"It's no wonder that mining has been getting less and less in recent months, and he has the audacity to commit so much even though he has only been mining gold for a year. I just checked the account books, and I lost more than a million stones! ”

The emperor knocked on the imperial case, his expression and the disappointment that he couldn't hide.

"Among them, only some of them have been circulated, and some of them have been privately cast into gold on the spot and circulated out."

The emperor sighed, he really didn't expect this son to be so greedy.

Su Yizhao felt that the prince didn't have the courage to do so much, but he must have been greedy for ink.

Since the gold mine is in charge, who can resist not interfering? It's just that so many ores have disappeared, and while the mastermind behind the scenes has benefited, he has also eradicated the prince.

Thinking of the news that she asked Meng Yi and them to inquire a few days ago, those people were very hidden, and all they threw out were bait.

"Su Aiqing, you say, why did the prince do this? I've long said that gold mines are important. ”

Since Su Yizhao entered the imperial study, the emperor has been complaining until now.

Su Yizhao was very puzzled, did the emperor call her, did he just want to find someone to listen to him complain?

Isn't it okay for Xu Luo? The mouth is still tight, and he can't calculate.

"Your Majesty, maybe there is some misunderstanding in it?" Su Yizhao didn't know what to say, so he could only comfort him like this.

"Misunderstanding? What can be misunderstood? Although the account books were checked by the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, before that, didn't he check them first? With so much gold ore missing, would he not know? This is only in the account books, there is no record, I don't know how many remain. ”

The emperor said, and suddenly turned his head to look at Su Yizhao.

"Recently, there has been an impeachment of the border pass, and recently someone has been secretly exchanging markets, and many horses from the feudal county have flowed into the pass, and then disappeared. What do you think of the horses' whereabouts? ”

Su Yizhao was shocked in his heart, and suddenly thought of Zong Zeming.

"Do you think this matter has anything to do with the crown prince?"

Su Yizhao thought in his heart what the emperor meant, shouldn't such a big event be taken to the court to say? Why talk to her about a small Hanlin Academy?

"The minister thinks that before this matter is clarified, it cannot be characterized, and it is better to find out."

The emperor looked at Su Yizhao for a long time, and then said: "That's right, I have sent Dali Siqing and Qin Cha to supervise this case." ”

"Su Aiqing, if it is really the prince's doing, then what is he going to do?"

The meaning of the emperor's words couldn't be more obvious, and Su Yizhao immediately thought of rebellion.

But will the prince really rebel? Su Yizhao didn't believe it.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that before finding out the truth, blindly suspicion will only deepen the misunderstanding. It's better to relax and wait until you find out. ”

Su Yizhao didn't understand very much, the crown prince is the son of the Middle Palace, even if the emperor said before that the East Palace is a capable person, it can be passed down from ancient times to the present.

What's more, the crown prince is still the eldest son, no matter what, it is justified.

Even if the prince's qualifications are mediocre, the emperor's dislike for the prince seems to be more obvious.

However, perhaps for the sake of the queen mother and her mother's power, there is no doubt that the emperor was tolerant of the prince before.

The emperor pondered for a moment when he heard this, "You are not bad, let's wait until this matter is investigated!" ”

Su Yizhao couldn't figure out the emperor's intention to find her, it was getting late at the moment, and she had to rush back to the house before the palace was locked.

"Su Aiqing, the small country outside the border has been rampant in recent years, and it has been committed repeatedly. Although it was only a small temptation, they have been strengthening their forces, and they are afraid that sooner or later there will be war. What are your thoughts on this? ”

"Your Majesty, if it is before the opening of the sea market, the ministers will feel that it is beneficial to all countries to open the mutual market. However, once the sea market is established, the number of troops poured by the imperial court into the naval division will be many times greater than before, which has already increased the burden of the troops. ”

Su Yizhao originally thought that it was feasible to exchange markets at the border gates, but when he thought of internal and external troubles and double-sided attacks, he immediately vetoed this idea.

"In this way, it is not feasible to exchange markets at the border gates. What's more, over the years, those barbarians have become accustomed to plundering, and even if there is a mutual market, they will continue to harass the people at the border pass, so that the maintenance of the border pass will definitely increase the number of troops than before. ”

"What Su Aiqing said is reasonable, I have always felt that those barbarians have fierceness hidden in their bones, they are used to getting something for nothing, where will they honestly rely on labor to obtain wealth and food?"

The emperor deeply believes that the border pass market must not be opened.

"If the sea market and the border market are carried out at the same time, it is also a big hidden danger. As for those small countries that disturb the border gates from time to time, the minister thought that they were tempting.

Guarding the border passes requires fierce generals, and although the border soldiers are brave and good at fighting, they will still be a little tired in the long run. ”

The Dayun Dynasty, like the Wu Dynasty, emphasized literature over military force, and the status of military generals was far inferior to that of civilian officials.

"Then you mean that you want to select military talents?"

The emperor first thought of the martial arts examination, but although the martial arts examination is not as frequent as the imperial examination, it is also taken every five years, which is much better than the martial dynasty period.

During the heyday of the Wu Dynasty, because it was a peaceful and prosperous era and the people were rich, they did not attach much importance to martial arts.

"Recruiting wise men is beneficial to the court. In addition, the people must be prosperous and the people are in good spirits, and only when the government is stable can we be unanimous with the outside world. ”

Su Yizhao meant that he should leave the foreign race alone for now, and let's get the things done in the DPRK and China straightened out!

Leaving so many princes in the capital will only make a moth.

Don't go around in circles if you fancy anyone, just make yourself the crown prince, drive the other princes to the fiefdom, and stabilize the court first.

If it is indecisive, then when the imperial power changes, there will be a bloody battle.

"If the instability of the DPRK and China gives foreigners an opportunity to take advantage of it, and then provoke more provocations, won't it be disintegrated from within?"

As soon as Su Yizhao's words fell, the emperor's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

"How dare you say it!" He suddenly snorted coldly, this kid is really brave.

He also wanted to stabilize, but the time was not yet ripe.

"I was also thinking about the matter of martial arts before, but I still have to come up with a detailed charter for this matter. The system of the Wu Dynasty is no longer suitable for this dynasty, those rules are ***** by increase, and the imperial court can no longer raise so many idlers. ”

Su Yizhao was very surprised, would the emperor really reform the martial arts? That gave a lot of people a chance.

The promotion of military generals is the fastest, and now those who hold important positions are mostly hereditary, and some are recommended by officials.

As long as the martial arts reform is completed, more people will be given opportunities.

"You go back and draw up a charter, and then I will hand it over to the Ministry of Rites and the Cabinet for discussion."

Well. Is this another job for yourself? Su Yizhao suddenly felt that he was a little owed.

After finishing the business, although Su Yizhao felt that the emperor was not looking for her for this matter, he also thought about retiring.

It was getting late, and her stomach was already rumbling.

Your Majesty, aren't you hungry? It's better to finish your meal early and rest early!

There is such a model worker, for the officials, it is quite devastating.

Just when the imperial study was silent and Xu Luodu stepped forward to take the lamp, Su Yizhao moved his toes and was about to retire.

"Su Aiqing, you said that if one day you are controlled by others, and that person wants to force you to do things you don't like to do, what should you do?"
