The time of the night passed in the blink of an eye, early in the morning, the Forbidden City.

The warm sunlight shining on people's bodies made people feel more comfortable, and Tang Shunzhi was just alone, walking on the unusually smooth stone road in the Forbidden City.

At this moment, his eyes were bloodshot, his face was full of tiredness that could not be concealed, and the whole person couldn't stop yawning, even if a colleague greeted him, he didn't have time to care.

Because his whole mind was on the arithmetic textbook that had been compiled.

Since the last time Jiajing asked him to delete some of the content and make the arithmetic textbook easier to understand, Tang Shunzhi adopted Jiajing's suggestion, and after going back, he worked day and night to revise the content of the textbook.

Tang Shunzhi deleted all the contents of the arithmetic textbook about circumcision, and replaced it with more easy-to-understand content that was biased towards solving practical problems.

"Alas, I don't know that Your Majesty is not satisfied with this version of the arithmetic textbook!"

Tang Shunzhi thought so, and immediately quickened the pace of his feet, he wanted to go to the Inspectorate before officially meeting His Majesty, and show his face.

The Inspectorate has not changed much as before, and in the duty room of the Inspectorate, at this moment, there are already officials sitting in their positions and beginning to deal with the few impeachment recitals.

It is worth mentioning that since the last incident of the official came to an end, it has been rare for the government and the opposition to calm down.

Correspondingly, the Inspectorate has become extremely idle, in recent days, the daily routine of the Inspectorate is to be on duty on time, and then chat about gossip, drink tea, and wait quietly for the next duty.

Tang Shunzhi came to the duty room, and after greeting a few familiar colleagues, he sat down in his place.

At this moment, I saw Zhao Zhenji walking in with his hands behind his back, and the officials in the room were all silent when they saw this, and immediately pretended to deal with the affairs at hand.

After Zhao Zhenji looked around, he quickly withdrew his gaze, and just as he was about to leave, he happened to see Tang Shunzhi's unusually haggard face, and suddenly became interested, and immediately commanded.

"Tang Shunzhi, come over with this official!"

"Yes, sir!"

Facing the complicated gaze of his colleagues, Tang Shunzhi got up from his chair, followed Zhao Zhenji's footsteps, and walked out of the duty room.

After the two walked out of the duty room, Tang Shunzhi bowed to the ground and asked Zhao Zhenji.

"Do you dare to ask your lord what is the matter with the next official?"

Zhao Zhenji heard Tang Shunzhi's words, and after looking him up and down, he spoke unhurriedly.

"It's okay, the official just asked in passing, didn't His Majesty ask you to be responsible for compiling arithmetic textbooks before, how did you compile them?"

Faced with the inquiry of his immediate boss Zhao Zhenji, Tang Shunzhi did not dare to hide it in the slightest, and after organizing the language in his mind, he immediately informed the current progress truthfully.

"Your Excellency, the latest edition of the arithmetic textbook has been compiled, and the lower officials are preparing to meet Your Majesty later!"

When Zhao Zhenji heard this, he nodded imperceptibly, and then commanded.

"Now that the arithmetic textbook has been compiled, without further ado, let's go now!"

Before this, Tang Shunzhi obviously didn't expect that Zhao Zhenji deliberately called him out of the duty room, just to tell him about it, and then, I saw him come back to his senses and respond tremblingly.

"Yes...... Yes, my lord, I will go now! ”

Immediately afterwards, after Tang Shunzhi saluted Zhao Zhenji respectfully, he immediately embarked on the road to the Qianqing Palace.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhenji withdrew his gaze from Tang Shunzhi's body, chuckled, and muttered to himself silently.

"Heh, this Tang Shunzhi, may he take my place?"

……

At this moment, in the Qianqing Palace, Jiajing was sitting cross-legged on the futon, his eyes seemed to be closed.

The Spirit Gathering Array, which includes the entire Qianqing Palace, automatically operates, absorbing all the spiritual energy within a radius of a hundred miles to the Qianqing Palace.

Soon, the abundance of spiritual energy in the Qianqing Palace was greatly improved, and the one qi technique practiced by Jiajing automatically operated, automatically absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy into the body.

After the surrounding aura was absorbed into Jiajing's body, it passed through the route of the exercises, and after passing through the meridians along the way, it finally submerged into Jiajing's dantian.

Since entering the late stage of Qi training, Jiajing's cultivation speed has been several times faster than before, so the aura that has been wrapped around the Qianqing Palace has been quickly absorbed by Jiajing.

After this, Jiajing took a general perception of the condition of his body, and found that the mana increased in the dantian was very small, and even reached a negligible level.

"Alas, at this rate, when will I be able to build a foundation!"

Immediately, I saw Jiajing suppress all the chaotic thoughts in his heart, withdraw from the cultivation state, and slowly get up from the futon and sit back on the dragon chair.

"Why don't I find a time to refine a flying sword, with my current strength, it should be more than enough!"

I don't know how long time has passed, just when Jiajing was still immersed in a beautiful reverie, Lu Fang's voice came from outside the Qianqing Palace.

"Your Majesty, the slave has something important to report!"

"Well, come in!"

Soon after Jiajing's words fell, only to hear a 'squeak', Lu Fang entered the Qianqing Palace with silent steps.

Seeing this, Jiajing turned his gaze to Lu Fang and asked.

"Lu Fang, do you have anything to do with me?"

When Lu Fang heard this, his expression immediately turned grim, and he said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, Tang Shunzhi is out asking to see him, and he said that he has finished compiling the arithmetic textbook!"

When Jiajing heard this, the expression on his face did not change much, he just waved his hand and commanded.

"Well, I know, let him in!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

At this moment, Tang Shunzhi looked at the Qianqing Palace close at hand, and his heart was extremely worried, and he couldn't help but start thinking about it.

At that moment, he heard a shrill voice interrupt his thoughts.

"Xuan Tang Shun's Audience!"

When Tang Shunzhi heard this, he immediately gathered his mind, took a steady step, and stepped on the stairs of the Qianqing Palace.

After entering the Qianqing Palace, Tang Shunzhi looked at Jiajing who was sitting on the dragon chair, and Lu Fang, who was waiting beside Jiajing, knelt on the ground with a plop and said in a deep voice.

"Weichen knocks to see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

When Jiajing heard this, he waved his hand quite casually and commanded.

"Well, get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After getting Jiajing's consent, Tang Shunzhi slowly got up from the ground.

At this moment, I saw Jiajing turn his gaze to Tang Shunzhi and asked.

"I heard that you have finished compiling a new edition of the arithmetic textbook?"

When Tang Shunzhi heard this, he immediately responded without thinking.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Wechen has finished compiling the new edition of the arithmetic textbook!"

Tang Shunzhi said, and then took out the arithmetic textbook that had been prepared from his sleeve and held it high above his head.

Seeing this, Lu Fang, who was waiting beside Jiajing, immediately stepped forward, took the arithmetic textbook from Tang Shunzhi's hand, and respectfully handed it over to Jiajing.

"Your Majesty!"

"Hmm."

After that, I saw Jiajing take the arithmetic textbook from Lu Fang's hand and began to browse carefully.

The above content is much different from the previous one, the content of the first chapter is still simple addition and subtraction, and the second chapter begins, involving the ninety-nine multiplication table, as well as some larger multiplication and division.

After chapter 3, the original content of circumcision has been completely removed, and it has been replaced by something that is more understandable and biased towards solving practical problems.

Soon, Jiajing finished browsing the newly compiled arithmetic textbook, and immediately, I saw Jiajing put it aside, turned his eyes to Tang Shunzhi, and said encouragingly.

"Well, Tang Shunzhi, you have done a good job in this matter, I have decided, just use this version of the arithmetic textbook!"

"I will print this edition of the arithmetic textbook in large quantities and then use it in next year's imperial examination!"

When Tang Shunzhi heard this, his heart was full of indescribable excitement, and he bowed three times solemnly, and said in a deep voice.

"Thank you for your grace, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

There is no better news for Tang Shunzhi, who has worked the compilation of arithmetic textbooks.

Now, he has finally obtained the approval of His Majesty, and the arithmetic textbooks he compiled will be used in the imperial examination next year!

This is an incomparable honor for scholars, and it is incomparable to any reward!

At this moment, Jiajing's rather indifferent voice sounded in Tang Shunzhi's ears.

"Tang Shunzhi, what reward do you want?"

When Tang Shunzhi heard this, he responded without thinking.

"Your Majesty, Wechen doesn't want any reward, Wechen only hopes that when the time comes, you can hand over the work of printing arithmetic textbooks to Wechen!"

"Other than that, Weichen doesn't want anything!"

Jiajing saw that Tang Shunzhi was so resolute, and after hesitating for a moment, he immediately agreed to Tang Shunzhi's request.

"Well, I'll promise you!"

When Tang Shunzhi heard this, his face was full of excitement, and he immediately spoke up.

"Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty!" (End of chapter)
