Chapter 215: The Brothers Wept
"What did you say?!" the eldest prince raised his voice.
Lu Chaochao scratched his ears and said, "If your brain doesn't work well, does your ears also not work well?"
"I just learned it from you."
"Three Character Classic, the little brother just taught me."
"The Analects, you taught me."
"I'll remember it after you finish reading it."
Lu Chaochao was speechless: "Isn't this something that you can learn if you have ears and brains?"
The little guy's blank and matter-of-fact expression makes people...
Stunned.
"You, did you learn it on the spot?!" The voice was sharp, as if someone was choking.
"Yes, learn and recite at the same time, isn't that what you do?" she asked in surprise.
"Why not? Is it because you don't like it?"
She looked up curiously and asked everyone.
The eldest prince covered his heart and took a step back.
Why, why did he give him a critical hit! !
"Is it because we don't like it and don't want it?" The scholar next to him was almost crying. That's what we've been longing for!
Chao Chao scratched the hair on his head, feeling very confused.
"She...she has a photographic memory?" The eldest prince asked in a doubtful tone, his face full of shock. Is the legendary photographic memory actually true? ?
Prime Minister Yuan nodded slowly.
"Chao Chao was born with a photographic memory. If you don't believe me, you can try reading some miscellaneous books."
Everyone looked at her in astonishment.
The two-year-old little potato turned out to be a genius! !
Compared with Lu Yanshu, it is even better!
Master Zhu ran faster and more actively than anyone else. He found a Buddhist scripture from the library.
"Chao Chao, Master Zhu is reading this Diamond Sutra. Would you like to take notes?" Master Zhu was very interested.
Lu Chaozhao nodded: "Although it's a bit boring, but..."
"Forget it. Just leave it to you." He said in a doting tone.
Because she found that her fellow practitioners had tears in their eyes and were about to cry.
"Thus I have heard, at one time, the Buddha was in the Jetavana Grove in the country of Sravasti..." Master Zhu intended to test her, and his tone was very fast. Everyone wanted to compete with him, and they all concentrated and memorized it.
But as the teacher spoke faster and faster, everyone became more and more reluctant to follow.
After Master Zhu finished reading, the scholars were still a little confused.
"I only remember about ten sentences..." Just over a hundred words.
"I can barely remember three or four hundred words..."
"I'm ashamed to say that I only have nine sentences..."
"Brother Lu, how much do you remember?" someone asked Lu Yanshu. Lu Yanshu was a scholar at the age of eight and was a recognized genius.
"One third." Lu Yanshu said in a light voice.
Lu Chaochao's voice was heard again in the field.
There was a pause, but no stumble, and she demonstrated her extraordinary talent in front of everyone.
"The original text of the Diamond Sutra has 5,000 words, and she only needs one read. She actually only needs one read!!" A scholar burst into tears on the spot, and he tore the book in his arms into pieces.
"Five thousand words, just one time!"
"We have studied hard for ten years, but we are not as good as a two-year-old. Her talent is enough to defeat everyone here."
"What's the point of working so hard?! What's the point?" The scholar cried and laughed at the same time, and was so angry that he broke down on the spot.
"All of us, how many years have we spent studying the Four Books and Five Classics? And we still can't recite them completely. But what about her? She only needs to listen to it once and it can be engraved in her heart. God is unfair, God is unfair." His mentality collapsed.
The scholar left the Imperial College crying.
"He has average talent and a mediocre family background, and he worked hard to climb into the A class. But because of his qualifications, it has been extremely difficult for him to follow."
"In the exam last month, I dropped from Class A to Class B, and my mentality was already on the verge of collapse." Lu Yanshu explained to Chao Chao.
Lu Chaochao leaned on her brother's shoulder and said, "Brother, I think I made my fellow brothers cry..."
Sure enough, many of the brothers present had red eyes.
"I started to study at the age of three. I started to use pens when I couldn't even hold chopsticks steadily. I thought I could narrow the gap in talent through diligence. In the end, I was overthinking."
Everyone was distraught.
Lu Chaochao alone defeated the entire audience.
Prime Minister Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "I accepted Chao Chao as my last disciple without telling you. It was not to protect her, but to protect your pitiful self-esteem."
The scholars lowered their heads, looking listless, as if all their pride had been crushed by Lu Chaochao.
"There will always be people better than you. Don't underestimate your opponent! Even if he looks kind and harmless, he may crush you to pieces." Prime Minister Yuan said in a low voice.
"Losing to Chao Chao is just a loss of face."
“But if you leave the Imperial College and lose to your opponent, that would be a calamity.” Prime Minister Yuan said in a serious tone.
Their contempt for Chao Chao doomed them to failure.
Lu Yanshu didn't care about his classmates' feelings and walked out of the Imperial College with Chaochao in his arms.
Lu Yuanxiao followed happily behind him.
"Oh, finally I'm not the only one who's been hit hard."
"Brother, if I remember all the articles, can I not go to school?" Lu Chaochao was calculating in his mind.
"Chao Chao, memorizing the article is just the basics. You also need to understand its meaning..."
"I understand, I understand, I understand everything. If you don't believe me, test me!" Lu Chaochao snorted.
"What does it mean that the roads are connected and the chickens and dogs can hear each other?"
Lu Chaochao thought for a moment and said, "It's from Peach Blossom Spring."
"What I mean is that chickens and dogs are sniffing each other, right?" Lu Chaochao looked excited.
Lu Yanshu paused.
"Forget it, you should study hard. Don't waste your talent." After all, he was young and only understood the literal meaning.
Lu Chaochao felt very sorry.
The carriage had not yet entered the house when it was suddenly stopped by a servant.
"Hurry, hurry, go to the Xu family first. The old lady of the Xu family is suddenly seriously ill and is dying."
"Hurry, come with me back to the Xu family. Grandma is seriously ill and can't get out of bed!" Xu felt weak all over, and Dengzhi helped her out of the door.
Xu's eyes were red, her voice was trembling, and she tied her cloak as she walked.
"The imperial physician has already rushed over, but I don't know what's going on."
"How could this happen? It was fine before we left!" Lu Yuanxiao shouted.
[In the original book, when Lu Jingyao was celebrating her full moon, the Xu family was framed and imprisoned. In the end, my uncle was taken the blame and executed, and my grandmother couldn't bear the shock and died of illness in prison. 】
[I often use elixirs and longevity charms to take care of my grandmother's health. My grandmother's life span is almost over, so extending it for another two years won't be a problem. 】
[Why did you suddenly become seriously ill?] 】
Mrs. Xu's eyes were red as she gnashed her teeth, "Lu Yuanze! I don't know what's wrong with him. He suddenly asked to see the old lady."
"My mother was so angry that she fainted."
"Let's go see grandma first." Everyone climbed onto the carriage and headed towards Xu's house.
Before Lu Chaochao even reached the door of Xu's house, her heart skipped a beat.
[Oh, there is a deadly aura lingering in front of the door. Grandmother is afraid that something is wrong...] Hearing Lu Chaochao's inner voice, everyone felt heavy in their hearts.
The carriage had not yet stopped.
Lu Yanshu, who was always calm, rushed out of the carriage.
He swung his fist and punched Lu Yuanze who was kneeling in front of the door.
"What are you doing here? Hasn't your mother been hurt enough?"
"Hasn't it been enough that you've hurt my grandmother?"
Bang!
He punched Lu Yuanze directly on the nose.
The bright red blood from the nose dripped onto the snow...
