Don’t talk while eating and don’t talk while sleeping.
The meal was spent in silence. If Song Jinxiu didn't have good hearing, she wouldn't even be able to hear the sound of them chewing.
Seeing the emperor put down his chopsticks, Song Jinxiu quickly put them down as well.
The emperor smiled and asked, "Are you full?"
Song Jinxiu nodded quickly, "I'm full, I'm full."
The emperor's meal was no more than this, exquisite though it was, the taste was a little lacking.
Putting down his chopsticks, the seventh prince Liu Bingze bowed and took his leave. Before leaving, he took a sneak peek at Song Jinxiu.
Song Jinxiu didn't look at him. Since she was pretending not to know him, there was no need to pay more attention to him.
She came, but she had something important to say.
In order not to delay the emperor's lunch break, Song Jinxiu got straight to the point:
"Your Majesty, I went to the Imperial College this morning and found that the mathematics course is really outdated. I want to recompile the mathematics textbook and open an experimental class in the Imperial College. If the effect is good, it can be promoted nationwide."
The emperor looked at her steadily, and Song Jinxiu responded calmly, waiting for her to digest his suggestions. ”
Need to rewrite math textbooks?
Open an experimental class?
Promote nationwide?
What a bold girl! Even a great scholar wouldn't dare to say this.
The queen ordered the palace servants to remove the food. When she heard Song Jinxiu's words, her eyes flashed and she said, "Your Majesty is discussing state affairs with Dr. Song. Can we move to the study?"
The emperor glanced at her. This queen knew when to advance and when to retreat, and the former court and the harem had always been clear.
놛 waved his hand, "It's okay, let's talk about it here."
The queen smiled and nodded, signaling for the palace servant to serve tea. She then sat at the desk on the other side and took out the account book to check the accounts.
Song Jinxiu knew that if she wanted the emperor to agree to such a big thing as mathematics reform, she couldn't just talk big, she had to show real results.
She took out the mathematics book from the Imperial College and also took out the lesson plan she had prepared in advance.
"Your Majesty, I just attended a math class. It takes an incense stick of time for a grade 12 student in our Imperial Academy to solve a field problem. But with the method I taught, it only takes a moment.
As she spoke, she took out a pen and paper from her pocket and began to write and draw.
The emperor watched her take out a crumpled piece of paper and start writing with a black stick. He frowned and ordered, "Spread the paper and grind the ink for Mr. Song Aiqing."
Song Jinxiu waved her hand, "No, no, I'll just use charcoal."
What she wrote was some area formulas.
"Your Majesty, look, for the same problem, I can calculate the area in one go by following these formulas. How long will it take the teachers and students of the Imperial College to use the abacus?"
"The reason why I am re-drafting the math textbook is because these formulas must be combined with the multiplication table. In the future, they will also be extended to division, square, square, and equation problems..."
Song Jinxiu talked freely, and beneath the calm expression of Cangwu Emperor Liu Renxiu, his heart was like a raging wave, ups and downs.
The queen also stared at the girl who seemed to be glowing.
How could there be such a smart person in this world? So, she's still a woman!
She glanced over, saw the emperor's expression, and her body shuddered violently.
She saw surprise and determination in the emperor's eyes.
The queen's heart skipped a beat.
Ten years old, not too old. With this girl's talent and looks, it would be possible to summon her into the palace to be a Zhaoyi.
Song Jinxiu looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I request to open an experimental class, starting from Ming Dynasty, and teach according to my lecture notes."
Liu Renxiu took a sip of tea and suppressed his excitement.
To be able to sit on the throne of emperor, he must have been well-versed in hundreds of schools of thought, mathematics, and military affairs.
께 girl said how precious the formula was, and 놛 knew it best.
It took thousands of years for Tian Tian to achieve such success. These formulas of the girl have at least advanced Cangwu's mathematical achievements by a thousand years, no, two thousand years.
Mathematics is not just mathematics, it is the foundation of life, it is used to guide the upper class and benefit the lower class.
It concerns people's livelihood, currency, conscription, military rations, battle formations, stargazing, and so on and so forth.
It can be said that progress in mathematics will promote the development of all industries in Cangwu. This is a major event concerning the fate of the country.
The emperor looked at her and asked, "Song Aiqing, there is no one here. Can you tell me who your master is?"
Song Jinxiu scratched his head, "Your Majesty, do you really want to know?"
Liu Renxiu nodded, "I really want to know."
All right then, Song Jinxiu said, "My master is the Xuan 罭 Sect's Grand Elder Feng Yu."
"Clang", the teacup next to the emperor fell over.
"Snap", the brush in the queen's hand fell.
"Really?" The emperor slammed the table excitedly.
Song Jinxiu nodded: It seems that Master is very famous?
"Hahaha...Okay, Lord Song, please listen to my orders."
Song Jinxiu was stunned and knelt down quickly.
The emperor sat upright, resting his hands on his knees, and said in a clear voice: "Song is a beautiful woman with a heart of justice, beautiful and intelligent, and is praised for her virtuous and hard work. This is a great tradition of the court. I specially grant her the title of Princess Kangle, a fief of 1,000 households, and a mansion. I decree this."
Song Jinxiu was a little stunned. She hadn't achieved anything yet, so how come she became a princess?
Is it really that effective to have a good master?
The queen held her breath for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh of relief.
When she heard the emperor say that the maid was very smart, she thought: It's over, this child is going to enter the palace to be a sister.
But when she heard the emperor confer the title of princess, she immediately smiled and reminded: "Princess Kangle, why don't you thank the emperor for his grace?"
Song Jinxiu was reminded by the Queen and then she kowtowed to express her gratitude. "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor was in a good mood.
Although the Xuanwu Sect belongs to Cangwu, they only look at the qualifications when accepting disciples, not the country.
When he was young, he traveled to many countries just to find a destined apprentice.
Back then, when 놛 was still a prince, he tried to ask 놛 to be his teacher, but was rejected on the grounds that they were not destined to be together.
I never expected that after going around in circles, apprentice Feng Yu was right in front of me.
Can you not catch it?
Of course it must be caught.
Not to mention the master, just based on the girl's ability, she must be kept in the royal family.
Granting her the title of consort is not something I have not thought about.
But when he saw the clear eyes of the girl, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
Besides, such a smart child was confined to the harem and her talents were buried.
But you are a wise ruler. Since this child is so outstanding, you should confer the title of Princess on her and directly tie her to the Cangwu royal family. Then you won't be afraid that she won't assist you wholeheartedly.
He said happily, "You still have to do it. I will give you a head nanny and two guards with swords. With them protecting you, you just need to let go and do what you want."
Song Jinxiu said quickly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. I will do my best to serve you."
The emperor was even happier, and smiled as he ordered the chief eunuch Zhao Baohai, "Hurry up and renovate the Princess's Mansion."
"yes,"
Song Jinxiu was still a little confused. Was she going to become a princess now?
She couldn't help but ask Zhao Baohai, "Eunuch Hai, what rank is the princess? Does she need to kneel when she sees the princess?"
Zhao Baohai smiled and said, "The princess has a fief of over 1,000, and is a first-rank official. When she meets the princess, she must show respect according to the rules."
The emperor laughed and said, "Hahaha, little girl, except for me, the queen, and the queen mother, I will exempt you from kneeling for anyone else."
Song Jinxiu left the palace happily, with Aunt Chang by her side. And two guards with swords, by the wind and by the rain.
Aunt Chang was a female official of the imperial palace.
The sword-carrying guard You Feng is in his teens and is a fourth-rank military officer. You Yu is fifteen years old and also a fourth-rank military officer. They are brothers.
As soon as I got home, rewards from the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and the Imperial Concubine arrived one after another.
