little fool's child bride

Hong Bowen naturally didn't figure it out.

He asked people to copy down ten questions and send them to the Imperial Academy, but it took eight days for the group of old pedants not only to solve three of them, but when they handed in the answers, they held Hong Bowen with bright eyes and refused to let him go, saying yes. Must meet the person who made this question.Hong Bowen was so angry that his head hurt, even Rong Zijin, who was usually scared, dared to hate——

"Those old things are really useless! A teaching assistant can't solve the problem, it's ridiculous!"

Rong Zijin glanced at Hong Bowen indifferently, and then put down the pen in his hand: "The group of bachelors don't even know what Roman numerals are. It's not bad to be able to solve three ways."

"But Xiao Xiao will continue to attend class tomorrow, when will we go to him again!" Hong Bowen slapped the table, "No way! I'm going to post these questions all over the palace. No one can figure it out!"

Rong Zijin laughed mockingly: "Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

"What do you mean?" Hong Bowen looked at Rong Zijin angrily, "But you said he might be a spy, so I just wanted to get him out of the teaching assistant as soon as possible, so as not to endanger our Imperial College!"

"Really?" Rong Zijin looked at Hong Bowen with a smile on his cheek.

Hong Bowen only came back to his senses at this time, and he dared not look directly at Rong Zijin with a guilty conscience: "... of course."

Rong Zijin shook his head, too lazy to argue with this duplicity person, pointing his finger at the table and said thoughtfully: "I never thought that even the academicians in the Imperial Academy couldn't solve these ten questions, no wonder He dared to say that at the time. It’s just that he is not even 20 years old, such a genius is too unbelievable, is it possible that someone else came up with the question?”

"That's right!" Hong Bowen clapped his hands together and jumped up excitedly, "Why didn't I think of that! Maybe he doesn't even know how to do it himself, why should he use it to test others? We'll question him tomorrow. , Let's see what else he can say!"

"I'm going to look for sacrificial wine tomorrow, remember to tell me when you come back." Rong Zijin picked himself out without a trace.

At this time, Hong Bowen was already immersed in Xiao Xiao's joy of being speechless when he was asked. He just shook his hand indifferently when he heard Rong Zijin's words, and then walked out with the book boy.The smile on Rong Zijin's face froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered, and then picked up the brush to copy the book again.As a descendant of the Rong family, as No.1 of the Imperial College, his sense of responsibility does not allow him to be idle and looking for things every day like Hong Bowen, but for a moment he suppressed his thoughts and read the book seriously Come.

On the other side, Xiao Xiao was checking the unfinished guitar in the yard of the pillar.Now the main body of the guitar has been finished, but the gut strings are still drying, and it will take three or four days for them to be played after being rubbed and put on the guitar.From this point of view, the pillar is indeed a talented carpenter, and the construction period of half a month is indeed the fastest.Xiao Xiao encouraged him again, and then went to the bookstore and asked about how to publish novels. However, if you don’t ask, you don’t know. When you ask, you are startled. It turns out that bookstores generally do not accept books published by individuals.If you really want to publish a book, you need at least 100 taels. After all, engraving, paper and labor costs must be included.

"It's too expensive." Xiao Xiao frowned. He wasn't sure if he could earn 100 taels, so he had to give it away first?

The clerk at the bookstore couldn't help but said with disgust: "It's still expensive? You go out and inquire about it. Our vast bookstore is the cheapest. How many people publish books come to our house? And think about it, sir. The book is ten taels, and if you sell ten copies, you will get back the original."

"What you said is also reasonable, but I'm afraid that no one will read it!" Xiao Xiao was a little shaken, but after all, he didn't know whether the novels written by the supervisors would suit the tastes of the people of this era, so he couldn't make a decision for a long time. , "In this way, when the novel is written, I will see their reaction before considering whether to publish the book."

"You haven't written it yet?" The clerk was dumbfounded, suspecting that this person was playing him for fun.

"No, I've decided on the outline of the topic..." The more Xiao Xiao said, the more he felt that the man was glaring at him, so his voice gradually weakened, and he smiled at him: "I must come when the time comes! I must come!"

Xiao Xiao saw the clerk looking like he was going to scold someone, so she hurriedly backed out. Seeing that it was getting late, she went back to her yard to rest, lamenting that this little holiday was really short.The next day, after getting up to wash up at Maoshi, Xiao Xiao gnawed on a steamed bun and got into the carriage as usual, and came to the Imperial College.

Zheng Bai went to the Shengjian Hall to change the test papers today, so Xiao Xiao was the only one in the doctor's hall, which was empty and less popular.Xiao Xiao was bored looking at the scenery outside the window, wondering if the kid named Hong Bowen would come to class today.When the bell for class rang, Xiao Xiao entered Guangye Hall, and was a little disappointed to find that although there were many people listening, there was no face that she expected.

With no disappointment on her face, Xiao Xiao greeted Hong Bowen before the afternoon class after finishing the morning class as usual.Xiao Xiao looked amused at the triumphant him, so she asked first, "Why, did you figure it out?"

"I have no solution at all," Hong Bowen sneered, "I'm not proficient in arithmetic, why should I spend effort on it?"

Then Xiao Xiao didn't understand why he had such a beating expression.So Xiao Xiao asked curiously: "Since you haven't untied it, what are you doing here?"

"It's because you asked these questions and it doesn't prove that you are qualified to be a teaching assistant. After all, who knows if you came up with these questions?" Hong Bowen folded his arms and said provocatively, "I can also ask questions that others can't answer. Can I be a teaching assistant? Asking other people's difficult problems doesn't mean anything at all, solving difficult problems is what matters!"

"Then you mean that I have to solve these ten difficult problems to prove that I am qualified?" Xiao Xiao looked at him speechlessly.

"Of course not!" Hong Bowen said categorically, "Solving problems posed by yourself is nothing special. Only being able to solve problems posed by others can prove your qualifications!"

"You are simply messing around!" Zhang Yi stood up with a face of resentment, and said in a rather bad tone.

As soon as Hong Bowen saw Zhang Yi, he laughed out loud: "Who am I? Isn't this the young master Zhang and the talented Zhang who have been studying mathematics for more than ten years? Why, the same sickness? I advise you not to force yourself, after all... ..."

"What do you want to do?" Xiao Xiao interrupted Hong Bowen impatiently.

"It's very simple." Hong Bowen looked at Xiao Xiao coldly and said, "I heard that you came to the Imperial College without even taking the exam? Now it's obviously not worthwhile to re-make the exam questions for the teacher-this is good Didn’t Mr. Yu leave three difficult problems behind, saying that as long as he solves them, he will go through fire and water? Since the teacher claims to know the truth of everything in the world, why not solve these three difficult problems for the students to see, how about it?”

Mr. Yu is the geek that Xiao Xiao wants to curry favor with the guitar, but Xiao Xiao never expected that this time he would have to find Mr. Yu.So he sighed: "That's it?"

Hong Bowen regained his complacent expression: "That's it."

"Then I will agree. I will solve these three problems within a month, no, within half a month." Xiao Xiao couldn't help stretching his expression when he saw the anxious expressions of the supervisors below, "I, Xiao Xiao, don't lie. I will not talk big, I hope you will stop bothering me after I solve these three questions."

The bet between Xiao Xiao and Hong Bowen soon set off a wave of discussion in the Imperial College, but the direction of the discussion changed a little bit, and it turned from one sided to Xiao Xiao's. Can still compete.Most of the students knew about the ten questions that Xiao Xiao posted on the wall, but they turned off their minds after they realized that even the academicians of the Imperial Academy could not solve them. Very capable.Whether it's for deliberately playing the opposite tune, or because I really feel that Xiao Xiao, a math genius, can solve Mr. Yu's three problems, the final result is that the number of people who support Xiao Xiao is increasing day by day, until the two factions in front of other doctors Dare to confront each other.

"In this case, it's better to set the date and invite Mr. Yu to our Guozijian." Jijiu pondered and said to the supervisors who came to report, he didn't expect that Xiao Xiao could cause such a big trouble turmoil.Originally, like other doctors, he just watched coldly and let the second-year supervisors find fault, but as more and more supervisors went to observe Xiao Xiao's class, they gradually couldn't sit still.Since Xiao Xiao and Hong Bowen made a bet, the second-year supervisors would rather spend their self-study time listening to that Xiao Xiao's class than to take their doctoral courses. Where does this make them lose face?Jijiu thought that it would be okay if Xiao Xiao solved it this time, but if he couldn't solve it, he would have a reason to expel the teaching assistant, and he would go to the emperor to read a book.

The supervisors took the order to resign, gloating in their hearts, knowing that Xiao Xiao had offended Jijiu this time.After the matter got serious, Xiao Xiao would be able to make a name for the Imperial College if he solved it, and he would not suffer any harm if he couldn’t solve it; but Xiao Xiao, if he couldn’t solve it, he would die——wouldn’t it be embarrassing in front of the doctors and supervisors of the whole country? Worse than death?The supervisors didn't believe that Xiao Xiao could really solve it. After all, they had seen the doctors who were troubled by Mr. Yu's three problems.

None of the supervisors was on Xiao Xiao's side.On the one hand, they think that there is no such thing as an all-rounder capable of poetry, music and books in the world—not to mention that Xiao Xiao is good at arithmetic; the other is that they look down on Xiao Xiao.The Guozijian did stipulate that students should not contradict their teachers, but in this world, power and money override all regulations, so not only will they not reprimand those supervisors who come from big families, but they will even smile.But what about Xiao Xiao?First, he set up a ten-question problem to prove that he was better than the others in the Guozijian, and then he clashed with the Hong family boy, making himself so different.The supervisors thought that Xiao Xiao had stumbled this time, one by one walked faster than the other, and rushed to the doctor's hall of mathematics to tell him the "good news".
