Many scholars were made enthusiastic by this poem, and looked up at the short-clothed young man on the stage, at this moment, the young man was no longer vulgar and obedient in their minds, as if a knight on a white horse, was so dazzling!

"I still don't believe that such an impassioned poem could come out of the mouth of such a country boy." Cui Zhouping shook his head, his face full of incredulity.

Xu Shu glanced at him lightly: "In the mountains and wilderness, there are quite a lot of hermits, don't you hear about the lost son feather of the person?" ”

"Oh my God, Lihua, this is the boy who killed the thief with an arrow in my uncle's mouth, why is his literary talent so high?" Deng Yan patted her trembling chest and said incredulously.

Teresa Teng was also dazzled and surprised. Is this still the apprentice Zhang Miao in my impression?

If it is said, saving people in the river initially changed Deng Lihua's view, and now Zhang Miao's poem has completely turned Deng Lihua's impression of Zhang Miao upside down.

When everyone in the audience was shocked, on the stage, Wang Cang was the first to come back to his senses, stood up and walked in front of Zhang Miao, and threw his hand to the ground.

"Can, from Guanzhong, wandered to Xiangyang, every time I think of the turmoil in the Central Plains, I am heartbroken, so I have this lamentation. Zhang Jun's chivalrous journey was like a blow to the head, waking me up from my sorrow. Let me realize that it is useless to fall into grief every day, and it is not beneficial for the country to be in the Book of Songs, it is better to learn from the chivalrous warriors of Zhao Di, eradicate injustice with a horse and a sword, and do your part for the people of the world! ”

Wang Cang, the seventh son of Jian'an, who is famous all over the world, was impressed by himself, which made Zhang Miao feel faintly complacent in his heart, and hurriedly returned the salute.

"Wang Jun tortured me, I am just a country man, in order to find a way to live for the villagers who were sacked by thieves, I came to Xiangyang. Thinking of the battle with the thieves on the way, I sighed at the turmoil in the world, and felt that I did this chivalrous journey, which is really humiliating and not elegant! ”

"Envoy, what do you think of this chivalrous journey?" When Wang Cang and Zhang Miao were talking, Kuai Yue asked softly sideways.

Liu Biao bowed slightly, and his eyes showed appreciation: "But in terms of this poem, this son's talent is not under Wang Zhongxuan." I didn't expect that under the rule of Lone, there would be such a teenager in the land of Huyang! ”

Liu Biao is not only a pastor of Jingzhou, but also has made great achievements in literature, and his knowledge is not under the great Confucian Song Zhong, so his vision is naturally extremely clever.

Kuai Yue smiled and nodded, and said in a loud voice: "Wu Na boy, come and talk back in front of the envoy!" ”

"The king calls you." Wang Cang hurriedly ended the conversation with Zhang Miao and reminded in a low voice.

Zhang Miao naturally heard Kuai Yue's words, turned around unhurriedly, and bowed to Liu Biao, who was sitting high, "Huyang Zhang Miao pays a visit to the envoy." ”

Looking at the young man standing in the middle of the stage, Liu Biao nodded slightly, and asked in a harmonious voice: "Are you from Huyang County?" ”

Zhang Miao replied respectfully: "Exactly, in Sanshui Village, Xiahuyang, my family was left behind the marquis, and lived in Nanyang during the Guangwu period, until now. ”

"It's actually the queen of the Hou!" Liu Biao sighed.

The three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, Zhang Liang, who stayed behind, are well-known in the Han country. It's just that among the descendants of the Liuhou, everyone knows only Zhang Lu, the five buckets of rice in Hanzhong, but I didn't expect that in Huyang, there are also descendants of the Liuhou.

"It's no wonder that after staying in the marquis, there is no wonder there is such a talent." Everyone present nodded slightly, that's right, after staying in the Hou, the family has a long history, and it is understandable to have such a young talent.

"Since you stay in the marquis, you must learn extraordinary, I don't know what kind of classics you treat?" Liu Biao continued to ask.

Zhang Miao hesitated when she heard this, not knowing how to answer. Liu Biao asked him what classics he had read, that is, Confucian classics such as "I Ching", "University", and "Shangshu". Zhang Miao had heard of these classics and knew some of them, but the problem was that he hadn't studied them carefully at all! He studied history, not ancient literature, right?

However, Liu Biao's words could not but be answered. After all, how can a person who has not read any classics explain that he can casually make such a poem as chivalrous?

"Hui Envoy Jun, in the Xia family has been in decline for many years, most of the classics left by the ancestors have been lost, and what he is proficient in is arithmetic!" After thinking urgently, Zhang Miao replied.

Who would know that a liberal arts student studying history in college participated in a national mathematics competition in middle school and won the third prize? When he was idle, Zhang Miao had read a lot of ancient arithmetic books, such as "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", "Zhou Ji Arithmetic", and "Five Classics of Arithmetic".

The six arts of a gentleman, etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics. Counting is arithmetic, Zhang Miao is not afraid of anyone taking the school exam! He has won the third prize in the Olympiad and studied college mathematics, and he thinks that when it comes to mathematics, no one is better than him in this era!

"It's arithmetic!" Liu Biao was a little surprised, and the others present were also surprised.

Zhang Miao's chivalrous writing is so good, in everyone's opinion, he must be proficient in poetry and books, but he didn't expect to learn arithmetic!

"Don't despise arithmetic, which seems to me to be the most useful knowledge in the world."

Knowing what Liu Biao and the scholars present were thinking, Zhang Miao continued.

"Oh, you might as well tell me how arithmetic is the most useful science in the world?" Liu Biao said with some amusement.

The six arts of a gentleman cannot be biased, who has not read an arithmetic book like "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" in this era? Even the most ordinary clerk in the state pastoral palace knows some arithmetic, otherwise he would not be able to calculate the tax expenditure!

Looking at Liu Biao and the disapproving appearance of everyone present, Zhang Miao smiled slightly.

"The way of arithmetic can measure acres of land and calculate population taxes, but this is just an ordinary small calculation. In fact, the way of arithmetic is broad and profound, and it can be regarded as invisible dust with the naked eye, and it can be calculated as the changes in heaven and earth, the sun, moon and stars. There is nothing in the world that cannot be calculated by arithmetic! ”

"That's a bit too much," Kuai Yue interjected with a smile, "In that case, let me ask you, how high is the sky, how thick is the earth, and how far away is the sun and the moon?" Can these also be counted? ”

"Hahaha", all the scholars on and off the stage laughed, and they all heard the ridicule in Kuai Yue's words, saying that Zhang Miao was a little unbelievable.

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy who vainly says that everything can be calculated with arithmetic, isn't this just that he doesn't know the height of the sky?

"Oops. Does this kid like to brag? Deng Yan couldn't help but ask Deng Lihua.

Deng Lihua didn't answer, but looked at Zhang Miao without blinking, she wanted to know how Zhang Miao would answer.

On the stage, Zhang Miao was not nervous because of everyone's laughter, but said calmly: "Of course it can be counted!" ”

"Oh?" Kuai Yueqi said, "In that case, you might as well calculate." ”

Liu Biao and everyone on the stage looked at Zhang Miao, and there was such a wave at the literary meeting, which made everyone very excited. No matter how Zhang Miao would answer, at least everyone's interest was aroused.
