Lu Wujiu noticed Zhao Han's gaze, and his eyes turned cold. That kind of gaze was disgusting!

"What are you doing standing here?" Lu Wujiu asked, trying to shoo him away.

But Zhao Han was not Zhao Yan. He had no shame: "My lord, it smells delicious. What are they making inside? Can I have a free meal? I've been traveling back and forth from Qi to Da Zhou so much that my legs have gotten thinner. If I don't eat something good, I'll age prematurely."

"..." Lu Wujiu pointed to the gate: "Military court-martial?"

Zhao Han walked out, and went to the outhouse before leaving.

Humans eat grains and cereals. Since he can't eat the food here, he has to leave something behind.

Stepping into the outhouse, I saw that the floor was paved with marble slabs, clean and flat. There was also a brush in the outhouse. Did the outhouse need to be cleaned so thoroughly?

Even the outhouses in the palace aren't this clean.

Besides the brush, there's also a bucket of water. After defecating or urinating, you can simply rinse the latrine with water to clean it thoroughly.

It's so clean.

Zhao Han stepped out of the courtyard and began working on the tasks at hand.

Lu Wujiu walked towards the study and saw the young emperor writing diligently all alone. He felt a surge of emotion. The young emperor used to be very mischievous and didn't study anything. Because he was the emperor, the tutors didn't dare to use force.

That person always taught me to be extremely annoying.

Now here, I can start working hard without anyone urging me.

He would even secretly work hard, which was completely different from his behavior in the State of Qi.

My gaze couldn't help but drift towards the kitchen; this woman really did have some tricks up her sleeve.

He opened the letter in his hand, carefully read through the contents, roughly understood the problem, wrote some comments, and instructed Zhao Han to send it out immediately.

He got up and looked at the young emperor; the child was also holding a folded document.

The questions listed above are very difficult!

Extremely difficult!

Methods for selecting talent.

The system of recommending people based on filial piety and integrity, which initially became the imperial examination system, was considered stable. However, after a century, it seems that the imperial examination system for recommending people has also developed its drawbacks.

People have begun to admire literature and look down on martial arts. A hundred years ago, people could kill enemies on horseback and bring peace to the world on foot, but now there is a trend of scholars causing chaos in politics.

Even a seasoned court official might not be able to come up with a solution to such a difficult problem.

Moreover, it's just a small child.

Looking at Changsheng's desk, there were many folded documents on it.

Open any of the fold-out pages, and you'll find a contextual scenario and a problem to be solved based on that scenario.

If the country you are in is Zhao, and it has Qin Hui and Yue Fei... and is surrounded by enemy countries like hawks and hounds, what should you do in such a situation?

The obvious choice is to kill Qin Hui and promote Yue Fei!

However, that country was dominated by scholars, and how could a country led by scholars possibly value military generals? The future of that country was destined to be tragic.

This method of teaching the young emperor, vividly depicting the personalities of treacherous officials on paper, would make it easy for him to connect the current divergent thinking to similar problems in the future. Even the most incompetent monarch would be alerted by this.

This is the first time I've seen this kind of teaching method.

As the ancients said: "Use a bronze mirror to straighten your clothes; use history as a mirror to understand the rise and fall of dynasties; use people as a mirror to understand your gains and losses."

People who are interested will read history books to understand the past and present, but this daily thinking question for children directly poses the question and asks children to think deeply and seek solutions, which will make the memory more solid.

"Who gave you these?" Lu Wujiu suppressed the raging storm in his heart and asked Xiao Changsheng.

“She’s my godmother,” Changsheng said, glancing at the questions in Lu Wujiu’s hand.

Those questions were extremely difficult, and there wasn't even a standard answer.

It's placed on the table so I can look at it every day, and bring out any unresolved problems to solve again.

With each passing day, he grows and matures a little more, and his thoughts may be different from before. He has to reflect and think every day about whether he was right or wrong, and whether his original intention was right or wrong.

Lu Wujiu has admired very few people in his life, but now he has one more.

She was just an ordinary peasant woman!

"Focus on your work," Lu Wujiu said.

He put down the folded document in his hand and looked outside.

The person in the kitchen was tending a fire, and steam was rising from it. She was sweating, and her clothes had turned black from being rubbed by the fire, but this disheveled and natural appearance was strangely beautiful.

Realizing his sudden thought, Lu Wujiu tapped himself on the head.

What is he thinking?

This is my wife's younger sister!

One should not have illicit thoughts.

"Lord Gu, are you hungry? What would you like to eat? I'll make something for you." Su Jiaoniang noticed the commotion outside and turned around to see Gu Xizhou standing outside with a complicated expression.

"I'm not hungry," Lu Wujiu shook his head.

Seeing that Su Jiaoniang was once again at ease busying herself in the kitchen.

He asked, "Did you give Changsheng those memorials and questions?"

"Does Lord Gu not want Changsheng to come into contact with these things?" Su Jiaoniang asked, her intentions tentative. In her understanding of history, once regents gained power, they would never relinquish it.

There will always be a rift between the new emperor and the regent.

If Gu Xizhou allows the young emperor to learn these things, then he truly treats the young emperor as the master of the Qi Kingdom.

If the young emperor is simply taught things that are useless for governing the country, then...

His motives need to be analyzed carefully.

Seeing that Gu Xizhou didn't stop her and even wanted to learn from her, Su Jiaoniang suddenly felt that Xiao Changsheng might not be very bright, but everyone he met was a benefactor.

They're all good people!

She was solely focused on his well-being!

This kind of luck is something you can't envy.

Seeing that Gu Xizhou was behaving well, and knowing that he didn't like spicy food, Su Jiaoniang picked up a small frying pan from home and started making soufflés, a snack suitable for all ages.

It tastes good and is sweet.

It's just a bit more complicated to make.

Ten years later, when the female protagonist from the original story comes back, she will bring out soufflé cakes and other Western-style desserts, and gain a large number of admirers by selling delicious food.

Now, she's following the path of the original female protagonist.

Can the adorable female lead continue to be adorable?

Will it still be able to attract pagodas in the future?

Su Jiaoniang found it amusing just thinking about it; stirring milk protein was hard work, but...

Su Jiaoniang glanced at the people in the courtyard and naturally handed over the egg whites and sugar from the kitchen: "Stir it, using a serpentine stirring motion, until these things change state."

"???" Lu Wujiu was rarely ordered around like this, so he didn't know how to refuse.

When I tried to refuse, the basin was already in my hand.

The affairs of the court have been dealt with, Changsheng's studies are progressing slowly, and Futu is taking a break, so he has nothing to do for the time being.

So I took a pair of chopsticks and started stirring.

It wasn't until the first time Lu Wujiu stirred the egg whites that he realized things in the kitchen were not so simple.
