Daming: I really don’t want to be an emperor!

Is Zhu Yunxun crazy?

Is this going to allow the Huaixi Group to rise again?

He also abolished the Five Cities Military Command, returned the military power to the Ministry of War, let the Ministry of War coordinate the mobilization of troops across the country, and gave all the military power to the Huaixi Group?

What is Zhu Yunhuan going to do?

Mrs. Lu only felt a splitting headache, her eyes went dark, and she fainted again.

It’s over… it’s over…

There is no chance of a comeback.

"Mother! Mother! Mother!" Zhu Yunwen shook Mrs. Lu, feeling helpless, and had to summon the imperial physician again.

There is no one available in the East Palace.

Even if there is, who would listen to his orders as the eldest grandson of the emperor?

The people in the palace are the best at changing their attitudes according to the situation.

……

Inside the Arms Bureau.

Zhu Yunhuan looked incredulous. "You can only make five Hongwu cannons in a month? How do you manage to be the eunuch in charge of the Armory?"

"Your Highness, please calm down. Your Highness, please calm down."

Li An, the eunuch in charge of the Armoury Bureau, was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

"I want to ask you, what conditions do you need to build a thousand gates for me in a month?" Zhu Yunhuan asked.

It took only one month to build five doors.

This is too little.

"Your Highness, please kill me. No matter what the situation is, it is impossible to build a thousand doors in a month." Li An kowtowed.

"Then half off, 500 gates! I want to see 500 gates a month, money is not a problem." Zhu Yunhuan took a step back and said.

I also know that teaching a thousand courses a month is indeed a bit difficult.

After all, everything in this era depends on handwork.

"Your Highness, we can't even produce 500 guns. First, we don't have enough raw materials, second, we don't have enough people, and third, we don't have enough money. Now that we have enough money, we can only produce 20 guns at most a month, which is already the limit." Li An looked sad.

Make hundreds of them a month, do you think artillery is that easy to make?

"Are you kidding me?"

Zhu Yunxun said coldly.

Twenty courses a month, what can I do with that?

"I dare not." Li An was shaking like a sieve. The royal meal was too disgusting.

My life is in great danger.

"How many muskets can be produced in a month?" Zhu Yunhuan changed the subject.

"Eight hundred to one thousand a month. If there is enough money, we can make two thousand a month." Li An replied.

Zhu Yunhuan shook his head, "Not enough, not enough, what can this amount of money do?"

After hearing this data, Zhu Yunhuan's fear of insufficient firepower became more serious and he became more afraid. It was probably in the late stage.

"Your Highness, I have a way to make one hundred Hongwu cannons and three thousand muskets in a month." At this time, a weak voice came.

Zhu Yunxun looked over and asked, "Who are you?"

"I am a worker who makes gunpowder in the Armory Bureau. My name is Qin Shou." Qin Shou said.

"Beast? Do you have any idea to increase the production of firearms?" Zhu Yunhuan asked.

"The Armour Bureau has to produce armour, swords, spears and halberds, as well as firearms. The division of labour is unclear, and materials are supplied in priority to armour and weapons. This is why we can't produce many firearms per month. As long as Your Highness lets me take full responsibility for the manufacture of firearms and gives me enough resources, I can produce one hundred Hongwu cannons and three thousand muskets per month, no less!"

Qin Shou was kneeling on the ground, trembling at this moment.

He knew that he was courting death and that there was a high possibility that Zhu Yunhuan would drag him down and chop him off for usurping power.

But it is also possible to gain the favor of Zhu Yunhuan.

Whether it’s life or death, you have to take a chance.

"Are you seeking an official position? Or are you seeking wealth?" Zhu Yunheng asked, while also looking at this guy named Qin Shou.

"I do not seek an official position or power, I only want to fulfill my mentor's last wish. Firearms have come into being, and it will definitely be firearms that determine the outcome of future battlefields! Your Highness, please pay attention to firearms."

Qin Shou said boldly.

This is indeed a very bold statement. A commoner actually dares to discuss state affairs.

"Who is your mentor?" Zhu Yunhuan's eyes lit up. This guy actually has such vision! It can be seen that firearms will determine the outcome of the battlefield in the future.

Qin Shou replied, "My mentor Tao Guangyi was known as the God of Firearms. He served successively as the Commander of Ningwei, Vice Minister of the Ministry of War, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites and Tutor, and was awarded the title of Dazhong Dafu. He retired to his hometown and unfortunately passed away two years ago."
