Chapter 322 What is not a talent?
With Zhu Houzhao's order, Zhou Zhi didn't dare to slack off, and walked from the statue to the old locust tree.
Moving the statue on the ice greatly reduces drag, and the use of two fixed pulleys also saves effort. But this statue of a thousand pounds of respect is not something that one or two people can pull.
As a result, Zhou Zhi led Qi Yanwu, Liu Wenhuan, He Jingming, Liu Long, and Mr. Xing Hong, Said, and some people that Zhou Zhi could talk to, there were more than 20 people.
Everyone grabbed the rope wrapped around the two fixed pulleys in unison, and pulled the rope with all their strength.
At this moment, everyone in the scene almost held their breath, staring at the tall statue with good eyes.
Even Xu Kuibi, Guo Xun and Liu Kaixian were all looking at the statue with a heart at this time. Their minds are naturally different from many people at this time, they hope that the statue will not move at all, so that they can see Zhou Zhi's jokes and let the prince punish Zhou Zhi.
As for Jiang Lun, he was punished by the prince just now, asking him to get out of the way and go home. He was in no mood at all, and he no longer cared if Zhou Zhi could move the statue. He slipped away to his lodgings, packed his belongings, and prepared to go home dejected.
To the disappointment of Xu Kuibi and the others, under the pull of more than two dozen people including Zhou Zhi, the statue began to move slowly.
"It's moving, it's really moving! My big brother can really move statues! Xiao Li Feng's eyes were the sharpest, and he immediately cheered.
"Brother Dawu, look, look, the statue has moved a lot!"
Zhu Houzhao's tiger eyes stared at the statue, and he could see clearly that the statue was moving slowly.
At first, the statue did move slowly, but when the statue slid into the ice track, it seemed to be much faster.
This force must be mastered, and the statue must not be allowed to move too fast. If you are too fast, you may deviate from the ice orbit. Derailed, off the ice, the statue could not move.
Fortunately, there is a thoughtful on-site command, and the force is even. The statue moved very smoothly, slowly moving along the ice track, and the chassis of the statue was very stable and never deflected.
At a distance of more than 100 steps, the statue moved for almost half an hour, and there was no ice track in front of it, so the statue could no longer move a little, and it stood firmly in the position that Zhou Zhi had agreed with the prince and others yesterday.
Although it was extremely cold, the two dozen or so people who pulled the rope still sweated profusely. I didn't say anything just now, and I was very nervous. At this time, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, staring at the tall statue after moving, and was speechless for a long time. The entire compound was silent.
Xu Kuibi, Guo Xun and Liu Kaixian almost didn't believe their own eyes, how could it be? It's amazing how you can move a statue in this way. Isn't God helping Zhou Zhi, a poor sour talent in the countryside?
What made them feel embarrassed and worried the most was that at this time, the crown prince Zhu Houzhao suddenly said excitedly, "Okay, Zhou Zhi is really smart, this prince actually believed what Zhou Zhi said yesterday." Today, Prince Ben actually wants Zhou Zhilai to show it to everyone.
Lao Cheng, you Guozijian not only have people like Jiang Lun who are unlearned and unskilled, but also have extremely smart and talented people! In the future, Lao Cheng still needs to manage Guozijian a lot, so that we can have a few more talents like Zhou Zhi. ”
Cheng Minzheng's face was flushed, and he nodded in agreement.
For Cheng Minzheng, like most people, he didn't believe that Zhou Zhineng had moved the statue before that. But now I can see with my own eyes that Zhou Zhi has indeed done it, and it has done it perfectly. What is this week's talent?
I didn't expect an inconspicuous country show to be so smart. The old man remembered that the smartest person in this country was Liu Kaixian, the descendant of the Liu family in the capital, but Liu Kaixian always said that Zhou Zhi was blowing nonsense. It seems that Liu Kaixian is not the smartest person, this smartest person should be thoughtful.
Of course, the imperial examination is not about moving statues. But Zhou Zhi has such a smart mind, how bad can he be in reading and writing? According to Zhuge Hou, Zhou Zhi's articles have made great progress now, and as long as Zhou Zhi continues to work hard, I believe that one day his articles will definitely be able to stand out in Guozijian.
By the way, the old man also heard that this Zhou Zhi was a student of Yang Yiqing. How could Yang Yiqing's vision be bad? If there was nothing outstanding about Zhou Zhi this week, how could Yang Yiqing look up to him so highly and accept him as an apprentice?
It seems that the old man should pay more attention to Zhou Zhi in the future.
Zhu Houzhao walked to Zhou Zhi's side, like an old leader caring for his subordinates, he was lightly afraid of Zhou Zhi's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Zhou Zhi, this prince is optimistic about you, it's amazing!" ”
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince, for your love!" Zhou Zhi hurriedly said respectfully and humbly.
"Huh! By the way, Zhou Zhi, Xiao Li Feng is your sister, you have to take care of her more in the future. Prince Ben likes her too! Zhu Houzhao's face was kind, and he began to talk and laugh.
He and Xiao Li Feng still talked the most, and they made a lot of praise for the moving statue.
Zhu Houzhao's mood seems to be extremely good today, he is smiling with his eyebrows, and naturally no one present dares to leave. Suddenly, Zhu Houzhao threw a cold gaze at Xu Kuibi, Guo Xun, and Liu Kaixian, and said, "Guo Xun, speaking of which, you reminded Prince Ben that Zhou Zhineng had a way. Hehe! But this prince can hear that you have bad intentions.
And the two of you, who also have bad intentions and want to see thoughtful jokes.
The prince wondered, after you are all nobles, you are all from famous families or wealthy families, how can you embarrass a talent from the countryside with such an open-mindedness? This prince will punish you! ”
Zhu Houzhao said that in the end, he seemed to be very angry.
Frightened, the three of them hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged the prince for forgiveness. They just saw Zhu Houzhao punish Jiang Lun with their own eyes, and asked Jiang Lun to get out of the way and go home to reflect. If they end up like this, then they will have no way to live.
Especially Liu Kaixian and Guo Xun, the family attaches great importance to their reading. was expelled from the national prison, so did their father not want their little life?
Zhou Zhi has been watching the scene in front of him, and Zhou Zhi actually knows very well that Zhu Houzhao didn't really want to punish the three of them, but just let himself and Xiao Li Feng see it. Especially Xiao Li Feng, when Zhu Houzhao was reprimanding the three of them, he was secretly glancing at Xiao Li Feng's face.
I really don't know how Zhu Houzhao took Xiao Li Feng to heart like this.
Hehe! In fact, human fate is unclear and inexplicable in many cases.
Zhou Zhi thought for a while, stepped forward and said, "The prince is angry, Zhou Zhi thinks that the three of them have no bad intentions, yesterday was just to motivate Zhou Zhi and let Zhou Zhi come up with a way." The prince may not know, if it weren't for Guo Xun, the villain really couldn't think of a way. Therefore, the villain implored the prince to let them go this time! ”
