After Fusu left, Zhao Qingrui called Wang Xian over.
"Go to Shanglin Garden and get some things from my private warehouse. Give them to the farmers. They have worked hard to improve the crops. By the way, visit Hu Hai and ask Tongwu Hou and the manager of the breeding area to keep an eye on him. Also, ask someone to send more pigs, cattle and sheep. The war on the border requires a lot of meat." Zhao Qingrui gave detailed instructions.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I'll go right away." Wang Xian said respectfully.
-----------------
Since Gan Luo started living with Zhao Wen, he has become more energetic and immersed himself in the ocean of knowledge every day.
Zhao Qingrui came to visit Gan Luo. If she hadn't come, Gan Luo would not have received any guests.
"Mr. Gan, are you having trouble adapting here?" Zhao Qingrui looked at Gan Luo gently.
"I am fine. If I hadn't come to Xianyang at your highness's persuasion, I would still be wasting my time in Shu County. Now I realize that the world outside is so big and there are so many things I don't know." Gan Luo said with emotion.
"Mr. Gan, just get used to it. But even when learning new knowledge, you have to combine work and rest. My eldest brother even came to me to complain, saying that Mr. Gan reads until very late every day." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
"Master Fusu, I am in good health now and have no problems. I also want to learn as much as I can while I can." Gan Luo said seriously.
He didn't care about Fusu's complaint. It seemed that Prince Fusu had indeed advised him several times. He was so engrossed in reading that he forgot about it.
In the few days since he returned to Xianyang, many people came to visit him. Except for Li Si, Feng Quji and a few others, he did not meet anyone else.
Zhao Wen knows so much and he has a lot of books here. Now he just wants to swim in the ocean of knowledge and not ask about other things.
"That knowledge won't disappear. You're not young anymore. You have to take care of yourself and balance work and rest." Zhao Qingrui advised earnestly. Although he had given Gan Luo medicine, it was the kind that took a long time to take effect. Gan Luo looked healthy now, but he was old after all.
"I just want to learn more." Being stared at by Zhao Qingrui, Gan Luo's old face turned red. He had no children in his life. Zhao Qingrui was about the same age as his students. He felt a little embarrassed to ask Zhao Qingrui to persuade him.
"Take your time, don't rush. You should also take care of your health, otherwise I will ask Zhao Wen not to give you the book." Zhao Qingrui chuckled.
"That won't do." Gan Luo said quickly.
"Then you must obey."
"Oh, I get it, I get it. You are all more talkative than the other." In the end, Gan Luo was defeated.
"Your Highness, you came here today just to lecture me?" Gan Luo looked at Zhao Qingrui in confusion.
Zhao Qingrui is now the crown prince, and she has plenty of things to do. It is impossible for her to be so idle.
"Haha, to visit Mr. Gan Luo, even if you don't have time, you have to make some time." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
"Your Highness is joking." Gan Luo still looked at Zhao Qingrui indifferently.
"Well, there is something going on. My father is currently marching north to attack the Xiongnu, withdrawing a large number of troops to Shangjun. The Xiongnu and Donghu tribes have also united to fight against the Qin Dynasty."
"People from the Maurya Dynasty have come to Daqin again, wanting to trade and exchange more grain seeds for them." Zhao Qingrui talked about the memorial submitted by Zhang Han.
"That depends on what Your Highness wants." Gan Luo said calmly. In the past few days since he came back, in addition to reading and studying, he also learned about the affairs of the Qin Dynasty.
Your Majesty will lead the army in person. Tribes like the Xiongnu are just the starting point. There are even more vast lands overseas, and even he can't help but yearn for them.
If he were ten years younger, he would want to go out and take a look.
"Grain seeds cannot be traded, of course, but they have quite a few gems. I'm very interested and want to exchange some for them. What do you think, sir?" Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
"It is an honor for those barbarians to have something that Your Highness is interested in." Gan Luo raised his eyebrows. He was not going to interfere in the affairs of the court.
"Sir, were you so smooth before?" Zhao Qingrui chuckled.
"The envoy will arrive in Xianyang in half a month. From what Zhang Han said, I'm afraid he has bad intentions." Zhao Qingrui said helplessly. There are a lot of good things in the Qin Dynasty now.
The envoy of the Maurya Dynasty specifically chose to come when the Qin Dynasty was at war, intending to intervene in the war between the Qin Dynasty and the Xiongnu coalition forces.
It is said that the envoy who came this time was a diplomatic official of the Maurya Empire.
"Those who come here have bad intentions. Your Highness, are you afraid of them?" Gan Luo also laughed.
"How could I be afraid? If the Maurya Dynasty was not so far away from my Great Qin, and my Great Qin's shipbuilding technology was not enough to build a large number of warships, I would definitely report to my father and take action against them in advance." Zhao Qingrui said domineeringly.
"That's all, he's just a small messenger. If they want to intervene, let them do it. It will just show the power of our Great Qin to the outside world and deter the villains." Gan Luo was holding a teacup. He had also been to Shanglin Garden and knew the current strength of the Great Qin army.
With such strength, it is only a matter of time before he unifies the entire world. Gan Luo is not worried at all.
"The Maurya Empire had an elephant army. They tamed elephants to fight and were very powerful." Zhao Qingrui was quite interested in those war elephants.
"What are elephant soldiers?" Gan Luo had never heard of this before.
Zhao Qingrui explained it to him in detail, telling him the advantages and disadvantages of elephant soldiers.
"Such a powerful weapon, fortunately our Great Qin is far away from them. If they were adjacent to our Great Qin, if it were the Great Qin of the past, our Great Qin would be in danger." Gan Luo sighed.
