Master Cangming sat cross-legged on the white crane calmly and calmly.
"Old man, Emperor Yongwen clearly knew where Saint Wu was, but he didn't tell you and even said that Saint Wu was traveling around!"
A magnetic male voice came from Bai He's mouth.
"Of course I know he's hiding something from us, but since he didn't say anything, it means that old boy Wu Xuanzi told him, so there's no need for us to be aggressive!"
Master Cangming stroked his beard and said nonchalantly: "Besides, when we go down the mountain this time, we have other things to do."
"Then where should we go next?" Bai He asked.
"Go to Kaiyuan Mansion!" Master Cangming said.
"Kaiyuan Mansion? That's not the place we passed before coming to the capital? Why did we go back again? Old man, are you just wandering around?" Bai He said angrily.
"Yeah?"
Master Cangming usually travels on a white crane, so he really didn’t pay attention to this. “Okay, just think of it as a swan!”
white crane:"……"
After being defeated again and again, he could only flap his wings and fly towards Kaiyuan Mansion.
Tang family.
Since the school test, Tang Xiaoyu has been immersed in reviewing every time she goes home. If she doesn't understand something, she will ask Tang Qingshan.
Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Liu also heard that Tang Xiaoyu's school test was not satisfactory, and they also knew that this school test was a huge blow to Tang Xiaoyu.
But seeing Tang Xiaoyu studying late into the night every time, Ms. Liu felt extremely distressed.
Mrs. Tang on the side saw this and sighed, "I know you feel sorry for Xiaoyu, but after all, this is something Xiaoyu must experience!"
In fact, Mrs. Tang did not expect that Tang Xiaoyu ranked last in the school test.
After all, Tang Xiaoyu has been studying and literacy with the Liu family since she was a child. Not to mention she is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is not much better than most children of the same age.
However, now it seems that this is only relative to the outside world. In the small town, Tang Xiaoyu is just average.
This made Mrs. Tang sigh.
It’s no wonder that there are so many candidates passing the exam every year in Bufan Academy.
"Mom, I know, actually this may be a good thing for Xiaoyu!"
Although Mrs. Liu felt sorry for her daughter, she also understood that after this incident, Tang Xiaoyu's arrogance could be restrained.
"It's good if you understand!"
Mrs. Tang nodded slowly.
Ever since Ms. Liu understood that this town was special, she no longer treated the residents of the town as arrogantly as before. She often accompanied her to visit the homes of some older sisters, and she made friends with some ladies.
Perhaps because she has made many friends with the ladies in the town, Liu has become open-minded, polite and modest, and her temperament has also changed a lot.
Naturally, Tang Xiaoyu didn't know what was going on outside.
At this moment, she held a book and asked Tang Qingshan. Tang Qingshan explained everything one by one, but Tang Xiaoyu was still confused.
"Brother, I feel that your explanation is not as good as that of our school teacher!" Tang Xiaoyu muttered at the corner of her mouth.
"It's natural. The talent and learning of every gentleman in the school is not weaker than that of a Jinshi. In other words, as long as they want to, a Jinshi is just something they can easily capture!" Tang Qingshan explained with a chuckle.
"It's great here, so why do they want to stay in the small town to teach? Isn't it good to be an official?"
Tang Xiaoyu's eyes widened. Most of the teachers she knew were students who had failed the exam.
"If the dean is not more knowledgeable, why do you think he wants to stay in the small town and become a mayor without rank?" Tang Qingshan asked with a smile.
"Let me ask you, why do you still ask about me?" Tang Xiaoyu complained.
Tang Qingshan smiled faintly and looked out the window at the night, "Xiaoyu, do you think Nomiao Town is beautiful today?"
Although Tang Xiaoyu didn't know why Tang Qingshan asked these questions for no reason, she still thought about it and said, "Mei, this place is very clean and tidy!"
"Yeah, it's beautiful. It doesn't look like a small town at all!"
Tang Qingshan sighed: "But do you know what the place was like more than thirty years ago? You won't believe it if I tell you!"
"What kind of place?" Tang Xiaoyu asked curiously.
"In a remote and poor small village, if you want to get out from here, you have to climb at least a few mountains. Not to mention studying here, even eating is a problem!"
Tang Qingshan recalled what he heard from the academy, with a look of reverence in his eyes.
"The dean grew up in such an environment. He lost his parents when he was young, and he grew up relying on the financial support he received from helping people in the village..."
Tang Qingshan recounted some of the past events he heard from the academy bit by bit.
For example, Bu Fan refused to join the Immortal Sect and was willing to become a disciple of a secular doctor, just because he wanted to do something for the village.
Another example is that if you help a big landowner solve a difficult and complicated disease, you can obviously get a generous reward, but you politely refuse. However, in order to repay the favor, the big landowner built a small road leading outside.
"Later, the dean became the village chief, and he devoted himself to the village, building schools, teaching and educating people, and setting up workshops so that the people in the village had enough to eat.
It even delayed the marriage, causing everyone in the village to urge him to get married quickly, but the dean didn't care about this.
Because in his opinion, the village's affairs are more important than marriage affairs, and the dean did this just to repay the kindness of the village!"
Tang Qingshan's tone and expression were full of reverence.
"Someone once said to the dean that if he wants to leave the village, just leave without being reluctant, but do you know what the dean said at that time?"
"The dean said that rather than him alone gaining fame, it would be better for him to teach a group of disciples who have merit!"
"And the fact is exactly as the dean said at the beginning, he taught a group of famous disciples!"
A man with an elegant face appeared in Tang Xiaoyu's mind.
She never imagined that the mayor, who was respected by everyone in the town, was a pitiful poor child who needed help from the villagers when he was a child.
"Xiaoyu, there are people in the world who are obsessed with power, but there are also gentlemen who are indifferent to fame and wealth and are dedicated to serving the public and the people. The dean and the gentlemen in the academy are such transcendent existences." Tang Qingyun said with a smile.
"I seem to understand a little bit what you mean!" Tang Xiaoyu was silent for a moment and nodded.
"That doesn't mean it's difficult for me to surpass Xiao Xibao. Xiao Xibao has her father's guidance!" Tang Xiaoyu suddenly felt depressed.
"You can say that!"
Tang Qingshan doesn't want to break Tang Xiaoyu's fantasy, but this is the fact.
"I knew I would have promised Xiao Xibao to study with her father!" Tang Xiaoyu regretted a little.
"What did you say?" Tang Qingshan asked suddenly.
"Brother, what's wrong with you? I was almost scared to death by you!"
Tang Xiaoyu patted her frightened chest.
But Tang Qingshan didn't care so much. He looked excited and put his hands on Tang Xiaoyu's shoulders, as if he was stimulated by something.
"Brother, what do you want to do? I'm your sister!"
Tang Xiaoyu's face was a little frightened, and she subconsciously covered her chest with her hands.
Tang Qingshan frowned. He thought what Tang Xiaoyu said was a bit strange, but at the moment he had no time to pay attention to Tang Xiaoyu's words and asked.
"Did you just say that Xiao Xibao asked you to study with her father?"
"Yes, I didn't do well in the school test last time. Xiao Xibao said that her father is very powerful and asked me to study with her father!" Tang Xiaoyu nodded.
"Then did you agree?" Tang Qingshan asked.
"No!"
Tang Xiaoyu said in a nonchalant tone.
How could she not know at this moment that Tang Qingshan was so excited because of Xiao Xibao's father? She also knew that she had missed an opportunity.
Tang Qingshan vomited blood.
He dreamed of learning from that person.
But such a good opportunity was actually rejected by his stupid sister.
If possible, he really wanted to exchange identities with Tang Xiaoyu.
