Chapter 192: The Historian's Enlightenment IV (2/2)
Zhou Xia smiled slightly: "What a coincidence, we are on the same road." ”
Seeing Zhou Xia's laughing appearance, the scholar was dizzy for a while and couldn't help himself, so Ban Jin hurriedly patted him so that he wouldn't lose his temper.
Subsequently, Zhou Xia walked with them.
When they arrived at the next town, the three of them spent the night in a sharp fight, and the next day they hired a new carriage and set off. Zhou Xia paid for the carriage, saying that he used the best carriage and the fastest horse, so he didn't have to care about the money.
Ban Jin took the scholar into the carriage, but Zhou Xia drove the horse himself.
To the surprise of the two, Zhou Xia's driving skills are also very good.
It is not far from Jing Kingdom, and there is a very fast carriage, and in the evening, it will also arrive at the royal city of Jing Kingdom.
Although Ban Jin had been to Jing before, he had not been to the Daoist Academy, but even those who had not been to the Daoist Academy knew the location of the Daoist Academy, because its status in the Jing Kingdom was transcendent. The temple has its own rules, and no one can offend. Even the queen of Jing Kingdom has no jurisdiction over the Daoist Academy, not to mention that the dean of the Daoist Academy is the queen's brother, and the relationship between the two is still very good.
Previously, Ban Jin had heard that outsiders needed to report and register when they entered the Taoist Academy, and ordinary people could not enter, so he had prepared the official documents of Ya Kingdom, which could prove his identity as a historian, which should be fine. So, when the carriage was about to drive to the Taoist courtyard, he hurriedly said to Zhou Xia:
"Miss Zhou, this trip is really too troublesome for you. The Taoist Academy is almost here, I have to get out of the car later, and find the doorman of the Taoist Academy to pass it on, so I don't want to delay the girl's time, so let's ...... separately."
Zhou Xia raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? You don't have to go to the trouble of entering the temple, just follow me in. ”
As she spoke, she didn't explain to Ban Jin, and drove forward in the carriage.
Before Ban Jin could stop her, Zhou Xia drove the carriage to the gate of the Daoyuan.
However, as Ban Jin expected, the carriage was stopped.
Zhou Xia drove the carriage and only stopped briefly at the gate of the Daoyuan, and the guards at the gate directly opened the gate and let Zhou Xia drive the carriage in.
Ban Jin was speechless, and only after a while did he ask, "This ...... Why is that? ”
Zhou Xia smiled proudly: "Because I am in the Taoist Academy, I am a privileged class!" ”
Privilege?
Ban Jin guessed, what is the identity of this Zhou girl? She said that her parents are both from Zhibeicheng, then she is from Zhuangguo, and Wen Ling is from the Jing royal family, so it can be seen that she is not related to Wen Ling.
Then she is the core disciple of the Dao Academy?
But she was too young and a woman, and she didn't look like an ordinary core disciple who had already learned something. What's more, even if it is a core disciple, can he directly drive the carriage into the Dao Academy?
In Ban Jin's surprise, Zhou Xia drove the carriage to a small courtyard, she jumped out of the carriage and shouted into the courtyard.
Immediately, several servants came out of the courtyard.
The clothes on those servants were all made of silk, and they were not ordinary people at first glance.
Zhou Xia gave them a few words, and they stepped forward and said to Ban Jin and the others:
"Mr. Ban, my young lady instructed us to take you to the guest room of the Taoist Academy to rest."
Zhou Xia nodded to the two of them and went straight into the courtyard.
Led by two servants, Ban Jin and the scholar walked along a gravel path. Halfway through, Ban Jin couldn't help but ask, "Two, I don't know who your young lady is, and why is there a ...... in the Taoist courtyard Privilege? ”
One of the two servants laughed, "A lot of people ask this question. In fact, my young lady is only the daughter of a nobleman in the former Zhuang Kingdom, and now she is just a disciple in the Taoist Academy. ”
Ban Jin was puzzled: "But ......"
"Actually, we don't really understand the specific reason. It's just that the young lady does have privileges in the Taoist Academy, which Dean Wen personally ordered. ”
That night, Ban Jin rested in the guest room of the Taoist Temple.
The next day, he explained to the people of the Taoist Academy that he wanted to see Wen Ling, showed the documents of the Ya Kingdom, and then waited for the transmission.
Before waiting for a reply, he was allowed to tour the monastery and see its collection, but was not allowed to trespass into the places where he taught and lived.
The location of the Taoist courtyard in the capital of King Jing is very good, and the site is also very large, there are pavilions and pavilions, there are hills, there are artificially introduced streams and ponds, the roads are interspersed among them, and there are strange stones and bamboos on both sides.
Ban Jin along the way, only feel that the road is winding and quiet, and sometimes suddenly open, there is no scenery, the whole Taoist courtyard is built elegant and atmospheric, and often in a small place to see the feelings, you can see that the owner of the Taoist courtyard is a wonderful person.
When he was staying in the guest room, he occasionally came out and walked around the neighborhood, and also met some disciples of the Taoist Academy. Some of them have profound thoughts, unique opinions, and good conversations, and when Ban Jin talks to them, he feels like a spring breeze.
He looked forward to meeting Wen Ling even more, and regretted that he hadn't met the dean sooner in the past.
Whether it is Zhou Xia or other people in the Taoist Academy, the disciples are so extraordinary, what kind of god is the teacher?
After two days in the guest room, Ban Jin finally obtained permission to meet Wen Ling. At this time, it was already evening, and a disciple of the academy came to take over with a lantern, and the disciple was very young, but the etiquette was proper, and there was still a greenness between his eyebrows, but there was a faint demeanor in his actions.
Ban Jin secretly praised in his heart that any of the disciples in the Taoist Academy were extraordinary, and then walked to the hall dedicated to the Taoist Academy with the support of the young disciples.
"Mr. Ban has really been waiting for a long time, our dean is really busy on weekdays, and he has just been free tonight, so I hurried to meet with Mr." The disciple said as he walked.
After all, Ban Jin is also the former Yaguo Mansion Yin, and he is very old, and the Taoist Academy also respects him.
Counting up, Ban Jin is actually older than Wen Ling, but in terms of learning, he does not rank in the order of elder and youngest. Ban Jin felt that Wen Ling had a high status, and it was difficult to see, but it should be.
While speaking, the two of them had already come to the outside of a brightly lit hall, and the disciple holding the lantern raised his voice to announce, and the people inside lifted the curtain to let them in.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw an elderly man with a clear face sitting in the hall, and beside him two disciples said goodbye and left.
This should be Dean Wen Lingwen, Ban Jin thought to himself, because this person is not only good-looking, but also the temperament of the whole person is as quiet as a deep mountain, as quiet as the bottom of the sea, it is impossible to describe it with words to describe the human race.
Even before he came, he was suspicious of Wen Ling's identity as a god reincarnation, but now, Ban Jin has to admit that Wen Ling does have the appearance of a god, and he is not an ordinary person.
"After work, I served as a historian in Yaguo, and I came to visit Dean Wen."
