"Sigh! If I had known that these questions were for Yanhuang College's medical school, I wouldn't have sold them so cheaply! "
In the side hall of the Hanging Pot Hall, Lin Zhichang looked at Chang Feng's back and couldn't help but beat his chest and stomp his feet.
Thinking back to when "Chen Wanying" came to ask him for medical advice and claimed that each question would cost him five strings of coins, he felt that he had made a killing. After all, all he did was talk and he got fifty strings of coins in the end. But now that he thought about it, it was a huge loss. After all, "Chen Wanying" only paid fifty strings of coins to buy a place in Yanhuang College's medical school!
With Yanhuang College's current reputation in Tang, if the entrance exam questions could be bought, not to mention fifty strings of coins, even if it was five thousand strings of coins, people would buy it!
But since the matter had already passed, Lin Zhichang knew that it was useless to regret it. But when he thought of Tang Yuan who had slipped away, his heart ached!
"I just don't know which big family that Chen Wanying is from. She was so resourceful that she could get Yanhuang College's medical school's entrance exam questions a day in advance. I heard that the Turkic State Preceptor tried to sneak into the college to steal books but failed. Could it be that the power behind this Chen Wanying is even more terrifying than the Turkic State Preceptor?"
Apart from his heartache, Lin Zhichang also couldn't help but be curious about the identity of Chen Wanying who came to the Hanging Pot Hall that day. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Chen Wanying's identity was not simple. He felt that he knew a big secret, but he didn't dare to say it out because he was afraid that he would be killed!
After all, Lin Zhichang was the imperial physician of the Sui Dynasty. He knew that those with real power could kill someone like him, who had no background, as easily as killing an ant!
But this old man didn't know that this so-called Chen Wanying didn't have any background at all, let alone someone from a big family!
…
The person that Lin Zhichang was thinking about was chatting with her sister, Chen Shuoyu, in the small courtyard that they rented. When she and her sister first came to Chang 'an, they lived in the City God Temple because they didn't have money at that time. After Chen Shuoyu "swindled" a hundred strings of coins from Li Tai, Chen Shuoyu rented a vacant farmhouse in Lantian County as a temporary shelter for them in the capital!
"Sis! Should we wake up early tomorrow morning and go to Yanhuang College to look at the rankings? "
"Yeah! What? Xiao Yu, you're going too? "
"Oh! Of course I'm going! I want to see my sister get into Yanhuang College with my own eyes! "
"Haha! Since you want to go, then go! But don't oversleep tomorrow! "
"I won't! Oh, right! Sister! You've just washed all the clothes we bought. What should we wear to the Academy tomorrow? "
At this moment, Chen Shuoyu pointed at the colorful dresses hanging in the courtyard and frowned at Chen Shuozhen.
Those clothes were the high-quality clothes that they had spent a lot of money to buy in order to "get an answer" from Lin Zhichang.
Chen Shuozhen said without thinking, "What else can I wear? Wearing what we're wearing? "
"Ah? Are we going to wear what we're wearing now? "
Hearing this, Chen Shuoyu looked at the rough linen clothes that he and Chen Shuozhen were wearing, which were patched up like beggars' clothes, and was instantly dumbfounded.
"What? Xiao Yu, you've been living a life of luxury for a few days. Now you can't live a hard life ~? "
Chen Shuozhen couldn't help but tease.
"Sister! I … I'm not! "
Chen Shuoyu hurriedly said, "I just think that tomorrow is a big day for you to get into Yanhuang College. We should wear something nice! Dad and Mom will be very happy for you if they see you in heaven! "
Hearing Chen Shuoyu mention her late parents, Chen Shuoyu's heart softened. She went forward and patted Xiao Yu's head, then said softly,
"Silly girl, getting into Yanhuang College is just the beginning. We sisters will live a better life in the future!"
After pausing, Chen Shuozhen smiled playfully and said, "But let's not wear the clothes that we bought before. Are you afraid that the people from Hanging Pot Hall won't recognize us ~?"
"Hanging Pot Hall? Sister, what do you mean by that? How can people from Hanging Pot Hall go to Yanhuang College ~? "
Chen Shuoyu was very confused.
Chen Shuozhen waved her hand and said, "Why do you ask so many questions? Anyway, for the time being, we can't wear those clothes out! Hou … Marquis has helped us so much. We can't give him any trouble! "
"Oh! Yes! Sister! "
Chen Shuoyu nodded, but she didn't quite understand.
…
On the other side, after Li Zexuan brought Little Yu 'er to the workshop, Li Zexuan went directly to the editorial department of Datang Daily, while Li Zexuan went to the research base of the "trump card project" in the depths of the workshop.
Inside, you could see the busy figures of Yanhuang College's teachers and students everywhere. They were all carefully selected Yanhuang College's teachers and students who were proficient in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. Everyone else in the college was on summer vacation, so they took advantage of the summer vacation to devote themselves to the research of the college's "trump card project"!
"Yamachō, you're here ~!"
After passing through two courtyards, Li Zexuan bumped into a student, and this student looked very familiar.
"Li Yan? You didn't go back during the summer vacation? "
Li Zexuan was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses.
That's right, the student in front of him was Li Chunfeng's son, Li Yan. Last year, this kid ranked in the top five in the entrance exam of Yanhuang College!
Of course, it wasn't just the entrance exam. This child was also one of the top students in the academy's midterm and final exams. Unlike Bruiser, who was partial to his subjects, this child excelled in all of them, regardless of whether it was Classics, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, or Geography. He could be considered to have a balanced development!
At this time, Li Yan replied with a smile, "I'm going back to Yamachō. My family lives in Chang 'an, so I can go back whenever I want. But I think it's more meaningful to work on the college's" trump card project "in the workshop than to go back home! Besides, my father lives in the college now, so it doesn't make a difference whether he goes back home or not! "
"Haha! You child! "
Li Zexuan smiled happily. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he asked, "Oh, right, what has your father been busy with recently?"
Li Yan thought for a moment and replied, "I don't know the specifics, but my father seems to be very confused recently …"
At this point, Li Yan seemed to have something to say.
Li Zexuan asked curiously, "Confused? Taoist Li is so knowledgeable, but you also have times when you're confused? "
Li Yan cupped his hands and said, "Yamachō is too kind! In fact, my father has been sorting out the orbits of other planets near the Earth through the Academy's telescope in recent months. He found that the orbits of these planets follow a certain pattern, but he hasn't completely found out what the pattern is. Also, are these patterns related to the Heavenly Axiom recorded in the Taoist classics? My father has been very confused! "
When Li Zexuan heard this, he immediately understood. Li Chunfeng had finally walked into the "Hu Tong Alley". There was going to be a collision between science and metaphysics!
"Haha! It seems like Taoist Li has gained a lot in the past six months! "
Li Zexuan came back to his senses and patted Li Yan's shoulder. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, your father is only at a dead end for now. When he really figures out these problems, he will be the most powerful person in Taoism in the past thousands of years!"
Li Zexuan could not provide any substantial help to Li Chunfeng's confusion. It was hard to tell whether science and metaphysics were mutually exclusive, or if there was something in each of them. Especially after he had somehow transmigrated from the modern world to the Tang Dynasty, it was even harder for him to figure it out.
Perhaps metaphysics was the end of science?
This question could only be left to Li Chunfeng to figure it out himself!
"Where's Qingque?"
Suddenly, Li Zexuan recalled the purpose of his visit today, so he asked.
Li Yan was still in shock from Li Zexuan's words. When he heard Li Zexuan's question, he subconsciously pointed to a courtyard in the north and said, "Let's go back to Yamachō. Qingque should still be doing experiments there!"
"Okay! Go ahead and do your work! "
Li Zexuan patted Li Yan's shoulder and turned to walk towards the courtyard.
… …..
"Hey, hey, hey! Test! Test! "
As soon as Li Zexuan arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, he heard Fatty's voice. He was slightly surprised because there was no one around him!
However, as a modern person, Li Zexuan would not be frightened by this. He quickly found the source of the sound. There was a square wooden box hanging on the wall in front of him. There were many small round holes on the wooden box!
"Is this … a loudspeaker?"
Li Zexuan was surprised. It was obvious that this was a sound transmission device. Li Tai used a wire to transmit sound from inside the courtyard to outside.
"Qingque, I can hear it from outside! And I can hear it very clearly! "
Inside the courtyard, someone shouted into the house.
"Is that Sun Zifan?"
Li Zexuan hurriedly stepped into the courtyard and saw Sun Zifan facing the room with his back to him.
"What are you guys doing?"
Li Zexuan could not help but ask.
"Ah! Yamachō, you're here! "
Sun Zifan turned around and saw Li Zexuan. He quickly greeted him warmly and said with a smile, "Yamachō, Qingque wants to make a set of communicators for the academy before going to Taiyuan. Now we are doing experiments in the workshop!"
"Communicators? What's that? "
Li Zexuan frowned. Right at this moment, Qin Huaiyu ran in while gasping for breath, and then he said loudly, "Zifan, quickly tell Qingque that she can hear from the outer court!"
