Zhenguan Wenzong System

Chapter 231

It was February, and the grass was growing and warblers were flying.The warm sun shines through the window sills, playing with the eyes of the scholars with the spots of light.

At noon, Luo Yan, who had been sitting at the table for a long time, put down the books in hand, stretched himself, and prepared to go out for something to eat.

These days, because the matter of looking for a scholar of mathematics has gradually subsided, there is nothing to do every day.Since there was no progress in mathematics, Luo Yan planned to rest for a while, to see if there was a chance to do something with Lu Shu.Anyway, I have also served as a county magistrate, and it is well known that he used various means to engage a lot of wealthy landowners.I think Lai Shu will handle this matter better.

Thinking of this, Luo Yan also felt a little regretful, why was he so stupid back then, he was what he thought.

Just as he was about to open the door to go out, he saw a student running over out of breath.

Normally, students would not come to this place where the masters stayed.First of all, the masters basically spend most of their time in the school every day, and there is really nothing to do when they come here.Seeing the students running towards his room right now, Luo Yan knew there was something urgent.

Pushing open the door, he said to the student: "Don't panic, take a break if you have something to do." Everyone said that this matter is nothing more than a catastrophe, and the only crime is to commit suicide.Although he knew there must be something special, Luo Yan still signaled the students to take their time.

After the student took a breath, he hurriedly said to Luo Yan: "Dr. Luo, you should go to the door and have a look. Someone has come to provoke trouble."

These words made Luo Yan amused.Who is so courageous, dare to come to the state to study and provoke troubles, and is not afraid of being scolded by scholars all over the world.

But soon Luo Yan couldn't laugh anymore. "Someone said that you are too arrogant, that it's okay to be a fool in the poetry world, but you dare to reach out to mathematics. He is here to suppress your arrogant arrogance." The mouth that was about to grin suddenly turned into a wry smile. I didn't expect it to be so It's easy to come one, but it's still looking for trouble.It's hard for Luo Yan to say anything at the moment, since the visitor named him and talked about the matter of mathematics, he made the relationship between Zhou Xue and himself very clear.

Just as he was about to say something, he saw another scholar rushing towards him.Arriving in front of Luo Yan, he said anxiously and angrily: "Dr. Luo, go and have a look, there are more and more people around, many people not only insulted you, but also insulted the state school. .Hey, what kind of thing is this?" This made Luo Yan laugh angrily.These people's ability to vent their anger is getting better and better, and they don't even let the state school go.

"In that case, let's go out and meet this unknown expert." Luo Yan nodded to the two students, and then walked towards the door first.

When he was about ten meters away from the gate, Luo Yan could clearly hear the noisy voices outside the gate.

"This Luo Yan has only studied mathematics for a few days, and he claims to have gained a lot. I think it's just that he doesn't have enough reputation in the poetry circle. He wants to gain some fame in mathematics by suppressing that idiot Pang Wenlin. Zhang Not talented, I studied arithmetic since I was a child, although my talent is not good, so far I have not made much achievements. However, I absolutely cannot allow anyone to fish in troubled waters in my favorite field."

Although these words hit Luo Yan's purpose, if he said that Luo Yan was fishing in troubled waters, he couldn't bear it.

Luo Yan was about to open his mouth to refute, when he heard the crowd around the audience chorus: "Zhang Sheng is very right. If I wait, with that kind of talent and learning, I must study hard to make myself better. How can it be like Luo Yan?" Yan, what kind of poetry innovation is being done today, and tomorrow is doing math. Just like the farmer, who sells firewood in the market today, and hunts wolves in the mountains in the Ming Dynasty, so he doesn’t do a little bit of work.”

"Fortunately, I thought he was good at Confucian classics a while ago. Now it seems that I am blind. Fortunately, I haven't listened to his lectures for several days. Presumably after today, the lectures will not be able to be held."

"Brother Tai really has the foresight. The younger brother also listened to some a few days ago. But it is obviously not as good as before. It must be that Si Xin used it for other purposes, so that he lost the fineness of the day."

These few words were like that blunt knife, cutting in Luo Yan's heart.Sure enough, the world is so cold, there are very few people who can really look after themselves all the time.And it's fine if you don't like yourself, but it's really embarrassing to add insult to injury like this.

At this moment, there were many students standing inside the state school looking outside, maybe the situation outside was a bit too exciting, even Luo Yan came, but they didn't notice it.Signaling the two students to be quiet, Luo Yan stood behind a group of students, quietly listening to the discussions of those who came and the surrounding scholars.

What Luo Yan did was a bit unpopular, so at this moment, even the students of the state school, no one spoke for Luo Yan.It's just because Luo Yan is their teacher, he can't say bad things, that's all.On the contrary, those sarcastic voices outside the door came one after another, which made Luo Yan feel a little angry.If I don't give a damn about this matter, then I don't need to be named Luo anymore.

"Wait and get out of the way." Although Luo Yan's voice was low and low, he exhausted all his strength.

So although the scholar in front didn't realize who said it because of his haste, he still did it.Soon Luo Yan gave way to a path wide enough for two people, and only then did Zhu Sheng turn his head to look.When it was discovered that Luo Yan had arrived, the students who had been talking in a low voice suddenly fell silent.The quietness here further sets off the noise outside the door.The voices making irresponsible remarks to Luo Yan also became clearer.

Everyone originally thought that Luo Yan had an angry face, but they didn't expect to see a calm face at this moment.It's just that those who are familiar with Luo Yan know that when someone came to provoke him because of the innovation of poetry style, Luo Yan had such an expression.As a result, the visitor was tortured to the point of fainting.

Going out the door, Luo Yan didn't speak immediately, but slowly looked around the crowd, as if he wanted to imprint the appearance of these people in his heart.And Luo Yan's opinion made the crowd of onlookers who were still chattering quiet down.

Seeing himself appearing and making the atmosphere so quiet, Luo Yan suddenly smiled, and then looked at the Lord.

The visitor was about the same age as Luo Yan.He looks thinner, but he can be considered handsome.Wearing a silk shirt, it shows that this person's family background is not simple.At this moment, he was standing in front of Luo Yan with his hands behind his back.When Luo Yan looked at him, he also looked at Luo Yan with wide eyes.

"You are Luo Yan?" The man asked a little tentatively.

"No, it's Luo Yan who fishes in troubled waters that you just mentioned. May I ask who is your Excellency?" If you want to fight, you still need to know the name of the other party.Since he dared to provoke himself in such a high-profile way, he was not a small person after all.

"It's Qinghe Zhangtong." Slightly arrogant, this person didn't even have the courtesy to bow his hands, and he said with his hands behind his back as before: "I heard that you are going to come here to count and walk together, Zhang can't bear to count There is one more person in the academic world who is trying to catch fame, and I am here to advise you to stop."

This statement was quite harsh, but it also won the applause of many onlookers.At this moment, people don't care what official you, Luo Yan, are, and whoever is watching the excitement thinks it's a big deal.

Luo Yan didn't feel much about the latter sentence, but just pondered over the identity of the visitor in his mind.Qinghe Zhangtong, I thought it was Qinghe Cuitong.Don't think that if you are in Qinghe, you are awesome.Luo Yan was joking in his heart, when suddenly something popped into his mind.Wait, since this person knows that he has some friendship with Cui, why can he still mention Qinghe?Could it be?

"Oh. So it's Zhang Qiu Jiangong's descendant. I don't know who it is. He speaks so loudly that he dares to come and provoke you." Luo Yan suddenly realized, so he said something to the young man.

Hearing that Luo Yan recognized his own origin, Zhang Tong also said with a little complacency: "That's right, thanks to the fact that you still know your family ancestor."

It's no wonder that this pass is so satisfying.Zhang Qiujian was a well-known mathematician in the Northern Wei Dynasty. He proposed the famous "Hundred Chicken Problem". He was also the first person in the world to propose a ternary linear indeterminate equation and a solution.In the field of mathematics, the Qinghe Zhang family is also well-known as a family of mathematics.Ordinary disciples of the Zhang family are not allowed to go out in the capacity of Shusu. Since Zhang Tong can blatantly provoke Luo Yan, he must be the leader of the younger generation of the Zhang family.

"Luo claims to have read a lot of books. I have also read Zhang Gong's posthumous manuscripts in detail, so I am very familiar with them. However, to be honest, even if your Excellency came to the door, Luo would not admit defeat. After all these calculations, Luo believes that he is not defeated by others. If you don’t believe me, just come and have a try.”

Speaking of this competition, many people's eyes began to glow.

What Luo Yan is famous for in the world used to be his poems and essays, but now it is also counted as competitions.

It can be considered ferocious, and anyone who has tried to compete with Luo Yan has ended in failure in the end.Some time ago, you didn't have the chance to watch the competition in Chang'an, but now you can actually watch it here.Although this arithmetic competition is far less lively than the poetry competition because of its partiality and fewer people who understand it.But who would think it's too much fun?

Zhang Tongzheng had this intention. Hearing what Luo Yan said at this moment, he suddenly laughed: "I know you. Don't think that you won that Pang Wenlin earlier, so you are so arrogant, thinking that you can scare me. After all, this calculation is not poetry, and the result It can only be constant. If you lose at that time, obediently give me an apology and apologize to me who is a math student. Don't treat me as a child who can only do calculations. Math requires brains."

Zhang Tong's words naturally agreed to the competition.Seeing that he agreed, Luo Yan also breathed a sigh of relief.I'm just afraid that you will speak empty words and scold me because of your status as an aristocratic family.Since you delivered it yourself, don't blame me for treating you as my stepping stone to the world of mathematics.

Thinking of this, Luo Yan called the students of the state school to bring the desk.On the other hand, he and Zhang Tong discussed the method of the competition in public.
