The manufacturing office was very efficient. At noon the next day, he sent more than a dozen crystal lenses. Zhou Shixiong picked up a magnifying glass with the highest transparency and conducted a bacterial science experiment for the emperor and his family. He poured water with two porcelain bowls, put some cat shit in one bowl and the other with some dog shit. Then the pope and his concubines learned to use magnifying glasses.

"Ah! Bang." Fortunately, there was a layer of cotton cloth on the table, otherwise the first crystal magnifying glass would have been broken and retired early. Emperor Chongzhen was startled by what he saw, loosened his hand and threw it away.

"Zhou Aiqing, is this true?" Emperor Chongzhen pointed at the small porcelain bowl with his fingers trembling. He could not believe what he saw with his eyes. There were several strange-shaped insects in the water. Zhou Shixiong was very satisfied with the effect. He looked at several concubines and asked, "Your Majesty, it is better not to let them see it. Women are prone to brain disease when they are frightened."

"Zhou Aiqing is right, sister-in-law and queen, don't read it. Wang Cheng'en, passed on my oral instructions that pets are prohibited in the harem, and all cats and dogs are sent out of the palace." Emperor Chongzhen could not tell the little bugs that were parasites, but he had already believed that what Zhou Shixiong said was that these little bugs were the culprits who killed many princes and princesses of the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, it is not enough to just ban pets. I have a hygiene manual here, which stipulates various hygiene standards in detail. As long as the people in the palace follow this regulation, I believe that the future princes and princesses will no longer have to worry about these little bugs." Zhou Shixiong wrote an environmental sanitation and personal hygiene manual last night. Anyway, there are chips to provide information, so he just wrote it out.

"Okay, Wang Cheng'en, hand this manual to Xu Yingyuan and tell him that the 24th Superintendent must follow this manual, and if there is any violation, they will be severely punished." Emperor Chongzhen would no longer doubt Zhou Shixiong's advice on medical and health care. As long as Zhou Shixiong said, he would fully support it.

After solving the most dangerous pet, Zhou Shixiong began to perform physical examinations for the concubines. In order to avoid suspicion, Zhou Shixiong asked everyone to come to Kunning Palace for physical examinations, and Empress Yian and Empress Zhou must have at least one of them present. This is Wang Chengen's private reminding him not to do bad things with kindness.

In order to be serious, Zhou Shixiong completed the physical examination in three days and prescribed a lot of prescriptions, mainly for the treatment of gynecological diseases. Doctor Zhu became addicted as an assistant and followed Zhou Shixiong happily every day. Seeing that the old man was still a little valuable, Zhou Shixiong simply wrote a booklet on the prevention and treatment of gynecological diseases.

Five days after entering the palace, Zhou Shixiong finally got all the women out of the Forbidden City and could leave the Forbidden City to return to the inn. In the inn, he saw the frowning teacher Sun Chuanting. "Teacher, don't you have to be on duty today?"

"Oh, don't mention it. Yesterday, Long Live was furious at the court meeting and issued an order to take away all the titles of Minister Liu of the Ministry of Rites and wait for the participants. And also issued an order to suspend all officials recommended by Mr. Liu to attend the meeting. Teacher, I don't have to be on duty!" Sun Chuanting was in a bad mood. Seeing that the teacher was about to be reinstated, he was thinking of helping the teacher. Unexpectedly, he would be involved in the case of corruption and injustice because of Lord Liu!

Zhou Shixiong thought about it. Yesterday and today Emperor Chongzhen was very happy. There was no sign of being angry. This kid became the actor? "Teacher, Lord Liu's official voice is very good. How could he anger the emperor?"

Sun Chuanting shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Mr. Liu is too upset. It is not surprising that he said something that made Long Sui angry." Many people knew the remarks asking the emperor. The young officials felt that Mr. Liu was right, and the emperor refused to issue the treasury. The old fox who had been in the officialdom for many years was waiting to see how Emperor Chongzhen refuted. They knew who was right and who was wrong, and they just wanted to see a joke.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongzhen was very smart. He did not debate with Liu Hongxun about the affairs of the treasury. Instead, he used a gentleman to tell his father's faults to be done by a gentleman? Behind him, is it a gentleman to criticize whether the king and father are done by a gentleman? If you think that doing things is not hindered, you are right.

Liu Hongxun also wanted to quote the classics. Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and threw all the self-defense memorials written by Liu Hongxun down the imperial case. "Liu Hongxun is not afraid of the emperor and acts dirty. I think you have worked hard for the court for many years. I will not kill you, so I will go back and wait for the party." These contents were told by Sun Chuanting and Fang Zhenghua respectively that Sun Chuanting's rank was too low and there was no chance to attend the court.

"I don't care about Lord Liu, I just want to help the teacher. Xiao Fang, please help me with the emperor and ask if I can let my teacher go?" Zhou Shixiong was really not familiar with Liu Hongxun, and he had no idea of ​​standing up for him. Moreover, Liu Hongxun's reason made Zhou Shixiong very annoyed. He didn't hear that the monarch was obliged to spend private money on the military.

A few days later, Liu Hongxun was driven back to his hometown, Shandong. It is said that the cabinet assistants asked Emperor Chongzhen to plead with him to preserve his reputation as a Jinshi. It turned out that Emperor Chongzhen did not even plan to stay for Liu Hongxun, and let him return to his hometown naked. It seems that he was really angry.

Liu Hongxun got out, and the others' opinions on handling were also released. It is said that Sichuan Governor Tian Yang, who sent Liu Hongxun two thousand gold, was seized, and Deputy Censor Jia Yuxiang was appointed as the army. Sun Chuanting was not only the head of the Ministry of Examination, but also allowed the magistrate of Jiading. The first two were seized and served as the magistrate, and Sun Chuanting went out of the capital to become the magistrate. No matter how you look at Emperor Chongzhen gave Zhou Shixiong face. It is hard to say whether it is specific.

Zhou Shixiong sent Sun Chuanting away and submitted a memorial to Emperor Chongzhen. The content was about the urgent need of population craftsmen in Xiangzhou. At the end of the memorial, Zhou Shixiong said that he wanted to go home and his child should be born. Emperor Chongzhen asked Wang Chengen to send a bunch of congratulatory gifts to Zhou Shixiong, asking Zhou Shixiong to stay until the prince was full moon before leaving. This request was not too much, and Zhou Shixiong could only agree.

Originally, Zhou Shixiong had few acquaintances in the capital, but now even his master has left, so he has to stay in the inn every day. Liu Zeqing comes to greet him every day, and Zuo Liangyu also comes with him by chance. Zhou Shixiong has to socialize these two people. After all, Zhou Shixiong wants to recruit Zuo Liangyu, but it is not good to put on airs. After getting familiar with each other, Zhou Shixiong understands why Liu Zeqing always comes to him.

It turned out that Liu Zeqing was once a slave to Guo Yunhou, the former Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. When he was a scholar, he showed his talent. Guo Yunhou cherished his talent, helped him get a slave, and sent him to work as a servant under the governor of Sichuan Wang Sanshan. At the age of 21, Liu Zeqing only got a scholar's fame, Wang Sanshan gave him an official position in the general banner and sent him to Liu Cangyu, the governor of the governor. Governor Liu asked him to run errands in the governor's yamen. Liu Zeqing was unwilling to leave Guo Yunhou's relationship and transferred to Ning Qianwei.

Liu Zeqing worked hard to climb to the garrison officer, but his backer fell. He could have been the logistics chief because he had a way to become the capital, but now everyone is avoiding him. The fat man in the garrison cannot be saved. The reason for pestering Zhou Shixiong is that Zhou Shixiong is both an imperial envoy and a real commander. This extraordinary treatment made Liu Zeqing smell a little, thinking that Zhou Shixiong's backstage was very tough.

"Ziqi, why haven't you been looking for me? Do you look down on my brother?" On September 20th, Lu Xiangsheng came to visit. As soon as he met, he gave Zhou Shixiong a high hat. "Don't blame Brother Jiandou, I didn't go out because of the teacher's affairs."

As the prefect of Daming Prefecture, Lu Xiangsheng often went to the capital to do business and was very clear about the changes in the capital. Whether this matter is big or small, Lu Xiangsheng knew some inside stories, "Ziqi, your teacher has just suffered an undesperate disaster, and can only blame his bad luck. Since the matter has passed, don't mention it again, tell me about your affairs."

"What's wrong with me?" Zhou Shixiong really didn't understand what special thoughts Lu Xiangsheng had.

"Zi Qi has kept it so hard for me. If I hadn't had the close friendship between the Imperial Doctor Zhu and my father, I wouldn't have known the ability of the Imperial Doctor Zhou!" Damn, the Imperial Doctor Zhu actually betrayed me?! Zhou Shixiong has always pretended to be a charlatan but doesn't want to treat people everywhere, especially this kind of request that is not a sympathetic.

Taking a deep breath to calm down, Zhou Shixiong knew that the invitation could not be pushed, so he had to laugh and said, "There is a reason for this. I hope Brother Jiandou should not be offended. I wonder what Brother Jiandou needs my help?"

"Zi Qi responded? Doctor Zhu said that Zi Qi responded and said that nothing happened!" It seems that Doctor Zhu provided package service, and even thought about how to force Zhou Shixiong to agree.

"What's the matter first." Zhou Shixiong was in a bad mood and naturally felt unhappy. Lu Xiangsheng didn't care. He left the seat and walked to the side and knelt down, "Please save my old mother's life." Then he rang three times.

Zhou Shixiong quickly stood up and helped Lu Xiangsheng up, "Brother Jiandou, since I promised you, why bother like this?"

"Zi Qi's great kindness is unforgettable. This ceremony must be performed. I wonder when Zi Qi will leave?" Lu Xiangsheng was very anxious. Zhou Shixiong had nothing to do anyway. He asked his personal soldiers to pack his luggage. Liu Zeqing and Zuo Liangyu both heard the news and hurried out to ask. He heard that Zhou Shixiong was going to Daming Mansion, but Liu Zeqing was very disappointed. He still had official duties and could not leave the capital and could not continue to establish relationships with Zhou Shixiong.

Zuo Liangyu seemed to have opened her mind and asked Zhou Shixiong in a low voice, "Master Zhou, can you take the official to Daming Mansion to open your eyes?" Zuo Liangyu came to the door and Zhou Shixiong would certainly not push out, so he nodded and agreed.

The group left the inn under Liu Zeqing's envious and jealous eyes, and rode out of the capital and headed towards Daming Mansion.

What Zhou Shixiong didn't know was that on this day, Huang Taiji, the ruler of the Later Jin Kingdom, mobilized 20,000 Mongolian cavalry to enter the Mongolian grassland, intending to bypass the Ningjin defense line and enter the pass from Duoyan's troops. Huang Taiji must thank two people for being able to implement this big plan, one is Yuan Chonghuan, who is wise and martial, and the other is Fan Wencheng, the first person in the Later Jin Wenguan. Yuan Chonghuan's achievements are to eliminate hidden dangers in the Later Jin and allow the Later Jin to take out all his strength to take this adventure.

Fan Wencheng's achievements lie in proposing a strategy of avoiding the real and vain. He did not fight a siege with the Ming army, but instead found ways to mobilize the Ming army and eliminate the Ming army's strength in the field. The reason why Yuan Chonghuan was placed ahead of Fan Wencheng was because without Yuan Chonghuan's help, even if Fan Wencheng was very smart, he could not mobilize the Ming army to eliminate the Ming army. Therefore, the first time the Later Jin Tartars went south was Yuan Chonghuan.

ps: Let me state this first. I hate Yuan Chonghuan extremely. It is necessary to hack this guy. If someone doesn’t like me doing this, please go to the book review area to curse people. Thank you.
