When Zhu Aao heard this, she immediately blushed, lowered her head and said nothing.
"That means it's gone?" When Emperor Chongzhen saw it, he didn't know whether he didn't see it, or whether he saw it and said it deliberately.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ailao quickly turned to look at his brother.
When Zhu Cixiang saw it, he couldn't help but laugh silently, and then hurriedly reported to Emperor Chongzhen: "Father, there is one named Xia Wanchun, who has perfect scores in the arithmetic examination, 105 points in physics, 100 points in chemistry, and ranks first in the comprehensive examination of men's subjects.
two."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and immediately laughed and said: "Okay, I have the impression that this person is a good one!"
What he said was impressive. In fact, it was not just that he saw the list first and knew Xia Wanchun's achievements; Liu Weichao once told him that Xia Wanchun was the smallest martyr who died in the anti-Qing Dynasty in the late Ming Dynasty. Even if Hong Chengchou came forward to persuade him to surrender,
I didn’t bend my spine!
Emperor Chongzhen was deeply impressed by this. When Zhu Cixiang heard this, he remembered it.
This Xia Wanchun had a good character and excellent grades in studying physics. The most important thing was that his daughter actually fell in love with him, which made Emperor Chongzhen very satisfied.
While he was thinking about it, Zhu Cixiang continued to add with a hint of smile: "My son, I just met this Xia Wanchun. It can be seen that he admires Ainao very much. He said that he would take the path of studying physics in the future and give up the imperial examination.
official."
"Hahaha..." Emperor Chongzhen became even more happy when he heard this. He looked at Zhu Aola and smiled so much that her neck turned red when she lowered her head.
Afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen went to see Empress Zhou about Zhu Auao's affairs.
It can be seen that he is in a very good mood.
Seeing this, Zhu Aao didn't say anything, but she was very grateful that she had a very good father.
But there was one thing she misunderstood.
The reason why Emperor Chongzhen was in such a good mood was not only because her marriage was on the horizon, but also because Emperor Chongzhen really discovered many talents in the field of objects through this special scientific examination.
Liu Weichao estimated that the Ming Dynasty would not have anyone with perfect scores. However, facts have proved that the Ming Dynasty had many outstanding talents. Not only did they have perfect scores, but there were several!
In addition, through this special scientific examination of gewu studies, he discovered that Fang Yizhi, a gewu scholar, should be as good as Song Yingxing. This discovery was one of the reasons why Emperor Chongzhen was in a very good mood.
Even if there was only a talent like Fang Yizhi, Emperor Chongzhen had reason to believe that he could speed up the technological progress of the Ming Dynasty and increase the speed at which the Ming Dynasty could climb the technological tree.
……………………
In the capital city, with the announcement of the list, the most dazzling one is undoubtedly Zhu Ainao.
All three subjects have perfect scores, which is even better than the Men's Department. You know, the test papers are the same.
For the first time, all the women were so proud that they spoke a little louder in front of a group of big men, as if they themselves had achieved such good results.
Naturally, many people began to inquire about the origins of Zhu Yuluo.
Among these people, some admired Zhu Yurao's talent in the study of physics and wanted to ask for advice; some were not convinced by Zhu Yurao's results and wanted to take a test; there were even people who wanted to challenge Zhu Yurao.
Let’s see if we can use Zhu Yuluo’s reputation to become famous...
In short, there are people with any purpose.
As for the origin of Zhu Yurao, Emperor Chongzhen had no intention of hiding it. Because of the princess's identity, the news spread even faster.
The list was announced that day, and by the time we had dinner in the evening, word had spread throughout the city.
"What, the female champion is actually Princess Kunxing?"
"No wonder, it turns out that the female champion is actually a princess, it's really amazing!"
"Why did the princess also take part in the special scientific examination on geophysics? Isn't this inconsistent with the ancestral system?"
"What kind of ancestral system? Is there a special scientific examination on geophysics before?"
"That's right, so what if you do, you can't be an official if you pass the exam!"
"The princesses all have perfect scores and are better than the boys. Is there something fishy in this?"
"The heart of a villain can judge the heart of a gentleman. Do you think you men are the only ones smart?"
"That's right, Your Majesty is so wise and powerful. Do you think you would reveal the topic to the princess first, and then blatantly let the princess become the number one female scholar?"
"..."
When the news spread that the female number one scholar was Princess Kunxing, things were far from what Emperor Chongzhen thought, and she would suffer a lot of criticism. Almost all women in the capital city, old and young, would take the initiative to defend Princess Kunxing, to the dismay of those gentlemen and the like.
They all have no temper, unless the master can speak his mind, otherwise in the end, he will not be able to speak to women.
Compared with the opinions of ordinary people, Fang Yizhi, the number one scholar in male subjects, is very admired.
rock bottom
To be honest, he thought that his foundation in geophysics was very good, but when faced with the chemistry course, especially the last two questions, he still found it difficult. Vaguely, he felt that the chemistry course
class, he still lacks the ability to practice.
Fang Yizhi knew that the study of physical studies originated in the palace, and it was not surprising at all that Princess Kunxing was the first to learn more, become more solid, and score better in scientific examinations.
Thinking about this, Fang Yizhi even looked forward to it, and murmured to himself: "In three days, when I go to the palace for an audience, I hope to have the opportunity to ask Princess Kunxing for advice!"
That's right, according to the regulations announced for the Special Examination of Gewu Studies, on the third day after the list is announced, the top 150 in the male subject and the top 100 in the female subject, that is, the candidates listed on the red list, will enter the palace.
Visit.
Then there will be a parade to praise one's achievements. Of course, this is an honor that only the top pick, top pick, and second place can have.
The days actually went by very quickly, it was only three days, and it passed quickly.
Two hundred and fifty people gathered at the Jinluan Hall. Yes, Emperor Chongzhen raised the standard of this interview to the highest level and summoned him at the Jinluan Hall to show that he valued him.
Needless to say, everyone's attention was focused on Princess Kunxing, who was the number one scholar in the female subject and the number one male and female candidate. They all wanted to meet, what was Princess Kunxing like?
The only exception was Emperor Chongzhen, who valued Fang Yizhi and Xia Wanchun more.
After talking about the scene, he became even more concerned about Fang Yizhi and Xia Wanchun.
Then, there was the souvenir given by the emperor to the first special scientific examination of quwuxue, which was also the voucher for admission: an iron plate with the seven arc-shaped characters "special scientific examination of quwuxue" engraved on it, surrounded by an Arabic figure in the middle
The number is 001, and on the back is the candidate's name and the year of Chongzhen's 17th year.
One exception is that the souvenirs for the No. 1 pick, No. 3 pick and No. 2 pick are made of gold, silver and copper.
Originally, it would have been arranged for the number one scholar, third overall winner and second prize winner to parade through the streets to praise their merits. However, before that, Emperor Chongzhen announced: "You are all talents in the study of physics in the Ming Dynasty. Let's sit down and discuss the truth together."
Progress is the true nature of a student and the characteristic of the study of physics. I will give you half an hour to discuss with you."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand.
Wang Chengen, who had been preparing for it for a long time, quickly signaled, and all the palace maids and chamberlains entered the palace one after another, placed tables, tea, fruits and snacks, and started a literary meeting.
Ancient people, especially literati in the late Ming Dynasty, loved to form associations, and these associations originated from literati gatherings, such as poetry gatherings, tea parties, poetry gatherings, imperial examination discussions, etc.
Emperor Chongzhen announced that he would hold a cultural conference on the study of objects, which was actually not unexpected at this time. The only thing that was special was that it was in the Jinluan Palace, under the eyes of the emperor.
Naturally, when these students saw this, they all sat in a polite manner, not daring to eat, and no one asked questions.
The reason for this is that they were afraid that the questions they asked would sound too vulgar to Emperor Chongzhen and would make a bad impression. Some people were also worried that if they asked questions, they would not appear knowledgeable.
Shallowness is not good either!
After the Jinluan Palace was quiet for a while, Emperor Chongzhen frowned slightly.
The purpose of holding this literary meeting was to rectify Zhu Yura's name and let them all know that Zhu Yura was the number one scholar based on his own strength.
But if these people don’t ask, what should we do?
When Emperor Chongzhen was about to speak, he saw Fang Yizhi, the number one scholar in the male department, coughed, and then saluted Zhu Ainao, the number one scholar in the female department opposite, and said, "I have a question that I would like to ask Princess Kunxing!"
Zhu Yuyao actually paid attention to Fang Yizhi, not only because Fang Yizhi was the number one scholar in male subjects, but also because Fang Yizhi was a Jinshi, and he gave up his official career in order to study physics.
When asked, he immediately smiled and replied: "Excuse me!"
So, Fang Yizhi asked Zhu Yuyao how to solve the additional chemistry question that he couldn't solve.
When other people heard this, they realized that they didn't know the topic, so they all listened.
So, Zhu Yuyao started to talk eloquently and explained the solution method of the additional chemistry question.
Some people still didn't know what it meant, but most of the people sitting in front suddenly realized that it was like this.
Xia Wanchun looked at Princess Kunxing talking there. Looking at that look, her heart melted. It felt so beautiful!
So, as soon as Fang Yizhi's question was answered, he quickly asked Princess Kunxing for advice.
Under the leadership of the two of them, almost everyone present wanted to ask Princess Kunxing for advice. Anyway, one result was ignored by everyone else.
Princess Kunxing could basically talk eloquently about the questions they asked without even thinking about it. Her talent in studying things impressed the students in the Jinluan Palace on the spot.
This made Emperor Chongzhen see that there was always a smile on his face. His daughter was like this, and the father was very proud!
Afterwards, people in the capital naturally paraded around to praise their achievements. As the candidates left, word of Zhu Yuluo's talent naturally spread.
From then on, no one questioned Zhu Yuluo's achievements!
At this time, it was already the late autumn of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen. Not to mention the first grand opening of the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Ming Dynasty, there were two ships in the Japanese country on the island far away, slowly approaching the dock of Edo.
