In the Imperial Treasure Pavilion, a ray of warm sunshine shines on the students, looking so harmonious.

They all sat cross-legged on the cushions and listened attentively to the great sage's lectures.

They were all very quiet, even their breathing was very light, and everyone showed their most perfect appearance.

The great sage Yuan Zhen sat high on the seat at the head, holding a volume in his hands. When he looked carefully, it was the "Book of Rites", which is recognized as the most orthodox classic book in the world.

For young scholars who value their career, who doesn't know it by heart?

For a family that values ​​family tradition, which family does not strictly require the words and deeds of its children according to its records.

The great sage Yuan Zhen is the most famous celebrity in the world, and his explanation of this book is naturally more profound, which has benefited the students in the audience a lot.

Students are like sponges that are short of water, desert land, drought-stricken crops... greedily sucking the moisture of knowledge.

Seeing this scene, even Xu Hui, who is usually the most pretentious, came in quietly and sat at the back, seizing this rare opportunity to calm down and listen to the lecture.

Lan Xin didn't wear any shoes and her steps were lighter. She sat quietly in the corner and listened attentively to the lecture.

Then Rong Wan, who was wearing a Confucian shirt, also stepped lightly and sat down next to Lan Xin, sitting upright.

Lan Xin glanced at her and saw that she looked dignified and dignified, and felt a little ashamed that she was not as good as others in terms of etiquette.

So I followed her example, straightened my body, and tried to look indifferent.

Rong Wan was very amused when she saw the black dirt on the little girl's white feet, and she imitated her own sitting posture generously, and even imitated it in a decent manner.

Lan Xin didn't care if someone caught her, but listened more seriously.

I have missed too much, so I should seize every opportunity to learn and work harder.

"The reason why people are human is etiquette..." The female voice on the stage was slow and powerful, explaining clearly and thoroughly, and her reasoning was well-founded and convincing.

Listening to such a charming explanation, Lan Xin suddenly felt enlightened. She understood most of the things she didn't understand before.

When she was in the palace, the cultural teacher was also very knowledgeable, but she focused more on teaching reading and memorizing books, and her explanations were far less easy to accept than the great sage's explanations.

No wonder people often say that a good teacher is the most valuable asset in life.

After about an hour, the Great Sage finally stopped and officially announced: "This ends today's sermon. I will ask a few questions. Those who answer well will be accepted as registered disciples as usual."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw happy expressions on the students' faces, and they all looked expectantly at the great sage who was sitting here.

Lan Xin had mixed feelings when she saw this scene. The Great Sage Master was full of talents all over the world, and her disciples included secluded masters, high-ranking officials in the court, and even royalty.

It is not impossible to become a master and become a successful person in one step.

Some people want to see the carp leap over the dragon's gate. This is an excellent opportunity. But they never know that the quota for this apprenticeship selection ceremony has already been decided.

Lan Xin also deeply felt the superiority brought by her family. Without her status as a noble daughter of the royal family, and without the respect of her mother, the king, and her father, she would definitely not have received this good opportunity.

"The first question is," the great sage paused, looked at everyone's nervous and expectant eyes, and said, "How should we define a master of literature?"

A frail scholar raised her right hand confidently, and the great sage nodded. She quickly stood up, but because she had been sitting for too long, she was a little unsteady.

Seeing that he had lost face, the scholar suddenly became nervous and stammered: "Great Master, students think that Wen Zhi..., everyone should be quick in thinking and well-spoken."

After hearing this, Yuan Zhen nodded with satisfaction and motioned for her to sit down. After the scholar sat down, he was a little nervous and a little proud of his answer.

Xu Hui glanced at the scholar with disdain, stood up, cupped her hands and said, "Great sage, I believe that a great scholar should have peaches and plums all over the world."

This sentence is very clever. It seems to be praising the great sage, but it is suitable for this problem.

Seeing that Xu Hui answered the question, Rong Wan stood up not to be outdone. He bowed politely and said confidently: "Great sage, students think that a great scholar should serve the country and the people.

Since ancient times, there have been many literati and poets who have eulogized virtues, chanted the wind and moon, and wandered around the mountains and rivers, but my disciples believe that the most important thing for a literati is to use their wisdom to serve the country and benefit the people."

"Okay, okay, well said. Prime Minister Rong is really good at teaching his daughter." The great sage praised him repeatedly, and Rong Wan sat down modestly.

Xu Hui, who was standing by, saw that she was stealing the show, and a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes.

After hearing Rong Wan's answer, everyone else felt ashamed.

Even Lan Xin couldn't help but admire him. This Young Master Rong had the same ideas as himself. The idea of ​​serving the country and the people by great writers in the past was put forward by a literary master.

This aristocratic girl who seems to have not yet reached adulthood actually answered the question "Serve the country and the people", which shows that she has outstanding literary talent and foresight.

When the great sage looked at Rong Wan, he also saw Lan Xin in the corner. His expression was startled but he quickly recovered.

This subtle change was actually noticed by Rong Wan, and she secretly doubted the identity of this strange girl.

The great sage smiled again and said to everyone: "I will ask the second question later, everyone comes with me."

After saying this, the great sage came to the backyard, and everyone followed closely behind him without knowing why.

Arriving at a wasteland, the Great Sage pointed to the overgrown wasteland and asked, "The second question is, how can we clean up all the weeds in this wasteland?"

Everyone was surprised when they heard this question and started talking about it.

Xu Hui said directly: "Great Sage, we are here to study, not to weed. If you ask me, I will hire a few people outside to help you weed the grass with hoes.

"

When everyone heard this, they all laughed easily. Rong Wan and several relatively calm scholars looked at each other and began to think deeply.

After a while, a young scholar wearing brocade replied: "Great Master, students will take a hoe to remove the grass by the roots, even if it takes more time. After all, if the weeds are not removed by the roots, they will soon grow again.

from."

Rong Wan also said: "Great Master, my students also agree with Sister Lin's point of view. If you want to get rid of the weeds quickly, you can set a fire to burn the weeds clean, and then use a hoe to remove the roots to prevent them from regrowing."

After saying this, Rong Wan smiled slightly at the scholar surnamed Lin. The scholar also smiled. It seemed that the two of them knew each other.

When the great sage heard this answer, he also expressed satisfaction and said: "Lin Ying's answer is good, Rong Wan's answer is even better. Does anyone have any other better methods?"

The great sage looked around, as if expecting something.

Lan Xin clenched her fists and thought to herself: If she doesn't show some strength, I'm afraid she will attract rumors even if she is accepted as a disciple by her teacher.
