It is located in the northwest corner of the back garden of Guozijian. In fact, it is surrounded by four independent attics, because the fourth floor is named after the four gentlemen in the flower, and is also called the gentleman's building.

The gentleman's building with blue brick owl tail, scarlet column silver pillar, and four-color glazed tiles is located on the shore of Qingyang Lake, and it is the judgment place of the other seven competitions in the art competition of the five academies in addition to archery and royalty.

Four attics on one side of two opposites, the first floor is supported by dozens of columns, every time the five courtyards are compared, there is a soft carpet seat, the full seat can accommodate more than 500 people, the second floor incense gallery seats, the north plum building is the seat of the art judges, the east and west two floors are the seats of the parents of the reference students, and the south Lan Lou is the seat of the invited adults of the court.

The central empty field surrounded by the Junzi Building is the test venue, and there are more than ten specially made giant water tanks scattered underground, and the sound of human music is extremely loud here.

Yi Yu took Lu's arm, Lu Zhi walked on their right side, and the three of them walked along the lakeside towards the Junzi Tower.

There is another big road not far to the left, which is quieter than this one. Obviously, it's much more lively, many students are still carrying bookbags, but it is obviously not filled with books and the like, Yu Yu saw some students take out small bags of food from the bag, laughing while talking, and throwing it into their mouths while walking, it seems that there are really not a few people who regard the five academy art competition as entertainment and watching plays.

Since Lu returned to Chang'an City more than ten years later, he has only entered the Guozijian twice, once to deliver things to the Lu brothers, and once to accompany her to see Dr. Jin Qide before Yiyu entered the school.

She was walking in the highest school in the Tang Dynasty at this time, but she didn't look around because of the novelty, and when she was walked outside the gentleman's building by her children on the left and right, Lu Zhi's footsteps stopped.

"Mother, let's wait, Mrs. Cheng, they will be here in a while."

Not all of the forty-five participating students brought their parents to the scene, for example, the eldest grandson Wuji, Du Ruhui, and Cheng Xiaofeng's father, Cheng Zhijie, Mrs. Cheng will come today, half of them are for their daughter, and most of them are for seeing the long-known Lu family.

The three of them stood outside the bamboo building of the Junzi Building and didn't have much effort, and five or six students followed their parents by, Lu Zhi's snow-blue clothes were too dazzling, and Lu Shi looked graceful again, these people saw the mother and son, all looked sideways, and some nodded and smiled at Lu Shi kindly. After passing by, he whispered to his children about their origins.

Lu Shi noticed the strange gaze of others, and turned his head to ask Yu Yu with some concern:

"Xiaoyu, isn't it a bit too much for my mother to dress up like this?"

When she was in the middle of the day, she couldn't sleep anymore, she got up early to dress up, Lu didn't prefer to be plain too much, but she didn't like too gorgeous clothes, but today in order not to fall into the face of the children, she dressed up carefully.

She specially changed into a new winter dress, three layers of layered underwear and skirt, wearing a wide-sleeved brocade robe with an autumn fragrance background, her hairstyle is a neat falling horse bun, half of the beads are full of greenery, half of the plain cloud temples, plus her dignified and elegant face, anyone who looks at it will be mistaken for a noble lady in the capital.

Yi Yu let go of Lu's hand, looked at her, and whispered with laughter: "It's too much, it's just that your daughter is standing next to you, just like a little maid serving Our Lady of Yaochi." ”

Lu couldn't help laughing, and the restraint on his body disappeared. Stretching out his index finger and tapping her forehead, "Just laugh at home, when it's time to be out there and be so out of shape." ”

Lu Zhi stood on the east side of the two of them, blocking the cool breeze blowing from the lake, looking at the relics in a leisurely mood and laughing at Lu, and saw several figures approaching from the side, and said to Lu in a loud voice:

"Mother, Mrs. Cheng is here."

Lu Shi suddenly turned to look at the road they had come, and saw a tall and well-proportioned girl walking towards them with a noble lady in her thirties.

Cheng Biting Jin's wife Pei Cuiyun was a few feet away, and was gently pulled by her daughter's hand, "Mother, that is Mrs. Lu." ”

Before Cheng Xiaofeng spoke, Pei Cuiyun saw the dignified and elegant woman in her thirties, and was surprised, according to what she originally thought, the Lu family, who was nearly forty years old, although she had been a daughter of Chang'an City, could have been in a foreign country for many years with her three children, and suffered so much, even if the charm still exists, it will not be this noble and not old-fashioned appearance!

Surprised in her heart, she had a kind smile on her face, stepped forward quickly, and without waiting for the junior's introduction, she enthusiastically took Lu's hand in front of her.

"I've heard the children talk about it a long time ago, but I didn't come to visit for fear of being disturbed, so it's no wonder that the girl is there."

"What my sister-in-law said, it's right for me to come to visit, so we don't need to be polite......"

Lu and Pei Cuiyun are well aware of their relationship. Therefore, although it was the first time they met, they did not show any rustiness, neither of them was a writhing woman, and after a few words, they talked together, but put the three children aside.

Cheng Xiaofeng was afraid that her mother would snub the Lu family, who was a civilian, but when she saw this, she approached Yu Yu with a strange face, stretched out her hand and stabbed her, and whispered:

"Your mother must be my mother's long-lost sister, I have never seen her so close to the person I met for the first time."

"Ahem," Yi Yu smiled dryly, and said, "Maybe this is called fate." ”

But I was thinking in my heart: I really let her say half of it, Lu is Cheng Yanjin's sister, isn't it Mrs. Cheng's sister.

The two women chatted as if no one was around, and Lu Zhi seized the opportunity to interject, "Aunt Cheng, mother, you go upstairs to sit first, and I will take Xiaoyu to see the sacrificial wine." ”

There are stairs leading to the second floor on the outward-facing side of the four Junzi Building, so Pei Cuiyun pulled Lu Shi into the bamboo building, and Lu Zhi and the three of them walked in from the main entrance of the Zhonglan Building in the Junzi Building, and Cheng Xiaofeng also did not participate in the piano art.

As soon as I entered the Gentleman's Building, the surroundings suddenly became lively, and most of the students were already present. Because the hour had not yet come, they sat and chatted in a casual manner, with more than a dozen scholars shuttling back and forth with teapots, and on a few small oak wood tables there were still students bringing their own food.

There is a incense burner and a soft plain blanket on the venue of the competition, and more than 40 participating students will sit here to show their piano skills.

Passing through the competition venue, the three of them entered the plum building, and went up to the second floor, where the sacrificial wine and the doctor of the fifth academy were already seated side by side, and the three or two students knelt in front of the doctor of the academy and whispered.

Yi Yu and Cheng Xiaofeng successfully abandoned the piano art in the sacrificial wine room. On the desk in front of Dongfang You was a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, as well as two pamphlets, and he found the names of Yu Yu and Cheng Xiaofeng on the top of one of the white books, and annotated a few sentences below, which was appropriate.

When the three of them were about to go downstairs, Lu Zhi was stopped by Dr. Zha Jiwen, and Cheng Xiaofeng was afraid that he would also be left to lecture, so he whispered to him:

"Xiaoyu and I will go to the Lan Building first."

After speaking, they pulled Yiyu down the stairs quickly, because the stairs from the second floor to the first floor are located outside the building, and there are no stairs on the first floor, so they went around half a circle before entering the first floor of the Lan Building opposite, and found a position to sit on the side but with a good view.

She had already seen the small bag that Yi Yu was carrying on her shoulder, she reached out to come over, opened it and took it out, these were all food prepared by Pingtong, and Yu Yu didn't take a closer look before leaving in the morning, this saw her on the table like this, and couldn't help but half open her mouth.

Three delicate round boxes contain fragrant snacks: gold and silver spring rolls, red bean paste eyebrow crisps, lotus cakes, and two long bamboo tubes, and when the stoppers are opened, there are clean roasted seeds and a small bag full of dried fruits.

"Xiaoyu, your mother is so good," Cheng Xiaofeng pinched a spring roll and stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "My mother doesn't allow me to bring food. ”

Yi Yu said in her heart, where is this prepared by her mother, but the two maids of Pingtong and Pinghui are really caring.

"While others are playing the piano, others are eating, isn't that right?"

It's hard to imagine that when the beautiful people on the field are playing the piano, the audience below is clicking and eating snacks, can they still play calmly.

"You don't understand this, right," Cheng Xiaofeng waved at the scholar in front of him and motioned for him to pour tea. Then he continued to Yu Yu, "If you play well, let's naturally listen carefully, if you play well, if you don't play well, then - haha." ”

It turned out that there were not only nine judges of Meilou, although the students here did not have the right to decide, but they could show their attitude towards the reference students in their own way!

"Knock-knock-knock-", the sound of a bell suddenly sounded in the building, and the students who were still scattered hurriedly returned to everyone.

"Look, look, who are the adults upstairs?" There was such a low cry around Yi Yu, and everyone looked up to look at the judgment seat on the second floor of the Mei Building opposite, and some students hurriedly took out a thin booklet from their book bags, rolled it into a cylinder, stood up and compared it to their eyes, and saw that in addition to the sacrificial wine and the doctor, three more figures appeared on the incense corridor.

When he was about to fix his eyes on it, he heard someone say in a loud voice: "Ah! It's Du-sama! It's... Lord Shen! And-"

"And Lord Fang!"

Yi Yu chuckled in her heart, squinted her eyes to look at Mei Lou, which was a little far away, and sure enough, she saw one of the emaciated figures that were somewhat familiar, and suddenly thought that Lu Zhi was still upstairs, and she hurriedly clenched her fists into a cylinder and compared it to her eyes, and suddenly the picture was much clearer, and what made her relieved was that there was no figure of Lu Zhi on the incense gallery, and he must have come down.

"Ahh

Yi Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and when she was about to sit down, she heard a low cry from the student seat of the Mei Lou opposite, which seemed to be contagious, and the Julou and Zhulou next to her immediately let out a whisper of surprise and joy, except for the Lan Lou where she was.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" The students sitting in the Lan Building all turned their heads to ask each other what was going on.

(One more arrives, appeal for pink votes!) ）(！ )
