Qingxi Academy is located on the Phoenix Mountain in the west of Yongzhou City, and it takes half a day for the carriage to pass, and although I got up early in the morning, I have been grinding in the morning market for a long time, and when I arrived at the Qingxi Academy in the middle of the mountain, it was almost noon, and it was time to have lunch.

We stood at the gate of Qingxi Academy, which was covered by green forests, and waited for someone to open the door, and I gasped and squinted at the fifteenth king and said, "I really can't see that you are a noble prince who looks like a scholar, and you don't blush or pant when you climb the mountain, so much so that you seem to have practiced." ”

The fifteenth king smiled at me, his smile was like a clear breeze and a bright moon, a vast smoke wave, indescribably timeless and calm, and said: "Niang Niang said that she laughed, Weichen just took two steps more than others after dinner." ”

I waved my hand and said, "What are you calling me Niangniang for?"

He looked my men's clothes up and down and said with a smile, "That's not a boy's name. ”

I said impatiently, "You can also call me a good nephew!"

As he was talking, the mountain gate opened, and two penny boys came out of it, saluted the two of us, and said respectfully: "The dean is waiting in Qingxinzhai, please go with the disciples." ”

The fifteenth king thanked him and followed, and I hurriedly motioned for Gu Yu, who was holding the gift, to follow.

Gu Yu walked cautiously behind him, and asked me softly, "Miss, what kind of place is this Qingxi Academy?

I coughed lightly, slowed down and walked side by side with her, and said slowly: "There are two kinds of scholars in this world, one is the son of the minister, and the one who walks is Yin'en, so you don't need to take the imperial examination, you don't need to read the subset of scriptures and history, you can just read some poems and songs." This kind of person pays attention to conduct, rather than learning, in addition to Guozijian studying, Qingxi Academy is the second place where the children of the family study. You also heard the emperor say, Ming Song is the emperor!"

Gu Yu was speechless and sighed: "Sounds really powerful......! Miss, what is another kind of reader?"

They can only take the road of the imperial examination, so they must familiarize themselves with the Four Books and the Five Classics, and understand their essence. I looked up and thought about it, and said, "What kind of academy is there in Yuzhang County, Hongzhou, Jiangnan Province? In the 100 years since its establishment, there have been six champions, two top eyes, and eight tanhua!" and then added proudly: "My father is from that academy, champion!"

"Wow!" Seeing Gu Yu's adoring gaze, my heart was full of joy.

The fifteenth king glanced back at me and said, "The Jinxue Academy in Yuzhang County is indeed worthy of its reputation. ”

I grimaced at him and said, "You know a lot!"

He smiled: "The virtuous nephew also knows a lot. ”

"Humph!" I tilted my head to ignore him.

I couldn't help but chatter, and I muttered to Gu Yu again: "Don't look at the children of the princess who don't have to study hard for ten years, but except for the hereditary ones, the rest of the children are not higher than the fourth grade! That is, there was a fourth-grade official during the Taizong period, and the others are all sixth- and seventh-grade officials! But among those big members of the imperial court, two-thirds of them above the fourth grade came from the Jinxue Academy!"

Gu Yu once again cast his admiring gaze at me, and the fifteenth king turned back and said, "It's a pity that the children of my relatives are officials, and the highest is only the fourth grade." ”

I glared at him with wide phoenix eyes: "I didn't talk to you again, what are you chirping!"

Gu Yu was so frightened that he hurriedly pulled my sleeve, and I hummed and turned my head again. The fifteenth king smiled again and did not speak again. In fact, he really said what I thought, the two elder brothers are now idle in the Hanlin Academy, and they have no real power, if it weren't for me as a concubine, with their talents, it would not be impossible to be a supreme minister!

When I finally arrived at Qingxinzhai, I met Ming Song, an old man with a gray beard and hair.

He was sitting on the straw mat on the couch, and when he saw us coming in, he squinted and said in a long voice, "Oh—it's the old man here—"

But the fifteenth king bowed down, and fell to the ground on his knees, and bowed down strongly.

Gu Yu and I both widened our eyes, he was a dignified prince, and he actually bowed to an old man who was not in the court or the opposition!

"This little brother has a good view, I don't know whose son it is?" Ming Song squinted at me.

I smiled, gave him a look, and said, "The little nephew followed the fifteenth uncle and came to visit Dean Ming." ”

Ming Song touched his beard, stood up, walked in front of me, circled around me twice, and said slowly: "Oh - sure enough, the dragon and the phoenix are not to be underestimated!"

I couldn't help but be embarrassed, he changed his words and asked, "Have you ever eaten?"

The fifteenth king said: "I'm ashamed, I haven't used it yet." ”

I ate a bunch of snacks in the wagon, and I wasn't hungry at all.

Ming Song called the two children and said, "Take the guests to dinner, please go to Mu Fuxuan later, there is still an old man." ”

And the old man?

I raised my eyebrows and said, "Dean, I've already had lunch here, can I go to Mu Fuxuan first?"

The fifteenth king glanced at me, Ming Song smiled slightly, and said, "It's okay, little boy, take the guests there." ”

Because Qingxi Academy is located halfway up the mountain, it is full of towering ancient trees, shrubs pruned into shapes, or small flower beds.

Mu Fu Xuan sits right behind a small flower garden with a mountain in the back and two towering hundred-year-old elm trees on either side. Mu Fuxuan, on the other hand, is built of stones, with stone tables and benches in front.

Some people sat on the stone bench and stroked the harp, but before they saw him, they heard the sound of the harp. When I heard the sound of the piano, I was moved. Seeing the man in white clothes and snow again, the man in fluttering clothes, a smile spread out on his lips, looking at the noble and warm face, the delicate side, and the brilliance between heaven and earth was all under his eyes.

It's been a lifetime since we last met.

The hibiscus planted in the flower garden is red and gorgeous. It seems to burn with all its life, burning its heaven and earth, love and infatuation.

"The orchid leaves are in spring, Guihua is bright in autumn, and this business is a festival. Who knows that the forest dwellers, sit and enjoy each other when they hear the wind, the grass and trees have their own hearts, why ask for beauty. I whispered his tune, and I listened to the sound of the piano, and he looked back. When my eyes touched my smile, I didn't feel a shock.

I grinned and bowed down: "The student has seen the teacher, how is the teacher lately?"

He is my piano teacher, the eighth brother of Qiheng, and the eight sage kings of the dynasty: Qihuai.

After Qihuai was stunned, he came over to help me up, and said in surprise: "How could it be you, Auntie?"

I smiled and asked, "Who does the teacher think it is?"

He smiled, so graceful and elegant, and said: "I thought it was the fifteenth brother, but I never thought that it was you." ”

I smiled maliciously: "Oh, it turns out that the person who is waiting for the teacher to play the piano is the fifteenth king!"

He couldn't help but hold his forehead: "If you have nothing to do, just stroke a song." What are you thinking about, you ghost?"

I only grinned and asked, "You are here, does he know?" The Eight Sages King naturally knew who he was in my mouth, shook his head, and my heart moved, and I looked at him with a smile: "Oh? What the emperor doesn't know, the fifteenth king actually knows?"
