Official solution

【Analysis】Draw MQM Q parallel to BCB C intersecting DFD F at QQ, and draw EPE P parallel to ABA B intersecting BMB M at PP. Using the proportional relationships between line segments, find the ratio of the areas of the triangles, and finally determine the area of the shaded part.

【Solution】According to the analysis, as shown in the figure, draw MQM Q parallel to BCB C intersecting DFD F at QQ, and draw EPE P parallel to ABA B intersecting BMB M at PP,
M\because M is the midpoint of CDC D, so QM:PC=1:2,QM:BF=1:4Q M: P C=1: 2, \therefore Q M: B F=1: 4, so GM:GB=1:4G M: G B=1: 4, BG:BM=4:5\therefore B G: B M=4: 5; also, since BF:BC=2:3,SBFG=45×23 SABC=215B F: B C=2: 3, S_{\triangle \mathrm{BFG}}=\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{2}{3} \mathrm{~S}_{\triangle \mathrm{ABC}}=\frac{2}{15};
E\because E is the trisection point on side BCB C, so EP:CM=1:3,EP:AB=1:6E P: C M=1: 3, \therefore E P: A B=1: 6,
BH:HP=6:1,BH:HM=6:15=2:5,BH:BG=2:7\therefore B H: H P=6: 1, \therefore B H: H M=6: 15=2: 5, B H: B G=2: 7,
also GM:GB=1:4,BH:BG=5:14,SBEH=514×12×SBFG=142\because G M: \quad G B=1: 4, \therefore B H: B G=5: 14, \therefore \mathrm{S}_{\triangle \mathrm{BEH}}=\frac{5}{14} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \mathrm{S}_{\triangle \mathrm{BFG}}=\frac{1}{42},

Therefore, the answer is: 23210\frac{23}{210}.
