Chapter 53 What kind of evil did you bump into?
Mei Xiaoren didn't know what kind of evil she had hit, her studies had long been delayed, and her daily homework was extremely important, but she came for three days, and the academy's classes stopped for three days
At first, due to the serious illness of the mountain chief, the academy was suspended for one day, but on the second day, the mountain chief's illness eased, but the bishop came to the Shangxue Hall in person, announcing that the academy's classes would continue to be suspended, just because a senior official came from the capital and went to Jinshan in a few days.
According to the bishop's wishes, the whole college was able to receive this lord as a matter of priority, and all other matters were put on hold.
In order to show the solemnity, the Bishop planned to have the students practice swordsmanship in the square when he arrived, which meant that although they did not have to study for a few days, they had to devote themselves to practicing swords.
The academy does not teach any advanced swordsmanship, just a few ordinary moves, focusing on self-defense and physical exercise. But even if the action is simple, it is difficult for a woman who has never held a sword to get started.
In the courtyard, Mei Xiaoren stood motionless with a brand-new wooden sword in his hand. Her gaze rested on the sword, her eyebrows furrowed.
Su Li, who was on the other side, waited for a long time and didn't wait for Mei Xiaoren to make a move, and urged: "Brother Mei, come on, didn't I teach you just now?"
Mei Xiaoren was still hesitant, she raised her eyes and swept around, seeing that the students were doing their best for the drill in a few days, just hoping that they would stand out from the crowd and be appreciated by the officials.
But she was afraid that if she made a move, she might not only not be appreciated, but also lose the face of the academy
"Brother Mei" Su Li was already helpless.
Someone next to him sneered: "Su Da fool, you can do it, you still want to teach others to say that he has only been here for a few days, I'm afraid that I can't even hold books, how can I hold a sword." ”
Mei Xiaoren glanced at it, and the person who spoke was called Wu Xian, and he had an aunt who was a concubine in the palace. She blinked her eyes slightly, and only then did she notice who was the person who was sparring with Wu Xian, it was the eldest prince of Wen Bin Wen who Su Li asked her to bend down and bow when she saw her.
Others want to stand out in front of the big officials, Mei Xiaoren can understand, but Wen Bin Laozi's rank is already high enough, what kind of excitement does he come to join
Su Li also saw Wen Bin, and hurriedly stepped forward, "Gongzi Wen is also here, then we won't disturb the two sons, I'll take Brother Mei elsewhere." ”
Wen Bin glanced at Su Li lightly, "Okay, my son is in a good mood today, so it's okay to squeeze a place for you to come out." ”
Su Li smiled happily and bent down to arch his hand: "Thank you for your understanding." ”
Wen Bin raised his wooden sword and slashed at Wu Xian. Wu Xian just stopped after blocking it with his hand, and said jokingly: "Brother Wen, what is your background, you can work so hard."
Some people around echoed: "That is, Wen Gongzi's father is a scholar of Shangshu, and his rank is on par with that of a university scholar, where can Wen Gongzi practice as hard as we do." ”
Wen Bin smiled, "You can't say that, the scholar and my father are colleagues, I have to give face, and besides, the academy pays attention to treating everyone equally, and I should also go into battle with all the juniors." ”
When Mei Xiaoren heard this, he was faintly surprised, and asked Su Li in a low voice: "University scholar, which university scholar?"
"Of course, it's a scholar of Wenhua Palace," Su Li said clearly.
Mei Xiaoren was incredulous and continued to ask: "The one next to Your Majesty"
"There are still a few second-grade university scholars in the world"
"It turned out to be him," Mei Xiaoren muttered to himself, his tone still mixed with surprise.
She had never met this scholar before, so she was so surprised, but she remembered that there was a person she knew, Grand Duke Chu, under his hand
Child.
"What are you doing standing here, and you don't practice diligently"
The cold voice came, and everyone felt a chill in their backs, and they hurriedly brushed their hands in the direction where the voice came from, and called, "Master Zhou." ”
This shout of "Master" was much kinder than that of the Bishop, but it still failed to soften the serious expression on Bishop Zhou's face.
Mei Xiaoren looked up at Bishop Zhou slightly, and saw that he was followed by several priests as always, including the one surnamed Sun. As Su Li said, Sectarian Sun patted the bishop's sycophants with perseverance and inseparability.
Bishop Zhou came with a steady step like Mount Tai, stood in front of them and straightened his waist, and said: "In the drill in three days, if anyone goes wrong, I will give the mountain chief and expel him from the academy."
The cold shock seemed to work, and the students cheered up, and when the bishop gave the order, they turned to their companions and said that they would practice.
Mei Xiaoren never slacks off in any of his duties, even if he is worried that he will be difficult to learn, he does not refuse to try to learn.
She held the sword and followed Su Li's movements. A dark shadow fell in front of her.
Bishop Zhou had come to her side and looked at her patiently for a long time.
Mei Xiaoren calmed down and was not disturbed, what to do and what to do, but the movements were slow because of unfamiliarity.
"You haven't learned swordsmanship before," Bishop Zhou suddenly asked.
Mei Xiaoren took the sword in his hand and arched his hand: "Go back to the master, no." ”
"Okay, you don't have to practice, follow Sectarian Sun to the library to sort out the classics, and in a few days the scholar will stay here, and if he has a book he wants to read, you will send it."
"The student takes the order." Mei Xiaoren waved his hand.
Bishop Zhou nodded. Mei Xiaoren had only been here for a few days, and he didn't know how much he learned and swordsmanship, but he could see that his etiquette was extremely skillful, especially when facing these gentlemen, his words and deeds were all inappropriate, and even the bent waist when he saluted was just right.
No matter where Mei Xiaoren went to learn this in the past, since he has such ability, it is most appropriate to send him to serve as a scholar, which is more worry-free than those invincible sons and young masters.
Bishop Zhou looked sideways at Sectist Sun behind him and motioned for him to take Mei Xiaoren over.
The library building was built at the back of the academy, and the distance was a little far, and the teacher Sun who led the way looked like a person walking alone. He strode forward, not thinking that there was anyone behind him.
Mei Xiaoren only sighed that people who understand are people who understand after all, and people who are confused are still confused.
Sectarian Sun is that foolish man.
No matter how flattering he is, he has not been able to stretch out of the academy so far, not because the bishop can't see it, but because the bishop knows in his heart that if he fulfills the priest Sun, who will fulfill him
A member of the third grade can call the wind and rain in the local area, and can also set off waves in the capital, but when he arrives at the academy, he can only deter a group of hairy boys who have not dried up
Whoever wants such an errand is willing
Bishop Zhou's thoughts are nothing more than to count on no one than to fulfill others emptyly.
It's a pity that this Zhongju came to the academy Teacher Sun was still immersed in a dream, and he didn't know that he had chosen the wrong way.
It is also said that this place is a pure land, a fertile ground for long-cherished wishes, and people can only see their ideals, but not what they hide.
She can see it because she has been in the turbid world of officialdom for a while, and her eyes have been polished by reality.
