Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

The captain took the token and, though hesitant, responded immediately: "I obey your order!"

After a pause, another captain standing next to him asked tentatively, "Excuse me Captain Zhang...was that carriage just now...for Your Majesty?" His voice was filled with uneasiness and awe.

Captain Zhang scoffed, "The Alchemy Division is a fortified place. Anyone who dared approach would have been slain by the Dragon and Tiger Guards' embroidered spring blades." He added, "Now that you know who's inside the Alchemy Division, you should be careful what you say and do."

"His Majesty……"

Get the exact answer.

Whether it was the three centurions or anyone else here, their expressions changed slightly, but they were all nervous in their hearts, curious and uneasy... What exactly did it mean to come to the Alchemy Bureau today?

The three centurions clasped their fists together and said, "Thank you, Captain, for your advice."

Captain Zhang nodded in the direction of the Alchemy Department and said, "Go ahead."

"Everyone, listen up! Line up! Move forward! Don't say what you shouldn't say, and don't do what you shouldn't do!"

"Yes!"

The three centurions gave a few instructions and issued an order. There were more than 500 people in the three centurions' offices. They all had serious expressions and were silent. The whole team moved in an orderly manner towards the Alchemy Department.

When we got to the door.

With the token they had just received, the Longxiong Guard at the door let them pass without saying a word. At the same time, there was a person who seemed to have been waiting for them at the door for a long time. He stepped forward and nodded slightly to everyone.

It's a bit strange.

This person wasn't wearing a Taoist robe as expected, but rather a standard craftsman's outfit—a craftsman? The Alchemy Department was where immortal masters refined elixirs. What was a craftsman doing here?

Of course...it seems even more unreasonable that they are a group of "coolies" and there are people waiting to lead them.

Without waiting for them to ask anything.

The man, dressed as a craftsman, extended his hand and gestured towards the interior, saying, "Please come in. The Alchemy Department has received His Majesty's order and has already set aside a place for you to use for your daily activities and work. From now on, all your daily activities will be carried out here and you will not have to leave the Alchemy Department again."

"But before that, I have to take you to an audience with His Majesty, so we still have to go this way first."

The craftsman who was responsible for leading the way explained calmly.

However, the craftsman's words... made the group of people a little nervous. The solemn atmosphere they had managed to maintain was instantly broken, and a burst of rustling and sighing sounds of disbelief arose:

"Your Majesty!? Your Majesty wants to see us in person!?"

Although they were the Jinyiwei on the surface, they did not actually participate in the work and actions of the Jinyiwei. They had the title of the emperor's close attendants, but they had never seen Zhu Yunhuan. At this moment, they were a little flattered.

"How could we, the little minions, deserve to be summoned by His Majesty?"

"How can you expect to be treated like this as a laborer?"

"Oh my God! What on earth are we supposed to be doing here in the Alchemy Department?"

"..."

We've just entered the Alchemy Department, but something is clearly wrong. Very wrong!

Most people's heads are full of confusion and question marks.

Although the noise, boasting and comparison outside just now have exposed the fact that "this group of people are related to the production and use of firearms."

however.

People like Feng Xu and Lin Yishan who were transferred from the Armament Bureau and the Military Equipment Bureau were originally in Yingtian Prefecture and worked for the central court. At the same time, they were not considered warriors who wielded swords and guns, but should be considered Beijing officials.

Those who are smarter and more perceptive can naturally see the current political situation of the court and make some guesses.

But most of them came from garrisons in various places.

In their cognition and world, the first thing they saw was war and the Ganyuan barbarians. They must have been very oblivious to the subtle relationship between Zhu Yunhuan and the Huaixi nobles. Even if they knew who the people in these three centurions were, it would be difficult for them to figure out what it meant.
