The farmer has a mall

Chapter 240 Stopping the Dynasty (Addition [-])

Forced by the bully Gu Nanyan's "excessive power", Xu Yingying had no choice but to endure the grievance in her heart and the pain in her legs and feet and continue to do her filial piety to the Liu family.

The Gu family's old house was very quiet, as if there was no such daughter-in-law, and no one showed up for several days.

No one came to make trouble, Gu Nanyan felt very bored, and stared at Xu Yingying with resentful eyes every day as she brought tea and water to Mrs. Liu.

Liu Shi was very helpless. To be honest, she didn't want to see people related to the Gu family dangling in front of her eyes.

But she also understood that this was her granddaughter venting her anger, so she didn't stop her.

"Grandma saw that your subordinates hurriedly delivered a letter this morning, but something happened in the border town again?"

The subordinate she was talking about was Ashlan, Gu Nanyan shook her head, and smiled at the restless Liu Shi.

"It's about the factory. Grandma doesn't need to be nervous."

The letter was written by Su Wenfeng to her.

The main reason was to tell her that for the safety of the arsenal and the protection of the city defense artillery, Gu Yao sent a team of nearly [-] people to surround the two factories tightly.

And every person who enters and exits must go through strict interrogation and search.

Gu Nanyan didn't have any objections, but Gu Yao's actions saved her trouble.

But what happened next made her frown.

After the successful test firing of the first city defense artillery, Su Wenfeng wrote a letter as a county magistrate to show Gu Nanyan's merits.

He roughly stated the power of the artillery in the booklet, and it was rushed to the emperor's desk in eight hundred miles.

Li Mi immediately excitedly shared the news with the courtiers, with the intention of making everyone happy.

However, the officials headed by Minister of the Ministry of Officials Yu Wei Sheng were shocked, and they all wrote a letter on the second day, demanding that the imperial court take over the two factories in Mingshan, not to mention that they also wanted Gu Nanyan to share the formula of steelmaking And hand over the refining method of the artillery.

Li Mi was very angry when he heard the words, and almost smashed the jade seal in his hand on their heads.

In a fit of anger, he even burned the notebooks of several people in front of all civil and military officials.

I thought this matter would pass like this, but something unexpected happened, the Queen Mother, who always eats vegetarian food and recites Buddha without caring about worldly affairs, came forward.

She did not directly say that she would take the factory back to the imperial court, but told Li Mi one by one, the stories of the courtiers or generals who made great achievements in the past dynasties tried to usurp the throne.

Li Mi just said "She is my younger sister" with a gloomy face, then flung his sleeves away.

However, this did not prevent a group of courtiers from exerting unremitting pressure, and many ministers even refused to go to court on the grounds of illness.

The court hall was half empty in an instant, and Li Mi was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot, and fell ill when he returned to the palace.

In the emperor's bedroom, Li Mi was sitting leisurely on a recliner, eating milk raisins purchased from Guose Tianxiang.

Accompanied by Empress Bai and Concubine Cui, they were researching the mechanical fan sent by Gu Nanyan.

"I don't know where this girl got her exquisite heart. She can make such a rare thing." The queen praised.

There is also one in her palace, which was sent when it was hot some time ago, and it allowed her to spend a comfortable summer.

"No, there is also that little rabbit that can jump by itself after a few twists. It is so rare that you have to hug it even when you sleep."

Concubine Cui echoed, and after finishing speaking, she turned the knob on the fan a few times, and the fan blades turned to blow a cool breeze.

Li Mi sneezed from the blow, and looked at the two women who ran to his dormitory chatting speechlessly.

It was fake that he vomited blood, but he turned on the fan all night because he was greedy for coolness, and as a result he contracted a cold the next day.

Li Mi, who wanted to pretend to be sick, went to rest in peace of mind, thinking that he could be clean for two days, but who knew that these two people came to harass him every day.

Seeing his thoughts, Concubine Cui curled her lips, and said in disgust: "The emperor thinks we are willing to come, if you didn't complain to the outside world, my concubine and my sister wouldn't have to get up early every day to attend to the sick."

She angrily asked the maid behind her to move the fan away, and rolled her eyes at Li Mi.

Li Mi: "..."

Is it reasonable for this woman to sleep until the sun rises every day? !

It's hard for him to get up to go to court before dawn every day since he became the emperor, and he can't sleep for half an hour longer.

He covered his chest, giving himself a smooth ride, and suddenly regretted not taking the opportunity to give up the throne to King Ning.

"The emperor has been out of court for three days, so hiding like this is not an option."

The queen gave them a funny look, and poured Li Mi a cup of hot tea.

Li Mi accepted it in relief, and sighed faintly.

"I can't help it. The Minister of the Ministry of Officials is pressing hard. In the past, Fang Junhe's people were all on his side, but now they are complaining collectively."

Speaking of this, a haze flashed in Li Mi's eyes.

He knew this matter with his toes, it must be the queen mother who played tricks behind her back.

Jianan Kingdom pays attention to filial piety, although women in the harem are not allowed to participate in politics, but if he blatantly refute the Queen Mother, he may be drowned by the censor's saliva!

In desperation, he could only vomit blood and pretend to be sick.

"You can just pretend to be sick for seven or eight days. After a long time, I'm afraid it will cause turmoil in the court." The queen frowned.

In the final analysis, although there is still a faction of loyal monarchs headed by her grandfather in the court, but the official minister's attitude is particularly tough this time, and even the queen mother was invited out, which is really a headache.

"Turbulence is turbulence, they can still eat me."

Li Mi stuffed another milk raisin into his mouth and began to smash the jar.

"Besides, I'm not completely helpless."

The Queen and Concubine Cui were startled when they heard the words, and looked at Li Mi curiously.

"What is the emperor's countermeasure?"

Li Mi twitched the corners of his mouth proudly, raised his chin and said: "I have already written the events of the past few days in a letter, and sent it to the county magistrate of Mingshan in [-] miles, and he will definitely tell Sister Nan about it. "

"According to her temperament, if someone dares to covet her things, can she let them go?"

That girl ran away for a few months, and it was time to come back.

Li Mi laughed straight, the corners of his mouth almost reaching behind his ears.

Concubine Cui: "..."

Heh, the dog man has no other skills, but the speed of filing complaints is unparalleled!

Gu Nanyan, who was tricked by others, sneezed violently. She rubbed her nose and watched Liu Zhenzhen help her pack her bags.

Just as Li Mi expected, Gu Nanyan decided to go back to the county on the second day after receiving the letter.

It wasn't because of the contents of the letter, in fact, she didn't want to do what Li Mi wished, and she had no plans to return to Beijing for the time being.

The factory is just on the right track. If she leaves now, if there is a problem, others may not be able to solve it.

And she didn't forget that there is Ning Zongqing in Wuyin County waiting for her in exchange for benefits.

As for the affairs of the court, Gu Nanyan shrugged and said he didn't care.

The factory is here, whoever wants it can get it.

Of course, the premise is that she can pass this level.

She originally wanted to take Liu Shi back to the Princess Mansion, but Liu Shi didn't want to delay her granddaughter's business, so she stayed.

Simply having Aunt Huang and Nanny Qu next door to chat with her every day makes her life easier than when she was in the capital.

Seeing that she really didn't want to leave, Gu Nanyan left behind a few guards, and brought Ashlan and Liu Zhenzhen back to the county seat.

The production speed of the smelter gradually increases with the proficiency of the workers, and it can produce hundreds of catties of steel every day.

Some of them were transported to the arsenal by Gu Qing to be turned into knives and sent to the Zhenbei Army in batches.

In addition to the consumption of building artillery, there is not much left.

The two factories are on the right track, Gu Nanyan thinks twice and decides to open two more cement factories.

The county magistrates who heard the news came to him one after another, wanting Gu Nanyan to build the factory on his own site.

After careful consideration, Gu Nanyan chose two places, one of which was in Wuyin County.

She decided to do so mainly because the city wall of Wuyin County that isolated foreign enemies had already been scarred after two wars.

Gu Nanyan was determined to repair it, so he thought about making cement.

Her decision made Dong Zhiqian, the magistrate of Wuyin County, whose leg injury was mostly healed, overjoyed. He limped and took care of the matter in person. After a few days, he chose a place to start construction.
