    Gently opening his eyes, taking away the arm that was pressing on him, and looking at the two women lying next to him, Emperor Tianqi smiled bitterly and patted his forehead.  What's wrong with you?  How could such a thing be done?  Slowly walking out of bed, Concubine Duan and Concubine Wang were still sleeping soundly, with happy smiles on their faces. Maybe this is happiness for them!  After putting on his clothes and waving to the eunuch not far away, Emperor Tianqi slowly walked out the door.  "What did Chen Hong do?" Emperor Tianqi glanced at the little eunuch and asked in a deep voice.  "Back to the emperor, Mr. Chen is in front. The ministers from outside are here. It seems that the battle report of Liaodong is here." The little eunuch saluted Emperor Tianqi and replied respectfully.  Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi said to the little eunuch: "Don't disturb the two ladies, please serve them carefully." "Yes, Your Majesty, I will give you the order." The little eunuch looked flattering.  replied.  Nodding with satisfaction, Emperor Tianqi walked towards Qianqing Palace. After walking a few steps, he stopped and told the young eunuch: "Ask the imperial kitchen to send my breakfast to Qianqing Palace! Let them use some.  Please help the two noble concubines!" Before Emperor Tianqi entered the Qianqing Palace, he saw Chen Hong coming towards him and asked, "What? There is a memorial coming outside?"  After a salute, Chen Hong said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the detailed report of the Liaodong battle has arrived, as well as the reward invitations from Master Sun Chengzong. The great bachelors of the cabinet, the ministers of the six ministries, and the civil and military officials in Beijing have all arrived.  Come, do you want to meet your majesty?" Emperor Tianqi patted his forehead and asked with some confusion: "What day is it today? Why are all these people here?" "His Majesty, today is March 10th.  Nine, it should be the day of the morning court. Originally, the minister wanted to tell the ministers that he would not go to the court this morning, but now that the war in Liaodong has come, will your Majesty go to the court? "Chen Hong bowed and said respectfully.  Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Yes! I should go to court in the morning. This is a big happy event after all. With this incident, I can show off my talents." He touched himself.  Emperor Tianqi shook his head and said to Chen Hong: "I haven't had breakfast yet, let them wait!" Emperor Tianqi was eating breakfast, but the ministers in the court were a little anxious, and couldn't help but  They looked at each other and started talking.  However, most of the talk was about the war in Liaodong. It was the first time for the Ming Dynasty to have such a victory since Saarhu, so it was natural to celebrate it properly. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? but some of them looked as if some old gods were present, to some of them, and it was hard to tell what they were thinking!  However, the side of the hereditary nobles was very lively and spoke loudly.  Some thought Sun Chengzong's approach was right, others thought it was too risky, and still others thought Sun Chengzong was too cautious and should take advantage of the power of the victory to directly attack Kaiyuan and Tieling.  Some people even think that we should attack Jianzhou directly, wipe out the Jiannu slaves in one fell swoop, and avoid future troubles forever.  In short, everyone has their own ideas, but at this time they are very noisy.  "The Emperor has arrived!" With this shout, the hall suddenly became quiet.  Emperor Tianqi slowly walked up to his throne, waved to the ministers below, and said in a deep voice: "My dear friends!" When everyone stood up, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "I heard that Liaodong  The battle report has arrived, please find someone to read it." After saying that, Emperor Tianqi glanced at Liu Yijing and said, "Liu Aiqing, come and read it!" "Yes, Your Majesty," Liu Yijing took it from Chen Hong.  The memorial was opened gently and read loudly.  This memorial is very detailed, from the invasion of slaves, to the dispatch of detailed operations, to Sun Chengzong's strategy, to the bloody battle in Shenyang City, it is written in great detail.  There were praises for the generals, flattery for the emperor, and even more emphasis on the foreigner and the new artillery. They were eloquent and full of words.  By the time Liu Yijing finished reading the memorial, everyone in the court was stunned. They had no idea how thrilling the battle was.  Shenyang City was almost lost, and none of them thought that Sun Chengzong would dare to take such a risk.  What surprised them even more was the new artillery. No one thought that the imperial court actually had new artillery. It was really incredible. These ministers couldn't help but look at each other.  "My dear friends, I have finished reading the memorial. What do you think? Why don't you stand up and talk about it!" Emperor Tianqi said with a smile after receiving the memorial handed over by Chen Hong.  Although I felt a little regretful about exposing the artillery, it was not a big deal. These were just small things compared to what I was about to do.  "Your Majesty, I have this report!" As soon as Emperor Tianqi finished speaking, a man stood up and said loudly.    Taking a look at the person who stood up, it was Sun Ruyou, the Minister of Rites. Emperor Tianqi nodded with a smile and said loudly: "Sun Aiqing! Tell me!" "Your Majesty, I feel that this great victory in Liaodong will boost the morale of the army.  As a matter of great importance to inspire the morale of the army and the people, I feel that Lord Sun Chengzong should present the prisoners at the Meridian Gate, and His Majesty should go out to welcome them in person, so as to demonstrate his merits and tell the people and soldiers all over the world that anyone who has done meritorious service to the imperial court will be rewarded.  Some treatment." Sun Ruyou saluted Emperor Tianqi and began to speak impassionedly.  Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi felt that Sun Ruyou was right, and such things must be vigorously publicized.  Not only can it boost the morale of the people, but it can also intimidate surrounding countries, which is indeed very good.  "Your Majesty, I think what Sun Shangshu said makes sense, but on this basis, Lord Sun and the ministers who have made meritorious services should be rewarded. Let everyone in the world see that those who have contributed to the country and the court will be rewarded.  Remember!" The person who stood up this time was Wu Liangsi, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue. After he finished speaking, many people nodded slowly.  Glancing at the ministers below with satisfaction, Emperor Tianqi smiled and said: "Since this is the intention of all my dear friends, let's do it! Let Sun Chengzong present the prisoners at the Meridian Gate, and the cabinet will work out a reward method.  According to what Sun Chengzong wrote. ""Your Majesty, I have this report!" As soon as Emperor Tianqi finished speaking, another person stood up and bowed to Emperor Tianqi respectfully.  Emperor Tianqi looked down and suddenly felt that he did not recognize this minister. Judging from his dress, he should be from Zhongshu She.  In the previous dynasties, Zhongshu Sheren was in charge of writing edicts and edicts. He often drafted imperial edicts for the emperor, and his status was very high.  But in the Ming Dynasty, this power was given to the cabinet, and the Zhongshu Branch was established within the cabinet. The people in Zhongshushe were included in the Zhongshu Branch, and the official position of the Zhongshushe people was only from the seventh rank.  After taking one look at this person, Emperor Tianqi was a little surprised. He was just a member of the Zhongshu family, and he had no place in the court.  The reason why he is here is to record the decree of Emperor Tianqi when he went to court. After returning, the cabinet will draft the decree.  At this time, everyone in the court focused their attention on this person. In this court, he had no right to speak.  Few people in this court knew him, not even Chen Hong, who was standing behind Emperor Tianqi.  Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Aiqing's official position is from the seventh rank of Zhongshu Sheren. To be honest, I don't know your name, so you don't need to tell me your name now. Since  If you have the memorandum, I will let you say it. If what you say satisfies me, I am asking for your name. " "Yes, Your Majesty. I have nothing to say about the war in Liaodong. What I want to say is about it.  A new type of artillery." Although the man was looked at by everyone, his expression did not change at all. He was still talking calmly and calmly.  "Your Majesty, I have seen my weapons manufacturing workshop in the Ming Dynasty. The equipment used by ordinary armies is built by the Ministry of Industry and the cooperation of various ministries and yamen. However, the craftsmen's salary is low and their status is low. They have no interest in making good weapons.  This has resulted in many weapons being of substandard quality and the production speed is very slow, which is not conducive to reform and innovation. Since your Majesty has researched new artillery, I have a very good idea," the man said.  It is very clear to me that I have been paying attention to this matter for more than a day or two.  The man wanted to continue talking, but Emperor Tianqi interrupted him with a wave of his hand. He looked at the man with a smile and asked excitedly: "Okay, I'm very interested in what you said. What's your name?" "Back to Your Majesty.  , I have great ambitions!" The man bowed respectfully and said in a deep voice.  At this time, the ministers in the hall were all looking at this Gao Hongtu, but the expressions on everyone's faces were different, but most of them didn't care, with an indifferent expression.  In this hall, besides Emperor Tianqi who was interested in Gao Hongtu, there was another person, and that was Yuan Yingtai, Minister of Industry.  Yuan Yingtai has long had the idea of ??reorganizing the Ministry of Works. Now that there is such a person, he is naturally very interested and wants to have a good talk with him now.  Emperor Tianqi was stunned at this time. He had read some history books when he was in college, and he really knew this ambitious plan.  Because this person did not curry favor with anyone and did not form any cliques, he was depressed for the first half of his life.  He was even idle at home for more than ten years. It was not until the small court of Nanming that he became a cabinet bachelor.  But no one listened to his words. After the Ming Dynasty fell, he went on a hunger strike and died, along with his country.  For such a person, Emperor Tianqi would never let him go. Seeing the calm and calm Gao Hongtu, Emperor Tianqi felt happy.  This time, after getting this person, the Ministry of Works matters can be considered and implemented.  Emperor Tianqi was very fond of this person.Huan, couldn't help but laugh happily.  (To be continued.
