The emperor squinted his eyes and looked at the young man standing in front of him with his head bowed. He always felt that the humility shown by this little guy was a bit insincere. But he couldn't find anything wrong with it, so the emperor felt slightly unhappy. Perhaps because he had been sitting cross-legged on the kang for too long, he felt his legs were a little sore, so he got up and stretched his body.
"One hundred and four people from the Ministry of War died, including even masters of the seventh and eighth grades. Do you know how many enemies could be killed if these people were used on the battlefield?"
He walked slowly back and forth a few times to let the blood in his legs flow smoothly.
"No matter what the cause of this case is, I can't pretend to turn a blind eye. Even if you are a disciple of Prince Zhong, although I miss him, even if he violated the laws of the country, I still will not care about personal favoritism. Sui Dynasty is mine. Sui, the rules are set by me, so I can¡¯t break them.¡±
"Dedicate one's crime to meritorious deeds"
Fang Jie suddenly whispered four words.
The emperor was startled, and then he snorted and said: "You have such a strong tone. Tell me, why do you have to make meritorious service to get rid of crime, and what ability do you have to make meritorious service? Where can you make meritorious service?"
Fang Jie took out something from his arms and offered it with both hands: "This thing was originally prepared by the guilty minister to take the liberal arts exam for the Yanwu Academy exam. Now I present it to Your Majesty. Although it is not something of great use, it is for The students of Sui Dynasty, especially those who have just entered rural schools and county schools, are somewhat helpful.¡±
Su Buwei quickly stepped forward and took the things from Fang Jie's hands, bowed and presented them to the emperor with both hands.
Emperor Yang Yi took it and opened it, looked at it casually for a few times, and then his eyes lit up.
He walked back to the Tukang, took off his boots, sat back, and read carefully. What Fang Jie handed over was a book, obviously bound with thread by himself. It's not thick, it only looks like four or five pages. But the emperor looked at it very seriously, although it was undeniable that he didn't understand most of it.
"What's this?"
The emperor raised his head and asked Fang for an explanation: "I can guess the purpose, but perhaps only you know the meaning of the symbols you drew."
"The guilty minister calls this thing Pinyin."
Fang Jie said: "It is to mark the pronunciation of each word. According to this thing, children in township schools and county schools do not have to memorize words to read. As long as each word is marked when the book is printed, Pinyin, as long as school children remember the pronunciation of these pinyin, they can know how to pronounce the words even without guidance from their teachers. "
When Fang Jie said these words, he felt a little bit silly.
When he was in Fan Gu, he racked his brains to think about how he could pass the exams in the Yanwu Academy. After thinking for a long time, he finally determined that these two things were relatively new in the Sui Dynasty. One of them is Chinese Pinyin. School children in the Sui Dynasty were taught word by word by teachers from rural schools, county schools, or private schools. The efficiency was too low. What makes Fang Jie most gratified is that the Sui Dynasty in this world also used Chinese characters, which is equivalent to giving the soil for the development of pinyin.
"good"
The emperor could not help but give a word of praise, beckoned and said: "Come here and tell me how to use these symbols. If it can be implemented, it will be a great thing for the benefit of the people."
Fang Jie glanced at the eunuch, his eyes inquiring. Su Buwei smiled and nodded, and then Fang Jie went over and stood beside the emperor, pointing to what he had written and explaining one by one. The emperor nodded slightly while listening, and occasionally wrote a word and asked Fang Jie how to pronounce it.
I have to say that the emperor is an amazingly smart person.
In just ten minutes, the emperor memorized the pronunciation and writing of almost all syllables.
"When I go to court later, I will ask a few bachelors to see if this method is feasible. If it is possible, this will be a big achievement."
The emperor stretched his waist again, and there was no stingy appreciation in his tone. The previous unhappiness caused by the other party's explanation of the humility that seemed vaguely insincere also disappeared. He stretched his body to a great extent, and Fang Jie could even faintly hear the soft crackling of his cervical and spinal joints.
"Your Majesty, sitting for a long time is harmful to your health. You should be more active."
He took a few steps back and lowered his head and said: "When Fan Gu had nothing to do, he also thought of a few simple movements to relax his muscles and activate his blood circulation. It is not considered martial arts, but it should be considered to be a medical school. Follow this routine every day. A few times, it will still be beneficial to the smooth flow of blood in the long run. "
¡°You do it again and I¡¯ll take a look.¡±
The emperor leaned back, feeling that his neck was sore and tight. In the past, if he felt uncomfortable sitting for a long time, he would ask Cen Guiren to come over for a massage. This Cen nobleman is not from a very good background.In this way, although Qingjunke was not very outstanding among the beauties in the harem, it was the massage techniques that she had carefully learned that made the emperor think of her from time to time. You must know that among so many concubines in the harem, there are many people who can make His Majesty think of him from time to time. How many people may not receive the emperor's favor from the time they enter the palace to the end of their lives.
Fang Jie responded, and then seriously performed the eighth set of radio gymnastics.
While doing it, Fang Jie smiled helplessly in his heart. When I came to this world, I didn't rely on my professional knowledge to make money and prosper, but I relied on the basic things I learned in elementary school to show off. It's a bit ridiculous to think about it.
"Su Buwei, what do you think?"
The emperor asked.
Su Buwei looked at Fang Jie, was silent for a while and said: "This set of movements is very simple, but it can move the whole body. It does have the effect of promoting smooth blood circulation, but I think a small half of the movements can be improved. The effect will be better.¡±
"interesting."
The emperor raised the corner of his mouth, pointed at Fang Jie and asked: "What else do you have? I know you can't practice, but you can be valued by a picky person like Prince Zhong. It must be more than these things. If you can again If you have demonstrated a skill that makes me feel good, I will wait a little longer before discussing the matter with the Ministry of War."
"The guilty minister"
Fang Jie sighed inwardly, thinking that none of the things prepared for the Yanwu Academy could be saved.
"The guilty minister still has some immature views on arithmetic."
"explain!"
¡¡
¡¡
Fang Jie felt that he was a very low-level liar, deceiving the great Sui Emperor with pinyin, a basic course he had learned since kindergarten in his previous life. Immediately afterwards, he used another basic arithmetic course for the first grade of elementary school to deceive the emperor for the second time. These two things made Fang Jie, a time-traveler, feel helpless and a little inferior, but for the time being he had no pride or pride at all.
What is helpless and inferior is that he feels that he is really not a qualified time traveler.
I don¡¯t have a high degree of education, nor am I a professional in a certain subject. Fan Gu relied on some business ideas accumulated in his previous life, but at least he used his IQ. But when I arrived in the imperial capital, I became even more miserable. I relied on knowledge from kindergarten and elementary school.
Fortunately, both of these things are very effective.
At the very least, the emperor does not intend to kill him now.
The arithmetic subjects he mentioned to the emperor were nothing more than explaining the advantages of Arabic numerals in calculations, and then popularizing primary school arithmetic to the emperor. Arithmetic in the Sui Dynasty has reached a considerable level, but it is inevitably a bit cumbersome to use uppercase numbers to calculate.
Therefore, the emperor was very interested in what the other party explained.
So he planned to let Fang Jie stay in Changchun Garden for one more day to take advantage of this young man who was favored by his seventh brother. For some purpose, Luo Weiran, Hou Wenji, and Mr. Zhuo from the Ouchi Guards Department jointly made up a lie to turn Fang Jie, a little guy who only had a relationship with the man in green shirt, into a man in green shirt. Men's disciples.
Of course, only Fang Jie himself knows the situation at that time. They may also really think that the man in green shirt, the famous and legendary Prince Zhong Yang Qi, really accepted Fang Jie as his closed disciple, and he was also his only disciple. It is still difficult for Fang Jie to understand the level of Prince Zhong Yang Qi, and he does not know how amazing and talented this person is. He was only vaguely aware that the emperor valued Prince Zhong Yang Qi more highly than anyone else.
Fang Jie didn¡¯t know what Yang Qi did when he left Chang¡¯an, but he was sure the emperor knew. Moreover, this incident, coupled with Yang Qi's previous withdrawal from the court, made the emperor feel deeply guilty towards Yang Qi. And it was precisely because of this guilt that Fang Jie was extremely lucky to escape the disaster temporarily.
How much emotion does the emperor hide towards this younger brother?
It can be seen from this that Prince Yi Yang Yin was not allowed to enter the court for ten years.
Even when Hongxiu was called back to Chang'an City, the emperor had to say something specifically to encourage Prince Yi, and he said it in front of several important ministers. His intention was not just to encourage Prince Yi? Without what the emperor said in the martial arts arena, how could so many dignitaries and dignitaries flock to the opening of the Red Sleeve Recruitment? Prince Zhong is no longer here, and eleven years is enough time for people to take things lightly. Without Prince Zhong's red-sleeved move, why could so many big shots come to congratulate him?
Those big shots came to Hongxiuzhao after hearing His Majesty's words.
The words the emperor said were meant to be spread through the mouths of his ministers.
In fact, few people in the entire court could see it clearly. Although the emperor did not make any obvious moves, he had been doing it frequently over the years.Unintentionally, the emperor has always protected all people and things related to Prince Hezhong Yang Qi.
So Fang Jie guessed a lot of things in the room that temporarily belonged to him in Changchun Garden.
He was lucky. When he was in Fan Gu, he never thought that the red-sleeved recruitment was the property of Prince Zhong Yang Qi. He never thought that the man in green shirt was actually Yang Qi, let alone that he would rely on him after arriving in the imperial capital. He lives by this legendary figure.
Just this past can be said to be somewhat legendary.
¡°What Fang Jie didn¡¯t know and couldn¡¯t expect was that Prince Zhong Yang Qi¡¯s influence on him was far more than that
Sitting on the bed, Fang Jie thought about the things he had to prepare in detail. Then I borrowed paper and pen from the little eunuch outside and wrote down the most basic arithmetic knowledge in detail. It took me two hours to almost finish it. Looking at the thick stack of paper, Fang Jie felt a sense of accomplishment.
Not long after I finished writing, a young eunuch knocked on the door outside and said, "Mr. Fang, His Majesty summons you to come over."
Mr. Fang?
Fang Jie murmured and repeated it, then smiled. He took out a one-hundred-tael silver note from his sleeve, stuffed it into the little eunuch's hand when he went out, and said, "Thank you for the pen and paper earlier, and thank you for calling me Mr. Fang."
The little eunuch was startled, looked down at the bank note and couldn't help but shake his hands. He hesitated for a while whether to close it or not, keeping his eyes on the writing of one hundred taels. Finally, he looked around and saw that no one was around, and quickly stuffed the banknote into his sleeve.
Fang Jie couldn't help feeling a little emotional. One hundred taels of silver could make a little eunuch feel grateful. Five hundred taels of silver couldn't even make that Su Buwei take a second look. This was the difference in status.
He took what he had written in two hours and walked into the imperial study room with confidence. But the moment he entered the door, he was a little stupid There were six or seven gray-haired veterans sitting in the room. The one sitting closest to the emperor even had a white beard.
The great bachelors in this room look really scary.
¡¡
¡¡
Until it was time to light the lamp, Fang Jie took the trouble to answer the questions of the bachelors. He still had to do calculations on paper with a charcoal pen from time to time. He didn't drink a sip of water or sit down for a while for such a long time, which made him feel like his throat was almost on fire and his legs were sore, but luckily he didn't show any fear. Basically, if you add up to this room, there are almost 500-year-old bachelors living in it.
"If this son can go to Taixue, I promise that in two or three years, Taixue will have one more bachelor. He will also be the youngest bachelor since the founding of the Sui Dynasty in the past century! There is no one before, and perhaps no one since!"
An old minister with a wrinkled face bowed and said to the emperor: "Please allow your majesty to allow Fang Jie to go to Taixue. I have many arithmetic matters, and I want to confirm my calculations with Fang Jie. I beg your majesty to help."
"Wenyuan Pavilion plans to revise Pinyin into a book and spread it to counties and villagesYour Majesty, Fang Jie should go to Wenyuan Pavilion first to do things."
Niu Huilun, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, leaned over and said.
"Stop it."
The emperor smiled and waved his hand and said: "He is determined to be in the military and will take the assessment at the Martial Arts Academy in a few days."
"ah?"
Song Zhuangzhen, a professor of Taixue and a scholar, regretted: "It's a waste of talents"
Niu Huilun, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, sighed: "The pearl is covered with dust"
"If Dean Zhou hears what you are saying, be careful and he will hit it with the sole of his shoe!"
Huai Qiugong, the Minister of Rites, said with a smile.
The emperor smiled and said: "After all, he has a military background, so it is reasonable for him to enter the martial arts academy. If he fails to enter the martial arts academy, it will not be too late for you to ask him to leave."
University scholar Songzhuang Zhen quickly took Fang Jie¡¯s hand and said, ¡°Don¡¯t be admitted!¡±
"Hand in blank!"
University scholar Niu Huilun directly taught Fang Jie: "Except for martial arts, you must hand in blank papers for all other subjects!"
"How about you pretend to be sick?"
An old man said seductively: "There are hundreds of volumes of rare books in this old man's home!"
"Hundreds of volumes of books are not very tempting to explain to the other side, and their power is definitely not as real as hundreds of taels of silver, so he declined them one by one. Looking at the earnest eyes of these bachelors, he could only sigh in his heart What a group of upright old men
"Mingxu, did you just say that you have hundreds of volumes of rare books at home?"
The emperor was aroused by these words. He pointed to the great scholar who had just spoken and said, "Send it to me tomorrow. Don't worry, I won't cheat you. I will return it to you after reading it."
Minister of RitesHuai Qiugong couldn't help but laugh, and he smiled happily when he saw the wonderful expression on Mingxu's face. return? When will the books His Majesty the Emperor borrowed be returned? When His Majesty borrows books, he never returns them.
"Wealth should not be revealed in vain."
The emperor said with a smile, then opened a book on the desk, crossed out one of the names with a red pen, turned the page forward, and wrote the name again.
Fang Jie took a peek and saw the words "chucailu" written on the book.
He doesn¡¯t know what this talent record is, nor does he know what it means that the name is moved forward one page.
Huai Qiugong, who was closest to the emperor, not only knew what Chu Cai Lu was, but also knew what moving the name one page forward meant, so he couldn't help but glance at Fang Jie, thoughtfully.
