Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1267 Genius

  Fang Xiaofan nodded simply: "I want to!"

  She answered very simply.

   Very much like the Fang family, the Fang family always talk after doing it, and never compare blindly.

  For example, Fang Jifan always slaps or kicks someone first before cursing, instead of cursing for a few sticks of incense before giving up.

  Fang Jifan was very pleased: "Why?"

  Fang Xiaofan thought for a while: "The people who can count in the palace are too bad. I want to know, outside this palace, are there mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people?"

   Ambitious.

  Fang Jifan couldn't help raising his thumbs up: "Brother, yes, you can go for the exam. But..."

  Fang Jifan hesitated again. Would it be embarrassing if he failed the exam?

   "But what, brother, are you looking down on me?"

Fang Jifan shook his head: "Don't dare, dare not. What I mean is, before the exam, you have to practice. Why don't you do this? After you go back, I'll get you some questions. Don't do anything, just do the questions. "

  Although Fang Jifan doesn't know much about mathematics, it doesn't prevent him from knowing how to take the exam.

   "Oh." Fang Xiaofan nodded.

  Fang Jifan let out a sigh of relief, Xiaofan's temper is not small, this is like me again.

   Sitting idle for a while.

   On the other side, a **** came calling.

  Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan went over, but saw that the Zhang brothers had stopped crying, their eyes were gloomy, like a woman who had just lost her virginity, her eyes were empty.

  Fang Jifan felt a little pain in his heart, his mother-in-law was a little cruel.

Empress Zhang smiled: "The money matter is finally done. Very good. The Women's Federation now wants people and money. If you don't think about it, it won't happen. Ji Fan, you are outside the court. You have to follow me to help you."

  Fang Jifan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I understand, I will definitely do my best."

  Queen Zhang was in a great mood: "It's so good."

  Fang Jifan said: "There is one more thing, Xiaofan wants to participate in the math competition, empress... I think this is a great opportunity."

   "Opportunity, what opportunity?"

   "Women don't give way to men." Fang Jifan looked at Queen Zhang with a smile.

  Queen Zhang understood immediately.

  The main program of the Women's Federation is nothing more than two.

   One is for the humiliated women to call the shots.

  The second is to encourage women to be self-improvement.

  If it is not proved that women are not necessarily weaker than men, then how can people change people's long-standing concepts.

Fang Jifan said: "My son has heard people say since he was a child that a woman's lack of talent is virtue. My son has already heard the cocoon. Those who say such things, my son will absolutely disagree. I haven't seen many women, but I have seen the empress and Princess Taikang. The empress and her highness, not to mention the beauty and wisdom, manage the family business, dignified and generous; in terms of this skill, there are a few men who can match it Go up, so I'm thinking..."

   Empress Zhang loves to hear these words.

  Empress Zhang said with a smile: "The only thing I'm worried about is... what if Xiao Fan doesn't do well in the exam?"

Fang Jifan vowed: "Madam, don't worry, none of the people from the Fang family are extremely smart. These days, I have tried my best to make up lessons for her. Tomorrow, I will send someone to take her home for a while. Teach her, don't worry about her failure."

  Empress Zhang laughed: "That's fine, I think she's really smart."

   Obviously, Empress Zhang also wanted to win the first battle of the Women's Federation.

  Therefore, take great care of it.

  She said: "Since that's the case, then it's settled. This palace will entrust you with this matter. If it is done, you will make great contributions to the Women's Federation."

  When Fang Jifan heard that he could do meritorious service for the sisters, his blood boiled immediately: "Obey."

  …

   Come out from Kunning Palace.

  The Zhang family brothers were downcast.

  Fang Jifan went up to greet them: "You two uncles, how are you?"

  Zhang Heling's face was blue and white, and he really couldn't arouse any interest. He talked to Fang Jifan and said reluctantly: "Mm, um, good."

  Zhang Yanling said from the side: "Xiao Fang, long time no see, why don't you come to the house and have a casual meal?"

  Fang Jifan: "..."

Zhang Heling is extremely: "Jifan is busy, don't always waste other people's time, people don't care about a meal, don't delay other people's major events, he is not like us, he has nothing to do all day long, Jifan, what do you think? ?”

  Fang Jifan also relaxed a lot, with a look of relief: "Yes, yes, uncle knows me."

   "Ah, stop talking, let's go." Zhang Heling hurriedly pulled Zhang Yanling and left.

  ...

  It was the next day.

  The Fang family sent chariots to the Meridian Gate to pick up Fang Xiaofan.

   In order to prepare for the exam, Fang Jifan was busy all night.

  When Fang Xiaofan arrived at home, Zhu Xiurong greeted him. His sister-in-law and sister-in-law are all acquaintances, and Xiaofan has been watched by Zhu Xiurong since he grew up, so he will not be unfamiliar.

  The two of them went in, and seeing Fang Jifan sorting out a thick pile of books and exam questions, Fang Jifan's eyes turned red.

  Zhu Xiurong couldn't help saying: "He didn't sleep all night, he went to Zangshu Pavilion overnight, and brought back a sack of this thing..."

Fang Jifan laughed loudly: "You don't understand, what is this, this is a treasure, these are our Xishan Academy, since the establishment of the School of Mathematics, the test questions over the years, I think, this competition, nine times out of ten, the questions are drawn They are all from here. Xiaofan is about to take an exam and wants to win glory for our Fang family. How can she be left behind? Falling behind. I suspect that someone laughed at our Fang family. Didn’t this just cause me to have a dispute with someone? It’s bad if you hit someone.”

  Fang Jifan said, shaking out the thick sack of papers and book questions: "Xiaofan, these days, you don't do anything, just do all these questions once, and when you are done, you will be a teacher."

  Zhang Xiurong was stunned.

   This competition.

  It is organized by the cabinet, co-organized by the Ministry of Household Affairs, Xishan Academy and Baoding Chief Envoy.

  The specifications are still very high.

  The purpose is to select talents.

  The cabinet and various institutions have negotiated, and those who rank among the best will not only be given a large bonus, but also a bachelor's title, and even the cabinet will award it to Zhongshu Sheren.

The names and positions of Zhongshusheren in different dynasties are different. In the Southern Dynasty, they were in charge of making imperial edicts, edicts, announcing edicts, and accepting memorials, etc.; in the Sui Dynasty, they were in charge of edicts; ; In the Song Dynasty, he participated in the decision-making of government orders and was in charge of all affairs of Zhongshu Province.

   It can be said that in the previous dynasty, this thing was very advanced, and it was equivalent to the power of the prime minister.

   Even, its authority reached its peak in the Tang and Song Dynasties, because Zhongshu Sheng was also called Ziwei Province, and Zhongshu Sheren was also called "Ziwei Sheren" in Tang and Song Dynasties, and was in charge of all affairs of Zhongshu Sheng.

  However, in Daming, there was no Zhongshu Ministry, so it was not called Ziwei Sheren.

  In the Ming Dynasty, Zhongshu Sheren, because of the abolition of Zhongshu Province, naturally no longer had such an official position.

However, out of habit, this cabinet is still called the Zaifu institution. The cabinet scholars work in the cabinet and need someone to assist them. The people who wrote it worked in the cabinet, and these people were called Zhongshu Sheren.

   This thing, now in later generations, has a name called a temporary worker.

   But although this temporary worker is not an official position specially conferred by the imperial court, he is coordinating the affairs of the cabinet. This power is not small.

  In the cabinet, there are no grades or ranks in Zhongshu Sheren. When they leave the cabinet, even if they are ministers and ministers, they have to say hello.

  The cabinet bestowed the top-ranked people as Zhongshu Sheren, naturally hoping to select some outstanding people to assist Liu Jian and others in their official duties. It can also be seen that the cabinet attaches great importance to outstanding mathematics talents.

  This exam, almost everyone who has studied mathematics, attaches great importance to it. After all, this is an opportunity to enter the cabinet and meet the cabinet masters at any time. Once it ranks at the top of the list, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has soared into the sky. The benefits are not under the title of the gold list.

  As a result, many people are sharpening their swords. According to the rules, personnel from the Statistics Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Xishan School of Computing, and Baoding Chief Political Commissioner can directly participate in the exam.

  As for the others, they need to go through layers of selection before they are eligible for the exam.

   Therefore, the pressure of this exam is very high.

   Zhu Xiurong frowned when he saw the piles of test questions: "Xiaofan is a woman, you, as a brother, should teach her virtues, but how do you teach them?"

Fang Jifan stared wide-eyed: "Your Highness, the sky has changed, you don't know it... well, you will know when you enter the palace, it's late, Xiaofan, don't waste your time, come, come, I will accompany you question."

  Fang Xiaofan said with a smile: "Okay."

  The two brothers and sisters gathered around the table, Fang Jifan took the paper and said, "I don't understand, you..."

  He wanted to say, don't understand, you come to ask me, think about it carefully, it seems that he...

   "I don't understand, you tell brother, brother, I will sort out your doubts for you and ask around for you."

"Oh."

  Fang Xiaofan quickly got into the mood, picked up the test paper, held the charcoal pencil, and started to work on the questions with complete obsession.

  Seeing this, Zhu Xiurong couldn't help asking: "Xiaofan, are you hungry?"

  Fang Xiaofan didn't answer her.

  Zhu Xiurong sighed, and hurriedly ordered someone to prepare some pastries and tea, and put them on Fang Xiaofan's side.

Fang Jifan was on the side, bored, seeing that Fang Jifan didn't eat, he simply ate by himself, while eating, while looking down at the test paper, he felt in his heart, Mathematics is profound and profound, I fear that Fang Jifan will not be able to learn it in this life, but It doesn't matter, I still have a sister, she will fulfill our regret of Fang Jifan.

  Any learning is inseparable from people's interest.

  If a person is not interested, you catch her how to learn, she will also go in the left ear and out the right ear.

   But if Fang Xiaofan is interested, it will be a disaster. Fang Xiaofan sat for two full hours without any movement. When she looked up, she was hungry: "Brother, I'm hungry."

  Then, she looked at the empty plates by the table and the tea that had already been drunk.

  Fang Jifan touched his stomach: "You say that, I realize I'm hungry again."
