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

"Or they could be the musketeers from the various forts below."

"Without exception."

"I think this is probably... not a coincidence."

"..."

The person who answered had a meaningful expression on his face, but there was a hint of confusion in his eyes: of course he thought that this was not a coincidence, but he definitely could not imagine what on earth could be done by putting such a group of people into the Alchemy Department?

——Organize a fire musket team? As the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty, it is very easy for him to mobilize a group of people to shoot fire muskets and bowl-mouth muskets.

Besides, shouldn’t the border be the place where these people are most useful?

He didn't understand.

Jiang Li was also baffled. He slowly nodded, acknowledging the man's assessment that it was "not a coincidence," but he frowned in confusion and muttered, "Armament Bureau...Arsenal...firearmsmen...what the hell is going on here?"

After thinking for a while, I found nothing.

Jiang Li could only shake his head helplessly - these things were not his business to consider, so it didn't matter if he couldn't figure it out.

Thinking of this, he raised his hand and picked up the pen on the table, and waved his left hand at the person in front of him: "Forget it..."

He was about to complete the last piece of information when he paused, as if suddenly remembering something. He asked, "Is there still no way to get any information out of the Alchemy Department? Not a single whisper?"

Having said that, a look of worry appeared on his face.

After disbanding, reorganizing, and carefully selecting and eliminating the Longxiong Guard and Huxiong Guard, he, the former commander of the Jinyiwei, was actually powerless?

The man shook his head: "Your Excellency, you also know..."

Jiang Li knew the answer to what the other party said without having to listen to the whole thing - it must be that they were still guarding it tightly and couldn't find anything.

He understood and immediately waved his hand again to signal the other party not to say anything more.

With a far-sighted gaze, he muttered to himself, "Your Majesty's methods... are truly overly meticulous..."

At the same time, he continued to pick up the pen, shaking his wrist, and completed the remaining information in front of him, then blew dry the ink on it, and sealed it together with the previous information, this issue of the newspaper, and the preview content of the next issue of the newspaper...

He said coldly: "Send it out."

The man took the thick information and put it away. Without saying anything, he just solemnly saluted Jiang Li and quietly retreated.

Looking at the door closed by the other party.

Jiang Li sighed deeply, his gaze far-reaching, and murmured softly, a voice only he could hear: "The court's revenue has increased, the inexplicable increase in troops to fill the sea, the massive increase in the budget for river repairs... and now there's new activity at the Alchemy Bureau... I thought last year's commotion was almost over, but now it seems they really don't have any time to rest."

……

After these days, the snow melted faster and faster. Whether traveling by land or by water on the Grand Canal, the environment became warmer, and the messengers could naturally travel faster and more conveniently.

Beiping City, Huang Mansion.

That afternoon, the gentle sunlight shone on the main courtyard of this three-story house. An old man in coarse linen clothes was lying on a rickety recliner. Although he was wearing coarse linen clothes, he was covered with a black fox fur cloak.

I don’t know if it’s because the afternoon sun is too bright.

The old man's eyes were covered with a piece of dead leaf of medium size, which just blocked the direct sunlight.

The exposed cheeks and corners of the mouth were slightly raised, and he looked like he was in a good mood and leisurely.

If this situation were seen by a certain "tyrant" in Yingtian Prefecture.

I don't know if I'll be so angry that I'll throw the jade seal on the dragon desk in front of him and shout, "Or you can do it?"

Yes, this leisurely old man is naturally the Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, who has now lived a natural and peaceful retirement life. Oh, no, his current name is Huang Shiliu.
