Zhou Zhi raised his head, but saw Xing Hongzheng looking at the people below with a melancholy expression. He was obviously a little impatient, and in his heart he thought that arithmetic should be a very important part, and it was necessary to make more people like arithmetic and have in-depth research on arithmetic.

But at the moment, this situation is very unsatisfactory to him. The imperial examination is Baguwen and the like, but it never involves arithmetic, so who can pay attention to it? But in many realities of life and production, arithmetic must also be used.

Xing Hong could almost feel that the imperial examination of the Ming Dynasty had shackled the hands and feet of the students and hindered the development of the Ming people's wisdom.

It makes people pay attention to arithmetic, and even changes the imperial examination, only the emperor has the final say. But Xing Hong is just a small teacher in Guozijian, where does he have the opportunity to meet or write to the emperor? Taking a step back, even if he had such an opportunity, Emperor Hongzhi would not be at his mercy.

You must know that at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, in fact, the township examination, the meeting examination and the like, arithmetic as a subject was to be examined. Somehow, Emperor Hongwu deleted it, and since then arithmetic has declined.

In Guozijian, if Xing Hong hadn't given up his small official position and insisted on asking to come to Guozijian to teach arithmetic, I'm afraid Guozijian would not have opened this subject. Speaking of which, this is still Emperor Hongzhi's wiser, and perhaps he gradually realized that "fighting the world with martial arts and ruling the world with culture." "The established national policy of the Ming Dynasty is somewhat unsuitable for the current development.

After all, there are many talented people who are rich and have done well in the imperial examination, but they are incompetent in terms of being officials and do not know arithmetic.

This may be a slight touch on the soul of Emperor Hongzhi, he is a very assertive emperor, I think that if he completely subverts his idea, let the whole people learn arithmetic, and restore arithmetic in the imperial examination, then no one can do it.

Xing Hong shook his head lightly in dismay, and sighed secretly, I only do what I should do, and I will have no regrets if I do my best.

Hehe! Judging from this, Xing Hong is very worried about the country and the people, and his mind is somewhat emancipated.

It is no wonder that at this time, the germ of capitalism has quietly appeared, but no more people are aware of it.

Xing Hong looked at everyone in disappointment, and suddenly found Zhou Zhizheng with a disdainful expression. Everyone else is lying on the table as if it were real or fake, but he is indifferent, what is the reason? Hum! It is precisely because of so many people who do not care and look down on arithmetic that arithmetic is becoming more and more regressive.

Xing Hong immediately stepped off the stage with a cold face, walked directly to Zhou Zhi's side, stretched out his hand and tapped a few times on the table in front of Zhou Zhi, and said angrily, "What is your reason?" Why don't you do the math? ”

Speaking from the heart, Zhou Zhi listened to Xing Hong's explanation just now, and he felt that he was still very shocked, Xing Hong should be very accomplished in arithmetic. In the Ming Dynasty of rejuvenating the country and governing the country in this era of literature and education, Xing Hong can have such insight in arithmetic and be so attentive to arithmetic, which really makes Zhou admire.

There are too many capable people in this country, cows!

Zhou Zhi hurriedly stood up, bowed to Xing Hongshen, and said softly, "Mr. Hui's words, the student has already calculated it!" ”

"What, what do you say? Did you figure it out? Xing Hong's eyes opened in an instant, and he almost didn't believe his ears, and asked in a loud voice.

If Zhou Zhi's voice was very low just now, few people could hear it, but at this time, Xing Hong's voice like a Hong Zhong sounded like a thunderclap in the quiet Guangye Hall.

After the explosion, there was a deathly silence at first, but after this brief silence, there was a burst of laughter.

It's so interesting, that person named Zhou Zhi actually figured it out? It's really a shame. He is a person who has just come to the country, or can he be counted by the poor sour show in the countryside? It's a dream.

By the way, he must have fallen asleep just now, right? It's not good to take Mr. Xing Hong seriously, but now he looks good.

You must know that although arithmetic is not valued by more people, it still accounts for a certain proportion of Guozijian's exams every month. Mr. Xing Hong knows everyone's difficulties, sometimes you just can't answer the question, and he will let you pass. But there is also a premise, that is, you must be honest when Mr. Xing Hong is teaching.

In a word, it doesn't matter if you can't learn arithmetic, the key is to have a correct attitude.

Zhou Zhi, a newcomer, doesn't know the rules, he is the rhythm of death!

Sure enough, Xing Hong then became furious and asked, "What's your name, so unreasonable?" Hum! Is this country a vexatious place? How can this really be true? ”

He didn't ask Zhou Zhi's answer, so he said it immediately.

Liu Wenhuan, who was at the table next to Zhou Zhi, hurriedly looked at Zhou Zhi and couldn't stop giving Zhou Zhi a look. His meaning is obvious, he wants to admit his mistakes to Mr. Xing Hong immediately, grovel and humble, and maybe get Xing Hong's forgiveness.

But Zhou Zhi turned a deaf ear.

How did he know Zhou Zhi's current thoughts? At this time, Zhou Zhi was still wondering, this Mr. Xing Hong is really an anomaly, can't I figure it out? Even if it's wrong, you should ask me if the answer is yes? But just like this, he suddenly became angry and thundered, what kind of truth is it?

In Xing Hong's mind, no one would have calculated such a topic at all. Taking a step back, if someone can figure it out, it can't be done in two hours. But now that the tea has not arrived, Zhou Zhi actually said that he would calculate it, isn't this talking nonsense and deliberately making trouble?

Before Zhou Zhi could answer Xing Hong's angry question, a voice sounded from behind Guangye Hall, "Sir, his name is Zhou Zhi, and he is new." This Zhou Zhi is a country talent, he is a little unconscious, and it is better for Mr. not to be like him. ”

Without looking back, judging by his voice, Zhou Zhi could hear that the person who spoke was Guo Xun.

Anyone can hear that Guo Xun is speaking in favor of Zhou Zhi on the surface, but in fact, he is deliberately provoking Xing Hong and humiliating and ridiculing Zhou Zhi.

"Humph! It seems that Mr. Ben can't teach a student like you? You don't have to listen to me anymore. You won't want to pass next month's exam! Xing Hong said coldly, brushed his sleeves and left.

Guozijian takes the exam every month, and failing the exam is very important, and he was recommended by Yang Yiqing to study in Guozijian. was scolded by Xing Hong like this, and he will not attend his class in the future, isn't this disgrace to his mentor Yang Yiqing's face?

And the Guo Xun in the back, what are the "four young people in Beijing"? They look down on people too much, right? The article I wrote Zhou Zhi can't be outstanding in the country prison for the time being, but is this arithmetic still difficult for me as a traverser?

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhi straightened his chest, and no longer paid attention to Xing Hong, and said in a loud voice, "There are one hundred and ninety-two lamps on the first floor, ninety-six lamps on the second floor, forty-eight lamps on the third floor, twenty-four lamps on the fourth floor, twelve lamps on the fifth floor, six lamps on the sixth floor, and three lamps on the seventh floor. ”

After saying it out loud, I still felt a little uncomfortable, so I simply said, "Hmph! Can a simple arithmetic problem like this be difficult for me? ”
