Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

"I know."

There seemed to be thousands of twinkling stars in the prince's eyes, full of ambition.

"Okay, go do it."

After training and tempering through setbacks, the prince has acquired the ability to stand on his own.

The next thing to do is to accumulate experience.

Qin Ming had no dissatisfaction with this heir.

"Yes!"

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the young man turned around and left in high spirits.

Looking at his departing back, Qin Ming seemed to see his younger self in him.

Pushing open the door, a cool breeze blew in. Looking up at the endless sky, he suddenly became dazed.

Years have passed, but the scene of breaking through the palace gate and escaping from the capital seems still vivid in my mind.

"Arrange someone. I want to go for a walk down there these few days."

Qin Ming turned around and spoke to Ying Qi.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Ying Qi responded and began to prepare.

The next morning, an extremely simple carriage drove out from the side door of the palace.

There were only two people in the carriage, Qin Ming and Ying Qi who was driving.

Qin Ming didn't bring anyone with him when he left the palace this time, only this personal guard.

It's not that he didn't want to bring them, but many of the generals who had joined him in entering the capital from Lingnan had begun to rush to all directions as the territory of the Daqian Dynasty expanded.

Now they have basically become generals in charge of a region.

There is nothing we can do about it. After all, internal and external troubles are growing every day.

If there is no one you can trust, sitting in every direction of the empire.

It will also be difficult for Qin Ming to govern this country well.

It is precisely because of this that all the brothers who fought with him are now far away from him.

Even though there are now railways in Daqian, it is still not easy for Qin Ming to see them.

The carriage soon arrived outside the imperial city.

The streets of the capital are bustling with people.

The road here has been paved with cement, and there are also some electric wires connecting various factories on the street.

The headquarters of shops from all over the country are all lined up on the streets.

Goods arriving in the capital from all over the country and even overseas are displayed on the streets.

In previous years, there might be many thieves who would look for opportunities to steal it and exchange it for money.

But now even if it is laid out on the street, no one will touch it.

In addition, there is a group of old men basking in the sun.

They were the first group of people to benefit from Qin Ming's pension system.

Most of these people are officers and soldiers who retired from the battlefield in previous years. Even if they are no longer able to work, as long as they are alive, the court will give them three taels of silver every month.

If it had happened a few years ago, the imperial court would have been absolutely unable to bear this burden.

But now the court of the Daqian Dynasty has no need to worry about finances.

Ever since Qin Ming opened up the maritime countries, the Daqian Dynasty has exported its products overseas with its powerful technical means.

While gaining wealth, he also invested most of the silver into technological innovation in the workshop.

This maintains a virtuous cycle.

Although a large part of it has already entered the workshop to supply research expenses.

Only a small portion went into the kingdom's fiscal revenue, but even so, it made them wealthy.

Thus having the ability to guarantee the expenses of these people.

Of course, in addition to them, there are many other areas of public expenditure, and Qin Ming has taken care of them all.

Qin Ming's carriage arrived at a street corner, and Ying Qi suddenly heard Qin Ming speak.

The sound of children reading could be heard from the imperial school.

Qin Ming slowly raised his head and looked towards the school at the end of the street.

This school was one of the thousands of schools established by the imperial court throughout the dynasty.

Here you only need to spend a small amount of money to let your descendants study here for many years.

You can choose a variety of majors to study.

This way they won't have any other troubles.

Sometimes some people find out during the process of studying that they are not cut out for it.

Their intelligence and talents are actually buried.

But if you learn something other than studying, such as leading troops in battle or making various mechanisms, and conducting scientific research.

They are very interested in these things.

Qin Ming's schools train different groups of people in batches, thus bringing a large number of talents to the entire kingdom.

"Your Majesty, where are we going?"

Seeing Qin Ming thinking as he walked, Ying Qi finally couldn't help but interrupt him.

After leaving the palace, he walked aimlessly on the street. Until now, Qin Ming had not told him where he was going.

"Let's go all the way south. There are some people I want to see."

Qin Ming spoke slowly, a look of reminiscence appearing on his face.

Ying Qi nodded.

The carriage traveled south and soon left the capital and arrived at the Daqian Imperial Mausoleum.

"His Majesty?!"

Seeing Qin Ming personally coming to the imperial mausoleum, the soldiers in charge of guarding the mausoleum suddenly widened their eyes. Qin Ming's trip was very important, and it would involve security guards from various departments and notify officials along the way to receive him. But now Qin Ming did not notify anyone and actually ran here directly, which also surprised several soldiers present. Qin Ming did not react much. After glancing at them, he said lightly:

"Don't be surprised, let's go, I'll take a look here myself."

After waving his hand to disperse them, Qin Ming walked into the imperial mausoleum.

Qin Ming stood in front of the late emperor's seat, and it was very quiet here.

"Father, you never imagined that one day I would be able to stand in this position and even manage this country so well."

"It's a pity that you can't see it. It's been too long, and no matter how much resentment there is, it no longer exists."

He recalled the scene when he first came to the capital and forced their entire family to retreat.

Qin Ming couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

However, no matter how great the hatred was at the time, it has disappeared after so many years. The people and officials have all been replaced, and no one even remembers what happened back then.

All we know is that the current emperor has been committed to people's livelihood since he ascended the throne, helping the people earn a lot of money, and improving a lot of infrastructure and the court system.

Eventually pushed the dynasty into a new level.

Standing in the still quiet imperial mausoleum, Qin Ming was silent for a long time.

In the end, all the emotions turned into a slight sigh, and he turned and left.

The carriage continued south.

Before he knew it, he arrived at a place that Qin Ming was very familiar with.
