.”

“This time, if you don’t move, you’re done. If you understand, I will root it out!”

“Do you know what I mean?”

“Returning to Your Majesty, His Majesty has already said it clearly enough, and I will obey the Holy Order!”

Do not talk much, it has always been the nature of Yuhuatian.

After listening to Zhu Houzhao’s instructions, he got up from the ground and bowed out of the Qianqing Palace.

Since the feudal lord can secretly manufacture arms and form his own army, in addition to the support of local officials, more is the support of the court insiders.

If there is no inner ghost, how can they know the method used by the court to make arms?

Besides, if there was no supply from the ghosts in the court, where did King Taruk come from so much gunpowder and iron tools? For so many years, the arms of the imperial court have been strictly controlled. You must know that the royal family has always been very strict in the management of arms.

Originally, Zhu Houzhao wanted to summon the ministers of the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War and other ministers together to find out the supply of firearms, but he thought about it. Wang is alert, and eventually it will fall short.

If you wake up the tigers while they are taking a nap now, things will be troublesome later.

Sitting on the dragon chair in the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houzhao’s handsome face showed the spirit of an emperor. Although this young man was only sixteen years old, he showed the demeanor of an emperor in his gestures.

At the same time, in Hulong Villa.

The iron **** Hou Zhu ignored the rumors that the court had already attacked the vassal king.

He already knew everything about what happened to Shen Wanqian before~www.readmtl.com~. The reason why he didn’t kill him directly was because His Majesty thought that Shen Wanqian was a talent.

However, knowing the person and the face but not the heart, who can guarantee that one day he will also be liquidated?

What Shen Wanqian said was quite right, it was still too late to recruit troops and prepare to rebel, not to mention how majestic this young prince was, the fact that he was decisive in killing was enough to make people tremble.

Zhu ignored and stared at the ceiling. He really couldn’t think of any way to get rid of the shackles of the imperial court. The only thing he could do was to earnestly bow his head to Zhu Houzhao. You can’t even blink your eyelids.

Zhu ignored it and thought for a while. If His Majesty made the first move, would he be the first to deal with it?

Thinking of this, Hou Zhu, God of Iron Courage, felt a chill on his back.

Turning around and looking around, no one was around.

His four disciples, Shangguan Haitang, are now missing, and Duan Tianya is also a little disheartened. These two disciples are basically in a state of depression now because of their emotional damage.
