Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Laying the electrical wires was just one of Qin Ming's arrangements.

As lights gradually appeared on the streets, many people discovered something strange.

An extremely tall pavilion was actually built in the imperial city.

"what is that?"

Many passers-by were very surprised.

This attic can be seen even from outside the palace.

The three big characters "Zhaixing Tower" are written on the gilded plaque above.

As the construction of the building was completed, people went up there to work every day.

According to some people who came back from other places, Qin Ming spent three million taels of silver to build some such buildings in various places.

This attic is extremely long and narrow and doesn't look like it is suitable for living.

But there are people running up and down every day.

Soon, people in the capital discovered another thing.

"Look, the newspapers have actually started predicting the weather for the next two days!"

"Wind direction, rain or shine!"

"Is this accurate?"

They all had some doubts in their hearts.

Logically speaking, there are people who can predict the weather everywhere.

But the weather is different in different places.

To predict the weather in various places on a large scale, one must be a god.

Just at this moment, someone who was chatting in a teahouse in the capital suddenly slapped his forehead and said a possibility.

"Did Your Majesty build those tall buildings just to observe the stars and predict the weather?!"

"You just realized it. I've read it in the newspaper these past few days. The weather forecast is quite accurate. Although there are some errors, it's good enough!"

"Oh my God!"

"Then the newspaper said it would rain this afternoon, so I don't have to water the fields tomorrow!"

"Go home and collect your clothes. It's going to rain soon!"

Everyone shouted and prepared to leave.

When seeing this scene, some people who had just read the newspaper were unwilling to believe that the court could do such a miraculous thing.

So they chose not to take any action and wait and see whether the court's prediction was accurate.

Soon, the sky turned dark at noon.

As thunder rumbled, bean-sized raindrops began to pour down.

The teahouse was filled with people taking shelter from the rain.

Looking back at the newspaper, everyone was shocked.

"From now on, we can find out the weather by just buying a newspaper!"

"Your Majesty, this is well done!"

Everyone praised it.

The same situation as in teahouses occurred not only in the capital, but also in cities and villages across Daqian.

In the imperial city, Qin Ming sat in the imperial study and nodded slowly while listening to Song Dingsheng's report.

Then he pointed to the forecast in the newspaper and said:

"Don't call it a weather forecast anymore, call it a forecast."

"Oh?"

Song Dingsheng's eyes rolled and he immediately understood.

"Your Majesty is still wise!"

The prediction sounds a bit strange, as if it is difficult to predict tomorrow's situation, so fewer people may believe it.

But if it is a forecast, it is different.

It feels like they already know tomorrow's weather, so they report it to everyone in advance.

Just one word makes such a big difference.

Song Dingsheng was amazed in his heart, Qin Ming's skills were indeed very high.

"Isn't the water conservancy project still under construction? Tell Wu Shizhong to get the Ministry of Works involved and build a few hydropower stations."

"Your Majesty, that thing is very expensive... I don't think the budget will allow for it."

When Song Dingsheng heard this, he hesitated.

Qin Ming waved his hand slowly and said:

"It doesn't matter. You can spend as much money as you want. This is a major project for Fukuzawa's future generations."

The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants took the shade.

Qin Ming's construction in various places has cost a huge amount of money at the moment, but these projects will continue to be effective for dozens or hundreds of years to come.

This is the merit that will be passed down to future generations.

"I see."

As Song Dingsheng left, Chang Baishan came in with a cup of tea and said:

"Your Majesty, construction work is being arranged everywhere recently, and you're going to be bored again."

As an emperor, Qin Ming basically stayed in the capital unless he went out to participate in a war.

But after staying in the capital for a long time, the daily government affairs became quite boring.

That's why he wanted to advance the pace of the new era and implement all the major power projects.

For those who are energetic, although these things are complicated, they can all be solved after spending some time.

There was nothing important to do, and life gradually returned to normal.

Chang Baishan came in to chat with him because he saw that Qin Ming was a little agitated.

"Yeah, just waiting for the baby to be born."

Qin Ming sighed. Ever since Guan Yue became pregnant, he had been staying in the palace with her.

Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, many things happened inside and outside Daqian.

And the time for him and Guan Yue's child to be born will come in a few months.

When he thought of this, he became restless.

"How about taking advantage of this opportunity to go to Yan Dynasty and fight a battle?"

Chang Baishan rubbed his hands and spoke quickly.

He was already impatient when he saw Ye Shoujiang and Heifu leaving.

Speaking of the brothers who went to the battlefield together, those who should lead the troops led the troops, and those who should lead the construction went to Daqian to build.

Only Chang Baishan was promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards.

Stayed in the palace with Qin Ming all day.

Qin Ming shook his head and said:

"I've thought about this before, but it's not as simple as you think."

"Ultimately, the struggle between Yan Zheng and Yan Ziqiong is a conflict within the Yan Dynasty. If I were to go there, it would escalate into a confrontation between the Yan Dynasty and Daqian."

"If it weren't for this, I would have passed by long ago."

Qin Ming really wanted to fight this battle himself.

But considering his own identity, he could only arrange for Ye Shoujiang and Heifu to help first.

"That makes sense, alas..."

Seeing that Qin Ming was unwilling to go, Chang Baishan had no choice but to leave the imperial study and take his men to wander around the palace.

Today is the time for the secret guards to return to the capital as usual and report the situation in various places to Qin Ming.

Soon, Liu Yueli found Changbaishan and asked for a pass.

"Why are you so free today? Can't you just ask someone down there to come look for you?"

"I have something important to report, and I must speak to His Majesty in person."

Liu Yueli sighed, her face looking strange.

"What's the big deal? Tell me about it."

"I need to tell His Majesty about this first, so don't ask."

Liu Yueli shook her head with a cold face and kept her mouth shut.

"Okay, let's go."

Chang Baishan saw no chance, so he followed with a smile.

He really couldn't get the information in advance.

But as the first guard of the palace beside Qin Ming, he is still qualified to follow and listen.

Liu Yueli rolled her eyes and whispered:

"You can listen to this matter, but don't spread it outside."

"okay."

Soon, the two arrived at the imperial study.

Seeing Chang Baishan return with another Liuyue Pear, Qin Ming asked curiously:

"Why are you two getting together?"

"Your Majesty, she said the secret guards had something important to report. I was bored, so I came to see what was going on."

"Oh? Go ahead."

Qin Ming looked at Liu Yueli.

As soon as the other party opened his mouth, he was so shocked that he stood up!

"Your Majesty... a few days ago, we received news from overseas secret guards that according to their investigation, Princess Tiance seems to be pregnant."
