At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 371 Make yourself smart
Zhu Qizhen immediately decided to summon the navy and set off!
There is a saying that when the king is away, the minister's orders are not accepted.

If you are in the capital, if you say a word to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and I say a word, it will be difficult to think about going out.

However, as soon as the news came out, the capital exploded.

More than a dozen officials, including Cao Nai, Chief Assistant of the Cabinet, and Kuang Ye, Minister of Rites, set off immediately and traveled all the way south by train, desperately trying to dissuade them.

Yu Qian, who was far away in Chengdu, also received the news, but Wu Sizang was ready to move. Seeing that a war was inevitable, he couldn't get away, so he had to write a memorial and ordered someone to send it over.

Zhu Qizhen couldn't laugh or cry when he saw the memorial.

Roughly speaking, your majesty, wait a moment, there may be a war on my side, and when I finish the fight, I will go to sea with you to fight those Western devils.

"King Ning's earning money is okay, but fighting is almost meaningless. Write back to Yu Qian and ask him to solve the problem of Wu Sizang first. I don't need him to worry about it here!"

"Yes!"

Jin Ying respectfully agreed and took a note.

"About the preparations before the expedition, I will give you a month, fuel, fresh water, food, weapons and ammunition... In short, all military supplies will be handed over to you."

"Yes, this servant will definitely live up to the grace of the Holy Spirit!"

Jin Ying's writing hands visibly trembled. He never thought that he would be able to participate in such a large-scale battle.

Moreover, as the emperor's right-hand man, this kind of thing, only the original Wang Zhen...

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt cold, and cursed secretly: "I am doing things seriously now, how can I compare with Wang Zhen's bastard, this kind of thinking can no longer be allowed!"

Ever since the position of the chief of ceremonies was taken away by that guy Wynn, it has been a long time since I felt the feeling of being trusted by the emperor...

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Just as Jin Ying was immersed in the meeting and couldn't extricate herself, a familiar voice came over.

He couldn't help but look back, it turned out to be... Wynn?
what's the situation?
Jin Ying thought her eyes were dazzled, so she couldn't help but wiped her eyes, thinking to herself, it's broad daylight, what a ghost!

What are you thinking about?
If I knew this earlier, I would think about happy things, such as gold, silver and jewelry...

"Your Majesty!"

Wynn trotted in all the way, knelt down and howled.

"Why are you crying? Say something!"

"Yes!"

Wynn got up slowly and said: "Since I left that day, I always think of..."

"okay!"

Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it, what did you find?"

"what……"

Wynn was a little confused. He had prepared a lot of rhetoric for a long time, but he couldn't use a single word.

He originally wanted to explain the situation that night, to show his loyalty, and then tell how much he had suffered, and then how he discovered the clues of the rebellion, and traced the clues so hard...

In the end, a word was useless...

"Why are you standing still, I'm asking you something!"

Only then did Wynn realize that it seems... The emperor didn't blame himself for the crime of unfavorable protection?
Especially that traitor Li San is his old friend, so he doesn't intend to pursue such a relationship?

Thinking of this, he was overjoyed.

"According to the servants' unannounced visits, the blueprint of the iron-clad ship was stolen by a gangster named Niu Dabao, who sold it to a local wealthy businessman, Cao Dejin, and then Cao Dejin was sold to foreigners. The country of those foreigners is in East Rome, thousands of miles away... Yes Alright, this servant brought the map over here!"

Wynn took out a map from his body, which marked a location.

"Your Majesty, please take a look. According to the results of enquiry, the Eastern Roman Empire is roughly here!"

Zhu Qizhen pouted helplessly, and said, "You... have worked hard!"

"It's not hard, it's not hard!"

Wynn talked more and more vigorously, pointing to the position on the map, and continued: "The slaves have already inquired clearly. After the Eastern Romans got the blueprints, many officials were skeptical, thinking that the steam engine and steel equipment mentioned in the blueprints were impossible to realize. Therefore, it has not been put into construction so far.”

"My servant also found out that a fleet of the Eastern Romans was operating in the Nanyang area, and had even penetrated into the territory of our Ming Dynasty. The servant thought that we must not be lenient in dealing with these people, and directly dispatched iron-clad ships to drive them out of the country, and then cooperated with the Nanyang area. Let the division go to sea to fight and take it down in one fell swoop!"

"Finally, it is the expedition to Eastern Rome, and it is strictly ordered to hand over the blueprints and smugglers..."

While Zhu Qizhen was listening, his face was a little embarrassed, but he was embarrassed to interrupt him.

Wynn also noticed that the situation was a bit subtle at this time. Why did the emperor not respond at all after he said so much?

He raised his head cautiously, but saw Jin Ying standing in front of him with a smile.

"Wynn, you have a heart!"

"Eunuch Jin, you are..."

"The fleet you mentioned did indeed have three ships that ran into our Daming territory, and they have already been wiped out."

"what?"

"Also, the emperor has decreed that he will go to East Rome in one month."

Wynn's face became a little dazed. It turned out that the emperor had killed the invading enemy and ordered to go out.

What's the point of doing so much by yourself?

Seeing his tangled face, Zhu Qizhen said: "Go and find Yuan Bin, he is dealing with the case of Qiongzhou Wei's liaison with foreign enemies, and the results of your investigation should be helpful."

Wynn nodded dully, saluted and left.

After taking two steps, I felt more and more that something was wrong.

who am I?
where am I?
What have I done?
At this time, a burly young man came towards him, and the two looked at each other, and the young man immediately clasped his fists and saluted.

"Eunuch Huai!"

Wynn was taken aback for a moment, saw the man in front of him, and after a long time, said, "You are Zhang Mao?"

"Exactly!"

Zhang Mao laughed, and said: "I heard that my father-in-law went undercover in person in order to find out the enemy's situation. It's really admirable!"

"It's all... as it should be, as it should be!"

Wynn smiled sheepishly, but he didn't understand why Zhang Mao came here?

Shouldn't he guard Jiaozhi with Zhang Fu?
Zhang Mao said again: "The emperor is still waiting to be summoned, and I will talk to my father-in-law later, and I will leave!"

Wynn nodded in agreement. For some reason, a feeling of loneliness surged in his heart.

Zhang Mao is sitting at home, and now he is about to go to battle, what did he do?
After going through untold hardships, he escaped from that dark cave, and after getting the clues, he acted as an undercover agent without hesitation. In the end, why was it all in vain?

All the cases have been handled by the emperor.

I finally got the clues and prepared to fight the foreign enemy, but in the end, even the ashes of the enemy were thrown away.

He did a lot of things, but he didn't seem to do anything.

Ugh!
From now on, I should just follow the emperor honestly and do what I can, but don't make up your own mind, and you will find out in the end that it is all a slow step.

I thought I was very capable, but it turned out that I was all smart...
