Xiaobao asked confusedly: "I understand the meaning of the first five things, what does the last arithmetic mean?" "Is it mathematical?

Concubine Li covered her lips and smiled coquettishly, and said in a somewhat mocking tone: "Arithmetic, it's an algorithm, do you understand the abacus?" ”

Xiaobao looked at Lu Jiangli as if he didn't understand: "Mother, can you help me choose?" ”

Everyone's eyes also gathered on Lu Jiangli's face.

I thought she would analyze it carefully, and then seriously help Xiaobao choose the option that he might win.

However......

Everyone underestimated the irresponsibility of a certain woman......

I saw her shrugging her shoulders indifferently, still looking relaxed and comfortable: "Xiaobao, boys must be assertive!" Just decide your own business! ”

Poof-

When the parents present heard this, they almost burst out laughing.

They have seen irresponsible parents, but they have never seen such perfunctory and irresponsible!

Let the child choose by himself?

Can a five-year-old choose what is good for him?

Sure enough, Xiaobao casually chose three: "Then count, ride a horse and calligraphy!" ”

On the seat, Mo Yunheng's handsome and abnormal face is about to turn black to the bottom of the pot, how lazy is this woman? Can't you remind Xiaobao to remind you!

He doesn't know how to count, and he still chooses to count!!

As for horseback riding, did he ever ride a horse?

As for calligraphy, he doubted that Xiaobao could write his name......

After being silent for a while, Mo Yunheng couldn't help but remind: "Xiaobao, have you ever ridden a horse?" Choose what you are familiar with! ”

Who knows, Xiaobao also learned the essence of Lu Jiangli, and blinked with a pair of innocent big eyes: "I haven't ridden a horse!" It's because I've never ridden before, so I want to ride a horse! Besides, my mother said that I must learn to challenge myself! ”

Challenge yourself?

Are he sure he's not sending him to death?

Mo Yunheng glanced at Lu Jiangli gloomily, he still wanted to stop Xiaobao, but Concubine Li opened her mouth with a smile: "What a challenge to yourself!" Miss Lu's method of educating children is really special! Ling'er, then let's follow Xiaobao's meaning and compare calculations, horseback riding and calligraphy with him! ”

The little prince has been exposed to these talents since he was a child, and he is one of the best performers among his peers, so he smiled confidently: "Okay! It's like these three! If you lose, you have to kneel down and apologize to me, and you have to give me a horse to ride! ”

Xiaobao hesitated with a tangled brow, "If you lose, I want you to apologize to Xinyue, and learn to bark!" ”

In the end, it is a child's anger, even if Xiaobao is smart, he can't take care of the overall situation.

Let the prince learn to bark at a dog, that's impossible!

Therefore, Lu Jiangli's eyes flickered faintly, and he said with a light smile: "Xiaobao, it hurts too much to learn to bark a dog!" It's better to compensate you and Xinyue for mental damages! How about 10,000 taels? When the time comes, you and Xinyue will be five thousand taels each! You can buy sugar gourds for a lifetime......"

Another 10,000 taels......

How short of money is this mother and son?

This pit of money has been pit into the harem......

Everyone held back their laughter and laughed silently.

However, Concubine Li, the queen and others felt that her behavior of seeing money was too embarrassing, and they couldn't help but show a mocking smile.

10,000 taels of silver is a drop in the bucket for the royal family!

The little prince raised his chin proudly and agreed without thinking: "Okay! Father, this time you will bear witness for us! Whoever doesn't keep his promise is a puppy! ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Hahaha, Xiao Ling'er knows that you are looking for me to be a witness?" Okay, I, all Aiqing, and Lu Yatou have heard it! This is your own game, you can't cry if you lose! ”

His words seemed to be said to the little prince, but in fact, he was reminding Lu Jiangli not to cheat.

Because, he never thought that Xiao Ling'er would lose to a child who had never been exposed to the Six Arts!

Not only did he not think of it, but even Concubine Li, the queen, Mo Yunheng, Yun Qingxue and others didn't think about it......

Xiaobao also turned his face away arrogantly, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, I am the same as my mother, I am a person of all my word!" Never cheat! ”

"Poof—"

It's good that Xiaobao didn't say this, as soon as he said this, Su Shaoqing, Mo Yunheng and the others couldn't help but squirt out a sip of tea.

After all, they have all witnessed that woman's tricks!

She dares to call it second, and it is estimated that no one dares to call it first......

Even Lu Jiangli himself was almost choked by saliva, and said with a calm smile: "Well, Xiaobao is right!" For 10,000 taels of silver, come on! ”

In order to be fair in the competition, the emperor specially invited the upright Taifu to judge arithmetic and calligraphy.

I saw that an old man with silver hair and a kind face stood up during the banquet, the old man had a silver-white beard, but his back was standing straight, and his serious eyes slowly looked at Xiaobao, not knowing what he was thinking, just brushing his beard and nodding with satisfaction.

"Your name is Xiaobao, right? What you said before was very beautiful, and the old man appreciated it very much. However, jade is not cut into a tool, and people do not know righteousness if they do not learn; Therefore, among these three competitions, as long as you win one of the little princes, the old man will implore the emperor to accept you to study in the Royal Academy, how about it? ”

Xiaobao's delicate brows furrowed slightly, with the experience of going to school that time, Xiaobao was a little disgusted with the master.

He hesitated: "I don't know if I win or not, but whether you can be my teacher or not, I have to test you before I can decide!" ”

Poof-

Another sentence is surprising.

Everyone was struck by the thunder.

Since ancient times, only the master has chosen the master, how can any student still test the master?

Besides, that's the Royal Academy! Only the children of the royal family and the children of ministers of the most outstanding rank or higher are allowed to enter!

Others sharpen their heads and can't squeeze in, he's good, and he still has to test the teacher?

Not to mention, Xiaobao's answer surprised even Taifu and Mo Yunheng!

No matter how smart a child is, he is just a child, and in the face of the absolute superior height and momentum of adults, he will instinctively be afraid, and then compromise......

Even the little prince is like this, but Xiaobao doesn't seem to know what he is afraid of!

No matter who it is, his aura and self-confidence will not be affected in the slightest.

This kind of fearless spirit is very much like Mo Yunheng and Lu Jiangwei......

Taifu was really stunned for a while before he reacted, and laughed loudly: "Hahaha...... Attaboy! For the first time, the old man met a student who was going to test the old man! Good! The old man promised you! But the premise is that you have to win one of these three competitions! Otherwise, the old man will not accept you, let alone give you a chance to test the old man! ”

Xiaobao's good-looking eyebrows and eyes were curved, and his smile was incomparably simple and bright: "Hmm." ”

And the first test is counting!

Taifu handed the two of them an abacus and read slowly: "Little prince, Xiaobao, you listen carefully to the old man's recitation." Those who know the answer raise their hands first, a total of three questions, whoever wins the most will win this round! ”

"The first question, Qibao Zhai received five hundred taels of silver the day before yesterday, and spent three hundred and twenty two hundred and fifty yuan on the purchase of medicinal materials, and asked how much money Qibao Zhai earned yesterday?"

As soon as Taifu's words fell, the little prince quickly dialed the abacus and calculated......

That action was very fast and serious, and he had a confident posture, which couldn't help but make both the emperor and Concubine Li smile.

Looking at the posture of the little prince's abacus, almost everyone thinks that the little prince has won!
