[Qing] If you don't work hard, you will be forced to inherit the throne

The little eunuch who accompanied the emperor was named Wei Zhu, who was about the same age as Yu Zhu, with quick legs and quick hands and feet, and the most rare thing was that he was very good at winking.

Liang Jiugong often accompanied the emperor, and the little eunuch Wei Zhu ran errands in obscurity, and gradually, after being promoted by Liang Jiugong, he became the chief eunuch in charge of one department.

In the Forbidden City, the eunuchs are as good as the sky, so they are like Liang Jiugong, right?

Deeply trusted by the emperor, the biggest chief among the eunuchs is in charge of all the eunuchs in the palace. Wei Zhu occasionally thinks, when Eunuch Liang gets old, there will always be room for their young people, right?

After a few more years and doing more things, maybe he can be as beautiful as Eunuch Liang?

The seniors all said that the golden whisk in Liang Jiugong's hand was a status symbol, and holding the whisk in his hand, he felt like walking with wind in his feet.

Because of this, when Kangxi ordered all the eunuchs in Qianqing Palace to take a whisk, Wei Zhu was flattered.

He has been with Eunuch Liang for a few years, and what he got now is a silver whisk!

At this moment, Wei Zhu took the task and rushed to find His Highness the Crown Prince, holding a silver whisk in his hand.

He arrived outside the household department, but before he entered it, he heard Chen Tingjing's voice of resistance: "Your Highness, you can't do it!"

"I think it's okay, Mr. Chen, don't struggle!"

"No, you can't..."

Wei Zhu looked in curiously, and saw Mrs. Chen holding the account book tightly with both hands, refusing the prince's approach, his unyielding appearance, very much like a lady from a good family who was favored by bandits.

Other officials of the household department were divided into two factions, and some of them persuaded him earnestly: "Chen Shangshu, turning over the accounts is a good thing. If you rewrite the profit by using the forms, scales and graphs mentioned by His Royal Highness, you can see it at a glance." .”

Another group of people persuaded the prince: "Your Highness, please let Mr. Chen go. The emperor said that the excess silver in the treasury will prepare for war. No matter how profitable overseas trade is, Mr. Chen will not be accommodating."

The prince was very wronged and said: "Gu didn't say that he needed money, but he just said to see how much money he made. Is it necessary to guard Gu against thieves? Anyway, Gu also holds a post in the household department."

Chen Tingjing vowed to die: "How many accounts can I let you know?"

The prince will definitely dance above the emperor's bottom line, and spend all the money that can be used in a daze.

"The rest of the treasury's wealth is no small matter. It is related to the future development of the Qing Dynasty. The emperor said that we must leave room for accidents that will occur in the future."

To let the crown prince know how much is left, one plan after another will go to the cabinet and the emperor's case. Even Chen Tingjing himself is not sure if he can control himself not to be tempted after reading it.

What if the emperor can't hold back and imagines a new blueprint for future construction, and the courtiers are eager for quick success because of the temptation?

The emperor said that the court needs a sober person to face the temptation given by His Royal Highness.When the emperor himself is deeply involved, someone needs to jump out to remind them, let him wake up whether he is too eager.

Kangxi: That person must be Aiqing!

The pressure Chen Tingjing is facing is not so great. He still has unfulfilled ideals and ambitions. How can he resign directly like Sha Cheng?

Sometimes, Chen Tingjing really wanted to be transferred to work in other ministries, and he didn't want to stay in the position of Minister of the Household Department anymore!

Wei Zhu's arrival rescued Chen Tingjing, if he was one step late, he might be able to see Master Chen being forced into a corner and become angry from embarrassment.

The prince regretfully gave up reasoning with Mr. Chen, and said to Chen Tingjing step by step, "Khan Ama asked Gu to go over, that's just right, and Gu will ask Khan Ama for an imperial edict. With Khan Ama's order, Chen Tingjing Your lord won't refuse again, will you?"

Chen Tingjing's eyebrows were cold and cold, and he said bitterly: "Then you have to ask the emperor to get the imperial edict!"

He hugged several books of account books tightly, like an old hen who was tightly guarding the chicks among the eagles catching the chicks.

This ledger has been seen by the servants of the household department, and it has been handled by many officials. It records the commercial and tax profits of foreign trade, and it is not a secret that needs to be kept.If Chen Tingjing hadn't discovered it first, Jiang Hongdao, the servant on the right, would have almost sent the ledger to the prince.

After the prince regretted leaving, Chen Tingjing severely criticized Jiang Hongdao's behavior.

"We have reached the current position. We are in charge of the national treasury and the money bag of the whole Qing Dynasty. How can we give up our bottom line because of personal relationships and soft-heartedness? Are you 'collaborating' with the prince?!"

Jiang Hong said: "..."

The rest of the officials whispered: "His Royal Highness is not a villain, and it is not to commit crimes by looking at the books."

"Shh, don't say a few words, Chen Shangshu has recently been stimulated by the prince's melody and became a frightened bird."

"The emperor gave Mr. Chen such a task, and Mr. Chen is also very difficult to do."

It is only to blame that the emperor himself did not reject His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but let his courtiers be the "wicked people". Mr. Chen was sandwiched between them, and he had to suffer a lot. The top was poured with ice water, and the bottom was roasted by flames.How to resist the temptation from His Royal Highness to draw big cakes is the biggest difficulty he has faced since he has been an official for decades!

Chen Tingjing murmured: "The emperor said that before the war is confirmed, any major projects that need to consume money will be postponed."

Yinfeng followed Wei Zhu, glanced at the whisk in his hand, and felt that the style of the whisk was slightly familiar, why did it look so much like the silver whisk that Ama Khan beat him to pieces?

"Eunuch Wei, you fly whisk?"

Wei Zhu smiled and said: "The emperor has rewarded all the eunuchs with positions in the Qianqing Palace. The eunuch who is in charge of a place like a slave has a silver whisk in his hand."

Yinreng felt dizzy: Why did it feel like Gu was surrounded by whisks overnight?

[Beating big friends for convenience? 】

No, no, he has grown up, Khan Ama beat him, it is tantamount to beating his own face, from now on everyone will know that the emperor taught filial sons under the stick, and he must not secretly laugh at Khan Ama behind others.

Therefore, letting the eunuchs also take the whisk is to deter him, so that he will collapse all the time, and don't go off the tune after saying a few words.

On the other side, Wendur Gegen waited for a while, and he really saw the crown prince rushing over.

Kangxi said to Wendur Gegen: "The scientific development of the capital was promoted by the prince alone. The prince understands astronomy and geography, and is also very proficient in the field of geology. Maybe he can answer many doubts of Zhebu Zumba."

Yinfeng was thrown to Zhebu Zumba by Kangxi just like that, staring at the knowledgeable Living Buddha.

Wendur Gegen asked gently: "This microscope is formed of several raised glass mirrors. I have always known that there is a telescopic mirror that can magnify the distance by 750 times. How did it do it?"

Yinfeng wondered: "This is a long story, and we need to mention the principle of optics."

Wendur Gegen will not retreat easily, he firmly believes that the microscope that can observe the tiny world is an invention as powerful as Pan Gu's, which is enough to change people's understanding of the world.

He has enough patience to explore deeper mysteries, which is of great help to practice: "Your Highness, please tell me."

Yinfeng cleared his throat, sat upright and said: "A microscope is essentially formed by a combination of convex lenses, using different focal points to achieve the effect of a convex lens in a convex lens. The eyepiece can magnify seven times, so under the combined effect, the product obtained is the total magnification..."

The more he talked, the more confused Jeb Zumba became. Kangxi smiled deeper when he saw this.

The principle of the microscope involves optics and mathematics, and these two knowledges are exactly what he learned.

Seeing that the prince repeated what Jebu Zumba said with a confused expression on his face, he immediately realized that he might be as wise as Jebu Zumba, and he hadn't turned his head around yet.

Kangxi felt a sense of pride and superiority: my prince is intelligent and knowledgeable.It turns out that someone as wise as Jeb Zumba is sometimes criticized.

He couldn't help sighing: Science is really mysterious and fascinating. Fortunately, I am enlightened enough to support Baocheng in setting up the Daqing Research Institute.

People who have been in the capital may not feel the amazing changes that have occurred year by year. When they look at the nomadic tribes in the deep inland, they suddenly feel that their management methods are so primitive and backward.

To teach Jebzumba optics and mathematics, of course it is more understandable to go to the field to teach.

Yinfeng took him to the Imperial Research Institute of the Qing Dynasty, and started to explain the basics of optics, explaining the principles of the microscope thoroughly.

Yinfeng: To be honest, talking about science with Living Buddha is a very novel thing.

Jeb Zumba is obviously very interested in the various inventions of the institute. Research on grain seeds, livestock, and fertilizers are closely related to people's livelihood, and there are also flush toilets and rubber rain boots that change people's lives...

He also put on rain boots himself and tried to walk in the mud.

To deal with rainy days, in addition to rain boots, there are rain capes and umbrellas, and rubber is also wrapped on the carriage to prevent shocks.

Now the research institute has set up a new project called "The method of sterilization and preservation of goat milk/milk".

All this is also due to the fact that Daqing introduced Holstein dairy cows, and after combining with cattle, it produced Daqing native dairy cows with rich milk production.These milks were first supplied from the pastures to the surrounding areas for sale. With a microscope, the bacteria in the fresh milk can be seen. The research found that if the method of high-temperature boiling is adopted, the bacteria in the milk can be reduced a lot.

Jeb Zumba visited with relish and had the opportunity to taste a glass of food called chocolate milk.

The next day, Yinfeng made an appointment with him to take him to visit the Daqing Medical Research Center.

The Medical Research Center has an anatomy room and all the medical books that can be collected from ancient times to the present.

Starting from the understanding of anatomy, and deepening the knowledge of biology, what Jeb Zumba is facing is a brand new door to the new world!

Since the emperor discussed the strategy of governing Khalkha Mongolia with the ministers in the court, the ministers have come up with various methods for how to trade with them and deepen ties.

Some said to buy cattle and sheep, sell them clothes, and some said to sell porcelain and colored glaze.

All these were rejected by the emperor one by one.

It is obviously not enough to sell clothes and buy cattle and sheep. Porcelain and colored glaze?These are not necessities in the prairie, but just for viewing. Foreigners regard them as treasures, but the Mongols do not have a great demand for them.

Kangxi was worrying about this, but he didn't expect that Zhebu Zumba himself proposed to trade with the Qing Dynasty.

The purchase of advanced things such as microscopes is a must, and more importantly, he proposed that the Qing Dynasty send people to Khalkha Mongolia for development!

Instead of sending the princess to marry, I am expecting literati and doctors with advanced knowledge to go there to teach their people to get rid of ignorance and learn science.He plans to establish a school and a medical center in his hometown!

The Mongolian doctors in Khalkha Mongolia have always had a bad reputation, because the Mongolian doctors are too heavy handed, and the medicine is fierce. If it is really a serious illness, it is possible to put it to death.There was also a Mongolian doctor in the imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty, who was good at treating bone injuries, but because of the bad reputation of the Mongolian doctor, few people dared to call him out.

Jebu Zumba mentioned: "The grasslands are rich in cattle, sheep and horses, and wool is available in everything, which can be exchanged in the market."

It is obvious that Mongolia does not want to build schools and medical centers from scratch. Once there are schools and medical centers, a series of effects will be formed in the local area, such as the birth of a market, the birth of a city...

These nomadic herdsmen would send their children and grandchildren to school, and they would gather at the medical center when they were injured or sick.

They will gradually change from a completely loose state of wandering to wandering outside with a gathering center. No matter how far they nomad go, they will eventually gather towards places with schools and medical centers.

When Kangxi thought about it deeply, he had already thought of so much, not to mention the deeper influence and control.

As soon as the emperor thought that Khalkha Mongols would completely submit to Mongolia, and the territory of the Qing Dynasty was firmly in its heyday, his heart was filled with enthusiasm. At the request of Jebu Zumba, he blurted out: "Order the Ministry of Rites to select the list of personnel who will go to Mongolia, build a school and Medical center, appropriation..."

"Your Majesty!—" Chen Tingjing blurted out and stood up: "Your Majesty, building a school and a medical center will take a long time. Khalkha is so big, how much should be built? The treasury appropriation should not be easily promised!"

Kangxi paused for a while, and immediately closed his mouth.

He raised his forehead in trouble: on the one hand, there is a way to govern and manage Mongolia well, and on the other hand, there is a tight treasury, which is too embarrassing for me.

He looked at the prince who had nothing to do with him, the prince's eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "Ama Khan, my son also has something to say!"

"Khalka's Mongolian grazing wool is too much to count. If it is a mutual market, it will be a good thing for the Qing Dynasty. My son has prepared a plan for the prosperity of the textile industry..."

When Chen Tingjing heard this, his eyes suddenly went dark.

Your Majesty, I can't take it anymore!
