My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 146
The memorial that Zhu Gaochi handed to Zhu Zhanhe was submitted by Dali Temple. It recorded a case file. The criminal’s name was Tao Qiong, and his style name was Chengzhi. device building.

Just a while ago, Dongchang received news that someone had stolen gunpowder from the Military Weapons Bureau, so it conducted a joint investigation with Jin Yiwei, and finally found that Tao Qiong was the one who secretly transported some gunpowder out, and also Gunpowder was hidden in manors outside the city.

You must know that Ming’s firearms are sharp. From Zhu Yuanzhang’s rebellion against the Yuan Dynasty to Zhu Di’s several Northern Expeditions, firearms have played a huge role. Zhu Di even established the Shenji Battalion, which is also the world’s first pure firearms army.

Therefore, Daming has very loose control over cold weapons, almost never prohibiting them, but it strictly prohibits private possession of firearms, not to mention that Tao Qiong, who was promoted by the Military Weapons Bureau, stole it himself, it is an unforgivable crime.

So Dongchang and Jin Yiwei sent a team of troops to rush into Tao Qiong's manor outside the city, found the gunpowder in his possession, and arrested Tao Qiong.

Tao Qiong confessed to his private possession of gunpowder, but he gave a more magical explanation in this era for the reason for his private possession of gunpowder, because he actually wanted to use gunpowder to send himself into the sky.

To be honest, Jin Yiwei has handled countless cases, and this is the first time he has met someone like Tao Qiong. Even if you say that you secretly hid gunpowder for rebellion, it is more credible.

But Tao Qiong killed him just because he wanted to use gunpowder to fly into the sky, and the servants around him also said the same, it didn't feel like it was fake.

In the end, Dongchang and Jin Yiwei didn't know what to do with Tao Qiong?He simply dumped him to Dali Temple, and let the people there have a headache. As a result, Dali Temple didn't know what to do, so he wrote to the cabinet to ask for instructions, and there was this memorabilia in Zhu Zhanhe's hand.

"This...what's so ridiculous?"

After reading the memorial, Zhu Zhanhe asked very puzzled.

He has been with Zhang Zhong for the past few days, and Cao Lei and others are responsible for handling the affairs of the East Factory, so he really doesn't know about it.

"Zhan He, you don't know that Tao Qiong's family are all lunatics. His grandfather Tao Chengdao wanted to fly into the sky at the beginning, so he wanted to go crazy. He even asked someone to put gunpowder on a chair and fly into the sky like fireworks, but he was blown to pieces. .”

At this moment, Zhu Gaochi rubbed his aching belly from laughter, and then explained to Zhu Zhanhe.

"Tao Chengdao!"

Zhu Zhanhe was surprised, feeling that the name sounded familiar, and then he suddenly remembered that this Tao Chengdao was the famous Wanhu in later generations, known as "World Aerospace No. 1", and there was another one on the moon named after him. Named crater.

A person who thinks one step ahead is a genius, but a person who is ten steps ahead is often considered a lunatic by the world. Tao Chengdao is obviously such a lunatic.

In the era of Ming Dynasty, Tao Chengdao actually wanted to use a rocket to fly into the sky to achieve the dream of flying into the sky that no one has ever achieved since ancient times, but in the end he ended up being smashed to pieces, which naturally became the laughing stock of this era.

Now Tao Chengdao's grandson, Tao Qiong, wants to imitate him and use gunpowder to fly into the sky. If it weren't for the quick actions of Dongchang and Jin Yiwei, maybe he would be blown to pieces, so Zhu Di and the others would find it funny.

Looking at Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi and others who were overjoyed, Zhu Zhanhe really wanted to tell them: It is theoretically feasible to use a rocket to fly into the sky!

But in the end Zhu Zhanhe opened his mouth, but still didn't say the above sentence, because he didn't want to be regarded as a lunatic, not to mention that he had important matters to ask Zhu Di, so he wanted to behave normally.

"Grandfather, what do you plan to do with this Tao Qiong?"

Zhu Zhanhe finally asked Zhu Di.

Hearing this question, Zhu Di finally stopped laughing, and then said with some headaches: "This Tao Qiong stole gunpowder, and the guard should have been punished heavily for stealing, but the Tao family has worked for the Armament Bureau for generations and has improved firearms many times. Now my In the Shenji Battalion, many firearms were produced by them."

Zhu Di paused at this point, and then said again: "Besides, he is an idiot just like his grandfather Tao Chengdao. If he is really punished severely for this reason, I can't bear it, so this matter is true. It's not easy to handle."

"If Grandpa Huang feels a headache, why don't you give this Tao Qiong to your grandson, I want to interrogate him in person, and I'll deal with it when the time comes!"

Zhu Zhanhe took the initiative to ask, if he had known about this earlier, he would definitely not have pushed Tao Qiong to Dali Temple.

"Okay, it's rare that you take the initiative to ask to share my worries, and Tao Qiong was originally discovered by our Dongchang, so it is most appropriate for you to deal with it!"

Zhu Di waved his hand and said, Dongchang and Jinyiwei have the right to deal with such trivial matters by themselves.

Seeing that everything in the cabinet was in order, Zhu Di encouraged Jin Zhong and the others, and then left with Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanhe.

After leaving the cabinet, Zhu Di asked Zhu Zhanhe, "Seeing how you were in a hurry just now, is there something wrong?"

"Grandfather Mingjian, my grandson does have something to ask of you!"

Zhu Zhanhe saluted nervously.

Originally, he wanted to persuade Zhu Gaochi to see Zhu Di again, but he didn't expect that Zhu Di was also in the cabinet. Now he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say it.

"Speak!"

Zhu Di smiled slightly. For Zhu Zhanhe, as long as it was not too much, he would definitely not refuse.

"This one……"

Zhu Zhanhe hesitated again, then gritted his teeth and said, "On the Lantern Festival, I chose a woman from my mother's blind date!"

"Huh? This is a good thing!"

When Zhu Gaochi heard this, he immediately slapped his hands and said excitedly.

Zhu Di also grinned happily, stretched out his hand and patted Zhu Zhanhe's shoulder and said, "Your marriage should have been settled a long time ago, tell me, which family's woman is it? I will personally decree that she canonize her as the eldest son." concubine!"

"The other party's surname is Chang, and she is the granddaughter of King Kaiping!"

Zhu Zhanhe finally revealed Chang Sining's identity.

When Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi heard this, their smiles froze on their faces.

After a while, Zhu Di asked with a straight face, "Do you want to marry Chang Sheng's daughter?"

"Yes!"

Zhu Zhanhe felt the coercion from Zhu Di, but he still replied seriously.

Chang Sheng is the father of Chang Wei and Chang Si Ning.

"no!"

Zhu Di immediately refused.

At the beginning, Chang Sheng led the army to stop him from going south, and in the end he would rather die in battle than surrender. To Zhu Di, Chang Sheng was his enemy, how could his grandson marry the enemy's daughter?
"Grandfather, the Chang family was indeed ignorant of current affairs at the time, but you did not hold the Chang family accountable. After all, each was its own master at the time, and the Chang family was only loyal to the country. Moreover, it has been so many years. What about worrying about it?"

Zhu Zhanhe persuaded earnestly.

"I said no, I can't do it!"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Di refused again with a big wave of his hand. After speaking, he might feel that his tone was not firm enough, so he added again: "Just like that Tao Qiong can't fly to the sky, you don't even want to marry the Chang family's daughter!"

"Then what if Tao Qiong can fly into the sky?"

Zhu Zhanhe raised his eyebrows and asked excitedly.
