The last competition of the six arts is arithmetic.

At the Hongwen Hall, Changsun Chong squeezed the little kid's shoulders and patted her back, while Yuchi Baoqi fed her some water and fanned her.

When the gong sounded for the student's dismissal, Changsun Chong patted her on the back: "Go ahead and let them see the strength of our Hongwen Hall!"

Yuan Yuan nodded solemnly, ran to the competition area with short legs, found a place and sat down cross-legged.

There was faint laughter all around.

Yuchi Baoqi quickly caught up with her, picked up the whole cub, and placed her in the front row where the Hongwen Hall students sat.

This is a central position specially arranged to take into account her short size.

Yuan Yuan covered her chubby face shyly.

The students were ready, sitting in a circle in the middle of the seats, and a young man walked in.

He is a Ph.D. from the Imperial College of Computer Science and the question reader for this competition.

All the students picked up their pens and were ready to race against time to calculate the questions as soon as they finished listening to them.

Yuan Yuandong looked around and grabbed the brush on the table.

Although she cannot write, she is gregarious.

The person who read the question asked: "A pound of silk now costs 240. Now I have a fortune of 320. How much is the silk?"

Yuan Dacongming had been trained in the school to answer questions. Almost as soon as the other party finished speaking, she immediately answered loudly: "Five pounds, eight liang, 12 baht, three-quarters of a baht!"

The other students looked at the question reader in surprise.

The question reader was also shocked and turned to look at the great mathematician on the judging table.

Soon, a small red flag was raised over there.

"Hongwenguan has a question."

Before everyone could be shocked, the little boy stood up happily and wiggled his butt: "Wow, wow, wow, Yuanyuan is so awesome!!!"

Later, Chang Sun Chong raised his voice to remind her: "Manner, manner!!!"

The little guy sat cross-legged obediently again, but his calves were swaying under the table.

The question reader glanced at the little boy and turned a page in the question book: "Today there is one acre of field, and the harvest of millet is six or half a liter. Now there is one hectare of field, 26 acres, 150 nine steps. How much is the harvest of millet?"

As soon as he finished speaking again, the little boy answered loudly: "Eight dendrobiums, four buckets, four liters, five tenths of a liter!!!"

After answering the question, he would hit the table with his little hands, and the ink on the brush would be thrown everywhere.

The whole hall was really shocked. People who didn't know about it even began to wonder whether Hongwen Hall had obtained the question book in advance.

Sure enough, the judges' table raised the flag again.

A student of Guozixue stood up and said, "Student, I have a question here. Could you please give me some advice?"

Yuan Yuan was still shaking her legs in her seat, unaware that others were questioning her ability.

Until the question reader obtains the consent of the judges, he takes the student's question.

"Today there is a well with a diameter of five feet, but I don't know its depth. Put a five-foot log on top of the well, and look at the water bank from the end of the wood. The diameter is four inches. How deep is the well?"

Yuan Qing couldn't help complaining about not practicing martial ethics and bullying children.

Previously it was multiplication and division, but this question requires an equation! How can a little kid know that?

Yuan Yuan thought it was the next question, but when she saw that the students and brothers across from her stopped using their pens to calculate, they all looked at her.

Everyone in the main hall looked at her.

Yuan Yuan scratched his chin, paused, and finally said the answer: "Five feet, seven feet, five inches."

The student who asked the question knew the answer. He looked very frustrated, and everyone knew the result.

Only then did everyone know why Hongwen Hall only recommended one representative to participate in the arithmetic competition.

This is a big killer...

When Yuan Yuan saw that everyone was no longer looking at her, she shook her head happily and waved her little hands by her side like wings.

Little did she know that after today, she would become famous in Kyoto.

Although the outcome has obviously been decided, the ten agreed questions still have to be completed according to the procedure.

As expected, the rest was dominated by the little prodigy. In the last two questions, the other students failed to answer the questions and even stopped holding their pens.

If you think about it, there's no shame in it. If you lose, others won't win either.

The top three in other subjects were judged. In their subject, the little boy won the first place, and everyone else was in second place.

After the last question was finished, the question reader knocked the gong on the right, and the arithmetic competition ended.

Yuan Yuan ran around the hall happily: "Wow wow wow, Yuan Yuan is going to be a high official!!!"

As soon as these words came out, many people's expressions changed.

The top students in each subject can indeed be recommended to the Imperial College as teaching assistants. They can still study in the original college and go to the Imperial College once every fifth day to assist the academic officers in teaching professional knowledge.

Although the official rank is low, it is equivalent to entering the official position in advance.

But let’s not say that women cannot be officials, it would be outrageous for such a small child to be a teaching assistant.

As the "owner" of the Hongwen Pavilion, Yu Shinan sat next to the Imperial Academy's sacrificial wine, which was a privilege for him.

In the Six Arts Competition, Hongwen Hall won four first places.

He, Yu, was indeed born to teach and educate people! ! !

Sure enough, the sacrificial wine on the side couldn't help but said: "Although these students come from different colleges, in the end they are all cultivating talents for the Tang Dynasty and His Majesty. I admire Mr. Yu for his rich knowledge and extensive knowledge of the past and present. You might as well go to other colleges to train talents for your Majesty." Can the students be reasonable?"

Yu Shinan stroked his beard: "I am nearly seventy years old, and I have more strength than strength..."

Taking on private work is another price! ! !

The sacrificial wine leaned forward slightly: "I have several Han Dynasty silk paintings in my hand, as well as the "Luo Shen Fu Tu", all of which are authentic."

Yu Shinan: Hey! ! !

"It's not like you can't spare one and a half days every ten days..."

After Yuan Yuan completed the task of the competition, he went to see his sister for some food and drinks.

She accidentally fell asleep during Uncle Yuchi's competition in the morning, and after that, she had to keep her eyes peeled for Brother Changsun's question-and-answer competition.

When the prince came over, he saw the little baby sleeping in his sister's arms, with his mouth open and there were crumbs of pastry around his mouth.

He was somewhat speechless and couldn't help but ask: "How many sleeps will I have to take this day?"

Children can sleep well too.

Yuan Qing held the little girl's head with her arms, almost stiff, and said helplessly: "I went to bed early last night, woke up at midnight, and played with chickens and bears until dawn."

Li Chengqian's mouth twitched.

"...Then go to sleep."

Later, the classics and history and policy questions were taken together. His Majesty also left the palace incognito, so he had to go down and accompany him.

I originally wanted to take the little kid to ask about the teaching assistant.

Li Shimin was sitting in a side room of the main hall, thinking about the little assistant.

He has still not reconciled since the last time his sleeves were "cut off" by the little kid.

How about giving the little guy a fake job to coax her?

He had already heard that the young lady showed off her magical powers in the arithmetic competition and answered the most questions.

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng aside, feeling a little hesitant. Not to mention the other admonishers, even Wei Zheng would have to spray him to death.

He thought for a while and tentatively said: "Xuancheng..."

Wei Zheng sneered in his heart, "Wei Xuancheng has something to do, but an old man has nothing to do."

Who isn’t already a temperamental baby?

Li Shimin: "This matter about the assistant professor of the Imperial College...there are some issues that I don't know whether to talk about..."

Wei Zheng's face was expressionless: "It's inappropriate to talk about it."

Li Shimin: "..."

Since the Shangyuan Festival issued orders to admonish officials at any time to standardize their words and deeds, Li Shimin would have several disputes with Wei Zheng a day.

Most of the time, Li Shimin gave in and accepted advice humbly.

He must be too kind to these admonishers! ! !

His Majesty the Emperor looked at Fang Xuanling: "Zhongshu Ling, prepare an edict for me. I order the first person to go to the Imperial College to serve in the Imperial College today."

Wei Zheng stood up and knelt in front of him: "If your Majesty insists on doing this, I..."

A dagger was thrown in front of him.

It was the dagger given to Li Shimin when he was granted the title of General Tiance. It can cut iron like clay.

Wei Zheng: "..."

"I would like to congratulate Your Majesty on these new talents. In time, these young gentlemen will surely achieve great things."

Fang Xuanling looked at him without words. Wei Zheng's face was calm, as steady as an old dog.
