Chongxian, Qilin, Fengzhi, and Yuntian Academies are listed as the four major academies in the imperial capital of the Eastern Ming Dynasty, among which Chongxian has an official background, and the Begonia Girls' Academy under its name are all public children's schools. There are three left, Qilin is known for its teachers, but all those who are knowledgeable, or not good at socializing, or disdain officialdom, or have no talents, there is always a place here, and the students who teach are naturally more angry. Fengzhi is known for its inclusiveness, and the door of Fengzhi is often open for those who have real talents and real learning, whether they are from poor families, or those who fail to take the Chongxian and Qilin Academy examinations in other places.

The dean of Yuntian Academy is the only one of the four academies who was born as a businessman, and if you want to say the characteristics of this academy, there is only one word: rich.

When he first entered the academy, Jiang Lingxi sniffed for a long time, but he couldn't smell the slightest aroma of books, and in a trance, he thought that he had entered a private club by mistake, which was magnificent.

For this nouveau riche who mainly recruits second-generation students from the local trenches, the students of the other three academies are somewhat disdainful in their hearts, but the dean of the family lives in the body of a businessman with a young soul, and he likes to hold some calligraphy and painting exhibitions when he has time.

There is nothing unusual about this thing itself, even the two families of Qilin and Fengzhi, who have weaker financial resources, may not be able to get a few treasures from the town if they really want to do it, but Yun Tiansheng is in Lu Ziye! What a famous person, calligraphy and painting, lock the target and smash it directly with money. Another rare point is that the dean Zeng Kaixue attaches great importance to discovering folk wizards, and several talented folk calligraphers and painters were discovered and popularized by Yuntian.

Of course, the best thing is that for each exhibition, the college will designate three to five treasures to be placed in the "transfer area", and all visitors can choose one of them they like, and submit a written review to the college within seven days.

Therefore, when it comes to the calligraphy and painting exhibition of Yuntian Academy, even if the students of the other three families refuse it, they will secretly poke and profess to come over in disguise, and the acquaintances they often meet are like underground party connections.

In addition, at this time, the three-year filial piety period of the first emperor has not yet come out, and there is a lot of fun outside, and the sons and brothers who love to visit the ******** on weekdays can't hold back at home, and they will choose to find some pastime here. When Jiang Lingxi and his brother arrived, many people had already gathered in the exhibition hall.

As soon as she entered the hall, Jiang Lingxi glanced at the distribution map of the exhibition area a few times, and then pulled Brother Jie to the "transfer area".

There are five calligraphy and paintings hanging in the transfer area, two of which are calligraphy, although the signature is from the same person, the handwriting is very different. With Jiang Lingxi's shallow common sense, one looks like regular script, and the other looks like ...... Wild grass? Jiang Lingxi couldn't help but complain: "This person either has a split personality, or he has a ghostwriter." ”

Although Jiang Linjie didn't understand it very well, he still explained to his sister according to his own understanding: "Since his debut, this person has been writing with both hands at the same time, Tang Kai in his left hand and a calligraphy in his right hand, which is a little famous in the calligraphy circle." ”

Jiang Lingxi pouted, this kind of technique, she had seen a showman on the pedestrian street before.

Turning his gaze to the remaining three paintings, one is an ink landscape, and one is a picture of a hundred officials in court, Jiang Lingxi's attention seems to be pulled by something, quickly skipping the first two, and finally firmly locking on the last flower and bird.

She didn't even have time to appreciate the artist's technique, but what really attracted her was the signature in the lower right corner of the painting.

Zhan Ying.

Due to the deliberate avoidance of the deity, the name is already a little vague in the existing memory bank, like its owner.

When Jiang Lingxi saw this signature, he suddenly grabbed something, and some pictures quickly flashed in his mind.

It was at such an exhibition that Jiang Linxi, dressed in men's clothes, stood in front of a painting, and a voice asked: "Brother Tai, what does this painting think?" ”

Jiang Lingxi wanted to see the person's appearance clearly, but he only saw Jiang Linxi pulling his lips and smiling, "The technique is there, but the charm is a little lacking." ”

The latter two said something again, and when Jiang Lingxi wanted to hear it clearly, the picture suddenly changed, and Jiang Linxi slowly spread out a picture scroll in his bedroom, revealing the signature in the lower right corner, which was Zhanying.

Jiang Lingxi's heart was tightly grasped by something, and he subconsciously took a few steps forward, as if the closer he got to this painting, the more clues he could collect from the mandarin ducks before his death.

Just as he was in his trance, a not-so-friendly voice suddenly came from behind him, "Miss Jiang's ability to stand here quietly and admire my cousin's posthumous work so quickly is really amazing. ”

Jiang Lingxi reflexively turned her face away, and saw that a handsome scholar was staring at her, as if she was a little hostile.

Jiang Lingxi pondered for a moment at "him", and suddenly smiled: "You girl has good eyesight, and you can see through my female disguise at once." ”

The other party was stunned for a moment, and then snorted coldly: "You don't have to pretend to be a student with me, my cousin is gone, and I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore." ”

Uh, acquaintances?

Jiang Lingxi hurriedly activated the memory bank, and quickly searched for a name from it: Zhanli. In the connection between the deity and Zhan Ying during her lifetime, this girl helped a lot.

"My cousin was famous for painting flowers and birds during his lifetime, and now these are even more masterpieces." Zhan Li stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the pictures of flowers and birds on the wall, with some mockery on his face, "This should be his early work, and it is in response to your comment, 'The technique is there, but the charm is a little lacking'." Rao is so, and now it is also sought after as a treasure. ”

There is a clear pride in her tone, which shows that her relationship with Zhanying is quite close. turned a little in love, bowed his head slightly and sighed: "It's a pity that he just understood something in this regard, and when he was ready to go up to the next level......"

In the end, I was a little choked.

"Tsk, I'm really jealous."

Jiang Lingxi stood in the position of an outsider and said casually, but Zhanli seemed to be stimulated by something, and said a little lost: "God?!" Do you blame heaven for this qiē? Jiang Linxi, has your conscience been eaten by dogs?! ”

Jiang Lingxi was startled, and subconsciously leaned towards Brother Jie'er. Jiang Linjie stepped forward to protect his sister, and said sharply to Zhanli: "You try to yell at my sister again?!" ”

Zhanli was unmoved, and directly skipped him to look at Jiang Lingxi, as if something was crumbling in his heart little by little.

"Heh, life and death go hand in hand, and this life is worth it. Now that my cousin is gone, and you're standing here in good shape, what the hell is that? Yes? What is it?! ”

Jiang Lingxi's brows were tightly locked, and Zhanli's tearful appearance really made her a little broken, this movement had attracted frequent sideways glances from people watching the exhibition nearby, and some even came over to point fingers at them.

Jiang Linjie was a little angry, "Is this woman crazy?" ”

Jiang Lingxi tugged at his arm, "Forget it." ”

"The people of the Zhan family are really more unreasonable than the other." Jiang Linjie glared at Zhan Li, turned around and pulled Jiang Lingxi and said, "Sister, let's go quickly, stay away from this crazy woman." ”

"Jiang Linxi!"

Zhanli seemed unwilling to let her go, and quickly chased after her. In a hurry, he bumped into a swaying young man.

Zhanli was about to open his mouth to apologize, when a male voice that sounded a little smug preemptively said with a bit of mockery and banter: "Yo, isn't this Zhan's?" ”
