There was no time for lunch, so Guo Luo and Mu Wangshu immediately began to look for materials and sort out useful information.
After a while, Fei Yi came over and said, "The Empress likes to read clear numerical reports the most. Write as few words-consuming nonsense as possible. If Lord Shangshu is reprimanded by the Empress, you will not feel comfortable."
Guo Luo stared down at the rice paper filled with words, then raised his head to look at Mu Wang Shu, "How did you write it?"
Mu Wangshu held the pen dripping with ink and looked at Guo Luo, speechless. How should he write?
Fei Yi saw the two people looking embarrassed. After thinking for a long time, he walked to his bookshelf in the corner and found a book of official minutes. "You can look at the format above for reference."
Guo Luo opened the official business minutes, which were full of data. There were also some line charts and bar charts that they couldn't understand.
They did understand the changes in data increases and decreases summarized below the chart.
Time was running out, so the two of them ignored the charts and began to summarize the situation in the New Taipei District over the past month.
Not even halfway through, Fei Yi came over and asked, "How's it going?"
Guo Luo and Mu Wangshu hurriedly handed over the things, "It's almost the same. Sir, let's see if there is anything we need to add."
Fei Yi glanced at it and sighed in his heart. He couldn't expect too much from these people. After all, they had never learned the Queen's tricks, so he had to study for a long time before he got the hang of it.
After reading it, the Minister of Industry and Industry said: "A few more words at the end. After working for a month, we must let the queen know our hard work."
Fei Yi was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Wei Zhengxu staring at him, he immediately said after reacting: "I will let them join me now."
Li Junche stared at the account book on the table and saw Wen Jinhe staring at it without raising his head. Man Qiu, who was sitting on a stool nearby, had a mountain of draft paper on the ground.
"A noble daughter from a noble family has been raised as a mistress since childhood. If she can be like Man Qiu, she may be able to help you a lot."
Wen Jinhe looked away from the account book, "Serving your husband, raising your children, and taking charge of the back house. These ideas are deeply rooted in the minds of the people in the world. It is not that easy to get them to work like men."
Li Junche: "Is that why Jinhe wants to open a girls' school?"
There are two private schools in New Taipei District. Wen Jinhe's plan is that one is a boys' school and the other is a girls' school.
Although she felt that there was no need to separate boys and girls, if that were the case, no girls would be enrolled in school.
"Arche, I hope that women in this world not only have the only way out of marriage, but also can live a good life on their own." Relying on others to survive is really a test of human nature.
Li Junche's eyes gradually darkened, and he took away the account book from Wen Jinhe's hand, "Have you ever regretted marrying me?"
Wen Jinhe looked at Li Junche's face. He didn't have the right to choose at the beginning, but...
She stretched out her hand to lift Li Junche's chin, rubbed his slightly rough skin with her thumb, and whispered, "It's the icing on the cake."
Li Junche's eyebrows moved slightly, he opened his mouth and bit down on Wen Jinhe's finger, licked and bit it lightly, "I am extremely happy."
"Reporting to the Emperor and Queen, Mr. Wei, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, is asking for an audience outside Changle Palace."
Wen Jinhe took out his fingers and wiped them on Li Junche's collar, "Let him in."
Li Junche lowered his eyes and looked at the darker color of the black collar, then opened the account book to the page Wen Jinhe had just read and put it back on the table.
Wei Zhengxu didn't expect that the emperor was there, "I'm here to see you, the emperor, the queen."
"Flat body."
"Get up."
He stood up, hesitating a little. Should this document be shown to the emperor first, or to the queen?
Just when he was in trouble, Man Dong came over and took the document from his hand and handed it to Wen Jinhe.
"The progress is not bad. I heard that the Ministry of Industry has appointed two new officials. We have enough manpower, so the progress needs to be improved."
Wei Zhengxu bowed his hands and bowed his head in response, "As a humble minister, I will do my best to handle all matters."
Two ministers were appointed, and a minister of the Ministry of Works was transferred. When the progress was made, the Queen's profile was even more oppressive than that of the Emperor. Some time ago, she said that the morning court should not be so early. Now are they being detained to sleep in the Ministry of Works?
As soon as Wei Zhengxu walked behind the gate of Changle Palace, he saw Fei Yi walking towards him and asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"
Fei Yi was also confused, "The emperor summoned his subordinates to come to Changle Palace."
Another chamberlain came out and said, "Master Fei."
Fei Yi followed immediately.
Wei Zhengxu thought about it and simply waited in the carriage after leaving the palace. The emperor didn't say anything when he saw him just now. Fei Yi was his subordinate, why did he call him here?
"I want you to build important roads in various places." Whether the road is good or not has a great relationship with the development of the country.
Li Junche thought about it for several days and decided to build the road first. The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs would work together to do it, and the silver would come out of the treasury.
Fei Yi didn't know how much money the treasury had now, but it must be very little. There wouldn't be enough money to repair the entire world's important roads. Isn't the Emperor making things difficult for others?
When he left Changle Palace, he was in a daze. When he walked out of the palace gate, he didn't even see the servants coming up to him. He wanted to take him back to the Ministry of Works.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" The servant quickly supported the person.
Fei Yi stopped, still wandering in his mind.
When Wei Zhengxu saw someone coming out, he asked the driver to follow him, "Come up."
Fei Yi raised his head and saw that it was Wei Zhengxu. His face immediately fell. He got into the carriage with drooped ears and said, "Sir, I am afraid that I will retire and return to my hometown."
Wei Zhengxu was confused when he heard that Fei Yi had just made great contributions to Nancheng. He was going to be in charge after he retired. Now he told him that he was going to retire and return to his hometown. How old was he? "Have you angered the emperor?"
The Queen is also present in Changle Palace. Even if Fei Yi angers the Emperor, the Queen will not dissuade him.
Nangong Shuo had just left. It would not be a good thing if Fei Yi was gone and his left and right hands were severed.
Fei Yi leaned against the car wall and shook his head, "No, but the emperor gave me an impossible task."
"What's up?"
Fei Yi took out the picture from his sleeve and handed it to Wei Zhengxu, "The emperor ordered the officials and the Minister of Household Affairs to jointly build the road and get money from the treasury."
Wei Zhengxu opened the road map. It was really a magnificent masterpiece. If it were to be built, it would not be completed in five or ten years.
"Does the treasury have any money?"
Fei Yi couldn't help wiping away tears and wailed, "Definitely not."
In Changle Palace, Wen Jinhe looked at Li Junche and asked, "Have you been close to King Heng recently, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance?"
Li Junche denied, "After Li Yuheng was diagnosed with illness by the imperial physician, he recruited famous doctors from all over the world to treat his illness all day long. He took medicine three times a day and no longer cared about the affairs of the court."
"Then you still let You Zhicheng and Fei Yi build roads. You Zhicheng knows best how much money there is in the national treasury. He can't get the money to build roads within a hundred miles of the capital, let alone build roads in the whole world."
Wen Jinhe didn't say anything when Li Junche ordered Fei Yi just now. She thought it was You Zhicheng, the Minister of Household Affairs, who had offended Li Junche, so she deliberately asked Fei Yi to embarrass him.
