Chapter 214 Photographic Memory
Lu Chaochao stood blankly opposite his fellow brothers.
There were a lot of senior brothers, but Lu Chaochao was the only one.
Anyone who sees this contrast will cry.
"It's not good for a group of senior brothers to compete with a two-year-old junior sister, right?"
"How about we just pick one?" Everyone murmured in their hearts, if Princess Zhaoyang loses, she won't cry, right?
If the emperor gets angry, they will all be in trouble.
The emperor took great pains to let the princess go to school.
Lu Chaochao sat on the stool obediently: "You guys come together. I want to go home to drink milk..."
Everyone was even more upset because he was still a baby drinking milk.
Prime Minister Yuan glanced at Lu Chaochao.
Originally, he just wanted to repay Lu Chaochao for saving his grandson.
But when he truly saw Lu Chaochao's talent, he became interested in her.
This is the smartest one among all his disciples.
"What are we going to compare? I'm afraid she hasn't even learned the Three Character Classic." The students didn't know what to do.
Lu Chaochao slowly raised her hand: "I have learned it!"
The little doll sat on the stool, shaking his head: "When people are born, their nature is good..."
"If jade is not polished, it cannot become a useful object..."
"The three lights are the sun, the moon and the stars..." the little guy muttered and shook his head.
"Teacher, this is all I'll teach you today. I don't know what's next..." Lu Chaochao waved her hands, and the little tuft of hair on her head swayed back and forth.
Master Zhu looked at her in shock.
"I, I didn't teach them! I haven't taught them yet. I just read it to them so that they can get familiar with it. I only read it once!" Master Zhu exclaimed in surprise.
The students looked at each other.
"Brother Lu, have you taught her to recite the Three Character Classic at home?" a classmate joked.
Lu Yanshu smiled but said nothing.
"Let's take the test on the Four Books and Five Classics. Chaochao is two years old and has not learned the definitions yet. How about you memorize them first and then Chaochao?" Lu Yanshu looked at his classmates.
They pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Do as Brother Lu said."
The young men who had already taken part in the imperial examination did not participate.
Winning or losing, it is not glorious for them.
The correct thing to do is to focus on preparing for the imperial examination.
In the first round, a student from Class A was sent out. He had already obtained the title of scholar, a thirteen-year-old scholar.
If it weren't for Lu Yanshu, he would also be a little genius famous in the capital.
"Listen carefully. If you know the Three Character Classic, I will recite it to you. I learned the Three Character Classic when I was four years old, and it only took me one day to recite it!"
The crowd was shocked.
"It took me three days. It was really stupid."
“It took me two days.”
Someone asked Lu Yanshu: "Brother Lu, how long did it take you?"
Lu Yanshu smiled and said, "Three times."
Everyone felt sour. The young boy pursed his lips as his brother recited it six times.
The young scholar put his hands behind his back and recited the entire text without any stumbling in half an hour.
Lu Chaochao imitated his gaze, emphasizing every word, even the order in which he paused was exactly the same.
Recite the entire text without any hesitation.
Everyone was surprised: "Brother Lu, your family started learning so early? A two-year-old child has learned the Three Character Classic and can recite the entire text!" Two years old! !
"No wonder they dared to send it to the academy."
Only the young scholar looked at Lu Chaochao with suspicion. Was it his illusion?
His throat was a little itchy at the time, and he mispronounced a word while he was practicing with his back to the beam and piercing his thighs with a needle, but no one heard it clearly.
But Lu Chaochao also pronounced it wrong! !
Did she really learn it in advance?
The young scholar frowned, impossible? Ha, you can’t have learned it on the spot, right? !
Ha, impossible.
The young scholar stood in the corner without saying a word, observing Lu Chaochao with his lips tightly pursed.
Relying on Lu Chaochao's identity, Lu Yuanxiao also entered the Imperial College.
Li Siqi was furious: "So many senior brothers are bullying Chao Chao alone. Aren't you afraid that your sister will cry? You are still laughing!"
Lu Yuanxiao touched his face and said, "Did I smile? Hehe, it's good. Finally, I'm not the only one who is hurt!"
Lu Yuanxiao smiled extremely happily, hiding his achievements and fame.
"Who's next?" Lu Chaochao asked obediently.
"Oh, the little girl is still urging us." Everyone said with a smile, not taking her seriously at all.
"Sister Zhaoyang is so confident, let me, your elder brother, dampen your arrogance." The eldest prince raised his brows with a hint of pride.
"Did Lu Yanshu teach you the Analects?"
Lu Chaochao shook her head: "My eldest brother never taught me to read. My dear brother." He never taught me the Three Character Classic either.
[Oh my, this is the baby adopted by Concubine Hui...]
Lu Yanshu's eyelids twitched.
The eldest prince was extremely knowledgeable in the Imperial Academy. When there was no crown prince, he was the most popular candidate and was almost made the heir to the throne.
However, Concubine Hui did not seem to want him to cling to power.
"When I was free, I once memorized the entire Analects of Confucius, which consists of twenty chapters and 16,000 words."
"Sister Zhaoyang, listen carefully."
“The Master said, ‘Is it not a pleasure to learn with a view to constantly practising what one has learned? Isn’t it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar? If one does not get angry when people do not know him, is that not the behavior of a gentleman? "The eldest prince put one hand behind his back and pondered.
The eldest prince tried several times to become the Prime Minister's disciple, but was rejected every time.
The entire text of the Analects is difficult and tongue-twisting for children, and they may not be able to understand it at all.
At this moment, Lu Chaozhao was drowsy.
The little head was heaving and he couldn't even lift it up.
The eldest prince raised his lips slightly, with a hint of satisfaction on his brows.
Half an hour later.
"Princess Zhaoyang, it's your turn." The eldest prince looked at Prime Minister Yuan. The Prime Minister had an indifferent expression, as if he had great confidence in Lu Chaochao.
Lu Chaochao rubbed his eyes sleepily: "Has the eldest prince finished reciting?"
The eldest prince glanced at her with disdain.
"I'll recite it of course. Princess Zhaoyang lost, so don't cry..."
Lu Chaochao looked at him in surprise: "Teach? My elder brother never taught me."
"He said it was frustrating to teach me."
"Besides, why are you crying? Do you need to learn this?" Lu Chaochao was very surprised, and the shock on her face did not seem fake.
"Twenty articles, only sixteen thousand words."
She stood up and yawned.
“The Master said, ‘Is it not a pleasure to learn with a view to constantly practising what one has learned? "The little girl's voice was childish, but as she recited word by word, the smiles on everyone's faces slowly froze.
A young voice sounded, and everyone's expressions became solemn.
Silence, an eerie silence filled the entire place.
Everyone stared blankly at the two-year-old child who recited the entire text word for word.
When her voice stopped, everyone was left in deep silence.
The eldest prince even pointed at her, his fingertips trembling.
"you!"
"you……"
Two years old, she is only two years old! !
Everyone looked at her in horror, and some even shouted in shock: "I have studied for ten years and I still haven't memorized the entire text!!"
"Neither have I."
"I...I haven't either." His eyes were dazed, as if he had suffered a huge blow.
"I, Lu, cannot teach Chaochao. What I know is not enough for her to learn." Lu Yanshu said sincerely.
The outside world calls him a genius.
But in front of Chao Chao, he is nothing but a dwarf.
If others are not strong enough in character, her talent is enough to destroy everyone's beliefs.
All the persistence and hard work are meaningless in front of her.
Her photographic memory is only part of it.
She was able to draw inferences from one instance and apply it to other similar situations. The Creator gave her all the best in the world.
The eldest prince pursed his lips, his eyes sharp and with a hint of panic.
His mind moved slightly, and he suddenly asked: "Sister Zhaoyang, have you studied the Analects?"
Lu Chaozhao nodded.
“Yes.”
"I just learned it from you."
