Chapter 43: Escape
The two brothers ran out of the Yasheng Academy Palace, didn't dare to take the main road, turned into the mountain forest from the path on the side of the courtyard, and ran for a long time before stopping.
Xu Qi'an's breath was steady, Xu Xinnian was holding onto a pine tree, panting, and because of the strenuous exercise, his white face surged with a stirring flush.
"What do we do now?" Xu Qi'an intended to ask for advice from his little brother, who was "doing things in a disciplined manner", and probed:
"Did I just count myself as having cracked open a thousand-year-old problem for the academy?"
He didn't expect that his words would cause such a terrifying vision, and wasn't sure what would follow, so he followed Xu Erlang and fled.
Xu New Year gasped for breath, calming his heartbeat while letting out a haughty "Heh", "At most, it's a problem of two hundred years."
Xu Qi'an took off his water sac and handed it over.
Xu Erlang took it and took a sip as he continued, "If it was me who was new to the academy, I would have advised you to stay where you are and wait to receive the worship and gratitude of the academy's teachers and students."
"But the current me just wants to take you away in a hurry." He tossed the water pouch back to his cousin and waited a moment to see that his face was as it should be, not puzzled.
There was some disappointment and appreciation.
Appreciation, of course, because Cousin was brainy, unlike his father's kind of roughneck. This made the self-important Xu New Year heartily pleased.
Disappointment, on the other hand, was not being able to show his saintliness in front of his cousin in person, creating a sense of intellectual superiority.
Yes, even if cousin has made amazing poems many times, even if cousin has just written this kind of split mountain and open up the ground like sentence on the stone monument ..... Xu New Year still felt that his IQ was a step above.
Without this kind of mindset, you can't do "Heaven didn't give birth to me, Xu New Year, Dafeng Wan Gui is like a long night."
The two brothers quickly weaved their way through the forest and quietly felt their way towards the stables.
Leaving without saying goodbye is the best choice at this moment.
Xu Qi An stayed on the scene, and what greeted him might be Yunlu Academy s gratitude and even worship as a great scholar .... Although it was unlikely.
This was the good side.
The bad side was also obvious, Yunlu Academy and the State Scholarship Academy were a dispute over Taoism, and Xu Qi'an's acceptance of Yunlu Academy's thanksgiving was bound to attract the hostility of the scholars originating from the State Scholarship Academy at the same time.
The dynasty is full of Zhu Zi Gui, all of whom are from the State Elementary School.
One tax and silver case will leave a trail of trouble, and this is more dangerous and troublesome than a hundred tax and silver cases.
The resignation of the old coincides with my thoughts .... Xu Qi'an laughed, "Rhetoric Old, you're a real dog."
Very well, Erlang was not a pedantic reader, which was probably due to his intensive study of the art of war.
"Rough billet." Xu New Year sneered back and continued, "As long as we leave, afterward, I believe the academy won't publicize it recklessly and will keep it a secret for us."
He stopped talking and seemed silent as he hurried along while gazing at his eyes in contemplation.
......
The large ping outside the Sage Academy Palace.
Zhao Shou, who wore hemp clothes and had white hair, suddenly made a surprising move as he turned around suddenly and gazed at the back of the academy.
A few seconds later, the three great scholars made the same action, their faces gazing out.
Confused in her heart, the Rapunzel subconsciously turned her head along with their gazes, the clear sky was clear and there was nothing.
But in the next instant, a clear qi visible to the naked eye rose up into the sky and penetrated the clouds. The thick white clouds floating on Qing Yun Mountain collapsed in plain sight.
Zhao Shou took the lead and disappeared, and the three great scholars then demonstrated their divine ability to follow their words, moving themselves three feet to the back of the academy.
The Princess frowned lightly, lifting the hem of her skirt, walking briskly and without losing decorum to follow.
She is tall, curvy and delicate, the charm when she walks is indescribable and can only be imagined.
......
In the Asian Sacred Palace, the candlesticks tipped over and the wax oil flowed.
In the empty hall, clear air swirled like the spring breeze, highlighting Zhao Shou's figure as he quickly swept over every inch of the hall before his eyes focused on the cracked Cheng's Sub-Sage's tablet.
This .... The Dean's ancient well-like pupils set off wild waves, while quickly analyzing the cause of that rushing Qing Qi.
The tablet that suppressed the academy had collapsed, and the vast qi contained within the Cloud Deer Academy had broken free and filled itself to overflowing, causing the scene just now.
The problem was, how could Cheng's Sub-Sage's tablet have crumbled for no reason at all?
Soon, Dean Zhao understood, his gaze was attracted to the stone tablet that he had erected in the hall in the first place, he looked at the content on the tablet and felt like the entire world was fading and disappearing, the only thing left was that line of ugly fonts that was deeply seared into his pupils.
Branded in the heart.
Becoming the only thing in the world at this moment.
In the spring breeze-inducing swirl of clear air, the figures of the three great scholars manifested, and they subconsciously scanned the entire hall.
When they saw the crumbling Cheng Clan's Sub-Sacred Stone Tablet, their pupils involuntarily contracted.
Good for nothing, how could the stone tablet crack ..... No, this is a good thing, it means that the seal that suppresses the Yunlu Academy's qi has been shaken .... Li Mu Bai thought in his heart and suddenly realized that the dean's state was not right.
It was a state of being immersed in his own world and losing his soul.
The stone monument unexpectedly cracked, in the era when the sub saints were not present, there was actually someone who could shake Cheng's stone monument .... Zhang Shen and Chen Tai looked at each other, seeing shock and doubt in their respective eyes.
Immediately afterward, they, like Li Mubai, noticed Dean Zhao's abnormality.
"To establish a heart for heaven and earth, to establish a life for the people, to succeed the great learning of the past saints, and to open the balance of heaven and earth for all ages ...." Zhang Shen murmured.
He was completely shocked by the vigor, backbone, and ambition contained in these words, his body was covered in goosebumps stormy bumpy stuff, and the hot blood in his chest seemed to boil.
"This is what a scholar, should really do." Chen Tai's mouth trembled: "For an official, when for the people, for the country, for the world's living beings, should not be for a family of one surname, for a few people."
This great scholar who is known to have great talent in ruling the country, at this moment, his body shivered uncontrollably and his voice was hoarse: "Enlightenment, enlightenment ah ...."
Li Mubai took a deep breath to calm his emotions, "Who wrote this?"
The three of them looked at Dean Zhao Shou at the same time, the dean had been in seclusion for more than ten years, in order to overthrow Cheng's science, and had spilled his heart and soul. If anyone in the current world could start a new academic school, it was him.
But the dean was with them just now, moreover, the dean's attitude at this moment already explained everything.
What responded to them was silence, and after a long time, Zhao Shou said in a low voice, "You guys go out first, and if you have anything to say, you can discuss it afterwards."
He then said, "A gentleman keeps silent."
The three great scholars bowed and left side by side.
The door to the hall closed, silence surrounded them, and Zhao Shou stood silently in front of the monument, behind him were hollowed out doors and windows, sunlight spilling in dappledly.
After a long time, he straightened his crown and performed the disciple salute towards the stele: "When one hears the Way, one may die at night."
.....
Rapunzel lifting her skirt, finally rushed to the Yasheng Palace of learning outside, but found that the Palace of learning within ten feet, was like an inverted bowl of gas shroud wrapped, cut off from inside and outside.
She did not hurry, stood quietly at the bottom of the steps outside the palace, like a quietly blooming flower.
In a few moments, three great scholars came out side by side, their faces stoic, but they couldn't tell if they were good or bad.
"Three gentlemen, may I tell you?" The Princess gazed away from the academy.
"Princess don't ask." Chen Tai made a bow, "This matter, we can't get a clue for the time being."
The Eldest Princess smiled, her face that could not hide her nobility was as calm as ever.
Saying goodbye to the three great scholars, she alone traveled in the direction of the elegant pavilion, and in the mountain wind, her robes and skirts fluttered, as if she was a spirit in the mountains, a fairy who had descended to the earth to play.
Two columns of armor-clad soldiers are still guarding the outside of the pavilion, just like a silent statue.
This twenty-four person Jinguwei was her escort, and there was also a team of seven night watchmen at the bottom of the mountain.
It was just that the academy was extremely disgusted with Wei Yuan and did not allow the night watchmen to go up the mountain.
The Eldest Princess went down the mountain with her escort and found the seven night watchmen who were marqueeing at the side of the official road, her voice was clear: "Cloud Deer Academy's clear qi is rushing to the sky, the Yashang Academy is being blocked, report this matter to the Duke of Wei and ask him to keep a close eye on the academy to find out about this matter."
"Yes!" The night watchman clasped his fists.
The Eldest Princess continued, "Investigate a person for this palace, Changle County Yamen Quick Hands Xu Qi'an."
"As you command."
