(First Class: Little Fatty's Revolt!)
Following a loud laugh, Li Tai, the little fatty, walked in with a smile on his face. He was dressed in luxurious clothes.
Kong Yingda and Xu Hongzhi, who were near the door, quickly stood up and cupped their hands. "Greetings, Prince of Wei!"
Li Zexuan was also surprised. He cupped his hands at Li Tai and said, "Greetings, Prince of Wei!"
The rest of the students looked at Li Tai in surprise. Just as they were about to stand up and bow, Li Tai smiled and waved his hand. "No need to be so polite. I came to the Imperial College today to listen to the class. From today onwards, I am also a student of the School of Mathematics. We will be classmates in the future!"
"Buzz buzz …"
The students in the hall couldn't help but discuss among themselves. The buzzing sound was endless.
"Oh my god, Prince of Wei will be classmates with us in the future. Did I hear wrongly?"
"This is unbelievable!"
"Our new mister is too amazing. He even managed to attract His Highness King Wei over!"
"I have decided. I will stay in the School of Mathematics from now on. With such an impressive teacher and Prince of Wei as my classmate, why should I go to the Four Gates School?"
"Brother Meng is right!"
… …
As the saying went, "Learn literature and martial arts, and you will be a part of the Emperor's family." Scholars like them studied hard so that they could be recognized by the Emperor and become successful. Now that Prince of Wei, who was the Emperor's favorite, was in the School of Mathematics, why should they leave?
When Kong Yingda heard that Li Tai wanted to study in the School of Mathematics, he couldn't help but be shocked. He quickly tried to dissuade him. "Your Highness, you can't do this!"
Li Tai smiled and said, "Chancellor Kong, my father has already agreed to this. From today onwards, I will be a student of the School of Mathematics."
Kong Yingda shook his head helplessly and retreated to the side.
Li Tai looked at Li Zexuan and said, "After we parted at Strange Taste Pavilion that day, Brother Li was first conferred a noble title and then appointed by my father as a Doctor of Mathematics in the Imperial College. Brother Li is really successful! I wonder if Professor Li is willing to accept Little Wang as his student? "
Li Zexuan heard that Li Tai was going to be a student in the school. Although he looked calm on the surface, he felt a little strange in his heart. He didn't know what this little fatty was going to do. Could it be that he hadn't been tortured enough last time and wanted to get back at him?
Haha, come, come. He wasn't afraid of this little fatty.
"Your Highness, why do you say that? As the saying goes, education is open to all. Since I am teaching in the School of Mathematics, I can teach anyone. However, if Your Highness enters the School of Mathematics, there will only be teachers and students. There will no longer be any Wei Wang!"
He had to give this little fatty a heads-up. If he were to come over and put on airs in front of everyone, how would he be able to teach? How would the other students learn?
Li Tai understood the meaning behind Li Zexuan's words. He smiled and said, "Of course. From now on, in this School of Mathematics, Mister and my fellow students can call me Qing Que. I will not put on the airs of a prince."
Last time in front of Strange Taste Pavilion, he was asked ten questions in a row by Li Zexuan until he was speechless. Li Tai had regarded this as the shame of his life. He had been doted on by Li Er's eldest grandson since he was young and had been praised for his intelligence many times. How could he be willing to lose to Li Zexuan, who was previously a nobody?
Yesterday, when he heard that Li Zexuan was going to be a postdoc in mathematics, he was moved. He thought that it would be better if he could learn all of Li Zexuan's knowledge and use it to defeat him.
Therefore, Li Tai asked Li Er to enter the School of Mathematics to study. Li Er had always doted on this child. Moreover, this was not a big deal, so he naturally agreed.
When Li Zexuan heard Li Tai's promise, he nodded and said, "Qingque, go and find a place to sit!"
Li Tai looked around and finally sat between Iron Egg and Lan 'er under the disappointed gazes of some students.
Kong Yingda and Xu Hongzhi, who were next to him, widened their eyes in disbelief. The Prince of Wei was naughty and mischievous, which was known by all the civil and military officials. Li Zexuan spoke to him in such a commanding tone, but he was not angry at all. Was … was this an illusion?
After Li Tai sat down, Li Zexuan looked at him and asked, "Qingque, you said you had a question before. Now say it!"
Li Tai looked like an obedient child. He stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Teacher, this student's question is: Today, there are two people together. The first line is seven steps, the second line is three steps, the second line is ten steps to the east, the first line is ten steps to the south, and the third line is in the northeast.
After saying this, Li Tai's lips curled up into an evil smile. This question was one that he had asked several scholars in the Prince of Wei's Literature Hall to find. It was an extremely difficult math question. He had specifically memorized it and wanted to find an opportunity to make trouble for Li Zexuan today. He hadn't expected Li Zexuan to take the initiative to give him a chance to ask.
"Wow!"
In the classroom, other than Li Zexuan and Li Tai, everyone else was in an uproar when they heard this question.
"This question is so difficult. Where did the Prince of Wei find such a difficult question?"
"I don't know. Brother Ke, do you know?"
"It should be from the 'Nine-Chapter Arithmetic' Pythagorean chapter. I've seen it before, but it was too difficult, so I couldn't solve it."
"Oh, it's the most difficult Pythagorean chapter. This time, Mr. Li is in trouble."
"Yes, the situation is not good!"
.....
Li Zexuan had inherited the memories of his predecessor, so he could still understand simple ancient Chinese. The translation of this question was: It is known that A and B set off from the same place at the same time. A's speed is seven, B's speed is three. B keeps walking east, A first walks south for ten steps, then walks north and slightly east for a while before meeting B. How far did A and B walk?
When he heard this question, he was a little surprised. This little fatty did not come with good intentions today. If he wanted to solve this question, he would need to use the Pythagorean theorem and a quadratic equation. If it was someone else, they would definitely be stumped. However, how could Li Zexuan be stumped by a junior high mathematics question?
However, what Li Zexuan did not expect was that the ancient people had already learned the Pythagorean theorem. This was something that his previous mathematics teacher did not tell him. It seemed that he could never underestimate the wisdom of the ancient people!
In fact, the Pythagorean theorem was recorded in detail in the Nine-Chapter Arithmetic, but it was mainly used in astronomy.
The Pythagorean chapter of the 《Nine Chapters of Arithmetic》 begins with the introduction of the Pythagorean theorem and its variations. The Pythagorean theorem states: the Pythagorean and the Pythagorean are multiplied by each other, and the Pythagorean and the Pythagorean are multiplied by each other, and the Pythagorean and the Pythagorean are multiplied by each other, and the Pythagorean and the Pythagorean are multiplied by the Pythagorean and the Pythagorean.
Therefore, the Pythagorean Technique can be understood as a method of deducing the third side of a known right triangle from both sides.
Li Zexuan quickly listed the equations in his mind and solved them. In a few breaths, he got the answer. This was the benefit of having a strong spiritual power. It allowed his brain to react as fast as a computer.
"Hehe, Qingque, this question is very good. Some of you may think that this question is very difficult, but in fact, as long as you learn my new mathematics, this question can be solved in less than ten minutes."
After Li Zexuan finished speaking, the rest of the students widened their eyes in disbelief and whispered to each other. Li Tai looked at him indifferently. In fact, he thought that Li Zexuan must be bragging.
Li Zexuan smiled and said, "The answer to this question is that A took ten and a half steps, and B took twenty-four and a half steps. Am I right, Qingque?"
Li Tai could no longer stay calm. He opened his mouth and said, "How is this possible? It took the Grand Secretary of the Prince's Mansion two days to calculate! "
When the rest of the students heard this, they knew that Li Zexuan had answered correctly again. They could not help but cheer.
"That's great, Mr. Li answered correctly. He doesn't have to leave the school anymore!"
"That's amazing, Mr. Li is really amazing!"
"It's great that we can learn such amazing mathematics in the future, haha!"
.....
Li Tai was stunned for a long time and finally came to his senses. He cupped his hands and said to Li Zexuan, "Mr. Li is very talented and knowledgeable. I am sincerely convinced!"
Seeing this, Lan 'er smiled with her small eyes. She was very proud to have such an amazing brother.
Bruiser also had a proud look on his face.
Kong Yingda and Xu Hongzhi were both shocked and speechless. They thought to themselves, "It seems that a great person has come to the Imperial College!"
"Well, half an hour is up. Since you didn't stump me, I will be your teacher from now on. From today onwards, I will lead you to the real door of mathematics. At that time, you will find that you have come to a new world!"
Li Zexuan looked at the time and said to the group of children in a clear voice.
