Chapter Twelve: Tianfu Academy!

In the Phantom Mansion, after the little guy who led the way for Li Yiqi was slapped by Steward Zhao more than a dozen times, he did not turn around and returned to the back kitchen, but quietly came to a hidden room like a secret room.

"Master, the little one failed"

The little guy knelt on one knee, his head bowed, his voice trembling, and he didn't dare to look directly at the figure sitting at the sandalwood table in front of him.

"Oh, why?"

The figure's voice was heavy, majestic, and hoarse, sounding like a burly and powerful man.

“......”

The little guy lowered his head, extremely nervous in his heart, but he knew that if he didn't answer, the consequences might be even more serious, so he gritted his teeth, knelt on his knees, kowtowed, and said, "The little one doesn't know why, he seems to see what the master meant, and asked me to bring a message to the master." ”

"What?"

He said that if the master wanted to see him, he should come forward himself, and there was no need to provoke others by such means...... Makes people laugh. After the little guy finished speaking, he knelt on the ground, his body trembling.

"Hehe, interesting. ”

The figure laughed twice, imperceptibly touched the white jade wrench on the thumb of his right hand, was silent for a moment, as if thinking, and after half a sound, he waved his hand lightly: "It's nothing to do with you, go down." ”

"Yes, the little one. The little guy responded, relieved. Just about to leave, but unexpectedly, the figure behind him waved his sleeves, and a bloody light splashed out from the neck of this little guy.

"Clean up. ”

As soon as the words fell, two figures outside the door immediately walked in respectfully, and without saying a word, began to deal with the smell of blood in the room.

......

"Boy, who are you?"

The young man in the green shirt on horseback looked at Li Yiqi with a curious expression, his expression was proud, his eyes were like electricity, and his gaze fell on the person's body with some pressure.

Li Yiqi glanced back at the other party, and his heart shook slightly: "Gu Qianyang!"

In the Phantom Mansion, Li Yiqi noticed Gu Qianyang, although he only cultivated Wendao in the previous life, he had also heard of the name of this extremely prestigious prince of the Shangjing City, but he didn't have the opportunity to see it.

Tang Qi had also quietly introduced to him before, if all the princes and nobles in the capital were ranked, this Gu Qianyang would probably be able to rank in the top twenty.

Shangjing City is the Imperial City of Great Xia, with a population of 8 million, known as 3,000 famous families, tens of thousands of families, and the disciples of the family who can be ranked in the top 20 of the younger generation, are all real dragons and phoenixes among people.

"Li family, Li Yiqi. ”

Although he felt the overflowing martial arts pressure on Gu Qianyang's body, Li Yiqi still looked indifferent, no matter what, in Great Xia, except for the royal family, the Li family had never bowed their heads to anyone.

Gu Qianyang's face changed slightly, and he seemed to be a little shocked: "The Li family ...... The grandson of the Nine Princes?"

After saying that, the martial arts power of the Qi Sea Realm on his body dissipated instantly, and his gaze at Li Yiqi had a trace of solemnity, and he hugged his fists and said, "In the ancient Qianyang." ”

"I know, the son of Gu Yuan, the general of the forbidden army, has been admired for a long time. Li Yiqi smiled slightly, and while clasping his fists and saluting, he looked at the other party carefully.

Feeling the invisible aura on the other party's body, Li Yiqi was slightly surprised: "This Gu Qianyang has such a strong sense of power, it is worthy of coming out of the dragoon forbidden army, and it is different from the ordinary generals on the battlefield, no wonder in the capital, many children of the family dare not easily provoke this person." ”

He had seen many generals in the Annan Protector Army, and those people were even more bloody and murderous. However, the power and majesty are far less powerful than the generals of the Dragoon Forbidden Army, after all, the Dragoon Forbidden Army guards the Great Xia Palace and the Son of Heaven of the Ninety-Five.

Of course, at the same time that Li Yiqi was looking at Gu Qianyang, Gu Qianyang was also observing the thin young man in the carriage.

"I heard that there is only one grandson left in the Jiugong lineage, and he doesn't leave the house on weekdays, is that him?" Gu Qianyang's heart moved, and a light flashed through his eyes.

He could feel that Li Yiqi didn't have the slightest breath of martial arts on his body, just like an ordinary person, he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "It seems that the storm in the DPRK a few days ago was caused by him, and sure enough, as rumored, he doesn't know martial arts......"

Thinking like this, Gu Qianyang's gaze at Li Yiqi seemed to reveal a trace of regret and regret.

"Brother Gu, I don't know what you're looking for me?" Li Yiqi smiled, wanting to know the other party's intentions.

"Haha, it's nothing, I just want to see who can take that Princess Loulan away. The corners of Gu Qianyang's mouth hooked up an arrogant smile.

"Brother Gu misunderstood, I can't take that Loulan princess away. Li Yiqi shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Hmph, don't tell me it's not you but him who is fiddling with that toy on the second floor. A gleam flashed in Gu Qianyang's eyes, and he raised the horsewhip and pointed at Tang Qi on the side.

Li Yiqi sighed in his heart, since he was still seen, he simply admitted it generously: "Brother Gu has good eyesight......

"If it's really you, since that's the case, I'm curious, why don't you go up and try it and see if you can unlock the treasure of Loulan Kingdom?" Gu Qianyang's eyes showed a trace of doubt, and asked, "Don't you want to marry that princess who is like a celestial?"

"That's right!" Tang Qi on the side clenched his fists and shouted in his heart.

"I'm not interested, if Brother Gu has thoughts about that princess, it is better to come back tomorrow. Li Yiqi smiled slightly and said indifferently.

Hearing this, Gu Qianyang shook his head and sighed twice: "No, I can't get that thing anyway." ”

"However, I believe that what Lao Tzu can't get, there is no young master in the entire Shangjing City who can do it by his own means. ”

After that, Gu Qianyang's eyes flashed, he laughed, threw out the horsewhip in his hand, and the dragon horse under his crotch turned over on all fours, bringing up dust and disappearing into the vast night.

Looking at Gu Qianyang's departing back, Li Yiqi smiled helplessly and said in a low voice: "What a madman." ”

"Yes, those princes and princes in the capital all say that he is sick here. Tang Qi stretched out his hand and pointed at his head, his face grim.

Although he is also a well-known gentleman in Shangjing, but in the face of a proud son of heaven like Gu Qianyang, he also does not dare to provoke, the power of the Tang family is only in the civilian officialdom of Great Xia, and he has no influence in the army, especially the forbidden army.

"I want to make friends with this person...... Li Yiqi's eyes moved slightly, and he had some thoughts in his heart.

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Tang Qi: "Brother Tang, it's not early, I'll go back first." ”

......

The next day, early in the morning, Li Yiqi took the carriage of the Li Mansion to the Tianfu Academy.

Three days have come, and his health is almost fine, so it is reasonable to go back to school. Moreover, he had to come for a reason.

The literary style of Daxia is at its peak, there are tens of millions of scholars in the world, Kyushu in the Central Plains, and there are palaces and academies everywhere. In Shangjingcheng, there are four university palaces and seventy-two academies, the most famous of which is the Tianfu School Palace, which is headed by one of the three princes of the past dynasties. Tianfu Xue Palace is located in the northwest of Shangjing City, not too far from the palace, which shows that its status is prominent. The princes and nobles of Great Xia, and even some royal disciples were basically sent to the Tianfu Academy to study after they reached the age of ten.

The curriculum of Tianfu Academy is majored in Confucian classics, and the practical aspects include finance, millet control, water conservancy, industrial construction, etc., and the imperial history, law, Mingde, and historical records are in the aspect of official affairs...... For a thousand years, the Tianfu Academy did not know how many talents it had sent to the Great Xia Dynasty.

The area of Tianfu School Palace is very large, the houses in the School Palace are next to each other, the eaves are warped, and there is no lack of Lang reading aloud, which makes people yearn for it. The layout of the school palace is also extremely elegant, carved railings and jade buildings, flowers and green trees, rockeries and yin sprouts, all of them, and even a man-made river.

Although I don't know how many times it has been renovated, I can still feel the smell of history in the air here, and at the same time, it is extremely elegant and quiet, revealing an elegant atmosphere.

In the school palace, on a path paved with bluestone slabs, Li Yiqi looked at the familiar scene in front of him and sighed with emotion in his heart. In the last life, he buried his mind here, except for the Li Mansion, the Tianfu School Palace is the place he is most familiar with, but unfortunately......

"It's such a great place, it's just that I won't be here anymore in this life. ”

Li Yiqi's eyes flashed, and he sighed secretly in his heart, and walked along a path in one direction: "Let's go meet Lu Gong first, that matter, I really can't do it without his help." ”

In the depths of the school palace, in front of a small thatched hut covered by a plum blossom forest.

An old man who looked to be over the age of old was holding an ancient book in his hand and reading it intently.

The old man has a loose posture and crane bones, his beard and hair are white, but his eyes are extremely bright, his eyes are sharp, and he is wearing an old gray-white Confucian robe, revealing a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere on his body.

In the distance, Li Yiqi, dressed in a white Confucian robe, walked quickly, walked to the front of the thatched hut, he glanced at the situation inside, then stopped, and waited quietly outside.

"Come in. ”

Soon after, an old voice came from inside, with a sense of silence and indisputability.

Hearing this, Li Yiqi took a deep breath and walked in.

"Student Li Yiqi, meet the teacher. ”

Walking in front of the old man, Li Yiqi bowed deeply with the courtesy of Confucian teachers and students.

The old man glanced up at Li Yiqi, a smile appeared on his old face, stretched out his finger and pointed to a futon placed on the ground on the side, and said casually:

"Sit. ”

Li Yiqi was helpless in his heart, but he still sat cross-legged beside the old man safely, because the old man was also sitting on a futon at this time.

The old man in front of him is named Lu Gong, and his identity is a little mysterious, but he is Li Yiqi's teacher.

Li Yiqi has been in the school palace for six years, and he doesn't know the name of Lu Gong, but he only knows that those senior gentlemen in the school palace also have to perform disciple gifts when they see Lu Gong, and there are even rumors that Lu Gong and the Taifu of the current dynasty are from the same family, and the two are brothers.

"Teacher, you're getting old, the weather is getting colder, and you don't have to bake the stove fire, why are you still sitting on the ground?" Li Yiqi felt the coldness under his buttocks, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Lu Gong glanced at Li Yiqi and said with a leisurely smile: "Are you cold, if it's cold, sit in the house." ”

"Don't dare, the student took sick leave for three days, and when I go back to the school palace today, I will come and talk to you first. Li Yiqi smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Okay, got it. Lu Gong nodded, his attention still on the ancient book in his hand.

"What is the teacher looking at?" asked Li Yiqi with some curiosity.

He glanced at the ancient book, carefully looked at the contents on it, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, and said in surprise: "Twelve Strategies!"

"Hehe, that's right. Lu Gong nodded.

"Why did the teacher look at the soldiers' books?" Li Yiqi couldn't help asking.

Confucianism pays attention to generosity and treats people, and has always been disgusted with the way of killing, but he didn't expect that this ancient book in the hands of Lu Gong turned out to be a volume of the art of war.

"If you have nothing to do, just flip through it. Lu Gong sighed, and a deep worry flashed in his old eyes.

Closing the book, Lu Gong raised his eyes to look at Li Yiqi, his eyes revealed a wisdom that saw through people's hearts, and said with a smile: "What's the matter with you?"

Coming into contact with this gaze, Li Yiqi's heart fluctuated, he knew that he couldn't hide it from the other party, so he had to respectfully say: "Teacher, the student wants to know if the quota of the ancestor worship in Qianling Mountain this year is full?"

"Sommelier ......"

Lu Gong's expression was indifferent, and he glanced at Li Yiqi with deep meaning.

"Yes. ”

Li Yiqi lowered his head and looked extremely respectful.

"I heard Wen Yuan say that the Taimiao side has been selected. Lu Gong's faint voice did not contain any emotional fluctuations, as if he was just stating a fact.

Hearing this, Li Yiqi's face changed slightly, but he lowered his head and didn't show it.

The wine attendant is, to put it bluntly, an apprentice of the wine sacrifice.

Those who can serve as sacrificial wine are all the great Confucians of the Taimiao Ancestral Hall selected by the Ministry of Rites, and the sacrificial wine attendants are equivalent to the role of the honor guard, and they only need to honestly hold the salute and festival staff at the time of the sacrifice, and stand there for half a day.

The identity of the sacrificial wine attendant does not require any requirements, as long as he is familiar with the two sacrificial texts of "Rites and Chapters" and "Taishang", although he will still go through a certain selection, but this is Li Yiqi's only chance to get close to the ancestral tomb of the royal family.

Hearing that Gong Lu said that the quota of the sacrificial wine attendants was full, Li Yiqi gritted his teeth, forcibly made his face look normal, raised his head, and said respectfully: "In this case, the student will retire." ”

Lu Gong seemed to notice something, his eyes moved slightly, and he said with a smile: "Slow, it's rare to have free time today, talk to the teacher." ”

"What does the teacher want to say?" asked Li Yiqi quietly, but his expression was extremely respectful. When it comes to the people he respects, except for his grandfather Li Jiu, it is the old man in front of him.

"Tell me why you suddenly wanted to be a sacrificial sommetry. Lu Gong's voice was old, but it was straightforward.

“......”

Li Yiqi's face was slightly pale, and he struggled a little in his heart.

In the middle of the ring, Li Yiqi raised his head suddenly, with a complicated expression, and said, "Teacher, do you remember a story that the student once told you......

"Story?"

Lu Gong thought about it, nodded indifferently, and said with a smile: "Are you talking about the story you told when I accepted you as a disciple?" ”

Li Yiqi nodded, and spit out two words generously and forcefully: "Exactly." ”

"Well, yes, the old man remembers that the story was quite vivid, whimsical, and interesting. The old man also wondered if he would write it as an anecdote and pass it on. ”

Lu Gong bowed slightly, stroked his white beard, and his eyes flickered: "The old man remembers that the story is about...... A little girl was reincarnated into a common family with the memories of reincarnation in another world, right?"

"Yes, I didn't expect the teacher to remember it now. Li Yiqi said softly, revealing a complex meaning in his tone.

This story is that when he first entered the palace, he saw the old man's apprenticeship, and the time was six years ago.

Li Yiqi tells the story of a girl who traveled to the Great Xia Dynasty and was reincarnated in a common family with the memories of her previous life belonging to another world...... However, in fact, it was not a little girl who crossed over, but a boy, and after being reincarnated, it was not in an ordinary family, but in the dignified family of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Li Yiqi remembered that when he first told this story to Lu Gong, Lu Gong listened to it with relish, laughed from time to time, and bluntly said that this story was very interesting.

Because Lu Gong didn't know at that time that the reason why this story could be described so vividly by a ten-year-old naughty boy was precisely because it was not just a simple story, but a real story that happened to Li Yiqi himself.

It's just that when I told the story, I changed some key places.

"Why did you suddenly tell that story?" asked Lu Gong with a calm expression and quietly.

Li Yiqi's face changed slightly, he raised his head, his breathing was a little short, he looked at his teacher, and said in a condensed voice:

"Teacher, the student wants to tell you another story today!"
