Chapter 10: Four Shots (1)

Taiping Academy has been singing for a hundred years, and the learning pulse has been extended. Now it is the most famous academy in the capital, and many students from other places have traveled through mountains and rivers to study, just because there is Mr. Zhang Yan, a great Confucian in Yongzhou, to teach.

Because of this, the admission of Taiping Academy is very strict, almost one out of a hundred. There are many talented people who are famous in their hometowns who feel that they are talented and come to study with great ambition. It's a pity that most of them came in a hurry and returned in defeat.

Over time, the entrance examination of Taiping Academy was privately nicknamed "Little Imperial Examination" by the students.

And the new son surnamed Ning has already caused public anger when he entered the school without taking the exam, and what is even more excessive is that he also entered Class A directly, which undoubtedly made all the students who had studied hard for a long time and not got their wish angry.

Some people who were not convinced went to provoke, but who knew that the person surnamed Ning did not refuse to come.

If he is really an embroidered pillow, it doesn't matter, although the students are not angry, after winning the victory, they can let go of the shameless villain by scolding him in private. But this person actually won every game, whether it was poetry or strategy. is only ashamed and ashamed of all the students, and secretly wants to win him in his heart.

…………

Lu Tang got up early in the morning today, and Xizizi instructed Cai Wei to comb herself into a simple and refreshing double bun, tie it with a small pale pink ribbon, and insert a few small pearl and jade hairpins.

I wore a goose yellow shirt with a satin brocade skirt embroidered with green grass and green embroidered moire, and the skirt also hung a squirrel grape pendant given by the princess yesterday. didn't expect that she was not very old, and she only looked more immature and young when she was dressed up like this.

When Mrs. Lu saw her dressed like this when she asked for peace, she couldn't help but have a headache, only to feel that her daughters were twelve years old, but they were still as immature as a child. Such a heartless fool, how can she rest assured that she will marry after two years. Then he ordered Baozhu to find a golden lock Yingluo, and couldn't help but put it on Lu Tang's neck, just hoping to make her more stable. Several brothers felt that the little sister was dressed very well today, and she looked very delicate and cute.

After saying hello to Mrs. Lu, a few people went out together.

Taiping Academy was built at the foot of Qinghua Mountain on the outskirts of Beijing, some distance from the Lu family. Several young masters of the Lu family rode horses, but Lu Tang was the only one who sat in the carriage.

Lu Tang sat in the car, and only brought a more stable Pujia to accompany him. The carriage was very stuffy, and she was dizzy from the carriage, so she opened the blue curtain to look at the lively street outside. I thought of Zhang Yu's chic appearance on the street that day, and I couldn't help but feel envious.

The carriage traveled for a while before reaching the foot of Qinghua Mountain.

Lu Tang lifted the curtain and saw from a distance that the academy was like a giant beast lying at the foot of the mountain, with blue tiles and white walls, and it was majestic.

The carriage passed the high gate building in front of the academy and stopped near the main entrance. Pu Jia carefully helped Lu Tang get out of the car, and several young masters of the Lu family instructed the little maid to tie the horse while beckoning her to go in together.

Lu Tang had never been here, so he couldn't help but take a closer look. I saw two vermilion gates that were slightly mottled due to their age, and the green shade inside was verdant, and the sound of reading and the piano was faintly heard. There is a black wooden plaque hanging directly above the door, on which are written "Taiping" two faded gilded characters.

After entering the house for a while, a female gentleman came to pick up Lu Tang, and the brothers and sisters separated and went separately.

The women's school of this Taiping Academy was originally established by Empress Taizu, and it was very prosperous back then. And whether it is an official lady or a civilian woman, as long as she passes the examination set by Empress Taizu and pays enough shackles, she can go to school. It's a pity that after Queen Taizu, the women's courtyard gradually fell lonely.

And today's Lu Tangjin's women's home was newly opened recently after the queen's dictation, but it only accepts some school-age official children.

Because the Taiping Academy is very large, the Women's Academy is in the westernmost part of the Academy, so it is also called the West Academy. Lu Tang followed Mr. for a long time, first passed the second gate, and then went all the way through the teaching house, Sixian Terrace, Stele Forest and other places, and then passed through a garden to the Linglong School where the women's hospital was located.

There are already many female students in the school, and they can only hear the sound of warblers and swallows inside, so it's not lively. Lu Tang was led in by Mr., and saw Huang Jin'er and several people at a glance, even Zhang Zhen was there. With a little impatience, he saluted the gentleman, and Mei Zizi sat down beside them.

"Sister Zhang is here too." Lu Tang grinned at Zhang Yu, who was sitting on her left.

"I grew up on the frontier, and I was only good at horseback riding and archery, but I was not proficient in poetry, books and etiquette. My grandfather asked me to learn some trades. Zhang Yu said with a smile.

Lu Tang was secretly speechless, he only felt that Zhang Yu won the Kui capital at the Chrysanthemum Meeting, and he was not good at poetry and books, and he really didn't know what to do. But then I thought that she was going to be a mother in the future, and she really should learn more.

Huang Jin'er next to him had already held back his gossip: "Do you know that there is a competition on the arrow field today?" ”

"I heard that it's a student surnamed Ning who wants to compete with everyone in archery!" Liu Xueniang also has two brothers at home, so she said.

Lu Tang nodded very face-savingly, "I know, I know, my brothers also said it!" ”

A few little ladies chattered secretly for a long time, hoping that Mr. could get out of class earlier, so that he could go to the arrow field to watch the excitement.

Thanks to the fact that today is the first day of class, and the requirements of the women's academy for these noble ladies are not strict. The gentleman did not give a formal lecture, but only let the ladies from each province greet each other, and let them talk about their previous learning progress, and then the class was dismissed.

Most of the other little ladies also listened to their brothers or younger brothers say that there was a competition today, and the young lady who had never heard of it was also told by the little sisters around her, so she laughed and laughed, you pull me, I take yours, and go to the south courtyard to see the excitement together.

When Lu Tang and the others arrived at the arrow field, many people had already gathered there. And because there are many more young ladies today, the academy even set up sheds and seats on the sidelines.

"Brother!"

Because the sons of the Lu family are all outstanding and extremely eye-catching, Lu Tang saw them at a glance.

Lu Er and the others walked over with a smile, only to see that the other people were dressed as usual, only Lu Liu was wearing a narrow sleeved short coat and a red lean Hu suit. The placket of the hufu was embroidered with gold thread and the carp jumped over the dragon gate, the hair was tied up spiritually, and a bright and dangling Dongzhu was hung between the foreheads, which looked radiant.

"Sixth brother, this is going to play?" Lu Tang asked curiously.

Lu Liu raised his head proudly: "Of course!" ”

"Although the sixth brother is younger than us, his archery is much better than those of us who are older brothers, and if he loses, we will have no need to play." Lu Er said with a smile.

Lu Tang also knew that Lu Liu was the leader in archery among the sons of Jingzhong, so he pursed his lips and laughed: "The sixth brother must win the son, if he loses, he will export all the brothers together!" ”

After a few more chats, Lu Tang sat in the shed on the sidelines with Zhang Yu, Huang Jiner and other daughters.

"It's coming, it's coming!" There was a sudden commotion in the arrow field.

Lu Tang poked his head out curiously to take a look, and saw that the person who came was dressed in a dark blue beard, with a slender figure, a bee waist and an ape back, and he was chic and free in his movements. couldn't help but praise: "What a young man! ”

When the man approached and revealed a clear face, Lu Tang choked in one breath.

It turned out to be him!

I saw that the man's sword eyebrows flew obliquely into his temples, but he gave birth to a pair of slender peach blossom eyes, his nose was like a gall, and his lips were thin and thin.

If the second son of Lu deserves a sentence of "a humble gentleman, gentle as jade", and the son of Jiyue deserves a sentence of "there is a bandit gentleman, such as cutting and learning, such as pondering and grinding", then this son surnamed Ning also deserves a sentence "The chic and beautiful young man of the sect, looking at the blue sky with white eyes, is as bright as a jade tree in front of the wind".

The ladies of all the mansions were amazed by the demeanor of this son surnamed Ning, and even Zhang Yu couldn't help but look in admiration.

Only Lu Tang's eyes widened, and a few words slowly grinded out between his teeth:

"Ning! Often! ”
