Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, Swear Not to Go to Meishan

Chapter 365 Accidentally Becoming a Thief

When Zhu Youjian left Qian's house, he left stealthily like a thief, because he felt guilty.

He didn't expect that he would get drunk after drinking more than a dozen glasses of wine yesterday. He was confused and didn't know who took the initiative. It seemed that he and Liu Rushi hugged each other, and then that happened.

It was already the early morning of the next day. No matter how hard he rushed, he would definitely be late for the morning court. He simply gave himself a three-day holiday.

Alas, he accidentally became a thief.

Zhu Youjian patted his forehead and recalled what happened yesterday. Logically, he only drank more than a dozen glasses of wine, and he shouldn't be drunk. Could it be Qian Qianyi's trick?

Forget it, the thing has already happened, and he is embarrassed to pursue Qian Qianyi's guilt. After all, he crawled out of Liu Rushi's bed, and she didn't make a fuss, so he was embarrassed.

I just don't know how Qian Qianyi and Liu Rushi will get along in the future?

However, after receiving the secret report from the spy lurking in Qian's house, Zhu Youjian felt that he had thought too much, or that he had made things a bit complicated.

According to the spy's report, Qian Qianyi was not angry at all, but on the contrary he was cheerful, as if he was very happy, and he almost asked the emperor if he was satisfied.

It was Liu Rushi who cried and wanted to hang herself, and then I don't know how Qian Qianyi persuaded her, Liu Rushi seemed to accept her fate, obeyed Qian Qianyi's arrangement, left Qian's house, and lived in a large mansion with three entrances.

The mansion was originally one of Qian Qianyi's properties, and it was soon transferred to Liu Rushi's name, and then there was no follow-up.

"Alas..." Zhu Youjian sighed, he understood Qian Qianyi's meaning, sent ten guards to protect Liu Rushi's safety, and sent several maids and servants to serve.

He was still struggling whether to take Liu Rushi into the palace, but he was not a heartless man who would turn his gun away and deny his love. The concubines in the palace should be treated as they should, and Liu Rushi was not less treated.

After this happened, Zhu Youjian stopped running outside, but turned his attention and energy back to his arsenal.

Although the war had not yet begun, the war machine of the Ming Dynasty had already been quietly running, and now it was running even more frantically. One DM2 rifle after another came off the production line and was soon shipped out of the factory to be equipped to the troops.

The First Brigade and the Second Brigade of the Royal First Division led by Xu Yu had all been equipped with DM2 rifles, and the Third Brigade was waiting to be equipped. After the Third Brigade was equipped, it would be the turn of other troops to be equipped. The order was the Royal Second Division led by Lan Fang, the Guangxi Wolf Army Division, the Sichuan Army Division, the Independent First Division of the National Defense Army led by Hong Niangzi, the Royal Third Division led by Gao Jie, and then other troops with good performance.

To make up for the lack of firepower, DM2 rifles have not been installed, and all the new army troops stationed on the front line are equipped with a large number of artillery, grenades and explosives. In Zhu Youjian's words, if the quality is not good, then use quantity to make up for it. If you can't kill you, then blow you up.

The Royal Guards led by Chang Buzhou are responsible for guarding the safety of the palace, and the 200-man guard battalion is responsible for guarding the safety of the inner palace. They are all equipped with DM2 rifles first.

Due to technical and other reasons, Zhu Youjian's machine guns, submachine guns and other rapid-fire weapons have not been developed in the short term, and he can only wait patiently.

Although the time traveler has a golden finger and various hangs, he is not an omnipotent god.

A large number of bullets, shells, grenades, and explosive packs are also being mass-produced and stored in several heavily guarded arsenals. Once the war breaks out, these ammunition will be continuously transported to the front line.

Due to technical reasons, the quality of the rubber tires produced was not good enough, but they were also produced in large quantities and given priority to the troops, especially the logistics department responsible for transportation. The means of transportation in those days were still horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts. The horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts with rubber tires were not only much faster than before, but also had a larger load capacity, and the damage rate of the wheels was greatly reduced, and the transportation cost was also reduced.

Not to mention that the landlords had no surplus food, even the emperor's family had no surplus food. War was a game of burning money, and every bit of saving counted.

That afternoon, Zhu You was reviewing memorials and a eunuch came in to report that Concubine Xiang had caught a cold and fell ill. He was shocked and rushed to visit her, and at the same time ordered the imperial doctor to treat Li Xiangjun.

In those days, due to the backward medical technology, a small cold could kill people. How could he not worry?

"Uh..." Zhu Youjian almost turned around and ran away when he saw the woman sitting by the bed and taking care of Li Xiangjun as soon as he stepped into the bedroom.
