Chapter 293: Emperor Jingtai, who only talks about the return of the prince
Zhu Qiyu also felt that his head was buzzing, and he said helplessly: "We will discuss this matter after the prince's teacher returns to the court."
This is a big deal...
Zhu Qiyu didn't have the courage to make a decision.
Hang Min continued: "Then at the Academy of Engineering Sciences, the research on the new materials developed for road traffic construction, that is, the kind of cement for which His Royal Highness proposed the rough formula, should we continue?"
Zhu Qiyu said angrily: "If you have money, continue."
Hang Min exclaimed, "It only costs a few dollars to develop this cement formula, so Weichen will let the Academy of Engineering continue."
Then I wanted to play again.
Zhu Qiyu's head hurt, "How many tricks does the prince have at the Ministry of Industry?"
Hang Min said: "There is also a Dengzhou shipyard, which has built the shells of two steel battleships according to the drawings designed by His Highness the Prince. However, they are too heavy and heavy to carry the sails. The Prince's shipyard under the Academy of Engineering Sciences
The "Steam Engine Research and Development Institute" established at the request of His Highness, with the full support of the steel mill, has made some progress, but it has no money."
Zhu Qiyu spread his hands and said, "I don't have any money either. We'll discuss it later when the prince comes back."
The ministers were all amused.
The emperor of our family only knows this sentence when it comes to feelings.
Without the prince, your majesty will not be able to govern the country?
But no one objected.
After all, the Crown Prince’s abilities are obvious to all. For example, the Dongfeng series of firearms produced by the Donggong Military Research Institute have brought a leap forward to the Ming Dynasty’s military. It is visible to everyone. Without the Donggong Military Research Institute, the war with Mobei last year and this year would not have been so smooth.
's great victory.
Lin Cong, Minister of Agriculture, came out and said, "I have something to report to you."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up, "Is there any good news from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences?"
Zhu Qiyu values the Academy of Agricultural Sciences of the Ministry of Agriculture more than the Academy of Engineering Sciences of the Ministry of Industry. After all, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences is engaged in the cultivation of sweet potatoes. If this thing can be promoted nationwide to increase production, it will directly solve the food problem.
If the food problem is solved, the population will skyrocket.
The population is booming...
The country will naturally become stronger.
Lin Cong said: "Replying to Your Majesty, the experimental fields of the Jiangnan Branch, Tianfu Branch, and Henan Intermediate Branch of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences have harvested a season of sweet potatoes. Among them, the Jiangnan Branch's yield per mu is less than one thousand kilograms, and the Shuzhong and Henan Branch's yields per mu have reached one.
One thousand two to three hundred kilograms. It may be that our planting method was wrong and we did not reach the two thousand kilograms mentioned by His Royal Highness. However, it can be inferred that the soil in the south of the Yangtze River is moist and is probably not suitable for planting sweet potatoes. Sichuan and Henan are more suitable. Also.
The good news is that Sichuan Branch and Henan Central Hospital have planted another season of sweet potatoes. If there are no accidents, they can harvest again in late autumn and early winter."
The yield per mu is 1200 to 300 kilograms?
Very good!
Zhu Qiyu said: "The Ministry of Agriculture will continue to pay close attention to this matter. The specific matters will be discussed later when the prince returns to the court."
He glanced around and asked, "Is there anything else going on with your family?"
No one said a word.
It will be discussed after the prince returns to court, so it would be better to wait until the prince comes back.
Zhu Qiyu said: "Today's small court meeting will end here. The Ministry of Rites is preparing for the ceremony of the prince's return to the court. In addition, Chen Ruyan, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, will stay here. I have something to explain."
Lu Yu immediately accepted the order.
The ministers resigned.
Zhu Qiyu found that Yu Qian had not left, and knew that Yu Shaobao had something to do. After the other courtiers left, he first said to Chen Ruyan who stayed behind: "The Jinyi Guards investigated Shi Dongshan, a guest of your residence. The origin of this person is unknown. Chen Shangshu is not there."
Do you want to explain something?"
Chen Ruyan was shocked.
This day has finally come.
Thinking about it, he, Chen Ruyan, had been promoted from a doctor in the Ministry of War to a minister in the Ministry of Justice. The Jin Yiwei had already thoroughly investigated the inside and outside of his residence. No matter how realistic the fake identity made for Shi Dongshan was, there would always be flaws.
When Chen Ruyan was hesitant about how to answer, Zhu Qiyu continued: "Liu Jing, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, reported that he had gone to Shi Dongshan's registered residence for investigation. Although his age and appearance were probably matching, Shi Dongshan had encountered a lot of problems when he went out to do business in the early years.
The bandit disappeared from the world, so why did you appear in the mansion?
Shi Dongshan, or the original Shi Dongshan?”
After a pause, "A few years ago, people from the Jiaofang Division assassinated me, and Chen Ruyan, you were involved. Although there was no evidence that you were the mastermind afterwards, the prince was very concerned about this matter!"
Jin Yiwei never gave up monitoring Chen Ruyan.
Yu Qian thought thoughtfully, "If I remember correctly, the relationship between Shi Dongshan and Chen Shangshu seems to be more than just a disciple and a master. He has a very high status in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Justice."
Chen Ruyan sighed, "Because he is not Shi Dongshan."
Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian looked at each other.
Chen Ruyan continued: "His original name was Queen Shi."
Chen Ruyan knew that it was almost impossible to keep it secret at this time. Jin Yiwei's ability was beyond doubt. Since His Majesty mentioned Shi Dongshan today, there was obviously conclusive evidence.
There's no point in hiding it, so hurry up and abandon the car to save the handsome man.
Zhu Qiyu stood up with a snap. When Shu Liang at the door heard this, he thought, Damn it, Shi Heng's remnant, how dare you neglect him? He hurriedly rushed in to defend Zhu Qiyu.
Yu Qian didn't move.
At this time, how could Chen Ruyan have any thoughts about the emperor?
Chen Ruyan said this, and finally said sadly that it was just because he wanted to have a future in his official career that he attached himself to Shi Heng. After giving him several gifts, he was manipulated by Empress Shi. The minister had long wanted to get rid of Empress Shi's threats and threats.
Control, but reluctant to let go of the nobleness of Jiuqing. Now that it has been exposed, I have nothing to say. Please punish me...
His attitude was very sincere and he burst into tears.
Zhu Qiyu was also greatly touched when he heard this. He was a soft-hearted person, and Chen Ruyan's work in the past few years was indeed impeccable, otherwise he would not have been promoted to the rank of Jiuqing.
Looking at Yu Qian, "Yu Shaobao, how do you think we should deal with it?"
Yu Qian thought for a while and said, "Ask the Jin Yiwei to secretly capture Shi Dongshan, take him to the imperial prison and die suddenly, and then dispose of the body as unclaimed and bury it in a mass grave. As for Chen Shangshu, in the past two years, the Ministry of Punishment has been doing Qingming, and people from all over the country have
There is rarely a backlog of Chen Yu in the Criminal Department. Chen Ruyan, as the Secretary of the Criminal Department, has meritorious service, so he should be punished with a salary penalty or demoted to another place."
In fact, Zhu Qiyu also admired Chen Ruyan's ability. Hearing this, he said: "Since Yu Shaobao interceded for you, I will spare your life. The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime is difficult to forgive. Let's take you to the imperial prison first. After the prince returns to the court,
Fall together with Queen Shi!"
Shu Liang immediately went to call Liu Jing, the commander of the Jin Yiwei who was waiting outside the palace, to come in.
Lu Zhong has died of illness.
Liu Jing took over as the commander of the Jinyi Guards.
Liu Jing led his men to escort Chen Ruyan to imperial prison, and then went to Chen Ruyan's residence to capture Empress Shi according to the imperial edict.
Zhu Qiyu then looked at Yu Qian and asked, "Does Yu Shaobao have anything else to discuss with me? But it doesn't hurt."
The attitude is very humble.
Although Zhu Qiyu was afraid of Yu Qian back then, and although Yu Qian was neutral when Shi Heng, Shen Yu, Fang Ying and others rebelled, fortunately these rebellions failed, so Yu Qian's neutrality was not a crime.
Moreover, after Zhu Zunxi's rebellion in Fujian, Yu Qian gave up his military power and became an official of the East Palace and the Minister of the Ministry of War. He worked hard without complaint. Zhu Qiyu now has a lot of trust in Qian.
He also respects Yu Qian very much.
Not surprisingly, Yu Qian will become a person like San Yang.
Yu Qian sighed softly: "The humble minister is getting old, so I ask him to become an official and return to his hometown."
After the war in Taiwan, Yu Qian was completely relieved.
In the past, Yu Qian would have been willing to die in the court to shoulder the responsibility of reviving the Ming Dynasty. But over the years, Yu Qian has discovered that the current His Majesty and the Crown Prince will never be the next Baozong.
Yu Qian no longer has any worries.
And he is old.
The fallen leaves have returned to their roots. While my health is still good now, I will return to my hometown to take care of my old age.
Zhu Qiyu was stunned for a while and then said: "We will discuss this later when the prince returns to court!"
