Chapter 20: Man learns to know, but does not learn unnatural. (below)

Carriages kept stopping, and people dismounted. On the car, under the horse, there are people constantly coming and going. In such a situation, there would have been a crowd of people gathering, but here, it was as quiet as a dead place.

Everyone was looking up, and their eyes were looking through the gate of the academy, as if they could see the mountain behind the academy.

The chatter and laughter have long stopped, and the young students' eyes occasionally intertwined, and most of them smiled and nodded.

Ning Que took Sang Sang to stand closest to the gate of the academy, and one step ahead of them was the place that Ning Que had long longed for and longed to change his fate.

It's just that a middle-aged man with a strange dress and an extremely ugly appearance, with a face that seems to have been splashed with sulfuric acid, is looking down to sweep the fallen leaves on the ground.

There are very few fallen leaves, and there is a lot of dust, but it is drizzling outside the door, but the sun is shining inside the door.

There was a drizzle of rain falling, but it couldn't take away the dust flying in the air.

Many students showed displeasure on their faces, and they all showed disgust when they looked at that face, but Ning Que kept staring at the middle-aged man who was wearing a hat and a broken linen head.

"Could it be that this is the sweeping monk written by Jin Daxia?"

Ning Que looked at that face, and had to say that after the comparison, he felt that the black finch on his face was so good-looking.

Just as Ning Que was looking at the sweeping man and secretly pondering, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance. The sound is uniform, and there is no delay between the ups and downs, as if one person walks a thousand people.

The sound of armor colliding and rubbing, accompanied by the footsteps of nearly 100 people, the Tang Yulin Army gradually approached.

As a secret guard, Ning Que looked at Xu Chongshan in the Yulin Army, then at the five carriages, and frowned secretly.

He knew that the academy was opened, and the Tang Empire would definitely send officials to come, but he didn't expect that the five carriages would come.

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

As Gonggong Lin, who was driving the car, shouted, a group of young people saluted one after another. These people's etiquette is chaotic, there are Tang Dynasty military etiquette, Southern Jin Dynasty official etiquette, and naturally Dahe official etiquette.

'I didn't expect even the Tang Emperor to appear, the academy is really extraordinary'

Ning Que saluted the Tang Dynasty, raised his lowered head slightly, and peeked at the five carriages.

The carriage gradually approached, and the young prospective students gave way one after another, and the Yulin army guarded the sides with knives.

The knife was unsheathed, and the cold determination was raging in the field with a murderous aura.

Those sons of the family who had never felt the iron blood of the battlefield showed their intentions one after another, and their steps retreated again and again.

The carriage was not slow, rolling steadily across the road, occasionally splashing sand and gravel, hitting the armor of the Yulin Army, constantly making a tinkling sound, and the Yulin Army guarding the sides stood steadily on both sides like a sculpture.

Soon, the first carriage passed by Ning Que, Sang Sang sniffed the fragrance in the air, and said softly in Ning Que's ear: "It's Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

The second car, the third car, until all the five carriages were finished, Ning Que also learned about two of them. Although he didn't see him, relying on Sangsang's excellent sense of smell, Master Yan Se and Princess Li Yu had nothing to hide.

Sang Sang didn't know the identity of Master Yan Se, she just told Ning Que that it was the sloppy old man who bought a cup of wine for five hundred taels. Ning Que, who had been lingering with red sleeves for many days, plus the night of the Spring Breeze Pavilion, he immediately thought of the old man who forced him to write.

The two Ning Que were not interested, he knew who was sitting in the third carriage. But compared to those, he wanted to see how the middle-aged people who swept the floor of the academy would deal with themselves in the face of these people.

Soon, the carriage came to the man who swept the floor, who was still sweeping the fallen leaves and dust, and did not take the Yulin army in battle armor and holding a saber seriously.

The feather forest soldiers were all like javelins, their posture was straight, their right hands were pressed on the long knife at their waists, although they were shrouded in a light dust, they were still expressionless, looking around coldly.

The middle-aged man swept the floor by himself, even if the dust was a little thick, the commander of the Yulin Army outside the carriage stood silently on both sides with his brothers, without stepping forward to urge the ugly middle-aged man blocking the road.

The carriage quickly stopped, and the man sitting in the carriage lifted the curtain and looked at where he was. Silently got out of the carriage, nodded slightly to the sweeping man, and walked towards the academy.

Ning Que was slightly surprised, thinking that Li Yu's temperament had soon returned to normal. This woman, who is full of ideas about seizing power, will naturally try to please those who are beneficial to her.

What surprised Ning Que was that the sloppy old man in the second carriage was the same as Li Yu, nodding to the sweeping man and walking there.

The carriage came and went, and when a middle-aged man in a dragon robe came down from the third carriage and held the same courtesy, Ning Que faintly found that this world was abnormal.

He knew the status of the academy in Datang, and he knew that more than half of the officials in Datang had studied in the academy, so he always thought that the academy was very important to Datang, but he didn't know how important it was.

If a subordinate in charge of cleaning up dust and fallen leaves in the academy needs these big people to be treated like this, then how high is the position of the academy? To what extent are the founders of the academy?

If the founder of the academy was here, how would these people be treated? Ning Que was very curious about this!

During the audience, the young students saw the Tang Princess saluting, and they could barely remain calm, but the Tang Emperor also smiled and nodded, which was very intriguing.

The students looked at each other and exchanged glances, and the disgust in the eyes of everyone who looked at the middle-aged man also became respectful.

Of course, whenever there is a wise man, there is a foolish, and this is also the case among this group of students.

Five troikas, five people, the same number of salutes.

"I must be admitted to the academy, and I will definitely become a disciple of the academy!"

"Young master, have you finished the admission test questions given by everyone Jane a few days ago?"

Ning Que was silent, Sang Sang was silent, and a withered yellow leaf fluttered in front of the two of them with the breeze.

Ning Que stretched out his hand to take the fallen leaf, picked it up and looked at it, and after making sure that there was no exam answer on it, he silently threw it in the fallen leaf bucket.

Stepping into the academy, Sang Sang looked at everything around curiously. After seeing the hill behind the academy that was covered by clouds and mist, a pair of eyes narrowed with a smile.

She liked the academy very much, which was not surprising to strangers who approached the academy for the first time. Sangsang didn't think it was strange, she liked the smell very much, it smelled comfortable, so she was laughing.

The ugly middle-aged man was still bowing his head and sweeping the floor, ignoring Ning Que who was saluting. It's like in this world, only the dust on the ground can make him take it seriously.

Ning Que saw the failure of opening the character, was silent for a moment, and pulled Sangsang to the depths.

With Ning Que taking the lead, many young talents who came to participate in the academy stepped into the gate of the academy one after another. This time, the amazing talents representing their respective places lowered their proud heads in front of the middle-aged man who swept the floor.

Among them, some of the people who had shown disgust before also had a hint of ruddy on their faces, hiding at the back of the team and bowing their heads in embarrassment.

Some people do this, and naturally some people do the opposite.

A certain young talent of the Tang Empire, when passing by the ugly middle-aged man, silently spat on the ground, and then strutted forward.

But the boy would soon regret his actions.

It's not that the middle-aged man is how, but Yu Linjun, who was standing on the side, held a knife on the young man's neck and said in a cold voice, "Where are you?" ”

"Put down the knife quickly, I'm Cui Ming of the Cui family of Qinghe County!"

The young man's face was frightened, but his tone of voice seemed to be lacking in confidence. Many people passing by, looking at this Cui Ming like a fool, some shook their heads and sighed, some secretly sneered, and some walked indifferently, which can be said to be different beings.

"You can go back!"

Xu Chongshan looked at Cui Ming with a very indifferent expression.

Of course, he knew where Cui Ming's arrogance came from, as the first family in Qinghe County, the Cui family had taken root in Qinghe County for many years and had deep roots.

The old lady of the Cui family is a well-known powerhouse in the realm of fate, and his five grandchildren, four of whom are famous in Qinghe County, control the army, government office, and caravan of Qinghe County in their respective fields!

It's a pity that the Cui family may be very strong in Qinghe County, but in Chang'an City, which is full of high-ranking officials, it is just a fart that doesn't sound or smell, and no one knows if it is released.

"This general, I don't think I did anything wrong, I have a letter of recommendation, you have no right to cancel my qualification to enter the academy to participate in the academy examination, please be accommodating and let me in."

The middle-aged man who was sweeping the floor on the side looked at Cui Ming from the corner of his eye, and saw that his expression was arrogant, and although his tone was relaxed, he had no intention of admitting his mistake.

"Cui Ming, huh? Although you have a letter of recommendation, the college has the rules of the college, and those who do not respect the college will not accept it, and those who do not respect the teachers and elders will not accept it. This is clearly written in the recommendation letter in your hand, and I don't think you, the son of the Cui family, have ever paid attention to it. ”

Cui Ming's face was gloomy, he opened the letter of recommendation, and after confirming that it was correct, he pondered for a moment and said firmly: "General, since I have come here to study, how can I be disrespectful to the academy?" If it's just because of this person, I'm willing to make amends. ”

Xu Chongshan smiled coldly and didn't speak, just walked straight forward, waving his hand after walking away.

Just when Cui Ming thought he had escaped, five Yulin soldiers came up on the side, and five big knives were held around his neck. There was a chill from the cold blade, and he even felt a tingling in his skin through the air.

"Cui Gongzi, since you deny it, please remove the feces you left here, after the removal, you can naturally enter the academy to take the academy examination, if you can't take the academy examination in time, you can't blame our commander."

A knife-wielding guard spoke coldly, Cui Ming looked at the dusty phlegm on the ground, looked at the faintly yellowed and blackened gray ball, and secretly swallowed his saliva.

The guards put away their knives and stood up, Cui Ming raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, he looked around and found that it should have been a team of hundreds of students, and at this time only he was left.

Looking at the ash ball on the ground, Cui Ming frowned, stepped on it, and ran over it several times, until he could no longer see any traces, then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, got up and walked deeper.

"Wait!"

The five Yulin soldiers with big shoulders and round waists obviously didn't intend to let him go. Under Cui Ming's annoyed gaze, Qi Qi pointed to the deep, damp piece of earth.

Cui Ming was silent, although the students had been admitted to the hospital, and no one could see his embarrassment, how could he bow his head when he was arrogant.

Clenching his fists, his eyes bloodshot, and his forehead bruised, Cui Ming turned around and took the broom and shovel from the middle-aged man's side, and walked towards the road with obvious traces.

He scooped up the piece of dirt, swept it again, and saw that there was a hole in the road, so he silently dug a piece of dry ground from the grass beside the roadside, filled it in, and stepped on it a few times, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After doing everything, Cui Ming entered the academy, and on the way, he recalled everything that had just happened, and felt a little regretful.

He came to the academy for a reason, he regretted that he shouldn't be disgusted with middle-aged people, but these things were cultivated by them for him, and he wanted to change but it was difficult to change for a while. He hates, hates not being able to control his own destiny, hates the good intentions of those people!
