Seeing Lin Yanchao challenged three rural boys on the side of the country.

The scholar named Huang folded the folding fan and pointed at Hou Zhongshu. Zhang Haoyuan said, "It's fine if you're rude, you're spraying manure all over your mouth, and you're still talking nonsense. Why do you need a great master? Even if you sing the thousand-character text into flowers, you can still get his appreciation?"

Zhang Haoyuan sneered: "A coincidence, that's the truth."

Hou Zhongshu continued, "If you don't believe it, then go and ask him!" He said and pointed at Zhou Zongcheng.

"Brother Zhou is it?" Huang Shizi turned his head, a little unbelievable.

Zhou Zongcheng was not very reluctant to admit it, but he couldn't lie in public, "Brother Huang, this kid is not just a lucky thing. If I had read the Thousand Characters for three years, I could have memorized it. To be honest, this kid probably hasn't even studied the Confucianism yet, so what else do you want to take the imperial examination in the future?"

The scholar surnamed Huang was very embarrassed, but after listening to the words behind Zhou Zongcheng, he looked slow and said, "So that's the case, it's nothing great. The Thousand Characters are just read casually when he was in elementary school. The Four Books and Five Classics are the right way. Do you know? We all started to study the classics at the age of eight or nine."

When the scholar surnamed Huang said this, the other scholars on the side also agreed: "Yes, there are no ones who are connected to the classics in remote mountain villages. No wonder they can only read the text of Thousand Characters."

Everyone seemed to have recovered their confidence and laughed haha.

After hearing Hou Zhongshu, Zhang Haoyuan couldn't help but feel a little worried. Hou Zhongshu had not even started to touch the edge of the classics, and Zhang Haoyuan only started reading the Four Books when he was twelve years old.

The scholar surnamed Huang saw the expressions of Hou and Zhang and couldn't help but feel proud.

The scholars started to ridicule loudly, which immediately attracted others to stop and watch.

A twenty-year-old scholar walked in and said, "Brother Huang, Brother Zhou, why did you start arguing?"

When these scholars saw the visiting people, they bowed and said, "It turns out it's Brother Weng."

The scholar surnamed Huang also stepped forward and said, "Brother Weng, fortunately, why did you meet you here? Oh, I almost forgot that Brother Weng is also from Hongtang Township."

Lin Yanchao looked at this scholar, who was less than twenty years old, but he was old and looked a little melancholy.

Zhou Zongcheng said: "Brother Weng is here just right. You are not here. I can only teach you a lesson. There are only a few young men in your village who have never even studied the classics but are arrogant."

A scholar named Huang introduced to Lin Yanchao and others with a bright face: "Look, this brother Weng Zhengchun is also from your Hongtang Township, but he received the Mao Shi Rites at the age of seven and was renamed the Shangshu at the age of eleven. As for the Four Books, he has long since been reading it."

When Lin Yanchao heard the three words "Weng Zhaozhen", he couldn't help but shocked, and looked at the young man who was less than 20 years old and had a melancholy look. Weng Zhengchun was from Hongtang again, yes, 80% of him were him.

This is the first celebrity Lin Yanchao met after traveling through time.

He happened to know that during the Wanli period of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, Fuzhou Prefecture produced two top scorers in the country. One was Gong Yongqing, the current priest of the Imperial College in Nanjing, and the other was Weng Zhengchun, the top scorer who won the palace examination twenty years later.

Of course, the top scholar is the top scholar. The learning progress of this top scholar made Lin Yanchao stunned. He received the Mao Shi Rites at the age of seven and was renamed the Shangshu at the age of eleven.

In other words, Weng Zhengchun not only completed the coursework of the Four Books, but also mastered the Book of Songs, Book of Rites, and Book of Documents in the Five Classics. You should know that the Four Books and Five Classics are compulsory, and the Five Classics are electives. In the boy's examination, as long as you master the Five Classics, you can only master the Five Classics, but people actually read the Three Classics.

Lin Yanchao was inevitably unbalanced. The top scholar was studying three of the Five Classics at the age of eleven, and he started reading the Four Books at the age of twelve. The gap was not very big.

When he heard the scholar named Huang mention him, Weng Zhengchun said humbly: "Brother Huang praised it. It is better to break a book than to read thousands of books. If I could concentrate on studying one classic, I would not have failed the two consecutive examinations. I am not even a child student yet."

I failed the imperial examination twice in a row! It’s not true that both children are born! My God.

Others only think that Weng Zhengchun is a humble poem, but Lin Yanchao's face is very bad. Although he knows that the imperial examination is not easy, it is not so difficult. This later fellow countryman, the top scholar, failed the imperial examination twice before he was twenty years old.

Lin Yanchao was in a bad mood immediately. Seeing these people still making noise, he suddenly became displeased. This was what you messed with me!

"Brother Weng, I'm so humble. I've only been studying the classics for a few years. It's far less than yours, but it's still much better than some rural boys."

Lin Yanchao glanced at him and said, "Are you here to Hongtang Township to show your reputation?"

Lin Yanchao kept silent, and this opening made them stunned.

"You are young and ignorant, nothing is it? I don't blame you, but why do we get to know each other? It's amazing to start studying at the age of eight or nine. You are worthy of claiming to be a ritual? I want to use our vulgarity to highlight your erudition? It's great to raise yourself and belittle others? I'm inferior, and I still find confidence in others? I'm very proud of it?"

Speaking of this, Lin Yanchao pointed to Zhou Zongcheng and the others' noses and shouted: "Who do you think you are? Come to our Hongtang Township and play wild. I will count three times for you and get out immediately, otherwise we will beat you!"

Lin Yanchao used his ultimate move and was full of map cannons. Only a few scholars, including Weng Zhengchun, were stunned. The people on the side clapped. The restaurants of the couple were all the people in Hongtang Township. I heard that some people were swaying on their territory and they all hated the enemy.

"Good scolding!"

"Get out!"

"Get out!"

Everyone stood on Lin Yanchao's side. Zhou Zongcheng pointed at Lin Yanchao and said a few of you, you, you.

The scholars surnamed Huang were so angry that they smoked in their noses.

The scholar surnamed Huang pointed at Lin Yanchao and said, "Okay, you have a genitals, please wait for me!"

"One!" Lin Yanchao raised his first finger, and there were already helpers on the dock around him. These people were all fast and big, big and thick.

The surname Huang and Zhou Zongcheng were so scared that they were all urinating, and they didn't care about the face of scholars now.

"A real man can bend and stretch, let's go!"

Someone said this and a few people ran away immediately. The people burst into laughter.

Hou Zhongshu and Zhang Haoyuan were clapping their hands. Hou Zhongshu patted Lin Yanchao's shoulder and said, "Yanchao, you said these words very well."

"I am inferior to myself and still seek confidence in others, so I scold you well." Zhang Haoyuan clapped and laughed.

Lin Yanchao smiled and bowed to Sifang, saying, "Thank you all the villagers for your support!"

"Young man, why are you polite!"

"You've just scolded you, so we're relieved!"

"Outsiders don't know, but our Hongtang Township is always the top scholar and the Jinshi!"

The villagers said to me, and Weng Zhengchun said to Lin Yanchao: "My classmates were really rude just now. I will apologize to you on their behalf!"

"Brother Weng, why do you say that?" Lin Yanchao moved a chair and said, "Their affairs have nothing to do with you. It is better to meet by chance than to meet each other. How about sitting down and eating a bowl of cauldron?"

"This." Weng Zhengchun hesitated a little.

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "Brother Weng, we can't afford to hire Xingyi Tower, but we can still afford to pay for the tripod with a penny and a bowl of dirt!"

Lin Yanchao said this, and Weng Zhengchun also smiled and said immediately: "Brother Lin is so happy, it's really me who is here to be the boss."

Weng Zhengchun sat down immediately, and Zhang Haoyuan greeted the boss: "The boss added a pair of chopsticks, then picked up the bowl of batter on the edge of the tripod, three oyster cakes, and two slices of robu cake!"

"Okay." The boss greeted him, brought the baked paste, oyster cake, and robu cake, and added a bowl of clam broth.

Everyone smiled and said, "Miaoji, Miaoji, oyster cakes, and robu cakes are all hot, so the bowl of clam soup is just right to neutralize it."

The four of them had a meal and chatted, and Lin Yanchao also asked Weng Zhengchun for more knowledge.

After confirming each other, Lin Yanchao and Weng Zhengchun's academic studies were more than ten streets apart, and they could understand the difference between him and the first-class students in the prefectures. However, Lin Yanchao is better than the ancients because of his wide range of knowledge and the knowledge accumulated over hundreds of years. After Weng Zhengchun made a little clear, Lin Yanchao was often able to learn from it, and many of the views made Weng Zhengchun very rewarding.

Weng Zhengchun also put down his thoughts on Lin Yanchao and said, "Brother Lin is involved in the classics, but he has such insights. In time, he will make achievements. Fortunately, Brother Lin is young. If he could study four or five years earlier, he would be my opponent in the next year's children's examination."

After hearing Weng Zhengchun's words, Hou Zhongshu, Zhang Haoyuan didn't agree with it, but Lin Yanchao thought that this was the evaluation of the top scholar.

However, Lin Yanchao asked, "Why would you like to ask Brother Weng, I will start studying the scriptures now, and will I have any hope of participating in the county examination in the next year?"

Weng Zhengchun said immediately: "Brother Lin is too impatient. I have been studying the classics for six years before going to the children's exam. There are many other students who have been studying the classics for more than ten years before going to the children's exam. Of course, if Brother Lin wants to try his luck, I have nothing to say, but if you take the exam a few years later, it is not more stable. Why bother to fight for this time?"
