Tang's dining table

Li Hong took Li Xian to see Yun Chu, just hoping that there would be a possibility that Li Xian could be accepted by his master and become a disciple of the Yun family.

This is what he thinks, and this is what his mother and father also expect.

He knew this was going to be difficult.

The master does not seem to want to recruit too many disciples, and the master is not very satisfied with him, the founding disciple, and the only female disciple Li Si. Compared with the three children, Yun Jin, Wen Huan, and Di Guangsi, Li Xian is quite impressive. insufficient.

Of course, the master can see through his thoughts at a glance. If he doesn't refuse, he is giving face to his disciple. The most important thing is that the master does not accept idiots under his disciples, but Li Xian doesn't care whether he looks at it, smells it, or touches it. Like a fool.

After all, he showed off his stubbornness, and the master just gave him everyone's test papers. This was obviously to make Li Xian give up when he saw the difficulty, and also to make his mother give up when she saw the difficulty.

The intellectuals of the prominent families in the Tang Dynasty all had IQ requirements when recruiting disciples. Li Hong considered himself a smart child, so he could understand his master's requirements and learn the knowledge taught by his master.

It's a pity that he is a prince. A prince cannot just learn one kind of knowledge. He needs to be eclectic. He needs to be immersed in a variety of knowledge before he can come up with his own opinions and knowledge.

He always felt very sorry about this matter, because only he, the founding disciple, knew how many remarkable things the master's treasure trove of knowledge contained.

Li Hong naturally characterized his behavior of grabbing his master's clothes when he was a baby as precocious wisdom. Therefore, looking at the stupid Li Xian, he couldn't help but feel disgusted.

Master only wants smart children and does not want stupid children. It is not that he dislikes stupid children, but that children who are not smart cannot learn at all and cannot learn the knowledge taught by Master.

According to what he had asked his master before, how long would it take for them to learn this subject.

The master said that it takes at least sixteen years for a child who is enlightened at the age of four, learns well and learns quickly. If the child has perseverance and is not absent from study, he can study for another three years. If the child still feels that his knowledge is sufficient. The shortcomings still need to be learned...that will take a lifetime.

Although Wu Mei didn't know much about advanced knowledge, she was a real master of human relations. Just listening to Li Hong's story, Wu Mei knew that she wanted to send Li Xian and Li Dan to Yunchu's sect. I probably have to give up the idea of ​​studying.

Li Zhi came with the giant bear. When Mother Chun went there, he was watching singing and dancing in the animal skin hall. Twelve beautiful local women had just been dedicated to the place, and each of them was stunning.

He wanted to take a closer look before deciding what kind of reward or punishment he would give this good-hearted magistrate.

After looking at it, he found that although Caozhou was a small place, there were many beauties. At least, all of them looked similar to the queen.

This made him very unhappy. These beauties were indeed beauties, but when they all looked like queens, they were very uninteresting.

One of them is already too much for me to handle, and I have so many of them so that I can have the rhythm of a queen in my sleep.

Therefore, Emperor Li Zhi issued an order to reprimand the local officials who sent the beauties to the palace, saying that they had a bad habit of being civilized, timid, and martial arts, and they were fined for one year.

When Aunt Chun came in, she stood with those beauties. In Li Zhi's eyes, she didn't look inferior at all. He even felt that Aunt Chun's appearance, figure, etc. were better than these beauties.

Hearing from Aunt Chun that the Queen and the Prince invited him to the Queen's palace, Li Zhi felt a little strange. This was very rude. Even if they had something to do, it was only the two of them who came to the Animal Skin Palace to meet him.

However, he still went to the queen's palace with Aunt Chun.

After all, the person who came over was the queen's personal maid, not some female official. The queen sent her personal maid to invite him as the emperor. It was a wife calling her husband back to the back house, so what kind of a female official was that?

I see Aunt Chun a lot on weekdays, but this time I glanced at her and found that Aunt Chun had actually lost weight.

This glutton has actually lost weight, which makes Li Zhi feel a little incredible. He thought that when she was a nun, this girl was as thin as firewood. Every time she went to Ganye Temple to meet the Queen, she would always give her a thumbs up. The little girl brought some food, sometimes it was some cakes, sometimes it was a piece of meat, and then it was always meat, and the fatter the better.

Now, I actually have a waist.

"The queen won't let you eat again?" I was still willing to chat with Aunt Chun and Li Zhi.

"No, it's because I've had a bad appetite recently." Aunt Chun answered very cautiously.

Li Zhi saw that Grandma Chun's answer was a bit boring, so he stopped asking.

When he led the giant bear into the Queen's palace, he saw papers spread all over the floor. The Queen was stepping on these papers with her bare feet and seemed to be looking at them very seriously.

Li Zhi had poor eyesight, so naturally he couldn't see the words on it clearly, so Aunt Chun picked up a copy and held it up in front of the emperor for him to read.

By coincidence, what she picked up happened to be Li Si's Chinese studies paper. When he saw Li Si's signature and the blank "Chen Qing Biao", he couldn't help but said angrily: "How did An Ding learn? Even "Chen Qing" Can’t even memorize the table?

Queen, what did Yun Chu teach An Ding? The knowledge you should know at the age of ten is still nonsense at the age of fourteen..."

Wu Mei did not answer, but picked up Li Si's arithmetic paper from the ground, held it up to the emperor and said, "Look at this again."

Li Zhi seemed to have nodded for a long time and said: "Yes, yes, you can do such a difficult arithmetic correctly. It's amazing. The difficulty of this paper exceeds that of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic". From this point of view, Zhang Cang, the Marquis of Peking, should be smiling. "

Wu Mei remained silent and continued to hold up Li Si's papers for Li Zhi to see. As a result, Li Zhi became happy three times and angry six times.

"Also, Your Majesty's King of England went to Lantian Hou Yunchu to study, but he was rejected because he thought your son was stupid."

Li Zhi looked back at Li Xian, who was hiding behind Li Hong like a quail, and asked in confusion: "Is it because Xiang Nuer is stupid?"

Wu Mei nodded and said: "At present, this is the only reason."

Li Zhi nodded and said: "The Yun family has learned from the prince and Anding, so there is no intention of keeping it secret from the royal family. Compared with the prince and Anding, Xiang Nuer is indeed a bit stupid.

I also read it just now, and I couldn’t understand many things in it. It was indeed a bit difficult for Xiang Nuer to do these questions. Anyway, learning depends on a person’s understanding. You can’t just smash your head and pour it in. Yes, Xiang Nuer has no chance to study in the Yun family, so it’s okay not to study. "

Wu Mei leaned over and collected the papers on the ground one by one, not allowing Aunt Chun and the others to come forward. Finally, she held a pile of papers and said, "I am going to copy a few more papers and try them on other people's children. Let’s see if it’s stronger than Shannuer and Diazepam.”

Li Zhi sighed and said, "Be kind and kind, and don't cause trouble for Yun Chu."

Wu Mei shook her head and said, "I'm not looking for trouble. I just want to see if I can use this set of papers to select some smart kids to join the palace as companions for Xiang Nu'er and Sniffy Nose."

Li Zhi pointed at Wu Mei's nose and said, "Isn't this asking for trouble? If you use this set of papers, won't those noble families have to go to Yun Chu to ask for more papers?

If you act like this, the world will think that the royal family has a new view on learning. The old Confucian Kong Yingda is dead, but his son Kong Zhiyue is still alive. He is still offering wine at Hongwen Hall and is even more stubborn than his father. If you dare to show any signs that you want to change the royal culture, be careful that he crashes to death in front of you and makes you bleed all over. "

Wu Mei sneered and said, "Your Majesty, you think I am afraid of blood?"

Li Zhi said with a smile: "I'm afraid, so I should calm down and don't turn my comfortable days into awkward ones. I'm a patient now and I can't stand your indiscriminate tossing."

Li Hong said on the side: "Father, the mother's concerns are very reasonable. The reason why Lantian Hou Yunchu is unwilling to teach more disciples is not because he is worried that the Yun family's family knowledge will be leaked, but because he is worried that he is busy with government affairs and the professor will not come.

Both his father and mother knew about Lan Tianhou. He seemed to be modest, but in fact he was extremely proud. If his disciples could not benefit from him, he would be the most uncomfortable person, not others.

When the child was studying in the Yun family, it was common for Junhou to talk about his fate without mentioning his fate, and it was common for him to quote from other sources. Once, he mentioned the folk joke of dragging nine cows back.

The boy said that this was pure nonsense. As a result, the prince said that it was very easy. The boy was not a fool, so he naturally didn't believe it. Although the prince was brave enough to be unstoppable on the battlefield, the boy still didn't believe that he was stronger than Jiutou. The cow is even bigger.

The next day, Junhou got nine cows from the farm outside Chang'an City, and let the boy watch the tug-of-war between him and the nine cows.

As a result, he easily pulled the nine cows back by using some objects, and finally hung them up with one person's strength.

The child was so surprised that he stuffed his hands into his mouth and his eyes almost popped out of his head. However, the nine cows were all real cows, and they were all strong adult bulls. When the king hung him up, they were still kicking their hooves in the air. Mooing. "

Li Zhi and the Queen looked at each other and asked, "Really?"

Li Hong spread his hands and said, "My child has seen it with his own eyes."

Wu Mei frowned and said, "You were deceived by him."

Li Hong said with a smile: "In front of the nine hung cows, Junhou told the boy the principle of the pulley set for the first time. After the boy understood the principle, he added an extra set of pulleys. Then, the boy could also Not only can it pull nine cows back easily, it can also be hung on a shelf."

Wu Mei looked at Li Hong and said, "It's all nonsense."

Li Zhi was speechless, and after a while he said: "It seems that there is such a thing. Yun Chu once wrote in a memorial that craftsmen invented a new lifting device that can drag huge rocks up to the city wall with one person's power.

I approved the word "nonsense" at that time, and my subordinates immediately took it and burned it. So, this matter is actually true? "

Li Hong said with a smile: "Fortunately, the four characters that my father reviewed were burned by the province. If the prince had obtained them, it would not have put my child in a life-and-death dilemma as a student."
