Chapter 59: This child is too difficult for me to teach

A train convoy slowly stopped at the foot of Qing Yun Mountain, and in the luxurious carriage, the eldest princess stepped down on a small ladder and climbed the mountain surrounded by her soldiers.

The mountain wind came gently, caressing her robed skirt and hair, and the noble and cold temperament of the Rapunzel met the wind and squinted her clear eyes.

She saw an old gentleman with white hair in a gazebo on the mountainside, who was sitting at his desk, and across from him was a young child.

Next to the young boy was a young girl with her head bowed down doing women’s red, with a stunning posture.

The old gentleman said in a deep voice, “How many times have I told you to hold your pen in a proper position.”

WIZARD: “Got it sir.”

Old man: “Then change it back.”

WIZARD: “Change what?”

“That’s just it, I won’t write today, so follow me and recite the Three Character Classic.” The old gentleman sighed, then cleared his throat:

“Man’s nature is good.”

WIZARD: “What is the nature of man?”

Mr.: “Man’s nature is good.”

WIZARD: “People …. nature is good.”

MR: “What do you stop in the middle?”

WIZARD: “I forgot.”

Sir: “Come again, man’s nature is good.”

WIZARD: “What is the nature of man?”

Mr. Frantic.

Outside the pavilion, the eldest princess couldn’t help but smile, her eyes as clear as ice mirrors swirled with laughter, and in a flash of living color, the jade beauty came to life.

Recognizing the Princess, the old gentleman immediately rose and bowed respectfully, “Greetings to the Princess.”

The noble temperament, cool and stunning Rapunzel nodded slightly, her voice as crisp as an ice cube crashing, “When did the Cloud Deer Academy have more young children.”

The old gentleman twisted his head to signal the sisters to come over to meet him, Xu Ling Yue rose and then bowed, while Xu Lingyin foolishly floated around looking at this woman whose breasts were no different from her mother’s, and whose temperament and appearance were even better.

The old gentleman said awkwardly, “A childish child is rude, the eldest princess is not to blame.”

He is not too anxious, although the Rapunzel is cold and noble, so that people do not dare to offend, but she is a scholar, and her heart is not lost to the children.

The old gentleman went on to say, “The two of you are the family members of the academy’s students, and because of the problems at home, the women were allowed to stay at the academy temporarily.”

Taking refuge…the highly intelligent Rapunzel immediately analyzed the connotations of the words, examined the young girl with unassuming posture and the not-so-smart child, and smiled lightly, “Which scholar?”

She also counts half of the academy students, and knows the rules of the academy, without the nod of the great scholar to agree, it is impossible for the female members of the academy to live in Qingyun Mountain.

Xu Lingyue said in a thin voice, “Family brother Xu New Year.”

She didn’t mention Xu Qi’an because big brother wasn’t a scholar of the academy.

Xu New Year …. The Eldest Princess’ gaze flickered slightly, having investigated Xu Qi’an’s background she immediately recalled the brotherly relationship between the two.

The mastermind behind the tax and silver case is Squire Zhou, and about ten years ago, Xu Qi’an clashed with Squire Zhou’s son in the downtown area ….. The eldest princess looked toward the delicate and clear young girl, her tone gentle: “When did this happen?”

“Almost a decade.” Xu Lingyue said.

He and Caiwei are acquainted with each other, and Caiwei knows that Servant Zhou is involved in the tax and silver case, so it can be known that the mediocre Xuyi will also know about this matter ….. Knowing that he had offended Servant Zhou, sending the female members of his family to the academy would be a response, but wouldn’t it be better to flee Kyoto with the whole family.

Send the women to the academy while the men of the family remain in the capital, so …. What is this planning to plot?

Associated with the trigger of Servant Zhou’s dismissal and enlistment in the army, the Princess narrowed her good-looking eyes, nodded slightly, and led the guards to continue climbing the mountain.

….

Accord!

The eldest princess scrutinized Zhao Shou and was slightly surprised, “After not seeing him for a decade, the dean’s qi was heaven and earth different.”

The former dean was unkempt, with long, florid white hair hanging down and gloom piling up on his brow.

And now he has clear and bright eyes, his intention is condensed but not revealed, and he is radiant.

Zhao Shou didn’t answer positively, and laughed aloud, “The sage said that there is no seniority in learning, and that those who reach the top are the first.”

Learning no matter how old or young reach the first …. He meant that there was someone who could be his teacher who was not very old…was it related to that day when the clear qi of the Temple of Yahya rushed to the sky.

She was very interested in the change of events in the Yasheng Academy, and was inquisitive because it involved the dispute over Confucianism’s dao lineage, and the future pattern of the imperial court.

What really happened that day?

The Yasheng Academy Palace was sealed off and no one was allowed to enter, and the watchman could do nothing about it.

The Princess collected her scattered thoughts, looked out the window at the deep green bamboo forest, sighed: “Dean knows that Servant Zhou was dismissed from his post and confined to the army?”

“For the Da Bong officialdom, this is just the first step in the party dispute kicking off.” Zhao Shou smiled and shook his head, unwilling to talk more, waving his hand and beckoning for a chessboard, saying:

“Li Mu Bai has never played chess since he defeated Wei Yuan three times, and there are not many people in the academy who can talk to Lao Fu hand to hand. Since the Eldest Princess is here today, let’s play a game with my old husband.”

The Rapunzel said helplessly, “Playing chess with this palace, why should Dean humiliate himself.”

….

On the other side, in the attic built adjacent to the cliff.

The three great scholars had just finished their discussion, when the scribe delivered a letter, saying that the eldest princess had visited the academy and had had it handed over.

The Rapunzel said in her handwritten letter that recently a masterpiece has appeared in the capital, the capital’s readers are talking about it, and the State Prince’s Eunuch holds it up as the top poem in the past hundred years, which overwhelms the Cloud Deer Academy’s poem of sending off.

Moreover, compared with the farewell poem, this “top poem in the past hundred years” is from the Education Department, a talented man and a beautiful woman, the story is more interesting and more widely spread ….

At the end, the Rapunzel attached this poem that had exploded in popularity in the circle of readers in the capital in just a few days.

The old man is in seclusion for a few days, and the capital city has produced a stunning masterpiece? Zhang Shen gazed to appreciate the attached poem.

Shadow Plum Pavilion for Floating Fragrance

All of the flowers fall alone, occupying all the flavor to the small garden.

The water is clear and shallow with sparse shadows, and the dark fragrance floats in the dusk of the moon.

Zhang Shen was like a statue, silent for a long time, he gently put down the paper in his hand and looked at Li Mu Bai and Chen Tai who were drinking tea and chatting.

“Pure Jing, You Ping, take a look at this.” Zhang Shen said.

The serious look he suddenly displayed made the two great scholars freeze, Li Mubai took the paper, quickly swept a glance, and then his eyes sank, fading into a relaxed and easygoing posture.

“Let me see.” Seeing this look on the two men’s faces, Chen Tai reached out and drew the paper, reading it once and then savoring it for a long time.

Chen Da Ru gave a long sigh: “Sparse shadow, dark fragrance, two sentences will be the plum’s style of overwhelmingly written, when it is really exquisite mind ah.”

Li Mubai then commented: “Ning Banquet that the world who do not know the gentleman, of course, called the chest of the man with a heroic spirit, but on the far-reaching mood; the words of the beautiful; the charm of the outstanding …. Indeed, the difference is far.”

Zhang Shen sighed as he stroked his beard, “Once this poem was released, it was an unsurpassed masterpiece of plum singing. Who is this Yang Ling with such talent that I have never heard of him?”

Chen Tai re-read the handwritten book, said, “It seems to be a showman from Changle County, in the Department of Education, wrote this poem to give to the flower leader Floating Fragrance ….”

Speaking of which, the tea room quieted down, and none of the three great scholars opened their mouths to speak.

A sour smell festered and filled the air.

Zhang Shen pondered for a long time and said, “I think that we should immediately notify the dean and recruit this Xiucai into the academy. Such a talent should never be buried.”

Chen Tai and Li Mubai readily agreed: “It makes sense.”

……

On this trip to pick up their aunt and sisters, Xu Ru Lao and Xu Ning Yan, as students, first visited their teacher.

The three great scholars happened to finish their lectures, and knowing that their “valued” students were visiting, they simply gathered in the hall to drink tea.

Zhang Shen first glanced at his disciple, whose temperament had changed, and said with satisfaction, “Resignation, it seems that copying the quotes of the sages has benefited you greatly.”

Xu Ruixiang nodded with a burst of sweat.

Li Mubai was surprised, “Copying the quotes of saints helps to step into the Body Cultivation Realm? How come I didn’t realize that.”

Xu Er Lang opened his mouth and finally chose to remain silent.

He did touch the threshold of the Body Cultivation Realm, but that was after seeing the four lines written by his elder brother on the stone tablet.

It’s a subtle process.

But it’s not a good thing to say in public, even if we all know the origin of those four sentences by heart.

After a few sentences of small talk, Chen Tai swept his eyes at Li Mubai and Zhang Shen and said with a smile, “You two live in the capital, do you know that recently the capital has produced a masterpiece. ….. The water is clear and shallow with sparse shadows, and the dark fragrance floats in the dusk of the moon. Absolutely marvelous, absolutely marvelous ah.

“Ning Banquet, although you have poetic talent, don’t be proud of yourself, knowing that the world’s readers are hiding crouching tigers.”

This old piker is just jealous that we have taken a good student …. But this kind of sophisticated words, also can not be refuted. Zhang Shen could only say, “This poem is indeed amazing, Ning Banquet does not need to be more serious with it, singing plums for the ages, it is useless to be more serious.”

Li Mubai nodded: “Although the current readers are missing some aura, there is after all an example, that Yang Ling may not be able to make a second poem. And with Ning Banquet’s poems, it’s highly likely that there will be a third and a fourth in the future.”

Xu New Year glanced at his cousin and said, “This poem was also composed by my elder brother.”
