Through the Empire Sandbox, Lin Beifan found Yaoyao eating fruit in a pavilion within the imperial palace.

However, as soon as she saw Lin Beifan, she turned and ran.

Lin Beifan shouted: Yaoyao, stop right there! Ive already seen you!

Yaoyao stopped in her tracks, turned around, and said with a sheepish smile: Little foolish emperor, what do you need? If theres nothing, Im going to practice, see you later!

Dont go, Ive co to you for an important reason!

Lin Beifan approached and said: You must have heard about what happened to the Great Luo Dynasty, right?

Yaoyao looked puzzled: What happened to the Great Luo Dynasty?

Keep pretending! I see right through you!

Lin Beifan said with a knowing look: Such a big incident, I dont believe you, a Demon Sect Saintess, wouldnt know about it! Do you need to jog your mory?

Yaoyao slapped her forehead: Oh~ I rember now, its about the earth dragon turning over! When the Great Luo soldiers were returning, they encountered a massive upheaval of the earth, the ground collapsed, and millions of soldiers fell into the pit, suffering heavy casualties! They got what they deserved. That woman must be furious, haha

Exactly, thats the incident!

Lin Beifan continued: At that ti, we made a bet, Chu Chu bet on Great Feng winning, you bet on Great Luo, and I judged that it was a lose-lose situation! Now the facts are clear, according to our agreent, shouldnt you fulfill a condition for ~~?

Did that really happen? Yaoyao looked confused.

Lin Beifan said irritably: It did! If you want to go back on your word, then I wont bet with you in the future nor give you the chance to make money with ! Because you dont keep your word!

Hearing there would be no chance to make money, Yaoyao imdiately compromised.

She grabbed Lin Beifans arm while speaking in a pleasant tone: Alright, alright, I lost this ti, you happy now? You can set a condition, but dont go too far!

Dont worry, its not too much at all! Lin Beifan whispered into her ear.

Yaoyaos face turned red in an instant, and she said through gritted teeth: You jerk! You said it wasnt too much, Ill strangle you!

Lin Beifan: Ow, ow, ow

Give a different condition!

Lin Beifan was unyielding: This is the only condition. Take it or leave it. If you dont agree, we can go our separate ways!

Yaoyao glared at Lin Beifan fiercely: Fine! Co with !

The two of them ran behind the rockery.

After the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea, they both erge.

Yaoyaos face was flushed with embarrassnt.

Lin Beifans face was also red, but from being kissed.

Little foolish emperor, Ive kept my promise, and our debt is now settled! Yaoyao said through gritted teeth.

The mory of what had just happened was still embarrassingly fresh!

That jerk!

To think he would make such a condition

Dont you ever fall into this Yaoyaos hands, or youll see whats coming to you!

Of course!

Lin Beifan said earnestly: However, Yaoyao, if you ever want to do sothing like that in the future, feel free to co to . I will always welco you with open arms!

You foolish emperor! Yaoyao pinched him again.

Lin Beifan: Ow, ow, ow

Annoyed, Yaoyao went off to practice her martial arts while Lin Beifan went to find Han Chuchu.

Chuchu, according to our agreent, youve lost. Shouldnt you agree to one condition within your power? Lin Beifan said.

Accepting her loss, Han Chuchu replied: Your Majesty, what would you like?

Lin Beifan leaned in and whispered: Tonight, lets try a few different moves

Mmmhm! Han Chuchu nodded shyly.

That night was yet another sleepless night.

By this ti, the imperial examination and the military selection had concluded.

Through this imperial examination, Great Xia had selected three hundred scholars to serve as officials in the court.

It might seem like a lot, but for Great Xia, with its empires size and population, it was far from enough. It needs to be increased several tis over to et the demand.

However, Lin Beifan decided to slow down, planning to hold the examination once or twice a year to give people hope and continuously attract outstanding scholars to serve.

As for the military selection, Lin Beifan relaxed the requirents and chose 200 people.

All of these individuals were of Second-rate level, with over thirty people reaching First-rate. They also had considerable knowledge of military strategy and could lead troops in battle after a bit of training.

Their arrival significantly bolstered the militarys strength.

After the two major examinations, Li Linfu imdiately announced Lin Beifans new policies.

From now on, only those with the status of an Advanced Scholar could participate in the imperial examination. However, if they were willing to stay and teach, nurturing talent for Great Xia, the conditions would be lowered, and even those with the status of an Apprentice Scholar could also participate.

This policy had a huge impact.

After all, the majority of those coming to take the imperial examination were Apprentice Scholars.

With their status and knowledge, they would not even qualify to take the imperial examination in other dynasties or empires.

It was only because Lin Beifan was in dire need of people that he relaxed the conditions, allowing more scholars to participate.

However, this boon is ultimately going to end.

The next session might see 200,000 scholars participating in the imperial examination if it wasnt restricted.

Most scholars gave the matter serious thought and decided to accept the conditions of Great Xia, choosing to stay and teach.

After all, they wouldnt have opportunities in other countries, but here, they at least had a chance.

Thus, Great Xia seized the opportunity to retain a lot of talent.

With talent staying, Great Xia was ready to vigorously promote education.

By imperial decree: Starting today, we will vigorously advance national education, enabling more children to afford schooling and serve the country!

We will build schools in every city! Any child of the appropriate age can enter these schools to learn to read and write without paying tuition! Those with excellent performance will also receive generous scholarships to help them complete their studies!

This caused a huge stir!

You see, in ancient tis, getting an education was of paramount importance!

Doing well in studies could lead soone to beco an Apprentice Scholar, an Advanced Scholar, or even an opportunity to serve in the court and bring honor to ones ancestors!

However, education was also an extrely costly affair!

Whether it was books, brushes, paper, etc., they were all very expensive, and many people simply couldnt afford them.

But the most expensive part was the tuition.

A lot of knowledge couldnt be learned alone; one needed a teachers guidance to continue learning.

The more skilled the teacher, the higher the tuition they charged.

For an ordinary family to educate a scholar, it would typically an financial ruin.

Even for a moderately wealthy family, it was unsustainable!

Precisely because education was so expensive, many were deterred from pursuing it!

But now, Great Xia was fully promoting basic education and had abolished tuition fees!

As a result, many children could afford to go to school!
