Chapter 978 Queen Mother 18
As soon as Liu Cheng said this, he immediately echoed. Generally speaking, the kind of bosses will be like what kind of subordinates will be. Jiang Chan is a person who cannot tolerate sand in her eyes, so the people she promoted are basically this kind of personality.
Some people were filled with righteous indignation, and naturally some people were panicked. For example, Zhou Si, who was beaten by Jiang Chan, did not expect that the fire would actually burn him.
If he really investigated thoroughly, he would never be able to escape. Zhou Si's expression changed a few times, and he didn't know what strategies to deal with in his mind.
Jiang Chan sat firmly above and saw everyone's reaction.
After everyone discussed, Jiang Chan said, "Just do it according to Lord Liu's wishes. The northern affairs are urgent. Lord Liu is appointed as the imperial envoy, and the Shangfang sword is given to the northern official salt case. If the circumstances are serious, they will be escorted to Beijing for disposal."
"Yes, I will set out tomorrow."
Seeing the Queen Mother’s words, the ministers all shut up, and they could not find a reason to object.
After retiring from the court, Eunuch Xu went to the Ministry of Justice to send a message to Liu Cheng. He came over at Jiang Chan's order and asked Liu Cheng to go to the imperial study room. Jiang Chan had some words to tell Liu Cheng.
"Mr. Liu, things in the north are urgent, Ai's parents are short-speaking." Jiang Chan glanced at Liu Cheng who was standing in the lower head, and his tone was very serious.
"The forces in the north are complicated and must not be underestimated. Lord Liu's trip is extremely risky, so you must be careful in everything. Ai's family will let Ye Yunluo go north with you, aiming to protect your safety."
"Thank you for your concern!" Liu Cheng bowed down. Of course, he thought of these things. No matter what, if the Empress Dowager could send out people to protect him, he would be more at ease, at least his safety would be guaranteed.
After giving Liu Cheng some advice, Jiang Chan asked Eunuch Xu to go to Duke An Guo's house. Ye Yunqi went out to sea with the caravan, and Ye Yunluo had been training troops in the western suburbs. Now it is time for him to go out to shine and heat up.
After all, he is the child of the Ye family, and Duke An of the future will definitely be handed over to him and Ye Yunqi. Now Jiang Chan has also provided him with this opportunity, it depends on his performance in the north this time.
"Empress, this is the letter cut by Qinglong Guard." Eunuch Xu walked in lightly and delivered several letters to Jiang Chan's hand.
"Is it Zhou Si rumored it?" Jiang Chan asked casually without raising her head.
"The Empress is as wise as a torch. The pigeon flew out from Master Zhou's house. In addition, several other adults also sent people to deliver letters. Even the people and horses were stopped by the Qinglong Guards."
Jiang Chan curled her lips and smiled slightly: "Let's communicate with the Ministry of Justice and detain these people well, so as not to leak the news."
"I understand, let's do it now."
Eunuch Xu quietly walked out, and Qingzhu poured a cup of tea for Jiang Chan: "Empress, please take a break. Since you were in power, you have been so busy."
Jiang Chan put down his pen: "Ai's family also wants to rest, but the government is busy. Once you take a break, you may delay a lot of things. Just wait for Zhao Yi to grow up and be able to take over, at least fifteen or sixteen years."
Thinking of this, Jiang Chan sighed. The superiors also worked very hard. Looking bright and beautiful, there were actually many things that needed to be weighed and considered. Jiang Chan's mind never stopped, and she was always thinking about it.
Liu Cheng and Ye Yunluo left the capital quietly, as if two small drops of water were dripping into the hot oil pan. I don’t know what kind of storms they would cause in the northern counties.
Just as everyone was paying attention to northern affairs, the fleet that went to sea finally returned, which took one year and two months.
Jiang Chan was overjoyed. It was just that she was sleepy and she thought that the caravan should be back soon. Looking at the gold and silver that were moved from the merchant ship, as well as various spices, jewelry and stones, everyone was crazy.
Officials from the Ministry of Revenue were breathing rapidly. If these things were filled into the treasury...
Thinking of this scene, when they came into contact with Jiang Chan's smile, everyone dispelled the idea awkwardly.
The wealthy businessmen who went out to sea came down from the last two boats, and they all laughed and couldn't stop. They thought they would return home with a lot of loads when they went out to sea. Although they had to pay a large amount of tax to the Maritime Department when they returned from sea, this was a drop in the bucket compared to their profits.
Besides, their security is the responsibility of the guards, and they are willing to pay taxes.
Jiang Chan set up another private warehouse in the palace and went to sea to almost empty her small treasury. The Ministry of Revenue did not pay a penny, so they can only stare at these gold and silver.
When Jiang Chan thought of this, she felt very happy.
Looking at Ye Yunqi who was tanned, he had a sharp aura on his body, extremely sharp. Jiang Chan nodded with satisfaction: "I want to get out and get a lot of gains."
"I went out to sea for a while and passed by more than a dozen small countries. I saw different customs and customs, and I really gained a lot." Ye Yunqi was concise and took out a map from his arms.
"These are the routes I passed by, and I have drawn out the map." Without talking about the hardships of the journey, Ye Yunqi turned to his overseas experiences. Jiang Chan's close servants, Eunuch Xu, Qingzhu and others were all dazzled and confused.
If it weren't for Ye Yunqi's talk, they wouldn't have known that there was such a vast world outside.
"One day, I really want to go out and have a look." Eunuch Xu sighed, wandering around the palace all day long, trapped in this acre of three-point land. I didn't think it was before, but now I feel that my vision is particularly small.
Jiang Chan sighed: "The Ai family also wants to go out for a walk, and then take Eunuch Xu with you."
Eunuch Xu was flattered: "I hope that the slave will have that blessing and be with the Empress forever."
Put the precious land of the map drawn by Ye Yunqi, and come in with several officials who are skilled in farming who went out to sea. It can be said that this time I went out to sea to harvest a lot, and Jiang Chan's main purpose was to find seeds.
She brought all the potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, etc. she wanted. There were two large ships that placed these crop seeds. Not to mention various seasonings, such as peppers, green onions, garlic, etc.
"I'm sorry, please worry about these crops. I'll promote them around the capital first. If the results are remarkable, they will be promoted nationwide."
"I received the order."
Several officials looked at each other. If they did this matter well and really promoted these crops nationwide, it would be their political achievements. Not to mention that they will be remembered forever, at least they will be well-known, right?
When I think of this, everyone seems to have been injected with chicken blood, and they look particularly passionate.
