Chapter 487: The Great Fool
"If you don't say it, I forgot about it. In that case, you should participate in the quiz! Xiao Xuanliang made a pretended to be enlightened, glanced at Yan Fang approvingly, and said.
"Yes." Yan Fang immediately agreed loudly.
Then, he turned his head to look at Qiu Qitong, ready to urge Qiu Qitong to ask questions.
Qiu Qitong had been staring at the movement here, and when he saw him looking over, he hurriedly said: "Gonggong Yan, now, you got the shuttlecock, it stands to reason that you have to guess in turn which three poems are in the top three of our third-grade poetry group in this poetry competition, and who are their authors." ”
"However, you came late and didn't hear me announce the names of the top three students in the third-grade poetry group in public, nor did you hear me read the top three poems in the third-grade poetry competition in public."
"It's better for me to announce and read all these to you in public, and then you can guess."
"Okay, thanks." Yan Fang nodded seriously.
In fact, he had already sent a secret guard to the Smoke and Rain Pavilion to peek at the names of the top three students in the third-grade poetry group, and which of their poems they were.
However, as Qiu Qitong said, he came late, and he didn't hear Qiu Qitong announce the names of the top three students in the third-grade poetry group in public, nor did he hear Qiu Qitong read out the top three poems in the third-grade poetry group in public.
Therefore, he was originally preparing to pretend to find Xiao Qiongzhi and inquire about these situations in public.
Next, Qiu Qitong quickly announced the names of the top three students in the third-grade poetry group again, and announced the top three poems in the third-grade poetry group to the public, before asking Yan Fang who the authors of the third-grade poetry group and the top three poems were.
Yan Fang deliberately pondered for a while before he replied with a confident face: "The first poem was written by Ji Yun, the second poem was written by Yao **, and the third poem was written by Shen Chunliang." ”
The answer is absolutely correct! What's next-"
"Wait!"
Qiu Qitong was about to follow the old rules again, making an exception to ask Yan Fang, the three authors, the rankings they won this time, but Xiao Xuanliang suddenly interrupted Qiu Qitong's words.
"Yan Fang, I remember that your level of appreciation of poetry is not high, how can you see it. These three poems are written by these three authors? Xiao Xuanliang asked curiously.
In fact, the question he raised is also a question in the hearts of most people.
After all, Yan Fang is a father-in-law, and in history, throughout the ages, very few guilds understand poetry, not to mention, they can hear a certain poem and guess who the author of the poem is.
Of course, there will also be some simple people like Aunt Xu and Aunt Zhou, who will think that Yan Fang can guess correctly just because of good luck.
Because, from Qiu Qitong's quiz to the present, they have heard Qiu Qitong's poems of each grade's ancient style, quatrain, and rhyme poetry group announced successively, and they have repeatedly guessed in their hearts, but they have never guessed correctly once.
In their minds, they think that all those who can guess correctly must be lucky to guess correctly.
"Your Majesty, as I told you, I learned some mathematics and science from the master of Huangtingguan in Hengzhou, and this time, I used this method to accurately guess the corresponding authors of the three poems." Yan Fang said confidently.
"Oh? You have learned some mathematics and physics with the master of Hengzhou Huang Tingguan, I know, but with this method, I was able to accurately guess the corresponding authors of the three poems just now, which surprised me. ”
"Can you tell me exactly how this method is applied?" Xiao Xuanliang asked again with a curious expression.
"The mathematics of the name Ji Yun shows that he is talented, but he is introverted by nature, and among the three poems that Dean Qiu read just now, the poem called "Qing Yang" is relatively restrained in terms of artistic conception and skills, so I am sure that "Qing Yang" is written by Huan Yun."
"The mathematics of the name Yao ** shows that she is full of spirituality and has a gentle temperament, and the three poems read by Dean Qiu just now ......"
……
In this way, Yan Fang explained to Xiao Xuanliang in great detail the mathematical characteristics of the names of Ji Yun, Yao **, and Shen Chunliang, as well as the method of selecting the corresponding poems from the three poems.
This very godly approach seemed so reasonable, and at once almost everyone present cast a look of great admiration for him.
Even Prince Yi, Prince Zhao, Prince Kun and others are no exception.
Only Xiao Qiongzhi was secretly funny, and admired Xiao Xuanliang and Yan Fang's level of fooling people so much.
Because, others don't know, she is clear about Yan Fang's origin.
Xiao Zhengzhen once told her that the biggest reason why Yan Fang could become one of Xiao Xuanliang's cronies was because Yan Fang was sent to Xiao Xuanliang by Xiao Xuanliang's maternal grandfather's father, and he grew up with Xiao Xuanliang since he was a child.
Xiao Xuanliang does not believe in Buddhism and Taoism, so it is naturally impossible to allow the most trusted people around him to learn some of the doctrines of Buddhism and Taoism.
For example, the so-called mathematics taught by the Huang Ting Guan Guan Master that Yan Fang said, Yan Fang must not have really learned it.
He must have used the secret guard a long time ago to get the result of who the three writers of the three rhythmic poems in the third grade were, and then, according to this result, the so-called mathematical characteristics of human names.
And his approach, invisibly, has the effect of helping Taoists promote Huang Tingguan.
This marks that Xiao Xuanliang has opened the second vein of Ren Du and became a top master because of Xiao Qiongzhi and Xiao Zhen's family service under the immortal dew given by Gu Ling, and he has witnessed Xiao Qiongzhi being recognized by Yao Guangchai, and now, he has also begun to reject Taoists who advocate cultivating immortals, and even have the meaning of friendship.
Since such signs have started today, it is expected that in the near future, the history of Buddhism overpowering Taoism in the Great Depression will be gone forever.
"It makes sense, it seems that some things in Taoism still have a certain practicality in life." Xiao Xuanliang nodded after Yan Fang finished explaining, and said very cautiously.
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Xiao Qiongzhi again, and said softly: "Zhi'er, Yan Fang learned very good and practical mathematical knowledge from the Huang Ting Guan Master. ”
"You are young, curious, and have a strong learning ability, if you are interested in these mathematical knowledge, you can ask him for advice after receiving the prize of the poetry competition."
"Okay." Xiao Qiongzhi nodded obediently.
However, she knew in her heart that Xiao Xuanliang's true meaning was definitely not like this, because Yan Fang couldn't do it at all, did he really understand what so-called mathematics and physics were.
He should have used this excuse to let her enter the palace so that he could tell her something important.
"Father-in-law Yan, you are the fourth person to guess everything right at one time. Now, I'll make an exception and give you one more chance to guess. ”
"Guess what, in Ji Yun, Yao **, and Shen Chun's poetry manuscripts, who is the first, who is the second, and who is the third?"
