Gua Fei in the world

Chapter 353

They are scholars, what do scholars want?

It is the righteousness, the indomitable spirit, the upright character that does not flatter the world!

It is hard to sell through wind and frost, he would rather break than give up, and be proud of standing in the world of different trends!

If they don't have these, are they still worthy of being scholars?

Facing Wen Tingzhan's poem metaphor, everyone remained silent.The head of the mountain nodded, and then turned around to discuss with several gentlemen, and then said to the human being who was in the final final with Qin Dun: "Zhou Tongsheng, what Wen Tongsheng said, do you agree? If you don't agree, then we will compete tomorrow."

"Student, I approve." The student surnamed Zhou said with some difficulty.

"Okay." The head of the mountain was very pleased, so he said to the people present, "Today's last exam is over, this time the old man, Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Duan will take ten fellow students to Tanzhou in the middle of the month. When the old man is away, all the affairs of the academy will be taken care of by Mrs. Yang, I hope all the students will work hard in the academy to prepare for the big autumn exam in August."

"Students respect the instruction." All the students spoke in unison.

In this way, the list of people who went to Yuelu Academy in Tanzhou was finalized. The head of the mountain personally led the people, the two masters, the high nursing home brought six nursing homes, and ten students, because there was no direct waterway, and eight hundred It’s not too far from here. It takes about ten days to ride a horse. It takes about half a month for a carriage. The race is from April 25th to April [-]th. They all set off in the middle of the month. The chief and the two wives are also in good shape, and they plan to ride overland.

After confirming the participating students representing the academy, the school resumed normal teaching. It is only the fourth day of March, and they will have a holiday until the fifteenth day of this month, and then let the entire academy see them off.

Now the most popular academy is Gengyuan, because all four of them have gone to a schoolhouse, privately saying that their schoolhouse has the best feng shui in the whole academy, etc. There are too many rumors, Ye Yaoguang and the others just heard Just laugh it off, now the four of them plus Wen You are all gone, only Lu Yongtian is left, so Lu Yongtian is listless all day long, looking lifeless.

"I said Xiao Liu, a big man, why are you so awkward? It's just that we missed a trip. We can go out together after two months of class when we come back. Don't show us a dead face again. We have no appetite. It's gone." Ye Yaoguang looked at it for a few days, but couldn't stand it anymore.

"It's not you who was left behind as a co-author. Of course you don't have back pain when you stand and talk." Lu Yongtian muttered.

"How can anyone be blamed? It's not because you are ignorant, and it's not like you didn't take part in the competition." Lu Yongtian participated in all the events for the sake of killing a blind cat and killing a mouse, but in the end, none of them won the big luck.

"I've worked very hard too. Besides, I came to the academy to study martial arts, not literature." Lu Yongtian retorted.

"Then you can show your skills in the next martial arts competition, and then all of us will cheer for you." Ye Yaoguang said.

"Even if it's a martial arts competition, there's no telling who will wave the flag to whom..." After thinking about Ye Yaoguang and Wen Tingzhan, he murmured to himself in a low voice.

"Okay, Xiao Liu, don't be sad, we will bring you gifts when we come back, one for each of you." Wen You still felt sorry for Lu Yongtian, so he comforted him.

"Yeah." Lu Yongtian was still listless.

"Xiao Liu, come to the study, I have something to tell you." Wen Tingzhan said suddenly, stood up and went to the study.

Lu Yongtian immediately followed him in, not knowing what the two of them said in the study, they walked out after about a cup of tea, and then the weak Lu Yongtian was revived with blood.

"Mosquito, please remember to bring me a gift, remember to bring me a set of Liling porcelain, my old man likes to play with porcelain the most, and make me a good one of Hunan embroidery, my mother's favorite, and..." Chatting, talking about all the specialties of Zhongzhou.

"All right, all right, we'll designate it for you." Xiao Shirui nodded his promise.

"By the way, Xiaoshu, give me some money." Lu Yongtian stretched out his thick palm in front of Ye Yaoguang, "You and Yunhe are gone, I can't really let me eat steamed buns for a month, and In case I have something urgent, what should I do, so give me 5000 taels first, and when I have more money in the coming year, I will return 1 taels to you."

Ye Yaoguang stretched out his hand and slapped Lu Yongtian's hand open: "Don't worry, I will leave Wang Yilin behind and hand over the money to him. I promise he will fix your three meals a day. What is your urgent matter?" Just talk to him."

"You..." Lu Yongtian said sadly and angrily, "You let a servant control me!"

"That's good, you don't want me to take it away." Ye Yaoguang looked as if you wanted it or not.

"I want it!" Lu Yongtian hurriedly begged for mercy, something is better than nothing.

Woohoo, he is so pathetic.

"You only brought one book boy?" Wen You was surprised.

"Yilin is not good at skills, and the road may not be without danger, so I left him here, and I will change to a bookboy when the time comes." Wen Tingzhan explained.

Wen You and Qin Dun looked at Xiao Shirui and nodded with comprehension, and they also went back to change to a book boy with a good skill. The academy does not mandate who it is, but each person must bring one.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and soon it was the middle of the month. Even if there were classes in ten or so days, the preparations were ready. Everyone rested early on the evening of the [-]th, and then the next morning When he got up, he rode his horse and swung his whip to Tanzhou during the farewell of all the students led by Master Yang.

The ancient post station is about [-] miles away, which is basically the distance of riding a horse for a day. You can leave early in the morning and arrive at the post station in the evening. The chiefs of several major academies are employed by the imperial court, so they are naturally official positions, so they can live in the post station. , the post station is also relatively safe.

It was already six days after leaving Yuzhang County Fucheng and entering Shanggao County, then entering Xinyu County from Shanggao County and finally entering Pingxiang County. They arrived at the station later that day. When they came, the station already had a route. Households brought their family members to live in officials who did not know whether they were appointed or for some reason. There were not many guest rooms left, so they could only be squeezed by two people, and the nursing home and school children were even squeezed by four people.

It was during dinner that Ye Yaoguang found out that it was Gu Yuansheng, the procurator of Zhongzhou, who was ordered to bring his family back to Beijing to report on his duties.

"This year is the third year of performance appraisal." Xiao Shirui said, "From next month, more and more officials will return to Beijing to report on their duties."

After reading the book for so long, everyone knows what the three-year performance appraisal is.At this time, I saw a man in his thirties helping a young woman with a pot belly to the place where the food had already been served in the dining hall. This man had a cold face, but he was very careful with his wife.

However, as they stayed by Ye Yaoguang's side all the way, Tian Lin in Ye Yaoguang's sleeve trembled.
