school days in ancient times

In ancient times, there were no entertainment activities at night, except for those who went to Huajiu Alley to mess around, and normal people rested very early, but Ye Mian couldn't adapt to this schedule after coming here for more than half a year.

In the small study room of Baofeng Courtyard, Ye Mian was practicing calligraphy at his desk, while a few maidservants were cutting lamps and cooking tea.

Ye Mian used the new Xiao pen that he got today, he didn't follow his cheap father's example, he didn't use it if he liked it, he just looked at it every day.

It's not a decoration, is it stupid?

After writing for more than an hour, I got up to take a bath under the urging of several maids. Since Ye Mian moved into Baofengyuan, the turtle hair is also famous for being clean. He needs to take a bath every day, no matter how late it is or how cold it is. , and now someone has been arranged on the big stove in the kitchen to boil the bath water for the fourth young master at five o'clock every day.

After the hair was dry, it was already Haishi, and the bed was covered warmly by several Tang women.

Ye Mian slipped into the warm quilt wearing a new white satin pajamas, every cell in his clean and refreshing body was ironed to the extreme.

Bao Nian broke off a piece of Yue Linxiang's incense cake and threw it into the three-legged gilt incense burner at the side, then turned around and put down the tent on Ye Mian's bed.

"Fourth young master, take a rest, you have to get up early for school tomorrow."

"It's your turn to be on duty tonight?"

"Well, if the young master wants tea at night, just call me."

"Okay, be careful there are ghosts in the east."

Bao Nian rolled his eyes: "Your maidservant is not Bao He, Fourth Young Master, you can save yourself and go to bed early." After speaking, he calmly went to Dongcijian with the bronze candlestick in his hand.

"It's boring," Ye Mian turned over and said, "It's still fun for Baohe to stay overnight."

In the early morning of the next day, Baofeng Court had a reenactment of the drama of waking up children and lying in bed. Ye Mian reluctantly opened his eyes when the carriages arrived at the gate of Guozi School.

As soon as he entered Jixian Gate, he saw Li Zhao in a black sable fur cloak walking in front. Ye Mian recognized him at a glance from his back. This guy was taller and stronger than them because of his family's good genes. , Walking is also striding meteors, quite a bit of style.

Ye Mian made strides, ran forward, and jumped onto the man's back with a whoosh, bumping the unsuspecting Li Zhao into a stagger and almost eating shit.

Ye Mian jumped down and bent over to one side, laughing loudly.

"Hello, Ye Si!"

After reacting, Li Zhao stepped over in a few steps, stretched out his arms and locked Ye Mian's neck and pressed down. Ye Mian couldn't fight him with brute strength. Foggy flowers.

Li Zhao clenched his fist with the other hand, and punched him several times before he gave up.

After the quarrel, the two brothers walked towards Qirui Courtyard together affectionately. Li Zhao asked him, "Have you heard about what happened in Qinan Courtyard yesterday?"

"What's wrong with Qinanyuan?"

"Why? They really took over the courtyard of the Kunrui Academy!"

"What?" Ye Mian opened his mouth and said in surprise, "Who did you hear that from?" Impossible.

"What my third brother told me last night is absolutely true," Li Zhao punched each other, gritted his teeth and said, "Those grandsons! They want to die!"

Li Zhao's third elder brother is a student of Kun character in Guozixue, so his words can't be wrong.

Ye Mian grinned, this is interesting.

There are two schools of Guozi School in the Dawen Dynasty, one is naturally in the capital where Ye Mian is located, and the other is in Jinling.

The Guozi School in Jinling was built more than [-] years later than the one in the capital, and the number of students is not as large as that in the capital.

The north is more orthodox than the south, but the south is richer than the north, and neither side obeys the other.

Just talking about articles, Jiangnan talents are indeed better than here, especially in recent years, the two consecutive scientific examination champions have come from Jinling, and the conflict has completely heated up.

Such a situation in the school will naturally have some impact on the court. The teachers in the north and the south are different, and the students will naturally follow their teachers and brothers when they enter the temple.

In the two factions, you put on shoes for me in secret, and I stabbed you in the back. It caused the current Holy Majesty to have a headache. He reprimanded him in court and comforted him in secret, but unfortunately, it was of no avail.

In the end, I don’t know who gave the emperor an idea, saying that this matter had to be solved fundamentally and gradually, so the emperor made his idea to Guozixue, and there was such a thing as an exchange of "academic exchanges" between students from the north and the south.

Last year, under the "persecution" of the imperial decree, [-] students from Guozixue in the capital and Jinling were sent to the other side to study on a "study tour". Swap" Be a Pioneer Test Run...

So when Ye Mian was in school last autumn, Guozixuexin had a Qinan College, and it was these twenty young masters from Jinling.

The climate and living habits of the north and the south are different, and it was the first time for these twenty twelve or thirteen-year-old boys to leave home. Unaccustomed to life and mental stress caused them to fall ill one after another. All of them were worse than those in Jinling Having lost a lot of weight, the parents of Nanbian children, who are always paying attention to the situation here, are in a hurry. They write notes one by one to "complain" to the emperor, which scares the grand priest of Guozixue and wants to give up the Qinan courtyard.

So the students of Jingcheng Guozixue are upset, they are all the same students, why do they have more servants in Qinanyuan than us?How can they have their own cook?How can they not learn to ride and shoot in winter?

This year's Qizi students not only did not make friends with each other as the emperor intended, but ended up getting married first, which is why Li Zhao gritted his teeth when he mentioned Qinanyuan.

Ye Mian and Li Zhao entered the school room of Qirui Academy, and there was also discussion in the room about the robbing of the courtyard of Qinan Academy.

"Qinan Courtyard is too arrogant now, even dare to snatch the courtyard of Senior Brother Kun Zisheng!"

"The grand sacrificial wine is all about them, why don't they dare?"

"The courtyard of Kunrui Courtyard is my favorite. I enjoy begonias in spring and lotuses in summer, and visit Weihu Lake in autumn and go to snow in winter," one person sighed.

"I love the Wei Lake next to Kunrui Academy the most. My cousin studied in Kunrui Academy before. He said that the yard is the most comfortable place to study in. The school house is by the lake. Spring and Autumn opens the window. The lake breeze blows over with the fragrance of flowers, and I don’t even find it annoying to take old man Xue’s class.”

"Crack!" Wen Xun slapped the table hard, "Three years later, the Kunrui Courtyard was originally ours! Don't those people in the south take our Qirui Courtyard seriously?"

The students of their Guozixue change their grades every year, and even the courtyards have to be changed. For example, when their Qirui Academy is upgraded from Kaizi to Xiuzi, the courtyard will also be changed to Xiurui Academy, and in the fourth year it will be promoted to Kunzi. , and will naturally change to Kunrui Courtyard, the best courtyard in Guozixue.

"They don't even look down on senior brothers now, so why would they care about our Qirui Academy?" Ruan Yunsheng finished speaking and looked towards the door, "Brother Mian and Brother Zhao are here."

The two who just came in nodded at Ruan Yunsheng, "I heard you arguing in the room from afar."

"It's not Wen Xun, the book case is almost ruined by him, so you take care of him."

Ye Mian stretched out his hand and pinched the back of Wen Xun's fleshy neck, Wen Xun's neck shrank from the cold, and he didn't hide.

"Ang Yuan hasn't come yet?" Ye Mian looked around and asked.

"Here we come." Wei Angyuan's haughty voice came from outside the windproof curtain of the school house.

Several people turned their heads to look over, and saw a young man in ferret fur lifted the curtain and walked in, with white fox fur earmuffs on his head, the tip of his nose was red from the cold, taking advantage of his delicate little face.The page went up to help him take off his cloak, and even though he moved his fingers a few times, he didn't undo the strap of his cloak's windshield.

The boy's handsome and handsome eyebrows raised, and impatiently pushed away the boy in front of him.

"You're so stupid! Ye Si, come here."

Ye Mian was speechless.

"...Am I a long-term worker hired by your mansion?"

Everyone was amused to laugh and slapped the table to boo.

It took Ye Mian a lot of effort to untie the knotted rope on Wei Angyuan's cloak, and the others ignored them and continued the discussion just now.

"I heard people say that the school has asked people to make new plaques. In two days, the plaque of Kunrui Academy will become Qinan Academy."

"I don't know where we will move if we are promoted to Kun character?"

"Naturally, it's Kunrui Courtyard," Wei Angyuan said while putting the brush and inkstone in the bookbag on the desk.

"Ang Yuan, don't you know? The school has already given the yard of Kunrui Courtyard to the grandchildren from the south, and they still..."

"I know," Wei Angyuan interrupted him without raising his head, "So what?"

"..."

Ye Mian leaned on the desk, opened his mouth and yawned, lazily said: "It doesn't matter who uses Kunrui Academy now, we will be promoted to Kunzi in three years, and we can just move there."

Li Zhao nodded: "Brothers let them be the senior brothers, we have been with them for a year, so there is not so much politeness to do."

Wen Xun was excited: "I'm not afraid of them either!"

"Yes! We are not afraid of them."

"It's a big deal to fight!"

"Haha, those sick bastards!"

"Let them go to Kunrui Courtyard to recuperate quickly, and then don't say that we are bullying people."

Ha ha ha ha......

Everyone seemed to have a backbone, and after changing their previous depressed appearance, you said each sentence with enthusiasm.

The class bell of Guozixue rang twice, and the school rooms in each courtyard fell silent.

Qirui Academy is calligraphy class this morning.

The students sat quietly in front of the desk and faced the posts. Occasionally, the sound of charcoal cracking in the brazier could be heard in the room. The teacher walked slowly on the green bricks, correcting their postures one by one, pointing to the book. art.

Ye Mian was also writing very seriously, and swallowed nervously when he heard the approaching footsteps of the gentleman behind him, and sure enough, the gentleman stopped behind him for a while and then sighed heavily.

Ye Mian put down his pen and scratched his head with rare embarrassment, "Sir, the students are really practicing pens every night..."

Mr. Liang stroked his goatee, took the Zihao pen in Ye Mian's hand, and took out a new piece of bamboo paper to spread on the table, "Calm down and read my writing carefully."

Mr. Liang explained to him while writing slowly on the paper: "The power of the pen is on the wrist, not on the tip of the pen. When holding the pen, you should push it, not drag it, and don't hesitate to write..."

After Mr. Liang finished writing, he asked Ye Mian to show him the same way as before. After several times, Mr. Liang finally couldn't help but support his forehead, "You should write big characters for another two months."

Suppressed laughter all around...

Ye Mian drooped his head, it should be that the students have already mastered Chinese script and lower script, but he is still writing big characters every day like a child...

Mr. Liang is generous and never bears to be mean to his students, but he still couldn't help asking him: "It's really strange, your father Ye Shilang also said that when you were studying in a private school at home, your writing was immature, but your structure was still Yes, why suddenly within half a year, not only has he lost his strength of character, but even his basic skills of brushwork have been messed up?"

Ye Mian smiled wryly in his heart, because this Ye Mian is not that Ye Mian.
