Chapter 36

"Private soldiers? You recruited all those killers?" Emperor Zhaohe's eyes widened, a little in disbelief.

Wei Chenrui nodded: "That's right, but it's only a part of the collection that still has a conscience, and those who don't have a conscience will naturally be killed."

"Not only that, but I also took over the lair of the killer organization, and it was a good place to train and hide soldiers for nothing."

"Hmph!" Emperor Zhaohe snorted coldly, "It's a good thing he did!"

"He shouldn't be so stupid as to come forward by himself. He must have asked someone else to come forward. Even if he investigates, he will investigate a scapegoat. It still needs a long-term plan."

After Emperor Zhaohe's reminder, Wei Chenrui knew that although he had wiped out the Blood Valley, there were still remnants of crimes, and those evidences of buying murders were also in the hands of remnants.

Sighing: "It's true, we can't just ransack the house for no reason to see how much money his family has."

Emperor Zhaohe also sighed: "Okay, write it down first. When you are free, anger him again. If you can't find evidence, try to anger him to death."

Wei Chenrui was happy: "Haha, this is a good way, I have to think about how to anger him!"

Emperor Zhaohe raised the answer sheet in his hand: "I'll think about it later, let's think about how to solve the problems reported by the students!"

"Only you can worry about the research and development of agricultural tools!"

With Zhaoguo's current level of technology and production technology, it is impossible to make a tractor that can be said to be a fantasy.

Tractors can't be researched, but agencies can research and research. Using the law of energy conservation of gears and yo-yos, it should be feasible to develop a labor-saving machine for plowing and threshing.

However, Wei Chenrui alone cannot accomplish this, and she doesn't have that much time.

Therefore, Wei Chenrui thought for a while and said, "I have some ideas for this thing, but it is not perfect. It would be time-consuming to study it by myself, and I still have a lot of other chores, so I can't devote myself to it." in a study."

"So, I want to pass on this idea and let other skilled craftsmen realize it."

Emperor Zhaohe nodded: "That's right, you are the crown prince now, and you still have to participate in political affairs. You really don't have much time to study it. It's good to pass it on."

"However, it is better to keep this skill in the hands of the royal family!"

Wei Chenrui has no objection to this point. Once something like this that benefits the people is commercialized, it will become a burden for the common people.

"This is natural. However, there is no way to make new farm tools in the short term, but we can find a way to increase some farm cattle and reduce the price of farm cattle."

"What's your plan?" Although Emperor Zhaohe had an easy-going temperament and loved money a little, he also cared for the people. Knowing that Wei Chenrui had a solution, he was naturally curious.

"This, I won't disclose it for now, as long as you hand over the tax collection to me, I can solve this problem."

Many people's interests were involved in this, and Wei Chenrui was worried that he would be opposed by ministers if he spoke out, so he didn't want to tell Emperor Zhaohe.

Emperor Zhaohe had no objection to handing over the tax collection to Wei Chenrui: "Pei Qianhuo is still in office, let him overtake him and give you full responsibility for the tax collection. I'm afraid the ministers will not agree!"

Wei Chenrui blinked mischievously: "It's not easy to deal with, if you piss him off again, let him recuperate at home!"

Although this idea is bad, it is a very good idea. Emperor Zhaohe laughed: "Haha, let's do it like this!"

Wei Chenrui, who had made up his mind, returned to the East Palace and ordered Huixin to make arrangements. The electric fan would never be sold to Pei Qianhuo, and anyone who bought it would be blacklisted and refused to sell it.

Whoever sells it to him will stop all cooperation and destroy all batteries and engines.

Huixin naturally did not dare to delay Wei Chenrui's order, and sent the news out quickly.

All the ministers who received the news knew Wei Chenrui's narrow-mindedness, and also knew that if she said it, she would definitely do it.

According to the propaganda of the students, electric fans should not be too easy to sell, no one would think that the money is too much, so naturally follow Wei Chenrui's request.

Pei Qianhuo seemed to have guessed that Wei Chenrui would target him like this, but he wasn't angry at all, he just looked at Wei Chenrui's eyes, which made him even more sinister.

Seeing that this trick didn't work, Wei Chenrui could only think of other ways. After all, there is still some time before the autumn harvest, and there is no need to collect taxes for the time being, so it can be delayed.

At this time, the dozens of Xie Yuan who had been in Xi'an Hutong for a long time couldn't stay any longer, and dragged Xiao Lizi to send a message to Wei Chenrui, asking why they could go out.

Only now did Wei Chenrui remember that he forgot about it.

Therefore, in the early morning of the next day, Wei Chenrui took part in Pei Qianhuo's book, saying that he had neglected his duties, leading to a serious incident of imperial examination fraud, and even ordered his servants to assassinate students who knew it.

Pei Qianhuo naturally refused to admit it, and asked Wei Chenrui to produce evidence.

Wei Chenrui naturally has evidence, but it's not suitable to present it in the court: "Father, there are a lot of students involved in the case, and the servant who murdered was also executed on the spot by the guards of the minister, so it is not suitable to present it."

Wei Chenrui didn't inform Emperor Zhaohe about this matter, and Emperor Zhaohe didn't know about it, so he was naturally very angry when he heard that: "It's really unreasonable, Zhuo Zhaoqing, this matter should be handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial."

"I obey the order!" Zhuo Zhaoqing was a member of Emperor Zhaohe, so naturally he would not shirk.

As early as when Wei Chenrui protected the Jie Yuans, Pei Qianhuo had already found a substitute for the dead ghost, so he was naturally not afraid.

Zhuo Zhaoqing's actions were still very fast, and he asked Wei Chenrui to bring the witnesses and material evidence to the Ministry of Punishment.

Wei Chenrui didn't want to procrastinate any longer, he didn't delay for a moment, didn't change his court clothes, and went directly to Xi'an Hutong.

The students breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that they were going to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Seeing this, Wei Chenrui teased and said, "Why, are the servants not serving you well?"

Hearing what Wei Chenrui said, the students who had just sent them down brought them up again. They were afraid of making Wei Chenrui angry, so they didn't know what to say for a while.

Others dare not say anything, but Yang Yuanqi has no scruples: "No matter how thoughtful you are, you can't stay at home every day!"

Wei Chenrui nodded: "That's right. I can't go anywhere every day. I can only read books in the room and recite poems. After a long time, I will get tired of it. I understand!"

Seeing that Wei Chenrui was not angry, the students relaxed again.

Deng Huawu, who was more courageous, also followed suit: "No, I don't need to read or copy books now, and suddenly I don't have to do anything when I'm free. I'm really not used to it!"

Wei Chenrui understood very well: "I'm also to blame for this matter. Once there are too many things, I will forget about this matter and make you wait for so many days."

"Now, pack up your things and go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to testify."

"You can go back to where you live after the Ministry of Punishment's verdict comes down."
