249 And when the term of March expired, all things went well
Liu Ye asked Russell's intentions, he smiled slightly, and said: "At noon today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince made it clear to the emperor that his fleet had successfully returned from an ocean-going expedition and had signed trade agreements with several coastal tribes in the ocean. β
When Wang Yuhe heard this, he quickly sat up straight.
"Then the emperor wants to hear the specific situation, when I came out of the capital, the emperor had already announced the king into the palace."
Wang Yuhe quickly glanced at Liu Ye and thought that it would be three months, and sure enough, in three months, one day is no more, one day is not less.
It is estimated that the prince has already planned to find an opportunity on the day of Laba. As for why it took three months, Russell explained that there were a lot of people who needed to be hidden before anyone else knew about it.
In addition, the things brought back from the ocean need to be classified, and the information and intelligence also need to be sorted out, so that they can be more relaxed in three months.
Russell said very tactfully, Liu Ye estimated that the prince should keep some of the goods he brought back, so he was picky and picky, and he also needed to check it well all the way through the ocean.
"I'll come over first to report the news, Your Highness is afraid that you will be anxious to wait. As for the news of the afternoon, the shadow will bring it over at night. Russell said, glancing at Hu Xu: "So please ask Miss Wang to find me a place to rest." β
"This is natural, sir..." Before Wang Yuhe finished arranging, Brother Ding hurriedly said: "My father-in-law lives with me!" β
Russell didn't know why, and said with a smile: "Okay, my father-in-law is trying to check Brother Ding'er's homework." β
Liu Ye sighed that the emotional intelligence of people with good brains is not very high, so he looked at the embarrassed Wang Yuhe's own eyes breathing fire Hu Xu, and coughed lightly: "This... Brother Ding is still young, and he currently lives in the same courtyard with my sister Yuhe. β
When Russell heard this, he looked at Wang Yuhe, who was blushing, and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I... I don't know about this situation. β
"Brother Ding, if you want to live with your father-in-law, do you want to go to the guest house where your father-in-law lives?" Liu Ye asked.
Brother Ding looked at Wang Yuhe and then at Russell, and said aggrievedly: "Can't we live together?" β
Everyone was speechless, and Hu Xu hurriedly said: "Can't!" β
Wang Yuhe got up and left to arrange a room for Russell, and since then to resolve this embarrassing situation, Liu Ye and Russell can only bow their heads and laugh. Brother Ding'er was unhappy, Hu Xu felt speechless, but he couldn't take it back, so he had to raise his head and pour wine.
In the end, Hu Xu got drunk again, which was good, and directly arranged him and Russell in a courtyard, and Brother Ding happily watched Uncle Lao send "Uncle Hu" back to the room, and followed Russell to the next door.
At night, Wang Yuhe couldn't sleep, tossing and turning in addition to his father finally seeing the light of day, but also Hu Xu's strong emotions that are becoming more and more obvious today.
Although it has only been more than three months since she was separated, her heart and her feelings have been frozen for too long, and she feels the taste of being pursued again after many years, which is really a bit mixed.
On the one hand, I feel that Hu Xu is really infatuated and infatuated, and he has been pursuing it since he was not married. On the other hand, I feel that Hu Xu's idea seems too naΓ―ve.
Not to mention anything else, she also knew that Hu Xu was the only son of the richest man in Golden Eagle City, and the Hu family in Golden Eagle City was not a family like the Han family, but like the Wang family, they were real local tyrants and huge riches.
Would such a family tolerate an only child marrying a divorced woman with a son?
Continuations will not be considered.
So although she was moved by Hu Xu repeatedly, she never took that step. The previous failed marriage gave her a huge blow, if it weren't for Liu Ye's enlightenment, she only planned to take care of the business, and then spend the rest of her life teaching Brother Ding.
But the prospect depicted by Liu Ye is so beautiful, I can't help but have the idea of trying everything.
In fact, she is really happy during this time, she has the most beloved father, the brother she relies on, the best sister, and a favorite son-in-law, who gets along with her son day and night...
It doesn't get much more comfortable than this!
She didn't want to, she didn't dare to try to fit in with someone else's family.
But she is a responsible person, once she can't respond to Hu Xu's feelings, she doesn't want to be so ambiguous anymore to make him have illusions.
Thinking like this, I am very reluctant in my heart, always making excuses, and people have not directly confessed, how can I refuse!
However, this is just self-deception after all, and she can't keep pretending to be stupid like this.
Shadow came late at night, and only Russell and Willow were still waiting for him.
"You can rest assured, Wang Ding is very popular with the emperor, and he has been ordered to leave for Baiyan City immediately and start preparing for the next ocean." Shadow said to Willow Leaf.
"What about Your Highness?"
"Your Highness doesn't have to worry about it, but his choice is a little strange." Ying Xiuqi's brows frowned slightly, and she couldn't figure it out.
"What choice?"
Knowing that the ocean-going trade route had been opened, the emperor was very happy and praised the prince again and again. even said that as long as the prince wants, he can choose the sixth! As a result, the prince actually chose the Ministry of Industry! β
At that time, the scene was full of uproar, although the Ministry of Industry, although it can make money, it is also a high-risk department, how many pairs of eyes are staring, and if you don't pay attention, your reputation will be ruined, how could the prince choose this department?
Liu Ye smiled, this is also what she mentioned to the prince when she was chatting with the prince, since the foundation of the character of "studious" has been laid before, then the next thing is to carry out this character to the end.
So how do you get to the bottom of it? Liu Ye gave him an analysis, and the Ministry of Industry was the best at learning knowledge.
Especially after Wang Ding opened up the ocean-going trade routes, the prince could use this as an excuse to talk about the difficulties of the oceans and the difficulties of existing ships. Then I want to go to the Ministry of Industry to see if there are more advanced technologies that can support the ocean, such as the modification of ships, new machinery or improvements such as maritime defense.
The prince listened, and he said that he was only concerned with the manufacture and improvement of sea vessels, and did not participate in anything else.
This made the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, who had already regarded the Ministry of Industry as a big cake and almost shared the benefits equally, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone can squeeze out a little bit to satisfy the prince's appetite, why not?
The emperor believed from the bottom of his heart at this time that this son was really not in a hurry to inherit the throne.
So he immediately made a decision: the prince is also in charge of the Ministry of Works.
The crown prince also had questions at that time, when would he be able to touch the core of imperial power when he was always wandering on the fringes?
Liu Ye asked him what was the core of imperial power, and the prince hesitated for a long time before saying, "Military power." β
"It's not easy for the military department to intervene, so you have to start infiltrating from the periphery." Liu Ye said.
Ever since she understood her usefulness in the presence of the crown prince, she had taken great care to understand the history of the Holy Spirit Kingdom, focusing on the current emperor. Coupled with the history she is familiar with, her vision is indeed much broader, and the strategies in many film and television works can almost be copied and used.
"The Ministry of Industry can also infiltrate the Ministry of War?" The crown prince had doubts, after all, they were all bold in their competition for the throne, and only when they couldn't come clearly, they would use their tricks.
"There is a long way to go, and there will be a lot of accidents. For example, how can pirates, such as the invasion of behemoths, protect themselves? With the appropriate weapons, of course. β
"Hmmm! It is usually swords, spears, and bows and arrows. β
"Your Highness does not need to mention the Ministry of War, but only that the defense of ocean-going ships should be taken into account. The word defense sounds mild, but it's actually a weapon. Defense is to develop weapons used on sea ships, so how can weapons that can be used on sea ships not be used in siege, defense and daily combat? β
"Even if it does, so what?"
"Weapons must eventually be equipped in the army. Then the use of new weapons must be trained and explained by people from the Ministry of Industry. Then come and go, His Royal Highness will definitely not know less officials of the Ministry of War, and get along slowly, as long as the weapons are really useful, the officials and generals of the Ministry of War will naturally take it to heart. If you continue for a long time, you will have a good impression of Your Highness. β
After hearing this, the prince thought for a long time before he said, "The method is indeed useful, but it takes a long time. β
"Now the most important thing Your Highness lacks, and the most important message to convey to the emperor, is: You are not in a hurry!"
The prince suddenly realized, clapped his hands and said, "Yes! What am I anxious about! β
Liu Ye smiled: "That's right, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!" β
Liu Ye thought to himself, isn't it just to win the heir, let's just think we're writing, digging deep into the character roles of each character, and then analyzing and setting the plot.
Although you can't guess the development of the situation 100%, you can still play a certain role in making suggestions and then working together.
I didn't expect the prince to listen to himself.
Liu Ye was a little complacent, and then thought of why he worked so hard, and he was deflated again.
Is it that the people who come through are like Puyu in this era, they will always meet Bole and develop the abilities of the traverser to make full use.
She is already low-key and humble to the point that she is just a little girl, but she is still targeted by the prince.
Now Liu Ye didn't know that he was in the house, and his out-of-the-box behavior gave Zhongji truthful feedback to the prince, which attracted the prince's attention. If she knew, she would have repented of her death.
The prince was newly married for three months, and the three concubines did not move, and for a while, the rest of the people who were not originally selected were full of thoughts.
The emperor also received a lot of explicit hints, and the emperor asked the prince's opinion, and the prince looked frightened.
"Father, Erchen is not a playboy, and now he has to go to the Ministry of Rites to study and go to the Ministry of Industry to study, there are still three women in the family on weekdays, and Erchen doesn't have so much energy!"
The emperor laughed, admiring more and more this son who dared to tell the truth to himself!
The next day, Liu Ye told everyone the news, Wang Yuhe was extremely happy, his father could finally return to Baiyan City openly, and his mother's good days came again.
That way she can rest assured.
Russell was also taken aback by the prince's choice, the prince had not discussed this matter with him in advance, and they did not expect that the emperor would send a message to choose six at will!
He looked at Liu Ye intuitively, and at the same time, Hu Xu also looked at Liu Ye in surprise, he just said about the Ministry of Industry not long ago, but he didn't expect Liu Ye to be unbelievable!
The prince is really in charge of the Ministry of Works!
Regardless of whether they are all taken over or not, as long as they are famous, they still have full say in the construction of the road from Bailu County to the capital!
