"Perhaps I have matured and am no longer as naive as before." Sheng Guanping chuckled. "To be honest, I did quite a few things that went beyond my rights. If it weren't for Your Highness's kindness, how could I have continued to work for the Qin Dynasty?"
"That's nothing. Only friends can have such a good relationship." Zhao Qingrui looked at Sheng Guanping.
"It is my honor to be your Highness's friend." Sheng Guanping said respectfully.
"We are so familiar with each other, there is no need to be so strict in private." Zhao Qingrui said helplessly.
After becoming the crown prince, she was basically busy with court affairs, and her relationship with these friends became increasingly distant.
Sheng Guanping was silent and didn't say anything. The situation now was completely different from before.
If he really dared to act as unruly as he did at home, his life would be over.
Seeing that Sheng Guanping was unwilling to say more, Zhao Qingrui did not force her. Everything had changed since she knew that she was the daughter of the First Emperor.
But even if she was not the daughter of the First Emperor, she and Sheng Guanping probably would not have been able to be together.
-----------------
After leaving Shusun Tong's house, Zhao Qingrui went to visit Yin Man again.
Yin Man has now returned to her job and is doing a good job at the official newspaper.
"I don't know how things are going with my father. Is Meng Yang injured?" Yin Man supported her cheek, feeling a little depressed.
Zhao Qingrui chuckled, "Are you worried about your father or your husband?"
"You're looking for a fight. Can't I just worry about it?" Yin Man glared at her, but her ears turned red, feeling a little embarrassed.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? Just ask me directly, I know." Zhao Qingrui joked that people of this era are still too reserved.
Suddenly, she felt a little envious of Yin Man.
"Good sister, tell me quickly." Yin Man immediately sat up straight and took Zhao Qingrui's hand, her eyes full of flattery.
"Don't worry, father and Meng Yang are both fine. They are now attacking the Huns coalition. Meng Yang is with Wang Li and the others, and they are currently encircling the Huns coalition." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.
She had full confidence in this war. After all, under absolute strength, no matter how smart and capable Maodun Chanyu was, he could not turn the tide of the war.
"I heard from my mother and others that when people from the Meng family lead troops into battle, they like to lead the charge and always be at the forefront. Alas, sometimes I also wish Meng Yang was not a military general." Yin Man sighed.
"Don't worry, Meng Yang is very powerful." Zhao Qingrui comforted him. After practicing physical skills for so long, if Meng Yang still died in the war, he would be a waste.
Having enjoyed so many resources, Meng Yang's strength is countless times stronger than those of ordinary generals.
However, Yin Man didn’t know all this and was still secretly worried about Meng Yang.
She didn't take Zhao Qingrui's comfort to heart.
Seeing Yin Man's worried look, Zhao Qingrui quickly changed the subject, "I haven't seen Cong'er for a while. I wonder how he's doing now?"
"He's fine, he can eat and sleep well." When mentioning her son, Yin Man's face was filled with a gentle smile again.
"I'll go with you to see him later."
The two sisters were chatting in the office. When Zhao Qingrui came over, no one else dared to disturb them.
When we returned to the East Palace, it was already evening.
As soon as she came back, she saw Lu Zhi coming to her with a pile of government affairs.
"Why are there still so many? I remember that I had almost dealt with everything when I left." Zhao Qingrui looked at the pile of things in pain.
"Your Highness, this is about the development of Liaodong County. Prince Fusu wrote this letter, and this is his own development plan." Lu Zhi said seriously.
"Brother, let me take a look at your development plan." Zhao Qingrui perked up.
Zhao Qingrui picked it up and read it carefully. There were more than a thousand criminals at once. Fusu first asked these people to open up wasteland.
The population in Liaodong County is sparse, and relying solely on the people is definitely not enough to reclaim the land.
These more than a thousand people cannot play a big role, but they are still very good for labor reform.
Looking at Fusu's plan, Zhao Qingrui's brows gradually furrowed.
In these plans, the local noble family Tian was mentioned several times in succession. The development of Liaodong County required a large number of manpower, and the Tian family had some people who were even willing to fund the court to develop Liaodong County.
However, these people's help is not in vain.
"Tian family? It seems that the royal family of Qi has the surname Gui, Tian family. Interesting. Brother, haven't you thought about it?" Zhao Qingrui murmured.
"He wants to obtain the monopoly of salt in Liaodong County, and he also wants to manage the post office and the official newspaper office, under the pretext of relieving the court's worries." Looking at these items, Zhao Qingrui laughed.
There is no need to say much about salt. The post office was specifically used to transmit information to the imperial court, especially important official documents. The importance of the post office is self-evident.
The Dibao Office was in charge of public opinion. In addition to the official newspapers, each place also began to print local newspapers.
These people have a good plan in order to control the information channels and public opinion.
Looking at the memorial written by Fusu, he only asked for two people to enter these places and for the right to operate salt.
It's easy to say. Zhao Qingrui even wanted to pry open Fusu's head to see what he was thinking.
Let's look at what they are willing to pay. In addition to sending hundreds of people to open up wasteland, they are willing to contribute to the construction of schools in Liaodong County and are even willing to provide dozens of teachers for local schools.
Good guy, just turn the school into your home.
