Autumn outings in the academy are a tradition of the Chu official academy, and the Imperial College naturally has arrangements for them. Of course, the Imperial College Autumn Tour is different from ordinary academies.
Autumn outings to this highest institution of official learning in Chu state are all about elegance, retrospection, and pursuit of the legacy of the sages.
Every time at this time, the great scholars in the Imperial College would take their students to climb mountains to look into the distance, drink wine in the meandering water, paint by the sea, and sing in the bamboo forest.
Because of his unique painting style, he is often followed by students from other academies.
I just don’t know if there are too many foreign students following, whether it affects the performance of the Imperial College students or the artistic conception pursued by the great Confucians. In short, I don’t know since when, the Imperial College Autumn Tour has not allowed outsiders to follow.
Therefore, in the eyes of the leading scholar, it was not unusual at all for the Imperial Academy's Qiuyou to drive away the three fat, round foreigners.
But for the three children who were driven away, this was extremely hurtful to their self-esteem.
"If you don't take it, don't take it! We'll go by ourselves!"
"Yang Pangui can do it, but we can't? I'm not willing to follow the Imperial Academy who treats us differently!"
Anyu and Lu Sheng comforted Shengyuan who was furious. It’s not like they don’t have long legs. They are following far behind. Who can catch them?
"Huh, who can't do this?" Sheng Yuan has never been treated like this since she was a child. This is the first time that someone treats her like a burden and drives her away, which makes her furious!
She angrily thought: Don’t you like to be in the limelight? Then I will steal your limelight!
So, on the road from Kyoto to the outskirts of Beijing, behind the mighty Imperial College excursion team, three young boys riding a donkey backwards followed slowly.
These three young boys were exquisite in appearance and charmingly naive. Each of them carried a bamboo pole with a carrot tied to it, placed it in front of the donkey, and asked it to accurately follow the Imperial Academy team.
Their majestic following not only attracted the attention of passers-by, but also made the students riding various horses in the team curious.
Some of them deliberately slowed down their horses to take a closer look at the three of them; some of them felt itchy and wanted to touch their heads; some students kept digging out snacks to feed them.
"Sister An, your sisters are so popular!" Zheng Sanniang looked at the three children who were being watched with a smile, and encouraged Sheng An to say, "Let's go play with them!"
"No!" Sheng Ran rolled her eyes angrily, "Don't say I know them!"
Zheng Sanniang glanced at Yang Pangui, who was smiling and saying nothing: "If it weren't for the husband of the Yang family, Sister Xiaoyuan would not follow him like this!"
"Oh~~I thought someone was curious about her!" Sheng Anhui snorted at her with a half-smile.
Zheng Sanniang didn't want to hear it, so she just sighed exaggeratedly and complained loudly: "I found that his shoulders are not wide enough."
Her words almost made Sheng Ran laugh, and for a moment Yang Pangui looked at her, as if curious about what they were joking about.
The students were laughing because of Sheng Yuan and the three of them, but the leader of the Imperial Academy was so angry that his beard was standing up. He had never seen a student who dared to be naughty in front of him!
Unfortunately, as soon as he asked someone to keep them away, the three primary school students slapped the donkey and came forward to argue with him. Each of these three children can speak better than the other. If they continue to speak, the officialdom will become that of the Imperial College!
There is no shortage of tricks and strategies!
"Sister Yuan, will this make it difficult for Sister An?" Lu Sheng was careful. Seeing that Mr. Imperial College was stingy, he asked Sheng Yuan, "How about we stay far away?"
"Let's go!" Sheng Yuan saw that Yang Pangui was eight feet away from her sister, and with a heroic wave of her hand, she directed Yanzhi and the others to fly after the donkey. The donkey was so frightened that it screamed and ran forward, throwing the Imperial College team far away in a flash. Far.
The Imperial College students stared blankly at the three men riding on Juechen, looking at the dust raised by the donkey's hooves, and began to ponder.
When the two sides met again, it was already the beautiful scene of the bamboo forest.
The Imperial College students formed teams according to their relationships, and played the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music in the bamboo forest one after another.
The group of Sheng An and Zheng Sanniang played at the front. One of them played the piano and the other played the zither, preparing to win the first place with a song called "High Mountains and Flowing Waters".
Tuning the strings and harmonizing, the melodious sound of the piano slipped out from their fingertips in an instant. Just when the music merged, a clear and clear flute sound slowly joined in like gurgling water.
The sound of this flute is fresh, lively and full of spirituality.
Immediately, the sound of wind, water and streams gathered together; the cicadas and warblers were singing, and the birds were singing, which was moving.
The original sound of the harp and zither, with the participation of the bamboo flute, became more and more vibrant, and it actually surpassed the performances of all the senior brothers and sisters.
"Sister Yuan, he is performing music on the harp and harp in front of everyone! How can I bear this?" Anyu stood behind the bamboo, watching the excitement in the distance and rubbing his little hands, full of anticipation.
Lu Sheng also looked at Sheng Yuan expectantly.
Sheng Yuan chuckled and took out the suona he had prepared in advance from his small bag.
In the bamboo forest, the Imperial College students were intoxicated by the sound of music. They vaguely saw waterfalls as high as a thousand feet high, and heard the cry of eagles deep in the still clouds.
Just as everyone was immersed in the melody of friendship, suddenly, an extremely domineering tune shot straight into the sky, causing the souls and bodies of those who heard it to resonate and their eardrums to ring.
It's as if the flowing water and the high mountains are intruding into the chirping birds, chasing the eagles and the wind to fight for the phoenix.
Suddenly, the white snowy wind of Yangchun changed rapidly towards the common people celebrating together.
The gentleman from the Imperial College originally pinched his beard and wanted to write a poem to praise him, but he didn't want to say anything, but the style of the song suddenly changed and it became like this.
Immediately, they were so angry that they looked around, and sure enough, they saw the three urchins playing the suona not far away!
The most annoying thing is that when their suona sounds, the student on my side who just had an outstanding string sound actually plays the piano and zither very happily!
What do they take the sound of music to be? !
Do you think you are playing cotton or in the countryside? !
Fortunately, the flute player was quite reliable. Although he was a little at a loss, he did not go down the river and was still able to maintain his composure.
After the song, Sheng Ran and Zheng Sanniang put away their instruments excitedly, feeling very happy.
After looking at each other, the two couldn't help laughing.
"Miss Sheng San, your sister is innocent and cute, and her classmates like her very much, but the husband of the Imperial College may have objections. It may have an impact on her admission to the Imperial College in the future."
Yang Pangui believed that he was persuading him frankly out of the heart of a friend, but he didn't want Sheng An to lose face after hearing this.
"My little sister just wants to travel with the Imperial College like Mr. Yang, but she doesn't want to have a cousin who is a scholar in the Imperial College. She just wants to regain her face childishly. But even if she makes trouble, she doesn't disturb others. It's understandable for the gentlemen to be angry, but you said Holding a grudge against my little sister? That would be looking down on the magnanimity of the gentlemen."
At this point, Sheng Yuan stopped talking to him.
Zheng Sanniang really didn't expect that the other party would try so hard on Sister An and not investigate their sister relationship?
Suddenly, she smiled and shook her head.
Sheng Yuan didn't know that her sister and Yang Pangui were falling out. She and her friends were holding hands and cheering.
"I won't play with them anymore. Let's go back." Sheng Yuan waved her hand and planned to withdraw.
Yang Pangui is very thick-skinned, so if she makes such a fuss, she probably won't be able to find a situation to use!
