Wang Anshi gently pushed Fan Ning up and whispered in his ear: "Don't be afraid! ”

It's not a question of fear or not, if you want to compose poems and write calligraphy, you will lose face.

Helpless, Fan Ning had no choice but to step forward and kneel down for the Son of Heaven, "Xiaomin to meet the Son of Heaven, I wish the Son of Heaven a blessing to the sky, and a long life with the sky!" ”

The last eight words were said casually by Fan Ning, and after speaking, his face turned red, and he was about to dominate the rivers and lakes for thousands of generations.

Zhao Zhen didn't pay attention to what he was saying, but he was very interested in his identity, "Whose child are you?" ”

Fan Zhongyan stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, this child is Weichen's cousin, named Fan Ning. ”

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly, "It turned out to be the grandson of Fan Gong, and he was really a talent." ”

The dynasty that values prodigies the most in history is the Song Dynasty, and the emperor who likes prodigies the most in the Song Dynasty is this Song Renzong Zhao Zhen, because he himself has no children, so he has a soft spot for prodigies.

At this time, Zhang Yaozuo gently pushed his grandson, and Zhang Chun also stepped forward and knelt down to salute.

Zhao Zhen looked at the two children, although Zhang Chun is the nephew of the concubine and he is also his uncle, but in all fairness, he prefers Fan Ning, this child is dressed simply, and the kind of self-confidence, indifference, and calm temperament revealed in his bones, Zhang Chun is far from being able to compare.

Zhao Zhen smiled at Pang Ji again: "Pang Xianggong can choose one of these two children. ”

Of course, Pang Ji wanted to choose Fan Ning, Fan Zhongyan took his grandson all the way to pay homage to himself, how could he not give this face, but Zhang Guifei was the favorite concubine of the official family, if Fan Ning was directly chosen, it would offend Zhang Guifei.

Pang Ji thought for a while and smiled: "Both of them are talented prodigies, it's hard to choose!" You can only choose those who are higher in learning, today is Weichen's 60th birthday, so please ask the two children to each offer a birthday word! ”

Zhang Yaozuo hurriedly said: "I have heard that Ouyang Bachelor's calligraphy is wonderful for a long time, and Weichen recommended Ouyang Gong to record words for the two children!" ”

When this sentence came out, Fan Ning almost burst out laughing, it turned out that this Zhang child's calligraphy was also very bad, no wonder Wang Anshi told himself not to be afraid.

Zhao Zhen's face was a little ugly, he glared at Zhang Yaozuo dissatisfied, and then smiled at Ouyang Xiu: "It's troublesome Mr. Drunkard." ”

Ouyang Xiu was embarrassed for a while, and hurriedly said: "Weichen obeys the order!" ”

Of course, the writing was still written by the two of them, but Ouyang Xiu copied it again, and the calligraphy of the two of them did not count.

Fanning sighed softly, in order not to embarrass his grandfather, he had to borrow from famous poems again.

Fanning pondered for a long time, and he suddenly thought of a birthday message, which was very suitable for today's scene, and the time happened to be September 18, which was a match made in heaven.

He picked up his pen and wrote: "Fortune Operator: Quiet Chrysanthemum Day"

At this time, Zhang Chun also wrote it, but this was prepared by him in advance, since it is called a prodigy to offer his birthday, that is, he wants to write poems to dedicate to Shouweng.

Ouyang Xiu copied the words of the two with an expressionless face, and then handed them to Pang Ji, who didn't dare to look at them, and presented them to Zhao Zhen, the Son of Heaven.

At this time, Ouyang Xiu quietly gave Fan Zhongyan a thumbs up, and the admiration in his eyes was revealed, and Fan Zhongyan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Zhen had already read the words written by Zhang Chun this morning, and to be honest, it was written very ordinary, but it was barely acceptable when written by a ten-year-old child.

Zhao Zhen put aside the words written by Zhang Chun, and he carefully looked at the words filled in by Fan Ning.

"Fortune Operator: Quiet Chrysanthemum Sky"

Quietly chrysanthemum day, wash away the sycamore rain.

Beijiu was rotten around him, and he took it for his birthday.

Wearing a thousand leaves yellow, stacking the golden edge spit.

Immortal flowers are fragrant in the evening, and people are willing to be the first to see

"Good words!"

Zhao Zhen slapped the table and exclaimed: "It's a quiet chrysanthemum day, washing away the sycamore rain, and depicting the late autumn season vividly." ”

Zhao Zhen handed Fan Ning's words to everyone again, everyone was a person who knew the goods, and they all praised and applauded, Pang Ji wore a yellow chrysanthemum on his head, isn't it the yellow thousand leaves on his head?

Zhang Yaozuo's face became pale, he couldn't say a word in a half sound, he really had a heartache to make a wedding dress for someone, he wanted to make another trick, but the Son of Heaven was here, he hesitated for a long time, and finally didn't dare to turn his face and play tricks.

But if he is allowed to admit defeat and leave, he is unwilling in his heart, and he has to get the field back.

Zhang Yaozuo's eyes fell on Fan Ning, it was this little kid who snatched the opportunity of his grandson, and he was actually Fan Zhongyan's grandson.

But he also knew that his grandson Zhang Chun was far inferior to Fan Ning, and he couldn't find the field, so after thinking about it, Zhang Yaozuo had to jump out by himself.

Zhang Yaozuo walked out with a smile, "Fan Shaolang is really a prodigy!" Why don't I test you again? ”

Bao Zheng was vigilant in his heart, this Zhang Yaozuo was definitely not at ease, he was just about to say something to stop him, but Wang Anshi gently pulled him and gave him a look.

Bao Zheng followed Wang Anshi's gaze, and saw Fan Zhongyan looking at his grandson with a smile on his face, his eyes full of expectation for him.

Bao Zheng immediately stopped talking, Fan Zhongyan trusted his grandson so much, what did he have to worry about, he also looked at Fan Ning hopefully.

Fan Ning bowed slightly, and said calmly: "Please advise the national abbot!" ”

Zhang Yaozuo started with his daughter, and his literature is vulgar, but he likes couplets very much, which is the only thing he can handle.

Zhang Yaozuo raised his eyebrows, and said lightly: "Let's pair it!" If you can match it, I will admit that you are better than my grandson. ”

Fan Ning smiled slightly, calmly responding, "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, please speak!" ”

Zhang Yaozuo's small eyes slowly narrowed, shook his head and said: "There is a painting in my house, it is two monkeys cutting wood in the mountains, I will use it to make a couplet, Fan Shaolang listened, the two apes cut down the rocky mountain, and the little monkey dared to saw each other (sentence)." ”

Everyone looked at Zhang Yaozuo angrily, and even borrowed a couplet to insult a child, which was too embarrassing.

At this time, Fan Ning said unhurriedly: "A few days ago, the autumn rain in Jianghuai continued, and I saw a horse on the road stuck in the mud and it was difficult to get out. ”

As soon as the next link came out, the surrounding officials suddenly burst into laughter, Bao Zheng laughed so much that tears came out, he gave a thumbs up, and this slap was really relieved.

Fan Zhongyan smiled, Zhang Yaozuo humiliated himself in front of the official family just now, he didn't want to deal with him, so it was best to let his grandson slap him for him, you can't worry about a child!

Zhang Yaozuo's face was red and white for a while, and he really couldn't get off the stage, and in the end he had to swell and glared at Fan Ning fiercely, and stepped forward to pick up his grandson and slip away.

Zhao Zhen also smiled and said nothing, the national abbot was obviously humiliating himself, and he couldn't blame others, he didn't care, but he was really interested in Fanning, and asked, "Where is your hometown?" ”

"Jiangwan Village, Wu County, Xiaomin's hometown."

Zhao Zhen nodded, "By the way, you are the grandson of Fan Gong, and your hometown is of course Wu County, can you make another poem describing your hometown?" ”

Fan Ning was helpless, so he had to secretly confess in his heart, "Brother Lu, I'm really sorry, borrow Mobao again." ’

He walked a few steps slightly, and under the gaze of countless high-ranking officials around him, he slowly groaned:

Mo laughs at the farmer's wine, and the guests are full of chickens and dolphins in the harvest year.

There is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village.

The flute and drum follow the spring society closely, and the clothes are simple and ancient.

From now on, if you are allowed to ride the moon idlely, you will knock on the door with a cane all the time and night.

After he finished reciting, there was a round of applause in the hall, and Ouyang Xiu couldn't help but applaud loudly, "What a mountain and a heavy water have no way out, and another village is full of willows and flowers, it is really wonderful!" ”

Fan Zhongyan smiled from ear to ear, as soon as this poem came out, Sun Tzu's reputation as a prodigy was solidified, and he really gave himself a long face!

Bao Zheng patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "Old Fan, I really envy you for having such a grandson!" ”

Zhao Zhen was amazed, "Little Fanning, your hometown is so good, I really want to go and see it." ”

"If Your Majesty goes to my hometown, I will cook bacon for Your Majesty!"

There was another burst of laughter in the lobby, Zhao Zhen loved Fan Ning very much in his heart, he turned around and asked Fan Zhongyan, "Why don't you let Ling Sun take the Tongzi Examination?" ”

Fan Zhongyan hurriedly saluted, "His scripture foundation is still very weak, and his calligraphy is not good, he still needs time to hone it, and after a few more years of foundation, Weichen will let him take the Tongzi subject." ”

Zhao Zhen looked at Fan Ning and said slowly, "I hope to read your poems in the court one day earlier." ”

"Fanning will not disappoint His Majesty."

Zhao Zhen thought about it, then took off a purple jade bracelet from his wrist and handed it to him, "This is given to you, and I will give you another watchword." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Zhen pondered for a while and said: "Your name is Fan Ning, Zhuge Liang is in the "Book of Commandments", not indifferent and unambitious, non-quiet and far-reaching, I will give you the word Zhiyuan, from today on, you are also called Fan Zhiyuan." ”
