Chapter 10 Great Compassion Mantra(1/2)

Erdai is a high-level official who has entered the political arena with powerful military power. He has been amazing in his ability to build instruments and talents before entering the political arena. Whether he is the only student who passed the imperial examination, the undisputed top scholar in the spring exam, or he is the only one who tried the world, he beat the seven surnames to the point of failure in two rounds and surrendered.

Therefore, when he heard Wang Hua’s teaching, even the other bachelors rushed over to listen.

But it disappoints them, but it makes them even more weird.

Because Wang Hua looked at these little kids, he didn't have the heart to care about the prince or grandfather's family. Although he is now just a fifth-rank idle minister. But he was the one whom Wu Zetian could have known since a few years ago. Even if he was alone, many people were afraid of him. Not to mention that these little kids, even if their parents came, they had to respect Wang Hua, but it might be superficial respect.

Wang Hua said: "I will teach you arithmetic first."

But he looked at the wall. This was a habit he developed in school for several years. It felt bad. Without a blackboard, chalk and chalk rubbing, this was a big problem in class. As for the teaching quality and speed, it was reduced by half.

These three things are easy to make, but today they can't catch up.

He said, "First of all, I have a question. Listen, from one to two, then three, and all the way to one thousand. I don't ask for the answer. Instead, I'll use what method can you use to calculate the answer accurately before I count ten times.

There is no saying every second now. Just use ten sounds, it takes about ten seconds.

This is derived from a story that was transformed when a German mathematician Gauss was a child. It was just that Wang Hua expanded the numbers to one thousand.

He did this with purpose. Compared with Western culture, China is more perceptual and conceptualized, and the West is more rational and meticulous. For example, there are many formulas in Western mathematics, while Chinese arithmetic has existed very early. But it is just a result, such as Pythagorean law, which is to hook three, four, and five, without labeling how it comes from, nor is it formulating. Of course, it cannot be said that the advantages and disadvantages of that kind of culture are, but the latter is easier to popularize knowledge.

Wang Hua did this by first making a name for himself, leaving a deep impression on them, and then teaching them, so that the curtain would be accepted by them.

After all, next, it is possible that Wang Hua will subvert more of their ideas.

When the question came out, not only a group of little kids were stunned, but also a group of bachelors were stunned. This calculation was not difficult, just calculate it slowly. But if you want to get the answer within ten tones, it seems impossible.

Wang Hua said: "I will teach you my class today. I will bring you something good tomorrow."

After saying that, he left.

He also had to meet Wu Zetian. Leave a group of people to discuss. Wang Hua must be aimless, but this question is too weird. Please don't question it, because there is no formula, so this math question is not difficult in the Tang Dynasty.

When we arrived at Shangyang Palace, we walked along the way, with rockery, small bridges, corridors, and summer trees, and the environment was very beautiful and peaceful.

Wang Hua looked at it and it was much better than he thought. However, this kind of environment is very suitable for him, and it may not be known to Lao Wu. For example, Lao Wu often had palace banquets and poetry banquets. The more she became in her old age, the more she liked the lively atmosphere. It may not be a good thing.

But Wu Zetian, like a tiger, not only Li Xian, but also various ministers dare not release her casually, as she can eat people.

Now that you have this treatment, it’s already considered good.

When he came to the Xianju Hall, Wu Zetian was sitting on the Hu bed. He leaned against an old Zhu tree, squinted his eyes and looked ahead, but he didn't know what she was looking at. But he looked desolate. For example, his head of silver hair was already gray, but now, there were palace maids who combed her, but they lost their original luster and became a little haggard.

Under the cool early summer afternoon breeze, it is like a small flower that is about to fade in the wind.

This is Lao Wu. It turns out that Lao Wu, who made him feel very afraid and spoke very carefully, felt sad in Wang Hua's heart.

He strides over and kneels down to see him.

Someone had already informed Wu Zetian and saw Wang Hua.

She stood up, and Wang Hua actually noticed that when she stood up, her body was trembling. She was obviously very surprised, but it made Wang Hua feel infinitely desolate.

But she was only excited for a moment, and instantly she returned to normal and asked, "Wang Qing, is the injury healed?"

"It's much better, thank your Majesty for your concern."

"No need to call him Your Majesty, the Ai family is just an ordinary old woman in her twilight years."

Wang Hua said, "Your Majesty, you will always be Your Majesty in my heart, and you will not be changed for ten thousand years."

Lao Wu breathed a sigh of relief and said silently: "In this life, there are only two ministers who are most proud of, one is your mentor, and the other is you. This makes the Ai family feel a little relieved."

"Your Majesty, no, Your Majesty has appointed countless useful ministers, not only humble ministers, but also many. For example, Zhang Jiazhen, Qu Zhen and others. They will play an important role in continuing to be strong in the court in the future. They are not the most loyal ministers, and there are many more loyal ministers than you, but they do not act like your ministers, without regard for the consequences."

Wu Zetian finally laughed. But she knew that this was what Wang Hua said to her. Maybe there would be ministers who were loyal to her, but there would be no second minister who sent troops to rescue her despite the danger of her life. Moreover, because Wang Hua's troops sent out Li Zhan, she not only solved her hatred. The guards of Shangyang Palace and the eunuchs and palace maids did not dare to neglect her.

The most important thing is that she also heard about Wang Hua's painting advice, which made her unscrupulous son better her attitude towards herself.

Wang Hua said again: "Your Majesty, how are you doing now?"

"It's okay, let's get along." Lao Wu didn't know what he said. Obviously, he was talking about the opposite.

But Wang Hua had no choice but to do anything. If this mutiny succeeded, he could still take the opportunity and not let her return to the throne. He might be a real emperor. But it is useless to say this now.

He thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, when I was a child, I stayed in Qingshan Valley in Gong County. There was a river in front of the gate, so I often wondered what kind of scenery there would be on the other side of the river."

He was a monster when he was a child and had no such idea at all, but most people would have such ideas in childhood. He used this topic as an extension.

"Later, I grew up a little, and when I went to the other side of the river, I felt the same. Then my family became poor. I read some books and learned some knowledge, and wanted to make my family live a little better, so I went to Luoyang. I was very confused at that time, and I only had a dozen taels of silver taro given to me by my mentor. I was very young and was very nervous about the prospects for Luoyang."

There is a sense of panic. Although he has been through the Tang Dynasty, he stayed in the green hills and had not traveled far away. It means he was in a completely closed environment and was very unfamiliar with the Tang Dynasty. But he was never very frightened. However, if he had not had decades of experience, a young man would indeed have such thoughts. This is still an introduction to the following words.

Lao Wu smiled after hearing this.

She can't see Wang Hua's growth in the future, but it can be said that he is a rare genius since ancient times.

A young man dared to go to Luoyang alone to make a living, and he dared to kill and fight back against the shops of Zheng and Wang.

"But I also found that it was just that, and I could do whatever I should do. Then it was Your Majesty."

Wu Zetian was shocked, why did he touch him?

"I heard that Your Majesty was heroic and powerful. When I saw Your Majesty, I was really afraid and worried. But after getting along, I found that Your Majesty was very reasonable and caring for me." In fact, when Wang Hua said this, he felt very happy. Lao Wu was so wise at the time, and he was trembling with her every time he spoke to her. But now?

"So later, I was just respectful to Your Majesty and was not afraid. Your Majesty also asked me to give advice to Your Majesty in Xijing?"

Lao Wu smiled again on his face, and Wang Hua said jing, that was the most qualified one.

"It is precisely because I am not afraid of Your Majesty and respect Your Majesty. I understand that Your Majesty has the courage to give advice. This envoy reminded me of Pei Ju. If Emperor Taizong was like Emperor Sui Chang, would Pei Ju still become a straight minister? If Your Majesty is not wise, will the Wei Ju dare to come in so directly and sharply?"

"You need to say nothing, the Ai family understands that you are making the Ai family have a normal mind and be more open-minded."

"Your Majesty is wise, and I mean this. As the saying goes, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Your Majesty truly sees it. I believe that the emperor and the princes and princesses also understand that the family will be happy. Maybe it is a good thing."

Lao Wu just smiled and said nothing.

Wang Hua's suggestion is kind-hearted, can it be done?

First of all, she could not treat Li Dan and Princess Taiping in a calm mood. These two unfilial evil deeds would also be extremely concerned about her.

Wang Hua looked at her and knew that the possibility of this suggestion was not high, so he just comforted her. After thinking about it, he said, "Your Majesty, let me play a song for you."

"Okay." Wu Zetian said, and then ordered the palace maid to bring a guqin.

Wang Hua played a song "The Great Compassion Mantra". Compared with another song "The Qingxin Mantra" from the Buddhist scriptures, this song is much less famous, but it is quiet and elegant and soothing. It would be even better if it was paired with a hole flute and a wooden fish.

However, Wang Hua's piano skills, coupled with his heartfelt prayer for Wu Zetian, made up for this.

The sun slowly drifted westward, shining on the thick green leaves. Wu Zetian closed her eyes and listened. Wang Hua was wearing plain clothes and naturally sat on the ground playing with all his heart.

The music flowed calmly and soothingly, as if a white flying cloud was scraping through the sky, a clear stream flowed through the stone, and it seemed to turn into Guanyin's thousand-handed hands, caressing the world, and hundreds of Taoist monks were singing in Zen.

The scene was harmonious and peaceful; but all the palace maids who were standing beside him could not help but burst into tears in their eyes.

After playing the song, several palace maids started to cry out loud.

Wu Zetian finally showed a kind look on her face, and she said, "The Ai family heard it. Wang Qing, you made the Ai family very happy today."

Wang Hua said respectfully: "This is what I should do, but no matter how I do it, I cannot repay Your Majesty one ten thousandth."

After saying that, he carefully helped Wu Zetian into the hall, like a filial child. It was getting late. The old lady was not suitable for staying outdoors.

Then he said goodbye and left Shangyang Palace.

Wang Hua made a purely unintentional act this time, or just a simple act from the heart, but after it was spread outside, it established a good reputation for Wang Hua.

Even the stubborn Zhang Shuzhi did not speak silently after hearing this. It was not surprising that this stinky brat played the piano to make the listener cry. But under this general trend, he was still so respectful to Wu Zetian, putting aside the controversy, not saying it, this kind of heart to repay kindness and loyalty to the emperor. Is it wrong?

After Wang Hua returned, he immediately made blackboards, chalks and blackboard erasers.

The next day, I came to Zhaowen Pavilion again, and many people came. It was strange. In fact, some smart people also vaguely felt that there was a way to quickly calculate this math problem, but in the end it was like a layer of window paper, which could not be broken no matter how hard it was.

Some people with high curiosity heard that Wang Hua arrived at Zhaowenguan again, and followed him, including Shangguan Xiaowan.

The old director said dissatisfiedly: "Sir Wang, you can't leave it all today."

Although I was a little bit wrong, if you stay for another bachelor for a day, you should stay for at least half a day. I asked a question and left after talking for less than a minute. What's going on? Is Zhaowenguan an inn? Come when I want to come, and leave when I want to. I was dissatisfied because Wang Hua hadn't reported to Zhaowenguan for a long time, and now I'm even more unhappy.

Wang Hua smiled and bowed, "Suan Tian met the Great Sage Emperor, so time has been a little hurry, and I won't know today."

Then I came to the study room, and there was no such thing as a classroom now.

Wang Hua asked: "Dear students, did you think of a way yesterday?"

This is just a fool. It is not to ask these little kids if they have any idea of ​​a way, but to ask them if they have asked someone to come up with a way. However, they were disappointed and shook their heads.

Wang Hua also calculated the achievements of mathematics in the Tang Dynasty. He studied arithmetic courses in Imperial College, but he was ashamed of it. Now I just want to ask how much people can understand mathematics now.

Since they can't even answer, many little kids are brave enough to ask for advice.

This is Wang Hua's reputation. If it were other bachelors, these little kids with noble identities would not take them seriously.

Wang Hua said: "What is one plus one thousand equal?"

"One Thousand and One." This question is easy to answer, and I answered it together.

"Where are two plus nine hundred and ninety-nine?"

"One Thousand and One." answered again.

After hearing this, some people with good understanding have already understood.

Wang Hua continued to ask, and finally asked: "What is five hundred plus five hundred and one equal? ​​What is one thousand divided into two equal? ​​What is one thousand and one times five hundred equal?"
To be continued...
