Chapter 56: A Broken Poem
The beginning of midwinter.
College Orientation.
This year, Shushan Academy will only admit more than 100 people.
However, thousands of students came to take the exam.
Ninety-nine stairs were crowded with people.
The forecourt was also packed.
The students were full of spirit and looking forward to it. They all felt that they would be one of the chosen ones.
Three, three, two, ear to ear, smiling, full of confidence.
.….….…
There are several prerequisites for the college to admit students.
1. Complete the student exam.
Second, as a practitioner.
Lingshan students, at least for Lifu.
Houhai students, at least for enlightenment.
Three, the age is not more than fifteen.
.….….…
The dawn of the morning.
The doors of the college were opened.
Luo Jianqing held the scroll in his hand and began to roll call.
The people who were called came out of the crowd one after another and walked into the academy.
.….….…
Chenshi.
The roll call is over.
The originally lively foreland and the ninety-nine stairs became empty again.
All that remained was the rustling of the woods in the wind.
As well as a small number of accompanying family members and entourage.
.….….…
College Square.
Despite the influx of thousands of students, the academy did not appear crowded.
Most of the people who came to apply for the academy were Lingshan students, and there were only dozens of people in Houhai.
A group of students sat on the floor at the square table.
On the square table, there is only pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
.….….…
The roll call and supervision by Luo Jianqing is enough to see the importance that the College attaches to the orientation of the new students.
After the students have all sat down.
Luo Jianqing said: "The topic of this year's academy is what is virtue. ”
The sound is not loud, but it is clear to the ears of all students.
Including the students of the college who are watching around.
As soon as Luo Jianqing's words fell, the candidates who were confident just now were all silent and pondering.
Some even cried loudly, and the question was too big to answer.
Qi Heng has already experienced this scene six times.
"Full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but rarely has family and country feelings." Qi Heng said to himself with a disdainful face.
As if he had discovered the top of the academy and had eyes on him, Qi Heng also turned his head unceremoniously and looked at it provocatively.
Some students were already ready to put pen to paper, only to hear Luo Jianqing continue: "The fifth midwinter, the fifth full branch, exempt from the exam." ”
The students who were about to answer instantly exploded.
Even the college students who were watching from the sidelines looked at each other.
This is a precedent that has never been seen before.
Since the establishment of the college, it has always adhered to these three prerequisites, and has never exceeded it, and there has never been an exception, let alone an exemption.
In the past, Chu Fanxi was at most borrowed from the Lishi Academy, and not many people regarded him as a student of the academy.
"It's not fair!"
Some of the students present were thoughtful, but most of them made a noise.
What's more, he stood up directly and questioned.
Luo Jianqing snorted lightly, and then the qi machine was released, intimidating everyone.
With a flick of his fingers, nearly 100 students who got up just now were all blasted out of the academy.
"The Academy's decision is beyond doubt, and I just inform you."
"If you want to know the reason, find out for yourself later."
The students felt the pressure and were silent.
Except for a boy who was about ten years old.
I saw the young man Lang, the corners of his mouth were not easy to detect, and he looked unimpressed.
.….….…
What is virtue.
The topic is too big and too broad.
Some students solve problems from morality, and some students start from kindness, sprinkle with enthusiasm, and work hard to write.
Only the boy.
The young man wrote five words on the paper, "If you are virtuous, you will be virtuous", and then threw the pen aside.
.….….…
Two hours later. It's noon.
Some students are still thinking hard, and some are still struggling to write.
I only heard Luo Jianqing shouting: "Stop writing and get up!" ”
Wait until everyone gets up.
In an instant, I saw that more than 100 answer sheets suddenly left the desktop and rose up.
Some people rejoice, others are sad.
Except for the young man.
The young man looked at the scene in front of him teasingly, and his fingers lightly tapped the tabletop.
Immediately, the paper on the young man's table also rose.
Originally, the papers that left the table were stagnant.
Apparently stunned by the sudden arrival.
But it's only a little bit of a stagnant.
Then, under the attention of everyone, all the vacated papers flew towards the academy.
.….….…
The court is boiling.
The fact that the two people in the academy were exempted from the examination aroused everyone's discussion and panic.
The seowon has always been a belief in people's hearts, just and sacred.
Today, however, the College's approach is unfair.
This has caused the faith of many people to collapse.
.….….…
Chaocheng Restaurant.
More than a dozen students sat around a table.
All of them had indignant expressions.
Although this table looks like a teenager, the restaurant does not dare to slack off, and vacates the entire second floor to entertain everyone.
After all, all of them are students.
Even if you don't get into the academy, you are still a student who has practiced.
"The academy is blatantly exempt from examinations, so what is the origin of the fifth midwinter and the fifth full branch?"
Sitting at the head is the heir of the Wei family, Wei Wuya.
When all the students heard this, they all shook their heads.
The teenager is impulsive after all.
A student suddenly slammed the table, got up and said angrily: "No matter who those two are, they must ask the academy to give an explanation." ”
Seeing that someone nodded in agreement, the student continued: "Let's go, let's go to the gate of the academy to meditate together, and ask the academy to give an explanation." ”
As soon as these words came out, no one responded.
The word academy has its own deterrent effect.
Everyone can only be indignant at the wine table, if they really dare to go to the academy for trouble.
Without the help of the academy, the elders of the family will kill their relatives in righteousness.
Just when the people at the table were still angry, suddenly a student ran upstairs.
As he ran, he shouted: "The fifth midwinter and the fifth full branch are the heirs of the eldest princess. ”
.….….…
Shushan Academy.
"Dean, that young man today...."
Jiang Xiayu was holding a piece of paper with "If you are virtuous", her face was slightly solemn.
The right hand soothed the white beard, thoughtful.
After a long while, he spoke: "When I turned around, I walked out of a different path. ”
The practice of the thick sea: enlightenment, enlightenment, seeing the sea, self-transcendence, rebirth, selflessness.
"A different path?" Luo Jianqing was full of consternation.
The reincarnation of Houhai is equivalent to the power of Lingshan, and it is not too amazing.
However, what is going on on a different path, Luo Jianqing is a little unsure.
Jiang Xiayu did not reply.
Luo Jianqing opened his mouth and asked, "Dean, do you need to kick him out of the academy, or kill him?"
Jiang Xiayu still maintained the action of caressing his white beard.
However, he raised his head, looked in the direction of the Destiny Star, and said, "Don't pay attention to it. ”
.….….…
Imperial capital, royal palace.
"Lord of the Kingdom, Midwinter and Manzhi have already entered the academy, do they need to be summoned to the palace?" Tang Yongren appeared abruptly again.
Midwinter and Manzhi are the nephews and nieces of Shu Shan Lie.
Shu Shan Lie was also suddenly reminded by these two names, and looked up in the direction of the garden.
After a while, he said, "Not for now." ”
"Jiang Xiayu knows that he takes care of them, after all, he was the closest to him twenty years ago, and he, the dean, is the most supportive."
.….….…
After Tang Yongren retreated, Shu Shanlie came to the garden alone.
It's winter again.
There are few flowers, only plums are waiting to be released.
This is also the place.
In the winter of that year, he wrote a residual poem for the eldest princess here:
Midwinter plum buds are full of angry branches.
The wind and clouds are broken, and the people are in harmony.
