Louguan Academy is still the same Louguan Academy. We haven’t seen it for more than a year. Now Louguan Academy has completely changed its appearance. The academy that was originally huddled behind the mountain has almost expanded to the road in front of the mountain. Standing far away, you can see a
The archway was built with stone. The original grassland was leveled out, and a newly built gravel road extended all the way to Yuxi City.
A hundred steps away from the academy, the naturally formed market already had the appearance of a village. At first glance, it was full of students wearing academy uniforms wandering around. Even the mountain people and merchants doing business spoke with a bookish air.
, and they are all tidied up neatly. Any shop that doesn’t pay attention to these has already been closed down and will not stay in the town.
Su Ren's motorcade did not cause any sensation in the town. The people here have long been accustomed to seeing high-ranking nobles. Because the houses scattered in the mountains and forests on the other side of the Heihe River not far from Louguan Academy are the summer resorts of Chang'an City's dignitaries.
Often the prince or marquis himself and his family would come. They are the main purchasing power in this town.
Li Shizong poked Guan Qiang: "Did you see that car that just passed by?"
Guan Qiang quickly put down the roast chicken in his hand and turned to look at the street: "Who, whose girl is here again? I still think the princess of the Wang family in Linzi is the best, followed by the concubine of King Wu."
Zhou Jiande laughed: "We Xiaopinghou do have different tastes. What's so good about King Linzi's little princess being fat and ugly? Only you think it's good! Speaking of it, King Jibei's princess is pretty good, but she is His Majesty's cousin.
Don’t even think about it for those of us!”
Tian Tian laughed loudly: "If you can't do it, I can? I am of the same generation as His Majesty. Although my father is not in court now, he is also your Majesty's uncle. I will go home and ask my father to propose marriage to the King of Jibei's house next time I take a break. I'm sorry.
He doesn’t dare to refuse!”
"Hey!" Zhou Jiande sighed: "You have a good name! We don't have this ability. My father died early, and I don't dare to do anything extraordinary with the big hat of Pingquhou on my head. It's so frustrating!"
After saying that, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.
Chen He frowned: "By the way, why do you think His Majesty called those princes and kings back to Chang'an? And he never let them go back. I looked at almost all the princes and kings in the Guandong area, only the King of Hengshan, the King of Zhongshan and a few others were left.
Old Wang, the rest are all in Chang'an, and His Majesty has been very kind to these people, and has given them mansions, gold pearls, and beauties. Have you ever counted them? Almost all the kings in Chang'an have houses on the other side of the Heihe River."
Li Shizong sneered: "What's weird about this? Your Majesty is raising pigs!"
Several people were stunned. Tian Tian, who reacted first, burst into laughter. Guan Qiang and Zhou Jiande scratched their heads: "What do you mean?"
Tian Tian smiled and said: "Farmers keep the pigs in a small space and serve them deliciously. They only wait for the New Year's Eve to bleed and eat the meat. The New Year's Eve of these kings is when Your Majesty controls their fiefdoms."
At that time, but now the power of the princes and kings is gone. In Lingnan and Mayi, I heard that Mr. Su is building some kind of Yumen Pass in the Western Regions, which can prevent the Huns from coming from the west. If it is built there, the end of the Huns will come. At that time, those princes and kings will
What else can be done?”
Guan Qiang and Zhou Jiande suddenly realized. Li Shizong said quickly: "I almost forgot because you interrupted me. I seemed to have seen Mr. Su's carriage just now! I just passed by!"
Several people were stunned for a moment and immediately rushed out of the wine shop. Unfortunately, it was a little late and there was nothing on the street except the bustling crowd.
Chen Hedao: "Did you read it wrong? I heard that Huo Qubing stole General Pinglu's imperial edict and went to the Western Regions. Your Majesty immediately asked General Pinglu to lead his troops to pursue him. By now, he had gone beyond Jincheng and was still far away from Yumen. Mr. Su
How could you come back so soon?"
Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Li Shizong vowed: "Oh! How could this be wrong? Others can see that Huang Shisan's big ax and Man Niu's hammer are right. These two people are Mr. Su's personal bodyguards."
, how can Mr. Su still be outside when they come back?"
After swallowing hard, Guan Qiang said, "How about we go back? If Mr. Su comes back, he will definitely pass by the academy. He knows that a few of us ran out to drink, so he has to deal with us!"
Tian Tian thought for a while and shook his head: "That's not right. Logically speaking, even if Mr. Su comes back, he should go to Chang'an to face the saint. Why would he go back to the academy directly?"
"Maybe sir came back from Chang'an!"
Zhou Jiande sent Guan Qiang: "You are stupid! You are coming from the east from Chang'an, and we are on the west side of the academy!"
"Oh! Yes, yes, then let's go back quickly!"
As he got closer and closer to home, Su Ren became more and more excited. From time to time, he would stick his head out of the parking lot and look at the changes in the surroundings. There are nine archways in the Dalu Road Academy, which shows how much Emperor Liu Che attached great importance to this place.
In addition to the nine archways in front of the imperial palace in the entire Han Dynasty, Louguan Academy was the only one with such specifications. The first archway was the four characters "Louguan Academy" written by Liu Che himself. It is now carved into stone and inlaid in the archway.
It was painted with gold powder and the sun dazzled people's eyes.
The second one was inscribed by Prime Minister Dou Ying. Placing these two archways on the first and second, the political nature of the academy has been clearly seen. No matter who it is, no matter how old the official is, he can only dismount his horse and walk at the entrance of the academy, because the emperor's
His reputation is on it, there is only one word for disrespecting him, death!
Although Su Ren was the founder of the academy, he could only get off the carriage when he saw Liu Che's archway. The long stone road extended to the back of the mountain. For some unknown reason, this road deviated from Su Ren's original design requirements.
, you climbed over from the top of the mountain. But because of this, you can only see the lonely archway when you stand on the road in front. When you climb up the mountain, the scenery in front of you is breathtaking.
There are three-story buildings everywhere, all made of earth and stone, painted a layer of white, clean and eye-catching. The tallest building in the middle is still the library. No one dares to deny Su Ren on this, so the buildings built later
None of them are higher than the library. Next to these school buildings, a new area was created near the Heihe River, where the playground of Nuovo University is located.
I don’t know what time it is now, but scattered students on campus and on the playground are all busy. Some are holding thick books and reading, some are strolling in the woods next to the playground, and some are walking in a hurry.
Walking back and forth reminded Su Ren of the university campus in later generations. This scene had not been seen for many years.
The master's father ran over in a hurry, rolling and crawling, and almost falling off the hat on his head. He was the only one. When he saw Su Ren, he lay on the ground with tears in his eyes. Su Ren spent a lot of effort to
Pulling Master Yan up, Master Yan wiped his eyes: "Sir, are you back?"
Su Ren patted the master's father on the shoulder: "Very good! When I see these, I know you have done a good job!"
The master's father Yan was still in a state of excitement: "Sir, you have given me too much praise. I have received great favor from you and have been appreciated by your majesty. I am satisfied to be able to serve as a sacrificial wine in the academy. I am also happy that these children can become talents."
Su Ren smiled: "Hey, if you have any ideas, just tell me, don't beat around the bush!"
Master Fu Yan waved his hand quickly: "Sir, you misunderstood, I have no other ideas!"
Su Ren laughed even louder: "It doesn't matter. You can help me take care of the academy for one year. I am grateful. No matter you agree or not, I still want to recommend you to your majesty. It is always better to leave a great talent like you in the academy."
It's a waste, you should go to the court, but to discourage you, if you feel that the court is not easy to hang out, just go back to the academy, the door here will always be open to you."
Zhufuyan once again shed tears and knelt down to salute Su Ren. This time it was from the bottom of his heart. Zhufuyan was a talented person. He ran from his hometown of Jeju to Kuaiji to make a career in Kuaiji, and he followed Su Ren from Kuaiji to Chang'an.
This is still the purpose. Of course, he also understands that Su Ren does not completely trust him, but what can he do if others say nothing? He stayed in the academy for more than two years with humiliation. During this period, he worked conscientiously and never made a mistake.
This time, I finally gained Su Ren's trust, and of course I was too happy to be attached.
Su Ren originally planned to go home directly through the academy to see his wife and children, but unexpectedly he was stopped by Dong Zhongshu and Wen Dang at the gate. After not seeing each other for more than a year, Dong Zhongshu was older and had some gray hair on his head, but he was energetic
Fortunately, after seeing Su Ren, there were tears in his eyes, but the expression on his face was still cold. Wen Dang was older than Dong Zhongshu, his hair was completely white, and he was pushed out by two students in a wooden cart.
Facing these two old men, Su Ren did not dare to neglect and hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Dong Zhongshu snorted: "It's good to come back. I have heard about your affairs in the Western Regions, and I am very pleased!"
Old Wen Dang burst into tears. This apprentice was his last apprentice and the most promising one. Because of this apprentice, the old man was now the leader of the sect. Even Dong Zhongshu could not compete with him. However, Wen Dang was weak by nature.
He has a good personality, and now even the emperor will call him sir when he sees him.
Touching Su Ren up and down, the old man sighed in his heart: "Zi Heng lost weight and became darker this time when he went out! I thought I would never see Zi Heng again, but if I see him today, I will be able to see clearly even if I die!"
Chunyu Yi chuckled: "It's so easy to die, but you can't die as long as I'm here."
Su Ren quickly asked: "Teacher's body..."
Chunyu Yi said: "The old guy has become lazy. If he doesn't want to walk, he has to build a wooden cart for people to push. It's annoying!"
This sentence made everyone laugh, and even the master's father stood aside to help. Su Ren followed everyone's footsteps and stepped into Louguan Academy. In the minds of these students, Mr. Su Rensu was their role model and the object of their admiration. Su Ren came back
The news immediately spread throughout the academy, and everyone, whether they were in class or not, came out to watch. I don’t know who started to recite the enlightenment book Disciple Rules written by Su Ren for the youngest students. Soon the entire academy began to recite it, and even
Dong Zhongshu and Wen Dang were also together.
This was a book that everyone used to express their respect for Su Ren, and Su Ren naturally accepted it. The sound of reading resounded through the sky, and even the dignitaries of Chang'an who lived across the Heihe River were alarmed, and they all asked what happened to Louguan Academy?
