"Ministers should do their best." Zhao Xie said solemnly, even if it was to make himself climb higher, he had to work harder.

It was still very lively outside, and Zhao Xie was calm in his heart, since the road for the next few years had been decided, there was nothing to be excited about.

Her eyes fell on Zhao Qingrui, what was her intention?

The voting outside was in full swing, and Zhao Qingrui looked at it for a while, and then lost interest.

"Take me on a trip to the forest garden." The seeds and various seedlings brought back by Sui Shicong's voyage had already been planted in Shanglin Garden, and he didn't know if he would survive or not, Zhao Qingrui wanted to go over and see it with his own eyes.

"No."

The two got into the carriage to go to Shanglin Yuan, Zhao Qingrui sat in the carriage and turned over the government affairs sent over, and Zhao Xie sat next to him, like a guardian saint.

Shanglin Garden is now more and more solemn, and when you walk inside, you can also see the lively harvest scene.

When Zhao Qingrui came over, Xu Changming had already come to greet him, but he didn't bring a few people over.

"Did the seeds and seedlings I sent me last time survive?" Zhao Qingrui asked expectantly.

"Back to Your Majesty, most of them have survived, and some of them are probably planted in the wrong way, and some have died, but fortunately, they are not all planted." Xu Changming is very uncomfortable with those species that are not planted alive.

He also knew that Xianyang was not suitable for planting all the species he had brought back.

But it was still very uncomfortable to see the seeds rotting and the seedlings dying.

"It's okay, if you die, you will die, and when there are conditions in the future, I will ask people to set aside a large piece of land for your farm family overseas, and you can study it at will." What Xu Changming knew, Zhao Qingrui also knew, and comforted him softly.

Being able to grow alive and adapt to the climate of this place, even if it is only half of it, is already a good thing for Daqin.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xu Changming's eyes suddenly lit up.

In recent years, with the exploration of overseas, even ordinary merchant ships cannot reach farther places, but overseas, it still arouses many people's yearning.

There is also a vast land overseas, and there are many amazing species.

In addition to many strange plants, there are also some beasts caught from overseas.

He had seen a strange animal with a particularly long neck on the street, and many people had come to watch it.

"I also want you to study more good things, this year's grain harvest is bumper, and you have contributed a lot." Zhao Qingrui smiled.

In recent years, most of the seeds planted by Qianshou were purchased from the imperial court, as well as the fertilizers sold by the imperial court, which made the yield of those species that were originally not good have increased a lot.

Zhao Qingrui is still very satisfied with the research progress of the Agricultural Academy.

"By the way, is the lemon tree alive?" Zhao Qingrui is more concerned about this thing.

"Back to Your Majesty, you have already planted live, Your Majesty wants to go and watch it?" Xu Changming immediately invited Zhao Qingrui to visit.

followed Xu Changming over, and the things he brought back this time were specially set aside for planting.

Zhao Qingrui walked over and saw the things that Sui Shicong brought back, most of them were planted, it's really good.

She didn't know what they were, but she was happy.

I gently touched the branches of the little sapling, and I was in a wonderful mood.

On the way back, Zhao Qingrui still maintained a good mood.

It's just that when I walked to the palace, bad news came.

"What's going on?" Zhao Qingrui frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty, this is a recital sent back in an expedited manner for eight hundred miles." The eunuch took out a small envelope.

Zhao Qingrui took it and looked at it quickly, and the more she looked at it, the worse her face became.

"Spread the message that Wuhou Wang Ben, Feng Zheng and the six Shangshu and Dali Siqing came to Zhangtai Palace to discuss matters." Zhao Qingrui had a cold face.

Zhao Qingrui sat in the Zhangtai Palace, holding the book that had just been sent back.

This is the recital sent back by Li Xin, the place he guarded this year is the desert before, and it is not yet time to change the guard, and he is still in the Western Regions.

Discovering the figure of Mao Dun Shan Yu, he ruled over the alien races on the other side, especially after knowing that Daqin was preparing to use troops against the Mauryan Dynasty and transferred some soldiers from the border, they began to harass Daqin's borders, intending to break through Daqin's defenses.

This is not the most important thing, they also have the crude gunpowder manufacturing in their hands, which is also what makes Li Xin frightened.

Zhao Qingrui's face was very bad, gunpowder was definitely a secret existence to Great Qin, and now it was actually in the hands of Mao Dun, although it was only the roughest version.

Mao Dun is known as the Qin Shi Huang of the Grassland, his own ability is definitely no problem, and now he can still make crude versions of gunpowder, and his threat to Great Qin has skyrocketed.

The most important thing is that there was a mistake on the part of the imperial court and the Ministry of Industry, and such an important formula was leaked out, which was what made Zhao Qingrui angry the most.

After a while, Liubu Shangshu and Wang Ben all came over.

Seeing Zhao Qingrui's gloomy face, his heart couldn't help but sink, could it be that something big had happened?

His Majesty has always been gentle and generous, and his face is rarely so ugly.

After saluting, Zhao Qingrui handed them the book in his hand, "Let's take a look." ”

Wang Ben was the first to get it, and the more he looked at it, the more ugly his face became, and the curiosity of others was also raised.

The letter paper was passed around and finally returned to Zhao Qingrui's hands.

"Tell me what you think." Zhao Qingrui looked at the few people below lightly, and the anger on their faces was clearly visible.

"Your Majesty, the minister's control is not strict, and the crime deserves death, please punish Your Majesty." Gong Yu was the first to stand up.

Especially when he saw the crude version of gunpowder on it, he was not good.

This is Daqin's secret, it actually spread out, someone in the Ministry of Industry must have a problem, otherwise this thing can't be transmitted.

Maudun knows the recipe, so is there anyone else who knows?

If it was obtained by the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, he couldn't imagine such a result.

"You get up first, this matter will be investigated by Dali Temple, and within ten days, I will know who leaked the secret recipe and found out the thief." Zhao Qingrui looked at Yao Jia.

"The minister commands." Yao Jia's face was serious, and he also knew the importance of this matter.

This matter is related to the secrets of Great Qin, and Yao Jia also attaches great importance to it.

Being able to infiltrate the Ministry of Industry is already quite serious.

If he didn't know who was behind the scenes, when he caught someone, he would definitely have that person's body broken into pieces.

Daqin has finally developed so well now, and there are still people who want to destroy Daqin's stability, it's really damn it.

"I want to send troops to pacify Maudun and kill Maudun directly." Zhao Qingrui said lightly.

This person is always doing trouble when he is alive, and it is reassuring to be dead.

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead the troops to pacify Maotun." Meng Tian stood up for the first time and sat in the position of the secretary of the military department, it was too difficult for him as a general, he just wanted to lead the troops to fight.

"The minister is also willing to lead the troops to pacify." Wang Ben also stood up and guarded Daqin for a few years, plus after he practiced the physical training method, his strength increased countless times, and he had already itchy hands.

Now that Xianyang has Meng Tian, even if he leaves, there will be no problems.

The other generals were all on the borders of Daqin, and there were not many talents available to the DPRK and China.

Zhao Qingrui looked at Wang Ben and Meng Tian with excited faces, these two people are the gods of Great Qin, and they are like the gods of the sea.

Let them go to Maoton, or if they have the advantage of weapons, it is simply a knife to kill chickens.

"I'll think about it, let's talk about gunpowder first." Zhao Qingrui didn't agree directly, she was going to discuss this matter with Ying Zheng.

Several people discussed for a long time, and after they left the palace, the Ministry of Industry was completely controlled, and then the Criminal Department and Dali Temple intervened together and began to investigate.

The status of the people in the Ministry of Industry is quite high in Daqin, especially because they control the technology, and they were unhappy and even unhappy with these people who came at first.

After knowing the purpose of these people, the arrogant man suddenly became dumb.

Even if they are simple-minded, they know that this matter involves the country, and if they dare to stop it, these people will dare to cut them down directly.

As for those who had problems, they were completely frightened at this time, and the court found out what they had done and came to arrest them.

Of course, there are also psychologically strong, very calm, and there are also some luck psychology, feeling that what they are doing is secret, and they will definitely not be able to find out anything.

After Meng Yi and Yao Jia came to the Ministry of Industry, they directly began to investigate, and everyone, from top to bottom, even the guards here, all entered the investigation list.

This time, the action was very large, and the government and the opposition were shaken.

On the other side, Zhao Qingrui came to Yilanzhu, and Yingzheng was drinking and having fun with the beauty.

"Let's all go down, I have something to discuss with my father." Zhao Qingrui waved his hand to the performers and told them to retreat.

"The affairs of the imperial court are over? Why did you come here? Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, the environment on his side was quiet, and his mind was not on political affairs, so he didn't know about the actions of the court for the time being.

"Something is wrong." Zhao Qingrui solemnly told Ying Zheng the content of the letter sent back by Li Xin.

"Damn, when the leaker is caught, he will be executed directly." Ying Zheng's face is also very bad, he also knows the importance of the Ministry of Industry, those people are really bold, and they deserve death.

"Father, don't worry, I won't let go of the traitor." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.

"By the way, I still want my father to help me get an idea, I'm going to send someone to pacify Maodun, who should I send out? Mengyang They want to deal with the Peacock Dynasty, and there are not many generals who can use it. ”

"Meng Tian and Wang Ben both want to go, if they let them go, it will really be a waste to kill chickens with a knife." Zhao Qingrui said distressedly.

"Haha, that's it, in this world, who else is my opponent of Daqin, Meng Tian and Wang Ben are estimated to be irritable in Daqin, it's not bad to let them go out and have fun." Ying Zheng said with a smile, that's right, it's just a joke, the forces gathered by Mao Dun are nothing at all in front of the powerful Great Qin.

"Father, this is a national war, don't be careless." Regarding Mao Dun, Zhao Qingrui is still not very reassured.

"Yes, yes, who do you want to send?" Ying Zheng said indifferently.

"That's why I'm here to ask my godfather." Zhao Qingrui looked at Yingzheng with blank eyes.

"If you want to be widowed, then send Wang Ben, he has been holding back in Xianyang for many years." Ying Zheng touched his chin and said.

"Tongwu Hou, it's okay, Xianyang is very safe here, and after he leaves, he can let Meng Tian temporarily take his place." After pondering for a while, Zhao Qingrui felt that Ying Zheng's proposal was not bad.

At the court meeting on the second day, Zhao Qingrui announced his decision and appointed Wang Ben as the commander of the crusade against Maodun.

Because they had to use troops abroad, and fortunately, because of the autumn harvest, the national treasury was more abundant, so there were not many voices of opposition from the DPRK and China.

Hearing that he was appointed as the head coach, Wang Ben was very surprised, he thought that this opportunity would fall on those younger generations again, but he didn't expect His Majesty to directly appoint him.

Great, he's back to the battlefield again!!

Compared with Wang Ben's excitement, Meng Tian was a little lost, and he also wanted to go.

Wang Ben became the main general, and Zhao Qingrui also arranged a task for him, that is, to bring apprentices.

Originally, she was going to let Fan Hao and them go to the Peacock Dynasty, but this time she divided two for Wang Ben, it was Fan Hao and Cao Shen.

The others followed to the Peacock Dynasty.

Wang Ben has no opinion on bringing two newcomers, as long as he can continue to go to the battlefield, he is willing to do anything.

Mao Dun reappeared in Great Qin's field of vision, and also pulled up an army to attack Great Qin, and they also mastered the technology of gunpowder.

Gunpowder is Daqin's secret, and it is Daqin's hole card standing on top of the world, and the officials of the court and China also do not allow such technology to be known by outsiders.

Therefore, one by one, they criticized the leakers in the court, and if that person was in front of them, they could drown that person with their saliva.

Zhao Qingrui waited for them to finish scolding, and arranged the follow-up plan in an orderly manner.

Daqin is now recruiting soldiers every year, and the requirements for recruiting soldiers are gradually increasing, and the treatment is gradually increasing, so there are many young people who are willing to serve as soldiers every year.

This also caused the current Great Qin to have a total of more than two million soldiers, and the annual expenses of these soldiers are also a huge number.

Fortunately, now that Daqin is rich, he can support so many people.

Zhao Qingrui was ready to mobilize 50,000 troops to go over, and all of these people wanted new soldiers.

Anyway, Wang Ben is very experienced, so he can't get out of trouble with the recruits, and he will definitely be able to bring these people out, and she is very relieved to hand them over to Wang Ben.

After arranging all this, Zhao Qingrui dragged her tired body to Zhangtai Palace.

"Your Majesty, Marquis Wu Cheng asks to see you." The palace maid said cautiously.

"Marquis Wu Cheng? What did he come to do? Muttered, Zhao Qingrui hurriedly asked people to invite him in.

"Meet Your Majesty."

"Elder Wang doesn't have to be polite, sit." Zhao Qingrui personally helped him up.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, the old minister came to the palace today to ask His Majesty for an errand." Wang Jian looked at Zhao Qingrui expectantly, and he wanted to fight the Peacock Dynasty and Mao Dun, and he heard Wang Ben say that the side occupied by Mao Dun was a big piece of territory, and he also wanted to take a look.
