What is a mentor? This is the mentor!
Ganquan Academy, as the first-class education group in this era, has more than just educational resources. Take the last incident of Yan Mingli's fraud as an example, even the top Fan family in Jiangdu City and the Fan from the Ministry of Punishment The minister also had to bow his head in front of Ganquan Academy and had to submit.
Because some of the educational resources of Ganquan Academy have been "transformed" into political resources, Fan Shilang of the Ministry of Household Affairs is only part of the power of Ganquan Academy. As the mountain chief, Lu Anshi also has a lot of influence in the court.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to take the position of the headmaster of Ganquan Academy.
Although this position is not in the imperial court and does not have an official position, it is very important to coordinate everyone related to Ganquan Academy.
Therefore, Master Lu's thigh is actually much thicker than it looks.
After Shen Yi thanked Master Lu, he took a few "exam materials" from Master Lu's study before thanking him and leaving.
A while after Shen Yi left, Miss Lu came in with a plate of snacks, placed the snacks in front of Lu Anshi, and said softly: "Dad, I made you some pastries, you can eat some while they are hot."
She looked at Lu Anshi and said again: "Also, don't stay in the study all the time. It's the same in the academy and it's the same at home. You have to go out for a walk from time to time."
Master Lu took the snack, took two bites, smiled at his girl, and said, "Girl, you have to discipline my old father."
"You did something wrong, of course you need to be disciplined."
Miss Lu looked at Mr. Lu and hummed: "We are not allowed to be in the academy tomorrow. I will accompany you to the city, and then go to the clothing store to buy you two pieces of clothes. It is almost the twelfth lunar month, so why don't you wear thick clothes?" There are only a few.”
Mr. Lu put down the book in his hand, looked up at his daughter, shook his head slightly and sighed: "In a blink of an eye, you are now so old and you already feel sorry for others."
He said with some guilt: "After your mother left, I asked you to stay with me in this academy. I have wronged you."
"What did dad say?"
Miss Lu sat opposite her father and said softly: "You have not lacked food and clothing for your daughter. Your daughter is living a good life. How can you be wronged?"
Mr. Lu lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "Last year, your Uncle Zhao once wrote a letter to my father, asking him to take you to Jiankang when he had time to meet his little son. See you, if you get tired of staying in Jiangdu, dad will take you to Jiankang next year."
Hearing these words, Miss Lu panicked. She looked at her father and said, "Dad...didn't you say last year that your daughter was still young and that you would not consider it for now? How come this year..."
After hearing her words, Mr. Lu was silent for a while, then shook his head and said with a smile: "Well, since my good daughter doesn't like it, then we won't go to Jiankang. To be honest, dad doesn't like his little son very much either. It’s just that he doesn’t like taking exams, he’s a little fat, and he’s also frivolous.”
He looked at his daughter and said slowly: "A big family has many rules. If it doesn't work, just find one in our Jiangdu."
Having said this, Master Lu looked at his daughter and said with a smile: "Our academy is full of young scholars. Is there any good daughter you like?"
Miss Lu's face turned red and she shook her head.
"No...no."
Master Lu nodded.
"Then just wait a little longer. If I really marry you off, I won't be willing to let you go as a father."
…………
The next day, a medium-sized banquet was held in Ganquan Academy.
In addition to some "leaders" from the academy who were present, ten of the fourteen people who took the pilot test this year came.
Because there were so many people, there were two tables in total. As for the food, it was not cooked by the chef in the academy canteen. Mr. Xie ordered it from a restaurant in the city and delivered it to the academy. It was steamed a little before serving Can be served.
The protagonists of this banquet were actually Chen Changming and Shen Yi.
These two people, one is the first in the government examination, and the other is the second in the government examination, they have earned Jiangdu Academy a lot of face.
Chen Changming is a gentle young man, he looks to be 18 or 19 years old, slightly older than Shen Yi. However, he is a bit shy and hesitant at the banquet, obviously not suitable for this scene.
But Shen Yi was much more calm.
Firstly, it's because of his mental age, and secondly, when dealing with these people in the academy, you don't have to think too much, just be humble and deal with them.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
During the banquet, Chen Changming, the leader of the house, and Shen Yi sat together. The two toasted each other several glasses of wine. However, Chen Changming was not a very good drinker. After drinking two rounds of rice wine, he became unsteady. Shen Yi stood up on his own initiative and talked with him. The gentlemen from the academy said hello and helped Chen Changming leave.
As a result, the second place winner in the government examination supported the first place winner, left the banquet, and walked towards the academy's dormitory.
At this moment, Chen Changming was already a little lost in the lake.
Shen Yi supported him and asked with a smile: "Brother Changming is leaving for Jiankang tomorrow?"
Chen Yu nodded in confusion and said, "Yes, I will go to Jiankang with Master Ying tomorrow."
"You're in such a hurry to go, do you have any relatives in Jiankang?"
Chen Changming's face turned red after drinking, and he shook his head and said: "I...I don't. Master Ying has a few old friends in Jiankang. He sent a letter to invite him early. After discussing with my family, I decided to go to Jiankang with Master Ying. This is fine. There is someone taking care of you.”
The teacher he mentioned was his teacher Ying Zhao.
Shen Yi suddenly realized and asked, "Mr. Ying is going to Jiankang to prepare for the examination?"
"Um."
Chen Changming has no evil intentions. He basically answers whatever Shen Yi asks.
"Yingshi... I'm going to prepare for the Jinshi exam..."
He turned to look at Shen Yi in confusion, and said, "I...I also want to take the Jinshi exam."
Shen Yi, who was standing next to him and supporting him, looked at the leader in surprise when he heard this.
Not only why do you answer what, but you don’t even ask questions... This character...
Very simple.
This is not surprising.
Many of the more powerful question writers, or “academic geniuses”, are simple-minded.
A faint smile appeared on Shen Qilang's face.
"I'm going to Jiankang after the Chinese New Year. If I'm lucky enough to meet again in Jiankang then, I will definitely have a good drink with Brother Changming."
Chen Changming tried his best to shake his head.
"I...I can't drink, but if Junior Brother Shen wants to drink, I will try my best to accompany him for a few drinks..."
While the two were talking, they had already arrived at Chen Changming's school building. Shen Yi helped him lie down on the bed, and then wiped the sweat from his forehead.
This guy is almost an adult and is about half a head taller than Shen Yi. It took a lot of effort from Shen Yi to help him over.
"Brother Changming, you have a good rest, I will go back soon."
Chen Yu lay down on the bed and waved to Shen Yi in confusion: "I...I'll see off my junior brother."
Hearing his words, Shen Yi smiled hoarsely.
This senior brother... has a pretty good personality, and he's a good person to be friends with.
pity…
Shen Yi suddenly thought of a certain classmate who died tragically, and sighed slightly in his heart.
It's a pity that the other student named Chen is no longer there. Otherwise, if the three of them went to Jiankang to take the exam together, they might be able to join hands in the officialdom in the future.
…………
The next day, Chen Yushou and Mr. Ying left Jiangdu by carriage and rushed to Jiankang.
For a period of time after that, Shen Yi, who stayed in Jiangdu, had nothing to do. Apart from studying in the academy, he went to the city to teach Xu Fu and others how to do some small business. In this way, time passed day by day.
In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival of Chen Hongde’s fifth year is approaching...
