Chapter 376: Lord Liu’s stance suddenly changed?

Chapter 376: Lord Liu’s stance suddenly changed?
The distance between the palace gate and the imperial study was not too far, and Lord Liu and his companions soon appeared in front of Emperor Xuanwu and Yun Shu.

"Your Majesty, long live your Majesty!
May Your Highness, live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!"

"No gift."

Perhaps he thought about how his daughter had just scolded these people with words that were not very hurtful but very insulting, so he was so angry that he could not wait any longer and turned back to complain to him.

Although Emperor Xuanwu did not feel guilty, his tone subconsciously softened a little:
"I wonder why you, my dear ministers, have come to me with such great force?"

"His Majesty!"

Some people who are more impulsive will want to complain immediately after hearing this.
As a result, as soon as she looked up, before she could say anything, she was stunned by the books on Yun Shu's desk that had almost formed a wall, completely blocking her out.

"Your Highness, what is this?"

"Ok?"

Hearing someone mention him, Yun Shu raised his eyes from inside the "wall":

"what happened?"

"Your Highness, these books..."

"Oh, you're talking about that!"

Yun Shu casually raised a book as if waking up from a dream, and deliberately let the ministers see the words written on the cover:
"After I quelled the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms and returned victorious, my father taught me to be modest and not to be conceited.

After all, the new weapon developed based on chemical knowledge is not difficult to manufacture, and this knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry is what I got from overseas before.

If I can make it, people in overseas countries can naturally make it as well.

I deeply agree with this.

It happened that it was close to New Year's Eve these few days, and there were fewer memorials to read every day. I finally had some free time, so I thought about learning as much knowledge as possible in mathematics, physics and chemistry.

Let’s see if we can come up with some more powerful weapons.

After all, there are not many talents in this area in our Tiansheng Dynasty, and no one is willing to learn it!"

Ministers: "..."

My goodness, they haven't even started talking yet and His Highness has already stopped them from talking?
They were all a bunch of old foxes who had been immersed in the court for a long time. Even though they were too angry to think before, they came to their senses at this time and realized clearly that all this was arranged by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess or even His Majesty.

Originally, I wanted to file a complaint, or even ask Emperor Xuanwu to punish the writer, but that was naturally out of the question.

But this large group of people came to the palace to ask for an audience, but in the end they said nothing...

Doesn't that make them look stupid?
A dozen ministers looked at each other in bewilderment. Finally, Lord Du stepped forward and bowed, saying:
"Your Highness, in fact, we came to the palace to ask for an audience today because we read the serial article titled "Great Power"."

"The Great Power?"

Yun Shu raised an eyebrow and pretended not to know:
“What’s wrong with this article?”

"Your Highness, this article emphasizes the importance of mathematics, physics and chemistry, and also mentions a new weapon."

When Lord Du said this, he couldn't help but look up at Yun Shu:

"This new weapon was very similar to a slingshot, but instead of throwing stones it threw cannonballs.

It can throw shells directly a mile or two away, allowing the shells to explode precisely in the enemy camp. "

"hiss……"

Yun Shu seemed to be enlightened, and suddenly understood:
"That's a good idea. I'll think about it in this direction first!"

"...Your Highness, do you mean that this new weapon is really feasible?"

Seeing that Yun Shu did not intend to admit that she wrote "Great Power", Lord Du was tactful and did not point it out. He just asked with a little excitement:
"How easy is it to make this new weapon?" "It hasn't even been made yet, how do I know if it's easy?"

Yun Shu glanced at him speechlessly:
“But it’s definitely more difficult than what we have now.

And theoretically speaking, as long as someone can spend dozens or hundreds of years specializing in this field,

maybe……"

She raised her eyes with a look of longing:
"Maybe one day, we can just move our fingers here in Shengjing City and wipe out a country that wants to invade our territory without any soldiers."

"How can this be!"

Among the ministers, someone exclaimed:
“Isn’t that divine power?”

"Divine power?"

Yun Shu singled out these two words and repeated them, then shook his head with a smile:

"Indeed, when my new weapon was first used on the battlefield, it was also said to be the power of a god."

"..."

What an irrefutable statement!

The ministers fell silent again. They obviously had a lot to say, but when they got to their lips, they couldn't utter a single word.

After a while, Yun Shu spoke first, breaking the silence:
"So, you all came here to ask me this question?"

"Of course... not."

Seeing that the other ministers standing nearby were still not making any move,

Lord Liu made up his mind and took a brave step forward as if he was ready to sacrifice himself:
"I, your Majesty, would like to ask you and Your Highness the Princess to pay attention to the development of mathematics, physics and chemistry and include them in the scope of the imperial examinations!"

As soon as Lord Liu finished speaking, the ministers who were still pretending to be indifferent suddenly couldn't hold back any longer.

One by one, they either turned their heads and glared at Lord Liu, or questioned Lord Liu in a low voice with gritted teeth.

Some even couldn't hold back and directly raised their objections:

"The imperial examination is no joke. Many scholars in the world study hard for decades just to get their names on the list.
If we hastily add the three subjects of mathematics, physics and chemistry, which are little known to everyone, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among students! "

"But this is the fastest way to develop the three subjects of mathematics, physics and chemistry!"

Lord Liu argued:
“It is important to learn the original contents of the imperial examination, but aren’t mathematics, physics and chemistry important?

I remember that Mr. Zhang was also a top scholar in the imperial examination. May I ask Mr. Zhang, when the bombs come, can you block them with the book you read?"

"You are using strong words to make sense!"

Mr. Zhang was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick:

"I am a civil official, not a military commander. If a cannonball comes, it is not my turn to block it!"

"you……"

"Alright, alright! My two adults, please stop arguing!"

Yun Shu sat behind the "book wall" and waited until the two of them were arguing loudly before he slowly began to persuade them:
"In fact, it's not impossible to compromise on this matter. The regular imperial examinations should be conducted in the same way as before.
Can't we just add a separate examination in mathematics, physics and chemistry to be conducted simultaneously with the regular imperial examinations?

This will not only not affect students who take the regular imperial examinations, but will also help the court better select the talents it needs.”
