Chapter 108: Why Stop Him Being Three?
After returning from the Fang family, Tang Ning said to his scholar: "Wang Fu, go and find out, what is the origin of the father and mother of this Jinxi prodigy Fang Zhongyong?" ”
Hearing Tang Ning's request, the little scholar was a little puzzled: "Young master, why are you inquiring about other people's parents?" ”
Tang Ning waved his hand and said: "You don't care about this, let you go, I will be rewarded for hearing the news that I have gotten young master!" Then he said, "Don't let anyone know about this, do you hear that?" ”
Hearing that there was a reward, the little scholar naturally agreed with a smile, which made Tang Ning feel the charm of money, and what made him even more emotional was that it didn't take long for the little scholar to come back, and it also brought him a strong news.
I saw the little scholar god mysteriously said to Tang Ning: "Young master, this Fang Zhongyong's father is an ordinary farmer, and his ancestors have been in our Jinxi for generations, there is nothing special. But do you know where his mother came from? ”
"Nonsense, if I knew, would I need you to find out?" Tang Ning said angrily.
Hearing Tang Ning say this, the little scholar also knew that he had gone too far in pretending to be mysterious, so after smiling, he hurriedly replied: "Speaking of which, she and we are still a family!" She turned out to be the maid in front of the ancestor, called Zhixue, and it is said that she is still very favored, but later she didn't know what mistakes she made, and she was pointed out by the ancestor to Fang Youcai, the father of the current Fang Zhongyong, more than ten years ago. (The name Zhixue is based on Wang Anshi's sentence "Knowing that it is not snow, because there is a dark fragrance")
The ancestor mentioned by this little scholar is Wang Anshi's grandmother, and this time he went to Jinxi to follow his father to celebrate his grandmother's birthday, so Tang Ning suddenly realized: "Oh, I'll just say, she doesn't look like an ordinary village woman, it turns out to be a maid in front of the ancestor." ”
After knowing the news, Tang Ning had a guess in his mind, so he continued to ask: "Then I don't know how this Zhixue's writing is?" ”
The little scholar gave a thumbs up and said: "I heard that it is very good, because she is responsible for serving the pen and ink to the ancestors, so she is especially pleasing to the ancestors." ”
"And what did she make Grandmother angry about?" Tang Ning asked curiously.
The little scholar's face darkened, and he replied with some embarrassment: "I don't know about this, after all, this was more than ten years ago, and it seems to involve a secret, so I inquired and many people don't know." ”
"Secret? Hehe, it seems that this thing is really interesting! Tang Ning muttered to himself, and then gave the little scholar a reward for him to find a way to continue to investigate without being noticed.
He quietly opened the task system and filled in the answer, "The mystery of Fang Zhongyong's prodigy is because his mother knows that Xueyuan is a maid of a large family and is very literate, so she secretly taught Fang Zhongyong to read and write when he was a child, and Fang Zhongyong's poems were also written by his mother for him." ”
Tang Ning thought that his guess was very logical, but he didn't expect the system to reply: "The answer is wrong!" ”
Seeing this result, Tang Ning was very surprised, because this was the biggest possibility he could detect at present, first of all, what kind of prodigy he was born with, Tang Ning would never believe it, otherwise the system would not need to generate this task; Then, through two contacts, Tang Ning determined that Fang Zhongyong was definitely not a traverser; And his father, whether it is his own contact, or the scholar's inquiry and his uncle's introduction, is definitely an ordinary person; And his mother Zhixue's suspicion is too great, not to mention her unusual experience, just the excitement she showed after seeing her today, there must be something wrong here, but why is the answer not her?
Just when Tang Ning was puzzled, someone suddenly walked in, and when he saw Tang Ning in a daze, he asked, "An Shi, you don't want to read your book well, what are you thinking here?" ”
Tang Ning looked up and saw that this person was Wang Anshi's father, Wang Yi and Wang Shunliang, so he hurriedly got up and saluted: "Report to my father, the child, the child is thinking about how to apply what he has learned." ”
Hearing Tang Ning's obviously perfunctory answer, Wang Yi was a little displeased, so he said with a straight face: "Oh? Thinking about how to apply what you have learned? Okay, I'll test you! ”
"Father, please!" Tang Ning replied stubbornly.
"Well, I have a friend in Linjiang, and he and his neighbor are going to build a house, and the two families have a dispute over the adjacent land, so this friend of mine repaired the book to me and asked me to intervene when I went back. Anshi, how do you say that this matter should be handled by the father so that it will not displease my friend and will not disregard the law of the country because of it? Wang Yi asked in a deep voice. (At this time, Wang Yi served as a judge in Linjiang)
Because he was born in an official eunuch family, and Wang Anshi has been talented since he was a child, Wang Yi has always been very demanding of him, and often uses the problems encountered in his work to test him, but today this is obviously Wang Yi is a little dissatisfied, so he deliberately took a very difficult problem to deal with to embarrass his son, and also wanted to give him a warning.
But what he didn't expect was that after listening to this question, Tang Ning almost laughed out loud, because this was almost exactly the same as the story of Zhang Ying, the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty (that is, Zhang Tingyu's father), so he pretended to think for a while, and then replied: "Father, the child thought of a poem, and I think that this uncle will not quarrel again after seeing it!" ”
"Oh? What poem has so much power? Wang Yi asked curiously.
Tang Ning didn't answer directly this time, but wrote with a pen: "Hundred miles of books are only for the wall, so why not let him be three feet?" The Great Wall is still there today, and I don't see Qin Shi Huang back then! ”
After reading Tang Ning's poem, Wang Yi couldn't help but exclaim: "My son is a great talent! I'm so talented! Believe my friend, after reading this poem, he will never do this size battle with his neighbors again, especially this sentence makes him three feet, it is really bold and big! The last sentence of the Great Wall is still there, and it can be used as an epigram for the world when Qin Shi Huang is gone! ”
Taking advantage of Wang Yi's good mood at this time, Tang Ning immediately asked about Zhixue back then, but what he never expected was that this question actually implicated a series of things later!
PS: I suddenly found out that I made a mistake, chapters 106 and 107 should have been put into the "Hurt Zhongyong" volume, but I got it into the Yule volume, but unfortunately I can't adjust it now, so I have to wait until the editor goes to work!
