Chapter 16: The Talker
Today, although the grain is expensive and the money is cheap, a hundred taels of gold is not something that most people can take out casually. It is not easy to live in Chang'an with a pen, fun and www.biquge.info pavilion, and a hundred taels of gold can make an ordinary family live a good life for ten years in Chang'an, where every inch of land is valuable!
Soon, all kinds of loud and small conversations began in the lobby, but in private, they all paid attention to Wang Yan's side, intentionally or unintentionally.
Wang Yan didn't seem to notice, and continued to eat the side dishes in front of her leisurely.
She only knows that there will be brave men under the heavy reward!
I saw the person named Yuan San just now stand up, looked at Wang Yan, and asked, "I don't know what my sister-in-law said just now, is it true?" ”
"No jokes." Wang Yan smiled at the corner of her lips, and turned to Lychee and ordered, "You go and get it now." ”
Lychee knew that everyone in the world believed in it, and the young lady also had a big idea, so she simply stopped dissuading it, and took out the hundred gold that she thought was prepared for Xuandu Temple.
Yuan San saw it, his eyes brightened, and he no longer swallowed, and immediately in the hall, he described in detail how Murong came from Jiangnan, how he lived in Sun's mansion, how he did the thing of framing at the princess's banquet, and how he was blamed and abused by Sun's mansion afterwards and committed to his uncle. Because in the end, it is just hearsay, and between word of mouth, it is inevitable that some information will be omitted and distorted, and there are many places that are self-righteous and add fuel and vinegar. Therefore, this Yuan San, the more he talks, the more bizarre it becomes, which makes Wang Yan, who is originally a person in the play, feel even more funny and abnormal.
Wang Yan looked at this Yuan San carefully, and had to admit that this was a good storyteller. The sad part makes people sigh, the funny part makes people laugh, and the resentful part makes people gnash their teeth, and it is so wonderful that people can't stop it!
Finally finished speaking, Yuan San himself still looked a little unsatisfied.
Everyone in the lobby also listened and discussed.
Wang Chang taught Lychee to put the hundred gold in front of him, and exclaimed: "Yuan Langjun is really a talented person!" Don't know where to study? ”
"Student Guozijian is in the second grade of the four subjects." Yuan San straightened his back and said proudly.
As the top university in the country, Guozijian can enter not only the size of his father's position and the strength of his family, but also a person's own cultural cultivation. It is true that there are also students who rely on the powerful forces to enter every day and do not do their jobs, but this Guozijian who advocates the most moral character and style of study, the most noble place in the world, this kind of person can not be accepted by the people in the school even if he enters. Therefore, a real student of Guozijian is still very respectable.
Today's Guozijian has six branches, namely: Guozixue, Taixue, Simenxue, Law, Calligraphy and Arithmetic. Among them, four schools, Taixue, and Guozixue, are the study of Confucian classics and history, and their ranks are increasing in order, with the purpose of taking scholars for the imperial examination; Students of law, calligraphy, and arithmetic specialize in one subject and learn the technical aspect. Students from ordinary families or middle- and lower-class official families will be covered by the state for food and lodging once they are admitted to the Guozijian. Therefore, this is not only a strong academic atmosphere, but also a very good welfare treatment, which is a place that students from all over the world yearn for.
Wang Yan has always longed to go to Guozijian to study, and has the opportunity to communicate with the world's first-class Confucian teachers, or talented students, to speak, ask questions, and read, but unfortunately...... I only hate myself for being a daughter.
Wang Yan smiled and said: "I see, Yuan Langjun is really good." ”
After a refreshing meal, Wang Yan walked out of the Yunlai Restaurant and said to Lychee who was following behind: "You go back and send someone to check who the round-faced man who is at the same table as him and is called the eldest brother by everyone, what is his identity, what his family background is, what things he has done, and even his preferences and habits, all of which are collected for me." Also, don't get too noticed. ”
Lychee was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly agreed. Although she had never done this kind of thing before, she had grown up beside the Xie family since she was a child, and she had seen a lot, and she still knew how to do this kind of thing in her heart.
Facing the sister-in-law sitting leisurely in the car, Lychee looked at her with a look in her eyes that unconsciously felt a little strange, Wang Yan was not as innocent and unsophisticated as she once thought, blindly arrogant, and she was a concubine who was held out up and down the whole house. She acts boldly and methodically, with a sensitive mind but gentle treatment, which is really too different from what everyone in the house thinks.
Wang Yan inadvertently glanced at her, and Lychee hurriedly lowered her head to hide the scrutinizing look in her eyes.
The noise of the East City gradually drifted away, and finally came to the Xuandu Temple.
Most of the emperors of this dynasty like Taoism, so Taoism is very popular, there are several Taoist temples in Chang'an, the largest is this Xuandu Temple, there are often people in the royal family, and even the arrival of the Son of Heaven.
Wang Yan got off the carriage, only to see the ancient pine outside the view, the clouds and mist are shrouded, the flowers and plants inside the view are fragrant, the music is melodious, the environment is elegant, just like the fairy palace.
At the door, there was a little Taoist priest standing with a green scarf and Taoist robe, standing with his hands down.
Wang Yan asked the little Taoist priest about the mysterious Taoist, and the little Taoist priest bowed his head and quietly led Wang Yan and a few people away for a while, and finally stopped in front of a row of rooms that were slightly simple compared to other places, and introduced a few words to the boy who was cleaning outside, and then left.
After receiving the explanation from the little Taoist, the boy nodded, and after sending the little Taoist away, he ignored Wang Yan and the others, and slowly cleaned the ground in front of him.
The lychee and a few guards who followed secretly frowned, Wang Yan was not in a hurry, looked at the dead leaves falling in the cold wind next to her, and knew that this was the famous peach blossom forest in the backyard of Xuandu Temple.
"Come with me."
At last the boy stopped cleaning, put the broom aside, and ordered the princess to follow him.
A trail behind the wing, which is very deserted from the front yard. It is hard to imagine that there is such a remote place in the first Taoist temple of the dynasty, the Xuandu Temple.
The road and stone paths in the forest are still a little muddy after the snow has melted.
The shoes of Wang Yan and the others were already dirty, and the little boy walked with a steady pace in front of him, and a pair of whitewashed green cloth shoes were not stained with dust and mud at all.
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but be shocked, and they all put away their contempt for the boy.
It wasn't until the boy stopped that Wang Yan raised his eyes and saw the two people playing against each other in the depths of the forest.
It's not someone else, it's the monk she saw that day, who called himself Yuan Hui, and the Taoist who called Xuanji.
Wang Yan asked everyone to wait on the side, stepped forward herself, and after respectfully saluting the two masters, she quietly looked at their chessboard.
"Can my sister-in-law understand?" The Yuanhui monk didn't put on a show, and when he saw her coming, he asked with a smile.
Wang Yan shook her head and replied honestly: "I only understand some rules, but I don't know how to change them." ”
