"Clearing the officials and governing the country is facing the wind."

"Now that this humble minister can give you just one word of advice, His Majesty will punish you."

"The truth has chilled the hearts of my ministers. Who will dare to speak out in the future?"

He put his head on the ground and spoke in a very tragic tone, and several others knelt down along with him.

Chu Heng put his big palm on the handle of the dragon chair, and veins suddenly appeared on the back of his hand. He really wanted to chop this stinky scholar with a sword.

Why don't you cut off the Yanguan? What a fucking bullshit!

A slightly childish voice suddenly sounded: "But His Majesty is not in a good mood."

"As a minister, Mr. Fang does not share your Majesty's worries. Instead, he refuses to take responsibility and adds fuel to the fire."

"What should we do if the emperor becomes angry, Mr. Fang?"

Gao Yushi, who had just been arguing with him, immediately stepped out after hearing what Xie Yuheng said:

"Censor Fang wants to do something wrong, and his heart is to be punished! Your Majesty!"

Fang Fengxu was lying on the ground. He was still secretly proud, but now he was confused.

He tried to explain: "I, no, I never meant this, I..."

Chu Heng interrupted: "Okay, I'm not living in peace every day, and the noise gives me a headache."

"The matter of the right minister of the Ministry of Industry will be discussed at the court meeting tomorrow."

"Everyone, please go down. Marquis Jiangling will stay."

All the standing council officers had no choice but to leave regardless of whether they wanted to or not.

After leaving the main hall, Fang Fengxu snorted coldly, "Sharp teeth and sharp mouth."

All the officials remained silent, but everyone knew that he was talking about the Marquis of Jiangling and Xie Yuheng, the number one scholar in the new science.

Gao Yushi snorted disdainfully and said, "Master Fang is very self-aware."

"you!"

Fang Fengxu was about to say something when he was interrupted by Chen Qiu who came out from behind, "Fang Yushi should go to Chengtian Gate to stand guard as soon as possible."

"If it's too late and His Majesty is really angry, can Yushi Fang take the responsibility?"

Fang Fengxu gritted his teeth helplessly and said, "Yes."

He felt that the eyes of his colleagues around him seemed to be full of ridicule, and he couldn't help but hate Xie Yuheng even more.

Especially when Gao Yushi passed by him, he clicked his tongue twice.

Losing face in front of your mortal enemy was even worse than killing him directly!

......

Inside the palace.

Chu Heng, whose ears were finally clean, waved for Xie Yuheng to come over.

Following Chu Heng to the back hall where government affairs were handled, Chu Heng stood beside the desk, looking for something.

After a while, he found a few land deeds from under the memorial and stuffed them into Xie Yuheng's hands.

Chu Heng sighed and said: "This is your grandmother's dowry. Some of it has been sold by Meng Chang, and there is not much left."

A few thin land deeds, but Xie Yuheng felt they weighed a thousand pounds.

I once discussed with Uncle Pei Ji why Meng Chang wanted to marry his grandmother.

One is the clear name of the Pei family, and the other is the dowry of the grandmother.

At that time, the old lady of the Pei family was the daughter of a merchant. Shili Hongzhuang married Uncle Pei Tong, and half of the dowry was given to her grandmother.

It's a pity that after the Pei family fell, Meng Chang didn't even want to pretend anymore...

It's not that he spoiled his concubine and destroyed his wife, but he had a plan a long time ago.

Seeing that the little guy was stunned and didn't speak, Chu Heng was a little embarrassed, so he cleared his throat and said:

"There are also some antique calligraphy and paintings that have been moved by Meng Chang in advance and their whereabouts are currently unknown."

Xie Yuheng looked away, she knew where...

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking the trouble."

Chu Heng clicked his tongue, stretched out his claws to pinch her face, and said with a smile: "You are just a little old, and you will be able to handle it when you get older."

"When there is no one around, call me Uncle Chu just like you did when you were a child."

After saying that, Chu Heng shook his head helplessly.

The little guy was only over a year old at that time, and Dou was a little older, so how could he still remember it.

"Let's go, I'll take you to visit the Royal Garden."

They said they were visiting the Royal Garden, but in fact they only walked for a while before entering a waterside pavilion by a lake.

Everyone in the palace stayed far away, and Chu Heng said: "The son of Chi Er's family had his neck broken by a hoe in Fuchun."

"I think you met him near Ba Ling yesterday."

Xie Yuheng nodded and said: "The size of his funeral team is really arrogant compared to that of a prince."

Although he was telling the truth, Chu Heng could inexplicably sense a sense of adding insult to injury.

I couldn't help but burst into laughter, remembering the news found by the Yangzhou Wude Division last month:

The matter of Chibai's disaster star seemed to be Xie Tingjiang's handiwork.

Fortunately, he has completely wiped out the whole situation. Ren Chi's nephew went there, but couldn't find anything useful.

Chu Heng asked some questions about the steam train.

Xie Yuheng also answered one by one: "Jiangling has a flat terrain, so it is extremely convenient to build wooden rails."

"If you go north to connect with Sili, then enter Shangjing."

"It will have to pass through the Jishan Mountains and the Qinling Mountains, and it may take some years to build."

Chu Heng felt itchy after hearing this, but whenever he thought of the treasury, his heart became terrifyingly calm!

It's not easy to cry in front of the children, so I can only turn it into a sigh and drift away with the autumn wind.

Xie Yuheng could see what Chu Heng was thinking at a glance, and said with a suppressed smile: "Yu Heng has a plan, but he doesn't need to spend money to repair the wooden rails."

Chu Heng's eyes lit up and he said hurriedly: "Oh? What a good idea it is, please tell me."

"Similar to the caravan method, the left and right just let the merchants see the benefits and use their own money to repair the wooden tracks."

"They have to maintain it themselves, and they have to pay money to the court every year."

After hearing this, Chu Heng pondered. He had never seen how fast a steam train was. He only heard a few words between Chen Qiu and his brother.

Businessmen are very profit-oriented. Only the money flows into their own pockets, and there is no reason to take it out.

Xie Yuheng added: "We all heard that Jiaozhou lychees are sweet and delicious, but it's a pity that they were left on the branches."

"The color changes on one day, the fragrance disappears on the second day, the taste changes on the third day. On the fourth or fifth day, the color, fragrance and fragrance are lost."

"It is to enter Yangzhou from the northeast of Jiaozhou, take the water route, and then turn to the land route."

"It is kept on ice every day, and it cannot be sent to Shangjing before its color, fragrance and flavor are lost."

"But if there is a wooden track from Jiaozhou to Beijing, the steam train can arrive not only in two or three days, but in four or five days."

Chu Heng's heart grew hotter when he heard this, and he said with emotion: "Since I left Jiaozhou, I haven't eaten fresh lychees for several years."

Most of them are preserved fruits made from lychees. As for the lychees being transported to Beijing at an accelerated speed of 800 miles...

He is not a fool like Chu Tianchen! Waste people and money!

"If there are people selling fresh lychees in the east and west cities today, will Uncle Chu take people out of the palace to buy them?"

Xie Yuheng held his head high and asked the Lord of Liang with a smile.

"meeting!"

Chu Heng blurted out without thinking.

"In this case, the right to use the wooden rails can be set at a higher level."

Chu Heng made a quick calculation in his mind. If what the little guy said was true, why worry about no one paying for it?

I am afraid that by then, merchants will fight over the rights to the wooden tracks.

In this way, a law can be added, and those who damage the wooden rails must pay high compensation!

Half of the money lost will go into the national treasury, and half will be given to merchants to build roads!

It not only warns people with evil intentions, increases the confidence of merchants, but also increases the revenue of the treasury.
