After binding the system, I became a national mystery person

Su Jinru walked into the inner room, took off her gorgeous clothes and put on light pajamas. Every step she took seemed so calm and unhurried.

She sat in front of the bronze mirror, letting the maid comb her long hair. Her face in the mirror was gentle.

Her brows revealed the aura of an empress who was majestic without even being angry, but at this moment, there was more of an indescribable peace and tranquility.

"It's finally over. Being an emperor is so tiring." She whispered to herself, as if summarizing her day.

Then she slowly closed her eyes and let the maid cover her with a soft quilt.

At that moment, all the troubles and worries seemed to settle down with the night, leaving only the peace and tranquility of the soul.

The next morning, at the court meeting.

"My dear ministers, I wonder how the construction of private schools is going now?" Su Jinru asked. These ministers are very idle and miss their harems all day long. She needs to find something for them to do.

"Your Majesty, schools have now been built in every state and county," said the old Prime Minister Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng was the prime minister of the previous dynasty and also the prince's tutor of the previous dynasty. He was very famous among scholars and very talented.

Su Jinru didn't hold grudges against me and said, "As long as you have the ability, I will use you." Therefore, Zhang Heng also respected and revered Su Jinru, the empress.

"Very good, Prime Minister Zhang, you have made an indelible contribution." Su Jinru nodded slightly, with a hint of appreciation in her eyes.

She is well aware that the popularization of education is crucial to the long-term development of the country, and Zhang Heng's efforts and contributions in this regard have undoubtedly laid a solid foundation for the country's future.

"However, even if the school is built, teachers and teaching materials are also indispensable." She changed the subject and glanced at the ministers.

"I intend to establish an Imperial College, specifically responsible for training and evaluating teachers. It will also compile unified teaching materials to ensure the quality and consistency of the teaching content. What are your opinions?"

The hall was silent for a moment, and all the ministers looked at each other, knowing that this move was of far-reaching significance, but also required careful consideration.

A moment later, Li Mufeng, the Minister of Rites, stepped out and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty has great foresight. This move is truly a great plan that benefits both the country and the people.

However, the establishment of the Imperial College requires the selection of talented individuals and the formulation of detailed regulations to ensure its orderly operation. I am willing to take on this responsibility and discuss the major plans with my colleagues."

Su Jinru was very relieved when she heard this and nodded, "Mr. Li, what you said makes sense. This matter will be jointly handled by you and Prime Minister Zhang.

We must uphold fairness and rigor, select individuals of both ability and integrity, and lay a solid foundation for the Imperial College."

Then, she turned to the Minister of Revenue, Zhao Mingyuan, and asked, "Does the national treasury have sufficient silver to support this massive project?"

Zhao Mingyuan stepped forward and respectfully replied, "Your Majesty, the national treasury revenue has grown steadily in recent years, and Your Majesty has implemented many reforms and opened up maritime trade.

By cutting redundant staff and reducing unnecessary expenditures, the treasury is now quite full. It is more than enough to support the expansion of the Imperial College and schools."

Su Jinru nodded and thought to herself.

She knew that a nation's prosperity lay not only in its vast territory and powerful military, but also in its flourishing culture and the wisdom of its people. Therefore, she spared no expense in promoting the vigorous development of education.

“Since that’s the case, let’s start preparing immediately.

At the same time, I also hope that you can go deep into the grassroots, understand the needs of the people, listen to the voices of students, and continuously optimize education policies to make them more closely related to people's lives and more in line with the requirements of the times."

Su Jinru's tone was gentle, but every word she spoke was powerful, making everyone in the hall feel her high regard and firm determination for education.

"Although the country is now enjoying peace and prosperity, we must not fall behind in technology, weaponry, and military training. Lord Li, how is your Ministry of Industry's research progressing?"

His Majesty's words revealed his profound concern and firm determination for the future of the country. Upon hearing this, Lord Li quickly stood up from his seat and bowed respectfully.

Then he replied in a deep voice, "Your Majesty is wise and wise. I, along with the entire Ministry of Works, will always bear in mind your teachings and will not dare to slack off in the slightest."

“Regarding technology and weapons research and development, our Ministry of Industry has made a number of breakthroughs in recent years.

First, in the manufacture of firearms, we have successfully improved the formula of gunpowder, which has significantly increased the range and power of muskets.

At the same time, new types of artillery were developed, whose accuracy and explosive power reached unprecedented levels.

These new weapons have been tested and installed by border defense forces, with excellent feedback. They have greatly enhanced our army's long-range strike capability."

Although Su Jinru has a lot of high-tech weapons information in his hands.

However, in this era of backward development, people need to conduct their own research. Things that are too advanced may not be good for the country.

Moving too fast is not conducive to social development.

"As for military training, I know full well that even the best weapons require excellent soldiers to wield them.

Therefore, we worked closely with the Ministry of War to jointly develop a more scientific and systematic training plan.

In addition to traditional martial arts training, we have also added training in tactics, strategy, teamwork, and psychological stress resistance.

We strive to cultivate a modern army that is not only physically strong, but also intelligent and resilient."

"Your Majesty, we are well aware that peace requires strength to protect it.

Therefore, whether it's scientific and technological research and development, weapons manufacturing, or military training, we will persevere and continuously make breakthroughs to ensure that the prestige of our great power cannot be violated."

After hearing this, Su Jinru looked relieved and nodded slightly.

He said: "What Li Aiqing said is very true. The prosperity of a country is not achieved in a day. It requires you and me, the monarch and the ministers, to work together to ensure that our country is forever stable and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

I hope you will continue to work hard and live up to my expectations."

After saying this, Su Jinru swept his eyes over the ministers in the hall and continued, "My dear ministers, peace is hard-won. We must continue to work hard. Only when we are strong will others not dare to invade us."

Upon hearing this, all the ministers in the hall stood up and responded in unison: "Your Majesty, we will follow your instructions and do our utmost to serve our country!"

For a moment, the hall was filled with sonorous oaths, demonstrating the country's firm confidence and infinite hope for the future.

After the court meeting ended, Su Jinru did not return to the palace immediately. Instead, he took several personal guards and went on a secret visit to a newly built school on the outskirts of the city.

She wanted to see the actual conditions of these schools with her own eyes, hear the children reading aloud, and feel their innocent passion for knowledge.

Walking along the country road, with the breeze blowing on her face and the fragrance of flowers filling her air, Su Jinru felt particularly relaxed.

She knew that she was doing something right and great - opening the door to knowledge for every child in this land.

Give them the opportunity to change their own destiny and sow the seeds of hope for the future of the country.
