At the same time the next day, Taiyuan University.
'Tai Scholars are the place where wise men are connected and the origin of education'... Emperor Tang promoted culture and education. In the fifth year after he ascended the throne, he expanded the scale of Tai Institute several times. Originally, Taiyuan College only accepted the descendants and close relatives of civil and military officials with official titles of fifth rank and above, or the great-grandsons of officials of third rank and above. All great-grandchildren can be admitted to study. As a result, the institution of Ether College is getting stronger and stronger. The number of doctors in the college has increased year by year, and the number of disciples in the college has also increased day by day.
Although the Northern Wei Dynasty has been prosperous in recent years, its culture and education have always been inferior to that of the New Tang Dynasty. After thousands of years, the New Tang Dynasty is still the benchmark for the culture of the Central Plains, and it can be said that the cultural bones are strong. In addition, in recent years, the first examination of the poor family has been hosted by Taiyuan University, so Taiyuan University has become a banner of the New Tang Dynasty in the Central Plains. During the heyday of the New Tang Dynasty, the royal families of small neighboring countries often took pride in sending their royal relatives to study in the New Tang Dynasty. Now, faced with the general trend of Wei being strong and Tang Dynasty weak, they are still more willing to send their princes and grandchildren to the New Tang Dynasty. Studying in the academy has always been a point of pride for New Tang scholars.
At this time, the gate of Taiyue College was already crowded with people. The disciples who came to participate in the cold examination were waiting anxiously and excitedly at the gate of Taiyue College. Some people stood boredly with their hands on their chests, looking at the gate of Taiyuan University without saying a word; some people squatted on the ground, holding small branches in their hands, and drew something on the ground; some people simply sat Close your eyes and rest on the ground.
After a while, there was only a "squeak" sound of the door opening, and the disciples in front of the courtyard looked at it——
The door to Taiyuan University is finally open!
There was a commotion in the crowd. The students who were standing rushed to the door immediately, and the students who were squatting jumped up from the ground like frogs. The students who were sitting on the ground felt a little disadvantaged and quickly climbed up with their hands on the ground, not even bothering to pat their buttocks and hands. Hui, followed the other students and walked towards the door.
I saw a doctor walking out of the hospital. He looked at the scene at the entrance of the hospital calmly, as if he was used to it. The doctor stroked a finger-long beard on his chin, then took out a "Thousand-Character Classic" from his back and skillfully rolled it into a tube. Then he waved his hand, and two slightly younger doctors quickly moved a table over. The doctor lifted up his robe and climbed onto the table with difficulty with the support of the other two doctors. He cleared his throat, put the volume of "The Thousand Character Classic" in front of his mouth, took a deep breath, and exhaled from the Dantian. Chu put all his strength into his throat and shouted——
"Quiet! Silence! All students, be quiet!"
After shouting "Quiet" three times in a row, the students stopped making noise and told others around them to keep quiet. After a while, the entrance of Taiyue College, which had just been like going to a market, became silent.
Seeing this change, Dr. Nagasu nodded slightly, looking extremely satisfied. Then, he shouted loudly——
"Dear students, with the virtue of God, the grace of the Holy One, and the blessing of Mr. Tang, we, the Tang Dynasty Taipei University, are honored to host this preliminary cold examination! Today is the registration day. Students, please follow my arrangements. All the students of Tang Dynasty Taipei University will gather at Taipei University. Line up at the center of the college gate! Students from the Northern Wei Dynasty all gather at the stone lion on the left side of the gate and line up! Students from other countries gather at the stone lion on the right side and line up! Doctors from Taiyuan University will call you in the courtyard later. Be sure to line up. Enter one by one, if the order is messed up, they will be beaten out with sticks!"
After hearing the doctor's words, everyone immediately lined up like ants migrating and stopped making noise.
…
On the street, Qin Jingqing led the four of them to the Imperial College in a leisurely manner. Along the way, he kept introducing everything about Chang'an to Yi Hongyan and the four of them with great interest, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
"Chang'an is the capital of our Tang Dynasty, with abundant resources, abundant resources, and outstanding people. If you have free time in the future, I would like to be your guide and take you around this thousand-year-old capital..."
"Even this eminent Buddhist monk also took a fancy to our great connections with Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the eminent monk Xuanzang traveled to Tianzhu to the west and brought back Buddha statues, relics and Sanskrit classics to the Ci'en Temple tower hidden in the Ci'en Temple in the southeast corner of the city... ..No! The street to the west of Ci'en Temple is Zhuque Street. Going due north along Zhuque Street is the Tai Chi Palace. The official family is in the Tai Chi Palace... Thousands of years ago, the Emperor of Zhou established his capital. Here, it was named 'Hao Jing', and the people of Chang'an also like to call the capital 'King To', so..."
Qin Jingqing introduced it eloquently, and Yingping and Yiyi listened with interest. They asked questions from time to time, and Qin Jingqing could answer them fluently.
Yi Hongyan admires Mr. Qin from the bottom of his heart. He hasn't stopped talking since they met yesterday. The key is that you still think what he said is... interesting? The so-called smooth tongue is just that!
Ye Changshan, who was silent on the side, didn't have much thought to listen to what Qin Jingqing had to say. At this moment, he was still very confused, and he just thought about enrolling at Taiyuan College as soon as possible.
While Qin Jingqing was eloquent, he glanced at Ye Changshan from the corner of his eye from time to time. Although his focus was on Yingping, how could a man as versatile as him not see that Yingping and Ye Changshan were brothers? So he never ignored Ye Changshan. Along the way, Qin Jingqing saw Ye Changshan's thoughtful look, so he found a gap and walked up to him and asked, "Young Master Ye seems to have something on his mind."
Ye Changshan didn't expect Qin Jingqing to come over and pay attention to him. He was a little confused at the moment, so he had to find a reason and said: "Oh... No, no... I just want to go to the Taiyuan College to register as soon as possible. I saw students on the way. They all walked towards Taiyuan University, there must be a lot of people at the registration office, and they were afraid that they would have to queue up if they arrived late..."
"Ah? Haha - Young Master Ye, there is no need to panic. Jingqing has arranged everything by himself, so don't worry!" Qin Jingqing said confidently, with a slightly mysterious tone and a look full of pride in his eyes.
Seeing what Qin Jingqing said, Ye Changshan had no choice but to nod and say nothing more.
It was nearly noon, and the scorching sun was already overhead.
The group of people slowly and leisurely swayed to the east side of Taiyue College. Turning around the corner, the four of them were stunned by the sight in front of them - they saw three long queues lined up at the entrance of Taiyue College, which seemed to be endless. All the students stood in the queue under the scorching sun with their sleeves covering their faces, enduring great pain for the sake of their dreams. However, all the students were surprisingly disciplined. No one made any noise, and no one dared to jump in line. They obviously cherished this last opportunity.
This...is this a queue to get money? This is too exaggerated! Yingping said in shock. Although I was mentally prepared before, I was still frightened by this scene. With the large number of believers, the huge formations, and the great attention of Taiyuan Academy, the name of the No. 1 sect in the Central Plains is well deserved.
Sighing, it was late, and Yingping couldn't help but feel a little helpless. He looked at the 'people' and sighed: "What can we do with so many people? It will take until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse and the Moon?"
"Master, don't panic, Jing Qing has his own way."
Qin Jingqing said it calmly. Then he walked towards the doctor who had just stood on the table and shouted, bowed his hands and said -
"Master Chen, long time no see! How are you doing?"
The master surnamed Chen seemed to be familiar with Qin Jingqing. When he saw him coming forward, a smile appeared on his always stern face. However, Master Chen was old and the skin on his face had become wrinkled. This smile was actually worse than crying. Ugly.
"It turns out to be Young Master Qin. What's wrong? Didn't your old man register your name for you? Why did you come here in person?"
Seeing Mrs. Chen's smiling face, Qin Jingqing quickly added: "Recently, I am still confused about some words in the Book of Rites, so I came here to ask for your advice!"
"Mr. Qin has come early and late, but he has come to Taiyuan College at this time to ask for advice on the Book of Rites. Didn't you see that I am busy?"
"Hey, if it is a trivial matter, I will definitely not bother you at this time. However, I am studying the "Book of Rites" at home. I don't want to know the meaning of some words and think about it over and over again, so that I can't drink tea and can't sleep at night. So I took the Book of Rites with me and came to Taiyuan University to seek advice."
"So...you brought the 'gift money'?"
"Exactly, this junior brought the 'gift money'."
After that, Qin Jingqing took out a small piece of silver from somewhere and flicked it into Master Chen's sleeve without anyone noticing. The technique was extremely proficient and it seemed that he had practiced it countless times.
Master Chen gently lifted his sleeves to weigh the weight, and then the smile on his face gradually broadened.
"Since Young Master Qin is so eager to learn, then come to the courtyard with me."
Seeing Master Chen turn around and walk towards the courtyard, Qin Jingqing quickly turned around and waved, signaling Ye Changshan and Yingping to follow.
Upon seeing this, Yingping and Ye Changshan hurriedly followed in. Yi Hongyan seemed to have remembered something and followed with Yiyi.
When I walked into Taiyue College, I saw the students from all over the world who had already entered were registering information at the table. After registering, the doctor from the college handed him a bamboo stick and said: "Take this bamboo stick tomorrow and come to the east gate of Taiyuan University to exchange for the exam card."
The students received the bamboo sticks and walked out happily, without forgetting to say thank you.
Qin Jingqing took the two of them and followed Master Chen to the inner courtyard. When he reached the door of a room, Master Chen stopped. He raised his finger and pointed at the room, indicating to Qin Jingqing to go in by himself.
Qin Jingqing nodded his thanks in a row, and then led the four of them towards the room. Just when Qin Jingqing was about to turn around and show off something to Yingping with a proud look on his face, suddenly there was a conversation between an old man and a middle-aged man from inside the room——
"Mr. Qin, haven't you already signed up for yourself and Mr. Qin? Why do you have to come at this busy time of Taiyuan Academy?"
The voice of an old man came first, and his tone seemed a little impatient.
The middle-aged man who was called "Master Qin" quickly smiled and said: "Master Zhang, long time no see! It's a trivial matter and I will definitely not bother you at this time, but I am studying the "Book of Rites" at home and don't want to know some of the words. I couldn’t figure it out after thinking about it, so I couldn’t drink tea and couldn’t sleep at night, so I took the Book of Rites with me and came to Taiyuan University to seek advice!”
"So, you brought the 'gift money'?"
"Exactly, this junior brought the 'gift money'."
There was only a "squeak" sound, as if some box had been opened, and then there was another "bang" sound, as if the box had been closed again.
"Well, what do you want Master Qin to ask for?"
"Hey...Master, let me tell you the truth! Quanzi came with me to take the test this time. I am just joining in the fun to show my respect for you. But what about Quanzi? Although he is still young, But he is very talented, and if he can be polished, he will definitely have a lot of potential in the future! I don’t expect to be born late in this poor family, but the selection of officials..."
Qin Jingqing heard vaguely outside the door and felt that the voice was very familiar. However, there was a little noise in the courtyard, so he couldn't tell who was in the room for a while. So, he walked in first - this entrance shocked Qin Jingqing. He stood at the door like a wooden chicken, his eyes full of astonishment. He opened his mouth unconsciously. If a wooden chicken could lay eggs at this time, he would surely stuff the wooden eggs into Qin Jingqing's mouth.
