The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 176 The Obsession of the Child Prodigy

Xie Shen was slightly taken aback.

Teacher Zheng?Isn't Confucius teaching today?

Xie Shen didn't have a good impression of this teacher Zheng.Compared with Confucian teachings, this gentleman is old-fashioned and strict, and does not care about students.
The most important thing is that Zheng Xun has a low education background.Kong Jiaoyu was born as a second-class Jinshi, and he devoted himself to the education of the Ming Dynasty for his great and lofty ideals.But this Zheng Xundao came from a juren background.Although it is common sense for a person to serve as a county school teacher, it seems a bit inadequate compared with the teaching of Confucius.

Everything is afraid of comparison, this sentence really makes sense.

It stands to reason that Zheng Xundao, who was born in Juren, has a higher education than the county students, so there is still no problem in township.But Xie Shen is not an ordinary student. He is the leader of the county examination, the government examination, and the college examination. He is the proud student of Confucianism. A child prodigy who is praised by everyone.

Although the Ming Dynasty was rich in child prodigies, there were not many child prodigies in the Hongzhi Dynasty so far.Compared with the Chenghua Dynasty, where the child prodigy exploded, it was indeed somewhat unsatisfactory.

Still the same sentence, everything is afraid of comparison.It stands to reason that Emperor Hongzhi is much more holy than the previous Chenghua emperor, and the Ming Dynasty is also a thriving and prosperous scene under the hard work.

However, the heavens failed to fulfill people's wishes. During the reign of Emperor Chenghua, who made the Ming Dynasty a mess, all kinds of child prodigies sprang up. Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and others all appeared together.But when Emperor Hongzhi came to the throne, the child prodigy was cut off all of a sudden.

Luck is really mysterious and mysterious, and Xie Shen himself would never believe it.But since time travel, Xie Shen no longer dares to use his previous outlook on life to apply life in the Ming Dynasty.In addition, the old Taoist priest by the West Lake's prophecy of peach blossom catastrophe more or less came true, Xie Shen was even more concerned.

Logically speaking, Xie Shen is now 13 years old, and if all goes well, the time to take the next provincial examination should be two years later, when Xie Shen will be 15 years old.

Qiu Wei was on the list, and after another year, Xie Shen was 16 years old when he went to the capital to take part in the general examination and palace examination in spring.

If you can become a Jinshi at the age of 16, you can barely be regarded as a child prodigy.

Although the sensational effect is definitely not as good as that of twelve or thirteen years old, at least there is someone worth bragging about after counting the two capitals and thirteen provinces of Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Hongzhi is so holy, but he has never been a child prodigy, but he is anxious to kill those officials in the Ministry of Rites.The child prodigy generally has the same function as auspiciousness, and it will only appear in prosperous times.

But today's son is holy and thin-skinned, it would be too naked for the courtiers to offer auspiciousness directly, and the emperor may not appreciate it and will in turn reprimand the courtiers who gave auspiciousness.

You must know that the appearance of auspiciousness means that today's day has great merit, and if you go further, it will be Taishan Fengchan.

However, Emperor Hongzhi is a relatively low-key person, and things that waste people and money like Feng Chan must never be done.

Then, changing the pattern or changing the packaging to create a child prodigy is obviously more in line with the emperor's wishes.

The Son of Heaven is also a human being, and as a human being, he has vanity. Even a sage monarch like Emperor Hongzhi would definitely want to hear good words that praise his merits and virtues.

If Xie Shen is really able to enter the imperial examination at the age of 16, he is likely to be praised as a model.
How could such a young man with great prospects endure being bossed around by a mentor who was born in Juren?
Xie Shen was very distressed, thinking about how to report the situation to Kong Jiaoyu.Even if Kong Jiaoyu can't change Zheng Xundao to teach other insignificant courses, don't jump out every time to be annoying and make you feel bad for no reason.

People can't live more than a hundred years. If you live a miserable life with a sad face every day, isn't it a waste of your identity as a guest?
Xie Shen was thinking to himself, Zheng Xundao walked in striding in with a book of Zhu Zi annotated.

Xie Pi winked at him, Xie Shen came back from his fugue and looked at Zheng Xundao
Facts have proved that what boring people say is also boring.Xie Shen listened to Zheng Xunjiao's lectures on the scriptures for nearly an hour, and felt his head swell.After finally getting out of class, Xie Shen immediately jumped up from his seat and strode towards the outside of Minglun Hall.

Walking outside the hall, looking at the dozens of ginkgo trees with bare branches and a field of withered yellow leaves in the courtyard, Xie Shen sighed.

He has never felt that taking a big breath is a very refreshing thing, and it is true that there is no harm without comparison.

Xie Shen is a person who pays great attention to efficiency. In his opinion, the teaching mode taught by Zheng Xun is too rigid and rigid, which is very unfavorable for the county students to master the knowledge.To put it in a utilitarian way, Zheng's teaching model will not produce results.

Although Yuyao is a strong county in the imperial examination, no matter how strong it is, it is impossible to get dozens of candidates in the Yike Township Examination.Although Xie Shen has won three small prizes in a row, he also knows that in terms of hard power, he is only at the level of the top ten in the county school.

The position of more than a dozen is very embarrassing. Maybe they can make the list, or they may not.

It is not a problem to get the qualification of the provincial examination, but what about after that?What if the township examination fails?

No wonder Zheng Xundao is still just a juren at such an age. There must be something wrong with his study method back then!

In order for Zheng Xundao not to continue misleading his children, Xie Shen decided to give advice to Kong Jiaoyu, at least not to allow Zheng Xundao to continue teaching so capriciously.

Poverty brings about change, and now we really have to change.
But Xie Shen was thinking to himself when someone behind him patted him on the shoulder.

The young man subconsciously jumped a few steps forward, turned around to look, only to find that it was Wang Shouwen.

"Brother Shouwen, next time, can you stop appearing from behind all the time, it really scared me to death."

Xie Shenchang let out a breath and shook his head helplessly.

"Director Zheng is looking for you, but I brought the message with you, it's up to you to go or not."

Wang Shouwen shrugged and said casually.

Teacher Zheng looking for himself?

Xie Shen took a deep breath and couldn't help becoming vigilant.It can't be seen that this Zheng Xundao is still a fine person, he just wanted to "move" Zheng Xundao, and this one opened his mouth first to talk to him, what a coincidence.

Thinking so in his heart, Xie Shen asked: "I think this must be a bad thing."

"It doesn't matter if it's a good thing or not, but Brother Shenxian, you must go. If you don't go, you'll be afraid of him, and you won't be able to make up for your momentum."

Xie Shen nodded approvingly, and sighed: "Then go. Even if he is really dissatisfied with me, he can't do too much, right?"
