Chapter 312 Questioning
Chapter 312 Questioning
Ji Qingqing's expression slightly restrained, and a shy smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
"Ji Yuntang was able to successfully register this time, thanks to the help of my brother the Crown Prince. After the Canglang Poetry Talk is over, I will go to his house in person to thank him."
Whenever Ji Qingqing thought of Luo Jingshen, her heart was filled with happiness.
Last time, Luo Jingshen broke his leg and recuperated in the mansion for more than half a month.
Ji Qingqing went to visit him, bringing with her homemade ginseng chicken soup.
It is also because of this reason that the relationship between Ji Qingqing and Luo Jingshen has become much closer.
This made her feel even more that Luo Jingshen had her in his heart.
This was exactly the case when Ji Qingqing mentioned it unintentionally in front of Luo Jingshen.
"It would be great if my sister could also attend the Canglang Poetry Talk!"
"It's a pity that women are not allowed to sign up for the poetry competition."
Luo Jingshen immediately said: "I will arrange this matter."
He also hated Ji Yuntang to the core and wished she would be disgraced and in trouble.
Luo Jingshen had gone to the Duke Rong's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion many times before, trying to win over Xie Jinrong and Hua Jing'an, but was fooled by these two old foxes with just a few words!
Now that Ji Yuntang has climbed up to the Duke of Rong's Mansion and rescued Prime Minister Hua's daughter and grandson, it is equivalent to bringing two powerful helpers to Luo Junhe.
Even though Luo Jingshen was the crown prince, he began to feel nervous and uneasy.
He felt from the bottom of his heart that all this was Ji Yuntang's fault.
Without her interference, the situation would still be bright and in his favor.
But now, many high-ranking and powerful people are invisibly leaning towards the Night King's Palace.
If Luo Junhe was not still paralyzed in bed and unable to move, he would have already found a way to kill Ji Yuntang to prevent future troubles!
It’s a pity that the Queen and Luo Qingge have always protected Ji Yuntang, so every time he wanted to take action, he couldn’t help but retreat.
His biggest backers now are the Queen and the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
He was afraid that if the people he sent out failed to kill Ji Yuntang in one go, the Queen would break up with him.
Although the other party was his biological mother, Luo Jingshen always felt that there was a gap between him and the queen.
If she really cared about herself and had her best interests at heart, she would have won Ji Yuntang over and used him!
But the queen did not do so. Instead, she treated Ji Yuntang as her own daughter.
Luo Jingshen was very unhappy. He felt that the Queen and Luo Qingge were two traitors.
They did not protect him like Concubine Chu protected Luo Feizhou. Instead, they always told him some general principles on how to behave and have the world in mind.
This made Luo Jingshen very impatient.
Since ancient times, whoever sits on the throne is not cruel, ruthless and selfish?
If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. What's wrong with him being a little selfish?
If he sits on the throne, the Queen and Luo Qingge will also benefit from it, right?
Thinking of this, a sinister look appeared in Luo Jingshen's eyes.
As one of the judges of today's Canglang Poetry Talk, he naturally also attended!
Now that most of the incense had burned out, Luo Jingshen curled his lips, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
He wanted to defeat Ji Yuntang step by step.
He wanted to let the Queen and Luo Qingge know what kind of waste the person they valued was.
This way, they will be able to focus their attention and help him wholeheartedly in the future!
When Ji Yuntang was doing the questions, she felt several eyes were on her.
One of them was as gentle as spring, while the others were full of malice, as if they wanted to stare a hole through her.
In other words, if looks could kill, she would have been killed countless times already!
Ji Yuntang ignored her and finished answering the questions in less than a cup of tea!
Now I'm sitting here dozing off out of boredom.
Ji Zihang looked at Ji Yuntang like this, with undisguised disgust in his eyes.
She was actually dozing off during such an important and solemn competition?
Is it that I can’t do it, or that I didn’t understand the question at all?
That’s right, with Ji Yuntang’s limited knowledge, does she know who Qin Chuan is?
I'm afraid you've never even heard of it?
I really don't know why she came up to humiliate herself?
Compared to Ji Zihang’s disdain, Ji Qingqing felt that this time she was safe!
It was because she didn't even see Ji Yuntang answering the questions.
Everyone else was concentrating on solving problems, but she was the only one dozing off with her chin on her hand.
If this isn't something that can't be done, then what is?
Whenever Ji Qingqing thought about the fact that Ji Yuntang got zero on his answer sheet, she became extremely excited.
She made a fortune by spending one tael of silver to save Ji Yuntang from embarrassment in such an occasion!
She just didn't believe that after today, there would still be princes and nobles willing to make friends with Ji Yuntang.
The incense burned out slowly until the last bit of ash fell into the incense burner, and the voice of the invigilator suddenly rang out.
"Time is up, all candidates stop answering questions and start submitting answer sheets."
As soon as he finished speaking, a row of men in green flying fish uniforms came up to collect the scrolls.
After handing in the answer sheet, Jiang Yunheng turned to look at Ji Yuntang and asked her implicitly.
"Princess Ye, did you figure out the answer just now?"
Ji Yuntang nodded, "I figured it out, thirty-one million and five hundred thousand."
Jiang Yunheng's eyes lit up, "Me too."
"I used the abacus that the teacher taught me, and it took me three calculations to get the same answer as you. Princess, how did you figure it out so quickly?"
Ji Yuntang smiled mysteriously, "The hermit has his own ingenious plan."
Calculations in this dynasty were mainly done on abacus.
Mental abacus is to memorize the abacus calculations and formulas in the mind, and calculate the answer to the question based on the rules.
Ji Yuntang felt that this method was too troublesome. How could it be as useful as modern multiplication formulas?
Now that she knows the multiplication table, this kind of arithmetic is no big deal in her eyes.
In the referee's seat, Luo Jingshen was holding Ji Yuntang's test paper with full marks, his eyes widened!
Ten judges will take turns to score the students' test papers and finally calculate the average score.
When it was his turn, Ji Yuntang's test paper was already filled with five bright red 100s.
Luo Jingshen was shocked and asked: "Director Cheng, was Ji Yuntang's test paper graded wrong?"
Cheng Rushan stopped writing and looked up from the test paper.
"I wonder why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this?"
Luo Jingshen pointed at the vertical form on Ji Yuntang's answer sheet, as well as the multiplication and division symbols and said:
"I have never seen this, this symbol, and this algorithm before."
"How can you give her full marks for something you haven't seen before? This is too unfair to the other candidates!"
Cheng Rushan frowned slightly, "Your Highness, although I have taught at the Imperial Academy for twenty years, I still believe that Chinese arithmetic is extensive and profound, and its problem-solving ideas cannot be limited to abacus mental arithmetic."
"Although I have never seen Miss Ji's calculation method, after discussing it with Master Mei, we both agree that her method is very ingenious."
