Chapter four hundred and fiftieth chapters again in the court
"The dignified Imperial Academy is actually inferior to a young prince. What an Imperial Academy!"
Qin Huan, the Minister of Household Affairs, walked out of the palace and said with a sullen face.
The officials of the Imperial College lowered their heads, not daring to say a word in rebuttal. The Imperial College had lost face in front of His Majesty today. In the same school examination, the scores of the arithmetic students were as good as those of a group of seven or eight-year-old princes. What's more,
She was left far behind by the older Princess Shouning and His Royal Highness Prince Jin. If this matter spread, the Imperial College would never think of raising its head in front of others in the future.
"Teacher, we..."
One student mustered up the courage to ask a doctor of mathematics. The other person said in a cold voice with a sullen face: "Why are you still standing here? Isn't it embarrassing enough? Why don't you go back!"
The confused mathematics students who were scolded saw the expressions on the teachers' faces and immediately did not dare to say another word, and followed them away dejectedly.
An incredible thought occurred in the minds of more than ten people at the same time. Could it be that those little princesses and princes really solved those perverted problems that even they had no way to deal with?
I wanted to ask, but I saw those cold faces, but I didn't dare to speak. Thinking about what Qin Shangshu just said, I felt my face was burning...
In the Bowen Hall, the princes and princesses gathered around Emperor Jing with their heads lowered. They knew that their father would definitely not be satisfied with the exam this time, so they were cautious and did not dare to speak.
As for Jin King Li Han, he raised his head high and looked at the world. As the only person who answered all ten questions correctly, he had such confidence.
Princess Shouning was the liveliest one and didn't seem to care at all. She stuffed a chilled grape into Emperor Jing's mouth and asked with a smile: "Father, are these grapes sweet?"
Emperor Jing smiled, looked at everyone and said, "Father is very satisfied with this exam. Don't stand here anymore. Go and have fun..."
Without waiting for the imaginary admonishment, all the princes and princesses immediately felt relieved and dispersed in an instant. Only King Li Han of Jin stayed and looked up at Emperor Jing, as if he had something to say.
"What else does Han'er have to do?" Emperor Jing looked at Li Han and said with a smile.
When Li Yi told him that King Jin was very talented in arithmetic, he actually didn't pay much attention to it. However, this time, he deeply realized that the little fat man who was greedy and playful before was actually taught to this extent by Li Yi.
"Father, I, I think..." Li Han was hesitating whether to tell his father that he did not want to take arithmetic classes in the future. Emperor Jing smiled again and said: "Your husband once told your father that Han'er was here
He is extremely talented in arithmetic, Han'er will have to work harder in the future, maybe my father still has many areas where he can ask Han'er to help."
"What?" King Jin was obviously shocked by the news, with a stunned expression on his face.
My husband told my father that he was very talented in arithmetic?
How is this possible? Your husband only tortures him with those difficult problems. How can he praise himself in front of his father?
Seeing King Jin's stunned look, Emperor Jing touched his head and said, "Okay, okay, tell me what happened to Han'er..."
"No, no..., Father, I went out to play too..."
This accident made him forget what he was going to say. King Jin showed a proud look on his face. He took a few grapes from the dish on the side and ran out of the palace.
Emperor Jing smiled as he watched him run away. When his eyes turned to the stack of test papers for the school examination again, a look of thought gradually appeared on his face.
…
…
"Why are you here?" Li Yi looked at Li Xuan who came in from outside and asked in surprise.
"I'm bored staying in the Prince's Mansion, come and take a look." Li Xuan said casually, but his eyes were fixed on the thing in Li Yi's hand. He came over curiously and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Aren't you grounded?" Li Yi asked doubtfully.
"Yes." Li Xuan nodded, but looked at Li Yi strangely, "Does it matter?"
"It doesn't matter..." Li Yi shook his head. Even the world belongs to their family. The old emperor said it casually, and it has nothing to do with whether Li Xuan is in the Prince's Mansion or not.
Li Xuan took two glances and lost interest in the pile of rags in Li Yi's hands. He ran out of the kitchen to ask for a pot of grape wine, and then moved a chair to sit next to Li Yi.
With one mouthful, he said: "I have been bullied by the King of Shu when I was a child. This time I finally let out a sigh of relief. If such good things happen again in the future, remember to call me."
"Come on." Li Yi lowered his head and continued working, without even looking at him, and said: "How you fight with the King of Shu is your royal family's business. If I beat the King of Shu again, my head may not be where it is.
"
"Then why were you so bold last time?" Li Xuan turned to look at him. He is still very curious about this matter.
"Hysteria, hysteria..." Li Yi said seriously, and then asked: "How are the activities in the court these days?"
"Nothing happened..." Li Xuan shook his head and said: "The King of Shu himself is not honorable in this matter. Those people will not make the matter bigger. Except for the initial clamoring to punish the two of us severely, there has been no response at all in recent days.
People talk about those things in court."
"Those people..." Li Yi raised his eyebrows, suddenly became interested, and asked: "Who are they?"
"Who?" Li Xuan looked at him and said: "Of course they are the Qin Prime Minister and his family, as well as those officials close to the King of Shu. They were the ones who made the most trouble in the court that day, such as the Minister of Rites and the Imperial College.
Sacrificial wine..."
"Wait a moment."
"What are you going to do?" Li Xuan asked in confusion as Li Yi suddenly stood up and walked towards the house.
"Get paper and pen..."
After a while, Li Xuan was shocked when he saw that Li Yi actually took out a pamphlet.
…
…
"Do you have anything else to report?" Today's morning court was about to end. Emperor Jing sat on the dragon chair and asked as usual.
There are not many things worthy of discussion among the officials in the court today. It is just that the third prince of the Qi State led a group of Qi State's capable people to stir up trouble in Kyoto. All the famous Confucian scholars were visited by them, which led to the current situation.
The great Confucians are all in danger and simply stay behind closed doors...
But he couldn't do anything about it. He couldn't drive them all out. After all, they didn't do anything excessive. They discussed knowledge openly and won openly. Even though there were many rumors about this among the people, they won because of their victory over Qi.
The confidence generated was greatly reduced, and at the court level, there was no effective way to reverse or change it.
"I have this memorial."
Chen Bo, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, walked out of the crowd, hugged the wat board, and said loudly: "I heard that Li Yi, the son of Chang'an County, was ordered by your majesty to teach arithmetic to the princes. However, Li Yi, the son of the county, only had the reputation of being a scholar, and advocated the "new arithmetic"
It is a crooked way, and it was also rejected by the Imperial College. How can a mere scholar teach a prince, which is inconsistent with etiquette and emotion..."
The Minister of Rites, Chen Shilang, talked a lot. All the officials had different thoughts, Emperor Jing's face was expressionless, and the corner of the Imperial Academy's mouth twitched as he was drinking wine, wishing he could sew Chen Shilang's mouth shut.
The Imperial College had lost face in front of His Majesty just yesterday. Several mathematical doctors spent all night studying new mathematics. After all, this time it was excusable. If something happens next time, it will not only be a punishment of one year's salary...
…
Chen Shilang's words undoubtedly dragged them out of the Imperial Academy again and put them on the fire!
