The guy replied: "The person who presides over the academy is our famous Mr. Shuijing in Yingchuan. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 As for the students of the college, we won't know until tomorrow's primary. ”

Only then did Wei Xuan know that if he wanted to enter Yingchuan Academy, he still needed to pass procedures such as entrance exams. But he was very impressed by Mr. Shuijing's name, and couldn't help asking, "Are you talking about Mr. Sima Hui?"

The guy nodded again and again: "It turns out that the son also knows Mr. Sima's name." ”

Wei Xuan didn't answer, took out a small ingot of broken silver and threw it to the guy, waved his hand, and said, "You can stand down." ”

The guy shook it, about two cents in weight, and immediately smiled, thanked him, and went happily.

Wei Xuan shook his head secretly, he was deeply impressed by Sima Hui, not because of Sima Hui's talent or reputation, but because Sima Hui had recommended Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, two famous military advisors, to Liu Bei in history. He always thought that Sima Hui was from Xiangyang, but now he knew that Sima Hui was originally from Yingchuan, and he knew far less about this era than he himself thought. It seems that it is not easy to mix the Three Kingdoms with familiar people.

......

Early the next morning, the guy came again and led Wei Xuan to Yingchuan Academy. Wei Xuan knew that this was all the credit of those two coins of silver, and many times it was very useful to spend a little money.

Along the way, the guy told Wei Xuan a lot about Yingchuan Academy. Originally, this Yingchuan Academy was mainly built by the Xun family, jointly built by several big families in Yingchuan, mainly for the children of Yingchuan. Unless it is particularly excellent, it is generally not accepted from outsiders. Wei Xuan realized that he was still fooled by the innkeeper. Fortunately, his purpose was not to enter any academy, but to have some contact with the Xun family, but he didn't care much.

Yingchuan Academy is located in the southwest corner of Yingchuan City, covering a wide area, which was destroyed in the Yellow Turban Rebellion and has been rebuilt, so there is a theory that the academy will be reopened.

At this moment, the entrance of the academy is already crowded, not only the children of local big families, but also many foreign talents who come here. Yingchuan Academy is not an enlightenment private school, it recruits young people over the age of sixteen or seventeen, and Confucian students over thirty years old can also be seen everywhere, Wei Xuan does not stand out in the crowd.

It was not until the end of the day that the gate of the academy opened, and a group of dignitaries walked out of it. These people include officials of Yingchuan County, heads of local noble families, and celebrities from surrounding counties who come to congratulate.

I only heard one of the gray-haired old men say loudly: "Disciple Yingchuan, please enter the hospital from the left." ”

There was a commotion in the crowd outside the courtyard gate, and fifty or sixty richly dressed young talents stepped into the academy with their heads held high, attracting the eyes of envy, jealousy and hatred all around.

Wei Xuan also looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect Yingchuan Township to be so rich." ”

The innkeeper smiled: "Gongzi doesn't know, the academy only accepts the children of the scholar clan, so they are brightly dressed." As for us ordinary people entering the academy, we don't have to think about it. ”

Wei Xuan knew that in this era, there were scholars and scholars, and they did not marry each other. Even if a Shu woman occasionally marries into a scholar family, she can only be a concubine, not a wife. Wei Xuan is also a child of the scholar family, although the Cai family in Yuxian County has declined, it is still among the scholars, so Cai Yan was able to marry into the Wei family.

It's just that Wei Xuan didn't expect that even a private academy would have to make a clear distinction between the scholars, which was not conducive to the selection of talents at all. But it's normal to think about it, this academy was jointly funded and established by several major scholars in Yingchuan, and of course there is no obligation to cultivate talents for the common people.

At this time, I heard the old man say again: "The reopening of the academy is a great joy, and today we made an exception to recruit ten children from other countries to show off their affairs." ”

There was a burst of cheers all around. The innkeeper also said to Wei Xuan with excitement on his face: "Congratulations to Gongzi, congratulations to Gongzi." ”

Wei Xuan said strangely: "Where does the joy come from?"

The man said: "In previous years, the academy recruited children from other countries, and it was limited to two people, but today is a good opportunity for the son. ”

Wei Xuan couldn't help but be amused, there were three hundred people from the countryside around, and there were two and ten people recruited from them, was there much difference between that? Of course, these words couldn't be said to the guys. He looked up ahead and asked, "Is that Mr. Shui Jing talking?"

"This is the second master of my family, Xun Qixun. The man suddenly pointed to the entrance of the academy and said, "Childe, please look, the one who just came out is Mr. Shuijing." ”

Wei Xuan took a look, and it turned out that Mr. Shuijing Sima Hui was a personable middle-aged man.

Sima Hui glanced at everyone and arched his hand: "You are here, making the academy shine." However, when the plaque of the college has been destroyed for a long time, I would like to ask you to write another plaque, how about it?"

While speaking, someone had already brought a few cases of paper and pens, and even put one in front of Wei Xuan. Wei Xuan understood that this was to test the calligraphy of these foreigners. For entering the academy, Wei Xuan was originally indispensable, but at this moment, he couldn't help but be ambitious.

If you talk about the attainments of calligraphy, the government and the opposition are the first to recommend Cai Yong, the old man of Wei Xuan. It's a pity that Wei Xuan didn't have the opportunity to get Cai Yong's guidance, his calligraphy skills are all passed on from Wei Zhongdao's remaining memories, and it is not easy to stand out among so many people, unless he finds another way.

Wei Xuan thought about it for a while, and already had an idea. He picked up the pen and neatly wrote the four big characters of Yingchuan Academy in block letters on the paper, and signed his name, Hedong Weizhongdao.

This trick really worked, Sima Hui was stunned for a moment when he saw Wei Xuan's work, then pondered, and said for a while: "Dare to ask which one is the son of Hedong Wei?"

Wei Xuan got up and arched his hand: "Wei Xuan has seen Mr. Sima. ”

Sima Hui replied with a serious salute and asked, "I don't know what font Wei Gongzi's book is?"

Wei Xuan replied, "This is in italics. Boxy and exemplary. ”

Sima Hui asked again: "I don't know who passed on the italics of Gongzi Wei?"

In this era, the common is the official book, the regular script is the early Jin Dynasty only evolved from the official book, where Wei Xuan went to find the inheritance, can only pick up himself, said with a smile: "This is Wei's leisure game, and no one teaches it." ”

Seeing that Wei Xuan was young, but he was able to create his own calligraphy, Sima Hui was very surprised, but he also nodded secretly, and he had acquiesced in his heart that Wei Xuan had passed the entrance exam.

Of course, the whole admission exam is not over, and calligraphy is only a primary selection. After this round of elimination, only fifty people remained, and Wei Xuan was among them, and the ten outlanders who were finally selected would be produced from among them.

Sima Hui looked around, and came up with a second question, asking everyone to write an essay on the topic of today's reopening of the academy, the genre is optional, and the poetry can be given.

Song and Fu are too difficult for Wei Xuan. He still has a few Tang poems in his stomach, but there are no works for the occasion. This topic made him a little embarrassed.
