Chapter 61 Concubine Liu Is a Good Person, I Have Confirmed It!

It was late at night when the emperor entered Concubine Liu's bedroom.

He had too many things to do that day. He was busy trying to improve his sons' wisdom and replace ministers who were not qualified for their positions, and give them questions for five days later.

He also had to write down the plague isolation, prevention and cure methods in the little princess' heart and hand it over to the Imperial Hospital.

After finishing all these, the moon was already on the willow branches.

But when Xiao Yunzhou came over, he found that Concubine Liu had not turned off the lights yet, and was obviously waiting for him to bring the little princess back before going to bed.

And his first action was to let Zhang Jia take the little princess away.

Because he didn't want the little princess, who was reincarnated as a fairy, to hear what he said next.

Her father and mother Concubine Liu could hear her heart...

If the little princess knew, she might be reserved in the future and no longer act on her heart without distraction.

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou thought, and as soon as he entered the bedroom, he went straight to Concubine Liu and got straight to the point.

"Liupin, don't try to lie to me. Tell me the truth, the silk reeling machine is not what you thought up, right?"

But then, he was stunned with an angry expression on his face because he was concealed.

Because he walked behind the screen in the room and in front of Liupin, he saw a table full of drawing papers-

On the paper, there were all anatomical drawings of looms from different angles, as well as component components.

Some were crossed out, and some were crumpled and thrown on the table.

And on the table, there were at least five or six books on sericulture and silk weaving spread out.

Many words in the books were circled, highlighted, and even noted.

And Liupin was looking distressed, holding a pen in one hand, drawing a new loom, and crossed it out halfway through the drawing.

Xiao Yunzhou's accusations and suspicions were mostly dissipated in an instant.

"Your Majesty." Liupin noticed him at this time, stood up hurriedly, and saluted him.

But she still had a sad look on her face.

"What are you doing?" Emperor Xiao Yunzhou forgot his previous questioning and looked at the dozen sketches made by Concubine Liu.

Concubine Liu was still a little absent-minded and sighed, "I am thinking, after the improvement of silk reeling, whether the weaving process can also be improved again to increase the speed of weaving."

"But after thinking about it for a few days, discussing with several craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry, and trying several methods, I only made a small half of the loom."

"The new loom always makes mistakes. I am flipping through the book and sorting out the experience summary of the female workers during the day, thinking about how to improve it."

Xiao Yunzhou looked down and saw Concubine Liu frowning, thinking hard.

Looking at the draft on the table again, it was indeed a sketch of the loom changing step by step.

Each one was written with the date and time of drawing, the date and time of abandonment, and the reason for the problem.

Xiao Yunzhou was shocked. Concubine Liu was actually studying weaving technology!

It's not what he thought. He picked up a method for nothing by relying on the little princess's thoughts?

"Your Majesty, what did you say to me just now?" Concubine Liu blinked, "I was just thinking about whether the pillars of the loom could be made smaller, and I didn't hear your question."

Xiao Yunzhou was speechless.

He couldn't ask the question just now.

Compared to himself, sitting down to get the plague prescription, Concubine Liu worked very hard and figured it out by herself!

Xiao Yunzhou coughed lightly, "Nothing, I just feel strange, why do you suddenly have so many ideas about weaving."

"I was moved by Min's spirit and thought that women could do something." Concubine Liu lowered her head.

Xiao Yunzhou's ears turned red for a moment.

So that's it, he thought too much.

"Chan Niang, sit down quickly, no need to stand."

Concubine Liu nodded when she heard the words, but after sitting down, her heart was shaken.

The emperor really suspected her.

This is normal. The emperor is not stupid, otherwise he would not have been favored by the previous emperor and made the prince.

Liupin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she has been thinking about the improvement of silk weaving these days.

Her daughter gave her advice and told her the fairy's improved silk weaving method.

But after Liupin used it, she found that this fairy method was not completely superior to mortal thinking. It still relied on carpentry and woodworking, and it was feasible. It was not out of reach.

So after Liupin knew that her daughter had doubled her intelligence, she felt that she could not waste her daughter's help. She should take advantage of her own intelligence to think about it carefully.

Unexpectedly, today, she happened to be caught by the suspicious Xiao Yunzhou!

Liupin sighed secretly, as expected, people still have to make progress.

Even if the fairy helps, you can't just lie down and rely on your daughter.

"Qiuli, serve tea to the emperor." Liupin ordered.

Xiao Yunzhou waved his hand, indicating that it was not necessary, "I will leave after sitting for a while."

But as soon as he sat down opposite Concubine Liu, he saw a bowl of goat milk that was half finished in Concubine Liu's hand.

Xiao Yunzhou raised his eyebrows, "You are also drinking this? I asked the princes to drink it today, did you listen to me?"

Concubine Liu nodded, this time with a serious expression, "When I was improving the weaving, I felt that I was still not smart enough."

She was not lying.

Drinking milk and eating eggs can nourish the brain and make you smarter. What the little princess said must be right.

Liupin only hated that she couldn't be smarter, otherwise she could quickly improve her skills and make more winter clothes for the refugees.

"Even if drinking this goat's milk can only make me smarter by half, it's good if I can do half more." Liupin said sincerely.

Xiao Yunzhou was touched and full of emotion when he heard it.

Especially today, several princes were not very happy to drink.

Some of them are not as smart as Liupin!

"It's hard for you, Channiang. You are always thinking about making progress. It is a blessing for the people to have a woman like you in the harem."

"My food, clothing, chewing and daily necessities are all provided by the people. This is what I should do." Liupin retorted sincerely.

If she does more, her son will not become a king who loses his country when he succeeds to the throne in the future.

Xiao Yunzhou didn't know what she was thinking, so he was very impressed and stood up immediately, "Good, you are a woman with vision."

"From now on, Concubine Liu, your goat milk quota will be paid by me."

"By the way, from tomorrow, bring the little princess to me when she wakes up." Xiao Yunzhou said, and looked at Concubine Liu with sympathy.

"I will also think of a weaving method for you."

Poor Concubine Liu couldn't hear the little princess's voice, so she could only mess around on her own.

But she might not be able to come up with a good idea.

Only he, the father, could find a way to coax the little princess and let her reveal one or two secret recipes for improvement, and tell Concubine Liu that he knew.

Xiao Yunzhou thought about it and stood up with his hands behind his back, "It's late at night, you should rest early. I will help you, you don't need to worry too much."

Concubine Liu: "..."

She was speechless and didn't know what to say.

Forget it, as long as the emperor is happy.

*

Five days later, the ministers accepted the test set by the emperor outside the Zhengyang Gate Hall.

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou, holding the little princess, was patrolling the venue.

As expected, the ministers who were slow to write and looked embarrassed, as the little princess said in her heart, had an IQ of less than 50.

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou frowned, looking at the last ten people, and wanted them to put down their pens and go home directly!

[Wow, Emperor Dad, our Jingguo's national strength has increased by 0.1 today compared to three days ago~]

[Because you said the exam, many ministers have been serious and motivated these days, and dare not fool around. ]

Xiao Chuchu looked at the system data and smiled.

[As expected, employee assessment is necessary. ]

Employees?

Did the minister mean it?

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou listened and thought about it.

[Most modern Internet companies have a bottom-out system. Employees with poor performance are eliminated by about 10% every year. ]

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou stared.

That's similar to the Jingguo system of inspecting officials in Beijing.

But Beijing inspections are only conducted once every six years.

I didn't expect that the fairyland is much more ruthless than their Jing country!

So many "employees" are eliminated every year?

But with such strictness, there will be fewer people who are not motivated.

It is worthy of being the fairyland!

Xiao Yunzhou's eyes lit up.

Their Jing country is now in tatters, so they should learn the system of the fairyland!

No, Jing country's national strength is definitely much worse than the fairyland, so it should be more strict!

Xiao Yunzhou thought about it, and then he became serious in an instant. He immediately stood in front of the hall and said with confidence, "From today on, I will assess you every month!"

He will often tighten the brains of the important officials in the capital in the future!

The fairyland assesses once a year, and the officials in Jing country are assessed once a month!

"Monthly assessment, I will eliminate the lowest-ranking officials in court - demote them, or deprive them of their official status."

The ministers below looked constipated.

What?

Damn, once a month?

If you don't do well in the exam, you may be fired immediately?

Before they became officials, the imperial examination was held every three years.

Now that they are officials, they have to take exams every month?

Is this justice?

Whether it is the chief minister of the cabinet, Lord Fucha, or the old man of the Liu family who is at the back, they are all shocked.
