Brother Jia Sheshu of the Red Chamber

Chapter 148 Prince Teng Zhangjing

Mo Gu was seriously injured this time, and it took him a long time to recover. During the period of his recovery, the government affairs had to be handled by the ministers.

The ministers didn't know if it was because they saw Mo Gu casting spells with their own eyes, they were all as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and they patted their chests and promised to help Mo Gu defend the Great Jin Dynasty. It's complicated, he was blasted into charcoal, but he is not dead yet, what does it mean that he seems to have ascended to heaven?

Mo Gu took this opportunity to start the parliamentary system. Although it is impossible to go up to the parliament and down to the parliament to release all the rights like the later generations, at least it can be regarded as the prototype of the parliamentary system.

After the parliamentary system came out, it also greatly freed Mo Gu from the heavy political affairs, and Mo Gu also had more time to study some other things, and he also settled accounts by the way.

First of all... Naturally, Mo Da, Mo San, and Mo Si were all slapped [-] times. No matter what the reason is, it is wrong to abandon the work in the Northeast and leave the Northeast without an edict, even if they are worried about him. No, as for Mo Er, because she just gave birth, she just let the mother slap her palm ten times.

As for Wang Ziteng who fabricated that he was dead and tried to use mourning forces to counterattack the Jurchen, he was actually rewarded by him. Although it was a bit unlucky, the effect was good. The three provinces were really taken away by Jurchen.

"Master! Why are you still praising Wang Ziteng!" Mo San rubbed his buttocks and complained, "If Wang Ziteng hadn't said that he had a good nose and eyes, we wouldn't really believe that you died."

"There is such a thing!?" Mo Gu frowned slightly.

Even Mo Da nodded slightly, "Your Majesty, I and other figures know that you have supernatural powers. I didn't believe the news when it first came out. It's just that the cannon is so powerful that it's inevitable that I became a little suspicious. But if it wasn't for you Wang Ziteng..."

An angry look flashed across Mo Da's face, "The few of us won't really believe it anymore, so we hurried to Beijing."

They don't know that leaving one's post without authorization is a serious crime, but they were deeply favored by the old young master, and they couldn't bear to see the young master for the last time, so they hurriedly explained the matter and rushed back to the capital, unexpectedly... they were vacated by the prince together.

Mo Gu frowned slightly, and finally sighed: "I see, Wang Ziteng is really very scheming."

Wang Ziteng is an official fan, and the most important thing in his life is to climb the ranks and become an official!And his goal is to become a high official!

That's all for Mo Da. After all, he is on the road of civil servants. He and Wang Ziteng are not from the same road. Mo San and Mo Si are both military generals, and they are people he trusts very much. They went to the Northeast this time, and they have established a great reputation in the past six months. For military exploits, Wang Ziteng was deeply afraid that the two of them would steal the military exploits, so he tried to get them away.

Mo Da and the others were raised by him alone. If something happened to him, these four people would not be in a hurry. Taking advantage of this matter, Wang Ziteng easily charged them with dereliction of duty. Now, it would be inconvenient for the two of them to lead the Northeast Army again. They could eliminate the two invisible competitors without any effort, and they could also put their military exploits to the end.

This plan is not perfect, but Wang Ziteng's scheming is obvious that he can think of this plan in a short period of time.

Mo Gu and Mo Da just mentioned a little bit, even Mo San and Mo Si, who are the least thoughtful, understood Wang Ziteng's sinister intentions, Mo San said angrily: "This person is too sinister."

Mo Gu frowned slightly, "Wang Ziteng is extremely powerful, you should stay away from him in the future."

"Could it be possible to let him like this?" Mo San and Mo Si exchanged a look, making it clear that they were going to settle accounts after the fall.

Mo Gu said indifferently: "Prince Teng is useful to me, and in the battle with the Jurchen, he has indeed made meritorious service."

Not to mention the fact that he framed Mo Da and others, in the battle of the Jurchen, if Wang Ziteng hadn't reacted so quickly, the three northeastern provinces would have fallen into the hands of the Jurchen, and he would have saved the three northeastern provinces. I have to lean towards the prince.

When it came to this matter, Mo San and Mo Si were like deflated balls, and they didn't speak for a long time. They all died because of the Jurchen's family. If Wang Ziteng could resist the Jurchen, they would bear him for a while. no problem.

Mo Gu persuaded Mo Da and the others, braced his sick body again, and went to have a look at the small Jurchen cannons dug out in the White Pagoda.

Those Jurchens wanted his life out of their hearts, and even he himself was seriously injured, not to mention those Jurchens, but luckily they kept some things.

Like the pocket watch that was blown in half, the telescope that was blown in half, and the most important thing, the small Jurchen cannons used by the Jurchens.

Although the cannon body was deformed due to the explosion, it can be vaguely seen that its shape is a small cannon that is half smaller than ordinary Jurchen cannons.Although it is less powerful and less accurate, it is light in weight and easy to move, and it has iron axle wheels underneath, so it only needs a few people to move it. It is indeed a sharp attack weapon.

Seeing this thing for the first time, Mo Gu couldn't help but slapped his forehead. He really fell into a misunderstanding and almost missed a big deal.

As the god of war, artillery is most useful for attacking cities rather than defending cities. However, Jingrong cannons are too large and heavy to be moved, and the Northeast is famous for its many mountains and trees. Over the years, Wang Ziteng has used it to defend the city, and placed many Jingrong cannons outside the walls of Liaoyang Mansion, but he never thought of using Jingrong cannons to chase the enemy.

Mo Gu pointed out this point, and pondered: "Let's study it carefully, and research the next generation of Jingrong Pao No. [-] as soon as possible."

What Mo Gu can see, everyone in the Ministry of Industry and the Military Department can also see a bit. Dajin's technology is far above the Jurchens. Even the Jurchens can develop such small Jurchen cannons. Dajin naturally can do it too.

Sure enough, in less than half a year, the Ministry of Industry developed the Jingrong Pao No. [-], which is slightly smaller than the Jurchen Pao, but it is much stronger than the Jurchen Pao in terms of range and power, and only slightly better than the Jingrong Pao No. [-]. That's all, and the No. [-] gun was actually made of steel, which effectively improved the problems of the cannon's firepower and lack of accuracy.

The Jin Dynasty had the ability to train steel a long time ago, but steel cannot be mass-produced, the quantity is limited, and it is expensive, so everyone knows the benefits of fine steel, but it has never been used in mass-produced guns .

Jingrong Cannon No. [-] is still made of bronze, but due to the small size of Jingrong Cannon No. [-], which does not use much material, and the extremely high requirements for raw materials, the Ministry of Industry simply decided to use steel, and the effect was not expected. Yes, so almost all Jing Rong Pao No. [-] are made of steel.

Relying on the Jingrong Pao No. [-], which can be carried out by only three people, it greatly facilitates the Jin army's pursuit of the Jurchens. Wang Ziteng and Mo Ming also used this siege weapon to expel the Jurchens within three years.

After the Northeast matter was settled, Mo Gu also took this opportunity to call Prince Teng back to Beijing.

After receiving the imperial decree, Wang Ziteng was full of ambition, and ordered his wife, Mrs. He, to pack up her things and prepare to return to Beijing for a long-term stay.

He asked suspiciously: "How can the master be so sure that the Holy Majesty will let the master stay in Beijing?"

The Northeast has just been pacified, if the master is not there, what if those Jurchens come back again?

Wang Ziteng took a sip of the soup and said lightly, "The Jurchen dare not come again."

The Jin soldiers are several times as many as the Jurchens, not to mention relying on the power of guns, and they are not invincible to the Jurchens. Even if the Jurchens join forces with the Russians and Tatars, they will not be the opponents of the Jin Dynasty, unless the Jurchens If you really want to exterminate the clan, otherwise you will never dare to commit another crime in the past few decades.

"But..." Mrs. He bit her lower lip, feeling rather unwilling, "Master spent so much effort in the Northeast, if he left, wouldn't it be easy for the Mo family..."

That’s all for the Jia family, Mr. Jia is a sensible person, and he never competes with the master for any credit, but the Mo family has been competing with the master for credit, and he really hates it. Now that the master is gone, wouldn’t the Northeast that the master conquered be just for nothing? Mo family.

"There is no way around this." Wang Ziteng had carefully studied the current Holy Majesty, and he also knew very well the way the Holy Majesty employs people.

Wang Ziteng sighed: "Although I have a brilliant record, it's actually in exchange for human life. In the hearts of the soldiers, I have a cool word, far less than Mo Ming who has been cultivating in the Northeast for many years, and he is gentle. It is more appropriate to maintain the Northeast."

He already has the nickname of Crazy Wang, how good is his popularity in the army, and he can take this opportunity to retire, and he can be less jealous. Besides, Mo Ming is related to the Holy One by blood, so he has to work hard If you can't beat him, it's better to take a step back and leave some room.

"But..." He bit his lower lip, feeling really unwilling, "Master sacrificed so much for the Northeast..."

If that incident hadn't happened, she might not have complained so much, but if that incident happened, she was sincerely worthless for the master.

Speaking of this, Wang Ziteng's eyes dimmed, and he held He's hand tightly.

He said after a long time: "I have wronged you all these years..."

He quickly shook her head, "I'm not wronged, it's just..."

He looked at the little girl in the cradle beside her, she and Wang Ziteng's only daughter—Wang Xiluan, He's eyes were full of tenderness, "The only thing I regret about this concubine is that I can't give the master a son."

Although Luan'er is cute, he is not a boy after all. Their Wang family...is extinct after all.

Wang Ziteng also looked at the little girl in the cradle. This is the only daughter in his life. No amount of pain is enough. Not to mention that he swore in front of his grandfather's spirit that he would restore the glory of the royal family in the past. For his only daughter, he has to work hard. One hand, let the child have a worry-free life.

Wang Ziteng explained in a low voice: "Don't think that after I return to Beijing, this official career will be cut off. I have killed too much in the Northeast these years. The Holy Majesty called me back, but he wants to protect me."

Wang Ziteng pondered slightly, "If my calculation is correct, the Holy One intends to let me take over the position of Admiral of the Nine Sects."

He's eyes lit up, the nine admirals were in charge of public security in the capital, and non-emperors and close officials were not allowed to sit. It can be seen that the Holy Majesty really appreciates her husband, He said with a blessing: "I will go ahead and congratulate the master."

Wang Ziteng smiled slightly, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

"That's right." Wang Ziteng ordered: "When you return to Beijing, you have to take care of everything here. You must prepare a gift for the elder brother's family. Don't forget about the Jia family."

He said in a low voice: "I understand."

Needless to say, the elder brother's family, she also counted on the elder sister-in-law to have another son, who will give them to them after adoption, but the master only mentioned the Jia family and the Wang family, and the Xue family...

After thinking for a while, Mrs. He asked, "Master, should I also visit my eldest sister when I return to Beijing?"

The eldest sister married far away to Jinling before, but there were few in the past, but since Xue Bin and his son made meritorious service and obtained official status, the Xue family also followed into Beijing. This time when they returned to Beijing, the family reunion was a good thing, However, the eldest sister has made trouble again, and it is really ugly, but it is not right to let them have contact with Xue's family, nor is it not to have no contact.

Mrs. He sighed slightly. It is clear that her husband is talented in both literature and martial arts. He had two younger sisters who were more troublesome than the other. It almost ruined the reputation of the Wang family, but then he was bedridden for many years, and finally died without a sound, which is really sad.

Wang Ziteng's eyes narrowed slightly, "Let's watch and go, big sister."

At that time, he knew that the death of the second sister was wronged, but because of the power of the Jia family, he couldn't seek justice for the second sister. He is an official, but he is just a petty official, what is he afraid of.

Even if his sister made a mistake, he has to let the Xue family swallow this mistake for him!
