Chapter 799 The chaotic Yushan Academy [Subscribe*Monthly Tickets]

"Is father going back to grandpa's house?" Xiao Yun'e asked naively.

"Yes, go back to grandpa's house!" Yan Yan was stunned for a moment, but still confirmed the title.

Shao Siming, Yan Lingji and others were also very curious about what kind of existence Yushan Academy was and how it could teach such outstanding disciples.

It’s a pity that for so many years, they haven’t had the chance to visit Yushan Academy and meet Yan Yan’s elders.

Even at the time of the wedding, Yushan Academy did not send an elder to preside over the wedding in order to avoid suspicion.

"Should we ask General Cao Shen to dispatch 5,000 cavalry to escort the emperor?"

Mo Ya understood Yan Yan's feelings very well and took the initiative to remind him.

Since he wants to return home rich and powerful, the ceremony must be big.

Besides, the money for this tour does not need to be paid by Bingzhou. Qin State would be happy to do so under the banner of helping Qin State conquer Wu County.

Yan Yan nodded with satisfaction. As expected of him after meeting Hei Bai Xuan Jian, he became much wiser.

When returning home rich and powerful, it is natural to arrange some imperial ceremonies.

Cao Shen learned his lesson this time. When he heard that Yan Yan wanted to select 5,000 cavalrymen for ceremonial guards, he immediately selected those soldiers of similar height and body shape who looked intimidating from the army to form a 5,000-strong ceremonial guard team.

Combat capability is not the first criterion. The first criteria are height, body shape, and good looks. Even the color of the warhorse requires a uniform white horse.

Looking at the majestic all-white horse guard of honor, Yan Yan was also very satisfied.

After Li Xin, Meng Yi and others learned that Yan Yan was going to Wu County, they decisively dispatched 3,000 Qin infantrymen to lead the way. They were also dressed in uniform and equipped with standard equipment of the same color.

The main feature is that it is majestic and good-looking!
"Your Majesty, when you return home, what gift should you choose?" Nong Yu reminded Yan Yan responsibly.

There was a military parade, but no one would go home without bringing gifts.

Yan Yan came back to his senses. Although he wanted to show off by visiting Yushan Academy, the gift should not be too light, especially since he was the emperor. Ordinary gifts were not enough.

"Jewelry and jade are too vulgar!" Yan Yan thought.

Yushan Academy and the Yan family are not short of money, nor do they care about these mundane things.

"Chu State Collection Room!" Yan Yan's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yan Jia and Yu Shan were literary masters who cared about knowledge and inheritance. The Chu State, as the origin of romantic literature, was most lacking in these classics.

After they occupied Shouchun, they immediately sealed up the collection room, unlike Xiang Ji, who was a reckless man who entered Xianyang and burned a large number of books in the Qin Academy and the Qin collection room.

"Choose ten thousand books from the library of the Chu Palace as gifts!"

"Here!"

Nong Yu nodded slightly and bowed, then rushed to the Chu State Collection Room with her guards to begin selecting suitable books.

After everything was ready, the army cleared the way and set out from Shouchun in a mighty procession to Yushan Academy in Wu County.

Seeing the mighty, majestic and domineering army coming, the counties along the way didn't even think of resisting, not to mention the red flame flag that was unique to Bingzhou made them unable to muster the slightest desire to resist.

Even before the emperor's carriage arrived, local nobles and officials took the initiative to open the city gates and go out of the city to pay their respects.

When Yushan Academy received the news, the entire Wu County and Yushan Academy were in chaos.

It's not that they don't know how to receive the emperor on tour. As the head of Confucian literature, they are well versed in etiquette. The key is that they never thought that Yan Yan would come back. The entire Yushan Academy, and even the whole Wu County, big and small, as long as the Yan family is active, there are a lot of propaganda hanging that xxx was once on equal terms with the Emperor Xuanwu, and surpassed the Emperor.

Especially Yushan Academy. In order to intimidate the scholars who came to Yushan Academy to study because of Yan Yan's name, they made a lot of these things. It would be very embarrassing if Yan Yan saw them or someone accidentally let it slip.

Therefore, the entire Yushan Academy and Wu County were cleansed over an area of ​​almost thirty miles. The entire academy and the county were completely cleansed, and no one dared to leave any disrespectful things behind.

Lian Po and Li Mu looked at the chaos in Yushan Academy with amusement.

The more arrogant you were at the beginning, the more nervous you will be now.

"We should keep secrets for the respected and the loved ones. We are scholars and cannot expose people's scars in front of them, especially for the respected and loved ones like Emperor Xuanwu. We should save some face for the emperor!"

The Yan family and Yushan Academy remained stubborn and found the most reasonable explanation for their actions.

"Yes, yes, we believe it!"

Lian Po, Li Mu and the scholars studying at Yushan Academy nodded.

"Ahem, those bamboo slips with rankings have been hidden!" The head of the Yan family reminded his teachers.

It would be very embarrassing if these people really got carried away and started showing off.

Although based on their understanding of Yan Yan, he would not care about these things and would not get angry about them, but if it were to get out, it would still have a bad impact.

"Call all clan members back to Yushan Academy!" Family head Yan continued to remind.

It’s not that they are planning to come out and get close to Yan Yan, they just want Yan Yan to see how prosperous the Yan family is now, tell Yan Yan that he doesn’t need to worry about the Yan family, and allocate any resources to the Yan family.

Although Yan Yan never took the initiative to help the Yan family, and the Yan family never used Yan Yan's power to cause trouble, there is something called the celebrity effect.

Because Yan Yan's name has spread throughout China, countless scholars have come to study there on their own initiative. Yushan Academy has now become the third Confucian academy after the Confucius Temple and Xiaoshengxianzhuang. Even the Meng Mansion is ranked behind Yushan Academy.

This is the change that Yan Yan brought to the Yan family and Yushan Academy.

Originally, Yushan Academy was just a small academy that only recruited children of the Yan family and vassal children of nobles around the Yan family and Wu County. Its influence was also limited to the vicinity of Wu County. However, as Yan Yan's reputation grew, many children of nobles from all over the world were sent to Yushan Academy to study.

Therefore, the scale of Yushan Academy is much larger than when Yan Yan left.

The entire academy no longer occupied only the hillside of Yushan Mountain. The study rooms, school buildings, and teaching fields were spread all over Yushan Mountain. The number of students in the academy and teachers exceeded a thousand.

Judging from the number of students alone, Yushan Academy is the best in the world.

After waiting for about half a month, the emperor's carriage finally entered Wu County.

The head of the Yan family, along with Magistrate Wu, the teachers and scholars of Yushan, went thirty miles out of the city to welcome them.

As they went out to greet him with a grand ceremony, the people of Wu County followed curiously. Who wouldn't want to meet this emperor who came from their Wu County?

Yan Yan's influence was not limited to Yushan Academy, but also affected the people of Wu County.

In the past, when they went out, they said they were from Wu County. How many people knew where Wu County was?
Now whenever they travel far away, they will say, "I am from Wu County." Everyone in the world knows the Wu County, the hometown of Emperor Xuanwu!

They would not even say that they were from the State of Chu, but from Jianghu County.

What Chu State, what Jianghu County, are they worthy of being compared with our Wu County?

Don't get involved!
