Daming: Dad, you are really not good at governing the country

Chapter 448: The Emperor is pleased with his words and praises him; the ministers are happy and ambitious

Chang Yuchun was standing quietly outside the palace, his posture as straight and upright as the green pine and cypress, motionless.

But his sword-like eyebrows were slightly furrowed, like two dark clouds gathered between the peaks.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Chang Yuchun was hiding something in his heart, and it was something he couldn't wait to say out loud.

His eyes, like those of a nimble bird, would secretly glance into the hall from time to time.

But not long after, Chang Yuchun quickly retracted his gaze, as if he was afraid that others would discover his impatience.

Chang Yuchun was a well-known impatient person, and at this moment he had a piece of great news in his mind - the improvement of firearms had been successful!

This news was like a burning flame, burning in Chang Yuchun's chest and making him feel very uneasy.

Now Chang Yuchun wished he could rush into the palace immediately and tell His Majesty the good news at the top of his voice.

So that everyone in the court can also be happy.

But he also knew that the rules of the court were very strict, and at this moment the ministers were discussing financial matters.

If I just barge in like this, it would be rude and disrespectful, and might even make His Majesty unhappy.

So Chang Yuchun could only suppress his inner impulse, and he looked just like a cheetah trapped in a small cage.

Although his body was restrained, his muscles were tense.

Every inch of him was filled with strength ready to break through the cage at any time, and his eyes were flashing with an irrepressible light.

Finally, the discussion about financial matters in the hall gradually died down, the noisy sound slowly subsided like the receding tide, and the atmosphere also eased slightly.

Chang Yuchun breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been pardoned.

The breath was long and deep, as if it wanted to let out all the impatience that had been pent up in his heart.

He quickly raised his hand to straighten his clothes, first gently smoothing the corners of his clothes, and then straightening the official hat on his head.

Every movement was performed extremely delicately, just like a soldier wiping his beloved weapon before going to the battle, revealing a sense of solemnity and seriousness.

Then Chang Yuchun took a deep breath, and his chest puffed out, as if he wanted to take all the confidence in the world into his stomach.

Then he walked towards the hall step by step with steady yet heroic steps.

Chang Yuchun's steps were firm and powerful, and every step he took was like the heavy beating of a war drum.

It echoed in the quiet corridor outside the palace, demonstrating his unique courage and boldness as a military commander.

"Your Majesty!"

Chang Yuchun stepped into the hall and bowed respectfully first.

He was seen with his hands on the ground, his forehead almost touching the ground, his posture was as pious as a believer worshiping God.

After being allowed to stand up, Chang Yuchun's voice was as loud as a bell, echoing in the empty hall.

It seemed as if it was going to make the dome of the temple tremble slightly.

"Your Majesty, I have a great news to tell you today!

You also know that I have always been concerned about the armaments of our Ming Dynasty. Some time ago, news came from the Firearms Institute.

It was like the first thunder in spring, so exciting - the automatic musket had been completely transformed!

Now on the parade ground, I see the soldiers of the Twelve Guards training enthusiastically with their muskets. "

When he said this, Chang Yuchun's face instantly lit up, and he looked like a child who had obtained the treasure he had always dreamed of.

His eyes were sparkling with uncontrollable excitement and pride.

As he spoke, he also gestured with his hands.

"I went to take a look a few days ago. Wow, the scene was so spectacular! The soldiers on the training ground were all standing tall and full of energy.

There seemed to be two jumping flames hidden in those eyes, revealing the love and anticipation for this new firearm.

They held modified automatic muskets, stood in neat rows to practice aiming, or performed tactical moves in simulated combat scenarios.

The momentum was as if what was held in his hand was not a firearm, but a magical weapon that could create the world and change the destiny of the world.

He was as majestic as a tiger coming down the mountain, and he was full of courage and bravery. It was so exciting!"

Chang Yuchun paused for a moment and swallowed.

He moistened his slightly dry throat due to excitement, and then continued: "In addition, the improvement of the Hongwu Cannon is also progressing quite smoothly, and has now entered the final testing and adjustment stage.

I estimate that it won’t be long before good news comes.

By then, the military might of our Ming Dynasty will be even greater. Those foreign enemies will only be able to see our Ming Dynasty flags from afar, and they will be so frightened that they will not dare to easily invade our Ming Dynasty borders!"

Chang Yuchun became more and more excited as he spoke, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

That smile was like the most ardent flower blooming in spring, filled with sincere joy for the growing strength of the Ming Dynasty's military.

After all, having fought in battles all his life, he knew too well what sophisticated weapons meant to the army. They were the key to determining victory or defeat, and a matter of life and death.

Zhu Yuanzhang was originally sitting on the dragon throne, frowning slightly, as if he was still worried about financial matters.

There was a hint of fatigue on his face, as if covered with a layer of light frost, revealing a sense of solemnity and helplessness.

But when Zhu Yuanzhang heard Chang Yuchun's words, his eyes widened instantly.

It was as if bright stars suddenly lit up in his eyes. The light was sharp and hot, instantly dispelling the haze on his face.

Then a hint of surprise spread from the bottom of his eyes.

It first climbed up to the corners of the eyes, stretching out the crow's feet.

Then it quickly covered his entire face, making Zhu Yuanzhang's originally slightly serious face suddenly become lively and vivid.

He slapped the armrest of the dragon throne with such force that it made a dull "bang" sound.

It echoed in the hall like the beating of festive gongs and drums.

"Well, Lord Chang, this is truly a great achievement. I am very happy about it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang burst into laughter, and the laughter first rolled out from his throat like rumbling thunder.

Then it broke through the throat and echoed wildly in the hall, hearty and heroic.

The beams and pillars of the hall seemed to tremble slightly due to the shaking.

"Once the rapid-fire muskets and Hongwu cannons are improved, the military might of our Ming Dynasty will be even greater. Let's see if the foreign enemies dare to easily invade our Ming Dynasty borders in the future!
Ha ha ha ha……"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and tilted his head slightly, the smile on his face almost overflowing.

That look was as if he had already seen the glorious scene of the Ming army relying on these powerful weapons to be invincible and victorious on the battlefield.

The court suddenly became noisy, as if a huge rock had been thrown into a calm lake, causing layers of hot ripples to appear.

On the military side, Zhenyuan Hou Gu Cheng was stunned at first, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

After confirming that what Chang Yuchun said was true, a smile as bright as the sun instantly broke out on his face.

Gu Cheng's eyes widened, full of surprise and excitement.

He was so excited that he pulled off his official hat and waved it vigorously in his hands.
