Yun Dai thought, this firearm was finally produced, and it was impossible to
leave it in vain. If it took up space, it would damage the old.
For this arsenal, a lot of money was also invested in it. This year, only the
money went in, and no money came out. Yundai also hopes to sell the firearms
as soon as possible and get the silver in return.
Besides, the court has been short of money.
The money from the Ministry of Households is never enough. The money from the
Ministry of Internal Affairs is the royal's own money. If it weren't supported
by the merchant ship business, I'm afraid it would be empty.
It is better not too late to inspect firearms.
Yundai thought for a while and said, "Afternoon. The emperor is getting better
recently. I don't have to go there all the time. After a nap, you come to me
and I will take you to the arsenal."
"I will stay here and have lunch with you, okay?" Zhou Yizhi said, "After
lunch, I will stay here and wait for you. I don't need to take a nap."
Yun Dai smiled and said: "If you are willing to stay for dinner, I can't ask
for it. However, you don't have to go back to accompany the empress dowager?
She will probably ask if you don't go back all day."
Zhou Yizhi sighed, "You don't know, since Jiang Ran was chased away by you,
the empress dowager has been upset in her heart."
Yun Dai thoughtfully: "Because you have a good relationship with me, so she
shook her face at you too?"
"Not really, it's mainly because she is not in a good mood." Zhou Yizhi said,
"The empress dowager's life has been smooth, and it is her family's greatest
honor and support. Now our new emperor has taken the throne and weakened
Jiang. The power of the family. You drove Jiang Ran back and made her lose
face in her natal family. Can she be happy in her heart?"
Yun Dai smiled and said, "Looking at your leisurely life all day, I didn't
expect to know everything in my heart."
Zhou Yizhi laughed: "What can I do to stay in Ci'an Palace all day with the
Empress Dowager, isn't it just leisurely. She talks all day, I don't want to
know but I have to know."
Yun Dai glanced at her.
Zhou Yizhi was only about 20 years old. It was a good time for her youth.
After the death of the first emperor, as the concubine of the first emperor,
she stayed in Ci'an Palace time after day and wasted time.
It also makes people sigh.
Yundai suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said: "I remember that when
King Cheng rebelled, the emperor promised you, as long as you can protect the
queen mother, he will promise you so that you can get what you want and join
the army. What? It’s been so long, why doesn’t the emperor exchange his
promise."
Zhou Yizhi smiled bitterly: "The emperor did not break the contract. He did
send someone to ask me twice. But..."
Yun Dai immediately understood: "The empress dowager won't let you go?"
Zhou Yizhi defaulted.
Yun Dai frowned and said, "This old lady is also troublesome. The emperor
allows you to go out, so why is she stopping?"
"She said, I am the concubine of the first emperor, and logically, the emperor
should make me a concubine." Zhou Yizhi smiled bitterly, "The concubine..."
Seriously, she is the emperor's mother.
Yun Dai had to call her Zhou Niangniang.
However, after the new emperor ascended the throne, she did not give her any
canonization as a concubine.
Probably always remembered his promise.
Yun Dai said: "Now the Great Zhou is still peaceful, there is no war. You go
to the army, and it won't make any difference. Probably because of this, the
emperor did not call for you."
