Qin Ming saw that he had been in the Ministry of Rites for so long, and he had been doing things for Qin Ming wholeheartedly, and Qin Ming forgave his son.

And this matter is in the past.

However, one of the ministers came out and said:

"Your Majesty, Celestial Princess, no, Eldest Princess...... Really dead? ”

Everyone looked at Qin Ming, Qin Ming took a deep breath and looked at the little princess on the side.

Seeing that she still had a sad look, she couldn't bear it, but she still said: "Yes, eldest princess, she died in Xicang Kingdom, no wonder others, it's her, do it yourself!" ”

Qin Ming didn't talk to everyone about Chu Lan's death, but the news of Xicang Kingdom would naturally reach Chu State, so everyone had heard about it.

However, in Xicang Kingdom, Chu Lan's death is a mystery, and many people, including the new emperor of Xicang, thought that it was the cave room that caused the death of the bride because he was too fierce on the night of candles.

However, some people know very well that this cannot be the case.

But, tacitly, don't blow the face of Emperor Xicang! Now, these ministers of Chu basically don't believe that Chu Lan was killed by a cave.

It's just that everyone didn't deliberately understand, just to make sure that she was really dead.

At most, just a sigh.

Qin Ming didn't say much, everyone continued to drink and chat, and the atmosphere eased again.

Full of wine and food, the ministers are also much more natural, chatting with each other and talking nonsense.

Among them, a new bachelor in the cabinet got up and arched his hand to Qin Ming and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a few words, I want to take the opportunity to talk about it!" ”

"Say it!" Qin Ming nodded, someone said something, it's a good thing.

The scholar nodded: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that our Chu State is too sharp, and we need to be more restrained, otherwise, the minister is worried that it will provoke some terrible powers that we can't face until now." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at this scholar, not because they felt that there was something wrong with what he said, but because they all felt that what he said was right, and during this time, most people had this feeling in their hearts.

Too bright a light to suddenly shine from a dim stone may not be a good thing.

Qin Ming nodded slightly: "Go on!" ”

"Your Majesty, the secrets of your body are feared by all countries, and likewise, coveted and wanted. Also, the rumored public opinion of the elixir of immortality has gradually locked the palace of Chu again.

In addition, the Chu State has recently conquered several countries in the southern and northern wars, and its development is too fast, and its achievements are too dazzling, which makes people jealous. Finally, the paper printing technology of the Chu State, as well as the coal mining industry, etc., are very popular things.

Even, including our bombs. In short, all of this will attract everyone's attention. Today someone will come to ask for paper-making and printing, and tomorrow someone may come to ask for bomb-making technology.

And what about the day after tomorrow? What about the outer heavens? What about later? Perhaps someone will come and ask us for the so-called elixir of immortality, and the strange and very attractive things that Your Majesty has.

If the country that we can cope with at the moment comes, then it is enough, and there is nothing to fear. I'm afraid that these things will attract greater powers. So-called, it's a crime......"

After the scholar finished speaking, he looked at Qin Ming fixedly.

Qin Ming exhaled, looked at the ministers who were all nodding slightly, and said, "I understand this truth. Today's Chu State is no longer just the Chu State that was only the boss in the surrounding twenty countries.

Today's Chu State is already one of the best among the surrounding fifty or more countries, and can be ranked in the top fifty of nearly 1,000 countries in the entire southwest.

Indeed, we have entered a larger circle, facing more attention and more terrible risks. What Aiqing just said is very good, the better we are, the more attention we have, the more we should guard against it. ”

Speaking of this, Qin Ming himself has a headache, but if a country wants to develop, an industry like papermaking and printing books must prosper.

If you want the country to be strong, you have to make bombs.

Something like immortal medicine, paper can't hold the fire, and there will definitely be people who will suspect that the Chu Imperial Palace has it, even if it is just possible, there must be people who want to find it.

As for some of Qin Ming's own peculiarities and some strange things, they are also what he has to use by himself many times.

In other words, many things cannot be avoided.

All they can do is keep a low profile as much as possible.

Forward in the low-key, strong in the low-key.

So, Qin Ming thought about these problems and made some countermeasures.

First of all, bombs, this thing is the most important thing.

If the production method is mastered by other countries, then Qin Ming can basically announce that his plan to strengthen the country is over.

Therefore, the production method and process of the bomb, and even the formula of raw materials, etc., must be in the hands of a few credible people in the military department of the Chu State.

This part of the people is the most secret person in the Chu State, and they are absolutely not allowed to divulge their secrets.

This point, Qin Ming emphasized countless times, and the military department Shangshu also did a good job, and the method of making the bomb was basically impossible to leak.

Qin Ming is also relatively reassuring.

Because it is a top secret, except for a few high-ranking officials in the Ministry of War, basically no one knows who is making the bomb.

This group of bomb makers is like a group of people who don't exist.

In addition, it is paper printing.

These techniques are mastered by those who have followed Qin Ming's factory from the beginning.

Qin Ming saved their lives at the beginning, and their loyalty to Qin Ming is self-evident. In addition, there are soldiers to protect the factory, so under normal circumstances, it is impossible for anyone to enter and steal this technology.

Qin Ming also ordered the Dark Web Division to send people to guard the paper printing factory.

Besides, paper making and printing don't just look at it, you have to be taught how to make these tools.

In other words, you find someone who can make paper and print, and you have a hammer to use, and the key is these tools.

These two important technologies have been guaranteed, which makes Qin Ming feel more at ease.

Moreover, he also immediately ordered that the bombs of Chu and the paper-making and printing technology must be kept secret and not allowed to be said to the outside world. Isn't it the old way to make paper and then copy it manually?

As for bombs, have you ever seen them? We don't know anyway......

After all, most of the people who have seen the bombs have been killed.

The news of the immortal medicine, Qin Ming couldn't help it.

As for his secrets, try not to reveal them in front of the public.

In addition, Qin Ming also realized that the state of Chu should develop steadily.

Nowadays, the only thing that can be used externally in the private economy is food.

Paper, books, and coal mines have nothing to do with ordinary people.

Qin Ming thought about it, to drive the economy of the entire Chu State, in this era, there is only industry.

So, Qin Ming made another decision, he was going to study the production methods of some things in modern society, so that all parts of Chu could build up industry and have an industrial reform!
