Chapter 6: The College (I)
When the morning sun shines golden from between the clouds.
A half-grown boy with bright eyes and wearing a scholar's green coat knocked on the door of a small courtyard in Guangfu Academy with a delicate food box.
"Young master, young master, the newly released scallion pancakes."
"It's forty-nine! Send it in. ”
With a calm voice, this little scholar named "Sijiu", who was about fifteen years old, carefully pushed open the door of the small courtyard, and then quietly turned around and closed it, and then walked in with the food box.
This small courtyard is not large, only a front yard with a few potted plants, and a small wooden wing on the inside, and the environment does not look very gorgeous.
However, one person occupying a small courtyard is already the most luxurious residence among the students of this academy, which is much better than those scholars who live in the same room with five or six people.
In the end, the Fuwei Dart Bureau is also an extraordinary force with internal strength, a prestigious existence in Fuzhou City, and it is normal for Lin Pingzhi to occupy this small courtyard as the only son-in-law of Lin Ping's Lin family.
At this time, Lin Pingzhi in the room had already dressed up, tied a hairband, and walked out of the house with a roll of "Zhou Yi" in his hand.
Next to the green bonsai in the small courtyard, after Lin Pingzhi finished eating on a stone table, he withdrew his scholar Sijiu and read aloud with "Zhou Yi".
Among the Four Books and Five Classics, Lin Pingzhi prefers "Zhou Yi", because compared with other books about social ethics, the content in "Zhou Yi" is mysterious and mysterious, but it does contain a profound rhyme of heaven and earth.
Although because of the short time, he did not realize any wonderful methods from it.
But after reading a little bit of "Zhou Yi", under the systematic testing, Lin Pingzhi's cultivation speed of absorbing heaven and earth aura and refining internal force has indeed been improved by nearly half of the layer, which really surprised him.
When Lin Pingzhi recited "Zhou Yi", the entire Guangfu Academy seemed to wake up from the tranquility of the early morning.
The recitation and recitation of the students of the academy began to resound continuously in the largest academy in Fuzhou City.
It has been almost two months since he entered this academy, and Lin Pingzhi has fully integrated into the life here, compared to the fights and killings in the rivers and lakes, the academy is simply another world.
Although this Guangfu Academy has long been infiltrated by the Donglin Party, the few people and more than a dozen talented people standing at the top of the academy discuss the government and politics in public from time to time, spurning those eunuch bureaucrats who follow the 9,000-year-old.
But this has little to do with a scholar like him who has just started and has not yet gained fame.
A poor scholar from a small family can't climb a young master like Lin Pingzhi, who looks like a big family and a scholar with him.
And the real eunuchs and scholars in Fuzhou City, they somewhat knew some of the background of the Fuwei Dart Bureau, and did not take the initiative to provoke Lin Pingzhi.
However, because of the short period of time, a group of wealthy students who were also born in wealthy business families got along well with Lin Pingzhi, and in the past two months, he has expanded a circle of contacts.
"Brother Ping, Brother Ping!"
Probably heard Lin Pingzhi's reading outside the door, and the door of the small courtyard was gently pushed open.
Three young students of different heights, fat and thin, dressed in clothes and fabrics of the best were all of the best materials, and the leader was a fat man, who was full of smiles and congratulated Lin Pingzhi.
"Congratulations to Brother Ping, Brother He Xiping!"
"This month's college exam, ranked fifth!"
These three people are all students of the academy who live next to Lin Pingzhi's small courtyard, and they are also the three people who have the best friendship with Lin Pingzhi among the wealthy businessmen he has been with in the past two months.
They surrounded Lin Pingzhi, full of praise and congratulations, and confided out without money.
"Alright, alright."
After they complimented them for a long time, Lin Pingzhi put down the scroll, looked at the three living treasures in front of him, and said calmly.
"Brother Dongping, Brother Zeng Guang, and Brother Delin."
"Since you came here to congratulate your brother first, then I will take you with me this time at the Guangfu Poetry Conference!"
The Guangfu Poetry Society, also known as the Fuzhou Poetry Society, is held in September every year outside the city of Fuzhou, in the Xuetian Zhuangzi of Guangfu Academy, and is the most influential cultural event in Fuzhou City and the surrounding areas in this era.
From the science and road officials in Fuzhou and the surrounding areas, to the children who have just passed the county and government examinations, and some young ladies who are raised in the boudoir and do not come out all year round, as long as there are no accidents, almost no one will be absent from this grand event.
Every year, many excellent and beautiful poems will flow out of the poetry meeting, making many poor literati famous in one fell swoop.
There are also many official eunuchs, who look at a certain scholar who is full of literary brilliance at the poetry meeting, and every year, they will achieve several pairs of good things after the poetry meeting.
Of course, for outsiders, especially for young men, there is also an identity threshold if they want to participate in this literati event.
Normally, at the very least, you must pass the county examination and the government examination to be eligible to enter the poetry club.
However, after all, this is an event hosted by Guangfu College, and for its own college students, this threshold has been lowered to the top 30 in the college examination.
Before Lin Pingzhi entered Guangfu Academy, although the students in the wealthy business circle were all from wealthy backgrounds, their family environment was much worse than those who had raised people and entered the scholars.
In addition, they have not suffered from poverty, and in terms of their hard work, they can't fight those poor children who can't fight the top of the academy, which directly leads to their achievements in the academy, although most of them are not at the bottom, but they are also mostly middle and lower, and no one has ever entered the top 30.
Therefore, they have never participated in the poetry club in the past, and they have always been at the bottom of the chain of contempt in the circle of students of the academy, and the children of the official eunuchs and the children of the poor family look down on them.
This year's Guangfu Poetry Club will start next month, and the children of wealthy businessmen who thought they were still hopeless to enter would never expect Lin Pingzhi, who had just joined his circle, to win the fifth place in the big exam.
You know, those who are qualified to go to the poetry club can bring three friends.
Being able to really go to the scene and see the demeanor of the literati and the young lady is the reason why the three people in Lin Pingzhi's mouth, "Dongping, Zeng Guang, and Delin" complimented him so much.
Dongping, Zeng Guang, and Delin, seeing that Lin Pingzhi agreed to take them to the poetry meeting, and after achieving the biggest purpose of coming to Lin Pingzhi, they thanked and left with a happy face.
After sending off the three students, Lin Pingzhi's small courtyard calmed down again.
But he knows that from today onwards, his future life will no longer be peaceful.
As the most prestigious academy in Fuzhou, Guangfu Academy's big examination is comparable to the normal Xiucai exam, and Lin Pingzhi was able to win the fifth place in it, which can almost be said to have half a foot into the threshold of Xiucaigong.
Don't look at the Internet era in later generations, the shouts of "poor sour talents, poor sour talents" seem to be not worth mentioning.
But in this era, there are only a few official talents in a county, and the talents under the age of forty in a big city like Fuzhou City are the dozen or so talents in Guangfu Academy.
Not to mention, Lin Pingzhi has just turned 16 years old, and in this era of the imperial examination, which attaches the most importance to the examination, it is enough to be called a "young handsome"!
Lin Pingzhi believes that the limelight of his big exam this time has entered the eyes of some big people.
And in the next poetry meeting, if he gets a dazzling performance and climbs a teacher who can really help him climb to the top of the clouds, then his future to change his original body and the road to Wendao will be smoother·······
