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

He silently complained in his heart, but responded helplessly: "Your Majesty, it seems... that makes sense." Although he was speechless, he still felt that what Zhu Yuanzhang said seemed to be correct.

He glanced cautiously at Zhu Yuanzhang, who looked a little lost and worried.

He quickly rolled his eyes and tried to console him, "Perhaps this Alchemy Division... isn't just a place used to manufacture firearms as a cover-up. Who says a place can only have one use? Perhaps... it's used to refine pills, manufacture firearms, or even both? Then, Your Majesty, you can still enjoy the elixir."

Hear this.

The worry on Zhu Yuanzhang's face finally disappeared.

His heart knot eased a little, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "What you said is not impossible. After all, he has recruited many Taoist priests, alchemists, and alchemists with great fanfare. It's obvious that he really wants to make elixirs. This doesn't seem like a pretense."

"That's all."

"Whether the Alchemy Department is really refining elixirs or not, our opinion is not final. I will wait until I return to Yingtian Prefecture and see for myself what is going on."

Speaking of this topic, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to suddenly think of something. His expression, which had just relaxed, tensed up again. He took a deep breath and said, "Hiss... respond to Tianfu... Tsk!"

Lu Wei slowly added tea to Zhu Yuanzhang's cup while asking, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

He gasped and was shocked. It seemed like a big deal, but he was quite confused.

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head in disappointment and sighed deeply:

"This kid... he's still thinking about using muskets and muskets in the Yingtian area! We do want to go back to Yingtian, but we don't want to return to a place that's devastated, with walls and houses completely destroyed!"

Yes, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and was shocked...that was exactly what he was worried about!

The prerequisite for him to go back is that the Huaixi nobles and the little wolf cub turn against each other, but looking at the current situation... once the little wolf cub feels the pressure from the Huaixi nobles, he will immediately take out these city-destroying weapons to work!

Once these things go off, there's no real way to predict where to hit them. The entire capital and Zhili region will suffer, and it will be random!

"When I come forward, even if the little wolf cub is forced to rely on the reputation of the resurrected Hongwu Emperor, I will recognize my identity and let me be the Hongwu Emperor again..."

"But by that time, Yingtian Prefecture had already become dilapidated."

"What kind of a jerk are we supposed to be, the Hongwu Emperor?!"

Over the past twenty years.

Zhu Yuanzhang worked diligently to run the Ming Dynasty, but he also restored Yingtianfu, the place where the emperor lived, from desolation and destruction bit by bit, and made it prosperous bit by bit.

It was not only the prosperous capital city he built, but also his home.

It’s no wonder that Zhu Yuanzhang felt distressed.

"Uh..." Lu Wei swallowed his saliva. He really couldn't say a word of comfort about this hidden danger.

He had truly seen the power of muskets, especially bowl-mouth muskets.

A single shot could smash a hole in the city wall, what could he do?

All of a sudden.

The courtyard, bathed in afternoon sunshine, fell silent again. Zhu Yuanzhang sat motionless with a frown on his face, apparently thinking about how to respond.

But he concentrated on thinking for a long time.

In the end, he just sighed softly, as if he was at his wit's end, and shook his head, sighing, "No, no... This situation is really hard to control."

"Even if you want someone to persuade him..."

“Neither of them is very good!”

"Little Wolf Cub has been extremely cautious in carrying out this matter. I'm afraid even his closest confidants may not know the full details. We have the advantage that Jiang Li still has some influence within the Jinyiwei and has been able to gather information on the personnel transfers at the three Hundred Households. That's why we were able to come up with this..."

"If someone were to persuade him..."

"Anyone who goes there will be walking into a trap. I'm afraid that as soon as I say this, this ruthless little wolf cub will throw me into the alchemy furnace to make pills."

Even if Ren Hengtai were to speak out about the Ministry of Revenue's budget, nothing would be revealed. But if this matter were to be brought to Zhu Yunhuan's attention, it would be like saying to him, "Hey! I've been monitoring you, spying on you, and keeping an eye on your movements. What's wrong?"

As Zhu Yuanzhang continued speaking, he became restless again and stood up, letting the recliner sway behind him.

I stood up twice, the first time out of excitement, but this time out of anxiety.

"Why hasn't he given up on his plan to use fire blunderbusses and blunderbusses against the Huaixi nobles?"

"I've already been to the Ministry of Revenue warehouse to see these things firsthand..."

"How can you still have such naive thoughts!?"

"..."

In a fit of rage, Zhu Yuanzhang began to become a little irritable. He complained about Zhu Yunhuan in a scolding tone, and paced back and forth like an ant on a hot pan.

"Yes, he hasn't actually fought on the battlefield. He's only seen others use it a few times in the Ministry of Revenue warehouse. He's never used it himself, let alone seen its effects in actual combat. What the hell does he know?"

"In terms of military affairs and combat... we really overestimated him."

"When I first saw him confidently threatening the Huaixi nobles, I really expected him to come up with some unexpected trick. It turns out this is his trick..."

"This brat..."

"He is determined to tear our Yingtian Prefecture to pieces!"

After thinking about it for a long time and finding no solution, Zhu Yuanzhang cursed angrily.
