If the business woman does not help the poor, the villain's dream of prosperity will be shatter

Qin Shu laughed when she heard that.

Fu Rong couldn't help but smile along.

After laughing, Qin Shu looked at the village in the distance and sighed: "Thank you, Ah-Ying. It is the greatest luck in my life to have you as a friend."

"But I can't be so selfish and put you and your family in danger just to save my own life."

Fu Rong looked at Qin Shu in silence.

Qin Shu turned her head, looked at him and smiled: "Have you ever thought that if Prince Ning reported the matter of the musket to the emperor, Prince Jin would definitely know about it. Do you think he would allow you and me to join forces?"

Qin Shu has silver and muskets, and Fu Ying has mechanical engineering.

The powerful combination of the two will be what those in power fear the most.

What's more, Qin Shu didn't tell anyone about the incident that happened last time in Prince Jin's Mansion.

In the eyes of Prince Jin, Qin Shuruo was just an advisor or a subordinate. Why would the Princess of Jin embarrass her time and again?

There has been no news from the capital yet.

If Prince Ning really did as they guessed, he would use the Qishan incident to frame Qin Shu and Fu Ying for conspiracy to rebel.

At this time, the two of them promised to spend their lives together. Didn't this confirm the rumor?

Fu Ying's face turned pale, and he looked at Qin Shu with pity and loss in his eyes.

Qin Shu smiled gently and said, "When this matter is over, I will leave the gun to you."

Fu Ying interrupted her quickly, "Shu'er, I'm not..."

"I know." Qin Shu continued, "There are many talented people in the world. Even if you don't do it, others will succeed in making the musket appear in the world sooner or later."

"This world won't always be like this. Everyone is moving forward, and so are we."

"Since you are the head of the Fu family, you have the heavy responsibility of seeking profits for the entire family. I have saved you before, but you have also saved me from danger several times."

She looked at Fu Ying and smiled faintly, "We are even now. A man born in this world should use what he has learned throughout his life to achieve unparalleled achievements, so as to live up to his life."

Qin Shu took a long breath and said loudly: "Although Qin Shu is a woman, she has great ambitions and aspirations in her heart. After traveling thousands of miles, she doesn't want to be trapped in the small space of the backyard and be a good wife and mother who obeys her husband's orders."

She squinted her eyes and looked into the distance, the corners of her lips raised, her smile calm and frank, "I would rather die than live without freedom."

Fu Ying stared at Qin Shu's profile in a trance, and his heartbeat in his chest gradually became deafening.

*

The emperor's edict ordering Qin Shu and Fu Ying to return to the capital to report the emperor's orders was finally delivered to Jincheng at full speed on the third day after the two returned to Fu's home.

The Fu family guards who stayed in Jincheng passed the news back to the clan.

Before setting off, Fu Rong went to the cave and took the short gun with him.

The person who came to announce the decree was Li Dexian, the chief steward of Qingyuan Palace.

Li Dexian was escorted by a group of imperial guards.

Inside the imperial guards, Qin Shu saw Li Youlin and Xiao Cheng.

Therefore, in the court today, Prince Jin still holds a sure victory.

After entering Beijing, the convoy passed through Lin'an Street.

Prince Ning's Mansion is on this street.

Qin Shu gently lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw from afar the imperial guards holding long spears standing upright and solemnly in front of the Ning Wang Mansion.

Noticing her gaze, Li Youlin rode forward and lowered his voice, "His Royal Highness Prince Ning contradicted the Emperor a few days ago, causing the Emperor to be furious. He was confined to his palace and was asked to reflect on his mistakes facing the wall."

Qin Shu couldn't help but chuckle: The emperor has always favored Prince Ning, how could he get angry easily?

It should be she who asked Feng San to secretly spread the news that Prince Ning wanted to rebel, which aroused the emperor's vigilance and fear.

Perhaps, it is also possible that Prince Ning wanted to take action against the emperor, and the emperor was prepared in advance because of these rumors.

Prince Ning tried to steal the chicken but ended up losing the rice and ended up getting himself into trouble.

After arriving in Beijing, the group went straight into the palace, and the two were arranged to stay in the Chengyun Hall of the former dynasty.

The second day was the grand court meeting held once every ten days.

As the "imperial envoy" in charge of promoting grain planting, Qin Shu reported to the emperor the results of the promotion of new grain planting.

At this time, the corn has just been stored in the warehouse and the sweet potatoes are not yet ripe.

As early as when promoting the method of eating corn, Qin Shu ordered people to make a booklet on how to eat corn and hand it to the head of each village.

Each village has called together villagers to try to make new grain.

With winter wheat and this crop of corn, people will at least not have to worry about food shortages this winter and next spring.

The emperor laughed happily and said, "Qin, I still remember that I promised you a promise before. This time, you have made such a great contribution. What reward do you want?"

Qin Shu tilted her head and thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you reward me with an official position?"

"Absolutely not!" Zhang Yun, the Imperial Censor, stepped forward and shouted, "Your Majesty, absolutely not!"

The emperor asked curiously, "Oh, Zhang Qing, can you tell me about it?"

Zhang Yun straightened his back and bowed, and replied: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, men have been in charge of the outside world and women have been in charge of the inside world. Women should stay in the backyard, support their husbands and raise children, manage the household chores, be filial to their parents-in-law, and support their husbands and raise children. This is their duty."

"To be so prominent and even to try to deceive the master and steal power, isn't this the biggest joke in the world?"

Qin Shu said, "Master Zhang, what you said is wrong! I have never deceived the Lord to flatter the emperor. I have only done my duty for His Majesty. How could I deceive the Lord to steal power?"

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, holy and wise, how could you be easily deceived? The women of our Great Zhou can do great things and serve the country. It is because your majesty is holy and wise, and he appoints people based on their merits. This is a sign of the prosperity of the Great Zhou."

"How come when Lord Zhang said that the Great Zhou was full of talented people, it became a joke?"

Zhang Yun was so angry that his old face turned red and his beard flew upside down. "A hen crowing at dawn is the downfall of the family. Reversing yin and yang is the way to failure!"

Qin Shu retorted, "Every inch has its own strengths and weaknesses. What's wrong with being a woman? Women can also be loyal to the emperor and contribute to the country."

"What the common people want is nothing more than three meals a day, a roof over their heads, and enough clothes to cover their bodies. If the people are safe, the king is safe; if the people are happy, the king is happy. I am willing to worry for you, Lord Zhang. May I ask where I am wrong?"

Zhang Yun pointed at Qin Shu with trembling hands, "You, you..."

Qin Shu retorted, "What's wrong with me? Lord Zhang, what do you think?"

Zhang Yun knelt down in the hall with a plop, and said with tears streaming down his face, "Your Majesty, this woman is good at speaking and arguing, and she speaks nonsense. Your Majesty must not be deceived by her!"

"Your Majesty, please do not forget that this woman and Fu Rong from the Ministry of Works and Water Resources were suspected of colluding with gangsters and killing soldiers from Yizhou Prefecture with the intention of treason. The matter remains unsolved, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Ying immediately knelt down and replied, "Your Majesty, I am innocent!"

Qin Shu also said: "Your Majesty is wise. Lord Zhang said that I intend to rebel. May I ask Lord Zhang, what is the purpose of my rebellion?"

She stretched out her hands in front of her, "Use my hands? I am just a lone woman, how can I have the power to defeat a million strong troops alone? Lord Zhang, what do you think of the millions of soldiers who have kept the enemy out of the country?"
