After Qin Chuan sent Pei Shao away from Bailu Academy, Xie Bald came over and asked, "Senior nephew, do you know the Pei clan in Qingzhou City?"

Qin Chuan thought about it for a long time, but he never had an impression, when he came to Qingzhou City to catch the market before, he only came into contact with some peddlers and pawns, but he knew very little about the readers of Bailu Academy, but he heard that these scholars had a lot of sour and rotten atmosphere, and they did not want to be with others.

Therefore, Qin Chuan shook his head, signaling that he didn't know, and motioned for Xie Bald to continue.

Xie Bald was like a storyteller in the floating door at this moment, taking a big sip of the teapot with a bucket mouth, and almost patted the board and said: "A hundred years ago, Bailu Academy was a place of yearning for scholars all over the world in the entire Long Kingdom. Do you know why?"

Qin Chuan didn't care about this matter at all, and replied with some impatience: "Uncle Shi, don't sell Guanzi, I haven't come to Qingzhou City many times, and I'm still young, how can I know about these secret things hundreds of years ago." If you know, speak quickly and listen to it, or else it's cool over there, so go and stay there. Don't delay me in earning some money. ”

When Bald Xie heard Qin Chuan's disrespectful words, he didn't get angry, he only felt that Qin Chuan had earned thirty taels of silver in just half a pillar of incense. And knowing that the scholar of Bailu Academy is the Pei family of Qingzhou, the jade pendant that he carries with him may be worth a lot of money, for a god of wealth like Qin Chuan, it is too late for Xie Bald to offer, how can he lose his temper with him?

Just as Xie Bald was about to speak with interest, the old Taoist who had been silent for a long time next to him was the first to say: "A hundred years ago, there was such a saying in the literary world, the place where the world's scholars yearn for is the Tai Academy of Longguo, in which there are many people who are capable of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but all the teachers of the Tai Academy are from the Bailu Academy in Qingzhou City, so it is said that entering the Bailu Academy is equivalent to entering the Tai Academy." At that time, all the scholars in Longguo came from thousands of miles to Qingzhou City to study. ”

Hearing Lao Dao's explanation, Xie Bald played with the teapot of the bickering mouth, and was secretly taken aback in his heart, it stands to reason that the behavior of these two people is not like the appearance of Qingzhou people, why are they so familiar with the things of Qingzhou City hundreds of years ago.

Qin Chuan took out the portable jade pendant given by Pei Shao, and found that in addition to the slight temperature on it, the quaint Qingzhou Pei family was indeed written on the back, looking at some mottled traces on it, with obvious pulp, it was obviously an ornament that was played with and worn by generations. It's just that for some reason, among the jade pendants that should be verdant, there is still a little blood red in them.

A closer look around reveals an inscription from an unknown source, as well as a moire decoration of unknown origin. Qin Chuan just glanced at it again, this jade pendant seemed to be natural, he really didn't know where the blood-colored thing got in, or was it that before the jade pendant was carved, this blood-colored thing already existed?

"Then what does this White Deer Academy have to do with the Qingzhou Pei Clan?" Qin Chuan asked puzzledly, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Lao Dao's words.

At this moment, the New Year is approaching, the pedestrians on the street outside Baiyunguan are bustling, the rich family members who drive the carriage are blocked on the street and it is difficult to walk an inch, some small merchants and hawkers along the street are carrying the load, shaking the rattle, selling some ordinary things, several doormen of Baiyunguan smile from time to time to greet all kinds of people who come and go, etc., a few handsome girls wear auspicious clothes, and buy door gods, spring couplets and other things in front of the stalls.

Seeing that Qin Chuan didn't know the meaning of his words, Lao Dao also pretended to be angry and said: "Rabbit cub, are you really stupid or fake stupid, you have to say it so clearly." Entering Bailu Academy is equivalent to entering Tai Academy. And this person who entered the White Deer Academy, Qingzhou Pei's accounted for about half, and this was not by virtue of the door of power, but by virtue of real ability. Therefore, at that time, half of the officials in the Longguo Temple were Qingzhou Pei's, plus the protégés of 7788 and others, it can be said that Qingzhou Pei's can influence the meaning of the saint. From the election of the temple, to the miscellaneous taxes, and even the selection of border officials who defend the territory and expand the territory, you can see the figure of the Pei family in Qingzhou. The so-called wealthy giants and families in the world, but the Pei family in Qingzhou is also. ”

Qin Chuan was still holding the jade pendant in his right hand, with his hands in his cuffs. I probably understood that the Pei clan in Qingzhou was powerful at the beginning of the Long Kingdom, and could influence the direction of the temple and affect the situation at the border, but why did the Pei clan today fall to the point of selling the ancestral jade pendant to others?

Seeing Qin Chuan in a daze, Lao Dao also continued beside him: "Seeing him rise up a tall building, seeing him feasting guests, seeing his building collapse. Bailu Academy has become a place of yearning for scholars in Longguo, and it is unthinkable that it will become what it is today after a hundred years. It is said that there was a head of the Pei family in Qingzhou, who conspired with the prince to seize the throne, so he was seized of his title and beheaded all over the house. The former Qingzhou Pei family is now just a broken aristocrat in the eyes of ordinary people, and Bailu Academy has also been implicated. If it weren't for a coincidence, it would be difficult for this Pei Shao to gain fame, after all, for the temples of Longguo, Qingzhou Pei's family is a taboo name, and it will not be talked about on the initiative by others. ”

"The jade pendant in your hand was made when the Pei clan in Qingzhou was in power, and every descendant of the family had one at that time, but with the sin of that time, no one dared to keep this thing, pawned it in the pawnshop, or left it somewhere. Many people of the Pei family in Qingzhou fled to other places, or survived incognito. From this point of view, this Pei Shao is indeed a branch of the Pei clan in Qingzhou. Until today's Holy Enthronement Amnesty World, this Qingzhou Pei family can return here without hiding his name, and he can finally enter Bailu Academy, or he can enter the capital to take the exam, but things are not people, Qingzhou Pei's family has fallen to the dust, and it is difficult for Bailu Academy to regain its former fame, dust to dust, earth to earth, eternal reincarnation, who can say clearly?"

The one who was stunned was Xie Bald, who had been setting up a stall here for decades, so he naturally heard about the old things of the Pei family in Qingzhou, but he didn't know who the two people in front of him were, and he actually knew why the Pei family in Qingzhou was full of such secret things.

Qin Chuan was not as dumbfounded as Xie Baldzi, but he felt that everything rose and fell and fell with a certain number, and now after listening to Lao Dao's explanation, he also sighed and said: "I didn't expect that the head of the Pei family in Qingzhou would plot to usurp the throne that day, this is really an unforgivable sin." It's just that so many people have been involved, and many Pei descendants have had a bad fate, and even extinguished the seeds of scholars for decades, otherwise, today's scholars in my Longguo country will not lose to neighboring countries. ”

Qin Chuan said well, since Qingzhou Pei's family was beheaded by the whole family, Bailu Academy was implicated and languished, and many teachers were afraid of getting into trouble, so they fled north and west, and went to Nanyue, Eastern Jin and other countries, so that the literary style of Longguo gradually declined, and when the ten-year covenant was full of flowers, the students of Longguo were all at the bottom, and even lost to some unknown small vassal states, which made today's saints feel extremely blushing. Even some scholars in Longguo said that Tai Academy was in vain and deserved to be a holy place for scholars in Longguo.

Lao Dao heard what Qin Chuan said, but he didn't agree with Qin Chuan's statement: "Hearsay can't be true." Are you really a member of the capital, and all of them are clean?"
