Chapter 46 Talking freely



On the way back to the main courtyard, Zhao Qingrui was secretly paying attention to her father's teacher.

On the road, he was always half a step behind his father, and seemed to be looking down on his father.

Zhao Qingrui silently kept his discovery in his heart, knowing that he would eventually dig out his father's secret.

As a military general, although he retired early, Zhao Qingrui was secretly paying attention to him, and Wang Jian still noticed it at the first time.

The little princess seemed to have discovered something. She had a sharp insight and was worthy of being His Majesty's child.

Wang Jian was not panicked at all. Although His Majesty had concealed his identity, he would probably confess to the little princess soon.

When Wang Jian thought about the contents of the book he read in Zhangtai Palace and knew that these were all said by Zhao Qingrui, he became very curious about this little princess.

Of course, Ying Zheng did not mention Zhao Qingrui's rebellion plan.

An important guest came to the house, and Zhao Qingrui asked the cook to prepare.

"Why do you want to renovate the backyard? Wouldn't that be great?" Ying Zheng asked with a smile.

"I want to grow more lotus roots and raise some fish."

"You should plant it on the farm; it's spacious there."

"That's too far, and we can't eat that much." Zhao Qingrui shook his head.

"Dad, I want to go back to Jingshui Pavilion these days." She has been in Xianyang for so long. Although there are guards coming to report on things at home, she still wants to go back and take a look, and bring her baby with her.

Dad has no intention of returning to his hometown, so she must bring people to Xianyang and set up things here.

She had already made up her mind. Since her father didn't want to go back, she would stay in Xianyang with him.

Moreover, she missed Dough a little. Without that scheming Green Tea Cat, she always felt that something was missing in her life.

Xianyang is an accident-prone area, and she won't be able to feel at ease unless she makes more preparations.

Having made so many preparations over the years, she didn't want anything to go wrong at the last moment.

Her father was a source of worry to her, so what could she do? She could only make more arrangements.

"What do you want to go back for?" Ying Zheng was stunned. He didn't expect that his daughter actually wanted to go back.

After his daughter came to Xianyang, his living standard improved dramatically, and he didn't want to let his daughter leave.

"Just go back and get some things, and bring some people back. Don't worry, Dad, I won't abandon you." Zhao Qingrui thought his father was afraid that he would not come again after he went back.

"Then when are you leaving? I'll have the guards take you back." Ying Zheng said seriously. The way back was so long, and Zhao Qingrui's identity could no longer be concealed. He was afraid that the remnants of the six countries would attack her.

"The day after tomorrow, Sheng Guanping said he's on vacation tomorrow, so I plan to visit his uncle."

Ever since Sheng Guanping entered the officialdom, he seemed to have become very busy, and the two of them met less and less often.

Perhaps distance creates beauty, she now finds Sheng Guanping much more pleasing to the eye.

The main reason why Sheng Guanping was so honest was because of Ying Zheng's secret warnings. He also arranged a lot of work for him, so his daily schedule was fully packed. How could he have time to come and see Zhao Qingrui?

The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched. Well, now he's starting to steal her father's women. I'll have to warn Shusun Tong later.

"Okay, go ahead. I'll ask Lao Meng to prepare the gifts later."

"Don't worry, sir. I will prepare the gifts." Meng Yi immediately understood what Ying Zheng meant.

"No need, I'm ready." Zhao Qingrui shook her head.

"It's okay. I'll take them with me when the time comes. I can't go because of something. This is also a token of my father's care."

Ying Zheng asked his daughter a lot about what she had been busy with on the farm these days, although he knew all of this.

Wang Jian was a little confused as he listened, not understanding why Zhao Qingrui did all this.

"Listen to Dad." Zhao Qingrui nodded.

Back in the front yard, Zhao Qingrui asked Chunxi to boil water, and she personally made tea for Ying Zheng, Wang Jian and others.

Wang Jian was flattered, "You are so polite, young lady."

"Grandpa Wang, you're so polite. You're my dad's teacher. Just call me by my name." That weird feeling came back. Was Dad really that scary? He made this old man look respectful to both father and daughter. Was this the normal way teachers and students should behave?

"Qing Rui is right, teacher, you are just too polite." Ying Zheng said with a smile.

Wang Jian remained silent. Although he was the emperor's teacher, he would never take advantage of the emperor. It was because he was sensible that the Wang family enjoyed its current prosperity.

As they were talking, Ying Zheng asked Zhao Qingrui how he would reform the talent selection and assessment system.

Zhao Qingrui looked at his father silently, then at Grandpa Wang. What's wrong with his father? There are outsiders here. Can he say these words in front of outsiders?

The corner of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched slightly. How could he not know what his daughter was thinking? "Teacher, he is one of us."

The talents in the court are of varying quality. Since I heard my daughter's remarks, the land system cannot be changed for the time being. Moreover, the spring planting has just ended and the crops have just been planted. Since the land cannot be moved, I should improve other areas first.

"These things are still far away from us. Dad, you have been a little weird lately." Zhao Qingrui looked at his father. Could it be that his father was really persuaded and raised his fighting spirit to prepare for becoming the emperor in the future?

"Really? I'm interested in what you said before. Besides, you are preparing to rebel, and you have made so many preparations. When you succeed, these are what we have to do. I want to familiarize myself with them in advance." Ying Zheng said seriously.

"Cough, cough, cough." Wang Jian, who was drinking water, choked. What did he hear? Was it a rebellion? Was he hallucinating because of his age?

"Mr. Wang, calm down." Meng Yi gently patted Wang Jian's back. He had heard these words many times. His Majesty was so indulgent to the little princess, and he was used to it.

Wang Jian looked at Meng Yi dimly. Okay, what he heard was true. How could he remain calm about this?

"Okay, then let me tell you, if it succeeds, those students won't become successful so quickly when the school is first opened."

"However, there are certainly many truly talented people. The state could directly hold examinations and select talents based on their academic performance and abilities."

"Even the selected talents should be sent to various positions for trial, and the trial period should be set, such as three months."

"The court should also establish an inspection agency, similar to the Imperial Censorate of the Qin Dynasty, to set up comprehensive rules to regulate the behavior of officials..."

The whole set of measures can indeed improve many problems of the Qin Dynasty. Ying Zheng's eyes are shining when he looks at his daughter.

Wang Jian was also frightened when he heard this. With this plan, a large number of people who relied on hereditary power, or came to the court to eat public food but did not do any work, or had no ability, would be directly wiped out.

And judging from the eagerness of His Majesty, he obviously wants to implement it in the court.
