The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

"Besides, if we use the people's money to do other things, if one day all the people want to withdraw their money and we can't provide it, wouldn't that be cheating them?"

"Ruyue! You and I also came up step by step from the bottom. I don't want to do such a thing, and I don't want to do such a thing."

Yu Ruyue looked at him with a smile, "Your concerns are not without reason! But don't worry, that won't happen."

"You guys go down and push the national debt issue forward. Remember, you must use your trusted people, or the money you collect won't be lost to those corrupt officials!"

"Once everything is done, we'll ask high-ranking officials, aristocratic families, and merchants who have dealings with the royal family to deposit their money. Be tough, we're not robbing them. They can withdraw their money anytime they want."

"Wait for these people to deposit their money, then bribe some beggars to promote the national debt. It's a way to make money, and then spread the news that these nobles bought the national debt."

"Tell people in the north that everyone in the south has bought it, and tell people in the south that everyone in the north has bought it. People always follow the herd mentality and want to take advantage of small bargains."

"So! Don't worry if no one comes to save it."

"By then, I'm worried you won't have enough manpower."

Seeing Yu Ruyue so confident, Shen Chou felt much more at ease.

The Minister of Revenue, on the other hand, had a look of being taught a lesson as he stared blankly at Yu Ruyue with eyes full of admiration. He didn't even notice that his God-killing Emperor had glared at him several times.

Yu Ruyue added, "I think the matter of opening the sea must be put on the agenda."

"And it would be best to send the military department to do it. On the one hand, they can become familiar with the local customs and get some information about the enemy countries. On the other hand, it can also help them adapt to the situation at sea in advance."

Shen Chou nodded and immediately went to summon the Minister of War.

The Minister of War came over and saw Yu Ruyue's eyes full of excitement and curiosity.

After so many years in the court, he knew his colleagues very well. Originally, everyone had their own responsibilities and normally they wouldn't have much interaction. But suddenly, for a while, the Minister of Revenue became extremely strange. Every day after court, he would ride his horse happily out of the city. Everyone was discussing behind his back, wondering if the old man had a mistress outside the city!

Even the noble ladies, when they saw the wife of the Minister of Revenue, began to ask indirect questions, wanting to know what kind of ability the concubine had. They had no intention of even trying to lure the Minister of Revenue to the court.

However, the wife of the Minister of Revenue shook her head mysteriously, with the smile on her face not diminished at all, and she did not look like her husband was about to be taken away.

Everyone was very puzzled at that time, and suddenly one day, the Minister of Rites and the Minister of Works also started to behave strangely.

Everyone was thinking, could it be that these old guys are also going to have a second spring?

As a result, not long after, these three old guys gathered together every day, whispering to each other behind everyone's backs, and even when everyone asked Shen Chou to choose a concubine, the three of them would jump out to stop him.

As a result, during that period, the other aristocratic families always made things difficult for these three ministers, but they still lived happily every day.

Soon everyone discovered something was wrong. The Ministry of Revenue had a new accounting method, the Ministry of Works was making some strange things every day, and the Ministry of Rites was printing many books and actively promoting compulsory education!

The three of them joined forces to attack the noble families, who were caught off guard.

It's like being enlightened by a god.

Just when everyone was extremely confused, suddenly the granddaughter of the Duke of Protectorate was chopped off by His Majesty, and her arm was carried out of the palace.

Everyone's spies then found out that the queen, who had just given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, was placed by the emperor in a farm in the suburbs.

The three colleagues were very excited to go see the Queen every day.

The Minister of War had been wondering when his turn would come! He was eagerly anticipating the occasion, desperately wanting to meet that special Empress.

As a result, after waiting for a long time, it was not their turn, and naturally it was not the turn of the other two ministers either. Originally, the three of them thought that this was a good thing, so that they would not be targeted by the aristocratic families.

But as time went by, the three departments had more and more new things, and they were doing very well. The emperor trusted him more and more, so he started to wonder if he had done something wrong, which was why he was not selected.

Now that he was finally brought here, he finally breathed a sigh of relief!

However, the Minister of Revenue kept calling the little girl "Master" and looked at her with nothing but admiration and flattery in his eyes. He suddenly felt that either he was crazy or this old man was crazy.

As a result, an hour later!

The Minister of War fell to his knees and kowtowed three times in admiration.

"Your Majesty! I am grateful for your guidance!"

"Don't worry! I will study carefully what you teach me and will not let you down."

"We will also train a separate army to specifically manage maritime trade, but..."

"That musket you mentioned... I wonder when it will be ready?"

"If we have something like this, it will only be a matter of time before our Daqian Kingdom unifies the Central Plains!"

Yu Ruyue smiled and took out several blueprints, handing them to Shen Chou. "The fire gun is quite difficult to make. Not only does it require a very high temperature for the fire, but it also requires very strict skills from the craftsmen. Otherwise, if you're not careful, it will explode and injure your own people. The blueprints I have show something called a repeating crossbow. It's more convenient than the crossbows we use now, and it's more lethal. It can fire nine crossbows at once."

"This saves the trouble of loading the crossbow."

“It’s perfect for our current situation.”

The Minister of War and the Minister of Revenue were so shocked by what they heard!

They felt that the person in front of them was not the Queen, but a fairy sent from heaven to help their Daqian Kingdom unify the Central Plains.

Shen Chou took the drawings in his hands and was extremely excited.

"Ruyue! Taking these things out doesn't affect you, right?"

Yu Ruyue shook her head. "Don't worry, it won't have any impact. But you must be careful not to spread these drawings. If they get to the enemy country, the war will be even more brutal."

"Oh right! I also have salt purification, improved textile machines, and methods for making glass and cement."

"Give it to someone you trust and have them study it carefully!"

Shen Chou took it and looked at it for a while, his hands shaking.

He always thought that as long as he worked hard, he could let Ruyue see the same prosperous world as hers. But now, he knows that this cannot be achieved by his efforts alone. It requires the efforts of generations of ancestors to become the world where Ruyue lives.

The Minister of Revenue and the Minister of War both craned their necks to see what kind of blueprint it was! What could have made the God-Killing Emperor, who was so overjoyed, so excited?
