Chapter 13 The Imperial Examination (Part Two)



Upon hearing the surname Su, the crowd downstairs roughly guessed that the person inside must be the current Right Chancellor. Their dissatisfaction vanished instantly. Hearing about the "Space Study" and "Complete Guide to Animal Husbandry," they felt a surge of curiosity. Those were books brought out by the amazing young Master Qin, and they even mentioned such a magical item as a spatial dimension! They wanted to see it…

Qin Jiyuan: Don't even think about it. I wouldn't dare go upstairs, but I can still stop you. The main problem is the study; I haven't even been there myself yet. Qin Jiyuan felt wronged, but he didn't say anything.

While chatting with Su Jinyun, Qin Qianluo was also paying attention to the commotion downstairs when she suddenly heard a clear, cool female voice reciting an extremely beautiful poem. Her eyes sparkled as she looked over and saw a woman with a delicate and pretty face, a pink dress, her lips slightly parted, revealing bright eyes and white teeth.

Overjoyed, she said to 001, "001, look at that young lady in the pink dress! She's so beautiful! Truly, her smile makes everything else pale in comparison. It's as if her smile makes everything around her lose its luster."

001 saw the woman; she had a delicate and pretty face, indeed beautiful. "Indeed, coupled with that cool, clear voice, she exudes a powerful, mature aura."

Everyone looked at the woman in pink. She was beautiful and had a melodious voice, like a clear spring. What did she mean by "mature and sophisticated"? Hearing this, the woman in pink smiled even more brightly, thinking to herself: This young Master Qin is really talented. Such a direct praise makes me a little embarrassed.

Qin Jiyuan subtly shifted his feet, seemingly unintentionally blocking Qin Qianluo's view. He thought to himself: Look at me, look at your brother. Stop looking at other women all the time. If you keep looking, everyone will know you're a lecher. It's infuriating that a woman likes to look at beautiful women like this. He would never admit that he was jealous.

Su Xiang also saw the woman, and she was indeed as stunningly beautiful as Qin Qianluo had described. However, he was somewhat displeased. Why was she calling someone "sister" again? What did this "little sister" mean? That woman looked quite old; what did she mean by "mature and sophisticated"? He picked up his teacup and took a sip, his eyes brightening. This tea was truly delicious. Thinking of asking Qin Qianluo for some tea, he decided to take her attention. He put down his teacup, wiped his mouth, and softly asked, "I wonder what kind of tea Qianluo has?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Qianluo turned to look at Su Jinyun and said with a smile, "This tea is called Tieguanyin. I usually like to drink this tea. If Sister Su likes it, I will send it to you tomorrow along with the recipe for the pork jerky."

Su Jinyun looked at the person in front of her with a smile in her eyes and nodded: "Then I won't stand on ceremony with Qianluo. Thank you, Qianluo."

Qin Qianlu waved her hand dismissively. There were plenty of teas in the space, and the space even had an automatic restocking function. How could she refuse a beautiful woman's offer?

The poetry gathering came to an end amidst the two's casual conversation. The Qin siblings bid farewell to Su Jinyun and returned to the Left Prime Minister's residence. Qin Qianluo couldn't hide her excitement at the thought that she would have the opportunity to see so many beautiful women in the court in the future. She once again marveled at the Emperor's benevolence and respect for women. He truly did a good job of gender equality, completely unlike the harsh treatment of women in ancient times in her previous life. Having lived here for eleven years, she had never heard of those ridiculous things like "Admonitions for Women" or "Rules for Women".

After having dinner with her parents, brother, and sister and chatting for a while, Qin Qianluo returned to the courtyard. 001 had already taken out the photocopied animal husbandry manual and the recipe for pork jerky. Qin Qianluo also took out tea leaves and put them away. Thinking of the medical books that she hadn't given to the imperial physicians yet, she took out the photocopied medical books, wrapped them up, and put them on the table, preparing to give them out together tomorrow.

The next day, after court, Qin Qianlu walked briskly to her carriage, took out the medical books meant for the imperial physician, and, taking advantage of her father's inattention, handed the books to the head of the Imperial Hospital: "Imperial Physician Xu, these are some medical books I obtained by chance. I am not skilled in medicine, so I will give them to you. Please take them and see if there are any suitable prescriptions to spread so that more people can be saved."

Upon hearing this, Physician Xu accepted the document with trembling hands. In fact, the other physicians had been waiting impatiently, but Physician Xu had kept quiet and prevented them from asking. Of course, they dared not ask either, for fear of revealing their ability to hear thoughts. Now that they had finally obtained it, they were overjoyed: "On behalf of the people, I thank Lord Qin. Lord Qin is so young yet has such a broad mind. We are ashamed of our own inferiority and will certainly not disgrace these medical skills."

Qin Qianlu smiled and waved her hand, watching the head of the Imperial Medical Academy leave. Then she turned around, picked up the books and tea she had promised to give to Prime Minister Su, and walked towards Su Jinyun, who was talking to the Minister of the Imperial Secretariat.
