The impeller rotates underwater, driving the winch on the water surface. The winch drives the hammer head to rise, and there is a gap on the winch. After the hammer head reaches the highest point, it just allows the rope to slide off, and then the hammer head hits it.

When Zhu Youjian looked at the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but be amazed at the wisdom of the ancient working people. They did not understand modern technology, but could create a hydraulic stamping machine of very good quality, which opened his eyes!

"Does there be any sample of this cast font mold?" Zhu Youjian asked.

"Please see your Majesty."

After a moment, Song Yingxing took a rectangular steel bar from a craftsman and presented it to Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian took it and saw that the movable type on the steel bars were similar to regular script, with round and full fonts, which was pleasing to the eye.

"It's not bad, but these words are a bit too many strokes. Not only are they exhausted, but it is not convenient for ordinary people to practice calligraphy. It would be even better if they could create a simplified Chinese character." Zhu Youjian pondered.

"Your Majesty, changing the font rashly will inevitably be opposed by Shi Lin. Please think twice!" Song Yingxing quickly persuaded.

Of course, Song Yingxing knew that the simpler the font, the easier it was to increase the literacy rate of the people. However, most scholars and scholars were stubborn and conservative, and rashly changed the text left by their ancestors. Song Yingxing was chilling when he thought about it, as if he had seen a surging public opinion frenzy towards him.

Zhu Youjian considered it and felt that his strength is not enough now. Ridiculously going to war with Shilin without the support of the army will only make the situation more turbulent and the court unstable.

So he accepted the advice and nodded, "Tell me this beforehand and discuss it later. The time is indeed not yet ripe."

Sun Yuanhua watched the hammers fall over and over again, and the brilliance in his eyes became more and more orange, and he couldn't help but suggest to Zhu Youjian: "Your Majesty, I see that the hydraulic punching technique can not only be used to cast word molds, but if it is used to cast armored weapons, or artillery barrels, and musket barrels, its quality will definitely be far better than the weapons made by the craftsmen of the Ministry of War!"

Zhu Youjian nodded to Sun Yuanhua with great praise. Sun Yuanhua's ability to associate it with hydraulic stamping to weapon casting is worthy of being the leading arms expert in the Ming Dynasty in this era.

Then, Zhu Youjian warned everyone: "What the ministers see today must not be spread to outsiders. Sun Bingbei was right. This hydraulic punching technique was a powerful weapon of the Ming Dynasty's military and national security, and was the first-class military secret of the Ming Dynasty."

The emperor raised the hydraulic stamping technology to the point of a military and national heavy weapon. Naturally, everyone did not dare to neglect it and quickly responded: "I will follow the order!"

...

In the Beizhen Fushishi Zhao Prison Prison, Zhao Qiaowei's eyes have not been closed for two days and two nights.

Although the Jinyiwei did not torture him after he arrested Zhao Qiaowei in prison, he did not know which bad idea came up with by Kill Qiandao. He specifically lit an eternal lamp in the dark interrogation room, and then used extremely sticky tape to separate his eyelids so that he could not close his eyes.

The long-term opening of his eyes made Zhao Qiaowei extremely devastated, both physically and mentally, and both physically and mentally exhausted.

At this moment, he felt like he could close his eyes and sleep for a big night, which was beyond his reach.

"At this time, don't you admit to killing people? Miao Gang has admitted that, under your instigation, they have killed a total of 18 victims' families. The murderer who killed people on the same day has confessed. The murder is all for your instructions!" Xu Xianchun accused with righteousness.

"I... I just issued an order to set up a checkpoint to intercept them and capture them back to Baoding Mansion. But I really didn't order to kill people! Maybe... they were greedy for the money they had brought with them, so they killed them."

Zhao Qiaowei was very smart. Although the Ming Dynasty was extremely strict in accepting bribes at the beginning of its founding, in this era, officials' acceptance of bribes and benefits have almost increased from unspoken rules to clear rules. Even if he received 100,000 taels of bribes, the amount was very large, at best, he was sentenced to exile on the frontier, and what could he do to him!

As for the crime of killing the victim's family, he must not admit it. After all, since ancient times, murder has been paid for his life. If he is confirmed to kill the family members of the 18 victims, the emperor will sentence him to beheading and show his name to the public, and no one can say anything.

"Then have you admitted to accepting Bai Yi's bribe of 100,000 taels of silver?" Xu Xianchun said.

Zhao Qiaowei really wants to say that it is very common for your Jinyiwei to accept bribes, okay?

In the Ming Dynasty, the benefits of accepting bribes are extremely common in any yamen. On the contrary, officials who do not accept bribes have long disappeared in the officialdom. Even if there are a few stubborn and honest officials, they are definitely excluded and persecuted by the officialdom and cannot survive in the officialdom.

Zhao Qiaowei was illuminated by the light for two days and two nights, and his emotions were almost broken. He didn't think it was too much for accepting bribes, so he nodded in a scattered manner and said, "That's right, I admit that he had indeed accepted a bribe of 100,000 taels of silver from Bai Yi, the eunuch of the Maqiao Royal Village, and so he sent someone to set up a checkpoint on the road leading to the capital of Baoding to capture the families of the victims who went to Beijing to file a lawsuit.

But I absolutely did not give orders to kill the victim's family. This was all Si Yu Miao Gang framed me. Although I accepted bribes, I really did not instruct anyone to kill me!"

Xu Xianchun smiled with satisfaction: "Very good. Since you admit to accepting bribes, then sign and seal it. After that, the case will be handed over to the Three Courts for the crime."

After saying that, Xu Xianchun and Cao Huachun left the interrogation room, leaving Zhao Qiaowei with a confused look on his face.

"This... I'm leaving? Isn't it just accepting a bribe of 100,000 taels? As for torture me for two days and two nights? If so, I'd have confessed long ago! Why have I suffered from the torture of these two days and two nights?"

Zhao Qiaowei was depressed.

...

"Eunuch Cao, now you know you're wrong. Zhao Qiaowei is a corrupt official. You want to protect him wrongly." Xu Xianchun smiled with a hint of pride on the corner of his mouth.

"Oh!" Cao Huachun sighed and said, "I know people but not my heart. I didn't expect that Zhao Qiaowei, as a member of the Donglin Party, would accept bribes.

But our family can't figure it out. Zhao Qiaowei is really not short of money. He was born in Suzhou, the world's most wealthy place. His family has fertile land, and there are hundreds of shops of all sizes. Why should he be greedy for Bai Yi's 100,000 taels of bribe?!"

Xu Xianchun said: "Eunuch Cao, although you are older than someone, your understanding of human nature is not as deep as that of someone. Someone has tried hundreds of Donglin Party members in the Jinyiwei, including true gentlemen and great husbands who are not afraid of life and death, such as Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, Yuan Huazhong, Wei Dazhong, Zhou Chaorui, Gu Dazhang, etc. Even if someone is an enemy of them, he has to praise a hero.

But they are only a few, and they expose the ugliness of human nature under Sanmu. As for a certain Donglin Party member who was interrogated, the evil things Zhao Qiaowei did are not the most outrageous, and many people have committed far above him."

"It's impossible." Cao Huachun shook his head and said, "Our family still believes that the Donglin Party has many good people, and the bad people are just a small group of people."

"Haha." Xu Xianchun sneered: "Then I and Eunuch Cao will wait and see, let time prove who is right and who is wrong?"
