“As for Prince Anyang, is His Highness…”
Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao smiled and looked at each other.
“Prince Anyang came to us first. Without Prince Anyang, we would not be able to bring the Nangong Army away from the border.” Li Xiao said.
Liu Wuji’s eyes flashed with understanding.
In this way, everything made sense.
A moment later, a hint of worry appeared in Liu Wuji’s eyes.
“Prince Anyang’s intentions…”
Li Xiao’s expression turned serious.
“His Highness has the intention to fight for the throne. I’ve already agreed to lead the Nangong Army to lend him a helping hand at this critical moment.” Liu Wuji fell silent.
After a while, he nodded.
“Among the several princes of the Emperor, Prince Anyang is indeed the best candidate to succeed the throne.”
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Li Xiao’s eyes.
The Imperial Advisor had a special status and was highly regarded by the royal family. He could even influence some of the royal family’s decisions.
Did Master mean to support Prince Anyang by saying this?
Liu Wuji glanced at Li Xiao and didn’t want to delve further into this topic.
Ever since the Emperor made a move on the Great General King, his thoughts had become more and more extreme.
It could be said that the Emperor had a lot to do with the Great Yan’s current predicament.
Letting such an emperor continue to reign might not be a good thing for the country.
At this moment, it might not be a bad thing for Prince Anyang to have such thoughts.
“Sit down. Tell me what happened to you all these years.” Liu Wuji looked at the couple. His eyes had already turned into the kind of love that an elder would have when looking at a junior.
The couple looked at each other.
After thanking him, they sat down.
Then, the Imperial Advisor’s laughter came from the study room from time to time.
If there were servants outside the bamboo garden, they would be surprised.
The Imperial Advisor, who had always been stern, actually had such a happy moment.
After Liu Wuji heard about what had happened to Li Xiao over the years, he sighed. At the same time, he was happy for his disciple.
Not only was he happy that he had managed to survive, but he was also happy that he had married such a good wife.
After listening to Li Xiao’s past, Liu Wuji looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
He actually asked about Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue thought that the Imperial Advisor was only concerned about his beloved disciple’s wife, so she didn’t think too much about it and simply told him about herself.
She only briefly mentioned what happened to the Lin family before she transmigrated.
She emphasized what happened after she bought Li Xiao.
To her surprise, she found that the Imperial Advisor was very curious about her. From time to time, he would interrupt her and ask her about some related matters.
He seemed to care more about her than he did for Li Xiao.
“Women are indeed not inferior to men. It’s Xiao’er’s blessing to be able to marry you.” After listening to Lin Xiaoyue’s narration, Liu Wuji complimented her.
At the same time, the more he looked at the couple, the more he felt that they were a good match.
Li Xiao did not refute his master’s words. Instead, he nodded in agreement.
Lin Xiaoyue blushed again.
Liu Wuji took a sip of tea.
After a while, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
“By the way, where did you learn arithmetic from?” He asked.
Lin Xiaoyue’s originally relaxed heart suddenly tensed up.
However, her face remained calm.
“An old man who traveled to Daishi Village said that I have the root of wisdom, so he taught me those things.”
“Later on, I met Young Master Liang by accident. He saw that my arithmetic ability was outstanding and offered to learn from me.”
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Lin Xiaoyue’s face.
“At that time, my family was lacking money, so I accepted Young Master Liang’s money and taught him for a few days.”
Liu Wuji glanced at Lin Xiaoyue and smiled. He did not probe further.
“Chengcai admires you very much. After becoming my disciple, he taught me the algorithm you taught him.”
Lin Xiaoyue was stunned. However, she did not have any other thoughts.
When she collected the tuition fees, she didn’t forbid Liang Chengcai from teaching what she had taught him.
Moreover, the Imperial Advisor was not an outsider.
Liu Wuji was satisfied.
“Your algorithms are indeed novel and unique, and they’re efficient and fast.”
“Some time ago, Chengcai even mentioned it to me. I hope that the method of recording those numbers and the algorithm can be spread to the people of the Great Yan.”
Lin Xiaoyue was shocked.
What? Spreading it out to benefit the people of the Great Yan? In the future, let all the people in the Great Yan use Arabic numbers to keep accounts?
This was good! This way, she wouldn’t have to spend so much effort looking at the accounts in the future!
Previously, she had wanted to train the accounts masters of the industries under her to use Arabic numbers to keep accounts and use the double-entry bookkeeping method to increase efficiency.
However, she had never been able to free herself to arrange this matter.
If the Imperial Advisor was in charge of this matter, the officials would push this forward.
At that time, she could just send people to the academy or school to study.. How much less trouble would she have to deal with?
