Chapter 71
Hanlin Academy.

Sunlight pours into the quiet courtyard, and the central sundial reflects the noon reflection.

The breeze is gentle, the bamboo shadows are whirling, and the footsteps step on the bluestone road steps, driving away two birds fluttering among the bamboos, and startling the mottled light and shadow on the ground to float violently.

Under the eaves, there was a low-pitched greeting.

"Senior Brother Wang."

Glancing at the closed door, Wang Shuming stopped in front of the carved window lattice, pointed to the quiet house, focused his eyes on four or five students squatting down, and asked softly.

"The teacher hasn't left the house yet?"

In the eyes, the squatting figure did not answer, and the five black heads shook again and again.

Sitting on the cold stone slab, Wang Shuming sat in the line of waiting figures, frowning and making noise.

"Since I went to the subject yesterday, the teacher has been behind closed doors. Today, the three mathematics teachers came after hearing the news, and have not left until now."

"It's a bad omen."

The round fat head squeezed closer, staring at the small mung bean eyes, quite mysterious.

"Last night, the teacher held the lamp in the bamboo house all night, so he must have stayed up all night."

"Tell me, is this topic too difficult?"

The phalanx knocked on the round head, and the figure beside him glanced at the bamboo house behind him, turned his head, and lowered his voice.

"Difficult? How difficult is it?"

"Our teacher is the pinnacle of Chinese arithmetic, can't solve the problem given by Li Xian?"

"An ignorant kid, how difficult can his questions be?"

Someone frowned, shook his head, and sighed softly.

"Well, maybe, although Li Xian is an unknown soldier, he is an ordinary person. However, before the residence of the Prince of Jin, Li Xian also stated that these are the topics in the ancient calculation book."

"An isolated copy of ancient calculations is rare in the world, and it is reasonable to squeeze in difficult titles."

"In my opinion, it is definitely not easy to trap four masters of arithmetic."

As soon as the voice fell, the previous figure was obviously dissatisfied, and he pointed his finger at the man's cheek and asked.

"What do you mean by that? Do you think our teacher can't answer this question? Or do you think that Mr. Liu is no better than Li Xian?"

To be honest, no one is still unwilling!
It was hard for people who were originally lofty and revered to be oppressed by a nameless and hopeless kid for no reason.

Noisy rising, quite ear-piercing.

"enough!"

A low and angry shout interrupted the noise, and Wang Shuming glared at the crowd.

"Always concentrate on studying, but you are here to make irresponsible remarks, what's the point?"

Under the harsh reprimand, the five students bowed their heads and remained silent.

The tranquility under the eaves was restored again, but everyone was thinking about their own thoughts, and their moods were inevitably a little depressed.

Speaking of which, Wang Shuming's heart is even heavier at the moment.

This matter started because of him, Mr. Liu stepped forward, and the students helped to fuel the flames. The battle has already been established, and this is definitely not the time to bow your head and admit defeat.

What's more, if I live in the Prince Jin's mansion by myself, and Li Xian bows his head and sees him, if he is completely defeated, what face will he have?

"At the end of the day, that kid is just showing off with an isolated copy of an ancient book. Maybe he didn't answer this question!"

Earlier, the fat student was upset and began to chatter.

As soon as these words came out, the students beside him immediately echoed.

"That's true! Then Li Xian is just relying on his own book, how much real talent can he have?"

"Yes! How about a few of us confront him face-to-face to find out the truth? Then push around and ask if he knows the answer to this question?"

Wang Shuming's face was solemn and he spoke in a low voice as the big palm pressed the crowd again.

"Prince Jin's Mansion is heavily guarded, but it's actually a place where you can come and go freely."

Standing up slowly, Wang Shuming condescendingly glanced at everyone, brushed off the dust on his clothes, and raised his eyebrows.

"Leave this task to me!"

"You guys, just wait for the good news. I want to see what this kid is capable of."

……

Jin Wangfu.

The sky was clear and cloudless.

The sun slanted against the window, and Li Xian fulfilled his wish to live a life of salted fish. He woke up naturally, and the desk, cakes, oil and tea were all available.

Even when he got up and opened the door, some maidservants came in with clean water washbasins.

Originally, there were two pretty maids who were in charge of daily life and changing clothes. Due to the "conservative" thinking of later generations, Li Xian still declined.

Li Zhi had been waiting for a long time, Li Xian waved his arms and called Li Zhi in front of the door to come and eat together.

"His Royal Highness Jin Wang doesn't have to wait for my Li Xian's homework from now on. You can enjoy flowers and birds, play and play, and we can study at noon."

Li Zhi, holding the sweet-scented osmanthus pastry, waved his hands repeatedly and shook his head.

"Master is respectful, Li Zhi can wait."

"The stepmother once said that the plan for a day lies in the morning, and the hour of the morning is a good time to practice, and time must not be wasted."

"If Teacher Li agrees, Li Zhi will review his homework first and wait later."

Lifting his hand to support Li Zhi's head, Li Xian nodded slightly.

Everyone in the world knows that the prince is well-clothed and well-fed, pampered and pampered.But who knows that being in the royal family is destined to be a dragon and phoenix among people, and even the carefree childhood will be filled with schoolwork and etiquette?

Suddenly, Li Xian felt sorry for the eight-year-old child.

"That's good. When I have free time, I can pass on to you a set of three-character scriptures for me to memorize."

"Three Character Classic?"

Shui Ling's eyes were filled with starlight, she raised her immature face to stare at Li Xian, and said happily.

"Mr. Li, this Three Character Classic has never been heard before. What's so special about it?"

Those who are used to memorizing are also unfamiliar words and sentences, but Li Zhi is very curious about such novelty things.

Li Xian swallowed the sweet and greasy pastry, wiped the residue from the corner of his mouth, and smiled loudly.

"The three-character scripture has a lot of origin, three-character sentence, easy to understand, and catchy."

"Contains astronomy and geography, loyalty, filial piety, righteousness, and many interesting allusions."

"In the future, as a teacher, I will talk to you in detail."

Hearing this, Wei Nuo Nuo finally got a little excited, put down the pastry, and asked curiously.

"Mr. Li, those calculation questions are based on your reference to the isolated book, so is this Three Character Classic?"

Meeting the respectful eyes, Li Xian frowned, coughed lightly, and said solemnly.

"It's...it's okay."

Suddenly, Li Zhi's eyes were filled with admiration, and a blush of excitement rose on his cheeks.

"Mr. Li has read extensively, and the things he read extensively are all unique books in the world. Li Zhi really admires him."

"This time, Li Zhi will rely on his master's teachings and study hard!"

A child who has been immersed in the preset rules since he was a child, his every word, deed, and every action is bound by the royal norms. At this moment, he can suddenly find novelty and novelty. Li Xian can feel the joy in his heart.

Thinking about this, he threw away the willow stick in the silver plate, Li Xian acted like a magic trick, took out two toothbrushes, handed one to Li Xian, and said with a slight smile.

"This is a meeting gift from the teacher to you. It is for brushing your teeth after three meals a day."

Previously, the Three-Character Sutra had made Li Xian extremely happy, but this time he was overjoyed when he saw the unique shape.

Solemnly took the toothbrush, the tentacles are soft, the hairs are fine, the roots are clear, it is as delicate as a royal treasure.

The little face blushed for a moment, and he hurriedly bowed his hands and saluted, thanking him again and again.

In fact, it is very painful for Li Xian to exchange the things of later generations, but before reading his mansion, when Li Zhi relied on his weak body to scold all the students of the Imperial Academy for himself, he was still a little moved.

Diseases emerged endlessly in the imperial family of the Tang Dynasty. The princesses and princes all died short-lived, half of them died young.

Li Xian had a sudden whim, and sent some things that were good for his health, just hoping that the future King of the Tang Dynasty would have a healthy body.

The repeated surprises also made the master and apprentice no longer so depressed. Seeing Xing Xing holding a toothbrush and carefully sizing up the figure, Li Xian smiled and said in his heart.

"Perhaps in this foreign country, I have a second heart-to-heart friend."
