Northern Dynasties

Li Tai didn't have any specific purpose in coming to the academy today, and he felt a little guilty when he saw Liu Ang, who looked aggrieved.

Liu Min had entrusted his son to him before, but he was busy with official duties and had been tending to Shang Yuan Village and neglected to pay attention. Now faced with Liu Ang's small request, he couldn't bear to refuse and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Li Tai agreed, Liu Ang cheered happily, and then took Li Tai's wrist and walked happily to Mengxue School.It was only after walking a long distance that he slowed down and muttered in a low voice, "It seems that he forgot something..."

Li Tai also looked back, and saw that forgotten "thing" was not far behind them, the expression on his face was still somewhat numb.

At this moment, Liu Ang also remembered his mission, and quickly let go of Li Tai's hand and walked towards Yang Jian. After apologizing for a while, he said: "Students in the school can call each other by name or small characters, or the number of people in the family. My name Liu Ang, you can introduce yourself as you like to be called."

Knowing that Yang Jian was taciturn, Li Tai replied on his behalf: "His name is Yang Jian, you can also call him Yang Da."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Yang Jian frowned and corrected him: "Call me Na Luo Yan!"

Na Luoyan means Vajra Warrior in Buddhism. It can be seen that Yang Jian is very satisfied with this small character, and he is also willing to be called this way. Under the dull appearance, there is actually a burning soul of the second class.

In the school, a group of students sat in a circle, and there were two seats surrounded by them. In each of the two seats, a child was sitting at his desk writing something, while the children sitting around were watching them with great interest. .

"These two dissatisfied with the lessons taught by Mr., they only said that they were too simple and not difficult. So Mr. specially gave them a few math problems. As long as they can solve them, he will set up lessons for them alone."

Liu Ang went to the window of the school, first looked inside, and then said to Li Tai with a ostentatious smile: "It's all the old arithmetic problems that they learned in Zhuangshang before, but they haven't learned it yet. Solving the method is very difficult to solve. I was already solving it when I left, and I haven’t finished solving it yet. If it were me, it would only take half a quarter of an hour.”

Li Tai stood outside the window and looked in, and found a question written on the hanging blackboard: Someone has stolen a horse and has gone 37 miles. The horse owner is aware that the horse has been chased for 145 miles and is still 23 miles away. How many miles will it take to catch up?

This question is a question in "Zhang Qiu Jian Suan Jing". Zhang Qiu Jian was a member of the Zhang clan in Qinghe, Hebei Province during the Northern Wei Dynasty. Li Tai's family also lived in Qinghe County in the past, so he incorporated "Zhang Qiu Jian Suan Sutra" into his family study. It is used by middle school students to enlighten their children.

This is a relatively typical ratio problem. After chasing 145 miles, it is still 23 miles away, which means that within 145 miles, it is close to 37-23=14 miles, 14:145=23:X.Although it is simple to say, it is quite difficult for seven or eight-year-old children who have not been exposed to such problems and do not have this kind of arithmetic logic to figure it out clearly.

"I figured it out, figured it out! It's just that the numbers are a little broken..."

At this moment, the children in the seats on the left side of the hall suddenly raised their hands and cheered.

Li Tai took a quick look and was overjoyed, it turned out that this boy was actually Su Chuo's son Su Wei.The last time we met was at Su Chuo's funeral. This kid was young but very sad. Li Tai was a little worried when he saw it. Now he has already taken off his clothes and is much older than then. He looks very smart healthy.

Li Tai didn't explain this specifically, but he didn't want Su Wei to be sent to his own school by his family.It's normal when you think about it. The elementary students enrolled in the school are children who are in the period of enlightenment.

At this age, the talents and talents have not been fully revealed. The so-called merit-based admission is just empty talk, and the only ones that can be recruited are the children of relatives and friends.If you don't know someone well, I'm afraid you won't trust your child to him.

Su Chuo was Li Tai's recommender, although the man is no longer around, but this friendship is still preserved.Now that the reputation of Longyuan Academy is strong, it is only natural that his clan entrusts Su Wei here.

"I figured it out too!"

Following Su Wei, another child also raised his hand and answered.And this boy Li Tai also knew him, it was Gao Bin's son Gao Jiong, who had been a guest in the mansion with his father before.Gao Bin is now serving as the governor of Xihe County, and Li Tai can be regarded as his half-lord, so there is nothing wrong with entrusting his son here.

After seeing these two boys, Li Tai turned his head to look at Yang Jian who was at the side, and saw that this boy was also staring at the blackboard, muttering something, thinking that he was also silently calculating the questions, but he couldn't do it right, there was no way at all. What clues to solve the problem.

The teacher in the school was quite surprised when he heard that the two men had finished solving the problem one after another. He went up to check it out and found that the answer was correct, so he also smiled and praised a few words.

Seeing this, the other students in the classroom applauded and applauded.At this moment, Su Wei and Gao Jiong are able to question their husband and solve the problem of super-class. In their eyes, it is absolute and heroic.And amidst the cheers and applause from their classmates, both of them were as proud as little roosters fighting for victory, with their chins raised high, enjoying this little highlight moment of life.

"We want to learn the essence of Governor Li's strategy and the secrets of invincible military tactics. Sir, please stop using these calculations about how to pay for catching thieves!"

After solving the question given by the master, the two boys were so motivated that they looked at the husband and raised their demands loudly.

Mr. Xuetang couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this. Why do you think I am here to teach you little brats?If I understand the gist of Li Dadu's military tactics and strategies, how about I lead the troops and become the Dadu myself?
Although there is no invincible art of war cheats, this gentleman still has some methods for brats.

He took down the blackboard on it and replaced it with another one, pointing to the new problem on it, he said with a smile to the schoolchildren: "How can you teach the Dharma lightly? You wait for the young disciples to be complacent when they only solve simple arithmetic problems. If you are more advanced, you will be at your wits end. And if you can solve this problem, you will be qualified for the first glimpse."

Su Wei and Gao Jiong were so arrogant at the moment, how could they be afraid of new challenges? They were ready to let their husband see their superb IQ and skills again: "Today, a rooster is worth five, and a hen is worth five." One chicken is worth three, and three chickens are worth one. If you buy a hundred chickens for a hundred dollars, how much are the roosters, hens, and chicks?"

The other students in the school were also envious of Su Wei and Gao Jiong, and were eager to try out the new questions. But when they saw this question, they were a little dumbfounded.At first, I thought it should be a very simple question, but if I thought about it more carefully, I found that my mind was a mess and there was no clue at all.

Li Tai outside the door couldn't help being amused when he saw this question. This hundred-chicken question is the most important and typical question in "Zhang Qiu Jian Suan Jing", it is a problem of three-variable indeterminate equations.Its problem-solving ideas have long been beyond the scope of elementary school, and even many mathematicians in ancient times could not give a simple, clear and easy-to-understand problem-solving ideas.Now in this elementary school, it is exactly this gentleman who is making things difficult for the students.

Some schoolchildren thought it was difficult to solve this problem with their own intelligence and knowledge, and soon gave up wisely. After seeing that Gao Jiong and Su Wei were both scratching their heads and frowning, they stopped worrying about it. , turned his attention to other places, and soon made a pleasant discovery.

"That, that's Governor Li!"

Soon someone saw Li Tai standing outside the school, and after a little recognition, they shouted with surprise on their faces, and the others followed the prestige, each of them was also surprised.But because they didn't get Mr. Xuetang's permission, although they were pleasantly surprised, they just whispered in their seats and didn't dare to leave the table.

The school teacher also noticed Li Tai, stood up and bowed slightly, looked back at the expectant eyes of the students, then smiled and announced that the class would be dismissed for the time being, and let the students take advantage of the break to admire the idol's demeanor.

At this time, all the students also poured out of the classroom, eager to come forward to express their closeness and admiration, but they were timid and held back.

Liu Ang walked up to Li Tai at this moment, and said proudly to his classmates: "I said before that I have lived with Li Dadu for many years, but you still refuse to believe it. Today, you can bring Dadu here by yourself. Asked!"

Li Tai also gave Liu Ang a face-saving smile and said: "Yes, if you have any questions, feel free to ask."

"Excuse me, Governor Li, why did you choose Shouyang, Huainan, to fight Murong Shaozong in the middle of the year?"

Gao Jiong, who was still at his desk solving problems before, had already squeezed in front of the students, and raised his hand to ask questions after hearing the words.The other students are also unwilling to lag behind. They are all born in official families, and they are naturally no strangers to current affairs information, especially Li Tai, who has been in the limelight this year. All kinds of questions want to ask.

"Why don't you ask me if it's true that I lived in Li Dadu's house?"

Liu Ang saw his classmates asking questions in a hurry, but they didn't ask about the previous doubts about him. He immediately reminded him a little aggrieved, but he was quickly drowned out by all kinds of noise, and no one paid any attention to him.This poor boy still doesn't know the dangers of the world, who cares how many bowls of noodles the six sons eat?
Because the students were too enthusiastic and asked too many questions, Li Tai simply occupied a class time to satisfy the curiosity of these students, and answered a few questions that everyone focused on one by one.

The small commotion here has also attracted the attention of the students in other classrooms. Dugushan, Cui Hongdu and other teenagers who are older than each other also rushed to hear the news. When they saw Li Tai, they were also overjoyed and moved forward. Come to show your courtesy to each other, and show off your close relationship with Li Dadu in front of the school children.

For example, Dugushan, he was beaten and taught a lot by his father because he made a fool of himself and stuffed his younger sister into the dowry when he got married. But one mouthful and one brother-in-law called each other very kindly.When Li Tai was sitting on the school chair, he ran back and forth in the school with a ruler in his hand to maintain order.

Dozens of students from three classes in the elementary school were attracted here, filling the classroom to capacity.Students from other schools also came after hearing the news, making the classroom even more crowded. Dugushan and several other older Mongolian boys were responsible for driving these outside students away and not allowing them to come and join the class.

Although those students were older and more powerful, they did not dare to argue and act recklessly in front of Governor Li. They could only bow and leave.

But there were some who were not so obedient. Yu Wenyu, who was studying at the Confucian Classics School, also came here after hearing the news and wanted to talk to Li Tai. When he saw Dugu Shan rushing people here, he smiled and said: "Fu Tuo , don’t you recognize me? Are you going to drive me out too?”

The marriage contract between Yu Wenyu and Duguxin's second daughter is imminent, and the ceremony has already begun. They will be married in the spring of next year, so they often visit Duguxin's mansion recently, and they naturally become familiar with these brothers-in-law.

Dugushan showed embarrassment behind hearing the words, and after pondering for a while, he raised the ruler in his hand and said, "Duke Ning, I'm sorry, although I recognize you, I don't recognize you with the ruler in my hand! My brother-in-law is a well-behaved person. Enter the museum and teach Mengtong, I can't let irrelevant people harass my brother-in-law! Drink, go back!"

Yu Wenyu was forced to withdraw, she felt aggrieved in her heart, the one in the room is your brother-in-law, am I not?
After forcing all the outsiders to retreat, Dugushan and the others returned to each other and stood beside Li Tai like a loyal guard. Ri crouched down.

While answering the students' questions casually, Li Tai flipped through the roster of elementary school children. It didn't matter after looking through it, he actually became nervous.Apart from Gao Jiong and Su Wei, Zheng Daoyong's son Zheng Yi, Cui Xuanyou's son Cui Zhongfang, etc. are all among them.

He lowered his eyes to look at Yang Jian who had already entered the classroom and sat on the seat, and was more conspicuous because of his growing upper body. This is where all the founders of the Sui Dynasty from the founding emperor to the founding heroes gathered here!
When I think about the fact that my Lu Zhuang ambition has not yet been achieved, this group of little bastards who are waiting for the top have already completed their historic gathering. Don't let yourself become a tiger and end up making wedding clothes for others!

But at the moment, these boys naturally don't know what they represent. They all raised their faces and listened intently to Li Tai's summary of this year's series of wars, with expressions full of admiration and yearning.Yang Jian, the first generation leader of the Sui Dynasty, was a bit unsociable. He frowned and waved his arms in an attempt to drive away a few schoolchildren who were very close to him. He seemed a little irritable because he was not used to such a crowded and noisy environment.

The class ended quickly. When Li Tai stood up, the students, although they were still unfinished, respectfully said goodbye and followed Li Tai away.
