After coming out of the palace, Wu Shu slumped directly in the carriage. This trip to the palace brought too much pressure to her.
The empress who used to be very amiable in Zixiao Temple seemed to have completely changed. Her whole body was filled with an attractive aura, and every word and deed seemed to contain profound meaning.
I, who usually thought I was very smart, was at a loss in front of her and was flattened and rounded, leaving no room for resistance.
If I hadn't remembered Chen Jingke's advice, I wouldn't have known whether I could have passed the test smoothly.
It was the experience just now that made her realize that she was not as powerful as she had imagined. Especially compared to the real big shots, she was as immature as a blank piece of paper.
The reason why things went so smoothly in the past was just because those big shots didn't share the same level of experience as Zixiaoguan for the sake of the two real people.
She must be humble and not complacent in the future, she reminded herself secretly.
Then she thought of her little real person, and a few words of advice helped her get through the difficulties. It was really smart.
He just put all his mind into studying knowledge and disdained intrigues, otherwise he would be very powerful.
And...what is the secret that makes the Queen so nervous?
After staying in Zixiao for so long, why has she never discovered it? Those people are really good at hiding.
You must interrogate him carefully when you go back to find out what he is hiding.
Thinking of this, I went all the way back to Zixiao Temple, asked where Chen Jingke was, and went to find him.
When Chen Jingke heard that she was back, he quickly came over to greet her. He asked from afar, "Are you okay?"
Seeing him, Wu Shu's heart, which was still a little frightened, immediately calmed down and said: "No, as you expected, the empress told me a few things and then she asked me to come back."
Chen Jingke stepped forward and took her hand to his small courtyard. Yi Nu and Yuzhu quickly prepared tea and then stayed away.
After sitting down in the pavilion, Chen Jingke said, "What did my aunt ask you?"
Wu Shu seemed to have remembered something interesting, covered his mouth and chuckled, saying: "Guess."
Chen Jingke thought for a while and said: "I can only guess that it may be related to some secrets, but I don't know anything else. Just tell me directly."
Wu Shu glanced at him and said, "Sure enough, there is a secret you are hiding from me. Humph, it turns out you always treat me as an outsider."
Chen Jingke hurriedly coaxed: "Oh, no, no, it's just that there are some things that I don't know how to explain. Since you are in charge of Zixiao Temple, you will gradually know these secrets."
Wu Shu shook his hand and said reluctantly: "Then tell me a secret first, and I will see how important it is."
Half of Chen Jingke's body went numb, and he said: "Okay, okay, let me tell you something, do you know that the queen is sick?"
Wu Shu said doubtfully: "I know, I was cured by the master later." Is there any secret in this?
Chen Jingke said: "I cured him."
"Ah?" Wu Shu said in surprise: "You? How... is this possible?"
Chen Jingke said seriously: "Every word that follows is a secret and cannot be revealed to anyone."
Wu Shu nodded quickly and said, "I know, and I will never tell anyone."
Chen Jingke then recounted the situation at that time, excluding some of the plot: "...So, I was actually the one who cured the empress's illness. I only claimed that it was Master who cured her for the sake of confidentiality."
Wu Shu felt like he was listening to a book from heaven. This was truly incredible.
If he hadn't said it, she would have thought he was making up a story, a bad story with no logic at all.
No, she quickly paid attention to another important point and said anxiously: "Your medicine was given to the empress, then you..."
Chen Jingke consoled him: "Don't worry, there is more than one medicine to treat asthma. I happen to remember some prescriptions."
"Master prepared the medicine based on these prescriptions, and now my wife and I are taking them... Look, I'm not fine at all."
"Besides, asthma can be cured before the age of fourteen. Master is working on a prescription to cure my disease before I turn fourteen."
"Now do you know how much your presence has helped us?"
There are also people in the palace, at least Li Lizhi and Xiao Sizi, who have asthma and need timely treatment. Especially Xiao Sizi has the possibility of being cured...
In addition to asthma, there is also high blood pressure, which is even more serious and directly threatens the life safety of the entire royal family.
For such a serious disease, the only one in the palace who could trust, dare to trust and was willing to believe it was Sun Simiao, the King of Medicine.
This is also one of the important reasons why the royal family did not oppose Wu Shu.
It was a unanimous decision by everyone to quickly free Sun Simiao from his secular affairs and let him concentrate on studying medical skills.
Wu Shu only felt her scalp numb. She didn't expect this secret to be so shocking, let alone that her marriage would be involved in such a secret.
Then she felt a little excited inside, and she liked days like this.
My little real person is indeed extraordinary, I didn’t misjudge the person.
She still had many doubts in her mind. Where did Chen Jingke come from? How powerful must his family be to be able to research so many magical things?
However, she was smart enough not to ask further questions. He would definitely tell her what she could tell, and asking too many questions about what she couldn't tell would only affect the relationship between the two.
After finishing speaking, Chen Jingke smiled and said: "How about it, is this secret big enough?"
Seeing his proud look, Wu Shu pursed his lips. This little real man loved to show off, and this time he got what he wanted.
In order to cooperate with him, she deliberately said delicately: "Yes, this secret is too big. I really didn't expect you to be so powerful."
Chen Jingke couldn't help but trembled. Good guy, Sister Wu can kill people when she is charming.
The two talked about her experience of entering the palace.
Wu Shu took advantage of the situation and asked the question in his heart, how on earth did he bribe Sun Fucai and so many attendants in the palace?
Chen Jingke sighed and said: "I didn't do anything. I just treated them as ordinary people. Over time, that's how it became."
Wu Shu was silent, and after a long time he said: "You gave them dignity."
The two chatted for a while and exchanged details.
It was inevitable that he would talk about his affair with women, which made Chen Jingke so embarrassed that he could not hold his head up. He repeatedly promised that having them was enough and he would never touch other women in the future.
The two of them chatted until lunch, then separated and went about their own business.
Wu Shu continued to lead everyone to count the property in the temple, and this time everyone was more respectful towards her.
Everyone knew that Chen Jingke was going to marry Princess Jinyang, and Wu Shu had to pass the palace test if he wanted to marry into Zixiaoguan. Many people were waiting to see her joke in private.
However, this time she entered the palace and came out with all her hair and tail, completely shattering some people's illusions, and no one dared to disrespect her anymore.
Chen Jingke did not go with him, but stayed in the hospital to continue writing new teaching materials.
He broadly divided all subjects into four categories: Chinese, mathematics, physics, and history.
Chinese is the basis of all subjects; mathematics is the basis of science; physics is the collective name of the entire science and engineering system; needless to say, history, reading history makes people wise.
He also thought about developing Chinese, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, geography, and even logic and psychology according to the division of subjects in his previous life.
But when I started writing the textbook, I realized that things were not that simple.
Take chemistry as an example. Without materials and equipment, how can we write this textbook?
Are you telling your children that mixing nitrate, charcoal, and sulfur in a certain proportion and igniting them will cause an explosion? Is this called chemistry?
Not to mention geography and geology, we cannot tell these children that the rate of soil formation by nature is one millimeter every ten years, and the rate of soil erosion caused by human agricultural civilization is one millimeter per year.
So there is no turning back from the day agricultural civilization was born. Either it breaks through agricultural civilization and moves towards a higher civilization, or the civilization is destroyed?
Another reason is that most of his knowledge has been returned to the teacher so long after he graduated, so it is difficult to independently compile a systematic teaching material.
In the end, I chose to classify chemistry, biology, and geography knowledge into physics, and then slowly separate them when the conditions are met.
This idea is based on the natural subjects of later primary schools. It mixes relatively simple and easy-to-understand things in science and engineering to provide students with enlightenment.
Of course, the teaching materials he compiled must be much more profound than those for primary schools.
As for logic and psychology... let's forget it for now. If this thing comes out and has too much influence, we'll have to wait and deal with it later.
The difficulty of writing these four textbooks is also different.
It is best to compile Chinese textbooks, with pinyin letters in the front. This has been completed a long time ago, so you can just take it and use it.
There is nothing unusual about the following content. It just selects a few classic excerpts from hundreds of classics for everyone to learn from.
The second is history, and you can even use "A Brief History of China" directly for this.
Then mathematics is relatively easy to write. The beginning is the new mathematical symbols. This is also written in advance and can be moved over directly.
Some examples are excerpted from the Nine Classics of Arithmeticology, and some were compiled by Chen Jingke himself.
For students who have passed through the compulsory education assembly line, it is not easy to write a few sample questions.
Which pool is filled with water at the same time; when Xiao Ming and Xiao Hua meet each other when running, when do they catch up with each other, etc.
The real trouble is physics, which has nothing to learn from and relies solely on his own memories.
We should also consider the level of understanding of science subjects in the current era, and we should not write textbooks that are too abstruse. We should not only let them understand them, but also play a guiding role in them.
One word, difficult.
So he has been compiling this physics book for several months, and it has not been completed yet.
But it's coming soon. He estimates that it will be almost done in another half month.
In addition to the content, he also decided to make a bold attempt, which was to change all books to horizontal printing.
Well, the point of turning from back to front has not changed, but the vertical arrangement has been changed to horizontal.
It’s not that it has to be aligned with the previous life or anything, but science and engineering books must be printed horizontally.
But if we only change the science and engineering subjects to horizontal format, and continue to use vertical format for liberal arts subjects, it will appear inconsistent, so we might as well change them all.
It will be used internally within Zixiaoguan first. As for whether the outside world is willing to accept it, that is up to them. Anyway, when they study science and engineering in the future, they will have the ability not to use horizontal books.
In the afternoon, an unknown convoy delivered dozens of large boxes.
Moved to the warehouse and opened it, it was full of silks and satins, rare treasures, and the title deeds to more than a dozen shops and two manors.
No need to ask, the palace sent it as a betrothal gift.
The pair of emperors and empresses still don't want to embarrass their daughters.
