If he wants to make better mining tools now, he must first understand the existing tools in the world so that he can know the current level of technology.

Unfortunately, the Princess's Mansion did not have many books, and Lai Fu went to all the bookstores outside but could not find the reference books that Situ Yuan wanted.

He could only say to Situ Yuan with a bitter face: "Young Master, the books you want are probably only available in the palace."

Situ Yuan had no choice but to find the eldest princess and asked to go to the palace to find some books to read.

The eldest princess was surprised again: "What kind of book do you want to find in the palace? Didn't you say before that you wanted to make a toy for Yingying? Why did you change your mind so quickly?"

"I don't know what kind of toy I should make, so I asked Lai Fu to buy a book, but he went to all the bookstores in the capital and couldn't find one, so I want to go to the palace to look for one."

The eldest princess: "..."

Although she felt very helpless, she still took Situ Yuan to the palace to find the book.

There are many books in the palace, and they are well classified and collected.

The eldest princess came in person and found the book that Situ Yuan wanted not long after entering the palace.

However, the books in the palace cannot be taken out at will. If Situ Yuan wants to take them back to read, he has to copy them down first to avoid accidental damage after taking them out of the palace.

Since Situ Yuan was so young, it was naturally impossible for him to copy the book by himself.

So I had to ask people from the Hanlin Academy to help copy it.

Copying books takes time and cannot be completed in a short time, so Situ Yuan stayed in the palace, reading books and waiting.

However, he had only been looking at it for a while when Yang Tao, who had heard the news, came over.

After seeing Situ Yuan, he seemed very excited: "Cousin Yuan'er, you really entered the palace!"

After saying that, he looked around and suddenly felt a little disappointed: "Why are you alone? Isn't Yingying with you?"

Situ Yuan was a little speechless: "I came to the palace to find some books to read. Yingying is still so young, how can she enter the palace casually?"

Yang Tao sighed in disappointment: "Hey, it would be great if Yingying was older, so I could take her everywhere to play!"

Situ Yuan glanced at him and bluntly said, "You haven't started classes yet? Isn't your daily workload too little?"

Yang Tao felt a headache when he heard about the class, and complained to Situ Yuan with a bitter face: "Father found a teacher and assigned me a lot of homework every day.

Fortunately, my mother said that I was weak and needed to recover first, so she cut half of my schoolwork, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to come out.”

At the end of his speech, he looked at Situ Yuan and said, "Cousin, isn't it time for you to go to school too?"

Situ Yuan raised the corner of his mouth: "I'm too weak, I need to recover first."

Yang Tao looked at him suspiciously: "But I see that you look better than me."

Situ Yuan's face turned serious: "You must have seen it wrong."

Yang Tao was unconvinced: "How is that possible? Your complexion is obviously better than mine!"

After saying that, he opened his eyes wide and looked at Situ Yuan carefully for a long time. The more he looked, the more he felt that Situ Yuan was talking nonsense!

So he winked at Situ Yuan, leaned closer to him and asked, "Cousin, do you also not want to go to school, so you said this on purpose?"

Situ Yuan said righteously: "What are you thinking? How could I be such a person!"

Seeing his serious face, Yang Tao didn't seem to be lying, and he couldn't help feeling a little ashamed: How could he think of his cousin like that? It was really wrong.

Then he looked at the book in front of Situ Yuan and leaned over to take a look curiously: "Cousin, what book are you reading?"

Because he was still young, he always found the words in the book obscure and difficult to understand, and had no idea what it was talking about.

So he looked at Situ Yuan in surprise: "Cousin, do you understand?"

Situ Yuan naturally understood it, but he couldn't say that, after all, he was two years younger than Yang Tao.

So he lied: "I was just looking around."

Yang Tao had no doubts. He looked at the contents of the book again and found that he really couldn't understand it, so he asked, "Then why are you looking at this?"
