Chapter 162 3 The prince was so brave that even Yinzhen gasped.
Huang Luzhuang was overjoyed when he realized this. He kowtowed to express his gratitude and actively recommended his old friend who was also good at this.
How could Kangxi object to such a good thing that he had hoped for so long?
He immediately smiled and nodded: "Since they are your dear friends, I will certainly welcome them. As long as they make outstanding contributions to the development of our Qing Dynasty like you, I will certainly not hesitate to reward and confer titles on them."
Huang Luzhuang thanked him happily.
Let’s not talk about what happened in the past. Now that I have this living example, I believe my friends will no longer hesitate.
and……
What researcher can resist arbitrary and unlimited materials?
Including the fine iron that was strictly controlled by the imperial court.
This alone is enough to keep the old guys coming back.
He was happy, and Yinxuan was happy too.
Huang Luzhuang alone has brought him so many surprises, and if there are ten or twenty more...
He doesn’t even dare to imagine to what extent the overall technological level of the Qing Dynasty will be advanced?
He just knows that you have to strike while the iron is hot.
While father Kangxi was in a good mood and Mr. Huang was full of energy, they took advantage of the situation to expand the event and make it sweep across the country.
For this, Yinxuan visited the Third Prince's Mansion again.
After hanging around with him for a long time, all the princes have honed their acting skills.
The Third Prince welcomed him with open arms, but after hearing his purpose, he took a deep breath and said, "This, this is impossible, right? Although Khan Ama himself studies geometry and physics, in fact, his interest in these things is a bit superficial."
[I know, I know!]
[Perhaps he didn't care, or perhaps he was on guard against the Han people, fearing that he would be driven back to herd sheep outside the Great Wall. Anyway, Kangxi said that the Manchus and the Han were one family, but in fact, whenever the Han scholars were outstanding, he would start to be on guard against the Manchus being led by the rhythm. For this reason, he even pinched his nose and re-employed Mamaqi in history.]
[The policy of keeping the people ignorant and the high-pressure deterrence of literary inquisition. In order to prevent the Han people from rebelling, the Qing emperors of all dynasties racked their brains. The whole country was numb and lifeless. As a result, the enemy came from outside, from all directions...]
Cough cough cough cough.
The Third Prince was so frightened by his bold words that he choked on a mouthful of tea and started coughing uncontrollably.
Yin Xuan quickly stood up and patted his back, muttering as he did so: "You're a grown man, why don't you know how to be more careful?"
The corners of the Third Prince's mouth twitched wildly: You little culprit, how dare you turn the tables on me?
However, the fact that Yinzhen's inner thoughts could be heard by relevant people was the highest secret of the Qing Dynasty, especially to Yinzhen himself.
They wouldn’t dare to reveal a single word even if the Third Prince died, let alone if he wasn’t dead.
I can only take the blame for my carelessness and thank my brother for his thoughtfulness.
Yin Xuan waved his hand and said, "What's the big deal? It's just a small favor. But Mr. Huang's article on being awarded the title of Cloud Cavalry Captain needs your help to polish it. Make sure to let the news spread and relevant talents flock to us."
"We can achieve the great goal of pooling our wisdom and jointly promoting the development of Qing industry."
Got it!
The Third Prince rolled his eyes at him and said, "I always say that night owls come into the house for no reason. Why did you come to my Third Prince's house without any reason? Your affection for me is fake, but you are really exploiting my labor!"
Hey.
Yin Xuan glared: "Look at what Third Brother said. How can helping each other between brothers be called exploitation?"
"Besides, aren't we all working for the development of the Qing Dynasty?"
"Moreover, the Nanshanji case and the Jiangnan imperial examination fraud case, the Qing Daily has reported too many dark sides of society recently. It is time for the world to see the side of Khan Ama who is not bound by rules in employing talents."
The Third Prince was speechless. If he continued talking, it would be considered as him ignoring the overall situation.
but……
The Nanshan Collection Case involved many famous scholars of the time, sparked unprecedented discussions, and captured the readers' hearts.
The cheating in the imperial examinations in Jiangnan concerns the interests of all scholars.
The whole world is craning their necks to wait and see whether Khan Ama will take drastic measures to rectify the chaos in scientific research!
At this time, he changed the subject forcefully and began praising the previously unknown Huang Luzhuang...
The Third Prince scratched his head and said, "I think it's hard to say whether it will be effective or not. There will definitely be criticism. Some extreme cases will even be criticized for protecting each other. The Tartar emperor really lacks etiquette and does not know the foundation of the country. For the sake of his bullshit reputation, he actually allowed corrupt officials to harm the imperial examination system."
hiss~
The Third Prince was so brave that even Yinzhen gasped.
"My dear brother, just say this to your younger brother, but don't dare to say even one more punctuation mark to others. Otherwise..."
Yinzhen narrowed his eyes and made a killing chicken-wiping neck gesture to him.
The Third Prince chuckled, "That's not important. Can you tell me what punctuation is? Did you learn it from Mr. Huang?"
Look how thoughtful he is!
In order to prevent his brother from having to make excuses, he took the initiative to find someone to take the blame for him.
Yin Xuan smiled and waved his hands: "That's not the case. This is something my brother came up with by combining ancient sentence reading with Western punctuation."
[Amitabha, the eternal heaven is above, this is not a kid taking credit for nothing. Mr. Huang has already taken the blame for countless things and can't stand more pressure. Fortunately, the comma and period were used for punctuation in the Song Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty also had names of people and places.]
[I am a lazy guy. I have come up with a simpler method based on this, but it is at most smart, not sensational.]
The Third Prince cooperated with him and showed a look of shock: "Eighteenth brother is very talented, I am not as good as him, but I wonder if you can let me take a look at the punctuation mark you are talking about?"
Yinzhen waved his hand proudly and said, "What's the difficulty?"
Then he hesitated again and mentioned his original purpose again.
The Third Prince patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Eighteenth Brother. I'll take care of it!"
Both brothers were very satisfied.
For most of the next day, the Third Prince was constantly shocked.
Period, comma, colon, exclamation point, ellipsis, explanatory mark...
Each punctuation mark seems simple, but when used correctly they can make the meaning of a sentence clearer, the tone more appropriate, and enhance the effect of language expression, which made the Third Prince praise them endlessly.
He even said that he would submit a memorial to ask for credit for Yinzhen.
Yin Xuan was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly: "It's just a trivial matter, why is it worth Third Brother being so angry?"
Unexpectedly, the Third Prince looked solemn and said in a particularly serious tone: "Eighteenth brother, please do not underestimate yourself. You must know that although punctuation is small, it plays a vital role. This is definitely a milestone in the history of literature. It will benefit the present and future generations. No reward is too much."
Yinxuan: ...
He didn't underestimate the importance of punctuation, but...
I always feel a little weird when I receive an award for achievements that don't belong to me.
[And how old am I? Can I really invent one thing after another without any bottleneck? Tsk tsk, it's only because my father Kangxi and my brothers love me so much that they never doubt me. If it were someone else, Fu Hui and Hei Gou Xue would have been ready long ago.]
