The Capital University Hall is located between Guanghua Gate and Jingyao Gate in the northwest of Chang'an City; besides the West Inner Garden and Hanguang Hall complex attached to the imperial city, it is the only one backed by the Chang'an outer wall and the city corridor. ; But don’t open a super large academy that extends into the forbidden garden.
Therefore, another institution that can compete with it is the Jingshi Armed Forces University located on the bank of Longshou Canal in the northeast corner of the city. The beginning of the Capital University came from the reconstruction of a building complex covering an area of more than 100 acres on the site of the burned Liyuan Garden after the Anshi Rebellion.
Therefore, since the Capital University Hall was put into use, it has been continuously expanded and built by successive rulers to include the garden scenery of Chibo Mountain from all over the world. It is famous both inside and outside the capital; it is even included in the Thirty-six Scenic Spots of Beijing Among them, there are five scenic spots.
Nowadays, with the twelve branches of five major affiliated schools spread across various prefectures, it has firmly occupied the throne of the top university in the world. The Academy of Political Science, the Academy of Economics and the School of Liberal Arts, which are among the twelve branches, are even known as the top universities in the country. The place for storing talents is directly connected to Zhengshi Hall, Dongge, and the Third Siyuan.
Every year, only dozens to hundreds of outstanding students from the school or those admitted in the imperial examination are selected to be admitted; there are even retired officials who are studying, naturally forming a unique circle of career elites. So much so that even the intelligence and general subjects of the Armed Forces University were relegated to second place.
In contrast, the feudal academy, which ranks last, is known as the largest branch among the twelve academies because it includes the children of princes and vassal families all over the world. There are five to six thousand students enrolled in the school all year round, almost It accounts for more than half of the students living in Beijing, and it also drives many ancillary industries.
Although there is no shortage of talented people in the past dynasties; but also because the admission threshold is relatively low, as long as you are the heir of a vassal family, or a powerful vassal guarantor and recommendation, you are eligible for admission; this has led to the uneven quality of the good and the bad, which has also lowered the overall historical reviews and reputation.
Even the endless stories and jokes of the nouveau riche and the vulgar and illiterate foreign barbarians have become the end of the invisible chain of discrimination in various colleges of Beijing University; as well as the long-lasting related allusions and jokes in Beijing. , one of the important sources.
At this moment, Jiang Tian, who was surrounded by everyone, stood in front of the tall archway in the Forbidden Garden/Beiwai Garden, which was exclusive to the exit gate of the vassal academy than the Peking University Campus in the same extra-large square area. While waiting patiently with his hands behind his back, he looked at the handwriting of Mr. Liang on the archway.
It is completely different from the simple and straightforward school motto on the front door of the Armed Forces University: "Please go elsewhere to get promoted and make a fortune. If you are greedy for life and fear of death, do not enter here." Hearing the sound, he is concerned about the affairs of the country, family, and the world."
What clearly corresponds to this is the Huangpu School motto created by Sun Dapao in the early years of the Republic of China; and the inscription of Donglin Academy by Gu Xiancheng, the leader of the Donglin Party in the late Ming Dynasty; it seems a little different, full of some kind of The inexplicable undertones of history’s dark sense of humor.
However, the school motto located at the gate of the vassal academy comes from Bai Juyi's "Fang Yan": "When Wang Mang treated the virtuous corporal, Zhou Gong was still afraid of worries and supported the sun." But Jiang Tianyin felt a little sad and suddenly felt like a dream. Because the predecessor seemed to have had an unforgettable memory and experience in it.
It was a time when falling flowers were flying like rain, and even the air was filled with fragrance. Accompanied by the faint singing of "March 3, it's the last day, there are many beauties by the water in Chang'an"; one of the most famous places of interest and attractions in the Capital University Hall ——Chunming Pond, the sparkling waterside like gold:
Holding a green umbrella, she walked among the flowers and rain all over the sky, trying hard to hold down the rippling skirt and clothes as she walked. She was a graceful and graceful figure, and she had a familiar voice: "May I ask, Mr. Lang, if the Jiji Club of the feudal academy is nearby..."
The next moment, another figure of E Guan Bodai hurriedly walked into the archway, which immediately brought Jiang Tian's thoughts back to reality. I saw that this man was just over fifty years old, but he was tall and handsome, with gray hair on his temples and deep facial features. His sharp eyes were the first to speak in a deep voice:
"I am Gu Xiancheng, the right academic supervisor on duty at the Imperial Academy. I don't know what business I have to do at Xiantai. I want to go into this academy to interrogate people? Don't I know that according to the imperial court's rules and regulations, if it is not directly connected to the political affairs hall? , no one is allowed to enter."
"It is precisely because the imperial court has rules and regulations that I specially sent people to inform them instead of leading people to break in." Jiang Tian said unhurriedly: "But now the Zhengshitang has also issued a notice saying , except for the inner palaces and gardens, the Lixingyuan all have the right to search urgently."
Immediately, Mr. Xin came forward and presented the attachments that were the original official certificate of Zhengshitang; as well as the newly issued search warrant, which was the exclusive identity badge of Lixingyuan. "Lixingyuan?" After the inspection, the right school supervisor Gu Xiancheng frowned more and more. He turned his head slightly and said: "This matter is still inappropriate. The vassal academy is a place where scholars are raised in the world. It is a model of the country's preferential treatment of knowledge. The imperial court Regarding the vital importance of dignity, I still need to ask the president of this court and you all for instructions..."
However, the next moment, Jiang Tian slightly turned his head; in an instant, Sakon rushed forward and without any explanation, pushed the supervisor and several companions aside. He quickly cut through the chaos and controlled it, and the guards inside and outside the gate closed the door, and finally put a barricade across it.
This scene also caused a number of students, students, and servants who were standing by to watch, and they immediately ran around in an uproar to tell each other. When more and more people heard the news and gathered in the streets, Jiang Tian had already led people to march straight into the feudal academy.
As the largest student body among the twelve courtyards of Beijing University, the vassal administration building and its surrounding ancillary buildings undoubtedly occupy an extremely large area; it is almost as large as a small square in Chang'an City. Among them are dotted pools, pavilions, pavilions, and endless schools and buildings.
Therefore, Jiang Tian and his entourage rushed in; although they bumped into and scared away many teachers, students, and servants along the way, they actually did not cause much waves and commotion. It wasn't until they arrived at the perimeter of a building that they were blocked by a group of students who had hurriedly arrived.
"who."
"How dare you break in..."
"This is the storage place for hazardous materials of Gewu Ke Zhizhishe. You can't..."
"The Supervisor should be here." Murong Wu, who followed, also nodded and said: Then Jiang Tian waved his hand, and a group of sergeants behind him suddenly came forward with cards, and in a few seconds, these students who were blocking the road were removed. Being pushed and staggered around, calling daddy and mommy, the closed door suddenly appeared.
Jiang Tian nodded. In his memory, in addition to the normal (public) schools and (exclusive) auditoriums at Beijing University, there are also various kinds of fellow townsmen, fellow enthusiasts and intellectual associations; this is the famous Zhizhi Society, which is obviously One of them.
The next moment, a sergeant wielded a knife and ax in the uproar, and suddenly slashed and smashed it between the thick door panels. He cut a gap in three or five strokes, and cut off the thick wooden bolt behind the door; there was a loud impact. Come and swarm in. Jiang Tian saw a figure flashing in a pavilion facing him.
In an instant, a lit container was thrown into the air; it shattered and splashed on the ground. Suddenly, a sizzling sound filled the air, and pungent and unpleasant yellow-green smoke came; The sergeant among them couldn't help but choked and shouted loudly. "Be careful, the smoke is poisonous."
Seeing that the way into the pavilion was blocked, the upstairs seemed to be gaining more and more power, and several similar containers were dropped one after another. However, Jiang Tian, who was prepared, just made a thought. As soon as he threw the langan vessel, it quickly flew back and exploded between the beams and pillars with a crisp sound.
In an instant, it turned into a flurry of dodging, the sound of objects being overturned and smashed, shrill screams and whines, and the fierce crashing sound of struggling and rolling down from the upstairs. A moment later, the sergeant who broke into the building took advantage of the situation and dragged out several mourning human bodies, as well as some bottles and jars.
But Jiang Tian had already jumped up in full view of everyone, stepping on the eaves and railings, chasing towards a warehouse behind the pavilion. And among these warehouses, someone had just started a fire. Jiang Tian thought about it and slapped it on the wall together with the fire starter.
Another person burst out from the warehouse like an alarmed rat, wearing a gray cloth handyman uniform, and fled over the wall without hesitation. However, Jiang Tian was chased up again, and he was easily pulled back, and was knocked to the ground hard, and he fainted immediately.
At this time, several people poked their heads out of the outer wall again, but they were holding hand crossbows that were ready to fire, and they fired at Jiang Tian one after another without any pause; but they were picked up by him with quick eyes and quick hands, and they were easy to grasp. Throwing it back, two of them immediately fell to the ground with blood splashing.
The other two attackers jumped off the wall without retreating, and silently drew their swords towards each other. The next moment, the two men each danced a ball of knives like snow, and struck in unison with each other. The virtual and real were intertwined, but they were directly attacking the unconscious prisoner on the ground.
Then, two dull and loud bangs were heard. After a while, they bypassed the pavilion and warehouse, and a group of sergeants who came after them could only see two large human-shaped paintings clinging to the outer wall. Then a shrill scream sounded in the largest warehouse.
After a while, more and more students and princes gathered outside after hearing the news. They also looked at the corner of the pavilion that was suddenly smashed into pieces, and the broken bricks and tiles from the corner of the pavilion, struggling to get up. humanoid monster. Suddenly there was an uproar and shouting.
However, as if this reminded the monster, it suddenly jumped over the pursuing sergeants and pounced into the screaming crowd.
