Yanxi Year 8, February;
The imperial examination results were announced.
——As Zhong Hui expected, none of the candidates involved in mathematics were selected.
Not even the children of aristocratic families were.
Compared to those Confucian classics, things like the "Nine Chapters of Mathematical Art" are indeed too niche.
However, Gu Yi was not disheartened.
Everything requires gradual progress, whether it's the Forbidden Powder or other reforms.
One day, these will eventually take root in people's hearts as time goes by.
This time in the imperial examination, someone from the eighth generation of the Gu Clan participated.
This was forced by Gu Yi.
The biggest problem with the eighth generation is arrogance, mainly because the prestige of the Gu Clan is too strong, and coupled with being born in troubled times, the interrupted inheritance has completely fostered their arrogance.
If they don't want to pass on their legacy for thousands of years, this isn't a problem.
