The sixth day of the lunar month is the day when the academy is officially opened to the public.
Before dawn, the entrance to the academy was crowded with people.
"Hey, Lao Lintou. Didn't you say you wouldn't come? Why did you come earlier than me?"
When someone sees an acquaintance, they grab their sleeves and point at their noses to scold them.
After being caught, Lao Lintou didn't dare to quibble, so he had to back off with a flattering smile while begging for mercy.
But the other party refused to let go and insisted on teasing him enough.
"Okay, okay, stop talking..." Seeing that he couldn't hide, Old Lin had to admit defeat, "We didn't sleep well all night last night. We thought we came early, but we didn't expect that we would even come here." You can’t even get in from the street.”
There is a whole wide street in front of the academy. Now let alone this street, even the streets on both sides are crowded with people.
Although there were crowds of people, everyone did not feel crowded at all. They were all chatting with each other, waiting for the moment the academy door opened.
Although there were many people, no one was in charge of order, but the people at the entrance of the academy and on the streets were spontaneously in order. .net
In their view, the academy is such a sacred place, and if they are allowed to enter and take a look, it is the academy's favor.
If you are grateful, how can you make mistakes?
"Why are you still here? Why haven't you changed your clothes?" Fang Xiaoru opened the door of Han Du's study and saw Han Du leaning on the chair, and quickly exclaimed.
Han Du calmly took a sip of tea and looked himself up and down, "What's wrong?"
Fang Xiaoru rushed forward in a few steps and was about to pull Han Du up, "Today is the day when the academy is open. If you don't go to the front to take charge of the overall situation, why are you hiding here?"
Facing Fang Xiaoru who was anxious to get angry, Han Du was even less anxious.
She used her backhand to break free of his hand and said lightly, "I thought you were in a hurry. I've already arranged for someone to do this. Let's just sit here and drink tea."
As he said that, he took the initiative to pour a glass for Fang Xiaoru.
Seeing the teacup handed over by Han Du, how could Fang Xiaoru be in the mood to drink tea?
He asked in an urgent tone: "You arranged for someone to take charge of the overall situation. Who did you send? Also, aren't we good at this situation? What if something goes wrong?"
Han Du slowly sat back on the recliner, "What can happen?"
Seeing that Fang Xiaoru still looked anxious, Han Du simply pulled him to sit down.
Fang Xiaoru was about to speak, but Han Du raised his hand to stop him.
"Do you really think that the academy can't do these things well without us? There are so many gentlemen and students in the academy, and no one of them is a talented person. Don't worry, they can do these things well."
"Besides, the people may not want to see us."
Fang Xiaoru shook off Han Du's hand, stood up again, looked down at Han Du and asked, "Then who do they want to see?"
Fang Xiaoru's prestige was extremely high, both among officials and among the common people. He was respected by everyone wherever he went. Since becoming the deputy judge, this situation has become more frequent.
He doesn't think there is anyone who can attract more people's attention than him. Maybe there is, and the most is Han Du.
"What the people want to see most right now is of course the reward winner!" Han Du smiled faintly, "Haven't you heard the rhetoric from the people in the past two days? They all compared the number one scholar to the top prize. Winning the number one prize is even worse. You are parading on horseback, will the people look at you at this time?"
Well.....
Fang Xiaoru had no way to refute, so he had to sit down again, but the anger in his heart still hadn't completely calmed down.
"Are you just going to leave such an important matter to the three of them?" Fang Xiaoru stared at Han Du's profile with suspicion. He thought that Han Du's move was too reckless, "The three of them... ...Is it possible? Will there be any problems?"
Look at who these three people are. One is Yu Qian. Although he became famous at a young age and is Han Du's direct disciple, he is too young after all. He is still less than thirty years old, and he has never hosted a host. this
experience of this situation.
Yu Qian is smart, but that doesn't mean he can cope with such a situation.
And Zhu Tan, he is the prince! Has he ever had any experience in dealing with the people? Moreover, his reputation is not good. The "Prince of Grain Reincarnation" has never had a good reputation. Coupled with his current temper of not allowing strangers to enter, what should he do if he conflicts with the people?
And Yang Qing... Fang Xiaoru shook his head when he thought of him. This man was obsessed with studying knowledge. After becoming a Jinshi in high school, he didn't even want to be an official. He came directly to the academy to become a teacher. Moreover, he was careless in class, focusing entirely on studying knowledge.
Of course, if Yang Qing hadn't been so obsessed with knowledge, he wouldn't have noticed any difference in the pendulum swinging back and forth every time, nor would he have discovered such great knowledge, let alone won a reward in one fell swoop.
From an academic point of view, there is nothing wrong with these three people, and they are all the best in the academy.
but......
"What can go wrong?" Han Du waved his hand directly, "Don't worry, there won't be any problem. Besides, they are in front. If something happens, won't we still be here?"
Fang Xiaoru thought about it carefully and felt that Han Du's words were not unreasonable. With him and Han Du watching over them and presiding over the overall situation, there shouldn't be any problems.
The main entrance of the academy.
The morning sun shines over the mythical beast Suan Ni on the courtyard wall and onto the people in front of the main entrance, and a warmth envelopes everyone. Because many people arrived too early, their clothes were covered with a layer of fine mist, which quickly dried under the sun.
"Crunch..."
As the heavy door made a dull sound, the academy door slowly opened. Usually the main door will not be opened. Unless the emperor or empress comes in person, the middle door will be opened to welcome him.
So when they saw the main door open, the people started talking, thinking that the emperor was coming.
As all the doors opened, Yu Qian was in the middle behind the door, with Zhu Tan and Yang Qing standing on both sides. The students stood on both sides of the avenue, and the three of them led the academy students out.
Yu Qian was dressed in a green brocade robe. When he stood at the door, he saw a scene of jade trees looming in the wind.
"Thank you for coming to support me. The academy has prepared many programs today. I hope your trip will be worthwhile!"
As Yu Qian's words fell, a burst of hearty laughter broke out among the people.
The area around the academy is bustling with activity these days, with so many dazzling plays feasting the eyes of the people. Now that they heard what Yu Qian said, they naturally thought that these plays were also played in the academy, and they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
However, considering that the academy paid them to see it for free, no one raised any objections.
After a brief opening remarks, Yu Qian announced that people could enter the academy.
Zhu Tan immediately took a step forward, pressed his right index finger into his nose a few times, then wiped it twice on his robe without looking, curled his lips and said, "If you want to see the wonders of chemical changes, you can follow me. "
