Saint Immortal Way

Lu Yang also saw it. Princess Shouyang, who is the leader, is very heroic. She wears a bright red embroidered gold three-clawed glazed boa robe, a large golden crown with white jade cloud patterns on her head, and a black embroidered cloak. At this age, his face is like jade, his beauty is natural, his complexion is rosy, and his brows are full of heroism.

The princess came at a leisurely pace, exuding a faint righteousness from her body, as if gathering the spiritual beauty of the heavens, earth, mountains and rivers.Next to the princess, half a step behind, is a young female official in official robes, who is also dignified, noble, and beautiful. Behind the two, there are seven or eight great Confucianists, great Confucians, and even great masters who have achieved Taoism. .

These seven or eight are all Confucian teachers, they are the head and supervisor of Bailongtan Academy, as well as the great Confucianists and great Confucians who sit on the seats of Confucian teachers.Most of these people are already old, with gray beards and hair, and their bodies are full of righteousness, and each of them has a calm demeanor.There were also three great Confucians and great Confucians with still black beard and hair, and one of them was none other than Lu Yang's teacher Huang Zongxi.

Just when Lu Yang was shocked by the awe-inspiring righteousness of the princesses and Confucian teachers who filed in, those who did not bow down in the palace raised their hands one after another, bowed down and made long bows, bowing still, to show respect to the princess. and the respect of Confucian teachers.

It was the first time for Lu Yang to encounter this kind of situation. When he came back to his senses, he quickly imitated the example, and he was a bit behind in bowing. When Lu Yang made a long bow, Princess Shouyang had already passed in front of Lu Yang and others.

"Huh?" Princess Shouyang stopped suddenly, turned her head to look at the second daughter of the Huang family, then turned her eyes to Lu Yang and Qian Lai, and the group of Confucian teachers who followed the princess also stopped.

"You four students, no courtesy!" Princess Shouyang smiled.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Lu Yang suddenly had a bad feeling, and the Huang family sisters and Qian Lai also put away their salutes together, very honored and excited to meet Shouyang Princess Qing Ling with majestic eyes.

"The three of you look handsome, and this one is also a bit lucky. Are you from Bailongtan Academy?" Princess Shouyang asked.

"Back to Your Royal Highness, student Qian...Qian Lai!" Qian Lai was so excited that he almost fainted, because the princess said he was blessed?

Huang Daoyun glanced at Lu Yang, and quickly replied: "Your Highness, I am Huang Daoyun, a student of Bailongtan Academy, and my younger sister Huang Yiyi is a student of the academy. Junior brother Lu Yang is going to take an exam at Bailongtan Academy. Before entering the academy, worship the Taidao sage first!"

As soon as these words came out, Shang Guanyi, the female official next to Princess Shouyang, immediately frowned, her face turned serious, and without waiting for the princess to speak, she immediately shouted: "You are so bold, a homeless person, why don't you salute the princess when you see the princess?"

"I have a Taoist career, so I have a reputation... Doesn't it mean that those who have a reputation don't have to bow down? My seniors and sisters don't have to kneel down, I..." Lu Yang was puzzled.

"You haven't entered the academy yet, and you are the first in the heart and Tao karma. Although you have merit, you are nameless. Does this count as fame? Ignorant child, neglect the princess, you are guilty?!" The female officer said at the end. His expressions were all fierce, and the posture of ordering the left and right guards to take down Lu Yang was really a catastrophe.

Lu Yang was dumbfounded!

Qian Lai was also stunned and stupid!

Princess Shouyang also frowned, as if she felt that the reprimand by the female officials around her was too much, and Huang Zongxi, who was in the team of Confucian teachers, frowned even more, this situation was beyond his expectation.

"It's killing people..." Huang Daoyun said something bad, and quickly pulled the dumbfounded Lu Yang to kneel down together, begging: "His Royal Highness, my junior brother was originally from a peasant family and didn't understand etiquette. I have just worshiped my father as a teacher, and I am about to come to Bailongtan Academy to practice, I don’t want to make a joke here, and I have lost my manners, so please forgive me, Your Highness the Princess!”

Lv Yang broke out in a cold sweat, only then did he feel the majesty of the emperor, and he shuddered, and hurriedly said: "It's extremely, it turns out that the students didn't understand the meaning of fame and fame, so they got confused..."

Lu Yang's parents were already terrified at this time, especially Lu Yang's, whose slightly obese body trembled, and almost fainted. Her heart was pounding, and she raised it to her throat, fearing that Lu Yang would be punished. She thought that if her son was convicted, she would die.

"Dare to call yourself a student without a student status. This is a violation of the rules. Come on, take this lunatic..." The female officer was about to shout and order Habayashi Wei to take Lu Yang down. At the critical moment, Princess Shouyang obviously felt too much. However, with a wave of her hand, the female officer immediately swallowed the word "take it down".

In the Great Kuang Dynasty, there was a strict hierarchy, and the world was divided into three, six, and nine grades. According to the scholars who read the books of sages and practiced the holy way in the world, those who could not read were Bai Ding.Those who are literate and sensible, but have not completed any holy path can only be called students, and students generally include those who are enlightening in private schools.

Gathering the light of the heart, cultivating a meaningful spirit, advancing to the first stage of "establishing the heart and career", and entering the academy, and those who have a student status are those who have both fame and fame. Such talents are students, and they can also call themselves students.

Even in the future, when the fame is high, in order to show modesty, you can usually call yourself a student in front of elders or high-ranking people.This is all etiquette. During the Great Kuang Dynasty, rituals and music were counted in the six arts of imperial scriptures, and they were more important than etiquette. If people are rude, they will be ruined, and if the country is rude, it will perish. This is the principle. It is universal and universal. , is the dry outline.

Although Lu Yang has meritorious service, he is still unnamed, so he cannot be called a student, so Lu Yang has exceeded the limit. If this is normal, he can turn a blind eye and close one eye, and no one will make a fuss over a molehill, but now he is in Taidao. In the holy temple, even in front of the royal princess, the situation is a bit delicate.

The female official accompanied Princess Shouyang to the Moling Mansion for the first time, so she must always pay attention to maintaining the dignity of the princess. Once there is a sign, she will try her best to protect it, so as not to let someone have ulterior motives and make progress. But no one thought that the person who hit the gun was actually Lu Yang. juvenile.

With a plop, Qian Lai was so frightened that he fell on the ground, his fat body trembling slightly, for fear that the princess would also take him with him.

"The Shangguan is waiting for an edict. This is the Temple of the Supreme Dao. It is really inappropriate to make a big move. I think this student also has the heart of Taoism. Don't be too strict!"

"However, Your Highness, the great law of courtesy and etiquette is a golden rule and should not be ignored..." the female official Shangguan saluted and said solemnly.

Princess Shouyang chuckled, and turned to ask Lu Yang: "You also heard from my waiter, that it is impossible to violate the majesty of this hall without an explanation, but this hall thinks you are ignorant, so you can forgive me, and you say Say, who do you worship as a teacher, why didn't your teacher explain to you clearly the stakes here?"

Lu Yang's face was burning hot, and he glanced at the Confucian masters, then he lowered his head and stopped talking.Huang Zongxi groaned inwardly, so he could only get out of the crowd, bowed to Princess Shouyang, and said, "His Royal Highness, let me tell you, this young man is my new disciple!"

In the Great Kuang Dynasty, the Holy Way was the only one, and there were hundreds of academies in the Great Kuang. Confucian teachers were all officials with official rank. In front of His Highness the Princess, he called himself a lower official.

As soon as Huang Zongxi spoke, Lu Yang and the two daughters of the Huang family breathed a sigh of relief, but all the Confucian teachers looked at each other, and one of the gray-haired courtyard supervisors laughed loudly: "Interesting, it's interesting, it turns out that Brother Zongxi There are also times when you make mistakes... Brother Zong Xi, you have always been conceited, why do you teach your disciples like this, the so-called lax teaching, laziness of the teacher, you should fight, you really should fight!"

Huang Zongxi was suddenly embarrassed, and the other Confucian masters laughed at the right time, partly to relieve their anger, and even partly to help Huang Zongxi out of the siege, the tense atmosphere melted away for a while.

Princess Shouyang really smiled, she knew this Huang Zongxi, and her father had praised her, and now she was going to study in Bailongtan Academy, so she had to be taught by a Confucian teacher like Huang Zongxi.Since it was his disciple who was disrespectful, it's better not to lose face.

"His Royal Highness, I don't blame the teacher, but the student has just entered the teacher's school and has not had time to follow the teacher to practice..." Lu Yang shuddered and said hastily.

Princess Shouyang looked at Lu Yang and nodded: "Well, Master Huang is a great Confucian in my Moling Mansion. Since you can get into the eyes of Master Huang, you must have some talents. In this way, it happens that the master and supervisor of the academy are here now. You don’t need to go to the academy anymore, just take the exam here. I’ll give you a question, if you can pass, I’ll let you enroll, so that you will have fame, and the crime of colliding with the main hall will naturally be avoided. If you don’t, How about taking you down and sending you to Qianli in Zezhou?"

"It's so ruthless!" Lu Yang trembled when he heard it.

Lu Yangshi was originally lying on the ground, nodding his head to the ground, but when he heard the princess say that he deserved a thousand miles from Zezhou, his eyes went dark, and he fell down immediately, most likely passed out.Thanks to Lu Kaitai's sharp eyesight and quick hands, he immediately supported Lu Yangshi and did not rush into Her Royal Highness.

"Nainai's..." Lu Yang saw his mother fainting because of worry, and felt colic in his heart, and a burst of courage immediately surged in his heart.

"Okay, Your Highness, please come up with a question!" Lu Yang was also annoyed, and glared at Princess Shouyang and the female official, thinking that it was useless to say anything now, anyway, he had to fight it out!

Seeing the anger in Lu Yang's eyes, Princess Shouyang couldn't help being taken aback. The female officer next to her was furious and shouted, "Presumptuous, how dare you..."

Princess Shouyang raised her hand, interrupted the female officer, and asked, "Is this your mother who fainted next to you?"

Now that he was willing to go all out, Lu Yang let go, stood up immediately, and sneered with his chest out: "It's Lu Yang who is unfilial, and his tired parents and sister are worried. Your Royal Highness, please come up with a question. At worst, you will be stabbed for thousands of miles!"

"Bold!"

"Bold!!"

Not only the female officer yelled, but even the head of the Habayashi guard next to the princess also yelled, obviously very indignant at the disrespect in Lu Yang's words, but the Confucian teachers showed surprise and appreciation, and some nodded secretly, Confucianism should be like this, wealth and honor cannot be coddled, poverty and lowliness cannot be moved, and might cannot be subdued. Only with such arrogance can one have a noble and righteous heart.

Lu Yang's character can be rated as excellent now.

Poor Huang Daoyun, who has always stood up for Lu Yang, and Qian Lai, who was still lying on the ground, turned pale with shock. Their bodies trembled slightly. They never thought that Lu Yang would be so stubborn. It was really unexpected that he would have such courage. and.

Princess Shouyang originally planned to let Lu Yang go for Huang Zongxi's sake, but now she was also aroused by Lu Yang's arrogance, and she felt a little unhappy, her expression turned cold, and she took a deep look at Lu Yang, greatly Smile: "Okay, this hall will fulfill you. Listen carefully, there are geniuses in ancient times who can compose a poem in three steps, I will give you grace, and you can compose a poem in seven steps!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire palace, whether kneeling or standing, was crowded with hundreds of people, and all of them changed slightly.

Poetry in seven steps?

How cruel!

Huang Zongxi closed his eyes, but he didn't know what to think. Seeing Huang Zongxi's appearance, Ye Su knew that this old friend had finally been poked into his heels, and immediately twitched his face, wanting to take a step forward, and let go of his face Ask Princess Shouyang to change the subject.

"Brother Ye, wait!" Huang Zongxi opened his eyes and stood in front of Ye Su, not letting him intervene.

"Uh..." The Confucian teachers also noticed Huang Zongxi's performance, and couldn't help being surprised, wondering what Huang Zongxi meant by this?I wondered if I gave up on this disciple, or did I have full confidence in this disciple?

Huang Zongxi didn't have the heart to guess the thoughts of his colleagues at all, and he was also in a complicated mood now.Since accepting Lu Yang as a disciple, he has been observing Lu Yang, and found that after a few days, he has been unable to see through this disciple, let alone how talented he is.

Huang Zongxi also wants to see now how talented the disciple he has accepted is. If he can pass this test, then he will pass on his mantle in the future. Grace, exonerated Lu Yang for his recklessness.

"Seven steps into poetry? Hahahaha..."

Lu Yang almost looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, but this is the Taidao Temple, so it’s not too much, just laughed a few times, thinking about good fortune, thinking that the princess in front of him was going to ask some questions to make things difficult for him, but he didn’t expect to come up with something. The most important thing is such a "difficult" "difficulty".

"Could it be that this kid is too desperate and crazy?" Some courageous civilians looked up one after another, and when they saw Lu Yang laughing clearly, they started to walk, and everyone had the idea of ​​a young man going crazy.

"Seven steps into poetry, small tricks..."

Lu Yang laughed loudly, under the eyes of hundreds of pairs of eyes, he walked four steps in a row, laughed twice, and then took out a new wolf hair that had never been dipped in ink from his bosom, with a surge of meaningful energy. out, pour into the nib.

Immediately, the wolf hair exuded a rosy and timeless air, Lu Yang squatted down, and wrote a poem on the clean and bright marble floor.

Where the stroke of the pen passes, the timeless spirit turns into ruddy "ink" and is written into a poem. During writing, Lu Yang took another three steps back, a total of seven steps.

Lu Yang finished in one go, closed his pen, and stood with his hands behind his back, unyielding.

But seeing the seven steps, the poem is complete!

Please collect it, thank you!
