Zhu Houzhao was trying to use radio to communicate with the prince Zhu Yijian who was far away in Tianjin.

This is the latest technology of the Ming Dynasty. Decades after Zhu Houzhao proposed the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction, the Ming Dynasty has made great progress in the field of electromagnetics, and has also made in-depth research on mechanical waves. Now, radio communication technology has also been invented. Of course, the current development of electrical science in the Ming Dynasty is not unrelated.

"The Supreme Emperor, we have successfully received the radio wave." At this time, Ni Si, a researcher from the Academy of Sciences, ran in and reported to Zhu Houzhao happily.

Zhu Houzhao also smiled happily and hurriedly asked Ni Si to immediately compare the translation and translate the information revealed by the radio wave, although he actually knew the content of the radio wave.

Not long after, Ni Si ran from the radio room again: "The Supreme Emperor, we translated it out, it is the same as the content we made in advance."

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but say: "Very good! In this way, I finally crossed the audio-visual distance in the field of communications after the Ming Dynasty. Ni Si, I will allocate another 500,000 silver dollars to you and establish radio technology between the capital and Nanjing immediately!"

Ni Si nodded: "Please rest assured, I will definitely set up radio communications as soon as possible."

Zhu Houzhao immediately asked Ni Si to send a message to Zhu Yijian, but when Ni Si just returned to the radio room, he hurried out and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, we just received a different message from Tianjin. The translation turned out to be: Zhao Wenhua was killed by Qi Jiguang!"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but feel a little slap in his heart, thinking what was going on, how could Zhao Wenhua be killed by Qi Jiguang? Will there be any error in spreading the message? Qi Jiguang was killed by Zhao Wenhua. After all, in history, there were civil officials who killed military generals in the Ming Dynasty, and even those at the level of the general were killed.

"Send a message immediately to ask, confirm whether Zhao Wenhua was killed by Qi Jiguang or Qi Jiguang killed by Zhao Wenhua. Ask the reason, and immediately inform the emperor of the possibility of one of Qi Jiguang and Zhao Wenhua being killed!"

Zhu Houzhao immediately ordered and thought to himself: "Don't kill Qi Jiguang! Zhao Wenhua is not a pity for death! Qi Jiguang is a military genius, and he still expects Qi Jiguang to march into the Western Regions after destroying the Japanese and sweep Tsarist Russia. After all, commanders like Qi Jiguang who are good at both north and south in history are rare. The Ming Dynasty has not been established for two hundred years. If Zhao Wenhua dares to do this, I will definitely let him be even more Yuan Chonghuan and be lingchi!"

But immediately Zhu Houzhao also regained some rationality and thought that with Zhao Wenhua's current power, he could not kill Qi Jiguang, but he was not so stupid that he had the right to take action before taking action. He sent generals to the war to do things. The first thing he considered was efficiency, and checks and balances were only secondary.

In any case, Ni Si soon took a telegram to Zhu Hou to take care of: "Report to the Emperor, the Crown Prince has learned from the post station's communications soldiers that Qi Jiguang killed Zhao Wenhua! The reason was that Zhao Wenhua owed wages, which caused workers to cause trouble in the military camp, which affected military-civilian relations, almost delayed the military opportunity. In order to calm the public's grievances, Zhao Wenhua violated military discipline and was to behead him according to military laws!"

Ni Si also said it himself when Zhu Houzhao watched it himself, and at the same time he secretly wondered: "In so many years of the Ming Dynasty, he has never heard of a military general who dared to kill civil officials, let alone killing the Minister of Works. He doesn't know what the end of Qi Jiguang will be, and how the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty will deal with this matter."

Zhu Houzhao did not show her joy, anger, sorrow and happiness, but waved her hand and said lightly: "I understand."

But in his heart, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "Okay, what a Qi Jiguang! He is worthy of being a famous general! The ancients said that ci was not in charge of soldiers. Now I can see that if this guy really had a chance, even the Minister of Works would dare to kill him! However, this also shows that the relationship between civil and military under his rule has indeed changed. You must know that in the Ming Dynasty, even Qi Jiguang, who had made outstanding contributions, had to curry favor with the cabinet master!"

Here, Zhu Zailii was discussing matters with Xu Jie at this time, and he dared to decide to let Xu Gang, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Works, replace Zhao Wenhua, the Minister of the Ministry of Works. Xu Jie was naturally not satisfied with this. Although he knew that this was the decision of the Supreme Emperor Zhu Houzhao and it was difficult for him to violate it, he still said:

"The Emperor of the Supreme Emperor has really worked hard for the Ming Dynasty. He is nearly 80 years old and still does not forget to supervise the government. Even the appointment of officials in charge of engineering construction in the army must be checked personally. It seems that the destruction of the Japanese will be sure to be foolproof."

Zhu Zailei naturally knew that Xu Jie had something in his words and was provoking his relationship with his father. He said that his father had clearly abdicated but he was still so lenient. Even officials of Zhao Wenhua's level still had to take care of him.

But Zhu Zailii didn't dare to say anything. After all, in front of people who have the ability to absolutely kill him, sometimes complaining and dissatisfaction are useless, and even causing greater losses. Therefore, Zhu Zailii also flattered:

"The Supreme Emperor is naturally not Emperor Ming of Tang, Emperor Gaozong of Song, and the Ming Dynasty is also thanks to his longevity. Otherwise, the world that was changing so quickly would have been in chaos. The Supreme Emperor has been five hundred years older than our prophets, and only he can see many things."

Xu Jie nodded. He admitted that Emperor Zhu Zailei was right and knew that Emperor Zhu Zailei was helpless. "I hope the Supreme Emperor will live forever and continue to live a long life!"

Politicians have to understand the opposite of their words. When scolding you, they really value you as their own people, and praise you for flattering you, and killing people with a smile. Now, Zhu Zailei naturally understands what Xu Jie said that it is better to think that the Supreme Emperor will leave early.

Zhu Zailei was not angry either, but just smiled. To the eyes of others, he seemed to be very cowardly, so cowardly that he was neither angry because Xu Jie wanted his father to live long, and he was not happy because Xu Jie did not want his father to live long.

At this moment, An Neihuan ran in and reported to the news that Zhu Houzhao Rang had conveyed.

"What, Qi Jiguang or Zhao Wenhua were beheaded?"

Zhu Zailie stood up in a hurry and said, "No, how did the Supreme Emperor know? I, the Privy Council and even the Ministry of War, don't know about this?"

"Radio, Your Highness the Crown Prince has been accompanying the Supreme Emperor to conduct radio recently. It was the news that Your Highness the Crown Prince came back from Tianjin. It is expected that he will receive an urgent report tomorrow." The inner official replied.

Zhu Zailii then remembered that this was the case. Because of the application of electricity, the Emperor of the Supreme Emperor took his son to follow up on scientific research every day in the past few days. He also took him to inspect major scientific research institutions, held commendation meetings, and even spilled money everywhere. He was very popular with the great masters of the Ming Dynasty who had become increasingly noble recently, and also envied Confucian teachers who only rely on their salary and selling ethical and moral brainwashing books to make money.

Recently, my father and son are using radio and want to build a radio network. A few days ago, I compiled a unified translation, saying that people can deliver messages thousands of miles away and send them back in an instant.

Zhu Zailei naturally didn't want to ask if this radio technology really exists and can really achieve the effect of telepathy for thousands of miles. Instead, he wanted to confirm whether one of Qi Jiguang and Zhao Wenhua was really killed. He hurriedly ordered: "Li Fang, tell me immediately when there is any news."

As he said that, Zhu Zailei asked Xu Jie: "Gei Master Xu, what do you think about this?"

Xu Jie was also surprised and couldn't believe it at first, but then said: "Your Majesty, from my opinion, if this matter is true, it is very likely that the person who was killed was Zhao Wenhua, the Minister of Works of the Ministry of Works. These military officers have always been arrogant and domineering and difficult to control. Now, once they have the power, they will inevitably do something that will not be given to the outside king's order. Whether Zhao Wenhua is guilty or not, this is the first time for our Ming Dynasty military generals to kill civil officials! And they can kill senior officials in the ministry!"

Zhu Zailei nodded. He felt that Xu Jie was right. If Zhao Wenhua was really killed by Qi Jiguang, it would be a precedent.

At this moment, Zhu Zailii couldn't calm down. He didn't know why. Although he was not sure whether this was true, he was already unsure at this time and had to come to the Royal West Garden to find Zhu Houzhao on the excuse to see what the radio technology is. In fact, he wanted to ask Zhu Houzhao for his opinion.

"Father, can you really know what people thousands of miles away say through electromagnetic waves? But you can't hear what you say except for the sound of the sound?"

Zhu Zailien has limited knowledge of natural science, and although Zhu Houzhao is a science student, he only knows that electromagnetic waves can convey information, such as radio stations in modern TV series and telephones used by his later generations, so he did not spread these to Zhu Zailien, and only mentioned some of the concepts of electromagnetics they knew to the craftsmen of this era who were conducting this research.

Therefore, at this time, Zhu Zailii still remains suspicious of this.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "The communication technology of the Ming Dynasty has not yet developed to the point where you can hear what people thousands of miles away say, but I believe it will be possible in the future, and I can even see what they are doing."

Zhu Zailei didn't know why his father was almost eighty and was still thinking about something that seemed ridiculous, but he couldn't say anything. He just responded casually and asked: "I heard from Chen Hong that my father knew from the prince that Qi Jiguang and Zhao Wenhua were beheaded?"

Seeing that his emperor's son was not interested in the phone and smartphone that would definitely appear in the future, Zhu Zailei had to change the topic and nodded and said:

"This matter has been determined to be that Qi Jiguang executed Zhao Wenhua on the grounds that he violated military discipline. This is reasonable in the constitution. After all, the army is quite special! Now it is estimated that local civil servants will find it difficult to accept it. Perhaps it is difficult for all people in the world to accept it, but this matter is not a big deal. Zhao Wenhua violated military discipline. Not to mention that he is the Minister of Works, even if he is a minister of the Ministry of Works, there is no one in the world who is superior."

"The father said very well. My son was just wondering if you are crazy about your father. How can you tell the truth based on this sound? No matter Qi Jiguang or Zhao Wenhua, no one dares to kill each other, right?" Zhu Zailei asked, and he still couldn't believe the news.

"There is nothing that you dare not do. The general-level military general and the civil servants at the Chancellor level of the Pavilion Minister, sometimes no one can escape if they want to kill each other, after all, they can't be killed!"

After Zhu Houzhao said this, Zhu Zailei just responded and found a reason to go back to the palace. The news that the Supreme Emperor Zhu Houzhao learned through the radio still made him not very sure.

But in the middle of the night, Li Fang, the admiral of the Western Factory, hurriedly found him: "Your Majesty, just now, the eight hundred miles of urgent delivery came, Qi Jiguang did kill Zhao Wenhua, the Minister of Works."

As Li Fang said that, she handed the seal on the protection to Emperor Zhu Zailei urgently.

Emperor Zhu Zailei was so scared that he sat up and hurriedly sat up: "This, this, this is actually true?! Radio, Qi Jiguang killed Zhao Wenhua. No wonder Xu Jie said yesterday that there was such a possibility. Now it really happened. Qi Jiguang dared to kill the second-rank civil servant in the court! What kind of storm will this cause?"

Zhu Houzhao had a good time tonight and was not sleeping yet. She was holding a Japanese girl and gnawing her, showing her strength, but at this time, she heard the crackling sound of the door outside. He had to get up and ask, "Who, why are you doing so late? You don't have to disturb the old man's rest! Come in!"

After Zhu Houzhao said that, Zhu Zailei hurriedly walked in and bowed to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Father, my son takes the liberty to disturb him late at night. I hope my father will forgive me. My father has indeed had the technology of transmitting messages for thousands of miles. What he said is true. Qi Jiguang, Qi Jiguang really killed Zhao Wenhua! What should I do? I also ask my father to decide whether to call Qi Jiguang back to the capital to find out the situation?"

"What are you asking? Is Zhao Wenhua important or the destiny of the Ming Dynasty more important? It will be outside, and the king will not give any advice. At this time, even if Qi Jiguang pierces the sky, he will not be able to touch him!"

After Zhu Houzhao said this, he felt that this sentence was somewhat inconsistent with the thoughts of some people, such as whether it is more important, the dignity of the common people or the rise of a great power, that is, Zhao Wenhua's life is not important. But now, from the perspective of his Supreme Emperor and his emperor's son, it is true that Zhao Wenhua was killed. Instead, it is more important to transfer Qi Jiguang back to disrupt the deployment of destroying the Japanese.

However, Emperor Zhu Zailei still agreed with Zhu Houzhao's view. As the emperor, he was influenced by the new era ideas and received new education and was able to accept the idea that all Han people are equal. However, he still instinctively felt that Zhao Wenhua's life was indeed more important than the entire Ming Dynasty's combat plan, and more importantly, Zhao Wenhua did violate military discipline.

So, Zhu Zailei nodded and asked again: "According to the father's wishes?"

"To adapt to all changes, civil officials have always suppressed military officers. Now military officers have risen locally, and they are even at the point of killing civil officials. This shows that civil and military officials have checked and balanced each other. As emperors, they should neither help civil officials punish military officers, so that civil officials will continue to not take military officers into their eyes, but they cannot help military generals. Don't take this to help Qi Jiguang punish civil officials who take the opportunity to make trouble, sit in the mountains and watch tiger fights, and let civil and military officials make trouble. Let civil and military officials see who is more powerful now, which Ming Dynasty, which pays attention to human rights in everything! Are civil and military equal? ​​"

As Zhu Houzhao said that, he went into the bed tent and began to fight with the Japanese girl. Zhu Zailie had to bow and leave, and ordered Li Fang, the West Factory: "The movements of these civil servants have been more closely watching than before."
