little fool's child bride

"Let me tell you, there are not many people who have real talents in the Imperial College, and they all paid for it!" The wretched scholar with sly eyebrows and mouse eyes said to the others surrounding him mysteriously, "My second uncle's old mother's My daughter's third son is a Ph.D. in the Imperial Academy, and he said that the Imperial Academy is full of ignorant and incompetent people who study crooked ways all day long!"

Everyone exclaimed, and there was an uproar immediately, and those who had such good deeds also talked about some rumors they had heard.

"I've heard of it too!" A stout man in bunts said excitedly, "I went to the bookstore the other day, and I saw several Imperial College supervisors come out of the bookstore, holding several silver ingots in their pockets. They must have taken all the knowledge of the Imperial College to the bookstore and sold it!"

Everyone didn't ask what this man who was obviously dressed as a nurse was doing in the bookstore, they just gasped excitedly, expecting more black material from the Imperial College.At this time, a student from the Imperial College just came in and happened to hear this sentence, and pointed at the man angrily and scolded: "It's really a villain's heart to judge a gentleman's belly! We write books innocently to make money, why do you call him a book thief?" !"

"Writing a book? It's just you, who will you write the book for! Can you get dozens of taels of silver for writing a book?" The strong man sneered, and then continued to tell others about the misbehavior of the supervising students that came out from the bookstore.It is probably because people in this world like to hear bad people much more than they like to see good people, so the people around the big man just looked indifferently at the prison student who defended him, then turned their heads and continued to listen to the story of the prison student doing evil. .

The two supervisors, who wanted to fight, turned and left with flushed faces, filled with indignation towards everyone in the Drunken Immortal Tower.It's just that they hadn't walked ten meters away, but at this moment, a hand stopped in front of the two of them, asking them to go to the theater together.The Zuixian building was still lively, more than 20 people were very happy listening to the big man's nonsense, and some people wanted to take over for the poor man to continue speaking.

"What else, do you know who the doctors in the Imperial College are?" A scholar was not too cold, and said softly, shaking a paper fan in this cold spring, "They are all from second-rate families who can't get into official positions." One can imagine what kind of people they can teach!"

Everyone gave a "wow", and then nodded, as if they agreed very much, which made the scholar who was shaking the paper fan even more proud.He continued to slander the Imperial College maliciously: "And that Xiao Xiao, who solved Yu Taiqing's problems in a few words, don't you think it's fake? I think this is a scene he played with Yu Taiqing for the sake of fame!"

This time, everyone stopped talking, and their expressions were different, which surprised the scholar, wondering if he had overdone it.However, the truth is that a familiar figure appeared at the door of Zuixian Tower, saluted everyone with a smile and said:

"No matter how poor our country's Zijian supervisors are, they are also talents who have been selected layer by layer through the provincial examinations. Your Excellency's high-spirited appearance, I don't know which year it was the number one scholar, the second place, or the third flower?"

"I, I'm too lazy to take this kind of exam!" The scholar finally stopped shaking the paper fan, but stretched his neck and said to Xiao Xiao viciously: "This is just for you to cover up that only the children of high officials and nobles can enter the Imperial Academy." It’s the truth, but it’s just a fake move! Looking at the No. [-] picks in these years, how many people on the list are from poor families? If you don’t have shady scenes, I wouldn’t believe it if you were killed!”

As soon as the scholar's words came out, all the people around him looked at Xiao Xiao with the same hatred, as if he was the one who manipulated the exam behind the scenes.But how can Xiao Xiao, who has trained her eloquence for a long time, be afraid?Dang even narrowed his eyes and asked everyone if they thought the same way.

"You seem to have mistaken cause and effect." Xiao Xiao looked at these nodding people with some disappointment, "Let me ask you, can you save your daily expenses? How much does it cost a month?"

Although the scholar didn't know why, he still did the math, and then replied vigilantly: "My parents gave me the money, 100 taels a month. Why do you ask this?"

Seeing his hostile eyes, Xiao Xiao almost laughed out loud—couldn't he see that the people around him had already turned their backs and looked at him with jealousy and unkindness?You must know that even in the royal city at the foot of the emperor, ordinary people spend more than 20 taels a year, and this is still a family; and this scholar spends 100 taels a month...

"A book is more than a dozen taels, pen, ink, paper and inkstone are dozens of taels, and every time you communicate with people, it's a few taels. These 100 taels are not much." Xiao Xiao said calmly.

Although the scholar didn't speak, the vigilance on his face relaxed a little.

"But do you know how much money an ordinary person earns in a year?" Xiao Xiao raised her eyebrows, "No more than ten taels."

The people around the scholar suddenly looked at Xiao Xiao with vacillating eyes, because those of them who always like to brag about how much money they make didn't expect Xiao Xiao to puncture the illusion all of a sudden, making the situation embarrassing.

But the scholar just frowned, and then snorted coldly: "So what? What does it have to do with what you said?"

Xiao Xiao sighed: "It's also a good thing you didn't become an official, otherwise I'm afraid you'd be the one who doesn't care about the lives of the common people!"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Xiao continued without waiting for this person's rebuttal: "They earn ten taels a year, and after taking away the family's food and clothing, there are seven or eight taels left. Even if they don't keep any of this money, they will all go to the children in the family to test their grades. Can you afford a book? You said that the people on the list are all from wealthy families, and the imperial court must have secretly manipulated the test results; but the fact is that reading books is a very expensive thing, how can ordinary people afford it? Reading, reading good books, and being able to read are the truths in learning, but for ordinary families with students, unless the child in the family is a genius, who can cruelly use all their savings to support their children to study more?"

"So it's not because the imperial court secretly manipulated the test results, but because these poor children couldn't afford to study at all, so few took the test," Xiao Xiao concluded, "Not everyone can have 100 taels of silver a month like you .”

Only then did the scholar understand what Xiao Xiao wanted to express, but he had lost his chance long ago and was speechless, just standing still and changing his expression.In the end, he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "You haven't even taken the provincial examination, what qualifications do you have to teach me here? Besides, if you are really talented, why would you stay in Mathematics - Mathematics!"

The already shaken onlookers also looked at Xiao Xiao inquisitively after hearing this. After all, who didn't know that this person was directly recommended by the prince to study mathematics?Suanxue is a gathering place for useless people in the Guozijian. If Mr. Xiao is really an amazingly talented person, why should he go to Taixue? Why is it Suanxue?There have been rumors about the affair between Mr. Xiao and the prince, maybe...

Xiao Xiao looked at everyone's suspicious eyes, glanced at this group of grasshoppers with disdain, and then said to the scholar:

"Are you questioning my level of knowledge?"

"I don't dare to question you, the big red man in front of the prince!" The scholar seemed to have found a new direction of attack, so his face became normal, and he said with some pride, "It's just that everyone knows what kind of supervising students are in mathematics. Didn’t the schools dispose of them, so they threw them into this special place for waste storage? Since Mr. Xiao has a great talent, why did he go to mathematics? Could it be, could it be that Mr. Xiao also..."

Xiao Xiaopi continued with a non-smiling smile: "Could it be something? Could it be that I'm also a waste?"

"I didn't say that!" The scholar hurriedly waved his hands, pretending to be innocent, causing the surrounding crowd to burst into laughter.

Xiao Xiao looked at the scholar coldly, but he didn't expect that the folks had the same understanding of arithmetic, and they all thought this was a garbage dump, a place specially for throwing garbage.The proud sons of the Taixue couldn't touch porcelain, so they wanted to discredit the Imperial College and they made up the superintendents of mathematics to their heart's content. Looking at those who started winking and whispering, Xiao Xiao suppressed his anger and growled: "That's enough!" Already!"

Seeing that it attracted everyone's attention, Xiao Xiao said seriously, "Since you look down on mathematics so much, how about I give you a chance?"

Xiao Xiao no longer looked at the crowded crowd at the moment—all of them were attracted by the "resurrected" self. He asked the two prison students following behind him to stick a large piece of paper full of words on it. On the door of Zuixian Tower, he said to everyone:

"I once posed ten problems to the students of the Guozijian, and those are still posted in Guangyetang until now. There are very few people in the Guozijian who can solve three problems, and no one who can solve more than five problems has not appeared so far. Now I am posting these questions here, if there is anyone who can solve more than seven ways, I, Xiao Xiao, will be a slave for the rest of my life, and I will do whatever I want."

The world-famous Mr. Xiao made himself a slave?Everyone's enthusiasm was awakened at once. Originally, they wanted to argue a few words with Mr. Xiao, but they were gearing up. They decided to humiliate Xiao Xiao after solving all the problems.Seeing everyone obsessed with solving problems, Xiao Xiao left indifferently. He knew that the boring people of Wangcheng would spread the news to everyone overnight, so he didn't have to worry about not being able to make a name for himself quickly.

Sure enough, when Xiao Xiao went to Zuixian Tower the next day, she was surrounded by a group of scholars, saying that she had solved the answer by herself, and asked Xiao Xiao to have a look.But this is not the purpose of Xiao Xiao's trip. He saw that there were almost no duplicate answers, picked out a few of them and pointed out the mistakes, and then stood in the arena set up for the debate between supervisors and idle scholars a few days ago.

The arena had been vacant for several days. After all, the supervising students in Taixue would not participate in such a price-depreciating action, and there were not many scholars who were able to compete, such as those scholars who chatted every day, so many people dispersed later. , there are only some people left who persist in spreading the black material of the Imperial College.Xiao Xiao stood on the empty arena at this time, slightly lowered her head and looked at the people looking up at him and said:

"Aren't you always curious about the level of doctors in the Imperial College? Don't you always think that the students in the Imperial College are ignorant and can only talk about big and empty truths? From today, I will give lectures in the Zuixian Building for a month. Anyone can come and listen, and no one will be rejected.”
