After finishing the meal and going to the study and serving tea, Yan Shiyue said, "Gu Xiaolang."
Gu Xiao stood up quickly and responded: "Your Highness."
He thought she would ask him about some family matters, but she directly said, "For example, the width of the breach in the dam is 53 feet, and the water depth is about 66 feet..." She gave a lot of conditions, "Let's do the math."
Gu Xiao: “……???”
He immediately calmed down and started to calculate.
Yan Shiyue gave him several questions in a row and felt that this guy was really good. She needed to hold the pen and calculate for a long time, but he could get the answer after closing his eyes for a while.
Yan Shiyue was very satisfied.
Little did he know that Gu Xiao was also very shocked. Among the people he met, even those who passed the imperial examinations, no one could understand his algorithm. This princess seemed to be unlearned, but unexpectedly she was a very talented person.
Yan Shiyue didn't know that she had shocked him unintentionally.
She said to him directly: "I am going to send you to see the prince, what do you think?"
...
...
Gu Xiao was surprised and delighted. He stood up quickly and bowed to the ground: "Thank you, Your Highness. However, please allow me a day to settle my younger sister."
She asked him, "How are you going to place her?"
Gu Xiao thought about it and said, "I want her to find an excuse to go to the temple and eat vegetarian food for a few days."
"Not right," Yan Shiyue said, "I don't know how long you'll be gone! Besides, I'll ask someone to tell you today. You know everything you need to know, right?"
Gu Xiao lowered his eyes in silence. Yan Shiyue said, "How do you feel about this? I'll ask my mother for a maid and send her to your house in my name? She'll wait until you come back and then come back?"
Gu Xiao was delighted and bowed again: "Thank you, Your Highness! I will repay your kindness with my life!"
Yan Shiyue said, "No need to sacrifice your body. I will only do this if you are so valuable."
She motioned to Wei Bo to go over and borrow someone, and soon, Meng Min's maid Zhu Xin came over.
Zhu Xin was older and calmer. Yan Shiyue gave her a few instructions and was about to tell Jia He when Huo Qijing said, "I'll ask a few soldiers to escort him over."
Yan Shiyue thought about it and nodded, saying, "Remember to tell the prince when you get there that the person is lent to him and he has to return it after use."
Huo Qijing nodded, and ordered a few personal soldiers to send Gu Xiao directly back to the mansion, and then send him directly to Bianzhou after he had given instructions.
Her way of directly interfering in other people's affairs was actually quite unreasonable, but given her status, Duke Liguo couldn't say much.
It doesn't matter if she says more, since she has already reported it to Emperor Ming Yan.
And A gave her the result two days later.
Gu Xiao's mother and grandmother both died of the same disease, and the one who did it was most likely the second wife, Mrs. Zhao.
Originally it was just a secret of the rear house, but now Gu Xiao suddenly stepped forward, and before leaving, he asked Princess Fu Yan for someone to come and put him next to his younger sister, which clearly showed that he was worried about the mansion. Duke Liguo sensed the emperor's intention and it was impossible for him not to investigate... After investigating, he was shocked and angry.
His daughter-in-law was fine, but his own mother died at the hands of this vicious woman. How could Duke Li not be angry? He ordered his second son to divorce his wife on the spot, and then sent Zhao to the Dali Temple, where she was said to be sentenced to immediate execution.
Then Duke Liguo requested that the title be passed on to Gu Xiao after a hundred years.
This is what is called rising to the top in one step. He got close to Empress Fu and not only did he rise to a high position, but he also got a title. He didn't even have to dirty his hands when he wanted revenge.
Yan Shiyue once again became the number one person that people wanted to hook up with in the capital.
At this moment, Yan Shiyue was sitting in the study room racking his brains.
She casually agreed to the plan to reform the Imperial College at that time, but she didn't expect that Emperor Ming Yan would ask her about it when he saw her the next day... Only then did she realize that Emperor Ming Yan really wanted a proposal, rather than just listening to her wild talk and then thinking about it himself.
What else can she do? She has to write.
There are naturally many advanced educational concepts, but it is more difficult to make them conform to the national conditions of this era and be acceptable to the public.
She tried hard to hold it in for two days and summarized several main ones.
One is the spirit of competition.
For example, the refinement of activities such as Cuju, horse racing, and poetry competitions that already existed, the Imperial College and the Imperial University could organize a debate competition every month, and they could also exchange articles, comment anonymously, and so on.
In general, it is about cultivating team spirit and competitive spirit, and not always shutting yourself in, holding on to shitty articles and thinking you are a living literary giant.
One is to observe the world.
For example, you can find a few beggars or a few death row prisoners and ask them to make the distinction. The main purpose is to cultivate their observation skills, while also allowing them to get in touch with different social classes.
One is transposition.
What kind of books are they tested on every day? Is it good to have a thorough understanding of worldly affairs? ? For these children of aristocratic families who do not need to take the imperial examination, doing things is far more important than studying.
For example, a proposition is proposed: how does a person survive in a strange place?
If these people keep talking about unrealistic things, just tell them to change their clothes and not reveal their identities, and then try it on real people according to what he wrote. I guarantee that they will be cured in one go.
In addition, she also proposed upgraded versions of field survival training, actual combat exercises, gall tasting tests, etc.
Yan Shiyue's writing is very cheerful.
She didn't even use Xu Wenqu. She just finished writing and showed it to Emperor Ming Yan.
She said to him in a very proud tone: "Aye, do you know why I wrote that gallbladder tasting experiment? I did it on purpose!"
Emperor Mingyan cooperated and showed interest: "Oh?"
"Because no matter who it is, even if it's my third brother, who is so strong, I won't agree to let him go to a beggar's den without paying him a penny, not to mention surviving in the wild. So, I wrote down these obviously excessive things, and those old men will definitely criticize them. At this time, Aye, you must support them! Don't agree all at once. Let them be extremely desperate, and then delete it after they have accepted the advice. Then it will be easy for the lower levels to pass it."
Having been an emperor for half his life, Emperor Ming Yan, who had mastered these things to perfection, smiled and said, "Yuer is indeed smart. How about this, Yueer will also go to court tomorrow and argue with these old men?"
Yan Shiyue immediately backed off: "No, no, no! I don't want it!" She shook her hands: "This is not good, Aye, I really can't do it. I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, I'm leaving first!"
She fled in panic.
Emperor Mingyan smiled and called Gu Jiuxing, "Call Yan Shirui."
Yan Shiyue thought she had escaped a disaster, but she didn't expect that the next day, not long after she got up, Gu Jiuxing's apprentice Li Dequan came over and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, the emperor summons you to the palace."
Yan Shiyue was surprised: "What happened?"
Li Dequan said, "I don't know the details, but it seems that Master Xiao Yan submitted a memorial today, and many masters disagreed, so they started arguing. The emperor seemed to get angry, and then for some reason, he asked His Highness to be summoned."
Oh no, there must be something wrong with her memorial.
Yan Shiyue didn't have time to change clothes, so he walked out directly. After taking a few steps, he went to the study, then got on the horse, walked straight into the palace gate, and entered the Taiji Palace.
Today is not a grand court meeting. In fact, not many people are attending the court. Moreover, in the morning court of the Dayan Dynasty, not every official has to stand. Several senior officials have seats.
As soon as she entered the hall, everyone stood up to greet her.
Then Emperor Mingyan asked, "Did you write the memorial to reform the Imperial College?"
