"What did Deputy Prefect Ren talk about today?" During dinner, Tong Zhengye casually asked Tong Lan. He was really curious about what Ren Baqian would talk about.
In his heart, Ren Baqian had a lot of good stuff. Whether it was the cement, red bricks, glass factory, or solar furnace, they were all very useful. Furthermore, he took them out casually. No one knew how many things he had in his stomach.
At the very least, he didn't know about the colorful things that he saw in Yangxin Palace Hall. There were also the two floor lamps of the empress, the sofa in Yangxin Palace Hall, the computer that could emit sound, and the ice that was made from ice. There were simply too many of them.
This was also the reason why he sent his favorite granddaughter to Yangxin Palace Hall.
"I don't know. He talked a lot and was very long-winded." Tong Lan curled her lips. She really didn't understand many of the things that Ren Baqian talked about today. However, how could she ask since no one asked? She was a genius!
"Tell me, what did he talk about?" Tong Zhengye asked again.
"He said that they are all good-for-nothings. If they go home, they can only be kept as pets for the rest of their lives. Studying at the academy is their only chance." Tong Lan consciously excluded herself from the conversation.
"There was also an idiot who wasn't convinced. In the end, that good-for-nothing used a stick to shoot a few things at him and beat him to the ground. Then, he was chased out." Tong Lan giggled again.
Tong Zhengye nodded his head slightly. Ren Baqian's words were correct in some aspects. Those who weren't talented weren't valued at home. They couldn't advance in their cultivation and wouldn't be able to achieve anything in the future. They could only take the monthly allowance to produce offspring.
"He also said that he wanted to teach us four subjects and teach us how to read. It's different from before," Tong Lan continued.
"Oh? How different? "Tong Zhengye was very interested and asked.
The surrounding people didn't say anything as they listened to the conversation between the adult and the child. They were also very interested.
At least when Tong Zhengye was in the residence, he praised Ren Baqian a few times. This caused the people in the Tong residence to view Ren Baqian differently from the general view of the outside world.
"He said that the language of Great Xia that we used in the past is too cumbersome. He wants to teach us a simpler language that is easier to spread." Tong Lan repeated Ren Baqian's words about how many people could read the news.
"From national affairs to your fight with Mr. Qin at the brothel last night." Tong Lan told him everything in full detail, and the entire hall quietened down instantly. There was dead silence.
Everyone had a strange look on their faces.
"Cough cough!" Tong Zhengye coughed. Soon after, he thought about the news that Ren Baqian mentioned. However, it didn't make much sense no matter how he thought about it. It was similar to a notice board.
"What else?" Tong Zhenye continued to ask.
"There are also three subjects: mathematics, physics, and chemistry. He said that physics is the study of the structure and laws of the world, and chemistry is the study of the composition of the world and the transformation of new substances. These two subjects are called natural sciences."
Tong Zhenye's expression immediately turned serious after hearing what Tong Lan said.
Tong Lan didn't know what this meant, but she immediately sensed some problems. According to these words, he was clearly talking about "the way of all living things in the world and nature?" Didn't this mean that he was talking about all the principles in the world?
If that was the case, then what Ren Baqian said was rather shocking.
But was what he said true? What did he say? Tong Zhenye pondered for a moment and said, "Remember what he said every day and bring it back for grandpa to see."
"Oh!" Tong Lan pouted and replied. It was too troublesome for her to remember.
She felt that she was in big trouble.
On this day, there were many people who had the same conversation. Many of them didn't care about what Ren Baqian said at first, but after listening to others, they paid attention.
After all, Ren Baqian's words were too scary. Studying the structure of the world, its composition, laws, and the transformation of new substances. No matter how they heard it, it wasn't an ordinary thing. The way of all living things in the world and nature. Many people immediately thought of the legendary way of heaven.
How could they not care about it?
…
At this moment, the empress was curled up on the sofa. Ren Baqian was sitting on a small stool outside the courtyard of Yangxin Palace Hall. There was a bonfire in front of him and a rack on top of it.
Ren Baqian was roasting a leg of lamb. One hand was shaking the stick while the other hand was cutting the leg of lamb.
In the past, Ren Baqian always thought that there was nothing that couldn't be solved with a barbecue. If there was, then he would have two.
However, there weren't any lamb skewers here. He could only rely on himself.
He slowly roasted a lamb for two hours. The smell of the roasted meat had already spread to Yangxin Palace Hall. The empress sniffed, turned her head to look in the direction of the main hall's entrance, and continued to watch a television series.
Just when the empress's patience was about to run out, Ren Baqian came in with a basin. It was emitting an extremely fragrant barbecue aroma that made people salivate.
As for the guards outside Yangxin Palace Hall, they had a look of hidden bitterness on their faces. That person had been roasting meat under their noses for more than two hours. The two of them had been smelling the aroma for more than two hours. It was simply a kind of torture.
Ren Baqian and the empress sat opposite each other at a small table. Ren Baqian poured a cup of wine for the empress and a cup for himself.
It definitely wouldn't do to eat barbecue without wine.
There were also two plates of fruits at the side so that the roasted meat wouldn't be too greasy.
The empress stuffed two big pieces of meat into her stomach and drank a cup of wine before asking casually,
"I heard that something happened on the first day of school?"
The empress already knew about this news, but she only asked about it now.
"An uncut jade can't be useful, and an uncut person can't be straight. I'll teach them a lesson first so that they can be disciplined in the future." Ren Baqian smiled casually. Even though those guys weren't very talented, they weren't honest. If he didn't suppress them from the start, it would be difficult to discipline them in the future.
"Oh!" The empress nodded her head.
"I reckon that someone will complain about us tomorrow!" Ren Baqian continued.
"Hmph!" The empress snorted coldly, "How dare they!"
Ren Baqian gave her a thumbs up. I like this domineering style of yours.
What was a backer? This was it. Regardless of whether what he did was right or wrong, anyone who dared to raise an opinion would be beaten up.
"I heard that you are going to talk about the principles of heaven and earth. I'm very happy." Even though the empress's tone was flat, there was still a hint of happiness in her words.
This was because she knew that what Ren Baqian was going to talk about could really advance the development of Dayao, was the foundation of that world, and was truly important.
She was very happy that Ren Baqian was willing to teach these things to others.
This was because she was the empress of Dayao, and she would never only think about one family or one place.
"I have said before that I will make Dayao what you want it to be." Ren Baqian raised his cup from a distance and drank it.
The empress's eyes curved when she heard this.
Ren Baqian took out a blue flower from his sleeve and placed it on the table, "I see that many flowers have withered recently, but only this flower has been blooming all along. I feel that it is like you, it will never wither. When other flowers bloom, it will overshadow the others. When other flowers wither, it stands out. "
The empress picked up the flower and looked at it. Then, she pinned it on her clothes and said faintly, "This flower's name is Qingyang. It will only wither during the cloudy season before it blooms again."
"When it withers, even the heavens can't bear to part with it, so they shed tears. And when it blooms again, the heavens will also show their happiness, "Ren Baqian continued the empress's words.
He gave himself a thumbs up in his heart. Coaxing a girlfriend required strength.
Seeing the empress wrinkle her nose, Ren Baqian knew that she was very happy. This was a small action of hers.
Wrinkling her nose meant that she was in a good mood and very cheerful. And raising her eyebrows meant that she wanted to kill someone.
If the empress was happy, he would also be very happy. Emotions were contagious.
Whether it was happiness or sadness.
Looking at that exquisite face, which was still full of heroic spirit after letting go of her coldness, but also had a unique charm that was unique to her, Ren Baqian felt that if he could live for 200 years, he would definitely coax her for 176 years.
Those 24 years were the days before him.
