at this time.

Zhu Youxiao had already lived in Daming Park and only let a Grand Secretary Xu Guangqi do business in the park and think about the steam engine with him.

Since Bi Maokang invented the crucible steelmaking process, the Ming Dynasty has entered a new era of steel, which has laid a good foundation for the manufacturing of the Ming Dynasty's steam engine.

Zhu Youxiao issued an order a few years ago to start developing a steam engine.

Moreover, according to Xu Guangqi's report, with the efforts of Song Yingxing, who had been summoned by Zhu Youxiao to Beijing to be promoted to an official of the Academy of Sciences, the manufacturing of steam engines had made major breakthroughs some time ago. Many problems encountered in the manufacturing of steam engines were solved due to the improvement of various materials.

Now, Zhu Youxiao is in Damingyuan and is trying to make the first steam spinning machine successful in manufacturing.

In order to succeed in manufacturing as soon as possible and to enter the steam industry era of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao also personally participated.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao basically handed over more internal affairs reform to Yuan Keli.

But this does not mean that Zhu Youxiao knew nothing about the outside world.

As Zhang Xuan expected, Zhu Youxiao didn't know, but just didn't intervene in person.

But what Zhang Xuan would not know is that Zhu Youxiao chose to hide behind the scenes because he was content with peace of mind.

But because Zhu Youxiao wanted to numb those who resisted the collection of new commercial taxes and did not come forward in person until the end, which would affect the success of the reform of new commercial taxes.

"Emperor, the East Factory did not arrest King Jin and others according to your instructions. Therefore, this morning, on Chongwenmenwai Street, His Highness King Jin and some powerful people did organize slaves and merchants to unite bricks and axes, ambush the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Commerce and the Xichang Banner School, and also killed and injured many officials. The Governor of the Xichang Chamber of the People's Republic of China. The Xichang Chamber of the People's Republic of China had intervened in person, and even ordered the King of Jin and his men to be treated as thieves as robbers, but in the end, they were stopped by the Wei Ge Lao who suddenly appeared. I don't know how Wei Ge Lao persuaded him, but Wang Sanshan chose to stop and went directly to the cabinet."

Wei Zhongxian reported to Zhu Youxiao what happened on the street outside Chongwenmen, and said: "In addition, according to the Dongchang eyeliner report, the powerful and powerful officials of the Jin Wang and his royal family also planned to come to Damingyuan to impeach Wang Sanshan and others, and intend to ask Your Majesty, you will kill Wang Sanshan and prevent the new commercial tax. Do you think, will the Dongchang stop them and arrest them immediately?"

"Dongchang still doesn't know how to pretend!"

Zhu Youxiao replied.

Then, Zhu Youxiao sighed: "Let them make trouble. I believe Yuan Keli. He is different from Yuan Fu."

"yes!"

Wei Zhongxian replied, thinking that His Majesty still called Fang Congzhe Yuanfu, but the Ming Dynasty had already changed the chief minister.

Wei Zhongxian also understood the emperor's deep meaning.

Wei Zhongxian knew that it was nothing more than the current Dongchang operation, which meant that his emperor personally intervened, which would make those who opposed the commercial tax give up the fantasy of the emperor's compromise.

In this way, it is inevitable that there will be powerful merchants who are unwilling to give up business profits and will directly choose to rebel, which will increase the difficulty of success in the reform.

It is better to be like this now, hiding behind the scenes, making the powerful and powerful bureaucrats outside who oppose the new commercial tax mistakenly think that the emperor is not determined enough, and they have fantasies that they don’t have to risk the extermination of the nine clans to rebel directly, and a more peaceful way can prevent the reform of the new commercial tax. In this way, a large number of people who oppose the new commercial tax can be eliminated with the hands of Yuan Keli and others. In this way, even if someone rebelled due to the new commercial tax, their power will be reduced.

In addition, this can also deepen the conflict between civilian gentry and commercial gentry who intend to change commercial taxes.

"The deeper the conflict between the two sides, the more beneficial it is to the emperor and the common people in the world. I am the emperor's slave. I cannot guess the emperor's intentions at this time, and mistakenly think that the emperor really dares not offend the people of the world again. I ruined my future in the inner court for some external things!"

Wei Zhongxian thought to himself.

After Wei Zhongxian returned, he said to Xu Xianchun, Yang Huan and others: "The emperor passed the message and let them make trouble. So, you just need to record who is making trouble behind the scenes! In addition, if someone contacts you and bribes you, they will respond in vain. Then, it will be reported in fact. Try to make people outside feel that the emperor has not strict requirements on the East Factory, do you understand?"

"clear!"

...

"I would like to see Your Majesty! I want to report important things!"

"I want to impeach Wang Sanshan and others to take the name of collecting new commercial taxes on the street outside Chongwenmen, and to impose violent taxes, and even slaughter innocent people, causing the public to be resentful! Please give your majesty the decree to kill treacherous ministers and officials such as Wang Sanshan!"

"Your Majesty! We all know that you love the people as your sons, and the wise and bright are as bright as a lamp. However, Wang Sanshan and others ignored the will of the saint and used the king's order to prosper and kill. Please, Your Majesty, you should uphold justice!"

The next day, early in the morning.

King Zhu Cunren of Jin, Prince Zhu Cunren of Cheng'an Guo Yongzuo, Hanlin Zhang Xuan and other powerful officials came outside the Mingyuan and shouted to see His Majesty the Emperor.

Everyone looked very excited.

At this time, Zhang Xuan also said to King Zhu Cunren of Jin: "Your Highness, the emperor has already found out clearly. The East Factory is pretending to be blind now. I guess Your Majesty is really looking at our determination to stop the commercial tax!"

Zhu Cunren said, "Then let Your Majesty take a good look at our determination. I don't believe that Yuan Keli can still kill me, the prince. Even Your Majesty cannot kill the royal family at will. Besides, he is just a long-term worker for our Zhu family."

After hearing this, Zhang Xuan smiled awkwardly and replied: "The prince's words are reasonable. He has learned literature and martial arts and is good at the imperial family. No matter how powerful the dog is, he is just a lackey of the royal family. No matter how powerful the dog is, how can he bit his master? That is not a rebellion?"

After hearing this, Zhu Cunren smiled more and more proudly and asked, "But why does Your Majesty refuse to see us?"

"Your Majesty must wait for Yuan Keli's reaction."

While Zhang Xuan was talking, Liu Ruoyu happened to come to Damingyuan at this time. Seeing this, he hurriedly asked, "What do you guys mean?"

"I would also like to ask Eunuch Liu to report to Your Majesty that I want to see Your Majesty!"

Zhu Cunren and others replied.

Liu Ruoyu hurried into the palace and came to Zhu Youxiao. However, he saw Zhu Youxiao's group of connotations in the monk's work supervisors saw wood and drew drawings together. He was a little louder and shouted: "Old Master, there are many ministers outside who are clamoring to see you."

Zhu Youxiao looked up at Liu Ruoyu.

Then, Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, as if he was obsessed with strange skills and lewdness. He said angrily: "Go away, don't disturb me!"

Liu Ruoyu opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but it was not easy to anger Zhu Youxiao, so he had to retreat.

On this side, Liu Ruoyu had to stand on one side, not knowing what to do: "Do you go out and tell them about the situation, or should you stay here and stay still?"
