The deans of each college were busy for a long time, and finally the affairs of the academy were put on track, and the students gradually adapted to the regular study life.
Wang Jian, Xia Wuqie, Mo Ju and others did not have much to do, so they only needed to concentrate on teaching students and handling academic affairs.
But it was hard for Li Si, the prime minister. Not only did he have to deal with a lot of government affairs, but he also had to be distracted by managing the affairs of the law school.
He looked haggard these days, which made Ying Zheng express his concern.
"Li Qing, even though you are busy with work, you should take care of your health."
"May I send the imperial physician to examine you?"
Li Si was flattered by the emperor's sudden concern, and he quickly declined the offer.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, but I am just a little tired."
"Well, I'm glad you're alright, my dear. I have something to announce today."
Ying Zheng handed yesterday's simplified Chinese manuscript to Zhao Gao and asked him to circulate it to all officials.
Li Si took the paper and looked at the neat and simple handwriting, his face becoming a little excited.
He was good at calligraphy. After the unification of the Qin Dynasty, the country had complicated characters and different styles of writing, so he proposed the unified writing system.
After obtaining the support of His Majesty, he invented the small seal script and promoted it throughout the country.
But now, the small seal script that he was proud of was not as concise and easy to understand as this font, but Li Si did not feel angry, but very happy instead.
"Your Majesty, what is this font called? It's really concise!"
"It's so square, and it writes smoothly."
“Although it is not as elegant and graceful as the small seal script, it is beneficial for government affairs.”
"If this is extended to all counties, public service efficiency will surely be significantly improved."
All the officials read it carefully and praised it highly.
Ying Zheng observed the situation below and saw that they had no objection, then he spoke lightly.
"This is the simplified Chinese character. It will replace the small seal script and will be used throughout the country from now on."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Unsurprisingly, the decree to promote simplified characters was successfully issued, and the short era of small seal characters came to an end.
At the same time, Chu Yuening, who was teaching her child to read, suddenly received a system report.
"Congratulations to the host for successfully promoting simplified Chinese characters and advancing the cultural progress of Daqin. I will reward you with 2000 points of merit."
"Xiao Yiyi, don't be so sudden next time and scare me."
"Hey, I didn't mean it~"
"Huh? What is this panda dumpling?"
Chu Yuening stared at the black and white ball rolling on the light screen, feeling a little confused. It seemed that there hadn't been such a thing before?
"It's the system! I spent a lot of merit to buy this limited edition skin. It looks great, doesn't it~"
"Yeah, very cute, but it's a pity I can't rub it."
Who doesn’t want a round and furry panda dumpling?
In modern times, Chu Yuening likes to watch some panda videos. Their cute appearance is so cute that it makes people's hearts tremble.
She was a little itchy, so she used a brush to sketch the shape of a panda on paper, which was simple and vivid.
"Mom, what is this?"
Ying Zhao was in a period of strong curiosity, and he couldn't help asking questions when looking at the cute animals on the paper.
"Well, this is a ferruginous beast. Isn't it cute~"
Chu Yuening patiently gave her baby some scientific knowledge.
In ancient times, the panda was called the iron-eating beast. It was said to be the mount of Chiyou and was extremely ferocious.
"Cute, Zhao Zhao wants it~"
Ying Zhao stared at his mother expectantly with his big, wet eyes.
Is it true that even the Chinese can’t escape the charm of pandas? Chu Yuening didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Where can she find a panda for her baby?
During the Qin Dynasty, pandas were distributed in Nanshan and Shu County. Their habitat was vast and their tracks were hard to find.
"What do you want?"
After Ying Zheng finished his court session and came to the inner hall, he heard the little boy's sweet and coquettish voice.
When he saw the person coming, Ying Zhao's eyes lit up. He slid down from his mother's lap and ran towards his father with his short legs.
"Zhao Zhao wants to eat the iron beast, so cute~"
"Oh? You want to emulate Chi You at such a young age?"
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly, picked up the little boy and held him in his arms.
I never expected that the kid would be so courageous as to want to ride the iron-eating beast.
"Chiyou?"
Ying Zhao's face was filled with confusion. He bit his fingers and tilted his head in thought.
This completely unrelated scene made Chu Yuening burst out laughing.
"A Zheng, Zizi likes the Iron-eating Beast I drew because it's so cute."
"...The iron-eating beast is ferocious and can fight with tigers and leopards. It is not so gentle and harmless."
Ying Zheng stepped forward and stared at the round and cute creature on the paper, and couldn't help laughing.
Hearing this, Chu Yuening excitedly pulled his big hand and asked eagerly.
"Has A Zheng ever seen an iron-eating beast?"
"Of course, there are a few in Shanglin Garden as well."
"If Yue Ning likes it, I will take you to see it."
Ying Zheng held the woman's hand tightly and promised softly.
The tender affection in her phoenix eyes almost made Chu Yuening fall for him. She lowered her long eyelashes shyly, and a light pink color appeared on her fair face.
For a moment, a sweet atmosphere lingered between the two.
"Zhao Zhao wants to go too!"
The little dumpling had no awareness of being a light bulb and clapped his hands and cheered.
Ying Zheng's face darkened, and he covered the boy's face with his big hands, ruthlessly rejecting his request.
"No, you don't."
A few days later, in the Daqin Academy.
After receiving the imperial edict, the teachers directly gave the students lessons on simplified Chinese characters.
There is no other way, even they themselves are learning simplified Chinese characters overnight.
"Brother Xiao, how did you learn it so quickly?"
Han Xin looked at the powerful handwriting on the white paper, his eyes full of envy and admiration.
When I think back to my crooked handwriting, I feel a little ashamed.
