Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant

Chapter 160 – Teaching a Lesson (2)

A year passed quickly.

Mo Linyuan did the math problems that were only available in the post-modern era, exclaiming in wonder at the magic of multiplication, subtraction, and division.

In this era, there were calculations, but they were too troublesome.
If numbers can be manipulated as easy as this, then he believed addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division would bring great convenience to the people.

“The Imperial Tutor previously always said that he wanted to reform the imperial examinations and depose of the myriad of family techniques so that only one standard will be left.
I felt that it wasn’t appropriate and never agreed.
But now, the idea seems wise.
Regardless of whether these techniques are supreme and came from the top hundred, their practicality is too low.
Although the study of character is essential, one still has to emphasize learning to use it to learn.”

His eyes lit up slightly.
“It’s like arithmetic.
For it to be used in every way, I believe we should include it in the next imperial examinations.”

Ye Mu, of course, had no objections to this reform! She nodded and smiled, “This thing is simple; I can write textbooks for it.”

In this era, there were both paper-making and printing techniques.

Writing books is still very convenient, but…

Ye Mu touched her chin and said, “It’s just that the existing papermaking techniques are either too expensive or too troublesome.
Furthermore, they are too fragile and are not suitable for writing.
How about this, I’ll try to improve the papermaking techniques when I have time!”

Mo Linyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled.
“May I ask Master Ye if there is anything she doesn’t know?”

Ye Mu had a headache as she pointed at the paper on the table.
“My brain is quite straight-forward.
I can’t read between the lines, but I do know quite a lot about practical techniques!”

Mo Linyuan chuckled.
This little thing was not modest at all.

He said, “Arithmetic is good, but I feel that physics doesn’t seem to be of much use.
You don’t believe it’s necessary to involve in the Imperial examinations, do you?”

To study how water forms into the air and then condensing to frost–what use was there to it when people mostly relied on their physical strength and martial arts?

Ye Mu was like a knowledge shell.
In her era, everyone wanted to learn from her, so naturally, she was able to teach him a little this time.

Seeing Mo Linyuan looking at her, she let out a snort and said the next sentence profoundly, “Remember, no matter what it is, learning it will be useful.”

This sentence made Mo Linyuan’s heart skip a beat.
“Learning anything is useful?”

He suddenly understood, as if he had recognized a new logic.

“Of course!” Ye Mu took out the wheel that she had prepared earlier and waved it in front of him, “I’ll show you the power of physics today! Just observe how handy this little thing is!”

Just as the two were about to delve into the matter, someone came to report.

“Your Majesty, something bad happened! The Father Emperor ran away from the Hall of Virtue!”

Over the past year, Mo Shiwen had tried to regain his power many times.
He had once sat in the emperor’s seat and experienced a kind of glory no one could easily attain, and after being fiercely bullied for five years, he became even more eager to reclaim it the moment he came out.
Besides, there were people from powerful families to add oil to the fire, making Mo Shiwen, even more, daring to run away.

Even if the empress dowager had always wanted to capture Mo Shiwen, Mo Linyuan had never so much as spared an effort to protect him.
However, could he let such a person become another trouble?
