Volume B, The Dew in the Morning

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Zheng Chongjian and Feng Ziying walked through the front yard and took a detour to pass the house.

House A and House B are far apart from each other, separated by a spacious shallow slope with a huge white stone on the slope.

The upper part of this white stone is round and smooth, while the lower part is thick and large, making it very ornamental.

Green sandalwood, willow, elm, locust and eucalyptus trees are scattered around the white stone.

One of the green sandalwood trees is particularly thick and strong, standing out from the crowd and attracting attention.

This is the green sandalwood tree that was planted by Xia Yan, the censor of Zuodu, and the Qingtan Academy got its name from this.

Students at Qingtan Academy like to walk around this area and chat during their breaks, either walking around the rocks, talking against them, or just leaning against the trees.

White stone and green sandalwood complement each other beautifully.

At this time, there were already two or three groups of people standing around the white stone and green sandalwood. When Zheng Chongjian and Feng Ziying appeared at the bottom of the shallow slope, they immediately attracted the attention of many people.

During this period, Feng Ziying also knew that it was not a good thing for him to be too popular, so after that teaching class, he stayed behind closed doors and rarely appeared in those places where he liked to argue, such as here.

Being in the limelight requires strength. In the academy, strength does not rely on your lintel or close relationship with the mountain chief or the head of the academy, but on your own ability.

The understanding of current affairs is certainly one thing, but for these young students whether in House A or House B, although most people can realize the importance of this, they are limited by age and experience after all.

The level of understanding is still a bit weak.

Therefore, more of their arguments and show of strength are reflected in the other two aspects, the meaning of classics and poetry.

Debates over classics and meanings are more likely to take place in schools, where policy discussions, poetry and poetry are the best stages for showing off and comparing.

Seeing several guys who were obviously a head taller standing with their hands behind their backs, Feng Ziying was a little confused. He also glanced at Zheng Chongjian subconsciously and said, "Brother Dazhang, what's going on? You're not from Jiashe? It seems to be Xiyuan.

Someone is coming."

The interior of Qingtan Academy is clearly divided. There are only twenty people in the West Garden, and they rarely come to the East Garden.

In their minds, the only goal is to be able to take the imperial examination. If they can be ranked in the top three, that will be the greatest honor.

As for the provincial examination, it is a thing of the past for them and they have no time to care about it.

Therefore, they didn't pay much attention to the group of junior students who were still working hard to pass the Qiuwei Township Examination. At most, they looked down on them as people who had experienced it.

Zheng Chongjian was also a little confused.

Chen Qiyu had previously told him to call Feng Ziying over. He only said that Jiashe wanted to discuss it with Feng Ziying. There was some unhappiness in his words. He probably thought that Jiashe valued Feng Ziying too much and underestimated them. Zheng Chongjian

He also comforted him with a few words.

Zheng Chongjian felt in his heart that Chen Qiyu had some subtle changes in his mentality since Feng Ziying came. He who had always regarded himself as the leader of Yishe seemed to feel Feng Ziying's challenge. Fortunately, Feng Ziying had shortcomings in classics and meanings, otherwise Chen Qiyu would have been

More uncomfortable.

Feng Ziying has never dealt with the seniors in Xiyuan. She only knows roughly that although Xiyuan only has less than 20 or 19 people, there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers among them. Even Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen are very powerful.

He admires a promising student, but he doesn't know him and has no chance to meet him.

After entering the academy, he limited himself to two points and one line, dormitory and classroom, which meant getting up early in the morning to practice boxing and going outside. The rest of the time was basically spent studying.

This life was boring and hard, but for a better life in the future, he knew it had to be like this.

In his previous life, he had gone through the college entrance examination and three years of high school in the same way, and it was not much easier than this.

On the one hand, it was for studying hard, but on the other hand, he did not want to have many entanglements with these seniors from Xiyuan until he had the strength to pass the Qiuwei Competition.

If you don't get involved in the East-West Garden dispute, you will only cause trouble.

But looking at today's situation, it seems that the wheels of history are rolling over again. I don't know whether I will be crushed into a dog, or whether I can become a blockbuster?

It seems that none of the results are very pleasant.

"Ziying, come and meet some senior brothers." Chen Qiyu obviously wanted to establish his status and took the first step to greet him.

Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng looked at Feng Ziying, obviously not paying attention to Chen Qiyu's actions.

After all, Houses A and B are right next to each other. Although they teach separately, everyone still gathers together during breaks. And because of their regional accents, many fellow students from Houses A and B prefer to talk together, so students from the two houses are no strangers.

.

"I've met Brother Mengzhang, Brother Keyao, and fellow seniors." Feng Ziying was not very familiar with Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng, but they knew each other and knew that they represented the northern scholars and the southern scholars in Jiashe respectively.

.

"Ziying is here." Fan Jingwen had a good impression of Feng Ziying.

In fact, although many people in the first class recognized Feng Ziying's ability, no one thought he could succeed in one subject.

Both Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng, including Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng, felt that it would be very rare for Feng Ziying to pass the provincial examination in the autumn of the following year. This possibility was relatively small. As for the next subject in the spring, even Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng themselves

If you don’t have much confidence, you won’t think that Feng Ziying has this ability.

Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng naturally don't have as many complicated emotions as Chen Qiyu for this kind of person who, although he performs well, does not threaten their status. They regard Feng Ziying more as a junior disciple who can give guidance and support.

.

Especially when facing people from Xiyuan, this kind of common hatred is even more necessary.

"Is this Junior Brother Feng Ziying?" A young man standing opposite Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng had sharp eyes and a rugged air. He walked around Feng Ziying for a few times and said with a leisurely smile: "Famous is not as good as meeting him. He is indeed a genius.

, no wonder the mountain chief and the commander of the mountain are full of praise for you, and it is not in vain for Mr. Qiao to recommend you."

Feng Ziying quickly bowed and said, "I have met all the senior brothers in Xiyuan."

Fan Jingwen took a step forward, held Feng Ziying's arm with one hand, and raised his other hand to bow, "Ziying, this is Senior Brother Xu Xianxu of Xiyuan, and this..."

Xu Xie? Feng Ziying had heard of this person.

Known as the number one scholar among Fujian students, Jinling Chongwen Academy and Baima Academy both wanted to admit him, but this boy came all the way to Qingtan Academy and became a leader among southern scholars.

"I have met Senior Brother Xingzhou." Feng Ziying bowed politely. Xu Xie was one of Guan Yingzhen's most admired disciples. It is said that Xu Xie was able to come to Qingtan Academy only because of Guan Yingzhen's invitation.

"Oh? Do you know me?" Seeing Feng Ziying call out her own name, Xu Xie was also a little surprised.

"Senior Brother Xingzhou is famous for his literary talents and virtues throughout Fujian. Even the scholars from Jiangnan have admired him for a long time. I am not blind and blind, how can I not know?" Feng Ziying said brightly.

Although Xu Xie was already used to hearing such compliments, but faced with this junior brother who was much younger than himself, and who was praised as an outstanding figure by both the mountain chief and the headmaster, he was still praised like this.

Some like it.

"Junior Brother Ziying is over-reputed. This is our senior martial arts practitioner from Xiyuan. You can call him..."

Before Xu Xie finished speaking, Feng Ziying nodded slightly: "I have long admired the name of Senior Brother Junyu. Senior Brother Junyu is both civil and military. Duke Qiao once mentioned it to me..."

Lian Guoshi was also quite surprised. It wasn't until Feng Ziying mentioned Qiao Yingjia that he realized that it was Qiao Yingjia who had mentioned him.

After the Spring Festival, Qiao Yingjia came to the academy and helped some disciples. Practicing state affairs was one of them. Qiao Yingjia valued it, so he mentioned it in front of Feng Ziying.

Qiao Yingjia values ​​​​the practice of state affairs. He even mentioned it to Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen. Naturally, he was somewhat grateful to Qiao Yingjia. In addition, Feng Ziying was so obedient and polite, and she was not as arrogant as those imagined Wu Xun playboys.

His slow attitude immediately won the favor of practicing state affairs.

"Junior Brother Ziying's heroic demeanor and his trip to Shandong are admirable. Brother Yu is just a few years older and has not made any achievements. How can he deserve the praise of Duke Qiao?" Lian Guoshi shook his head repeatedly, supported Feng Ziying with one hand, and smiled.

He said: "Originally I just took advantage of today's break to come over to see the junior brothers in Dongyuan. I heard that the junior brothers in Dongyuan intend to write a response strategy based on the article led by Ziying. I don't know if

Is there any such thing?"

The atmosphere in the whole scene suddenly became tense, and even the originally sunny weather seemed a bit colder.
