"Yes, we can't drink. My grandfather also said that there are many dangers outside and we have to be careful." Wang Wei said seriously.
"Okay then." Zhang Buyi said with some regret. He actually just wanted to taste the wine.
"I don't know where my grandfather and the others went to play. If I had known earlier, I should have followed him. It would have been very interesting." As they walked towards the restaurant, Ziying thought about what happened when the First Emperor and the others left.
"Grandfather won't take you with him. He doesn't like children." Yue curled her lips. Grandfather took some guards and left without caring about them.
However, when the grandfather had a fierce look on his face, he was also very scary, and none of his brothers and sisters dared to get close to him.
"You want a beating." Ziying knocked on Yue's head speechlessly. He would be happier if this girl kept her mouth shut.
"Grandfather and the others have a big ship. If we were all inexperienced, I would have wanted to go out to sea to play." Ziying said regretfully.
"Then next time we go, we will save more money and buy a big ship, and then we will go out to sea." Zhang Buyi was eager to try. They also knew some things about overseas from newspapers.
Overseas is a big place with lots of good things and other human beings.
They are too young now, and even if they want to go out to sea, the adults will not agree.
"How to make money?" Li Yuan asked everyone.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. This really stumped them.
"Forget it, let's talk about this later. It's time to go eat now." Ziying waved his hand, not wanting to think about these bad things.
The matter of Ziying and his friends going out to study was discussed among the people of several families. Knowing that there was no danger and that they all had the ability to protect themselves, they allowed them to go out.
However, after these people were gone from the school, the whole school seemed to be quieter.
Zhao Qingrui's life was not peaceful at all, and things in the court began to increase.
With the arrival of summer, there is more rain and the river water begins to rise. Some places are also a little dry. Zhao Qingrui is planning to dig a river channel.
The South-to-North Water Diversion Project is totally unrealistic for the current Qin Dynasty.
Now we can only improve little by little, and take it slowly.
In the court, Zhao Qingrui announced his decision.
"Your Majesty, this is not possible. The people should rest and recuperate now. It is not appropriate to start these large projects." Someone immediately stood up to object.
"That's right, such a large project requires a lot of manpower and will take many years to complete." Many people agreed.
"Using gunpowder to split mountains and rocks will reduce a lot of engineering workload." Zhao Qingrui really wanted to dig a canal, but he couldn't do it like Yang Guang did, otherwise something would go wrong sooner or later.
"Your Majesty, gunpowder is used in wars. It would be a waste to use it to split mountains and rocks." Li Si hesitated.
The research institute has invested a lot of money, especially in weapons research, and has achieved some results in recent years.
Things like gunpowder were classified as secrets of the Qin Dynasty. Using such powerful things to split mountains and rocks is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. These projects can be carried out by the people as long as they have the resources.
Zhao Qingrui looked at the group of people who were refuting her with a headache and felt a little depressed.
"Okay, let's not worry about digging the river this year. The other river channels should also be tidied up this year to avoid floods after the water level rises. Where is Li Yu?" Zhao Qingrui rubbed his eyebrows.
The current population of the Qin Dynasty is about 50 million, half of which has only increased in recent years. When the First Emperor was in power, the population was only more than 20 million.
The population of Daqin is still too small. If the common people are mobilized to dig canals, it will have a significant impact on Daqin.
The emperor, too, doesn't know why he should work for a few more years until the population reaches over 100 million before letting her take over. Then she will be able to do whatever she wants, unlike now, when she is restricted in everything she does.
No, we need to encourage more childbirth.
"I'm here." Li Yu stood up.
"Mr. Li is familiar with water control. I order you to go to various places to dredge rivers." Zhao Qingrui looked at Li Yu and said. Li Yu is now in his middle age and looks strong and dignified.
"I obey your command." This happened every year, and he calmly accepted the task. This was His Majesty's recognition of his ability to control floods.
Xiaobai left and returned to the Xianyang Palace. Zhao Qingrui was a little uncomfortable with the fact that Xiaobai would not pounce on her at any time.
After reviewing the memorial, Zhao Qingrui leisurely ate some snacks and asked the people from the Music Bureau to come over and perform some singing and dancing to help him relax.
I don’t know where my father is now, and Zhao Qingrui misses him a little.
In the past, she didn’t think it was a big deal that her father was not often at home. But in the past few years, she stayed in Xianyang and spent more time with her father. Now that her father is gone, she is a little uncomfortable with such a life.
"Shang Lian, is there any fun place? I feel so bored." Zhao Qingrui supported his head and looked at Shang Lian sideways.
"There are not many places to visit in Xianyang City. If Your Majesty feels bored, you can go to the horse farm." Shang Lian suggested seriously.
Compared to other entertainment, horse riding can also exercise the body. Your Majesty stays in the palace for a long time to handle government affairs and rarely has time to exercise.
At present, she is His Majesty's personal secretary, so she must take this matter seriously.
"I don't want to go horse racing. Let's go to the training ground for archery. I don't know if my archery skills are still accurate." Zhao Qingrui immediately became energetic.
