Chapter 446: The End (11)

It was all because she was too anxious and asked after not seeing the signature at the back. Finally, Rong Jingqiu threw the memorial aside with a smirk, and wrapped her hands around Zhao Yu's neck, "Where is any old acquaintance? Isn't the person I most important?"

The look of the dead sheep repairing the siege made Zhao Yuya itchy, and then he sneered, "I don't believe in your evil."

Rong Jingqiu hurriedly held his face with both hands and asked him to look at her, "Look at my sincere eyes, I'm not lying."

She had indeed thrown Bo Jingran out of the sky. If she hadn't seen his name in the memorial this time, she would have really not remembered him. In the final analysis, she had not really liked Bo Jingran at the beginning, but used him as a life-saving straw, just appreciating this person, and appreciation is not love.

Zhao Yu couldn't really be angry with her, so he reached out and tapped her pretty nose, "You." Sometimes he really didn't know what to do with her. He even thought that if he died young one day, he would definitely be unable to help but take her away. Of course, such extreme thoughts were only limited to thinking.

Rong Jingqiu put on her red lips and kissed him several times. Then she hid in his arms and looked at the memorial that she threw aside. "Some time ago, I asked Lin Keda to go to investigate the southeast coastal area secretly. Although others have not come back yet, I have written several reports to me. I only rely on smuggling and earn this amount every year..."

Zhao Yu looked at Rong Jingqiu's fingers, and he couldn't help but feel a little shocked. This was equivalent to the income of the national treasury for a year, and the income from coastal trade exceeded his imagination.

Rong Jingqiu saw that Zhao Yu didn't say anything. After so many years, how could he not know what his reaction meant? He was moved, so he said, "This is still the tip of the iceberg. There are many countries along the southeast coast, and there are also goods produced by us. The things they produce are also what we need. Communication between them will help us recognize the world. Moreover, the long-term implementation of the policy of closing the country is likely to become a frog in a well, and eventually the descendants will suffer from the consequences..."

"Let me think about it again..." Zhao Yu understood Rong Jingqiu's position, "The emperor just passed away, and this matter is not urgent."

Of course, Rong Jingqiu knew that he was too anxious to be anxious, but he was still the same old saying that he couldn't eat hot tofu. Not long after the old emperor passed away, the new king was eager to overturn his policies, and the court officials might not agree. He still had to do it slowly.

However, the couple reached a consensus on this issue. After all, to realize the blueprint in their minds, money is needed everywhere, so of course such a big fat sheep cannot be spared.

"Of course there is no hurry. Before that, we must improve the strength of our navy." Rong Jingqiu said, touching her chin.

Zhao Yu looked at her with a smile, "You really think about it one by one..." At this point, he suddenly paused. In his wife's eyes, he thought of pirates and wanted to trade with other countries. If there is no powerful navy, it is equivalent to a fat sheep to be slaughtered in the hands of others. Therefore, before the troops and horses go, food and grass will go first, and the power of the navy needs to be further improved.

Rong Jingqiu knew that Zhao Yu had always thought about problems more deeply than her. She was the one that was so piping bricks. It was not that she was smarter than Zhao Yu, but that she had more experience in memory.

Since the couple sat in this position, they had to seek welfare for the people of the world, otherwise they would have lived in vain and fought for this battle.

When she was leaving the imperial study room, she was about to get on the phoenix chariot, and saw Bo Jingran who was led in by the eunuch. This unexpected encounter made her stunned.

Bo Jingran was thinking about things, but the eunuch stopped to salute. Then he suddenly looked up and the familiar face of Rong Jingqiu was caught in his eyes. No, compared to her youthfulness back then, she is now full of the charm of a mature woman.

He always knew she was doing well, but he was far from shocking as he saw with his own eyes.

After coming back to his senses, he saluted Rong Jingqiu, "Caomin has seen the Empress."

"Flat." Rong Jingqiu said softly.

When she saw this person again, her heart was not fluctuating, but it is undeniable that Bo Jingran was still the handsome young man. When she thought of the past, she smiled.

Without saying anything, she held Pearl's wrist and went onto the phoenix chariot.

Bo Jingran retreated aside, watched the gorgeous phoenix chariot gradually moved away, and finally suppressed that nostalgia forever in the deepest part of his heart, turned around and continued to move forward.

A long time ago, he and her had already gone in the opposite direction.

In the imperial study room, Zhao Yu did not say anything. After seeing the ceremony, he stood aside. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Zhao Yu looking at his memorial about the sea-opening, which gave him a little more confidence.

"Come on, let me tell me in detail about your thoughts." Zhao Yu rushed him forward.

Bo Jingran was instantly jealous and hurriedly stepped forward to explain in detail.

The two of them became more and more excited as they spoke, obviously both inspired a lot of new ideas, especially the strengthening of the navy construction. Bo Jingran admired the most. He had thought about this at the beginning, but the court had finally breathed after experiencing a drought. The treasury was still empty. Where did the money come from to strengthen the navy?

But Zhao Yu still mentioned this, so he had to find a way to raise money, so he said, "Crack down on coastal smuggling."

In this way, the national treasury can be filled as quickly as possible. If the treasury has money, why worry about the navy not being able to strengthen its construction?

Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes, thinking about the feasibility of this move?

Bo Jingran has been following Zhao Yu for a long time, so he can figure out his inner thoughts, "Using thunder means to crack down on several major smuggling families, as for the small fish and shrimps in it, it should not cause any major chaos. Then he opened a ban on the sea and established a Maritime Bureau at several important ports, and the imperial court led the overseas trade."

This not only prospers the southeast coastal areas, but also levies a lot of taxes for the court, not to mention that the court can also do business, so it is difficult to make less money.

Finally, Zhao Yu decided to agree to the matter, but it should not be widely publicized before the matter is out of sight.

Bo Jingran went to Beijing on the grounds of taking the exam. Since he left the palace that day, he has been studying behind closed doors. In fact, he is investigating private trade on the southeast coast. He is a big business in the south of the Yangtze River. It is not difficult to find out the situation there. As long as he shows that he has a batch of goods in his hand and wants to take action overseas, many people will contact him in private.

After all, silk has always been popular overseas, and Jiangnan is the place where these items are produced the most.

While Rong Jingqiu was paying attention to the opening of the sea ban here, she was busy with the affairs of the Women's Technical School. After the initial problems were resolved, the Women's Technical School began to get on track. Although this new thing also attracted the attention of the court officials, the teaching purpose at the beginning was very clear and the school did not teach anything controversial. Therefore, even the most conservative court officials turned a blind eye and let the queen lead a group of women to make trouble.

Yes, they define it as a random mess. As long as they do not occupy the resources of the court and challenge the three obediences and four virtues, nothing matters, after all, it will not damage their interests.

The ladies from the upper class looked sideways and kept talking in private, but they learned that the teachers they hired were not considered to be everyone in that industry. They were worse than those who invited them back to teach their daughters alone, and they lost interest in an instant. Anyway, their daughters didn't want this food, as long as they could be good at it.

Of course, there are also people who want to speculate. They took advantage of the opportunity of visiting the queen and recommended themselves to express their willingness to contribute to the girls' school and share the burden for the queen.

Rong Jingqiu was worried that there were no fish swimming over, and these people were willing to join in, which was just enough to solve the situation of tight funds. So he caught them all and gave him an empty title in charge of the business, and everyone was very happy in an instant.

The management of the Women's Technical School was on the right track, and Rong Jingqiu pulled Qi Aoer back.

"Empress, do you have something to ask me?" Qi Aoer asked without hesitation after saluting.

She was so busy that she couldn't help but even her father Prime Minister Qi wanted to talk to her several times, but she refused. She had no time to care about her father's party disputes. Now she was devoted to this women's technical school. She knew that this was her greatest achievement in her life.

Rong Jingqiu signaled her to sit down, and then asked someone to bring a bowl of warm soup to Qi Aoer. However, seeing Qi Aoer's anxious look, she smiled and said straight to the point, "I am going to re-edit a book on women's standards. What do you think?"

Qi Aoer was thinking about the chores that the Women's Technical School had not handled yet, but when she heard what Rong Jingqiu said, she immediately stood up without any composure.

Here comes, here is Rong Jingqiu's intention to challenge the "Women's Commandment" and redefine women's moral norms of behavior.

She had long known that the ultimate goal of running this women's technical school was to subtly train a group of new women to come out. Of course, this is a later story. After all, the road is still long, and you have to go one step by step.

Undoubtedly, Rong Jingqiu's idea will have a milestone significance.

"Empress, then you're looking for me..."

Rong Jingqiu smiled and said, "Of course, you can use your own talents and edit this female norm yourself."

In this regard, Rong Jingqiu is self-aware, so she has to find someone with real talent and knowledge to do it.

Qi Aoer is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

When Qi Aoer heard her heartbeat, she knew what it meant. No matter what fate this new female norm would have in the future, history will remember her Qi Aoer's rich and colorful strokes.

She immediately stood up and gave Rong Jingqiu a great gift, "I will receive the order."

Rong Jingqiu told the decision to help her up, "Since Qi Nushi takes on this job, the Women's Technical School will start to train talents to prepare to replace you."

Qi Aoer was very grateful to Rong Jingqiu at this point, "Yes, I understand."

After Rong Jingqiu arranged this matter, she did not ask about it anymore. She was still the same old saying, and she was in a hurry. Within three or five years, she did not intend to announce the new women's norms. To challenge the conservatives, she had to accumulate enough confidence first.

The new year is here again. The palace has finally become a little lively this year. The royal family banquet has reopened. This time, it was hosted by Zhao Yu and Rong Jingqiu, which is much more interesting than before.

At least Rong Jingqiu came up with many ideas to help her liven up, and there should be new prospects for the new year.

In the beginning of spring, Zhong Yi, who had been practicing, came to Rong Jingqiu and said that he wanted to go to the southeast coast to join the navy.

Rong Jingqiu knew that the court had been hotly discussed recently in order to open the sea ban, and the most lively thing was that Prime Minister Qi was involved in a case of smuggling along the southeast coast, which made his reputation plummet. Many censors pointed out that Prime Minister Qi took the opportunity to make money and was a borer of the country.

Prime Minister Qi, who was already in a turmoil, is now even more despised by everyone.

In the end, in order to protect himself, he wrote a letter to resign and return home. For the sake of his years of working for the court, he gave him a decent opportunity to retreat.

Zhao Yu refused to let go. If Prime Minister Qi had known to retreat even earlier, he would have let him go, but it would be too late now.

When Qi Aoer passed by the Prime Minister's Mansion, she saw the scene of the silence of the door and horses. She couldn't help but be stunned for a while. In the end, she didn't call the driver to stop. She had known that her father was not clean, but she had never thought about destroying her relatives for justice before, and of course she didn't have it now.

But her father gave up on her, so she wouldn't have this father anymore.

If Prime Minister Qi's Mansion is really guilty, she thinks that she must rescue her mother, only her mother is the person she really cares about.

Rong Jingqiu did not ask Qi Aoer about the matter of Prime Minister Qi. She didn't care what she thought. She wanted to use Qi Aoer to do things, not to lead her as a confidant. She would never be able to become friends with Qi Aoer in her life, so as long as Qi Aoer did not make any mistakes.

Compared to this, she cared more about Zhong Yi’s thoughts.

"Aunt You came to me and cried, Brother Zhong, are you really going to go to the navy?"

Zhong Yishao smiled and said, "That's a good place. I can make achievements faster when I go there."

There was a Ma family army on the northwest border. He thought about it. He might not have much chance to make a breakthrough there, but it would be different to go to the southeast coast. He thought he could make a breakthrough faster.

After looking at her increasingly noble sister, he wanted to help her. The Rong family seemed to be in full swing now, but Rong Hong is a person with limited abilities and he is also Rong Jingqiu's elder brother. He wants to do something for her, at least make a personal example, so as to support her and her nephew.

Rong Jingqiu suddenly saw Zhong Yi’s thoughts, and his eyes turned red in an instant, “Brother Zhong, you don’t have to do it for me…”

In the final analysis, the Rong family is sorry for him.

Zhong Yi waved his hand quickly and said with a smile, "What stupid thing to say? You should say I have a sister who is the queen. I also want to go back to nepotism. Sister, just help my brother this."

Rong Jingqiu knew that he wanted to calm her heart. In fact, Zhong Yi was always very casual as a young leader of an escort agency. She never thought about using this elder brother to do anything, and she didn't want him to fight for his life.

"Aunt You..."

"I'll talk about my mother."

Speaking of this, Rong Jingqiu knew that it would be useless to say more. However, she called her son Zhao Youyou and pointed at Zhong Yi and said to Zhao Youyou, "Yuyou, this is your uncle."

Zhao Youyou tilted his head and looked at Zhong Yi. He had never seen this uncle before, but he knew that he was his uncle. He had seen several uncles from the Rong family.

"Mom, is this the uncle who went to the northwest?"

"No, this is your uncle."

If ranked, Zhong Yi should be the eldest brother.
