Chapter 20: Seeing Jinling (2)

After saying goodbye to Weiyang and Shi Yanyan, Yanlai walked along the riverbank alone. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Knowing that the two had "private matters" to solve, he proposed to go first, and Weiyang didn't say anything, and finally comforted: If you want to open some, there is no grass at the end of the world, and there is a lot of fishing on the Qinhuai River.

Jiangning used to be the imperial capital, but it was in the era when a hundred schools of thought contended, and now the old country died early, and the Forbidden City is naturally not left, and now standing there is the Confucian Museum.

The Confucian Museum does not refer to a single school, but a general term, where there are many great Confucian scripture halls, which can be entered by anyone who hears them, and from time to time there will be a canon conference, which has become an aura early.

The status of Confucianism in the south is beyond imagination, that is, the average knight wants to go to the Confucian Museum to listen to the class, and he will consciously change into a shirt to show respect, and the officials will consciously dismount when passing by, and what they are afraid of is to disturb the Yaxing of the scholars.

The place where Yan Lai got off the boat was not far from the Confucian Museum, and as he walked, he heard the sound of reading, and he felt strange for a while, so he moved over.

When late at night, the Quartet Hall is neatly distributed like a chessboard, the whole Confucian Museum is a completely open structure, only the southeast and northwest places have a stone archway, the three words of the Confucian Museum are written, and under each archway, there will be a billboard, in addition to some matters that need attention, it is a daily announcement.

Yan Lai sighed a little, these people's studious heart is really not covered, Qinhuai River is not far away, but these guys can still calm down and study here, it is really an obvious contrast, the intention is extraordinary, although I have not seen those hard-working students, but my heart has given birth to admiration.

Just this easy to learn word has outperformed countless mediocre people.

By the light of the stone candlesticks on both sides, Yan Lai stopped in front of the billboard, and naturally understood what taboos were here, so as not to break the rules.

The general direction is also those, do not make noise, do not enter with a sword, and do not fight inside, to put it bluntly, it is to create a quiet and harmonious environment.

As for the small details of the regulations, it is not so profound, because he can't only enter with a sword, he can't do it now, how to say that this sword is all earned by himself, where can he rest assured.

He chuckled, it seemed that after he came to this world, he still had no chance to study, and was destined to do something to fight and kill.

"What's funny about this announcement?"

Yan Lai turned his head, and it was a middle-aged man with a long body and an isolated body, wearing a brocade shirt and carrying a red lantern to guide the way, looking at him with his negative hands.

"Excuse me, sir. Yan Lai made a gesture and explained: "The younger generation occasionally passed by the Confucian Pavilion and saw that this rule said that you should not enter with a sword, so I was helpless and laughed for a while. ”

The middle-aged man carrying the lantern stroked the long beard on his chest and said indifferently: "Just put the sword down." ”

Yan Lai said casually: "I can't put it down." ”

The middle-aged man smiled slightly: "Why?"

Yan looked at his long sword and said with a smile: "The guy who eats." ”

"Read good books and have food. ”

Hearing that the other party seemed to be playing a sharp game, Yan Lai was not polite: "But you have to fill your stomach first before you have the strength to study." ”

"What kind of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith can't fill your stomach?"

"How can you eat if your heart is intentional but it is difficult to do it?"

The middle-aged man's eyelids jumped lightly, and it was the first time that someone had said a lazy word so straightforwardly, fresh and refined.

He walked to the bulletin board and looked at the announcement that Yan Lai had just read: "The sage hears his intentions, and the master practices his deeds, it seems that this rule has to be slowly improved." ”

"You just came from the Qinhuai River?"

Yan Lai was stunned for a moment, not knowing how the other party guessed, and nodded.

The middle-aged man smiled: "The smell of rouge on your body." ”

Yan Lai was suddenly disturbed with some shame: "Friends invited, so I took a boat." ”

"Usually, there are a lot of people who go out from here to Qinhuai, but from Qinhuai, there are very few people who come here, why are you?"

This middle-aged man is also interesting, and the gossip is endless, but Yan Lai doesn't think the other party is noisy, and even thinks that chatting with him is quite pleasant, at least in his senses, the other party has an easy-going bearing.

Yan Lai shrugged: "No one looks down on me." ”

The middle-aged man was surprised and looked him up and down: "No, could it be that you have some hidden illness?"

Yan Lai laughed: "Mr. thinks too much." ”

"Since you can't enter the academy, why don't you walk with me?"

"Where are you going?" Yan Lai was not polite.

"Qin Huai. The middle-aged man moved the lantern and pointed in the direction.

"That. Yan Lai patted his waist: "The money is not much, the wine and meat are acceptable, but the human flesh is not good." ”

The middle-aged man looked at him as if he wanted to look into his bones, and after a long time, he laughed, as if he had heard some undesirable joke.

"You follow me, you don't have to pay for it. ”

Yes, you can bump into a wayward tyrant in this way, and looking at his silk shirt, it shouldn't be blown.

The two walked side by side.

"What is your surname, sir?"

"I lecture in the Confucian Museum, and the students call me Mr. Xishan. ”

Yan Lai expected it to be good, but this person is interesting, he doesn't have such an impression of himself, he eats ancient food, and he eats color in a mouthful, but he can't see any dirt from him, as if everything in this world is feasible for him, ridiculous and discardable, how to describe it?

The word free and easy is not enough, there should be a merry bar, such people really made the article into the stock, and they are detached from the outside.

"What about you?"

"The swallow comes, the swallow of the bird, the return comes. ”

"What's the meaning?"

Seeing that he seemed to have many problems, Yan Lai also deliberately showed off, and muttered: "After the rain, it is another red pigment." The swallow returned silently, and the old nest was nowhere to be found. Who is working hard in Yuguan, who is singing and dancing in Yulou. If the dust can be blown away, the east wind will wait for ten thousand households. ”

The middle-aged man stroked his beard while listening, and the further back he went, the brighter his eyes became: "This jade is easy to understand, but what kind of dust is this Hu Chen?"

"An imaginary enemy is just a barbarism in the north. ”

"This is your ambition to lift your sword and abandon your book?"

Yan Lai didn't answer, but asked, "What is the solution of Xishan?"

The middle-aged man smiled, this kid was not polite: "The sun is thinning." ”

"Sir is going to live to be an old man so soon?"

"Whether it's fame or fame, or thousands of households, in the end it's all a piece of soil, you have a lot of ink and ink in your chest, and you are a well-versed person, isn't it good to leave some articles for the ages?"

Both of them answered the question, but Yan Lai asked rhetorically after hearing it: "In the end, live into the waning mountains?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's hard to teach." ”

Someone to accompany the talk, the distance is not far, Yan Lai is naturally the first time to Jiangning City, although I remember the map, but some alleys and alleys are only the local people like to go, the middle-aged man is like this to lead him interspersed, and soon the surrounding environment is becoming more and more noisy.

The banks of the river embankment are lined with willows, but now they are crowded with people, and I don't know what is lively.

"Trouble let's go. ”

The middle-aged man's lantern was slightly raised, and Yan Lai knew that people wanted to go forward, and without saying a word, he acted as the old business that opened the way for the Gao County Order in the past.

At this moment, I found that many of the people gathered here were people from the rivers and lakes, and there were men and women, old and young, which was really strange.

Seeing that Yan Lai was about to squeeze over, some people were displeased.

"Squeeze what, you have your share. ”

"The kid is looking for death, isn't it? ”

"What a good minion. ”

"Ouch, who's who, touch my ass. ”

"This eldest sister, you can talk nonsense, but you can't do things randomly. ”

Yan Lai is also faceless, and has been smiling to open the way for middle-aged people, but the further forward he goes, the better the quality of people is, and you can see that most of them are dignified young heroes, and there is no shortage of outstanding neon skirts.

Thirty steps away from the river, the atmosphere is different, and it is as clear as a clear distinction, the outside is crowded into a ball, but the people inside stand very loosely, as if each has an acre and three points of land, no one will lean over, and naturally no one is allowed to lean in.

What is strange is that the people outside are very conscious of standing outside, forming a circle as if watching the excitement, and will not stand inside.

"You see, that is Su Shaoxia of Xiaogushan. ”

"Hou Gongzi is also here, oh my God, can he look back at me. ”

"Gongzi Zheng, I am Su Majuan from Qingyue Pavilion, I love you. ”

"Ahh ”

A bunch of pipa and green willow-like ladies opened the mode of meeting idols, throwing the handkerchief flying, those who were called, occasionally a few people will turn around and smile, raise their hands to greet, and suddenly attract their respective admirers to shout, as for those who do not look back, they also maintain the old demeanor, heroic and graceful under the blowing of the river breeze, and they are obviously more sultry.

In addition to men, women standing within thirty paces of the river are also hotly discussed.

"The one who is close to Su Gongzi is his junior sister Linglong Sword Shen Shuyi. ”

"Look, the breeze sleeve dance Huo Ciyue is also here. ”

"What's more, look at the one at the front, Gao Mengzhen is the master. ”

"The great leader of the eighteen heroines of Lianyunbao?"

"It's her, but she should be the only woman among the ten masters, and the chess and card Lao Jiu Feng Xiaoxiao didn't see anyone. ”

"Seven of the Ten Heroes of Qingyun have already arrived, do you think they will all arrive tonight. ”

"Wrong, it's nine and ten, don't forget what day it is. ”

"Yes, yes, look at my pig brain. ”

"What day is today?" asked Yan Lai curiously.

The young man who spoke before glanced at the young man, and didn't want to talk, but when he saw the middle-aged man with the lantern beside him, he felt that his bearing was extraordinary, so he was no longer stingy and said: "Ruyifang announced the new nine-list ranking tonight, and also invited the medicine masters of Luoyang to board the boat to help the fun, and the young heroes who were named next will go by boat to participate in the feast, and see if there is it, it is the big ship." ”

Looking at the target of the other party's finger, he noticed that there was a big flower boat in the center of the river, which was almost the same size as the patrol boat that escorted Xue Shi into Beijing, and three large lanterns were erected on the mast, and the three characters of Ruyifang were really eye-catching.

Yan Lai remembered that when he met Situ Ying and others in the tea shop, those resting passers-by were talking about what Qingyun Bang and Jiubang were, and he was still fascinated by it at the time, but after all, there were many things, and he was in a hurry, so he left it behind.

I still remember that the Qingyun List of the Martial Arts Division was postponed until March 3, and the nine lists of Ruyifang were more popular in the minds of the Jianghu people than the Qingyun List of the imperial court.

However, the third day of March has already passed, and the Qingyun List has also come out for a while, looking at this posture, many people should be dissatisfied with the ranking of the Qingyun List, and now that I heard that the ninth list was opened, I came to preach.
