Chief Gu and several of his masters left, leaving only Dong Hanlin.
Today's first lesson begins with the Four Books and Five Classics.
The content taught is "Shuo Shu" from "The Book of Songs".
Dong Hanlin's character does not need to be elaborated, but his knowledge is profound, but there is no doubt. He was a serious Jinshi and served in the Hanlin Academy for more than ten years. He was very familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and his explanations were indeed unique.
In her previous life, Xie Mingxi could only stand outside the school and listen to some information intermittently. Or Xie Yunxi could relay it so that she could complete her homework for Xie Yunxi. Now, sitting in the school and listening carefully, the feeling is naturally different.
Xie Mingxi listened attentively, with a focused expression.
Dong Hanlin, who wanted to find fault, glanced at the last row from time to time.
However, Xie Mingxi listened attentively, and Lin Weiwei looked serious, and couldn't find any mistakes.
The only exception was the Sixth Princess. After listening for a while, there was a hint of impatience in her eyes, and she yawned quietly. After a cup of tea, she closed her eyes slightly and fell asleep.
Dong Hanlin: "..."
This is simply the greatest humiliation to a teacher!
Dong Hanlin's face turned red and white. He froze on the spot for a moment. He took a deep breath and lowered his teaching voice so as not to disturb the Sixth Princess.
Students: "..."
Xie Mingxi raised her eyebrows slightly and turned her head to take a look.
The Sixth Princess has an excellent appearance, even her profile is particularly beautiful.
The gloomy indifference when he was awake was gone, and his long eyelashes quietly covered his eyes, which were thick and dense. The bridge of his nose was straight and his red lips were slightly pursed.
In her previous life, did the Sixth Princess often fall asleep in class?
Doubts flashed through Xie Mingxi's mind.
Back then, she and the Sixth Princess only interacted with each other after class and had very little conversation. Therefore, this was not clear.
That's all! Go to sleep if you want! Princess Tian, it doesn't matter if you are a good student or not. Anyway, the master doesn't dare to say a word, let alone scold him.
…
Half an hour later.
"Today's class is over. After class, each person will write a policy essay. The content of today's lecture is mainly based on the content of today's lecture. The topic must be solved with new ideas. The number of words must not be less than 300."
As soon as Dong Hanlin finished speaking, the girls burst into a soft uproar.
Whispers such as "It's too harsh to write a policy paper on the first day of school", "How should I solve the problem?" "Will I be punished if I can't write it out?" vaguely reached Dong Hanlin's ears.
Dong Hanlin immediately darkened his face and said coldly: "Studying requires hard work and diligence. It's just a policy statement. A quick thinker should finish it in half an hour. Even if the mind is dull, one or two hours will be enough. If you even do this
If you can’t endure any hardship, why do you come to Lianchi Academy?”
As soon as Dong Hanlin got angry, all the girls immediately fell into silence and did not dare to say a word.
Xie Mingxi, who was sitting in the last row, suddenly stood up.
Dong Hanlin's brows moved, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes: "Xie Mingxi, what do you mean by standing up suddenly? Are you dissatisfied with what I said?"
Xie Mingxi was neither humble nor overbearing, and responded softly: "I want to remind Mrs. Dong to keep her voice a little lower. Her Highness the Princess is sleeping soundly, and she is afraid she will be woken up."
Dong Hanlin: "..."
Dong Hanlin looks very wonderful!
At this moment, the Sixth Princess opened her eyes. Suddenly she woke up, her eyes were a little hazy. It took a while before she regained her clarity.
The sixth princess felt absolutely no shame about having slept for half the morning. When she saw Xie Mingxi getting up, she couldn't figure out what was going on, so she also stood up.
Lin Weiwei and others simply stood up and said together: "Congratulations to Mrs. Dong!"
Dong Hanlin took a deep breath and left with a puff of sleeves.
As soon as Dong Hanlin left, the girls who had been silent for a long time suddenly became active, and they gathered together to chat with each other. Li Xiangru, Sheng Jinyue, Qin Sihun and others gathered together, and Lin Weiwei, Fang Ruomeng and Xie Mingxi gathered together.
around.
Yin Xiaoxiao was caught in the middle, but was in a bit of a dilemma.
She and Xiao Yuhan are close friends, and she is also quite familiar with Li Xiangru. Although she wants to get close to Xie Mingxi, it is inconvenient to leave her friend behind at this time...
Eh!
Why do people always have so many worries?
Yin Xiaoxiao smiled apologetically at Xie Mingxi.
Xie Mingxi smiled back, indicating that she didn't mind.
"After half-day class, I'm so hungry." Fang Ruomeng muttered in a low voice, "I wonder what the lunch meal provided by Lianchi Academy is like."
Lin smiled slightly and said: "Let's go to the canteen together later and have a good taste."
Xie Mingxi said, "I brought food."
Lin Weiwei was surprised for a while: "Why bother? The food prepared in the morning will be cold by noon. How can it be as good as the food freshly prepared in the canteen?"
Xie Mingxi blinked and smiled: "The cook in the mansion prepared it at the right time and sent it outside the academy. I just asked the maid to pick up the food box."
That's a good idea!
Lin Weiwei immediately smiled and said: "I'll try the food in the canteen today. If it doesn't taste good, I'll ask my family to send a food box. I won't have to eat your food today."
How can I say that we have a deep friendship as classmates! We go to class together, eat together, and take lunch breaks together. We get along so well, and we naturally become close.
Xie Mingxi was not a stingy person, so she agreed with a smile, and then smiled at Fang Ruomeng and said, "You also want to try the cooking skills of the cook in my house."
Fang Ruomeng nodded happily.
The sixth princess standing aside silently glanced at Xie Mingxi, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly, but even though she had a glimpse of the sixth princess's thoughts, she still did not say anything.
The Sixth Princess has a noble status. There is no harm in eating with Lin Weiwei and Fang Ruomeng, but eating with the Sixth Princess is considered to be overstepping the rules.
Even if you intend to make friends with the Sixth Princess, you should not act too hastily.
…
There are two rows of Haitang School. The rooms in the front row are spacious and bright and are reserved for classes. The rooms in the back row are reserved for eating and lunch breaks.
The dining hall is also a spacious room. There are three small round tables made of pear wood, and each table is equipped with four chairs.
Lin Weiwei and Fang Ruomeng followed Xie Mingxi closely, and the Sixth Princess walked side by side with Xie Mingxi. The four of them sat at the same table as a matter of course.
At this time, the accompanying maids could come in. Each received the food box for the master and placed the food on the table.
The rules of Lianchi Academy are very strict and only one companion is allowed. Even the Sixth Princess is no exception. The one accompanying today is the palace maid Ran Mo.
Ran Mo was elegant and dignified, her manners were calm, and her bearing was far superior to that of other maids.
As soon as Xie Mingxi's maid appeared, she immediately provoked a burst of laughter.
"It's not embarrassing to bring such an ugly and vulgar maid to the academy." Yan Zhenzhen curled her lips and laughed.
Fuyu, who has a dark face and a thickset face, is indeed "eye-catching" among all the pretty maids. Judging from the way she carries the three-tiered food box effortlessly, it is obvious that she is very strong and she is a maid who is used to doing rough work.
Li Xiang, who was at the same table as Xiao Yuhan, covered her mouth and smiled.
Yin Xiaoxiao frowned: "It's even more despicable to judge people by their appearance!"
