Chapter 22 Nanshan Academy
The weather in June is already a little hot and dry, and the summer cicadas have climbed the branches, and they can't stop screaming.
Nanshan Academy has transplanted many overseas fruit trees and tall shrubs, and now they are all lush and green, and the campus is full of life.
Yan Zhitui was waiting at the gate of the academy early this morning, for no other reason, when he could let his old man wait today, there was no one else except Li Erma.
The sun has only risen in the morning, and the morning bell of Chang'an has just been struck, and it is the early morning when the people of Chang'an are gradually waking up.
On Chang'an Street, the farmers who pick up green vegetables and bamboo shoots have rushed to the East and West Market, and quickly find a shop close to the gate of the East and West Market to sell them home, the streets are a little deserted in the early morning, but there are still many merchants pulling camels and taking trucks to go out of the city, their trucks are full of glass, bicycles and rolls of newspapers, they are caravans to Lingnan and Australia, these things can be exchanged for ten times the spices overseas, once they can return to Datang along the way, the profit can reach a hundred times.
On such a street, the three decorations are not luxurious, but at first glance it is the carriage of the big family galloping through the city, what is surprising is that the three carriages do not even need to be inspected when passing through the city gate, and are directly released, which also makes passers-by think about it, I don't know which of the court officials is sitting in the car
In a luxurious car, Li Er sat on a chair carved from Hainan fragrant silk wood, and in front of him was a square table made of rosewood, where a woman was making tea for him.
"Majesty, please use it slowly." Empress Changsun didn't know what happy things she had encountered today, and there was a joy between her eyebrows.
"Well, Guanyin's kung fu in making tea is getting better and better." Li Er just took a sip, and the rich aroma of tea stretched in his mouth, and then he exclaimed.
"If you like it, you can drink more, Dean Sun has told his concubines many times that the benefits of this tea can not only clear heat and relieve fire, but also calm the mind." Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile in the corner of her eyes.
"Haha." Li Er was also happy to see that Empress Eldest Sun was so happy, "I went to see Gao Ming and Qingque reading today, and it seems that I saw Guanyin's heart." ”
Empress Eldest Sun showed a look of longing on her face, "Your Majesty doesn't know, the prince doesn't say it, Qingque, this child has never left the concubine for more than two days since he was a child, and now he is studying in the academy, and the concubine hasn't seen him for three days, and he misses it in his heart." ”
"Hmm" Li Er nodded lightly, looked at the eldest grandson queen gently, and said: "I haven't seen Qingque for many days, and I miss it very much in my heart, I don't know how this kid gets along with his eldest brother, I heard Mr. Lu say that the two of them are assigned to a dormitory and a class."
"A scrambled egg with bamboo shoots, a roast pork with beans, don't put chili peppers, add two eggs, and a bowl of soy milk."
In the glass window of the cafeteria, a young man in a blue and white robe said generously to the window, completely devoid of the restraint and timidity of the previous days.
This young man is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chengqian.
"Big brother, I heard that the scrambled eggs with bamboo shoots in the canteen are not delicious." Behind him, a somewhat shy chubby young man pulled Li Chengqian's sleeve and said.
"Qingque, how can you know if it's not delicious if you don't try, the gentleman of the academy said that the students of Nanshan Academy should dare to be the first in the world and have the courage to try, have you forgotten?" Li Chengqian is now full of confidence every time he orders food, and he has a feeling of youthful enthusiasm, he doesn't know what happened to him, but without those rules and regulations, he feels very relaxed and happy.
"What Brother Gao Ming said is extremely true." What people can't notice is that there are two people behind Li Tai, one is shorter than Li Tai, with a thin face and a narrow body, looking eleven or twelve years old, but he is too short and small, and there is a little shadow of Chai Shao between his eyebrows, he is Chai Shao's eldest son Chai Lingwu.
The other is just the opposite, the height is as tall as two Chai Lingwu, but the immature face and the fluff at the corners of his mouth can still show that he is not very old, he is the son of Fang Xuanling, who was known as the king of green hats in later generations.
"Brother Gao Ming is right." Fang Yiai did not inherit his father's politeness at all, but seemed a little rude.
Li Chengqian knew that these two people were complimenting him, but he was still happy in his heart, after all, everyone loved to hear good words. When they first went to the dormitory to stay, they found that the four of them were actually from the same dormitory, Chai Lingwu and Fang Yiai both recognized Li Chengqian at first sight, Li Chengqian didn't want to make a public announcement of his identity, so he asked them to call themselves Brother Gao Ming in public.
"Brother Lingwu, the beloved brother praised it, let's eat quickly, there are still classes in the morning." Li Chengqian said that everyone did not talk much, ordered good food and buried their heads in eating, and there was already a posture of Li Chengqian as the leader
"The old minister Yan Zhi congratulates the saint."
At the gate of the academy, an old man in a washed white cloth shirt bowed to Li Er, who was wearing a white wave flying fish suit.
"The old gentleman doesn't have to be polite." Li Er hurriedly went up to help the old man, the Yan family has been a historian for generations, Yan Zhitui's identity is like a mountain in the Tang Dynasty, he is a leading figure in the scholar class, Li Er doesn't salute him, it's not bad, and being saluted by such an old man really torments him.
"It is a blessing for Nanshan Academy to be able to come to the academy, should you gather the students and listen to the holy words?" Yan Zhitui asked politely.
"Let's go another day, today I am accompanying Guanyin to see Gao Ming and Qingque." Li Er said with a smile.
Yan Zhitui was not embarrassed when he heard about it, an old man like him, age is seniority, and he didn't care about any face, so he laughed and said: "The children and grandchildren are full, the joy of family is also, Your Majesty is a good blessing, and the minister will personally lead the way for Your Majesty." ”
Following behind Yan Zhitui, Li Er curiously observed what he saw and heard along the way, the tree-lined road, there was a huge red circle next to it, and in the circle was a grassland, and dozens of soldiers wearing shorts, shorts, stockings, and football boots were fighting for something on the grassland.
"Mr. Yan, what are those strangely dressed soldiers doing?" Li Er was naturally interested in sports and asked curiously.
"Haha, Your Majesty doesn't know, this is what Xu Yang said about the method of Guigu entertainment, which is similar to my Tang Juju, eleven people on both sides, one person guards the goal, and kicking the ball into the opponent's goal will be counted as one point, and the one with the highest score at the end of time wins." Yan Zhitui explained casually, "Little Lao'er also wanted to go to the football field to join in the fun, but he is too old to play." ”
In the face of Yan Zhitui's self-deprecation, Li Er couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Yan is a literati, he only needs to study in the house, and this kind of charging is still left to the martial arts." ”
Unexpectedly, Yan Zhitui heard this, his gray eyebrows curled, and he said righteously: "Your Majesty's words are bad, for this point of view, Guigu Xu Yang once refuted, Yu Guigu has a sentence 'The body is the capital of **", and the meaning of "**" here is "work", that is to say, only with a strong physique can you make a better study, and it is not a wise choice to stay in the house all day long and study." ”
"Oh?" There was an intriguing smile on the corner of Li Er's mouth, "The words of Guigu are really concise and philosophical. ”
Staring at the many young people running on the green field, Li Er showed a hint of fascination, and decided in his heart that after meeting Qingque and Gao Ming, he would come here to experience the Keju of the Ghost Valley
Following behind Yan Zhitui, Li Er can be regarded as experiencing the vigorous atmosphere of Nanshan Academy, and the young scholars who walk around the campus from time to time make him feel ten years younger.
The neat and colorful teaching building, the bright and novel canteen, the huge and spacious library, and the loud discussions and fierce arguments of the scholars. This qiē is so incredible in Li Er's eyes, the energy of the Guigu really seems to be able to change the world, transforming the entire Nanshan Academy into incompatible with the entire Tang Dynasty, as if a civilization that has surpassed thousands of years suddenly connects to the trajectory of the Tang Dynasty, allowing people in the academy to stay out of the world and quietly enjoy the most beautiful place in the world.
"Your Majesty, in front of it is the primary school teaching building, the prince and the two princes are in the classroom on the first floor, according to the schedule, the prince and the two princes are taking Mr. Qin Qiong's political and military class." Yan Zhi overturned the class schedule in his hand and said to Li Er.
Li Er looked at the eldest grandson queen beside him, who couldn't wait, and walked towards the classroom on the first floor, and heard a burst of Qin Qiong's trademark laughter from the classroom from a distance.
"Haha, this little classmate is right, the newspaper has reported the news of Datang's expedition to Silla, but this time my Datang sent more than just 3,000 Xuanjia troops!" R1152
