Chapter 397 Fire Forbidden
Strictly speaking, what Wynn did was a responsible act.

After all, as the chief inspector of ceremonies, the speaker of the eunuch circle of the Ming Dynasty, and the head of the inner courtyard of the imperial palace, he had an unshirkable responsibility for two consecutive fires.

Next, it is the responsibility to carry out targeted fire safety rectification and strictly control the circulation of flammable and explosive materials.

After Zhu Qizhen listened to it, he couldn't find anything wrong with it.

People work hard on fire safety, what can I say?
Don't let it happen?

What if there is another fire?
However, if you have controlled all the lights and candles, the palace will be pitch black at night, which is not necessarily a good thing.

Leaving aside the issue of work efficiency, if a thief comes in, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?
Even if there are no thieves, if something goes wrong with this black light, even if someone bumps into it, it's not good!
Zhu Qizhen thought about it, and was very entangled, so he had to say: "You can't do everything in one size fits all, it's okay to strengthen fire prevention measures, and you must also consider the actual cost of the palace, the most basic lighting protection must be there, right? "

With a smile on his face, Wynn said: "It's because the servants didn't think carefully, so arrange adjustments as soon as possible."

Bellin glanced at him, but said nothing.

Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, how can they still not know their own thoughts?

Regardless of Wynn's willingness to agree, you must know that there is a lot of knowledge in the word adjustment.

Just pretending to give you two candles and half a catty of lamp oil is considered an adjustment.

If you want to ask for more, I'm sorry, the emperor has already said that it's okay to strengthen fire prevention measures, it's good to give you these, aren't you satisfied?
Seeing Beilin in a daze, Zhu Qizhen asked, "Any more questions?"

"Oh, that..."

Belin reacted, and hurriedly said: "The Academy of Sciences has too many experiments on weekdays. These laboratories are always a hidden danger in the palace. Even if the fire and candles are controlled, there is no guarantee that there will be no other dangers. Why don't you... move the Academy of Sciences out?"

"Move out, move to where?"

"Half a year ago, the Materials Research Institute requisitioned a piece of land in Xishan, why not requisition some more and move the Academy of Sciences there."

Belin had this idea a long time ago, but now the Academy of Sciences has a large number of people, and it is not so easy to move them all at once.

Now the palace strictly controls the fire and candle, which affects the experiment and delays the efficiency, so it is better to move it away.

Zhu Qizhen nodded. Xishan is a branch of Taihang Mountain, which echoes Yanshan Mountain. The cement factory and shooting range are there, and the steam locomotive research institute of the Academy of Sciences is also there. Now that the Materials Research Institute has been expanded, it is better to move the Academy of Sciences directly there. .

Moreover, it was very close to the training base of the [-] Battalion, so it was not a problem whether it was safety or confidentiality.

"That's fine. Get a charter as soon as possible, how to move, how much it will cost, and which houses will be vacant. Wynn, you can assist the Academy of Sciences and make statistics."

Wynn quickly replied, "Yes!"

The matter has come to a conclusion, the two retreated in unison, and got down to prepare.

As soon as he left the imperial study room, he saw two people coming towards him.

Upon closer inspection, it was Cao Nai and Zhang Yi, cabinet scholars.

Belin arched her hands, and the other party nodded, and the two passed by.

Wynn also saluted, but Cao Nai didn't return the salute. Instead, with a sullen face, he grabbed his neck.

"Old Cao Ge, you are..."

Wynn was startled, why did he still do it?

He thought quickly in his mind, but he couldn't think of anything to offend others.

The only possible conflict is the prohibition of fire in the palace.

However, there is nothing in the Academy of Sciences, so why are you in a hurry?
On weekdays, the Academy of Sciences uses much more candles than your cabinet. Even if the six ministries and the Imperial Academy are added together, it may not be as much as half of what the Academy of Sciences uses.

"The old man asked you, did the Supervisor of Rituals ban all the candles in the Tribute Court?"

Cao Nai's complexion was not good, with an aggressive posture.

After hearing this, Huai En understood a little bit, and said: "The Gongyuan is too close to the imperial palace, so we must be careful..."

Cao Nai interrupted directly: "The Tribute Court belongs to the Ministry of Rites, why should your Rites inspector intervene?"

"Didn't our family say that the Gongyuan is too close to the palace, if the water leaks, who will be responsible?"

"The old man and the Ministry of Rites are in charge!"

"Old Cao Ge, what you said is wrong. You can be responsible outside the palace. If the fire spreads to the palace, the emperor will blame us. All the crimes will be borne by our family!"

Cao Nai was so angry that he pushed Wynn back to the imperial study.

Zhu Qizhen also heard the commotion outside, and asked, "Cao Qing's family, Zhang Qing's family, why are you here?"

"emperor……"

Wynn looked aggrieved and was about to complain a few words, but was interrupted.

"Report to the emperor, the old minister is for this year's spring!"

Chunwei is the general examination, which is a national examination for raising people to enter Beijing for Jinshi, and it is held every four years.

After the New Deal, the imperial examination system has changed. The specific performance is that the categories are more diverse, and natural science examinations have appeared. Moreover, one does not need a Jinshi to become an official.

The promotion channel has been opened, as long as you have the ability, it is also a good way to promote step by step from the bottom.

However, no matter how it changes, the four-yearly exam is still the top priority of the imperial examination in Ming Dynasty.

The emperor paid attention to it, the imperial court paid attention to it, and the students all over the country paid attention to it.

This year's Chunwei, the examiner appointed by the imperial court is Cao Nai.

Don't underestimate the position of this temporary chief examiner, the knowledge in it is great.

There is a special teacher-student relationship between the chief examiner of each session and the students of that year, called students.

The imperial examination itself has a lot of chance. Whether or not you can get the title on the gold list directly determines the future of the examinee in his life.

Therefore, candidates will highly praise the chief examiner and rush to visit before the exam, hoping to get a clue about the topic.

Of course, Daming is also very strict about favoritism and fraud. If the examiner really dares to reveal the questions and is found out, he will be exiled if he does not die.

However, even if the question is not clear, it will not hinder the movement between the examiner and the examinee.

Which candidate doesn't want to make friends with the dignitaries in Beijing and China, so as to pave the way for his future?
When the results of the imperial examinations are released, the first thing for those who are on the list is to vote for their students and pay a visit to their door.

From now on, even if the relationship between the two is established, as a student, it is natural to move closer to the teacher, and in the officialdom, only the teacher will follow suit.

As a teacher, he will do his best to take care of his students, such as giving priority to promoting students, actively expanding their political influence, and doing his best to help students get away with mistakes when they make mistakes.

On the surface, this kind of relationship seems to be a teacher-student relationship, but in fact it is a community of interests. Young students need support to go further, and old teachers need fresh troops to stabilize their positions.

Because of this, Cao Nai attached great importance to Chun Wei this time, but when he was inspecting the examination room, he found that even the candles were not prepared, which made him very annoyed.

You know, Chunwei has been there for three whole days, eating and pooping has to be done on the spot, there is not even a candle, what should people do at night?
Among these candidates, many of them will be their own students in the future, so let people take the exam?

You won't be scolded to death in the future!
