Then realizing that his reaction was too great, Chen Sisi pretended to be unhappy again:
"Well, Wu Fang'er, I thought you were my sister in vain. I wanted to ask if you wanted my help these past two days, but I was afraid that you would lose face. Who would have thought that you turned around and found someone else to teach you instead of me."
Wu Fang'er thought she had been exposed, and when she was feeling guilty, she raised her head in disbelief when she heard these words: "Is it true?"
Chen Sisi nodded with a smile: "You and I are sisters, why should we sacrifice what is close and seek what is far away? You don't need anyone else, just let me teach you."
Wu Fang'er had a look of surprise on her face, and confirmed again and again that it was true, and said movedly: "Si Si, you are so kind, you are the best to me these days." He never ridiculed her, and always smiled when he looked at her.
Chen Sisi's "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" has won first place in the Japanese examination many times. It is great to have her teach me.
Wu Fang'er was very happy when she thought of this and expressed her gratitude sincerely.
Chen Sisi's eyes were cold, his face was sincere, and he cordially became a sister to Wu Fang'er, as long as Wu Fang'er didn't let that person teach her.
But as soon as she mentioned that person, Wu Fang'er's words flickered and she abruptly changed the topic, making her feel even more chilled.
At lunch that day, Su Siru and a few lackeys suddenly discovered that Chen Sisi and Wu Fang'er had become friends and had an intimate attitude.
The two of them were dining together and serving each other's dishes.
Su Siru looked strange. After thinking about it, she didn't mind the trouble and sat behind the two of them with her lunch, openly listening to other people's "whispers."
When I heard Chen Sisi calling Wu Fang'er affectionately by name and wanted to teach people "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic".
Su Siru sneered: "Hey, the weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the chicken!"
She didn't care that Chen Sisi was present, and said to Wu Fang'er: "You are so stupid, why are you trying so hard? It's useless no matter how hard you try. Besides, you can just do it, who can't you ask her to teach you? Tsk,
Originally, you could still get five points, but if you learn from her, you might get zero points. It's stupid and frustrating, so don't bother."
After stopping Chen Sisi from punishing him last time, Su Siru made a big discovery and decided that Chen Sisi was a smiling scorpion who looked harmless but was actually very poisonous, so she made some sarcastic remarks from time to time.
As soon as these words came out, Chen Sisi and Wu Fang'er looked very ugly.
Wu Fang'er mustered up the courage to retort, but she didn't dare when she saw Su Siru's eyes and shrank in fear.
Chen Sisi looked at Su Siru coldly, endured it again and again, and said to Wu Fang'er: "Fang'er, leave her alone, let's go."
This is just a small episode.
Two nights later, somewhere in the east of the capital, a blazing fire broke out, with thick smoke billowing and flames reaching into the sky. There was a constant sound of running water, and fire-fighting officers and soldiers kept coming and going. The location was in the direction of the Arsenal.
Fortunately, the patrol team passed by and joined the fire-fighting team, so there was no mistake. In the end, the fire only burned half of the Arsenal Department's Yamen, and the fire was almost extinguished when it almost reached the armory. Only two people were injured in this accident, and no one was injured.
Death.
The matter was so important that the old minister of the Ministry of War got up from his bed at night and rushed over. He personally took command and severely reprimanded the incompetent and careless people. Fortunately, the weapons depot was not burned, otherwise the confiscation of the house and the extermination of the clan would not be enough to apologize.
Then Lao Shangshu waved his hand and detained everyone present. No one was allowed to leave. He wrote a memorial to report the accident overnight.
When the emperor found out, Lei Lei was furious that such a bad thing had happened in the arsenal of the Arsenal Department. He immediately ordered that the head of the Arsenal Department, Lang Zhong, and others be dismissed from their posts and await trial. He then sent someone to temporarily take charge of the Arsenal Department to investigate the losses.
The actions were fast and ruthless, and by the time the court went to court the next day, the matter was a foregone conclusion. Many ministers still didn't know what had happened. They only knew that there was a fire in the Arsenal Department. The fire was huge and the smoke was billowing.
The left minister of the Ministry of War was still doing hard work in other places. It was already a long time before he got the news. It was too late.
After the incident occurred, Wu Dingbang led people into the Arsenal Department overnight and was fully responsible for the investigation.
There were warehouse after warehouse of weapons of various types and quantities. Wu Dingbang was checking them all except eating, drinking, and defecating.
The others have already slept in the Arsenal Department, and the people they brought were working in groups of three, supervising each other, and not leaving their sight. They all stayed in the Arsenal Department to prevent news from being transmitted to the outside world.
There are official guards outside, and no one can get in. The rest of the people who know the information have been guarded, and every effort has been made to keep it secret.
The common people had no idea what had happened, and both the government and the central government only thought it was an investigation of the damage caused by the fire.
Yu Chigong went to such great lengths to set up such a fire, so he was bound to find out something.
Wu Dingbang also issued a military order and went to see him if he failed.
The harem knows nothing about these things, and Lihua naturally has nowhere to know.
Days passed like water, and the daily and weekly exams were passed. Looking at the few days left, the show girls became more and more nervous, studying very consciously, and waiting for the final exam to come.
Xiao Zhuozi has some talent in arithmetic and can already independently answer the problems raised by the show girls. Only when the problems cannot be solved, Lihua will take action.
After school, Lihua had a lot less to worry about. She had a lot of time after lunch break and dinner. Xiu Nu had her own little boy to take care of her.
Looking for an opportunity, Lihua also went to the Queen Mother's library. Seeing the library full of rare books, Lihua, like a nouveau riche, came back with a bundle of books to read.
It involves astronomy, geography, humanistic legends, including the history compiled by this dynasty, and even the "Agricultural Planting Law".
This book was one of the reprints compiled by Queen Shotoku. The original version was so precious that it was kept in the attic of the library, and Lihua did not dare to touch it.
She also came across this book by chance. She could see that this book had been read more than once, so she picked it up and flipped through it. She was immediately attracted by the narrative style in the book.
This book is different from all the books compiled in this dynasty. It is all written in the vernacular, and there are many interesting illustrations. The wording, sentences and arrangement are all novel. It looks like it is for a three-year-old child and an illiterate person, and it is very interesting to read.
Very surprised.
This is an agricultural encyclopedia. This narrative method is suitable for the common people. The person who compiled this book dares to break stereotypes and understands the common people very well. He is a genius.
Lihua completely understood. No wonder the agricultural productivity of this era was much more developed than she had imagined. It turned out that there was such a book to guide her.
She looked up the editor and found out that it was Queen Seungdeok.
She vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a folk custom of worshiping Empress Shengde. This Empress should be Queen Shengde. With such a queen, she really deserved to be worshiped by the people.
Lihua thought about it and borrowed a volume. She also picked up a set of history books that could not be circulated outside, hoping to understand the history of Queen Shotoku's era.
Two days ago, Zhichun got a message back. There was actually a field on the west side of the Imperial Garden. It was used to experiment with farming techniques. Later, the farming experimental land was moved out of the palace and moved to the outskirts of Beijing.
There is another chapter. It is either sent out in the early morning or in the morning. It depends on the code word speed.
