Thinking about it, it has been more than three years since I left the academy, and everything still remains the same, except for the students who come and go in the academy. In Suxin Building, Festive Dining Courtyard, Shangde Hall, Sujian Courtyard and other places, you can see the teenagers dancing spoons and bundling their hair, and Xuan Shaoning, who is already weak, also feels as if he has returned to the past.

How many times did I decide that the lord must go back to the academy as soon as possible, look at the master, look at the senior brothers and sisters, look at Hengsan, and look at Fat Kui, but when the matter came to an end, he could only give up because of various accidents, and now that Fat Kui is gone, no matter how much regret there is, it can only be a regret.

"Fortunately, I'm finally back, and nothing has changed much."

Standing on the Yanbu Bridge, Xuan Shaoning was even more emotional, with an abyss under his feet, and the fog was thick, standing here had the illusion of a far-reaching mind. In the past few years, I have not spared much time to walk across the Yanbu Bridge to have a look.

When Xuan Shaoning's gaze stayed on Linyuan Pavilion again, Zhang Hanshan's appearance automatically popped up in his mind. Zhang Hanshan? Yes, that's him! Before, because things happened one after another, Xuan Shaoning's attention was diverted, until at this moment, he remembered Zhang Hanshan, the ancestor who had been hung in the Linyuan Pavilion.

Pushing open the door of Linyuan Pavilion, everything was as usual, a rough glance, the portraits on the wall did not increase or decrease. Yes, the people who can be hung here must be the characters of Wen Wei Zaizhi and Wu Neng Tuo, and they are also posthumous, and their own group of people are just weak and crowned, and they are not qualified in any case.

Xuan Shaoning began to walk slowly along the hall, looking among the many portraits again, and finally found Zhang Hanshan's portrait.

"It's just a mold print!"

Even though the outfits on the body are a little different, there is no difference in the facial features. Is there really anyone in this world who looks so similar and has the same name and surname? Is this possible? Xuan Shaoning was just looking at the portrait before, but now he began to carefully study the life introduction in the portrait.

Zhang Hanshan, born in the eighth year of Emperor Shun, young and courageous and strategic, began to enter the academy, practiced for seven years and went out of the mountain, accustomed to the military for 14 years, after more than 40 times of large and small battles, outstanding achievements. Because of his careful thinking and decision, he was promoted to the rank of general of the auxiliary state in the fifteenth year of Emperor Hui.

The history of the Liang Dynasty began with Gaozu and has gone through six emperors, a total of 16 years, so going forward, Emperor Shun is the second successor emperor. The eighth year of Emperor Shun is one hundred and two years ago, so calculated, if Zhang Hanshan lived until now, he would be 100 years old!

How is this possible? Although there is no official record of the imperial court, in the past 20 years, what I have seen and heard, and those who can pass sixty are already considered to be long-lived. The Liang Dynasty has always been not stable, there will be wars every few years, wars need troops and money and food, most of the young and middle-aged men died on the front line, women and children have to bear the increasing burden of forced labor and taxes, it is not easy to be more than half a hundred years old.

Over the past hundred years, there are dozens of portraits that can be hung in Linyuan Pavilion, Xuan Shaoning has seen them all, Xuan Shaoning carefully compared all the portraits, he found that most of the portraits have birth and death years, after all, the dead can enter Linyuan Pavilion, only Zhang Hanshan did not record the year of death. His account came to an abrupt end at the peak of his life, and there was no follow-up at all.

In the period of Emperor Hui, Zhong Lesong, who was also dominant, was called the "Great Wall of Civil and Military" with Zhang Hanshan, and Zhong Lesong had a clear year of birth and death.

With doubts, Xuan Shaoning walked out of Linyuan Pavilion, and when he was about to step on the Yanbu Bridge, he found that there was a person standing on the bridge, facing Xuan Shaoning on the side, and his eyes were always under the abyss.

"Senior Brother Shen?"

Shen Ming turned around when he heard the call and said, "You really like to come to the Yuan Pavilion. ”

"Senior Brother Shen is here a long time ago?"

"Seeing that you have been studying the portrait, I can't bother, so I'll wait on this bridge."

"How did Senior Brother Shen know that I was here?"

"The places with the most memories in the academy are Shangde Hall, Sujian Yuan and Linyuan Pavilion, and in seven years, these three places are the places you go to the most. I've looked for the first two places and I can't see you, so I can only come to the Yuan Pavilion to try my luck. ”

"Senior brother actually remembers the places I go to the most? Senior brother's memory really surprised Shao Ning. ”

"Okay, Master is looking for us, let's go."

"Senior brother's memory is amazing, but Shaoning's memory is not bad!"

As soon as Shen Ming was about to turn around and leave, he heard Xuan Shaoning roar like this, and he turned his head to look at this junior brother with a puzzled expression.

"Senior brother, do you still remember that when we first brought us to the Yuan Pavilion, senior brother once said that Zhong Lesong and Zhang Hanshan were the ministers of civil and military affairs during the Hui Emperor period, and they were also the first disciples of the academy, and they were also the two with the highest official positions so far?"

"Remember, how?"

"The senior brother once said that the two of them assisted Emperor Hui to govern the world, and died in office. At that time, I didn't read the biography carefully, but when I look at it today, I find something different. Zhong Lesong did have a year of birth and death, but Zhang Hanshan didn't, the master was so cautious and serious in doing things, he would never miss such important information, and Zhang Hanshan was the only one who missed it! ”

"This was all a hundred years ago, and it's normal to have mistakes."

"Senior brother, do you know that I met someone who not only has the same name and surname as Zhang Hanshan, but also looks exactly the same, which is normal?"

This was the first time that Xuan Shaoning had expressed the confusion in his heart, because he trusted Shen Ming enough, and he had always thought that anyone who heard his narration would definitely have a surprised and surprised expression, and no matter how bad it was, he would ask two more words about what was going on. But Shen Ming had an indifferent expression, not only was he not interested in asking for details, but urged him, "Master and King Yu are waiting for us, don't delay any longer." ”

Xuan Shaoning looked back at Linyuan Pavilion, like a silent old man hiding many secrets, and Shen Ming in front of him was like a wise man who saw through everything, sealing the past in his heart.

All the people above the Yao Pavilion arrived, and Bai Shi, Yu Wang, He Lianping, Chu Hanqian, Yin Li, Ye Kai, Zhao Kexin, and Du Shaoyin were waiting for Shen Ming and Xuan Shaoning.

"The Great General"

"Don't call me General anymore, I've been stripped of my title, you all call me Brother Xiao in the future!"

Brother Xiao? Xuan Shaoning really accepted incompetence for a while, and he was already called "General" and "King Yu", and suddenly became "Brother Xiao", which was really embarrassing everyone.

"The title is just a code name, let people know that this is you, if you can't change it, it's still according to the previous name, don't force it."

Master Baishi looked at Xuan Shaoning's embarrassment and had no choice but to come out of the round, his words were very weighty, even King Yu had to give three points. King Yu has always been spontaneous, he just wants to shorten the distance with everyone, at this time the title is really an inconsequential thing, and he nodded in approval of Baishi's suggestion.

In order to change the topic, Xuan Shaoning asked: "Everyone is here, why didn't Su Qian and Senior Brother Chu Guo come?" ”

This is not only Baishi, but many other people are face changed, of course, King Yu and Xuan Shaoning do not know the matter of Chu's situation.

In order to hide people's eyes, Su Qian had already gone down the mountain in advance. As for Chu Qian's condition," Bai Shi paused, "he died in the Qianyuan Palace Change." ”

Xuan Shaoning couldn't believe that the polite and knowledgeable Senior Brother Chu Guo had passed away, and he died in the palace change!

"The old man decided to bury Fat Kui and Chu Jing together, although they can't enter the Linyuan Pavilion, but the two of them are worth remembering in the future. However, the old man summoned everyone to come for the sake of the Qingshan Academy. ”

King Yu took over and said: "Thanks to the help of the Bai family, I was able to escape from the capital smoothly, and at the same time, the Bai family pharmacist also brought a news that the imperial court may intend to use troops against Qingshan Academy." ”

"The imperial court wants to deal with the academy? Could it be because the imperial court knew that His Royal Highness King Yu was hiding in the academy? Ye Kai guessed.

"The news was brought by Luo Yao, and her news has never been wrong. As for the reasons, we don't need to analyze too much for the time being, what we need to do now is to make a good coping strategy. The old man thought that he would send all the disciples down the mountain first, they were still young and should not be sacrificed. Then His Royal Highness King Yu will also leave as soon as possible and set off for Mobei, and regaining control of the Xuanjia Army is the top priority. ”

"His Royal Highness King Yu, Master, according to the news from the capital, King Xiang will ascend the throne as emperor on the sixteenth day after three days, so there should be no action in the imperial court before this." Helian Ping said.

"I hope so, the most important thing for King Xiang at the moment is to ascend the throne, after all, this is what he has been planning for, so the old man also thinks that the time left for us is only three days at most. King Xiang is about to ascend the throne, inside and outside the capital is strictly guarded, and even outside the city has begun to send troops to patrol, in this case, if the king of Yu boldly goes down the mountain, it is inevitable that there will be some adventures. ”

"Su Qian has already made arrangements, two days later, they will send a team of people and horses to the north, and then they will make a detour to Yanshan, and I will disguise myself as one of them and leave with the horse team."

"That's very good, then everyone, after three days, whether the academy can survive this catastrophe can only be done to the best of God's destiny!"

Xuan Shaoning only felt that Master Baishi's words were filled with indescribable sadness, as if he had foreseen the end of Qingshan Academy.
