Yang Guang experimented for a few days, and finally made fried noodles and dried vegetables that he felt he was quite satisfied with, and then went to Yang Shuang, and learned that Yang Shuang was declared into the palace by Queen Dugu, which was obviously a matter of marriage, and Yang Guang simply brought things into the palace.

When she arrived, Queen Dugu was talking to Yang Shuang, with a slight reprimand, just now the two met with Yang Shuang's future wife.

Seeing Yang Guang coming, Queen Dugu didn't stop, it was completely like Yang Shuang came to see as a son.

"Why didn't you speak?"

"Imperial sister-in-law, I don't know what to say."

"The old lady came out with her daughter, you didn't say a word, just nodded and agreed, you are going to marry someone, Your Majesty is afraid that you will not be satisfied with the people and let you communicate with people more, why do you look like you don't care."

"I really don't care about the imperial sister-in-law, it's all the same anyway, I can't see if the women are good-looking or not-looking, it makes no difference to me."

Queen Dugu was angry and funny, Yang Guang listened on the side, but he didn't expect that there were people with the same symptoms as Brother Qiang Dong in this era.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade Yang Shuang, Queen Dugu simply sighed and asked Yang Guang: "What's the matter today?" ”

"Queen Mother, I'm here to find Uncle Wang today."

"What's the matter with me?"

"Uncle Wang, last time I talked about the matter of military rations, I have studied it in the past few days and have researched a lot of things."

Queen Dugu was speechless, and came to her to discuss the matter of military rations.

"Let the queen mother bring me some water."

The maid brought water, and Yang Guang mixed it with water to make a paste, made a small dough, and filled a bowl of dried vegetables, with several common vegetables.

"Uncle Wang, come and have a taste."

Wei Wang curiously picked up the flour kneaded dough and took a bite, because the sesame seeds that were ground into the flour were added, this mouthful of lips and teeth was fragrant, Wei Wang was surprised, and felt it after swallowing it.

"How is this done, it tastes very good, and it feels full after just one bite, you say this is military rations?"

This is called satiety, because the things added are very oily, in fact, the energy is very sufficient, and the effect is the same as that of energy bars, because it is not much to control the cost, but compared to things like elk cakes, it is too much delicious.

Queen Dugu drank the mush, even from the perspective of a noble person like Queen Dugu, this thing is at least not difficult to drink, but she doesn't like this taste.

Yang Guang handed Yang Shuang the dried vegetables again, Yang Shuang took the dried vegetables and knocked them, it felt amazing, and they were crunchy in his mouth, only with a slight taste, and then brewed with water, which can restore a little bit of vegetable feeling.

As a person who marched and fought, Yang Shuang instantly understood the value of these two things, and immediately asked, "King Jin, do these two things cause trouble?" Is it costly? ”

"Dried vegetables are slowly baked in the cellar, and now the cellar has been studied almost, and it is not troublesome to build, the cost is the vegetables themselves and the materials for baking, as for the fried noodles, it adds chopped walnuts, chopped sesame seeds, and chopped almonds, and the price is definitely much higher than that of moose cake and millet, but this thing can replace millet and become the main marching ration, and Uncle Wang, you should be able to detect that this thing has a lot less cooking time than millet, and it tastes much better than millet and moose."

"Another important point is that after the delivery to the front line is completed, the soldiers will be lighter to carry and have enough strength."

Yang Shuang was rarely excited, these two things can make a big change in the current military rations, and immediately said: "Let's go to Shangju Your Majesty and use these two kinds of military rations at the border pass." ”

But the emperor didn't have time to see the two of them today, and the two asked to see them, but they learned that the emperor was discussing political affairs with Dr. Wang Long.

Wang Long, the word Bogao, a native of Taiyuan, the ancestor is famous and prosperous, a person who reads at a university, is nearly half a hundred years old, and is the ancestor of the Wang family of Xiatianyuan in Yichuan County, Henan Province in later generations.

A person who can be called a clan, generally speaking, his son or grandson is very good, just like after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, he had to call his father and grandfather his ancestors, at least two generations up.

Wang Long himself has a high reputation, and his sons and grandsons are indeed good enough.

He has four sons, respectively named, Tong, Ning, Ji, Jing, one of them, Wang Tongzi Zhongyan, also known as Wenzhongzi, studied the "Five Classics", listed as one of the five sons of the hundred schools of thought: "The five sons, there are Xun, Yang, Wenzhongzi, and Lao, Zhuang." ”

Xunzi, Laozi, Zhuangzi, there is no need to introduce, Yangzi, Wenzhongzi is not familiar to ordinary people, but can be put together with these three people, its transcendent status can be seen.

Wang Tong has another grandson, Wang Bo, one of the four masters of the early Tang Dynasty, a preface to the Pavilion of King Teng, and the first prose of the ages.

This family seems to have found the DNA of literary talent, that is, it can be passed on.

Wang Long is nearly half a hundred years old but has not yet given birth to Wang Tong, Yang Guang sighed that after two years of birth, it is estimated that he has to go to give gifts to others, Wang Long is still a few children, and the old gentleman is not only high, but his body is good enough.

Yang Jian called Wang Long the prince of the king, and although he did not summon the two at this time, he allowed the two to observe.

"Master Wang, I want to open the imperial examination, use the imperial examination to appoint civilian talents, and a school will also be built in Daxing City, and it will be widely spread, why does the master oppose it? Things have already begun, why resign at this time. ”

As one of the proposers of this plan, Wang Long has always firmly supported Yang Jian to use and improve the recommendation and selection system of the previous dynasty to complete the real imperial examination in his mind, but today Wang Long came to Yang Jian and said that he wanted him to stop.

Facing the emperor full of questions, Wang Long sighed helplessly: "Your Majesty, the old ministers have been walking in Chang'an City during this time, Chang'an City is prosperous, the nobles are brocade and jade, and the young man is polite, but go deeper, most of those who make a living at the bottom of Chang'an City, struggling in poverty, they can't afford to read, they can't afford to buy a house in Daxing City, their father is like this, their grandfather is like this, their children will still be like this, before the old minister thought it was simple, the imperial examination was a scholar, this time is not the time." ”

"It's not time?!"

Wang Long, who has always been a staunch supporter of the imperial examination, said such a thing, at this time, it means that the Great Sui is not the time to promote the imperial examination system, which is tantamount to slapping Yang Jian in the face, and the emperor, who has always been happy and angry, is angry this time.

Yang Jian pointed at Wang Long and shouted: "Why is my Great Sui out of time? ”

"Your Majesty, this is not a day's work, and you must not rush forward."

Yang Jian's eyes were deep: "Master Wang, I call you Master Wang, because I think you are highly educated, why have you become pedantic?" ”

"Non-old ministers are pedantic, hey, Your Majesty, even if there is no imperial examination in the Great Sui, according to the previous way of development, it will be unprecedentedly prosperous, Your Majesty is the king of the Holy Ming, the imperial examination will destroy the current stable pattern, the current situation of the Great Sui is just right, don't rush at this time."

Wang Long has been observing some time ago, the gate valve nobles are absolutely opposed to Yang Jian's desire to decentralize the right to study, and now the Great Sui inherits the previous dynasty, faintly has the image of prosperity, he thinks that if the emperor and this group of gate valve nobles who hold real power because of this matter, it will be extremely unfavorable to the Great Sui.

"It was yours before, let more people study, let the court have more fresh blood to make the court more prosperous, why has it changed now, it's wrong?"

Wang Long's heart was like a knife cone, and he said with a painful face: "At this time, it is not the reason of Your Majesty, it is not the fault of the old ministers, and it is not the fault of the Great Sui, but Your Majesty, the people are ignorant." ”

He believes that the reason why the imperial examination cannot be carried out now is because the people are too ignorant, there are too many uneducated people, too many people trapped in the whirlpool of poverty all their lives, and too many people trapped in the old and poor ideology.

They need education, but it is difficult to implement it, and even if it does, it is difficult to see results in the short term.

"The smart person may learn for a period of time, the knowledge will be understood at a point, the truth will be learned, and they will be enlightened in a few months, two or three years, but the ordinary people, less than three or five years, more than ten years, and even a little stupid people who have studied for more than ten years may not be able to open their minds, and such people are the real general public."

Wang Long's expression darkened as he spoke: "Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't want to, the old minister takes the universal education of the world as his own responsibility, and will never end here, but the old minister is for His Majesty's sake, and the good situation in the current Great Sui, Your Majesty does not have to be affected by an uncertain result in more than ten years." ”

Only then did the emperor understand Wang Long's intentions, and his face was as usual when he was angry.

"Master Wang, I never said that I would achieve it overnight, and the non-concession with the nobles is just testing their bottom line, before the King of Jin said at the court meeting to open a technical school for civilians, I think it is a good transition method, I never ask for urgency, but I never give up, the right thing, the right result, it is worth my persistence."

Yang Jian's words, Yang Guang felt excited in his heart.

Wang Long and Yang Jian, who understand each other, stand together like firm comrades-in-arms.

Yang Jian continued: "The school still has to be opened, first teach the nobles to be honorable, and slowly go down, as long as the wind of learning is opened, I believe that this wind will become a general trend, to help me go further, I have never sat on the throne and the name of the eternal king, what I want to do is to rejuvenate China, then the ancient Chinese culture must be inherited, Wang Fuzi, you must not resign to me like today." ”

"The old minister should do his best, and then die."

Yang Guang looked at the emperor, and a trace of admiration was born in his heart, worthy of being an emperor who could end the troubled times and complete unification, with a broad heart and a firm mind.

Ying Zheng, Yang Jian, Zhu Yuanzhang, those who can unify the Central Plains, who are not the heroes of the ages.

"Father, about the imperial examination, the son has an idea."

Yang Guang, who had been listening to him for a long time, finally spoke.
