The reincarnation of transmigration is king

After some treatment, Zhao Meng was carried aside to rest.

Only then did Ning Muxin step forward gracefully, and shouted loudly, "The second round is a battle of wits."

The little eunuch held a red lacquer tray, and Ning Muxin reached out and lifted the red cloth covering it, revealing a volume of books inside.

Opening the book, Ning Muxin casually flipped through a page and read: "The beauty of mountains and rivers lies in the forest, and the beauty of trees lies in the water..."

After reading a paragraph, close the page.Ning Muxin smiled and said: "It is not surprising that a scholar can do it with a single eye and ten lines. It is not surprising. This time the competition is not only to have a photographic memory, but also to clearly remember which page, which line, which row What is the number of the word in which column? If you can remember [-]%, you will win the game."

Ning Muxin bowed and played to Shi Hongsheng: "I'm not an official, I'm willing to compete in this round."

Shi Hongsheng nodded and said: "Good! Mr. Ning is knowledgeable and talented, and he will surely succeed immediately."

Satisfied, Ning Mu walked slowly to the center of the school grounds, "Master Dongli, please point out a book at random, and then test me, so as not to say that I am opportunistic and cheated from it."

Luo Ming discussed with Jiang Nianbai, since Ning Muxin dared to boast, he must have the ability.

"If it's a scroll I've read, as long as I mention the context, I don't need to read it, and I can remember what was written in which line and column. Ning Muxin is the right minister of Beimang. I talked with him twice along the way. He has outstanding literary talent, erudition and strong knowledge, if we only use books to test him, we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to win."

Hearing Jiang Nianbai's words, Luo Ming felt troubled, and asked, "When it comes to literary talent and knowledge, you will definitely not lose to him. You will fight in this round, okay?"

Jiang Nianbai thought for a while, he and Ning Muxin could draw a tie, but just now Shi Hongsheng tricked Zhao Meng, they have already lost for a while, if this round is tied again, then the next match will be a draw. more difficult.In this match, they can only win but not lose.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Nianbai suddenly turned his gaze to Liu Yan, and said happily, "Yes!"

Everyone was puzzled, and followed Jiang Nianbai's gaze to Liuyan, asking, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Nianbai unfolded the folding fan in his hand, shook it twice, and said with a smile: "You guys have forgotten that Liu Yan has the ability of photographic memory, wouldn't it be just right for him to try this competition!"

Liu Yan hurriedly waved his hands, "If you want me to memorize numbers, people's names, and dead objects, I'm good at things like that. If you test me with a book, you won't succeed."

Jiang Nianbai said with a smile: "Why not? You are too humble. I tried you twice the year before last. Your skills are so strong that even I feel inferior. That's it. You will play this battle!"

Liu Yan was sweating in a hurry: "No, I can't..."

Luo Ming comforted Liu Yan, and said with a smile, "Just listen to Zhongqing!"

Jiang Nianbai nodded, stood up, and went to negotiate with Ning Muxin: "Master Ning is a talented person, and it's really a trick to test the contents of your book. Why don't you change the subject and test Master Ning's intelligence?" ?”

Ning Muxin has always been conceited, and he is also somewhat dissatisfied with Jiang Nianbai. He thinks that literati look down on each other, and he wants to compete with Jiang Nianbai intentionally or unintentionally.In this battle of wits, he expected that Dongli would definitely send Jiang Nianbai to fight, so he asked Shi Hongsheng for orders to fight, and he also intended to compete with Jiang Nianbai.

"I don't know what question Master Jiang wants to ask?"

Jiang Nianbai said with a smile: "It's not difficult, just settle accounts and recognize people."

Ning Muxin sneered: "Master Jiang, such a child's play is also used to test the official? Are you really thinking about it?"

"Naturally, I've thought it through." Jiang Nianbai turned to the martial arts viewing platform on the east side of the school grounds, bowed and said, "Master Shi, I want to ask Lord Shi to pick twelve maids from the harem at will."

When Shi Hongsheng saw Jiang Nianbai at this time, he felt pleasing to the eye, so there was no reason to disobey, so he hurriedly ordered the servant: "Go to the harem and pick twelve beautiful ones."

The servants retreated under orders, and after a while, they brought twelve maids with them. These twelve maids were all fifteen or sixteen years old, and they all wore royal blue palace attire, with ring buns on their heads.

The maids stood shaking their clothes, and for some unknown reason they were called to the martial arts arena. Thinking of Shi Hongsheng's cruelty, he loved to kill people for pleasure, and became even more frightened. Twelve of them crowded together, and the timid ones were already crying.

"Please choose twelve groups of numbers at will, each group consists of ten numbers, and hand them over to the twelve maids, and then these twelve maids will hold them and disperse them to various places in the imperial garden. For the competition, please enter the imperial garden, find the twelve maids, memorize the numbers in their hands, and then go back to the school martial arts field, calculate clearly, and report the total, whoever counts accurately and quickly will win."

Jiang Nianbai bowed and said with a smile: "Master Shi, isn't it much more interesting than just comparing the elegance of the words in the book?"

Shi Hongsheng clapped his knees again and again, and said happily: "It's really interesting! Just as Mr. Jiang said. Come here, quickly write down twelve groups of numbers and give them to the maid."

After the arrangements were made, the ladies of the court also dispersed and hid in various parts of the imperial garden.

Ning Muxin asked Jiang Nianbai and said, "Master Jiang, we have to argue over who will come first!"

Jiang Nianbai smiled slightly: "Nianbai has little talent and learning, and thinks he can't compare with Master Ning. In this round, it will be between Young Master Liuyan and Master Ning."

When Liu Yan heard him being called, she hurriedly stood up, straightened her clothes, and started to leave.

Luo Ming called him with a smile. When he saw Liu Yan turning around with a stiff face, he couldn't help being even more amused. He shook Liu Yan's hand and whispered: "Don't be afraid, if you lose, you will lose. Everything is up to me." Woolen cloth!"

Liu Yan twitched the corners of her mouth, her smile was ugly, but she still said firmly: "We must win!"

Luo Ming liked it in his heart, the more critical it was, the more reliable Liu Yan was.Holding his palm, put it to his lips and kissed: "I'm waiting for you!"

Liu Yan's face turned red all of a sudden, and she hurriedly looked around, seeing that Dongli's generals were pretending not to see, either lowering their heads or looking away, her heart became even more flustered, her face turned even redder, and she said angrily, "Don't mess around!"

Luo Ming kissed again: "Go!"

After being pestered by Luo Ming, Liu Yan felt much more relaxed and didn't feel scared anymore.With a calm expression, he entered the school martial arts arena, came to Ning Muxin, and gave a half-respect: "Master Ning!"

Ning Muxin was furious, he recognized Liu Yan, isn't this Luo Ming's favorite boy?Dong Li is simply too deceitful, he is a dignified first-rank official, and he wants to compete with a male favorite?

Secretly thought that this must be Jiang Nianbai's sinful idea out of revenge, he couldn't hide, but instead sent out a male favorite to compete with himself, this was not to make fun of him to embarrass him.

Ning Muxin stared at Liuyan, his face was livid, and he had already scolded Luo Ming and Jiang Nianbai behind his back, but without losing his grace, he asked kindly, "How does Mr. Liuyan want to compete?"

Liu Yan smiled and said: "Liu Yan's status is low, and he dare not stand shoulder to shoulder with Master Ning, so please ask Master Ning to enter the imperial garden first, and Liu Yan will come later."

Ning Muxin laughed twice, and said coldly: "No need! No matter how bad I am, I won't take advantage of you, a little boy. Let's go in together, it's fair and reasonable."

Liu Yan responded with a smile, and followed the angry Ning Muxin to the Imperial Garden.

The maids had already hid behind the flower trees. Liu Yan and Ning Muxin searched around the corridor. Every time they found a court lady, the court lady would open the booklet in her hand, and there were ten numbers written vertically inside. , but in the blink of an eye, the maid put away the booklet, and the two of them were not allowed to read it or memorize it.

People's memory is generally time-sensitive. If you want to remember something, you often need to repeat the memory and deepen the impression repeatedly. If you glance at it like this, you may not even see it clearly if you have bad eyesight, let alone remember.

What's more, Liu Yan and Ning Muxin had to travel half of the imperial garden to find the twelve maids. It would take about half an hour just to walk, and during this period, they were not allowed to write down the numbers they just memorized. It is particularly easy to confuse the numbers seen in the back over the previous ones, or simply remember the new and forget the old, which adds to the difficulty.

Ning Muxin secretly observed Liuyan along the way, and when he saw him, he didn't bother to remember it, and walked along the way, as if he didn't enter the garden to compete at all, but just an ordinary garden tour, watching while walking, enjoying the garden. scenery.I couldn't help but wonder, and the contempt just now gradually subsided.

Back at the school grounds, someone had already arranged two desks with all the four treasures of the study on them, just waiting for Liu Yan and Ning Muxin to start calculating the sum of twelve sets of numbers.

Ning Muxin stepped forward quickly, listed each of the twelve groups of numbers in detail, and then counted them carefully. He was very busy.

Liu Yan glanced to the side, lowered her head, picked up the pen and paper, swiped on the paper, and wrote down a series of numbers. After waiting for a while, seeing that Ning Muxin hadn't finished counting, she sighed and held up the rice paper in her hand. , loudly said: "Forget it!"

Ning Muxin turned pale with shock, he hadn't even finished half of the calculations, but Liu Yan had already counted them, how, how could this be possible.

Jiang Nianbai stepped forward, first patted Liuyan on the shoulder, smiled appreciatively, then turned his head, and said fiercely: "Master Ning, don't worry, although it is agreed that the first is to win, but I am considerate of Mr. Ning's age." I'm already tall, so I'm bound to be confused, so I'll win by counting accurately. Master Ning counts slowly, we have plenty of free time, even if we wait for a month, we can still afford to wait!"

Ning Muxin was a little flustered when he saw that Liu Yan had settled so soon, but when he heard Jiang Nianbai's derogatory remarks, he became even more anxious, and his hands trembled a little.It took him a long time to calm down before he regained his composure, ignored the people next to him, and began to calculate quietly.

After an appointment for a cup of tea, Ning Muxin raised his head and let out a long breath.It was finally done.

Shi Hongsheng said: "Report the number, and Master Gao who gave the question will check it."

Liu Yan and Ning Muxin spoke at the same time, reporting: "Thirteen thousand five sixty eight."

"Thirteen thousand six seventy two."

When the numbers were reported, Ning Muxin sneered and said, "What's the use of calculating quickly, with so many mistakes, Dongli will lose this match!"
