Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 758 Today's Xiangfu Academy

Fang Dangyong gritted his teeth and looked back and forth, shook his head and said, "Report to the instructor, I don't know, they covered my head and beat me, and they didn't make a sound, so I can't tell."

Jia Peirui shook his head inwardly, this Fang Dangyong is really honest, or he wants to fight back by himself, how can he not even make a false accusation.In the corner, Xin Ruishan exchanged glances with Wei Ziqi, Gao Debao, and You Hongming proudly.

Jia Peirui had no choice but to ask, "Did you really not see anything?"

"Report to the instructor, I really didn't... didn't see it."

Jia Peirui straightened up, looked up at the roof, and finally his eyes fell on Zhao Shiqiang, "Since we can't find anyone, we can only do this. Except for Fang Dangyong, the whole team ran ten laps of the school field and did two hundred push-ups." Squat down and stand up two hundred times. Zhao Shiqiang has no way to lead the team, so he was removed from the post of team leader, and Fang Dangyong will be the team leader from today."

"Ah!" Xin Ruishan opened his mouth wide and couldn't help making a sound.

Everyone in the room was stunned. Jia Perui ignored them and shouted: "Get dressed and go!"

The two pickets immediately drew out their short wooden sticks, and the people in the room were swaying, and everyone began to dress quickly. Zhao Shiqiang leaned over while putting on clothes and cursed Xin Ruishan in a low voice: "You dogs are the ones who made me suffer. I will kick you to death next time."

During the three months from May to August, except for the complete colonization of the Wa country far overseas, the countries in the land of China were peaceful, and no major incidents happened.Of course, the secret spy war between Xiangfu Kingdom, Liao Dynasty and Song Dynasty became more and more fierce, and people bleed to death every day.

In particular, Xiangfu Country's weapons and equipment production base has developed a heavy treasure screw, which has created a set of hydraulic abrasives, which has increased the speed and reduced the cost of Xiangfu Country's weapons and armor by a hundred times.The news was eventually leaked out, causing Song and Liao to send a large number of spies to Xiangfu in order to steal the heavy treasure and the blueprints related to the heavy treasure, in order to destroy the hydraulic mold, hijack the craftsmen involved in it.Naturally, the Security Department of Xiangfu Country was not to be outdone. Hu Sanguang also sent a large number of spies to infiltrate the two countries. While secretly developing and strengthening his forces, he also inquired about all useful information.

However, during this period, there was also one thing that spread throughout the world, that is, Xiangfu Kingdom fixed the July [-]th day of the year, and Xiangfu Kingdom announced to the world that Xiazhou was changed to Xiajing.

...

...

Time has entered August, and Xu Xuan has devoted himself to the school affairs of Xiangfu College for the past four months. He has to give lectures in person every day and invite teachers everywhere.Relying on the powerful intelligence capabilities of the Ministry of Security, all those who have made achievements in natural science or the field of investigation in Xiangfu Kingdom, no matter what their status is, even tomb robbers and Taoist priests who are dedicated to alchemy in the mountains, are all invited to the academy by means of coercion and lure. .

At the same time, Xu Xuan also has to manage the students. It can be said that he has to manage a lot of things every day, and he is exhausted.Fortunately, Ye Chen has always attached great importance to Xiangfu Academy, and has always had part of his eyes and thoughts on Xiangfu Academy, so there are many who are willing to serve as Xu Xuan's deputy. Over the past few months, I have become more and more familiar with various affairs or businesses of the school.

On the south side of Xiajing City, what is different from four months ago is that there is an additional level road leading to the official road in the south. The width of this level road can accommodate two parallel carriages, which is worthy of the name of Xiangfu Kingdom. The first cement road was half a month earlier than the cement road in front of the weaponry production base.Although it is not as paved with pieces of bluestone as in the imperial city, it is almost as light as a lesson, and it is not as smooth as the official road, but the manpower, material resources, and financial resources spent are much less, and it is inevitable that there will be no official road in rainy days. muddy.

It was raining lightly on this day, and it was the third day of the eighth month of the year in Xiangfu Kingdom. In the northwest, rainy days at this time could already feel a little chilly.A young man with a tall and straight figure and a vicissitudes of life, wearing a blue robe under a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat, with a long sword on his waist, is riding a tall maroon horse, walking slowly on this cement road.

Not far from here is the famous Xiangfu State, and the reputation has spread to Song State, Liao State, and even Xiangfu College in Dali and Korea.When I was studying at Luoyang Taiyi Academy, the young man in green robe heard that this avenue was very lively with people coming and going. When the students talked about it, although most of them were sarcastic, there were also a few people who were fascinated.

The young man in Qingpao was born in a family that had inherited martial arts for hundreds of years silently. He practiced martial arts since he was a child, but he left his hometown of Chuzhou at the age of 15 and traveled around the world. At the age of 19, he suddenly became interested in reading and studying knowledge.After finding out that there is Taiyi Academy in Luoyang, which is the number one academy in the world, I went to Luoyang and studied at Taiyi Academy for seven years. There was something wrong with the exercises he just practiced, which led to a serious illness, and he didn't even have the chance to go to Beijing.Although he is skilled in martial arts, he is unwilling to take the martial arts exam. It is still early before the next provincial exam, and he happens to come to Xiangfu Academy to learn more.It's just that he heard that Xiajing's prices were too expensive, and he hoped that Xiangfu Academy would not be as expensive as Kaifeng City, otherwise he would not be able to live long after all.

Speaking of this Taiyi Academy is not compiled by the author, but does exist.As early as the Northern Wei Dynasty, Songyang Temple was established at the southern foot of Songyue Mountain, and it was renamed Taiyi Temple in Tang Gaozong.During the Tang and Qingtai years after the Five Dynasties, Jinshi Pang Shi gave lectures at Taiyi Temple.Until the reign of Emperor Shizong of Zhou Dynasty, Taiyi Academy was set up here.In the original history, Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi would also give the name Taishi Academy and a "Nine Classics".During the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, he ordered Luoyang, Xijing, to repair and expand it, named it "Songyang Academy", and gave a hectare of school land for school running funds.Sima Guang, Cheng brothers, Fan Zhongyan, etc. all gave lectures in it, and the academy is known as the first of the "Four Academies".

Now that history has been changed by Ye Chen, Zhao Guangyi has died, and the history of Taiyi Academy has changed accordingly. The most important thing is that Xiangfu Academy's Heng Chong was born. I believe that the head of the academy will no longer be other academies or colleges up.

The young man in the green robe was thinking about his own thoughts while walking along the route he had inquired about before.He suddenly heard a voice behind him and turned around to look.

What jumped into view was a carriage and ten knights wearing black cloaks. Judging from the positions of the carriage and the knights, these ten knights were the guards of the people in the carriage.The green-robed youth had just arrived in Xia Jing, so he couldn't tell much, but anyone from Xia Jing would recognize the Ouchi Dark Guard as a knight in a black cloak.

There are two forces in Xiangfu who are directly responsible for the defense of the royal family. In addition to the four thousand black cavalry, there are two thousand dark guards under the command of Lian Jicheng.Since the owner in the carriage has secret guards as guards, even if he is not a member of the royal family, he must have some kind of special relationship with the royal family.

Seeing the carriage galloping towards him under the guard of ten silent knights, the young man in green robe felt the cold and stern aura of these ten guards, especially the cold and vigilant eyes that looked at him in unison. He snapped the reins and moved his horse aside.But the carriage stopped beside him. Someone in the carriage lifted the curtain and asked in a warm voice: "Brother, do you know how far Xiangfu College is?"

The person who asked the question looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a blue robe, but he was young but exuded a sense of calmness and confidence, as well as a convincing look and temperament.

Facing the staring gazes of the ten guards, the green-robed young man kept his expression unchanged, and said with a loud smile, "This young master invited me, and this is my first time going to Xiangfu Academy."

"Oh? On such a rainy day, brother, why don't you get out of the car and go together?" the blue-robed boy warmly invited.

"Thank you for your kindness, sir, but I am used to this kind of weather. Besides, I see that these guards are also walking under the rain." The green-robed young man clasped his fists and thanked.

The blue-robed boy was startled, looked at his guards, and said, "See you again at Xiangfu Academy. Brother, please."

"Then let's go one step ahead." The young man in green robe swung his whip and drove his horse away in the rain.

After one or two sticks of incense, you can see a few mounds with dense fruit forests in front of you. Because of the drizzle, the rain and fog are vast, which is quite quiet.Between the forest hills, one can vaguely see a small lake like emerald green. The drizzle falls on the surface of the lake, which is not less green, and is so clear that you can see small white fishes underwater.Just between the fruit forest and the small lake, there are several cement paths winding in, and I don't know where they lead.Looking up, behind the trees, you can see the roofs of the buildings.

"It's probably here." The green-robed young man thought to himself, "It's really a paradise." In order to show respect, he quickly got off the horse and walked slowly while leading the horse.Enjoy the scenery along the way.After bypassing a few hills and forests, the voice of reading came faintly. He listened carefully, but it was "a gentleman can't ask for food, and can't live in peace. I am eager to learn" That is a sentence in "The Analects of Confucius", but the voice is immature, but it makes the young man in green robe a little puzzled.

Following the sound, the panorama of Xiangfu College gradually came into view.The voice came from a row of red brick houses. Now that it got closer, it became more and more clear. It was clearly the voice of a twelve or thirteen-year-old child reading.The young man in green robe wondered more and more: Could it be that I went to the wrong place?

Cautiously led the horse and walked over, but saw a stone monument standing in front of the red brick building, with the words: "Xiangfu College Affiliated Middle School" written in large characters. After understanding the meaning of this sentence with a frown, the young man in green robe suddenly realized.
