Chapter 132 Do you want Xiao Yuanzi to join the Ministry of Industry?
Xiao Yuanzi helped her solve two problems in succession, so Yun Shu naturally had to keep the promise she had made to Xiao Yuanzi.

The general concept of "Windwheel Ox" was briefly described to Emperor Xuanwu.
Yun Shu showed a very well-behaved smile:

"Father, don't you think it's a waste for a talented person like Xiao Yuanzi to just be a eunuch in the palace?"

"Ok?"

Emperor Xuanwu now knew Yun Shu quite well. As soon as he saw her expression, he knew that she must have been thinking up some new idea.
He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and snorted:
"Tell me, what do you want to do?"

"This is not what I want to do, but I hope Xiao Yuanzi can do something for the Tiansheng Dynasty!"

Yun Shu pointed at the curved plow:

"Father, do you think this plow is difficult to make?"

"It shouldn't be difficult."

Emperor Xuanwu lowered his eyes and looked at the curved plow in front of him, which made him so happy.
Although he believed this to be a divine object, it was undeniable that in essence, this thing was just a few pieces of wood and iron.

"But father, it's so simple, how come no one has ever made it before?"

"..."

yes! why?

"Actually, think about it. Is a horseshoe complicated? Is a quill pen complicated? Is printing complicated?"

Without waiting for Emperor Xuanwu to answer, Yun Shu shook his head and continued:
“That’s even simpler than a curved plow, but no one has ever made one before.

I thought that maybe everyone thinks about problems in different ways.

Many people always confine their thinking within an existing framework and never consider things that do not exist outside the framework.

Maybe... this is why Master Ye pays so much attention to "innovation".

Because Master Ye knows that there are not many people as smart and clever as me, who have innovative thinking. "

"..."

She just said it, and she had to take the opportunity to praise herself a few more times!
Emperor Xuanwu curled his lips, and because the things she had tinkered with were indeed very useful, he did not interrupt her.

The next moment, he heard Yun Shu suddenly raise his voice again and emphasized:

"Besides that! I think there might be another reason, which is lazy governance!"

“Lazy politics?”

When Emperor Xuanwu heard these two words, his eyes darkened, and he finally couldn't help but speak:

"Are you talking about me?"

"Father, you are very busy and have worked hard for the Tiansheng Dynasty. Everyone has seen it!

How could I think you were lazy in governing?"

Unexpectedly, Emperor Xuanwu would be so sensitive when hearing these two words. Yun Shu quickly denied it in an exaggerated manner:

"What I want to talk about is obviously the Ministry of Works!
You see, apart from people like my grandfather who are always busy, the rest of the Ministry of Works are particularly idle when they have nothing to do.
Doing nothing in the Ministry of Industry every day, never thinking about doing something meaningful?"

"I was thinking, if I could get Xiao Yuanzi a job in the Ministry of Works,

With colleagues like Xiao Yuanzi who are serious, hardworking and, most importantly, exceptionally talented, we can produce something useful every now and then and be praised by you, father.

In order to avoid being compared to a loser by Xiao Yuanzi, others might also be influenced by Xiao Yuanzi and try to make more things like the curved plow under his guidance! Don’t you think so? "

"You want Xiao Yuanzi to enter the court?"

Emperor Xuanwu frowned subconsciously:
"There has never been a precedent of eunuchs entering the court during the Tiansheng Dynasty. Moreover, since ancient times, those who want to be officials must..."

"Father."

Yun Shu imitated the way Yun Chuhuan usually pulled her sleeves, and pulled Emperor Xuanwu's sleeves and shook them:
"For everything in this world, there must be a first one that appears, so that the later ones can have the so-called 'precedent'!

You have seen Xiao Yuanzi's abilities. It would be such a pity if he couldn't go to the Ministry of Industry!
If it really doesn't work, you can let Xiao Yuanzi out of the palace first, let him work in the Ministry of Works without any title or status, and when he has achieved results, you can reward him little by little.

"Everyone has gotten used to it after receiving so many rewards. If you give him a small official position one day, others won't react too much, right?"

"..."

How come this kid becomes more and more spoiled as he grows older?
But what she said does make some sense.

That little Yuanzi... that's all.
The Ministry of Industry has so many useless people in it, so what's wrong with him stuffing someone truly talented in there?
If anyone dares to come to him about this matter, he will ask the other party to make him a magical object more useful than the curved plow!

He raised his hand to pull the sleeve out of her hand, and Emperor Xuanwu coughed softly with his hands behind his back:
"I have already made up my mind about this matter. You just need to prepare what you need to prepare.
There must be no mistakes when we go to court tomorrow!"

"Father, when you said that there must be no mistakes, do you mean that I must not embarrass you, or that I must not cause trouble?"

Yun Shu actually wanted to ask this question when Emperor Xuanwu called him to the Imperial Study Room at noon today.
But at that time, because she was talking about the new business tax to be issued the next day, she forgot about it herself.

When the old story was brought up again, she just remembered that pair of innocent big eyes and looked eagerly at Emperor Xuanwu again.

Emperor Xuanwu: “?”

He was so angry that he laughed on the spot:

"Do you still want to cause trouble for me?"

"I don't want to."

Yun Shu twisted his fingers, looking very honest:
"But if the ministers in your court dislike me and want to cause trouble for me,

I can't just keep my neck down and let them talk, can I?"

"In addition to being the president of the Chamber of Commerce, you are also Princess Sheng An of our Tiansheng Dynasty!"

Knowing that her obedient and docile appearance was completely fake, Emperor Xuanwu still raised his hand and tapped her forehead in annoyance:
"If you become the president of the Chamber of Commerce, you will lose the prestige that a princess should have. You are so useless. I am afraid that I should think carefully about the next president."

"Father said so!"

Yun Shu smiled instantly:

"I will never let you down!"

"You better be!"

Emperor Xuanwu snorted lightly, and at this moment Li Dehai, who had gone out for a while, tiptoed in again.

He walked to Emperor Xuanwu with his body bent, and whispered something,
Immediately, Emperor Xuanwu, who was originally in a very good mood, suddenly had a gloomy look on his face, and even his tone instantly turned cold:
"Go back to the imperial study!"

"Yes."

Emperor Xuanwu's dragon chariot quickly left the Yihe Palace.
Yun Shu didn't know the reason, so he waited until everyone left before asking out of curiosity:
"When did Eunuch Li go out just now?"
