Chapter 52: The Poison Dragon Tie-ears to Collect Thunder (2)

The Imperial Hospital is an unpopular yamen, and it is the "symbolic doctor and musician" that Han Yu said, "a person with all craftsmen" whom he said is "despised by gentlemen". Therefore, who is responsible for this yamen does not attract too much attention from the civil officials. They are also happy to change to a smart doctor, so if they get sick, they will have a support.

As for the Gunpowder Bureau, it is a vicious under the military battle in the 24th Bureau, and it is an important part of the Beijing Camp sharing.

The emperor allocated military expenses from the treasury to the three major camps of the capital every year. After eating most of the vacant salary, all kinds of soldiers, armor and gunpowder were eaten. Among them, gunpowder was the most beautiful. As long as he was taken back, who knew if he used it during practice? Although there was the best formula for black gunpowder, in order to save costs, as long as he could make a sound, who cares about the lethality of gunpowder?

Zhu Cixuan met with Lu Bin, an envoy of the Imperial Hospital.

This old man who was a senior official with the Central Discipline Inspection Officer, Zizhi Yinjia Guanglu Temple had no objection to the replacement of the new leader. Anyway, there was no big difference between the emperor and the prince, and they were both people who controlled their own careers.

The prince was also not interested in this kind of "good doctor" who was good at warming up and taking medicine carefully, and would rather make no contribution than make mistakes. He just asked him to copy a certificate of raw medicine under the Imperial Hospital as soon as possible to facilitate the use of medicinal materials.

Yu Chang also officially worked in the Imperial Hospital, and had the right to read all inventory materials, and became the well-known prince's confidant.

But the Gunpowder Bureau is a little troublesome.

"The firearms are very prosperous, and this is something you can know with your knees." Zhu Cixuan returned to the outer residence of the East Palace and felt much happier. He said to Liu Ruoyu in his study: "If the firearms are compared to strong soldiers, gunpowder is the courage of the soldiers. When soldiers go to the front line of life and death, there must be no negligence on this. Who should the companion think that is competent?"

Liu Ruoyu thought about it and said, "The Gunpowder Bureau is also a fat man. If you send someone who is greedy and corruption, you will be afraid of bad things. However, there are few people in Zhongjuan who are not greedy for money."

"There are always honest people." Zhu Cixuan said. The Gunpowder Bureau is more limited than the Imperial Hospital. It is an internal supervisory yamen and has always been run by eunuchs.

Liu Ruoyu chuckled and said, "When the old minister was in the palace, he heard a story."

"Oh? Let's hear it."

"In our palace, there is a place called Anletang, which is where our ancestors give blessings to the internal officials and those who are small fire." Liu Ruoyu said.

"Well, I know." Zhu Cilang nodded.

Liu Ruoyu then said, "During the Wanli period, two internal officials moved into Anletang. One of them was not early, and there was nothing around him, only a copper basin. When his family came to restrain him, they searched for the copper basin but couldn't find it. The other internal officials were soon extinguished and died. When they restrained, they found that there was a copper basin hidden in the quilt, which was the relic of the previous internal official."

Liu Ruoyu smiled bitterly and said, "This matter was once a joke. Therefore, it is said that the internal minister is greedy and will never stop until death. The old minister witnessed these bad habits and was very unwilling to accept it because he had three great wishes. One is not to play, the other is not to build a house, and the third is not to accept the old officials and property. Therefore, he was first supervised and transformed, and the memory of the minister is worthy of a smile."

Zhu Cilang did not argue. He knew that Liu Ruoyu was indeed honest, otherwise he would not have fallen into a state of worrying about food and clothing after being released from prison. However, Zhu Cilang knew very well that the eunuch's life was prosperous, so he did not have much sympathy.

"In this way, it's really hard to find someone among the eunuchs?" Zhu Cixuan gently touched the fluff on his upper lip, and recently he began to turn black and hard.

"I really can't think of a suitable candidate... I would like to forgive you." Liu Ruoyu said.

"Then it's all about being irrelevant."

"The civil servants may not be willing to go to that kind of place." Liu Ruoyu said.

That is the official position of a eunuch, which civil servant is willing to go? Moreover, it is difficult to arrange the rank of the rank.

"I have a nephew who is honest and willing to work hard. I don't know if I can take it in my heart." Liu Ruoyu bowed and said.

Zhu Cixuan glanced at him with a little meaningful look and said with a smile: "You should not avoid relatives in your heart, and you should not avoid enemies outside. You can tell me the way of loyalty. What are his strengths?"

"Honest and willing to work." Liu Ruoyu repeated these four words: "The old minister has been following His Highness in recent days. First, the saints must obtain talents and then take charge of common affairs, but His Highness sets rules, expresses rewards and punishments, and then trains talents with common affairs. Therefore, the old minister thought that as long as a person is honest and willing to work and can do things meticulously according to His Highness's rules, it is better to use someone who has no idea."

Zhu Cilang's smile became stronger, and looking at Liu Ruoyu's eyes again, it was quite like a confidant. In his previous life, he did not believe in celebrity employees, and preferred institutionalized team power. I heard that one of the software giants had a genius who had done a project, and he could not rely on such people.

Only iron-like systems and airtight regulations can allow the entire team and even the empire to go further.

This is also the reason why Zhu Cilang is not in a hurry to receive his confidants in the palace. As long as there is regulations and power, the backbone he trains himself is more reliable. And those who burn cold stoves and ride on the fences are everywhere. If there is no particularly outstanding candidate, there is really no need to bother to store them.

"Since you have the confidence to avoid your relatives, I have nothing to worry about. But you know my rules, rewards and punishments must be clear. I care very much about the matter of the Gunpowder Bureau. If he dares to violate my taboos, he may still involve you." Zhu Cixuan said seriously.

"The old minister will also focus on it and will definitely not let the Gunpowder Bureau leak any misleading." Liu Ruoyu's original intention was to include the Gunpowder Bureau in his palm, which was the real foundation for his life. However, his status was too high, and the prince seemed to be more interested in his ability to plan around him, and he had no intention of letting go, so he carried his nephew out.

Although his nephew was cowardly and could not even suppress his wife, he was born tall and strong, and had a rare and solid mind. No one supported him at home, and when he had the banner of the prince outside, he might not be able to do something. Moreover, the craftsmen of the Gunpowder Bureau had a lower status than the nephew of the Liu family and had no courage to be the one below.

...

"You only know how to use your strength to pick fruits. How long did we raise him in vain that day? It's okay for him to take care of your only nephew. Isn't you the only one in your Liu family?" The woman kept talking as usual, but she didn't dare to be as arrogant as she pointed at her nose and scolded her like she did back then.

She even used a kind-hearted tone of persuasion and said, "You think you can do chores outside and how much money will be spent in a month? Now my uncle is polite to us, are you still thinking about it like this?"

"I just fear that I can't do it, and it will cause my uncle to lose his food." The man smoked cigarettes, and his whole face wrinkled together.

The monthly income of five taels of silver is a high salary that I never dared to think about before! Those scholars who can write and calculate will go to wealthy families to serve as Westerners and guests, and only have this amount per month. They don’t know a few words of big names, and even if they are separated, they may not recognize their names. However, because of their uncle’s support, they will feel weak in their legs.

"Besides," the man said timidly, "Didn't you give us one hundred taels?"

"Scared! You can keep eating, drinking, wearing and living like this!" The woman's voice suddenly became high, scaring the man's neck to shrink and he dared not speak.

The woman quickly lowered her tone and advised: "Besides, you didn't hear from the neighbors that the prince is too Weixing, who can subdue demons and demons. Now there is a plague in the city again. Can you go to the East Palace to get some fairy spirit and come back, and your family will be safe, right? Maybe I can still get pregnant with a man and a half woman with this noble spirit?"
