"Is that so?" Qin Zhaoci nodded thoughtfully, "So there are no princes and princesses now in the Empire studying at the Imperial Academy?"
Ye Lianyin nodded: "Yes, when my sister was still studying at the Imperial Academy, they still had some. But after I enrolled, the members of the royal family have basically graduated."
"What about the ministers in the Empire?" Qin Zhaoci continued to ask. "Will they operate in secret and enter the academy to study?"
Ye Lianyin frowned: "I don't know. I'm not really sure. Maybe there will be. After all, the people don't really care much about how the minister's child got into the academy."
"Is that so?" Qin Zhaoci stroked her chin thoughtfully, stared at the front for several seconds, then turned to look at Ye Lianyin again, "Are you free right now?"
Ye Lianyin nodded, and looked at Qin Zhaoci in surprise: "Yeah, what's the matter?"
"Can you show me around? I want to see your school." Qin Zhaoci pointed to the downstairs, "It just so happens that we need to digest food."
Ye Lianyin subconsciously glanced at the ground and nodded: "Mhm, okay."
In this way, Ye Lianyin took Qin Zhaoci downstairs and took her a good tour of the Imperial Academy.
The two stopped and walked along the way, strolling under the mottled shadow of the trees. Qin Zhaoci stopped from time to time and turned her head to look at Ye Lianyin with a smile. The two walked on the green path of the campus, and their smiles were tainted with the aura of youth.
Their happy time was very short, and soon it was time for Ye Lianyin to go to class.
Qin Zhaoci sent her back to the classroom. After watching her enter the classroom, she immediately put away her smile and made a video call to Sun Sui.
"Secretary Sun, please help me investigate the performances of Xijue Li, the son of the Imperial Duke Celia, before and after he entered the Imperial Academy, as well as his various past behaviors. After the investigation is completed, send me a summary of it.”
Sun Sui didn't know when Qin Zhaoci had an intersection with Celia, but she quickly agreed: "Okay, Ms. Xiao Qin."
“Oh, also, after we came back, the research institution I asked you to find, have you found it?" Qin Zhaoci continued to ask.
Sun Sui nodded: "I've already found it, but I haven't contacted them yet."
"Send me the address, I'll go there in person, I have time right now."
"Okay." Sun Sui immediately sent the location of the research institute to Qin Zhaoci.
After Qin Zhaoci confirmed it, she continued to ask: “How about the land I asked you to find last time?”
Sun Sui: "I have already asked the real estate company to look for it, and they should be able to give the result soon. Oh, by the way, Ms. Xiao Qin, the three-story villa you said you wanted, a company has taken over the project, when will your graphic plan come out?"
"A company took over of it already? Secretary Sun, you are very efficient." Qin Zhaoci didn't expect Sun Sui to be so efficient in doing things. She had already finished what she had just ordered yesterday."Then this week, I will draw the design as soon as possible."
"Okay." Sun Sui nodded, "Ms. Xiao Qin, do you have any other orders?"
Qin Zhaoci shook her head: "That's all for now, thank you for your hard work."
Sun Sui nodded slightly: "I should be."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Zhaoci quickly came to the parking lot of Imperial Academy and drove to the research institute.
Before entering the institution, Qin Zhaoci collected soil and water quality samples from the space. After labeling them, Qin Zhaoci wrote down the corresponding samples one by one, and then took the samples collected in the Pastoral planet in the past two days, as well as the soil and water quality samples from the Empire. Then, she walked into the research institute.
The research institute of the Empire was very efficient. After the payment was completed, Qin Zhaoci only waited for three hours at the research institute before getting the research report.
There are also specialized researchers explaining to Qin Zhaoci.
“In the samples you brought, according to the serial number you marked, we divided them into samples No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3.”
Sample No. 1 = from the Space
Sample No. 2 = from the Pastoral planet
Sample No. 3 = from the Empire
“There are as many as 20 kinds of samples in the sample No. 2, and we have all classified them. You see, this is a 2-1, which means that it's the first of the sample No. 2. Do you understand?”
"Yes." said Qin Zhaoci Nodded, "Continue."
“Okay." the researcher nodded. "We first analyzed the sample No. 2 with the largest number of samples. According to our analysis, the soil is mainly rich in minerals, organic matter, living organisms, inorganic matter, moisture and air. In the 20 samples you brought, the soil structure types are also different. You see, this is a specific classification.”
“Overall, the sample No. 2 you collected should be a sample belonging to the same planet, and there is not much difference except for the soil structure and their characteristics.”
“The soil composition of sample No. 1 is very similar to that of No. 2, but the material of sample No. 1 may be more abundant. The biological activity is very high. In addition to microorganisms, there are also organic matter produced by the decomposition of animal carcasses, which is very suitable for the growth of plants."
Qin Zhaoci grasped the point of the researcher's words: “So, is the soil of the sample No. 2 suitable for the growth of plants?"
The researcher nodded: "According to the structure, No. 2 is also suitable, but it may need to be modified accordingly."
"As for sample No. 3, it should be a soil sample of the Empire. Compared with sample No. 1, the soil of the Empire is not so rich in minerals, and the soil of the Empire has some different characteristics from the first two.”
"What kind of characteristic?" Qin Zhaoci was a little curious.
"Growth, the Empire's soil can accelerate the growth of plants, which is what the first two samples lacked."
When she heard this, Qin Zhaoci seemed to understand why the taste of the vegetables grown in the Empire was so much different from that in space.
"What about the water quality?" Qin Zhaoci continued to ask.
Researcher: "In terms of water quality, there is no big difference among the three, but again, the water quality of sample No. 1 contains a high content of mineral components, and the content of the Imperial is the least, followed by sample No. 2."
"Hmm, I see." After getting the answer she wanted, Qin Zhaoci took all the reports and all the unused samples, thanked the researchers, turned and left the research institute.
After leaving the institute, it was just about time for class to be held, and Qin Zhaoci hurriedly drove to the Imperial Academy.
"What kind of report is this?" After arriving in the classroom, Bai Qingci was suddenly attracted by the report that Qin Zhaoci didn't have time to sort out.
Qin Zhaoci was taken aback for a moment, and wanted to put away the report, but felt that doing so was a bit of a cover-up, so after thinking about it, she generously showed the report to Bai Qingci.
"Which planet's soil sample is this?" Bai Qingci flipped through the data.
"Well, it's the planet I went to on a business trip these past two days. What's the matter, Teacher Bai?" Qin Zhaoci looked at Bai Qingci, wanting to see if she had any opinions.
Bai Qingci frowned and looked through the pages. After a moment of silence, she said: “This sample No. 1 is quite suitable for plant growth. It's the first time I have seen soil with such a high mineral content and the sample No. 2 looks okay too. Do you still have any samples left?”
“Um, does Teacher Bai want to research about it?" Qin Zhaoci was a little curious.
Bai Qingci nodded: "I just happened to be writing a paper recently about the influence of the soil environment on plant growth. I am still doing related experiments. I just need several sets of different soil samples. If you still have this sample, can you give me some?"
"Mhm, I do have some more." Qin Zhaoci nodded, took off her backpack full of samples, opened it to Bai Qingci, "it's all here."
“Teacher Bai, you can take it if you need it, but can I go and see your experiment? I want to see how you do your research.”
“Okay." Bai Qingci nodded, “Then come to Imperial Academy tomorrow morning, wait for me outside the laboratory building, and I will take you into the laboratory.”
"Can I go in too?" Qin Zhaoci raised her eyebrows, a little surprised, "Didn't you say that I need to be a student from Imperial Academy?"
Bai Qingci shook her head: "Graduate students have the right to bring a person into the laboratory, but if something goes wrong, the graduate student will bear all the responsibilities, so don't mess with the things in the laboratory tomorrow, ask me first if you have anything to do."
"Okay, no problem," Qin Zhaoci immediately nodded and agreed, "I won't cause trouble."
"Okay." Bai Qingci looked intently at the samples in Qin Zhaoci's backpack, and sorted them out one by one according to the number on the report.
Qin Zhaoci looked at her focused appearance, and vaguely felt that there would be some unexpected gains tomorrow.
......
"Ye Lianyin, Teacher Bai said today that she can take me to the laboratory tomorrow to have a look." On the way home, Qin Zhaoci couldn't help but share today's event with Ye Lianyin.
"Really?" Ye Lianyin was a little puzzled, "But haven't you just learned a little? How could she allow you to enter the laboratory?"
Qin Zhaoci: "Probably because I gave her the soil samples I brought back from Pastoral Star. She said she was doing related experiments recently and I want to see if Teacher Bai can research something different."
Ye Lianyin understood: "That's good, learn more about it."
"Mhm." Qin Zhaoci nodded with a smile, looking forward to tomorrow.
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Ye Lianyin thought about the experiment that had failed again today, pondered for a while, and pursed her lips then said, "Qin Zhaoci, I might not be able to go to the classroom to wait for you tomorrow."
"Really? Why? Are you busy?" Qin Zhaoci turned to look at Ye Lianyin, her eyes were full of concern.
Ye Lianyin nodded then shook her head: "It's just about something else. It's only been a year since I entered Imperial Academy. Recently, I did an experiment in home design laboratory and I found that my professional knowledge is really lacking a lot, so I have been thinking about it for the past two days if I could find a classmate who majored in home design to help me."
“It's okay for someone to help you." Qin Zhaoci blinked, “Have you figured out who to ask to help you?"
Ye Lianyin nodded: "Well, recently I went to borrow the home design laboratory and met Lin Jiayi several times. She is a junior and has an excellent professional skills. I was wondering if I could ask her to help me make up classes just like you did.”
"Sure." Qin Zhaoci nodded, “You can ask her if she would like to, and I'll pay for the class."

Qin Zhaoci: “I'm a little fool who lures a love rival into the house.”
"Is that so?" Qin Zhaoci nodded thoughtfully, "So there are no princes and princesses now in the Empire studying at the Imperial Academy?"
