"Yan Qing, although Lord Fang praises you, you must remember that there is no end to learning, and learning is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. You are good, but you should not be too proud. Looking at the young man in front of him who was wearing an ordinary student shirt but had an elegant temperament, Zhang Dingyuan's heart was actually full of worries. After all, the edge of the sword is sharpened, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and it is not necessarily a good thing that it is smooth sailing.

Xie Yanqing's journey to the imperial examination was too smooth, how could he not worry? I think he could be regarded as a young talent at the beginning, but he is also a talent among the sixteen talents, a person in the nineteenth school, and a jinshi in the twenty-eighth talent, this Yan Qing is really too much ahead of others.

"Teacher, don't worry, these students know it. The family saves money to provide for the students to study, and the students will not dare to live up to it. Xie Yanqing understood that Zhang Dingyuan was sincere in saying these words to him for his good.

Zhang Dingyuan nodded with satisfaction after hearing Xie Yanqing's words, he was still relatively relieved about this disciple. You must know that Xie Yanqing stays with a stubborn student like Zhou Junbo every day, but even so, Xie Yanqing has not learned badly.

"Your performance today is very good, listening to your answer today, I know that you usually read a lot of books. Having a talent that you can't remember is a great thing to do, and you should put it to good use. Xie Yanqing, who looked at and listened seriously, Zhang Dingyuan continued: "We study, not just for scientific examinations, to become a person or a jinshi, but so that we can use the knowledge we have learned to give the monarch and help the people, so we don't need to read only the books of the imperial examination wholeheartedly, and some miscellaneous books can also be read more." ”

"Our Majesty is a wise man, and today's scientific examinations are becoming more and more practical, and arithmetic and essays account for more and more points in the examination papers. I believe that you should be regarded as one of the top figures in the class of students in the county school by now, so I think you should use your talent to read more miscellaneous books and make yourself a well-read person. ”

After listening to Zhang Dingyuan's words, Xie Yanqing's mind was in chaos, and he stood there for a long time not knowing how to answer.

He is really confused now, in fact, the purpose of his original study was really just to become an official, to make himself a master, and to improve his family situation, so the books he has read for so many years are really limited to the books of the imperial examination.

"Yan Qing, maybe my words are very different from your previous concepts, you can go back and think about it first. I'm just a suggestion, but in the end, it's up to you. Zhang Dingyuan calmly stroked his beard, he understood that no one could help Xie Yanqing at present, and in the end everything had to be figured out by himself.

In fact, he once thought that he only needed to read the books of the imperial examination, and miscellaneous books were useless, but in the end, he didn't rely on the knowledge in those miscellaneous books to go to officialdom. The reason why he didn't explain this point was actually to test Xie Yanqing, looking at Xie Yanqing's back, Zhang Dingyuan secretly prayed in his heart, don't let him down.

They were almost in the room, but Xie Yanqing hadn't thought clearly, after all, this was an important choice. Reading miscellaneous books must be a waste of time, which is a bit of a conflict with his goal of becoming a jinshi quickly.

As soon as he walked into the room, Xie Yanqing heard Zhou Junbo's complaints, in this regard, he touched his nose and didn't speak, listening to Zhou Junbo say this, it seemed that part of it was really his reason.

"Yan Qing, it's all your fault, if you're not so famous, if you're not sitting next to me, then Lord Fang won't let me answer the question today."

After he finished answering the question today, Master Fang clicked on Zhou Junbo's answer, although Zhou Junbo finally answered the question, but he stammered and stammered, which was definitely not satisfactory. Well, in fact, Xie Yanqing already felt that Zhou Junbo played at a super level this time, after all, a person who usually sleeps in class, it is really good to be able to answer.

Listening to Zhou Junbo's nonsense, Xie Yanqing decided to put aside the question of whether to spend time reading more miscellaneous books first, he now has a headache in his brain and hasn't come up with a chapter yet.
