Chapter Fifty-Three: Taixue Starts School!(1/2)
"How did I know that they would disappear in a blink of an eye? I thought they could wait for me!" Shen Chulan said with an aggrieved look.
While the man was talking, he saw Xuruoxue slowly walking out of the crowd with a large peony lantern in her hand, followed by Shen Chuhan.
Shen Churan quickly stepped forward and said: "Sister Xue'er, I finally found you!"
Shen Chulan asked with a smile: "Have you seen the 'Lamp King'?"
Xuruoxue raised the big lantern in her hand: "Here, this is it."
Shen Chulan never expected that it would be Xuruoxue who won the title of "Lamp King" of this lantern festival: "Xue'er, I really can't believe that you have such ability!"
Xuruoxue pursed her lips slightly and her face turned slightly red: "It's not me, it's Brother Six!"
Shen Chuhan coughed lightly and said, "It's getting late, let's go back."
"It's true that we have been shopping for a long time." Xuruoxue looked at the sky and said, "Let's go back."
So the group of people walked towards the general's mansion.
Shen Chuyan and Shen Chufan also met with several people.
Shen Chuyan looked at Shen Chuhan with a smile: "The sixth brother I just saw is really graceful and graceful, and his martial arts has improved a lot."
Shen Chufan echoed: "I didn't expect that my sixth brother, who never likes excitement, would actually go to rob the Lantern King. It's really a rare thing."
Xu Ruoxue raised her head and glanced at Shen Chuhan. She saw that his face was not different, but he was very calm: "Brother, second brother, thank you."
All the brothers knew Shen Chuhan's temperament and simply stopped talking to him.
So, everyone gathered around Xuruoxue and told some interesting things about today.
When they arrived at the General's Mansion, Xu Yan saw Xu Ruoxue holding a big lantern in her hand and said with a smile: "It seems that you have gained a lot from this lantern festival!"
Xu Ruoxue walked up to Xu Yan with a smile and said, "Godmother, don't underestimate this lantern."
"Oh?" Xu Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, "Is there any other story here?"
"Of course." Xuruoxue continued, "This is the 'Lamp King' of this temple fair."
Xu Yan had heard about this 'Lamp King' and said with a smile: "This 'Lamp King' has a good meaning. I think it will make all your wishes come true."
Xuruoxue also responded with a smile.
Xu Yan chattered a few more words and then everyone left.
Xuruoxue also hurriedly left with the lantern in her hand.
After the Lantern Festival, it's time for the academy to start school again.
Because at the palace banquet, the emperor had said that he would select some students to go to the Imperial Academy, so the academy masters began to get busy.
Studying at Taixue University is a rare thing.
The admission qualifications for Taixue are different from those for ordinary colleges. It is not just about having good academic performance that can be admitted.
This also requires an assessment of how well you usually perform in the academy. Only those with outstanding overall performance will have the opportunity to enter Taixue University.
There is no doubt that all the Shen brothers were selected.
It turned out that Xuruoxue had just been in Changshan Academy for a short time, and apart from her schoolwork, the master knew very little about her.
However, when it was announced that Xu Ruoxue would be admitted to the Imperial College, she was successfully listed.
Xuruoxue felt a little strange, so she went to the master and asked about it.
Finally, when she learned that it was the emperor's appointment, Xuruoxue still looked excited and ready to make a move.
Xu Ruoxue didn't know much about Taixue's background, so she went to find her fourth brother Shen Chulan.
Shen Chulan has always been very interested in this kind of thing and knows a lot about it.
"Tai Xue can be said to be truly the number one aristocratic academy in the world." Shen Chulan said seriously.
"Who generally studies in Taixue?" Xuruoxue asked.
Shen Chulan continued to explain: "Tai Xue is different from the common people's academies that everyone knows. The students studying there are all the royal family and nobles. Only those who are admitted by the emperor are qualified."
"It turns out to be the academy that trains the royal children." Xuruoxue said thoughtfully.
Shen Chulan said with a smile: "Don't underestimate the Royal Academy, even someone as noble as the Crown Prince has to go to school."
Xu Ruoxue nodded and roughly understood the status of Taixue in everyone's hearts. She pulled Shen Chulan and asked for a while, and learned some inside stories.
As Shen Chulan narrated, she could not help but feel a bit of reverence silently.
According to convention, Taixue does not recruit children from aristocratic families.
But this year is special, as twenty-two children from aristocratic families have been recruited to study.
Taixue is divided into four levels, namely Tianzi Pavilion, Dizi Pavilion, Xuanzi Pavilion and Huangzi Pavilion.
Students are assigned to different levels of academies based on age and knowledge.
Of course, there are also some geniuses who pass the assessment and can apply to study in higher-level colleges.
As long as your ability is outstanding and astonishing, you may be able to sit on the benches of all four colleges within three months.
However, this situation is extremely rare. There are very strict requirements for admission from the beginning, so the assessment standards are relatively strict.
This is Taixue, the unique and supreme Royal Academy in the country!
At the thought of going to the most prestigious Royal Academy in the world with her brothers, Xuruoxue was so excited that she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
Although she didn't like reading these ancient texts, the thought of visiting the highest university was a very good experience.
The next day, before the rooster crowed, Xuruoxue was already pulled out of bed by Ling Shuang.
Xuruoxue got out of bed dressed in a daze, prepared all the things she needed to bring, and ordered them to be loaded into the carriage.
As soon as Xu Ruoxue walked to the gate, fifth brother Shen Churan stuffed a big baggage into her face.
"What is this?" Xuruoxue looked confused.
Shen Churan winked at him: "You can eat when you're hungry!"
After saying that, he got directly into the carriage in front.
Today, all the younger members of the Shen family are going to report to the Imperial Academy. For safety reasons, the Shen family brothers and Xuruoxue all chose to take a carriage to the Royal Academy.
Shen Chuyan and Shen Chufan were sitting on a carriage.
Shen Chunan got into the same carriage with a dark face and the noisy Shen Chulan.
I thought Shen Churan would sit together with Shen Chuhan, but who knew that Shen Churan was yawning and huddled together with Shen Chulan and others.
Shen Chulan looked confused: "Why don't you ride in a carriage with your sixth brother?"
"Lao Liu has been keeping a straight face all day, and I don't want to be hurt by his cold air early in the morning." After saying that, he leaned next to his third brother, "How about third brother go and squeeze in with Lao Liu?"
Shen Chunan was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened: "I won't go!"
In the end, the three of them were noisy and no one got out of the car.
Shen Chuhan walked outside the gate, opened the curtain and entered the narrow carriage.
At this time, Xuruoxue had already sat in and was startled when she saw Shen Chuhan.
"Why isn't Sixth Brother sitting with the other brothers?"
"I can't sit down!" Shen Chuhan said simply and clearly.
Xuruoxue was a little puzzled, but seeing that the other brothers were already seated, she thought that this was how the General Mansion arranged it, so she said nothing.
Shen Chuhan didn't take it seriously. Those people were always looking for something to say on the carriage. He didn't want to pay attention to them, so he kept a cold face.
Over time, they also knew Shen Chuhan's temper and simply stopped disturbing him.
Shen Chuhan didn't know what happened today. In the past, he took a carriage by himself for the sake of purity and didn't like riding with others.
Today, he took the initiative to come to Xuruoxue's carriage and walked up unexpectedly.
Shen Chuhan raised his eyes and looked at the mess filling the entire carriage, and frowned slightly.
Immediately, Shen Chuhan expressionlessly picked up a gaudy kettle.
"What's this?"
"Osmanthus tea, you can take it out and drink it when you are thirsty on the road. It is sweet but not greasy, and has a mellow fragrance... Hey, hey! What do you want to do?"
"threw."
"What?" Xuruoxue was stunned for a moment.
Shen Chuhan continued to look at the big bundle in her arms: "What is this?"
"The smoked dried meat was specially prepared for me by Fifth Brother. It can be eaten as a snack when I am bored..."
"Eat less."
"..."
Shen Chuhan held a covered book in his hand and asked, "Where is this?"
Xuruoxue answered honestly: "The storybook..."
To be continued...
