Chapter 211 Welcome Mathematics to the Imperial Examination Family

　　Yan Linghui was not just saying this casually.

　　She had seriously thought about why among the six arts of a gentleman, only "mathematics" was restored instead of copying the entire thing.

　　——This time when she ran away from home, she traveled three thousand miles and saw many things that she had never seen in the princess's mansion before.

　　The common people were very poor, and the gentry were very rich. The poor common people had to spend all their property and energy just to support their family members to study. They had no extra money to buy horses, cars, learn music, learn archery...

　　Once all six arts are mastered, the children of common people will have no chance of competing with the children of the gentry and wealthy.

　　After he finished speaking, the scene fell into an eerie silence.

　　When Prince Consort Yan Chun heard his daughter say this, he could no longer stand there and wanted to step out to rescue her.

　　"Silly girl! The officials in the court are not fools. Guess why, in the past month or two, no one has come forward to ask His Majesty to reform the imperial examination system and reopen several subjects."

　　How could the prince bear to see his brother-in-law step on a landmine - mainly because the other party had just been put on his father's list for selling anxiety to his father. If he went out again now, wouldn't that be walking directly into the muzzle of his father's gun!

　　He immediately stepped forward and moved closer to his father: "Your Majesty! I think the method this kid suggested is feasible. And I also think that adding one or more subjects will not hinder ordinary students from studying the Four Books and Five Classics."

　　Yan Linghui was stunned.

　　She was indeed gifted, but she was too young to make up for the lack of social skills. At this moment, she could only vaguely feel that the prince had something else in mind, as if he was helping her clean up the mess, but she could not figure out what was wrong with her proposal.

　　But that's okay.

　　Yan Linghui's face was frank.

　　She has a father! She can go back and ask her father!

　　The female consort Yan Chun, however, retracted her steps, lowered her eyes, and concealed the gratitude in her pupils.

　　My daughter was still young and didn't understand, but she understood what was going on.

　　——The fact that the imperial examination no longer tested the six arts of a gentleman was actually a development tacitly approved by emperors of many dynasties.

　　The emperors were never afraid of the large number of private academies, or rather, they were the people who most wanted all the people to be literate, because they had a complete set of brainwashing procedures, all hidden in the classics.

　　The more education one has, the easier it is to be indoctrinated with ideas of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

　　On the contrary, people who have little or no education will shout "Are kings, princes, generals and ministers of different races" when they encounter injustice, oppression, and tyrants and treacherous ministers. Most educated people will think "The emperor is good, it's all because of the treacherous ministers who deceived him. If the treacherous ministers are removed, the country will prosper."
