Chapter 260: About the Development of the Fiefdom (18)
Shi Lidie has a clear understanding of her own positioning——
She grew up in modern society, and the freedom and equality of modern society are engraved in her bones, so she cannot agree with the feudal society's governing philosophy from the bottom of her heart.
However, the environment she is in requires her to integrate into this era.
She can occasionally go beyond the norm and come up with something that is ahead of the times, but she can never be out of touch with the times, just as she cannot immediately transform an agricultural society into the steam age.
Therefore, based on these reasons, she had no desire to rebel and become emperor, or to divide the country and rule.
She felt that being a favored and trusted princess was already great.
In this way, she doesn't need to worry about such a big country. The feudal society has its own set of rules, and she just tries to make the people live better under that set of big rules.
She improved agricultural conditions, built factories, created jobs, and planned commercial areas in order to develop the economy; she built orphanages, nursing homes, and public study rooms in order to show her humanitarian concern.
Everything she came up with is achievable in this era.
Most things can be assembled with a small amount of iron and most of the wood. Although the quality is far inferior to the mechanized production in modern society, it has greatly improved the efficiency compared to the pure manual labor in the agricultural society.
Shi Lidie's plan was not so outrageous as to build an engine or repair a car or train.
It is also because of this that she is extremely loyal to the emperor.
So the emperor reciprocated the favor and gave full trust to Shi Lidie. After all, in the two years when he was not in the fiefdom, Shi Lidie wrote a memorial every half a month, writing about everything in detail. Basically, she did not hide anything she wanted to do from the court.
Shi Lidie was certain that as long as she and the emperor continued to maintain this loyalty and trust, she would definitely live better and better in this era, and would be able to better help the people of this era and improve their lives.
Three days later, the emperor set out with his court officials, preparing to leave his fiefdom.
When it was time to leave, the young prince Gu Xiuqi refused to leave. He held onto Shi Lidie's legs and refused to let go:
"Father, Mother, I can't bear to leave my sister, and I can't bear to leave the delicious food and fun things here. Can I not leave? I want to stay here for a while before returning to the capital. Is that okay?"
The queen frowned and advised:
"Qi'er, be good. Let's go back this time and come back to play next time if we have a chance."
"Mother, you lied. Before my sister left the capital, you said you would bring me to see her, but it's been two years." The little prince said, "Will it take two years for me to come and play next time?"
The emperor stared at Gu Xiuqi's unhappy face and asked:
"Do you really want to stay here?"
"Yes!" Gu Xiuqi nodded vigorously. "It's much more fun here than in the palace! I'm the only child in the palace, and I can't find a playmate of the same age. Those eunuchs don't know anything and can only coax me. But it's different here. There are schools here, and there are many boys who are about my age. They can also read and write, and practice martial arts. I want to study with them!"
"Then you can stay." The emperor said lightly.
"Your Majesty! No!" The Queen was a little anxious. "Qi'er is the Crown Prince. How can we let him neglect his studies for fun?"
"I didn't say to let him neglect his studies." The emperor smiled, and then asked Gu Xiuqi, "I can let you stay here, but you have to agree to one condition. You must complete the tasks assigned to you by the Grand Tutor and the knowledge he teaches you meticulously. Every three days, I will ask your sister to write a memorial to report your situation to me. Do you hear me?"
Gu Xiuqi suddenly became excited:
"Yes! I obey your order! I will go to school and ask the tutor to teach there. I will finish my schoolwork during the day and the homework assigned by the tutor at night!"
"The school can have two days off every five days, and I can also play with my friends. That's great!"
Shi Lidie did not expect that the emperor and the prince, father and son, would so casually decide that the prince should stay and transfer him to another school.
And the little prince Gu Xiuqi is just seven years old.
He went from one-on-one tutoring by a famous teacher to attending large classes at school, and he was very happy about it.
However, this is also good, Shi Lidie thought, and then said:
"In fact, this is not without benefits to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"When the tutor teaches, he imparts knowledge and learning to His Highness from an adult's perspective. He passively accepts most of the time and occasionally thinks about it, but due to his age and condition, he is unable to verify it himself."
"But in school, there are many discussions among peers. The collision of thoughts and language can often lead to new sparks. Maybe the Crown Prince's thinking can be further expanded."
"More importantly, most of those children will take the imperial examination in the future. Ten or twenty years later, they will become officials in the imperial court. By then, they will become your highness's right-hand men and loyal ministers."
"It would not be a bad idea to let Your Highness get to know him from now on and get to know his character."
So the emperor ordered that Qin Taifu and the prince stay together.
Before leaving, the Queen, although reluctant, held Shi Lidie's hand and said:
"You have always been a steady person. I leave Qi'er to you."
"Don't worry, mother. I will take good care of Qi'er and protect him. I will make sure that when he returns, he is safe and sound, without a single hair missing." Shi Lidie said with a smile.
After saying goodbye, everyone left.
This team of 200 people came in disguise and blended in with the tourists in batches, but they left with great fanfare and the emperor's guard of honor, just to get back to the capital as quickly as possible.
After the emperor and his companions left, Shi Lidie took Gu Xiuqi to complete the admission procedures, and according to his age, he was made a transfer student.
The tutor also rescheduled classes for Gu Xiuqi based on the school's schedule. Some of the content taught in school was overlapping with what he planned to teach, so some things could be omitted.
After all, this is the crown prince, the future emperor of the Dayin Dynasty, so he has to be more attentive.
After finishing the task, Shi Lidie brought Gu Xiuqi back to the princess's residence, only to find Chen Zhao waiting for her in the hall.
She had Gu Xiuqi taken away, then went to see Chen Zhao and asked:
"How come Master Chen has time to come to my place today?"
"Before His Majesty left, he left a task for us two," said Chen Zhao.
"What mission?" Shi Lidie was curious. "What mission is so mysterious that you need to tell me?"
"I heard that you once advised him that there was rubber in the Nanyi region, and he wanted to conquer Nanyi. Since you and I have experience lurking undercover in enemy countries, His Majesty wants to ask if we can resume our old business." Chen Zhao replied.
Shi Lidie:……??? what???
