"Hu Ji, I know. You just watch over here first." Zhao Qingrui nodded.
Hu Ji had now fallen out of favor and was demoted to a concubine by the First Emperor. However, she had served the First Emperor for so many years, and Ying Zheng still remembered their old friendship. She still lived in Ganquan Palace and had a son, Hu Hai.
After leaving the breeding area, Zhao Qingrui went to see the completed Afang Palace. The Afang Palace was extremely luxurious. It must be said that his father's aesthetic taste was really good.
Such a beautiful palace, which gathers all the treasures in the world, her father really knows how to enjoy life better than her.
"Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Zhao Qingrui came out of Afang Palace and met Wang Ben who was patrolling with his men.
"There's no need to be so polite, Marquis Tongwu." Zhao Qingrui said gently.
Looking at Wang Ben, Zhao Qingrui thought of Wang Jian. This father and son were the gods of war of the Qin Dynasty. He secretly admired them in his heart.
"Marquis Tongwu, would you like to walk with me?" He looked at Wang Ben.
"Your Highness, please." Wang Ben handed over the patrol task to the deputy general beside him.
"I heard that Wang Yuan had a quarrel with Marquis Tongwu some time ago?" Zhao Qingrui played with the sword at his waist. Influenced by his father, Zhao Qingrui also liked to carry a sword with him.
"Yes, he feels that being in the Weiwei Office is boring and wants to go to Shangjun." Wang Ben smiled bitterly.
He chose his own path, and even if he wanted to regret it now, it wouldn't be that easy.
According to the old man, Wang Yuan still needs two years of studying at the Weiwei Office to hone his character. The world is still big and there are plenty of battles to fight.
"The Weiwei shoulders the heavy responsibility of guarding the imperial palace. Now that Daqin is safe, it is all because of Your Highness's support for the people and your ability to win over everyone. Only then can Xianyang be stable." Wang Ben bowed.
Since Zhao Qingrui came back, the Qin Dynasty quickly stabilized. Riots in various places have decreased a lot, and many remnants of the six kingdoms have become quiet, knowing that the Qin Dynasty is now invincible.
They are not fools who insist on fighting against stones with eggs.
The people of Daqin are loyal to the country and it is becoming stronger and stronger. There is no need to go against Daqin at this time. They can wait and wait for the opportunity for Daqin to decline.
"Yes, Wang Yuan is too young and doesn't have much patience." Zhao Qingrui chuckled.
However, Wang Yuan still did a good job. Although he didn't have much patience, he completed his job seriously without any laziness.
During this period, the Wang family secretly put a lot of obstacles in his way, but he dealt with them all easily.
From this we can see that there is nothing wrong with Wang Yuan's ability.
"Your Highness mentioned Wang Yuan, but what plans do you have for him?" Wang Ben asked after hesitating for a moment.
"It's nothing. I just want you to cause him more trouble. He is still too young. Let him gain more experience. The future of Daqin still lies in the young people." Zhao Qingrui showed his big white teeth and smiled innocently.
Wang Ben nodded, agreeing with Zhao Qingrui's words. He and his father had both reached high positions in the government. If the Wang family wanted to continue to maintain such glory, they still had to place their hopes on future generations. Wang Yuan was quite capable.
"Don't worry, Your Highness."
When they returned from Shanglin Garden, the three people from Qinzheng Hall had almost finished handling all the government affairs, but they were not in good condition and looked very tired.
"Go and bring them some food and drinks." Zhao Qingrui said to Lu Zhi beside him.
"By the way, send someone to invite Prime Minister Li and Prime Minister Feng." Zhao Qingrui looked at Lu Zhi.
Xu Changming asked Li Si to find the manpower they needed. She called the two prime ministers mainly to improve the treatment of farmers and to make more people willing to devote themselves to these research.
The scientific research rewards will be given in the next five-year plan. She is too busy with the affairs of the court now.
"Please take a seat, Prime Ministers." Li Si and Feng Quji hurried over, and Zhao Qingrui quickly asked them to sit down and rest.
"I just went to Shanglin Garden. The farmers' children there are very attentive to the crops there. However, I saw that many of them had patched clothes on, and their meals only consisted of one meat dish. Their salary was even less, only fifty and a half taels per month." Zhao Qingrui looked at Li Si and the others.
"Your Highness, do you want to increase their treatment? They are researching to increase crop yields for the Qin Dynasty, so they really deserve a raise." Li Si thought this was very reasonable and his treatment could be increased.
"Well, I want to improve their treatment. I want to raise their treatment to the same level as that of the weapons research department. I wonder if you two have any objections." Zhao Qingrui looked at them.
"Your Highness, isn't this too high? The Weapons Research Department can help our Great Qin expand its territory faster and ensure its stability. The Ministry of Agriculture only studies how to increase grain production. Now our Great Qin's grain production is already sufficient." Feng Quji was silent for two seconds.
"We will eventually get tired of eating sweet potatoes and potatoes, and we can't eat them all as staple food. Daqin needs to improve the yield of various crops. This matter concerns the future of Daqin." She knew what Feng Quji meant.
Now that Daqin has no shortage of food, it seems less necessary than a weapons research department.
"Have you two prime ministers ever thought that there will be a day when the production of crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes will decrease? We can't wait, we need to make continuous progress." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.
The genes of the seeds produced by the system are indeed excellent, but they cannot withstand cross-pollination with some local crops, or undergo some mutations, etc.
Research cannot stand still; they must continue to advance.
"Will production be reduced further?" Li Si was shocked, and Feng Quji was also surprised. They did not expect Zhao Qingrui to say that.
