Wen Qingzhu laughed and said, "Now is your chance! Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants have distinct hierarchies. Most people would rather work as farmers than become craftsmen and merchants, but Mr. Liang has embarked on the path of managing craftsmen.
Even so, he still tried his best to complete his task. Only then did the Liang family slowly recommend my son from the Ministry of Works. Mr. Liang is a person with a big heart and should not be buried like this. "
"But now his status as consort means that he cannot interfere in government affairs!" Jiang Wuyang didn't understand what she meant by these words.
Wen Qingzhu then slowly explained: "This world naturally belongs to the people of the world, whether they are scholars, farmers, or even workers and merchants, all are indispensable. The distinction between high and low is just to better rule the world, but if Does the emperor value workers and merchants?"
Jiang Wuyang suddenly stood up: "You mean, this is the prince's idea? He wants to implement the New Deal?"
Wen Qingzhu frowned slightly, but said bluntly: "To be precise, this is my advice to the prince. I want to implement the New Deal!"
"You-" Jiang Wuyang was speechless.
Her first thought was that the prince was just a puppet.
But when he thought of Wen Qingzhu, Jiang Wuyang felt that if she really had that idea, wouldn't it be better to just marry the prince
Jiang Wuyang sat down and decided to listen carefully.
If Wen Qingzhu really wants to implement the New Deal, it will only be more beneficial to the Liang family.
Even if her husband is reused, he will no longer have regrets.
Seeing that she was finally moved, Wen Qingzhu said directly: "The Ministry of Industry does not have a prominent position among the six ministries, but the previous canal project, as well as the current Kangcheng and surrounding workshops, they can accommodate the people who can produce Commodities are not inferior to farmers, and even more efficient when people are concentrated! The Ministry of Industry should not be what it is now."
After saying this, Jiang Wuyang became more and more excited.
But she was born in the palace and was somewhat familiar with government affairs, so this was difficult.
Slowly, Jiang Wuyang calmed down, thinking that she had just met Wen Qingzhu at the gate of the Hou Mansion.
She looked up: "Did you wait for me at the door on purpose?"
"It seems that nothing can be hidden from the eldest princess." Wen Qingzhu smiled modestly.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Jiang Wuyang, who could live safely under Jiang Yue's rule, was indeed not an ordinary person.
Jiang Wuyang was a little worried: "Such a change is basically a drastic change. Now that everything in the capital has stabilized, and the prince is still young and has experienced few things, they must know that you borrowed the prince's hand to implement these things."
"Previously, Prime Minister Pei proposed to send back the people of Kangcheng. I have refuted him in public and expressed my attitude. I even cleaned up the palace a few days ago. I'm afraid they are already thinking of ways to deal with me. I don't want to You can stop, but since the prince wants to be the emperor, he should think about the people, not the glory and wealth of these ministers."
Wen Qingzhu's eyes became far away, the previous dynasty, the previous dynasty was destroyed.
Invariably, the number of aristocrats is increasing day by day, and the people are being exploited more and more seriously, and they finally rise up to resist while they are still alive.
After a bloodbath, a new dynasty was established.
Now more than a hundred years have passed since Da Qi. The imperial power has become increasingly stable, and the nobility has risen and fallen, but overall it is constantly increasing.
But the people are the foundation of the country, and Wen Qingzhu does not want Daqi to collapse quickly.
Even if Jiang Yuanhan is not a good king, Wen Qingzhu must make him a good king before leaving.
Wen Qingzhu's words made Jiang Wuyang understand the pros and cons.
This is an opportunity, a great opportunity.
It's just that the road ahead is thorny and full of difficulties. If you are not careful, you may capsize.
Jiang Wuyang stood up: "I need to discuss this matter with my father-in-law."
"Of course you can." Wen Qingzhu stood up and said goodbye.
But Jiang Wuyang refused, and she gave Wen Qingzhu a complicated look for the last time.
An idea vaguely surfaced in his mind. If Wen Qingzhu were a man, the world would be in the palm of his hand.
As soon as Jiang Wuyang left, Wen Qingzhu went out immediately.
Under normal circumstances, she should go to Cannes to see the progress in Ninh Binh.
But what she did couldn't be hidden from Pei Yu, and naturally she couldn't hide it from Wei Ziying.
So Wen Qingzhu arrived at the Wei family.
Sitting in the flower hall, except for the maid who came to serve tea, no one could be seen.
Wen Qingzhu originally wanted to visit Mrs. Wei's wife, but the maid said that Mrs. Wei was unwell and could not see guests.
She had no choice but to give up.
Although I guessed that this might be just an excuse, her current identity and actions were indeed a bit excessive.
After waiting for about half an hour, Wei Ziying still didn't come.
Wen Qingzhu was a little frustrated. It would be nice if the teacher was here.
When Wen Qingzhu thought of his teacher, he began to worry again.
Since the teacher left for Dingyuan, no news has come back.
Lu Ce rebelled against the Huns again, but there was no movement on the northwest border.
If there was any movement, she would be able to respond according to the movement.
The lack of movement now would only make her feel more uneasy.
There was finally movement outside the door, and Wen Qingzhu stood up immediately.
The person who came was not Wei Ziying, but Mrs. Wei, the former eldest lady of the Wei family and Wei Ziying's wife.
"I've met the old lady." Wen Qingzhu saluted and said hello.
Mrs. Wei hurriedly helped her sit down: "Are you welcome? I have something to do temporarily. I went out just now. I thought I would be back soon, but I didn't expect to be delayed this time, so I came here."
"In that case, I'll come again next time." Wen Qingzhu was about to stand up.
But Mrs. Wei held her down and said, "Wait a moment, I want to talk to you about something."
Wen Qingzhu sat down in response.
Mrs. Wei has a kind look on her face and a smile on her lips.
It's just that compared to the past two years, she is much older, and wrinkles are slowly spreading on her face.
"Qingzhu, there are actually some things I should have said a long time ago, but I never met you, so I never said them."
Wen Qingzhu smiled, vaguely guessing what she was going to say.
Mrs. Wei's eyes were filled with worry as she said, "Now that the prince is slowly getting familiar with the government affairs, the Wei family also knows about the emperor's situation. It just depends on when you stop taking the medicine."
"My plan is early April." Wen Qingzhu didn't shy away from anything.
The people in the Wei family were all smart people and had no major conflicts with her, so she spoke up directly.
Even so, Mrs. Wei was still shocked.
But in recent times, Mrs. Wei has heard many things from Wei Ziying.
She knew that Wen Qingzhu really cared about the prince.
She thought of Wei Hui and said with some regret: "Concubine Wei should have stayed in the palace. Otherwise, there would be no need to trouble you to handle the affairs of the harem."
Wen Qingzhu's thoughts changed and he explained: "Concubine Wan is not dead yet. Concubine Li's death is related to her. Once Concubine Wan and the fifth prince are dealt with, when the prince ascends the throne and is selected and canonized at the same time, the harem will naturally be managed by someone."
Hearing what she said, Mrs. Wei was startled: "Is this your plan?"
Wen Qingzhu laughed: "Otherwise, what do you think my plan is?"
Mrs. Wei's eyes became complicated, and when Wen Qingzhu opened her eyes, she said that it was not easy for her to beat around the bush.
"To be honest, according to the wishes of the master and several uncles, the child Linlin is to be sent to the palace."
"Actually, that's what I planned too."
But Mrs. Wei shook her head: "But these days, Linlin has been resisting going to the palace to see the prince. Instead, she often pesters Mingxuan."
Wen Qingzhu's heart sank slightly, things were a bit difficult to handle.
Seeing that she understood, Mrs. Wei simply said: "There were no girls in the Wei family, but there is indeed Linlin in the second house. It would be fine if the prince had never been to Jinzhou before, but now Linlin has come into the sight of the famous family in the capital. , she can’t escape, so she can only become the queen.”
"Does Master Wei Shuang and his wife agree?" Wen Qingzhu had been in contact with Mr. Chai for some time.
Her original idea was to let Linlin marry a husband who was neither high nor low, so that they could live happily together in the future.
Mrs. Wei shook her head: "I don't agree."
"Then let's wait and see. The matter of canonizing the queen is not urgent." Wen Qingzhu didn't pay much attention to this kind of thing.
She herself is someone who doesn't want to give in, and Jiang Yuanhan is probably the same.
Mrs. Wei suddenly grabbed her hand: "Now it's not just about canonizing the queen, but the prince must have a woman by his side, even if it's just an ordinary maid! He... he can't delay it because of you!"
The last sentence was directly directed at Wen Qingzhu.
Wen Qingzhu was silent for a while and nodded: "This is true, but he is still young and it would not be good to know about personnel affairs too early."
"I know you are worried about him, but the problem now is that the person he likes is you!" Mrs. Wei didn't want to be so straightforward, but Wen Qingzhu didn't answer, which made her anxious.
Wen Qingzhu smiled and pushed Mrs. Wei's hand, reminding her: "Old madam, I have married Fu Lie! To the prince, I just regard him as my younger brother."
Mrs. Wei wanted to say something else, but there was movement in the inner room behind the partition.
Someone opened the door and came out, and as the wheels rolled, someone came over.
Wen Qingzhu turned around and saw that it was Yao'er who was pushing Wei Feng.
He looked at his mother: "Mom! You go down first, and I'll talk to Qingzhu."
"That's fine." Mrs. Wei actually knew that she shouldn't say that.
But Jiang Yuanhan's problem is already very urgent.
As soon as Mrs. Wei left, Wei Feng said immediately: "I actually agree with your idea, but my parents are also right. The prince is twelve years old this year, and he is already so smart and can take on big responsibilities, which is already great! In addition to Aunt Hui’s teachings, I think you have a greater role!”
"What do you mean?" Wen Qingzhu heard that he had other ideas.
Wei Feng stared at her: "The prince is very powerful. With you and Fu Lie here, he can't have any problems. It's okay that he is still the prince now, but once he ascends the throne, it will be taboo for you to interfere in the government affairs. Now that old fox Pei Yu He didn’t say anything explicitly, but when the prince really ascends the throne, he will dare to lead the civil servants to resign, just to expel you!”
"Pei Yu is really that powerful?" Wen Qingzhu knew Pei Yu's abilities, but he did not directly confront Pei Yu in his previous life.
It was always Jiang Yuancheng who confronted her head-on, and later even planned to make Pei Zhixuan the queen.
Obviously, this was a compromise they all made.
To be honest, Pei Zhixuan is almost ten years older than Jiang Yuanhan, so it is not impossible for her to become the queen.
As long as she was here, Pei Zhixuan's plan would definitely come to nothing.
"You girl! You are really fearless! You did promote poor families before, but only a few of them were able to catch the eye of the upper class. Let's talk about the civil and military officials in the capital. Count how many of them are... Just promoted?"
