Linlu Academy is located outside the eastern city of Wangque.

Tucked away hundreds of miles away in the secluded and beautiful foothills.

Adjacent to the desecration.

It can be said that it is surrounded by mountains on one side and accompanied by water on the other.

Lam Lu Academy is one of the two Confucian academies in Wangque Chau.

The thousand-year-old string song is endless, and the context is extended.

Occupy half of the Confucian Taoist system in Wangque Continent.

It is the holy place of reading that Confucian students dream of at the foot of Yizhou Mountain.

A scholar who walked out of Linlu Academy.

There are eloquent talents who govern the country and support the society, there are famous Confucians with splendid articles and profound knowledge, and there are lonely people with lofty aspirations and hidden in the landscape.

In the mountains, the immortal lords or the secular dynasties under the mountains spread Confucianism and Taoism, and fought for a hundred schools.

In Zhao Rong's view, Linlu Academy is the "lighthouse" of Zhongzhou Confucian Temple established in Wangque Zhou.

Although the Xuanhuang realm is a hundred schools, the storm whirlpool of interrogation and contention is in the distant Tunanzhou.

But several other continents in the world were also hit by the waves set off by the storm.

Zhao Rong alone traveled all the way, passed through those national dynasties, and saw no less than ten schools that were respected by the rulers of the dynasty, and Confucianism and Taoism were only one of them.

Other schools of thought were also arranged in Wangque Chau.

However, according to Zhao Rong's observation, the continuous cultivation of scholars from Linlu Academy and Siqi Academy still made Confucianism one of the few prominent scholars on and off Wangque Zhou Mountain, and the Confucianism was quite popular.

About its establishment.

Legend has it that a Confucian sage first led his disciples on a study tour from Zhongzhou to the ends of the earth.

Obey the teachings of the Holy Master "A gentleman must see the river when he sees it", and stop to watch the water.

The Confucian sage had an understanding.

He left his disciples and established a academy here to inherit the cultural lineage......

This morning.

The wind and the sun are beautiful, the mountains and forests, the birds are like washing, and the air is fresh.

The sound of the rolling waves of the river not far away was faintly heard.

Zhao Rong took a deep breath and jumped off the carriage.

He smiled back.

"Miss Xiaowan, I'm glad to be miserable. ”

Lu Wan, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at Zhao Rong, who disappeared all afternoon yesterday and came back at night, and always felt that he seemed to be a little different from before.

But it's not a difference.

Or is it the same simple Confucian shirt as before, well, it seems that the pair of good-looking jade plates on the waist are missing, and today I suddenly carried a bookcase, this is to go to Linlu Academy to study?

She had brought a few confident scholars here, but most of them were ......

Lu Wan shook his head, didn't think about it anymore, and said with a smile instead:

"If Zhao Gongzi wants to go a long way, just shake the bell and say goodbye. ”

Zhao Rong nodded slightly, waved his hand, and turned to leave.

Not much.

He walked through a small forest of mountains.

Looking up, in the distance is a large-scale, rigorous and well-organized building complex.

The exterior of the academy reveals its clear water mountain wall, gray and white, which is particularly fresh and bright.

It is built on the mountain, the front is low and the back is high, layer upon layer, and it is scattered.

It is also covered by trees, and dotted with pavilions, and the hills are undulating, and the cornices are warped.

The overall is simple and solemn, elegant and generous.

In Zhao Rong's eyes, it constitutes a quiet and beautiful picture of the integration of mountains and rivers.

Zhao Rong's eyes were novel, carrying the bookcase on his back, and his steps accelerated.

Although the academy is hidden in the deep mountains and forests in the suburbs, pursuing a quiet and leisurely reading environment, there are also fireworks around it.

After all, there are many gentlemen and students in this entire academy, and there are also a lot of scholars who come from afar.

Many open-air taverns, elegant inns, paper and ink bookstores, cultural and antique shops and other buildings are scattered around the academy.

It is a small and lively market.

When Zhao Rong came from afar, it was inconspicuous.

Because there are many scholars like Zhao Rong around.

However, some of them are dusty and poorly dressed, and some are embroidered and luxurious.

But it seems that they are all here to study.

Zhao Rong stood among the crowd, looked left and right, leaned back, and put away the flag embroidered with the word "Lin Lu" on the bookcase without moving.

Because there are too many scholars who hang this flag......

He blinked, feeling that it seemed a little difficult to enter this Linlu Academy.

But......

Zhao Rong glanced left and right and smiled crookedly.

We're different.

After a while, he came to the gate of Linlu Academy.

I saw that the academy was not as grand and tall as Zhao Rong imagined, and it was even worse than the gate of the Great Chu State Prison where Zhao Rong was once located.

It is solemn and simple, without carving and painting, but embellished with simplicity.

At first glance, it is ordinary, not at all like the row of a well-known Confucian academy.

However, Zhao Rong feels that this is actually the most impressive.

There is a couplet posted outside the main gate of the college.

Unique;

Horizontal batch: Linlu Academy.

There is momentum.

He nodded slightly.

It's very good, and like Ben Gongzi, he is low-key and high-profile......

I saw that there were not many people at the gate of the academy, and only occasionally some Confucian students dressed in standard clothes and wearing jade bi came in and out.

These should be scholars and scholars, listening to Lin Wenruo, scholars and scholars will wear jade.

Zhao Rong found that there didn't seem to be many people outside the gate.

He looked left and right, a little strange.

Didn't I hear that countless scholars from the mountain come here every year to study, and there were quite a few scholars on the road just now, why did they disappear as soon as they arrived at the gate of the academy?

Zhao Rong felt that something was wrong and walked around.

After some inquiry, I learned that the assessment of Linlu Academy's recruitment of disciples this year had ended not long ago.

Even the initiation ceremony for the new disciples had already been held a few days ago.

This triennial one, although extremely strict, is also the most likely opportunity to enter Linlu Academy has passed.

Many of the scholars who were not selected went back disheartened.

Of course, there are also many scholars who are not discouraged, and will still stay near Linlu Academy to find another slim opportunity, such as ...... He was valued by a certain college gentleman and recommended to join the college.

And the reason why there are no scholars waiting at the gate is because the gentlemen of Linlu Academy generally do not go through the main gate, but enter and exit through the side gate on the north side every day.

Zhao Rong suddenly, there is still this kind of Taoism?

He followed the general direction, walked around the academy, and after a while, he came to a side door.

From a distance, it was crowded.

Zhao Rong took a closer look, and there were all scholars similar to him, dressed roughly the same, with different expressions, and they were looking forward to it in front of the side door at this time.

He looked around with interest.

The scenery around the side door is beautiful, it is a quiet place, but there are too many people waiting, and it is not that elegant, and it is very lively.

Directly opposite the side door was a bamboo forest, and Zhao Rong walked under the shade of the broken trees, and did not crowd in front of the door with the large group of scholars in front of him.

Under the bamboo forest, Zhao Rong's surroundings were also sparse or standing or sitting, and some scholars seemed to be resting.

Zhao Rong glanced at the crowd in front of him.

So, they are all waiting for Mr. College to go out, and then they all rely on their abilities?

He raised an eyebrow.

But what's the use of you squeezing in front of you?

Zhao Rong waited leisurely in the back.

Slowly, the sun was rising in the middle of the day, and it was close to noon.

But the closed door was so simple that there was not even a couplet, and the wooden door still didn't open.

No one came out of the academy.

But the crowd crowded at the door was quiet, almost no one communicated, and they were all waiting quietly.

And except for a few people who are in groups, most of the scholars seem to come alone, and their eyes at others are more or less cold and guarded.

Zhao Rong was not in a hurry, he stood in the shade of the tree, staring at the wooden door, took out dry food and water, and ate it.

It seemed like he was alone at lunch.

Many people around him noticed him, but most of them looked at him a few times before moving away, without any expression.

Zhao Rong bit the dry food and took in all of it.

Well, it's noon on these people, and they haven't come up with food yet...... It seems that Mr. College is coming out soon, is it the end of class? I guess it is.

Zhao Rong looked at the people around him staring at the wooden door seriously, thinking casually.

At this time.

Squeak———

The wooden door was opened from the inside.

The crowd boiled instantly, and many people in front of them squeezed forward with a change of face......

Zhao Rong put down the dry food in his hand and stood up and looked at it in an instant.

Saw.

Wooden door quilt

After pushing it all away...... No one?

Zhao Rong tiptoed.

Oh, someone.

His gaze barely passed through the crown of everyone's heads, and he saw a slightly low, slender figure.

That's this little scholar in blue, with red lips and white teeth......

Oh, it's just a girl.

Zhao Rong pouted, he had seen a lot of this road, but ......

Hey, why are the people at the door retreating when they see that little scholar?
