prince attendant

The Dashao dynasty has been established for hundreds of years, and it has been handed down to the present day, and they are all Ming emperors. Speaking of which, one of the most recited things done by the current emperor is the establishment of the Wenzhi Academy.

The so-called dispelling doubts by hearing the Tao is the original intention of helping the poor people in the world to read and write, and serving the country. Six arts are set up in the academy, officials of the current dynasty, and contemporary celebrities teach the students. , all make people yearn for it very much, and in order to promote this form, the Holy Majesty even ordered that all officials in the capital, whose sons are old, must enter the academy to practice.

However, it is not an easy matter for ordinary people to enter the academy, because those who want to enter the academy must first take the exam, which lists very shallow exam questions for a test, if the scores obtained are not enough This is a test of the "ambition" of the students to enter the school. The establishment of the school is a very loss-making thing, so it is only free for students who really want to study, and if they do not pass the exam, they still want to enter the school. Palace, so as many points are missing, as much money will be added. This is another plan for those who "want to make friends with famous officials and scholars".

Therefore, there are many rich and noble families in the academy, and the regulations for entering the academy have been added many times over the years. Today, a rule has been formed. There are four gates in the academy, the east, west, south, north, and the north gate is where the gentleman enters and exits. , the south gate is the place where ceremonies are held and guests are received, while the east and west gates are the places for students to enter and exit, but there are differences. The east gate is the place where the children of aristocratic families and nobles enter and exit. As for the west gate, it is the son of common people. In and out of the place.

A wall in the middle is the same school, but it seems to be separated by a gully. The students of the east gate despise the poverty and wishful thinking of the students of the west gate, but the students of the west gate hate the arrogance and domineering of the students of the east gate. They belong to a famous family But they don't cherish and only know how to have fun. As time goes by, they are in the same situation as fire and water. It's just because fighting is strictly prohibited in the academy, so they communicate with each other more than verbal debates. After the confrontation, he simply ignored him.

Although it is said that they do not like each other verbally, but in fact, Dongmen is always overwhelmed. After all, they are descended from a famous family. No matter in terms of background, etiquette, knowledge, and teacher's preference, Ximen's students are incomparable. , especially after a Xie Jin came out of the east gate, everyone worshiped him very much, Ximen seemed to completely extinguish the flames, obediently admit defeat.

However, just after Xie Jin left the academy, three different people appeared at the west gate, and they directly overwhelmed the east gate.

These three people, one of them, is called Yue Mingguang, and his family is engaged in silk business. His parents spent money to send him in, hoping to make friends with high-ranking officials and dignitaries, so as to add glory to the family business. As for "Confucianism and Buddhism", which one is the way to be a human being, I lost three teachers in a row, and finally succeeded in stunning a great Confucianist, and was almost kicked out, but somehow, I stayed in the end, but never again. No one dared to argue with him, so he was named "Ximen Iron-toothed Great Sage."

The second one is named Yan Qinghu, this is an extraordinary talent, all subjects are easy for him, every time the unified examination is No. Leaving the school in one step, otherwise I really don't know which of them is more talented, and because of this incident, the students of Dongmen and Ximen had many quarrels, but the person concerned smiled slightly, completely unaffected, and was named "Ximen Wenquxing". official"

The last one is a young flower seller, named Mu Qing, and his character is Ruyu. He neither has any ideas that are so stubborn that they cannot be cured, nor does he have any outstanding features. No matter how you say it, it seems that he is not worthy of being called. Remember, but he's still pretty famous.

Because this person is "the number one peacemaker in Wendao Xuegong." This sentence means that no matter who it is, no matter what kind of anger it harbors, after being with him for a while, it will be strangely relieved.

He has a good relationship with everyone, but his relationship with everyone seems to be very weak, because it is difficult to see him outside of the school, and the only thing he knows about him is that he is a "seller" at home. Flower" such a label.

Because every time he went to the academy, he would put one or two flower branches in his arms in the vase in the classroom. When others asked him, he would say

"My family sells flowers. If you want to buy flowers, you can come and discuss with me."

When he spoke, he had a gentle smile, his eyes were as gentle as the moonlight at night, people couldn't help but get close to him, and they heard that he was a flower seller, so they thought he must be a very poor person, When he wanted to save him, he was very humbly rejected. Only Yan Qinghu, who was not in harmony with common sense, was able to enter his world, and was then taken to the front of the mountain outside Chengyang. According to the legend, the Tingyun Mountain, which is closely related to the current prince, is full of flowers and trees, which can't be seen at a glance.

When the three stopped at the foot of the mountain, looking at the mountains in front of them always felt a little unreal.

Yue Mingguang says

"Ruyu, your family is on duty on this mountain, so you say you are a flower seller?"

Mu Qing shook her head slightly, since she wants to be friends, there is no need to hide some things, so she said sincerely

"When I say I'm a flower seller, I mean that Tingyun Mountain is under my management. The Tihua Courtyard in Beijing has my name engraved on the seal."

Tihuayuan—it is indeed a place to sell flowers, but the people who buy flowers are celebrities from all walks of life, high-ranking officials and nobles, and what they sell are flowers, but they are not flowers.

Yue Mingguang's family once wanted to do business. The other party was a businessman from a foreign land. He brought foreign land and its soft fabrics. Many merchants wanted to sign a contract with him, but the businessman wanted a transparent snake. Only those who caught this kind of snake were able to sign a contract with him. At that time, everyone had no choice but to advise Yue Mingguang's parents to go to the Tihuayuan in the city to buy enough flowers, and then took the opportunity to say something like this requirements to obtain the desired results.

Believe it or not, Yue Mingguang's parents went to Tihuayuan, and finally spent 1000 taels to buy flowers. Five days later, the only thing delivered to Yue's family was a pot of crabapple flowers and a box. An anesthetized, transparent snake.

Yue Mingguang opened his eyes wide, looking at the people in front of him, he really couldn't connect him with the Tihuayuan, which his parents praised and admired all day long, until he followed up the mountain, and the people on the mountain made way for them, and Called Mu Qing to say "Young Master" to believe this fact, and then couldn't help but say

"You should save me..."

Mu Qing couldn't help laughing and said

"Master Mingguang, don't confuse your eyes with these extraneous matters."

And when these three people mixed together, the scenery of the west gate completely overshadowed the scenery of the east gate.

Blue sky and white sun, gentle breeze.

The Wendao Academy, which has always been very lively, was very deserted today. When Mu Qing rushed to the academy, he felt something was wrong. When he entered the courtyard where he practiced and entered the classroom, he found that there was only one person chanting sutras. When the sky became brighter, I finally realized what was wrong.

He walked to the wall, carefully looked at the hours listed on the wall, and said suspiciously

"Strange, isn't there a class today? Why is there no one?"

Yue Mingguang opened his eyes and looked at him, saying

"Am I not human?"

Mu Qing turned around and walked in front of him, saying

"Of course you are human, I mean, there is no class today, what about other people?"

Yueming Guangdao

"Don't you know what day it is?"

Mu Qing went through all the solar terms and festivals in her mind, and then said with certainty

"do not know."

Yue Mingguang clicked his tongue and sighed.

"Teachers often say that Qinghu and you are the most proud students, but now the most proud students don't remember to teach, isn't it very chilling."

Mu Qing: ...

Why does he always know some people who like to talk nonsense? Fortunately, he is very experienced in dealing with such people, Mu Qing said

"If you don't tell me, I'll ask other people."

After finishing speaking, he stood up and was about to leave when Yue Mingguang's voice came over.

"Today is the day when General Huan Xin returns to the city. It's a day off. Everyone went to watch the general's demeanor."

Huan Xin?

Mu Qing was a little puzzled at first, and then she came to understand. His Royal Highness said that there was chaos at the border a few days ago. Huan Xin led a pair of elite soldiers to raid the enemy camp, beheaded a very important general of the enemy, and directly frightened the soldiers of the two armies. In the situation of stale confrontation, the Holy Majesty said three good words in the early court, and Zhu Bi's criticism of the youth's courage was earth-shattering, and he was a real hero. He was named General Zhenying, and he was rewarded a lot. Even more vigorously, the enemy who directly fought was retreating steadily, and everyone in the government and the opposition praised it. His Highness said that Huan Xin would return to Chengyang in a few days, but he didn't say when, and Mu Qing didn't remember it, but he didn't expect it to be today. up.

Then Mu Qing said

"Since they are all going, why don't you go?"

Yue Mingguang said "Amitabha", and then said very calmly

"Meditate freely, am I the kind of person who will join in the fun?"

Mu Qing hesitated and said

"do not you?"

say again

"Could it be that you only remembered this after you arrived at the academy?"

Yue Mingguang: ...

"Ha - Ruyu is really smart, she can guess right."

Yan Qinghu's voice came from outside, Mu Qing turned his head to look, and saw him walking over with a bag of things and three white porcelain bottles, and then said

"Things are ready, let's go."

Mu Qing was even more puzzled

"Why are you still here?"

Yan Qinghu smiled and said

"Of course it's because I have to wait for you—I knew that you would never remember going to meet General Huan Xin today, so I have to wait for you to come and then tell you about it."
