A few days before the Tongsheng examination is about to begin.
Suddenly, a rumor spread in a small circle in Nanyang County.
I heard that the little prodigy is going to take the imperial examination.
The messenger spoke with certainty, claiming that the little grandson of his third uncle's brother-in-law's great-uncle's family and the child prodigy had jointly guaranteed each other.
But Cui Xian had only been learning for a year.
Are you preparing for the imperial examination now?
...isn't that a bit too hasty?
A lady in the rear house wanted to find out the news, so she organized a banquet and invited the two ladies of the Cui family to come and ask them secretly.
In response, Chen immediately refuted the rumor online: "It's fake."
Lin also swore solemnly: "Don't believe it."
The child is still young and is studying hard.
Don’t do it!
Zhongjing Lane, in Mr. Donglai’s courtyard.
The old man stared at his young apprentice in a daze and asked dully, "What did you just say?"
Cui Xian blinked and repeated, "Teacher, I have finished reading all these books. Do you have any other books?"
No... Have you finished reading several rooms full of books?
Mr. Dong Lai was stunned for a moment and did not dare to say that he expected his apprentice to study for one year.
As a result, the apprentice finished his studies in less than half a year!
You caught the teacher off guard by doing this.
He coughed lightly and began to find faults deliberately: "You read so fast, the content must not be consolidated very well, right? I tell you, when it comes to learning, you must not swallow it whole. For example..."
Speaking of.
Mr. Donglai picked up a book, opened it, and read: "The guest said to Gu Zi: What you wrote..."
"This book is "A Summary of Geography and History"."
Cui Xian blurted out without thinking: "The guest said to Gu Zi: The book "Fang Yu Ji Yao" you wrote is a collection of the words of hundreds of generations and a study of the theories of various schools. You have worked hard on it for many years..."
He recited very smoothly, with almost no pauses.
Mr. Dong Lai was very surprised. He picked up another book and opened it, as if he didn't believe it: "The literature that cannot be separated from heaven and earth..."
“This book is the Daily Record.”
Cui Xian said quickly again: "The things that cannot be cut off from the world are to clarify the truth, record political affairs, investigate the people's grievances, and enjoy talking about people's goodness. Such things are beneficial to the world and to the future..."
Mr. Donglai was stunned.
In fact, it is very common in this era to read widely and even be able to recite many books.
Including Mr. Dong Lai himself, he is also a leader in being knowledgeable and having a good memory.
The problem is, he has been studying it for a lifetime!
How long has Cui Xian studied?
Looking at his little apprentice blankly, Mr. Dong Lai suddenly asked uncertainly: "Master, I remember that the homework I assigned to you was to finish reading these books, right?"
Cui Xian nodded and said seriously: "Yes, I have finished reading it, so I can recite it."
Mr. Dong Lai:?
No? Is that right?!
I have been in the literary world for many years and have seen countless geniuses, but I have never seen a genius as great as you.
What kind of horrible academic monster are you!
Mr. Dong Lai was shocked in his heart, but his face was unusually calm: "You can recite it, right? That's good. I will give you a half-month vacation. You can take a rest, go out and have fun, and show your face in the lively crowd."
"In half a month, I will officially start teaching you."
It is definitely not enough to just read books mechanically.
After finishing the book, I can recite it.
The next step is to analyze the profound meaning, repeatedly dialectically analyze it, and then completely transform it into your own knowledge.
Holiday? Show your face?
Cui Xian heard this and said helplessly: "Teacher, didn't you say that you should let your disciples calm down and study, and keep a low profile outside?"
Oh, yes, yes.
You keep a low profile outside, so you want to be high-profile in this small courtyard and show off your skills as your teacher, right?
Is there a possibility.
A genius like you, how can you be considered low-key?
Mr. Dong Lai forced a smile, feeling sweet and melancholy: "You...try to be low-key. But if your strength does not allow it, then there is nothing you can do."
"I suddenly feel that asking you to keep a low profile is quite difficult for you."
Cui Xian: “…”
then.
Without waiting for Cui Xian to reply, Mr. Donglai drove his apprentice out of the courtyard.
On that day, Mr. Dong Lai left home with his servant Lao Luo and hurriedly contacted his circle of friends: Urgent, urgent, who has unwanted precious and rare books? Please bring them to my apprentice to take a look!
The other side.
Cui Xian, who was 'driven out', had no choice but to return home, but outside his house, he ran into the drunk... Pei Jian?
Cui Xian almost thought he had seen it wrong, and asked in surprise: "Brother, have you been drinking?"
See Choi Heon.
Pei Jian had a silly smile on his flushed face: "Brother Xian, I have something to tell you."
Cui Xian walked up to him and supported him, saying helplessly, "What's the matter?"
Pei Jian said, "Brother has signed you up for the Tongsheng exam. You can go take the exam the day after tomorrow morning."
Cui Xian stared at him and smiled when he heard that.
Pei Jian didn't say anything, but just looked at him and smiled.
Cui Xian slowly put away his smile:?
Seeing Cui Xian like this, Pei Jian shrank his neck, squatted down, curled up at the foot of the wall and shivered.
Cui Xian took a deep breath and said, "Pei Jian, look me in the eyes."
Pei Jian straightened his neck and raised his head, showing him a flattering smile: "It's not a big deal, right? You, just think of it as taking the imperial examination for your elder brother."
...How could someone cause such a big mess?
Cui Xian rubbed his forehead and said, "If I want to take the imperial examination, I will register myself. Why do you have to register for me? Also, the examination process is complicated. How did you do it?"
