Chapter 11: A blockbuster
It was not Wei Chen who spoke, but Sheng Wei.
He changed the Sheng clan study to the Sheng family's Yixue, recruited students from Quanyouyang, and also provided free food and lodging for poor students.
Even if Wang Xuezheng was able to come to Sheng's Yixue this time, Sheng Wei was secretly working hard.
Sheng Weisa went out for a full hundred taels of silver to feed a master beside Wang Xuezheng and let him blow the wind in Wang Xuezheng's ears.
Sheng Wei knew that if he let the scholar leave like this today, the reputation of Sheng's Yixue would be completely ruined, and all his plans would be in vain.
Therefore, Sheng Wei could only stand up and ask Wang Xuezheng and Feng Zhixian to stay.
It's just that Sheng Wei's mood at the moment is too eager, and his hasty behavior is inevitably a little out of order, just saying that this is blocking the actions of the two officials is very reckless, especially since he is just a businessman, it is even more unreasonable.
If you meet a mean and arrogant official, you may have to punish him on the spot.
Feng Zhixian turned his head and looked at Sheng Wei, his face was very unhappy.
This Sheng Wei is also knowledgeable and interesting on weekdays, and he is quite bold in his shots, why is he so ignorant today!
When Feng Zhixian was about to open his mouth to rebuke Sheng Wei, he saw another person step forward, it was Shi Kai, a boy sitting in the hall in Yixue.
Shi Kai took a step forward, bowed and saluted: "There are not no disciples in Yixue who can be cultivated, please try it again!" ”
Wang Xuezheng turned sideways and glanced at Shi Kai, and when he saw that he was not wearing a Sifang Pingding scarf, he knew that he had no fame, and immediately asked, "Who are you?" ”
Shi Kai said: "The late-born Shi Kai, who was lucky enough to pass the government examination three years ago, is now sitting in the hall in Yixue. ”
Wang Xuezheng nodded when he heard this, but he didn't underestimate Shi Kai because he was just a child, but said warmly: "Every time there is a big event, there is calm, quiet and then can be safe, and then you can worry, and then you can get it, as a sitting hall, you should carefully teach students this truth." ”
Shi Kai knew that Wang Xuezheng was talking about Chen Jun's cowardice on the spot, and he was ashamed, Chen Jun was his elected representative, and he was also to blame for this kind of thing.
Shi Kai gritted his teeth, took a step forward, and said loudly: "Master Xuezheng is above, and the late student implores the adult to try the last person again." ”
Wang Xuezheng smiled and was noncommittal.
Shi Kai was overjoyed at the moment, knowing that Wang Xuezheng had acquiesced, and hurriedly said to Wei Chen behind him: "Wei Chen, you have memorized the four books well, why don't you let Master Xuezheng take the test?" ”
Memorize four books?
Hearing Shi Kai say this, everyone present shook their heads secretly.
Among the four books and five classics, the five classics can be elective, but the four books are compulsory courses.
Now Shi Kai actually asked the students of the University of Academic Science and Technology to memorize the four books, isn't it ridiculous?
However, some people followed Shi Kai's gaze and saw a young Meng Tong standing up, it was Wei Chen, who was alongside Chen Jun.
After seeing Wei Chen's age, everyone understood Shi Kai a little.
At this age, it is good to be able to read three hundred thousand thousands, and if you can memorize four books, it is indeed quite rare.
Seeing Shi Kai nodding to himself, Wei Chen immediately lifted his spirits, took a big step forward, and bowed deeply to Wang Xuezheng: "Student Weichen, please ask Master Xuezheng to take the exam!" ”
Wang Xuezheng had already met Wei Chen before, but at that time, his attention was all on Chen Jun, and he didn't pay too much attention to this Meng Tong, who looked like he was only about ten years old.
At this time, he looked at Wei Chen again, and found that this Meng Tong behaved calmly, was young and old, and his temperament alone was more than a step stronger than the previous Chen Jun.
Wang Xuezheng's eyes couldn't help but light up, and praised: "At a young age, you have such a dignified bearing!" ”
Hearing Wang Xuezheng's praise, Sheng Wei and Shi Kai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and even Feng Zhixian, who was bent on leaving, looked at Wei Chen.
Wang Xuezheng smiled and asked, "Just now, your husband said that you have studied four books, how did you memorize them?" ”
Wei Chen replied: "Back to the University of Political Science, students have worked hardest in Mencius for the longest time, and it can be said that they are reciting it backwards. ”
Before Wei Chen's words fell, he heard Sun Zhigao in the crowd sneer: "Reciting like a stream? You're going to recite one backwards for me to see? ”
Sun Zhigao has been quite dissatisfied with Wei Chen since he heard that Wei Chen handed over the bundle to Shi Kai, and felt that Wei Chen was deliberately dishonoring him, so he never waited to see Wei Chen.
Forget it on weekdays, at this time, seeing Wei Chen showing his face in front of Wang Xuezheng, Sun Zhigao didn't know what his psychology was, so he couldn't help but sneer.
The rest of the people present were a little stunned when they heard Sun Zhigao say this, and they didn't know what Sun Zhigao's intentions were.
Aren't you a family, why are you still tearing down the stage?
When Sheng Wei heard the prestige, he saw that it was his good son-in-law who spoke, and he was so angry that he almost had a myocardial infarction, and he couldn't wait to go over and slap Sun Zhigao with a big mouth.
What is the situation today?
The Sheng's Yixue represented by Weichen is both prosperous and loss-making with Sheng's Yixue.
Sun Zhigao, as a teacher of the school of righteousness and the son-in-law of the Sheng family, actually demolished his own people's platform in public, which is simply stupid to the extreme!
However, Sheng Wei also knows what kind of virtue his son-in-law is, he only cares about himself, and I am afraid that he does not take the honor and disgrace of the Sheng family to heart at all.
At this time, Sheng Wei could only hope that Weichen would be more competitive and deal with it properly in front of the Xuezheng adults.
Wei Chen's face was pale, he turned his head and arched his hand, and said loudly: "Thank you Mr. Sun for mentioning it!" Then he faced Wang Xuezheng and asked respectfully: "Dare to ask Master Xuezheng, can students recite "Mencius" backwards?" ”
Wang Xuezheng couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Wei Chen's calm appearance, then laughed, waved his hand and said, "Let's start!" ”
"If you have nothing, if you have nothing, and if you don't have it, the people who live there are holy ......"
Wei Chen put his hands behind his back, and slowly spoke with the usual steps of a reader's endorsement, speaking clearly, without the slightest stagnation and pause.
"It is also a conquest that is not an enemy of the country, and it is also a levy for those who go down. There are rules, and this is good for the other......"
When Wei Chen finished reciting a piece of "Mencius with All His Heart" word for word, everyone present listened with their mouths wide open and their faces full of disbelief.
This kid is really reciting "Mencius" backwards!
Sun Zhigao still didn't believe it, so he immediately found a copy of "Mencius" and compared it with Wei Chen's memorization word by word, but the result was all right.
“…… Hu Guowu is a general, and he is far away: the king. Wang Huiliang saw Zimeng. ”
The last word fell, and the hall was silent, everyone stared at Wei Chen with shocked faces, and those who had a heart quietly looked at Wang Xuezheng's face, waiting with bated breath for his evaluation.
Wang Xuezheng was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: "Young man, do you have the scroll by your side, and take it to take a look at the official." ”
Shi Kai and Sheng Wei were overjoyed when they heard this, knowing that the Xuezheng University had recognized Wei Chen's talent, and this was to take a deeper test for Wei Chen.
