Chapter 405 Changes in the situation
Chen Yan scratched his head, "Chang Qing doesn't seem to like serving in the court."
"Since he is no longer serving in the court, how can you promote the agricultural tools you have made? Haven't you already made a machine for sowing? Spring plowing is coming soon. If you don't do it now, will it be too late?"
"father!"
Chen Yan said happily, "How did you know that we made the farming tools for sowing? We tried it before, and the farming tools are really useful."
"Of course I know."
King Rui was somewhat pleased.
"The emperor named him the loyal king because he invented the thresher, which shortened the autumn harvest time. Now he has invented the seed drill. The people can use the saved time to reclaim more wasteland. I think in a few years, the grain output of Daliang will double."
“Isn’t this amazing?”
Chen Yan was proud of it.
"It's awesome!"
Prince Rui patted his son's shoulder and said, "So I say, since you are also interested in this, then follow Lu Changqing to learn and do it together."
"Won't my father think I'm not doing my job properly?"
Chen Yan was a little worried.
He heard that children from aristocratic families all had to take exams.
Lu Changqing originally wanted to take part in the imperial examination.
"What is a legitimate job? What is not a legitimate job? This is not just talk. We have to see what we have done for the people."
"That's what the new old man from the Lu family said!"
Chen Yan said happily.
The old man originally wanted to teach Lu Changqing his skills, but after seeing the farm tools we made, he gave up.
He said that although he had a lot of talent, he still couldn't make this kind of farm tool.
So he was willing to be friends with us. We taught him how to make farm tools, and he taught us how to check and balance.
After hearing this, King Rui smiled with relief and said, "Then you should learn from him."
It seems that the old fellow Fan Qingzhou still hasn't given up on Lu Changqing and is using this method to coax him.
But that's also a good thing.
If Chen Yan could learn one tenth of the skills from Fan Qingzhou, it would be enough for him to use for the rest of his life.
"Then father, when will you let Changqing go to the government office?"
Chen Yan asked.
Prince Rui pondered for a moment and said, "Let's wait until the Third Prince's matter is settled!"
……
Emperor Yongfeng was actually a ruthless person.
When he was sure that the third child could not stay, he planned everything.
First, Ning Yuer and her son in prison suddenly confessed that they had heard that Lu Tingen and the third prince were conspiring to collude with the Northern Frontier. As a result, the next day, the mother and son committed suicide by taking poison in prison.
After investigation, it was found that the poison that killed the mother and son came from Shunyitang. Huo Qiming was taken into the clan house without even a chance to defend himself.
After these two incidents, some people have seen which way the wind is blowing and fell silent, not daring to speak anymore. Others are afraid that the affairs of the Third Prince and Shun Medical Hall will implicate themselves, so they quickly distance themselves from them.
There are also some people who don't understand and are still pleading for the Third Prince, wanting the Emperor to release the Third Prince from the clan house first.
As a result, two days later, the minister who had spoken for the third prince was found to have occupied fertile farmland and abducted women. His house was searched and he was thrown into prison.
At this moment, everyone saw the situation clearly and knew that the Third Prince could no longer be saved.
There was a panic in the court and the country. Concubine Shu claimed to be sick and stayed in bed, not daring to step out of the yard for several days.
However, there was one person who was very happy. He specially cooked bird's nest and white fungus porridge, and gave one bowl to Emperor Yongfeng and one bowl to the Fourth Prince.
That is Concubine Qi.

I'm sorry for not making up for what I owe.
