The corners of Zhao Qingrui's mouth twitched. She knew it would be like this.
But she was still very happy to have a holiday.
I'll discuss this with Feng Quji and the others later. Going to court every day is really too tiring, so let's change it to once every three days. For other matters, we can just submit memorials daily.
Having made up his mind, Zhao Qingrui also talked about this matter with Ying Zheng.
"If we do this, our control over the court will be reduced." Ying Zheng frowned.
"Your Majesty, you are overthinking it. Even if the court meetings are changed to once every three days, court affairs will still be submitted. Look at the memorials submitted every day. Most of them are trivial matters, and there are not many major events." These systems set by her father are so tiring every day that she feels like she is going crazy.
Fortunately, the current Qin Dynasty is not very big, and its territory is not as large as that of later generations. Such centralized power can manage it. If the territory is larger, it probably cannot be managed.
My father abolished the feudal system. If the territory becomes larger, it will be more difficult for all places to pass on news to Xianyang.
The transmission of information is definitely a big problem. There is no way to solve it now. We can only find ways to cultivate more talents.
Now her father still wants to go out and fight to conquer more territory. She naturally supports him, but she can only find a solution to the management problem slowly.
In the end, Zhao Qingrui still failed to convince his father, but fortunately there was no need to rush this matter.
-----------------
The sudden day off surprised everyone in the court.
But everyone was still very happy to be able to take a break.
In the Shanglinyuan Palace, Zhao Qingrui had people prepare the ingredients needed for the banquet.
"Your Highness, Princess Yin Man and Prince Fusu are here." Chunxi walked over and said happily.
"Go and invite them over." Zhao Qingrui quickly put down the pen in her hand. After Zhao Wen came to Xianyang during this period, he assigned her some tasks and disliked her handwriting because it was too ugly.
If you want to become an emperor, it is definitely impossible if you still have the same handwriting that looks like a dog paddling.
There were many people in the court who were accomplished in calligraphy, but Li Si and others were busy during this period, so Zhao Qingrui called Shusun Tong to teach her.
She gradually got used to practicing calligraphy, but it would take time to develop her own style.
"Aunt, I'm here." Ziying's voice came from outside the door.
"Come in and sit down." Zhao Qingrui invited with a smile. Ziying had grown a lot taller in the past year. During this period, she learned about Ziying's learning progress. She had to say that this little guy was very smart and studied very hard.
"Aunt, what delicious food do you want to eat today?" Ziying looked at Zhao Qingrui expectantly and swallowed his saliva. The food here is delicious, and he likes this aunt the most.
"There are a lot of delicious food, but before we eat, little aunt will test Ziying's learning results. If you can't satisfy little aunt, you will have to watch us eat later." She raised her hand and touched the boy's hair. The child had grown to her shoulders. He was growing so fast.
"Just test him casually. If he can't answer, I'll send him back without you having to tell him anything." Wang Xia said with a smile.
"Well, Ziying has spent less time studying recently. If his answers are not good, I will give him more learning tasks." Fusu also laughed.
He also paid great attention to his son's studies. However, during the time when his father returned from his tour, Zhao Qingrui and the others also returned. He relaxed a little in his studies and became a little impetuous.
"Aunt, please let me go." Upon hearing what his parents and aunt said, the little face with a bright smile suddenly fell.
"Don't worry, true gold is not afraid of fire. I'm going to start now." Zhao Qingrui smiled. She liked Ziying very much, so it was naturally impossible for her to really cheat him.
She had already learned about the learning progress of the children in the palace from her subordinates, and the questions Zhao Qingrui asked were all about what they had already talked about.
After hearing the questions asked by his aunt, Ziying relaxed. His grades in school had always been among the best, so these questions were not difficult for him.
Ziying answered all the questions, and the smile on Zhao Qingrui's face became even brighter. She also liked children who were good at studying.
"Very good. It seems that you have worked hard. You answered so well. Your aunt will give you some good things tomorrow." She patted Ziying's shoulder.
"What is it? Can I know in advance?" Ziying looked at Zhao Qingrui with shining eyes. Whatever his aunt took out must be a good thing.
"Sister, don't spend money. Ziying has everything he needs." Fusu said helplessly. His sister doted on Ziying too much.
"Don't worry, big brother. It's not something valuable." Zhao Qingrui waved his hand.
He asked Fusu and the others to rest in the palace, and asked the kitchen to start preparing.
"Aunt, is the Emperor coming too?" Hearing that the Emperor was coming, Ziying shrank his neck with fear in his eyes.
"Of course, your royal grandfather is the elder. When we have something good, of course we will think of him first." He touched Ziying's head. These nephews and nieces are not very old and are afraid of their father.
Naturally, Dad wasn't very close to them anymore, and Zhao Qingrui didn't intend to deliberately make them get along.
"Ziying knows." Ziying nodded obediently.
After a while, Wang Xian and the others came again. This time, Zhao Qingrui invited Su Ling and Gongshu Xue together. It was a rare holiday, so it would be more lively with more people.
The palace suddenly became lively. Ziying was the only child there, and he was very popular there.
When Ying Zheng came, the palace became quiet. Although everyone knew that His Majesty was coming, his presence could not be ignored even if he just sat there without saying anything.
"Everyone is here, Chunxi, let the people from the Music Bureau come." Zhao Qingrui poured a cup of tea for Ying Zheng.
There was not much entertainment in the Qin Dynasty. Although the songs and dances were boring, they were better than nothing.
She had arranged this beforehand, because she was afraid that their father would come and make them feel embarrassed.
The sound of chimes rang out, and the women from the music bureau in the hall began to dance gracefully, which made the awkward people relax a little.
"My dear daughter, you are entertaining so many people. What delicious food have you prepared?" Ying Zheng asked curiously.
"Father, why worry? You will know in a moment." Zhao Qingrui said calmly.
"Still keeping me in suspense." Ying Zheng said helplessly. This girl probably didn't know what fear was. All his sons, daughters and grandsons were trembling in fear in front of him. Even Fusu didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of him.
"I guarantee it will be delicious. Father, you came so early. Didn't you discuss matters with Marquis Tongwu today?" Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
