Huanzhu's love life

The time after that was just listening to the master's lectures on the Four Books.Then a tasteless lunch with nothing new to tell.

The afternoon class is an "elective" subject with many items, such as calligraphy, painting or archery, cloth library.The schoolchildren no longer concentrated on their studies, and scattered in groups of three or five, each doing his own thing.

Little Swallow was thinking about Qianlong's geometry problem.She stopped a young eunuch serving tea and asked him to lead him to a teacher who taught geometry.When I arrived at the destination, I saw an old man with gray beard sitting in the corner and taking a nap, and there was only one young man sitting by the window, as if he was solving a problem.

Was that boy one of the schoolchildren who came to school?Little Yanzi didn't remember that there was such a number one person in the school in the morning.The young man's figure is slightly thin, but his features are clear and there is no makeup.

Compared with appearance, what attracted Xiao Yanzi's eyes more was probably that this person's feeling was different from the elder brother and clan children she met in the school in the morning.

Little Swallow temporarily put aside geometry and the master, feasting his eyes is the most important thing.

But her luck in this regard has always been bad, and this time is no exception.

There was a sudden burst of cheers in the yard, and it was extremely noisy. "Fifth elder brother is good at archery!" and "No. [-] in the palace" and other sour flattering voices came wave after wave.

Little Yanzi complained in his heart, if his archery skills are as good as yours, as for shooting himself into the palace with an arrow?Of course, the person shot was not strictly speaking "herself".

The boy who was doing geometry put down his pen amidst the noise, stood up and went straight out the door.

Little Yanzi shook her head regretfully, turned around and saw that the old man who was dozing just now had also woken up, so she leaned over and asked, "Who is that person?"

Fortunately, the old man was able to understand the question without beginning or end, and he said, "That's the son of Mr. Fu's family."

Little Swallow let out an "oh", thinking, could it be that he is the legendary Fukang'an?

The old man asked her: "Are you returning the Pearl, right? The emperor said that you will definitely come here this afternoon."

Little Yanzi smiled and said, "Can Huang Ama know fortune-telling?"

The old man also laughed and said: "The emperor said that you will never be willing to be foolish."

Little Swallow said: "Then I have to be able to figure it out—I mean geometry. Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you a teacher of geometry?"

The old man said: "I don't dare to be a master, I'm just a jobless idler temporarily staying in the Qin Tianjian."

Little Yanzi glanced at him in surprise, seeing that although his beard and hair were grizzled, his eyes were not clouded, so he laughed and said, "An idler without a job can sleep peacefully in the palace. You are better than the master."

The old man kept bowing and said: "Don't dare to be, dare not be. How can Gege be compared to the royal master? Zhe Sha, Zhe Sha."

Seeing this, Little Swallow couldn't help sighing: "It's such a troublesome identity."

The old man said: "The geometry problem is much simpler than the 'identity'."

Little Yanzi smiled and said, "You're coaxing me again."

The old man said: "Arithmetic and geometry are not esoteric things, they are just a language. It is easier than learning a foreign language."

Little Yanzi laughed out loud: "So Huang Ama learned it from you." Seeing that the old man didn't understand, Little Yanzi explained: "Huang Ama also told me similar things."

The old man also laughed, and then said: "Did he tell you how mathematics can satisfy intelligence?"

Little Swallow remained silent.Throughout the years of school, it was always the use of intellect, trading it for grades, and continuing to use it after school to earn necessities and luxuries.After living for so long, when did I have the opportunity to really enjoy the happiness brought by pure intelligence?

The old man said again: "Besides, as I said just now, geometry problems are much purer, clearer and simpler than those problems of identity and title you just entangled with."

Little Yanzi asked: "You persuaded Huang Ama in the same way at the beginning?"

The old man said: "Not as much as today."

Little Swallow smiled embarrassedly after hearing this.

The old man said again: "The emperor once said that when he encountered a problem that he couldn't solve, he would do a few geometry problems, hoping to make his mind clearer."

Little Yanzi's heart moved, and she said gratefully and regretfully: "Thank you. But I can only come to the school today."

The old man said: "Why do you have to go to school to learn knowledge? If you make up your mind, you can come to Qintianjian to find me at any time."

Little Yanzi nodded, and asked again: "But I still don't know how to address you?"

The old man smiled and said: "You can go to Qintianjian and look for old man Chen."

Little Yanzi was full of doubts, but it was hard to ask further questions.Seeing the setting sun, I had no choice but to say goodbye to the old man and leave the school.

She walked all the way and thought about it, the old man just now had an extraordinary bearing, and there was no "consciousness" of being a courtier that even Ji Xiaolan could not avoid in his words, and he did not call himself an old minister or an old slave. How could he serve the emperor's family without losing his dignity? Really mysterious tight.And that boy...

"Garge!"

Little Yanzi came back to her senses and saw Mingyue smiling and waving at her at the base of the wall.

Mingyue only said that Little Swallow got up early to go to school, and then went home after school in the evening, two o'clock and one line, simple and calm.On the contrary, she herself, Caixia, Xiao Dengzi, and Xiao Zhuozi were busy moving from morning to night, and assigning rough envoys, court ladies and eunuchs.
