Lin Fujian came over with a paper and said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, should this one be included as well?"
Yan Shiyan glanced at it and said, "Of course, why not? I think this person answered very well! His handwriting is also flying, and he must be a super smart person. I tell you, when a person is really smart to a certain extent, he will be good at everything, and it doesn't matter whether he is specialized or not!"
Lin Fujian smiled and said, "What the Prime Minister said is true."
Emperor Ming Yan glanced at her with a smile and took the paper: "No need to add it."
"Why?! Father, do you want to use this person? Then you..." Yan Shiyue was about to say something else, but he glanced at the name above.
Changan and Yansan.
Yan Shiyue: “…”
She was stunned: "This is... Could this be... But Aye doesn't write like this!"
Qu Sinian couldn't bear to watch: "Prime Minister, the emperor can write in many different styles."
Lin Fujian smiled and said, "Nine is the extreme number, just right."
...
...
He smiled at her and said, "I thought the Prime Minister had already seen it."
How could she tell? She couldn't identify handwriting with their naked eyes! She might not even recognize Emperor Ming Yan's handwriting!
But look at her own comments, "This person has a very clear vision, looks at things from a high position, is not bothered by details, is wise and sharp, and can be of great use."
Yes! She has always admired talented people! She has never looked down on them! Why do you treat her like this!
Yan Shiyue was filled with grief and indignation. "You are all bad people! All of you! How can a group of scholars bully me?"
Emperor Ming Yan did not let her go, and said with a smile: "Am I considered to be 'smooth' now?" He pressed her back and smiled: "Then I will wait for Yue'er to be 'smooth'."
I was wrong, really. Why should I offend intellectuals?
It was not until this moment that she realized very clearly that she had strengths... and weaknesses. In this social environment, her weaknesses were very obvious, so she should give others a way out and beg for forgiveness in the future.
Otherwise, it would be really easy to be hunted down! There is no need to look for opportunities!
Damn, she must avenge her previous shame! Isn’t it just an eight-part essay! Isn’t it just a routine! I have never lost when I use routines!!!
As soon as the trade department was announced, there was another uproar.
There were quite a few people who were conceited about their talents and thought they would definitely pass the exam, but somehow they failed. However, the existence of the Bihuabang just comforted these people.
Yan Shiyue hadn't been home for three days. As soon as she got home, she hugged her children and kissed them one by one for a long time.
Sun Wuniang came over and asked her, "Master's Wife, Fourth Brother has tried it. Should we send someone to the He family to ask for a date?"
Yan Shiyue said, "Wait a minute. After the palace examination, if you rank well, I'll ask for an arranged marriage. It will be glorious if you tell others about it. If not, we can talk about it later."
Sun Wu Niang responded and said, "I wonder if the emperor will go to the palace this year? I'll ask them to prepare first. Si Lang from the palace often comes over, and I've prepared some for him as well. Even if the prince can't go, we can take Si Lang with us, or ask the princess to go with us. When he's older, he'll go to school and won't be able to go."
"Well," Yan Shiyue said with a smile, "You are so thoughtful. Let's do it this way, my little beauty~"
She pinched her face.
As a result, Jiaozi and Nian Gao learned it right away when they were just learning to speak. When Xu Wenqu and his friends came in, they ran up and called him "little beauty~~" When his father came back and picked him up, his daughter touched his face and called him "little beauty~~"
Huo Qijing: “…”
He glared at her.
Yan Shiyue lowered his head, feeling very guilty.
The child is grown up now. I have to pay attention to the occasion when flirting with girls in the future...
In the evening, Yan Shiyue gossiped with Huo Qijing about Emperor Ming Yan getting ninth place in the exam. Huo Qijing nodded and said, "I told you long ago that the emperor just didn't have time to study."
Yan Shiyue snorted and raised his chin: "Just wait and see!"
Huo Qijing smiled, stretched out his hand to hold her chin, bent down to kiss her, and called her in a low voice: "Little beauty?"
She laughed.
He buried his face in the crook of her neck and laughed so hard that she felt completely weakened.
To be honest, good kung fu is reflected in all aspects, such as the exhilarating and exhilarating performance, the horse-riding and shooting flowers, etc. Words cannot describe it all.
Yan Shiyue hadn't gotten up yet in the morning, and Jiahe outside reported: "Master, Lin Cheng sent someone back and brought two carts of utensils."
Yan Shiyue got up and asked someone to bring it over. It turned out to be made of stainless steel.
In fact, there was so-called "hundred-refined steel" in the Han Dynasty, which was similar to stainless steel, because it contained chromium and was therefore stainless. However, the craftsmanship was immature and the production was complicated, and those who could make it had to be sword masters.
So they built steel mills mainly to improve the process, put new furnaces and blowers into use, use coke as a new fuel, streamline the process and achieve mass production.
The iron mine that Lin Cheng went to contained chromium. Anyway, it was pig iron, wrought iron, steel... The carbon content was constantly reduced, and the whole process was relatively smooth.
You know, copper was very scarce and sensitive in ancient times. It was equivalent to the reserve material of currency and was sold by the government. Therefore, if there was rustless steel, it could replace many things.
Lin Cheng brought over basins, bowls, pots, and knives, and Yan Shiyue took them into the palace.
She walked slowly to the imperial study, and the officials waiting to see her all bowed to her. The fourth prince was also there, and he stood up and said, "Yuer."
Yan Shiyue said: "Hey, you're back!"
The fourth prince nodded, and Prince Chun smiled and said, "What is the Prime Minister hiding?"
Yan Shiyue smiled and said, "You are the only one with sharp eyes." She stretched out her hands from behind her back, holding a stainless steel bowl. The Fourth Prince took it first: "What is this? Is it made of sword-making materials?"
Yan Shiyue nodded: "I guess so. It's better than the material for sword making."
"Better than the material for making swords?" Several people gathered around him and asked, "What is this?"
Yan Shiyue said: "It's newly made by the Ministry of Commerce. I call it stainless steel."
A few people passed it around to read. Just then, the prince came over, so Yan Shiyue gave him Lin Cheng's letter directly: "Brother, please tell me when you go in. The others have been given to Li Dequan. I just took a bowl as a show."
The prince responded, and Yan Shiyue went to find the queen.
A few days later, the palace examination for Jinshi degree was held.
Zhao Kuangyin was a man of excellent psychological quality and a talent for examinations. He was not particularly outstanding at ordinary times, but when the time came, he wrote as if possessed by a god and actually got a place in the imperial examinations.
You have to know that he was a military officer with the rank of colonel. Although there was no legal restriction, it would still be very eye-catching for a military officer to get a Jinshi degree.
Emperor Mingyan promoted him two levels and conferred him the title of General Wentong, which means he is proficient in both civil and military affairs. He remained in the Yulin Army and a marriage was arranged for him.
Everyone around was envious, and many people said: "The Prime Minister really has a keen eye for talent. He has accepted several consecutive Jinshi and even top three candidates as his disciples."
Zhao Kuangyin immediately retorted: "It's not that you have a good eye for identifying a pearl. I am just a fish eye! This is because Mr. Xu taught me well, and secondly, because of the Prime Minister's patience and reform. Otherwise, let alone others, I am just an ordinary military general now, and Ren Zenan would never be able to get into the top three."
If others think about it, they will agree.
In fact, all of these people are more or less related to Xu Wenqu.
Needless to say, Xu Wenqu himself, his disciples Yan Shirong, Huo Qiyang, as well as Ren Zenan and Zhao Kuangyin, were all taught by him. Therefore, the most amazing thing about the Prime Minister was that he accepted Xu Wenqu as his disciple.
But... everyone is waiting behind the scenes, "Let's see if Xu Liuyuan can turn stone into gold this time!"
