In the early morning of autumn, the sky is high and refreshing, and the air is filled with the sweet fragrance of osmanthus flowers.

Zhong Hao stretched his waist and rubbed his head to his yard.

The pots of golden chrysanthemums that Feng had just bought in the small courtyard also seemed to be in good spirits today, and bursts of floral fragrance came to the face, which couldn't help but make people feel very comfortable.

The pomegranate tree in front of the west wing room swayed gently in the breeze, like a girl dancing, and the pomegranates on the tree were ripe, and they cracked open big openings one by one, as if a happy elf was laughing there.

People are in a good mood and see that all kinds of things are beautiful. Even the "rustling" sound made when the yellow leaves on the pomegranate tree fell one by one, in Zhong Hao's opinion, did not have the feeling of autumn wind, desolation and sadness at all, but felt that the sound was so wonderful.

Yesterday, I came out of the county hall and was dragged by the Gao Deli brothers to the natural residence to wash the dust and eliminate the obscurity. Zhong Hao has been worried and restless in the prison for more than ten days, and now he is finally fine, he is also relaxing his arms, relaxing his mood, and eating and drinking with the Gao Deli brothers, he can't help but drink a little too much, and his head hurts a little early this morning.

"Brother Hao, big lazy worm, you're awake!" Wan'er hasn't seen Zhong Hao for more than ten days, so she is very happy to see Zhong Hao today.

Zhong Hao was also very happy when he looked at Wan'er, and said with a smile: "What time is it now?" ”

"It's almost time. Brother Hao, are you hungry? I'm going to make you soup cakes to eat! ”

Zhong Hao touched his stomach, he was really a little hungry, and said with a smile: "I haven't eaten Wan'er's craft for a long time, so there is Miss Lao Wan'er!" Zhong Hao said and pretended to salute.

"Brother Hao, I hate it! Hee-hee, then you wait, Miss Ben will do it! ”

Under Feng's vigorous supervision and guidance, Wan'er's cooking skills are now growing by leaps and bounds, the noodles are very slippery and strong, the toppings are also very refreshing, and a big bowl of soup cakes is quickly eaten by Zhong Hao.

Zhong Hao wiped his mouth and praised: "Wan'er's craftsmanship has really made great progress!" ”

Wan'er sat at the stone table, holding her cheeks with both hands, and kept watching Zhong Hao eat, listening to Zhong Hao's praise, she couldn't help but feel a little proud.

Zhong Hao was explaining to Wan'er where he had been in the past ten days, when he suddenly heard someone talking outside the courtyard gate.

"This is Brother Zhong Haozhong's house?"

Zhong Hao followed the prestige, and saw a young man standing in the wind of Yushu standing outside the gate of his house, the young man was wearing a azure right brocade shirt, holding a folding fan, the handle of the fan was made of tortoiseshell, quite exquisite, and the dress looked quite graceful, but Zhong Hao did not know it.

"Under Zhong Hao, I didn't ask for advice...... Who is Childe? ”

"Under Cui Ye, the grass word is humble!"

When Zhong Hao heard that this handsome guy's surname was Cui, he couldn't help but think of Cui Lao who played chess on the bank of Nanyang. Yesterday, Zhong Hao had already heard Gao Deli say: Cui Jiu, the steward of Cui Mansion, once went to the natural residence to inquire about Zhong Hao's situation, and said that they could rest assured that Zhong Hao would be fine. Zhong Hao asked Gao Deli about the Cui family, and when he inquired, he learned about the Cui family's great reputation.

Come to think of it, if Du Dazhui can tell the truth of the matter despite the threat of County Lieutenant Zheng, and let the state government reject County Lieutenant Zheng's verdict, these things must be the result of the Cui family's efforts behind the scenes. Zhong Hao originally wanted to thank Cui Lao when he went to play chess today, but when he got up today, he wanted to talk about it tomorrow, but he didn't expect the son of the Cui family to come to the door.

"Dare to ask Cui Lao, who often plays chess on the banks of the Nanyang River, ......"

"It's the ancestor!"

Zhong Hao hurriedly saluted solemnly: "The little brother is about to go to the house to thank him in person, and I hope that Brother Cui will be bowed by the younger brother, and the little brother will thank the Cui family for saving him!" ”

Cui Ye smiled and said: "A little thing, why worry about it!" ”

Zhong Hao said solemnly: "In Brother Cui's eyes, it is a small matter, but in the younger brother, it is a major matter related to the life of the family, the great kindness of Cui Lao and Brother Cui, the little brother is unforgettable!" ”

"Hehe, don't be polite to you and my brother, there will be more places to deal with in the future! Let's go, grandfather asked me to escort you to the Songlin Academy exam today! "Although Cui Ye is a wealthy son, he speaks and acts very kindly, which makes people feel like a spring breeze, and it is natural to get along happily with him.

"Pinewood Academy exam? Isn't it the end of the exam? Zhong Hao remembered that the day of the exam at Songlin Academy was his day in prison, and now it has long passed.

"Who made you a great talent, my grandfather said hello to Xu Shanchang of Songlin Academy, and he was specially waiting to test you in person!"

"Ah, the mountain chief wants to test me" Zhong Hao said with a bitter face: "My level...... Alas, don't be ashamed! ”

Cui Ye said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, you must pass, how can you say that you are also a famous talent, Xu Shanchang can't ask for you!" ”

Zhong Hao felt that it was still very useful to have the identity of a scholar after the turmoil in prison. In the Qingzhou territory, you have to be recognized as a scholar, and you generally need to be admitted to the state school or county school before you are embarrassed to claim to be a scholar. Of course, there is another way, which is to be admitted to the famous Pine Forest Academy.

In Qingzhou, the status of Songlin Academy is no less than that of state school. For each subject in Qingzhou, Songlin Academy, like the state school, can recommend five exempt places. A few years ago, when celebrating the new policy, there was a stipulation: students need to enter the government for 100 days before they can participate in the examination. In Qingzhou, students who have studied in Songlin Academy can also participate in the exam, and they do not have to go to the state school or county school. Although Songlin Academy is private, many policies in Qingzhou enjoy the same treatment as state schools and county schools.

Zhong Hao knew his own level, and he didn't think about taking the imperial examination, but he was still very interested in being able to enter Songlin Academy. At least when he entered the Songlin Academy, he was a scholar. Another one, there are so many students in Songlin Academy, and if you have a good relationship with them, if anyone is admitted to Jinshi in the future, you may be able to hug your thighs.

So Zhong Hao got into the carriage of the Cui family nervously and followed Cui Ye to Songlin Academy.

……

Songlin Academy is located on Yuntuo Street.

There are many famous mountains in Qingzhou, among which Yunmen Mountain and Camel Mountain are the most famous, and the name of Yuncamel Street is derived from the two famous mountains of Yunmen Mountain and Camel Mountain. Yuntuo Street is very wide, and a Nanyang bridge spans both sides of the Nanyang River, making Yuntuo Street accessible from north to south.

The original name of Songlin Academy was Dwarf Pine Garden, and Wang Zeng, the champion of Lianzhong Sanyuan during the Xianping period, studied here. Wang Zeng served as a governor, privy envoy, and prime minister, and was a famous minister of a generation, and after his death, he was given the highest nickname "Wenzheng" by Wenchen. Wang Zeng served as the governor of Qingzhou twice, and he supported Qingzhou University of Culture and Education, and also supported Songlin Academy where he studied. He recruited famous scholars from all over the world to teach at Songlin Academy, which greatly improved the education level of Songlin Academy.

More than ten years ago, Zhang Tangqing, the champion of the Jiaxu Branch in the first year of Jingyou, studied at Songlin Academy under Wang Zeng's tenure. Songlin Academy produced two champions, Wang Zeng and Zhang Tangqing, and became famous for a while. After today's officials learned about the Songlin Academy, they also gave the Songlin Academy a copy of the Thirteen Classics, and instructed all states to follow Qingzhou's example and vigorously establish Confucianism to cultivate talents for the imperial court. Therefore, at this time, the Songlin Academy was not only in Qingzhou, but also in the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhong Hao followed Cui Ye to the gate of Songlin Academy.

The white walls and green tiles of Songlin Academy are very simple and elegant.

As soon as I entered the Pine Forest Academy, I was greeted by two ancient pines planted in pairs. The two ancient pines have short trunks and broad branches, and the branches mediate quite beautiful and lush, and the trunks are thick enough that it is difficult for two people to hug.

Cui Ye had come to Songlin Academy before and said, "It is rumored that these two ancient pines were planted in the Han Dynasty, more than a thousand years ago! ”

When Zhong Hao saw these two thousand-year-old pines, he couldn't help but sigh: "The morning fungus doesn't know the obscurity, the cockroach cricket doesn't know the spring and autumn, and the people are in a hurry for a hundred years.

Cui Ye said with a smile: "This is a bit negative, in fact, there is still a difference, at least people live for a hundred years, flesh and blood, and will always leave their own reputation and imprint, unlike the mushrooms and cockroaches, which come and go silently." ”

"Brother Shouqian is right, the younger brother is still shallow, and please ask Brother Shouqian to advise from time to time!"

There is a thick and simple stone tablet next to the ancient pine, and the stone tablet is engraved with a "Dwarf Pine Garden Fu" in regular script with round and smooth, muscular and bones. Look at the inscription, it is exactly what Wang Zeng wrote.

The layout of Songlin Academy is an ancient standard building with north and south as the central axis and left and right as symmetrical buildings.

The north of the gate seat faces south, the stone steps, is the arch hole, with the left and right ear rooms, and the second door is the hanging flower door. In the rectangular courtyard between the gate and the second gate, there is a cross road, the east and west courtyard walls open small arches respectively, and there are several rows of study built outside the west gate.

Two doors to the inside, for the north and south two into the compound, the front yard is the front lecture hall, the back yard is the back lecture hall. In front of the front and rear lecture halls, a stone side of the blue brick paved platform is built, and the east and west wings with front porches are built.

There is another hanging flower gate in the middle of the north and south courtyards, and Cui Ye took Zhong Hao to the hanging flower gate in the east.

"Cui Liulang, you made me wait! This is Brother Zhong, right? In front of the Hanging Flower Gate, a scholar wearing an azure shirt and a scarf said to Cui Ye and Zhong Hao.

Cui Ye smiled and introduced to Zhong Hao: "This is Xu Feng, Xu Ziyue, the third son of Xu Shanchang, you call him Xu Sange!" ”

Zhong Hao was not familiar with Xu Feng, so naturally it was not good to call him too casually, so he bowed his hand and said, "Little brother Zhong Hao, I have seen Brother Ziyue!" ”

Xu Feng said with a smile: "Brother Zhong, please, my father has been waiting for a long time!" ”
