Chapter Ninety-Five: Injustice
Chu State, inside the antique school.
A small tearoom was full of pedantic people, dozens of people of different ages, and all the teachers in the school should have gathered together. Among these teaching gentlemen, Sijun, who is still a little childish between his eyebrows, is the youngest.
"Fifteen days in another day, it will be the second day of the fifth month, that is, the day of the big competition of Xiangjun Academy. After the preliminary evaluation, this year, we are still competing for the title of the first academy in Xiangjun by our Qingyi College and Baishi College......"
The eunuch who was sitting in front of the tearoom behaved in a gentle manner, and his tone was very majestic.
"Needless to say, the importance of the title of the First Academy is the supreme honor of a college!"
"Last year, we lost to Baishi Academy, and this year we will go all out to regain the title of 'First Academy'!"
The rest of the gentlemen nodded their heads one after another, pretending to be desperate.
Sijun pursed his lips and did not agree. In his opinion, the name of 'First Academy' is just a name for overcharging.
"This year's evaluation is also divided into three contents, miscellaneous, scriptures, and recitation, and each college can send two teams, divided into student teams and division teams. Each team consists of three people to participate in a competition. If our academy wants to regain the title of the first academy, we must win four games!"
"For each team member, I have already decided on the candidates. The dog is not feeling well these days, so he can't join the student team......"
"Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity~" Several gentlemen chimed in in the lower seat.
However, although some people showed pity on their faces, they said disdainfully in their hearts, "If he can hold on to the wall, he will definitely not be uncomfortable." ”
Sijun didn't have much reaction, he didn't want to flatter, let alone mock secretly.
"As for the division commander's team, I plan to set the three gentlemen Yupeng, Hongye, and Jiaxun to compete for miscellaneous works, scriptures, and chanting respectively. I wonder what objections you can have?"
"The prison has arranged it!"
"No objections!"
A number of gentlemen chimed in.
The prisoner then said some words of encouragement sincerely, and then waved his hand to order everyone to disperse.
As soon as he walked out of the tea room, several middle-aged teaching gentlemen gathered around a man and exclaimed, "Hongxun, congratulations!
"Yes, Lord Eunuch really appreciates you. Hongxun deserves to be the most talented person in our Qingyi Academy. ”
"When Hongxun shines in the evaluation field, maybe he will be appreciated by the people of the county government! ”
The man named Hongxun looked like he was in his twenties, handsome in appearance, and there was a lot of pride in his expression.
At this time, Sijun passed by the side of several of them, so he smiled and saluted a few people.
The gentlemen just nodded casually and did not reply.
Hongxun glanced at Sijun with disdain, and scolded in his heart, "Poor boy who can't help himself, what qualifications do you have to compare with me!"
Hongxun and Sijun are six or seven years old, and they are both full of talent, so it is inevitable that they will be compared privately on weekdays, which makes Hongxun, who has never looked down on Sijun, very dissatisfied, and therefore disgusted with Sijun for a long time.
"Besides Hongxun, who else can take on this person. Hongxun is much better than those who have a sweet mouth and disdain to be with us,"
Sijun had just taken a few steps away when a sneering voice came from behind him.
Sometimes, if others don't like you, no matter how you behave, they think you're not doing right. When you take the initiative to smile and express kindness sincerely, others think that you are a sweet-mouthed sword, you are cold and silent, and others ridicule you for being pretentious.
In the tearoom, Zhixue, who was dressed as Brother Gongzi, pushed the door and walked in, sat lazily on the Taishi chair, played with the teacup on the side, and said, "Dad, why don't you send Sijun to join the division team, I remember that in the first two years, it was thanks to him that our academy won." ”
"What's the big deal, Hongxun was better than it back then!"
"Hongxun's eyes are empty, but he is very arrogant, and I can't get used to him for a long time. ”
"What that guy, sir!"
"Oh" Zhixue glanced at the prisoner and did not reply.
"Sijun looks kind and approachable all day long, but in fact he is the most hypocritical, in short, I can't get used to him!"
"Hehe, are you afraid that after he wins, you will be embarrassed to deduct his monthly allowance again, right?"
"Go and go, it's all business, how can there be favoritism, don't talk nonsense at a young age. Although Sijun is now a gentleman, he has only been teaching for less than a year after all, and he has little experience, how can he win over those old pedants. ”
"Dad, I have a crush on a girl......"
"Which girl?" the prisoner raised an eyebrow.
"The maid in our house. ”
"Descendant?" the eunuch snorted coldly, his face disdainful, "Dad will buy her in two days and make her a maid for you." Although you are not yet old enough to marry a wife, you might as well taste the sweetness first. Alas, it's not good to fall in love with the daughter of a family, but she actually looks down on a maid. ”
"By the way, what's her name?" asked the warden, looking up.
Zhixue smiled slyly and did not answer.
Under the weeping willows by the pond.
Evian, with her long hair, leaned comfortably on her lone shoulder, looking at the sparkling water in front of her.
"Brother Sijun, do you have something on your mind?" Evian tilted his head,
"I don't have anything on my mind, but I have an extra piece of flesh in my heart", Sijun grinned.
"Who's your heart?"
Sijun touched Evian's playful cheek, and calmly told her about today's academy evaluation.
"Brother Sijun's ability is much better than those people, and Jian Cheng really has no vision. Evian pouted.
"It's not unreasonable for Jian Cheng to choose like this, after all, I have been a teacher for less than a year, and I'm afraid I won't be able to convince the public" Sijun shook his head.
"Then why is Brother Sijun a little lost?"
Sijun grinned and said, "I'm thinking about when I'll be able to marry my sweetheart home." ”
Evian, who always seemed to be very lively and talkative, immediately blushed his cheeks, bit his lip, and was speechless for a while.
"Haha~" Seeing Evian's shy expression, Sijun couldn't help laughing.
"Humph!" Evian snorted, feigning displeasure.
The red sun, which is gradually sinking in the west, will sink into the mountains at some point......
Sijun glanced at the western skyline and said, "Okay, it's time to go home."
"Well, go home!"
"Brother Sijun, look, yellow bird!" Evian shouted as soon as he got up, pointing to the two beautiful birds with red claws and yellow feathers on the willow treetops.
"Red with yellow and bright ......," Sijun said casually.
The days passed unhurriedly, but it was still the second day of the fifth month soon.
The open square area in the center of Xiangjun City was crowded with people rubbing shoulders, and the sounds of discussion and shouting were mixed together, so it was not lively.
"In this bureau's division and captain team's 'Jingyi' evaluation, Baishi Academy won. Now Qingyi Academy has won three out of five, and if it wins the last chanting again, it can win the title of the first academy in Xiangjun from Baishi Academy. ”
I saw that a pulpit with a radius of nearly eight zhang, more than two people high, was polished by a whole boulder, which was simple and magnificent.
The pulpit was located in the middle of the square, and an old, pedantic man was standing on the pulpit, shouting at the top of his voice.
On the west side of the pulpit, in the pavilion. Jian Cheng held Hongxun's hand tightly and said in a heavy tone, "Hongxun, Qingyi Academy depends on you!"
The corners of Hongxun's mouth only rose, and he nodded, looking confident.
Then, he strode up to the pulpit and stood in front of a few cases on the west side of the pulpit.
His demeanor and movements are elegant, and his appearance is handsome and extraordinary, which makes the hearts of the girls in the audience flutter.
"The people selected by the two academies are all in place, and the recitation of the book is hereby announced. This college competition, chanting a one, and evaluating the bibliography for the new volume of academic politics!"
"Oh, it's broken!" the prisoner, who had stretched his neck and leaned over to look around, collapsed on the chair when he heard the name of the bibliography.
"Ah, a new volume of academic politics? How can a new volume of academic politics come out? Although Xuezheng is in the evaluation, we haven't seen the new paper yet!"
"This new volume has never been put into storage in our Qingyi Academy, how can we memorize it?"
"It must be the White Rock Academy that is making a stumbling block, and secretly knows that our academy has no new volumes, so we arranged for the county government to choose this book, which is unfair to us!"
In the pavilion on the west side, the gentlemen of Qingyi Academy were dissatisfied.
The old scholar on the pulpit didn't care much, and then said to himself, "As with the rules of the previous session, which academy has more recitals, it will determine which academy wins the game, now please ...... first."
"Plop!"
Before the old scholar could finish speaking, Hongxun fell straight on the pulpit......
