This literary school has a history of more than 190 years. The four characters "Wen Yi Zhe Dao" on the pillar in front of the door were inscribed by the founder emperor himself.

Over the past 190 years, this century-old school has continuously supplied countless pillars of the country to the court of Dajing, and also cultivated many literary giants who will shine in the history of Kyushu literary circles.

This is the holy place in the hearts of the world's officials, the ideal place for literati, and the backbone and blood bank of the Great Scenery.

Ye Qinghuai, who grew up in a palace, has never seen a liberal arts school with her own eyes, but she often hears its name. In her mind, a liberal arts school should be like a place where a hundred schools of thought contend, and great scholars should be seen everywhere on campus.

There were scenes of students going back and forth and arguing.

Rather than the empty and desolate situation in front of me.

There were several heavy soldiers in armor and guns standing in front of the door, scanning the crowds of people with sharp expressions, which filled the entire campus with a tense atmosphere.

Ye Qinghuai looked at the leader of several guards. He was wearing bright light armor and black leather boots. His right hand was holding a broad sword hanging on his waist.

It is the uniform of the Gyeonggi Guard.

The Gyeonggi Guard is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War and is the armed force with the strongest combat capabilities in Shengjing. Generally, the Gyeonggi Guard will not be dispatched unless there are major cases such as riots, bandits, and firearms.

Ye Qinghuai couldn't help but frown: There was some major case in the literary school that actually touched the Gyeonggi Guard.

She went to court every day and never heard that anything happened at the liberal arts school, and there was no clue in the reports she reported. But after thinking about it for a moment, she felt that the matter was related to Wang Lisong's case. After all, even the three-division trial could change the situation.

It became a big drama of calling a deer a horse, and by comparison, mobilizing the Gyeonggi Guards was a trivial matter.

Ye Qinghuai packed up her luggage, walked to the door of the liberal arts school, and looked inside the door.

"What are you doing?" As expected, the Gyeonggi Guards asked sternly.

Ye Qinghuai saluted and said, "I am an official who has come to Beijing to take the exam. I dare to ask the military master, what is going on in the liberal arts school?"

The captain heard the sound and walked towards Ye Qinghuai. He looked Ye Qinghuai up and down, and signaled the questioning Jingji Guard to step back. He walked to Ye Qinghuai, looked at Ye Qinghuai again, and asked: "

Where did this young master come from? Who are you looking for in the liberal arts school? Do you have a ticket?"

Ye Qinghuai took out a palm-sized wooden sign from her arms, with a name engraved on it and a seal underneath. She handed it to the captain of the Gyeonggi Guard and respectfully replied: "Here is the seal. My surname is He Youwei, and my birthplace is He.

Jingzuo, this time I came to Beijing to rush for the Spring Examination. My father once studied under Jijiu at the Literary School, and asked me to visit Master Jijiu first when I come to Beijing this time."

She pretended to be the name of a cousin who was separated from her mother's family, and the certificate was genuine and printed by the government. Even if the Ministry of Revenue came, they could not find out the problem.

As expected, the captain weighed the certificate repeatedly in his hand and said, "He Youwei?"

Ye Qinghuai nodded and said, "Yes."

"Didn't you read the notice on the city gate when you entered the capital? You committed a crime during the Literary School's drinking ceremony and have been dismissed from your post. If you want to see him, I'm afraid you won't be able to see him."

Ye Qinghuai was shocked. Although Wang Lisong had been detained by the Ministry of Punishment, the edict of conviction was still in her palace. As long as this edict was not stamped with her seal, Wang Lisong's sentence had not yet been decided, and he would still be

Liquor ceremony at the Literary School.

But from the tone of the Gyeonggi Guard, it seems that Wang Lisong has been dismissed from his post.

Ye Qinghuai felt a surge of anger in his heart.

It seems that not only is she the emperor useless, but also the imperial seal in her hand is useless.

These people spoke words of loyalty and filial piety, but never thought of her as a monarch in their eyes and hearts?

The captain approached her, looked her over again, and said: "Little brother, I see that you are also a young master from a wealthy family. It is not easy to go all the way to Beijing to take the exam, and it is not good for you to go back empty-handed like this. I can offer you wine as a sacrifice.

By spreading the news that you have been here, you will be considered as fulfilling your filial duty for your father."

Ye Qinghuai didn't know what he meant by his sudden words, and couldn't help but look at him with some confusion.

But he saw the captain with a greasy smile on his face. He got a little closer to Ye Qinghuai and lowered his voice and said, "It's just that Jingzhong is not as good as Jingzuo. Everything needs to be taken care of."

After saying that, he gestured to Ye Qinghuai like a banknote.

Only then did Ye Qinghuai understand what he meant.

For a time, many scenes seemed to flash before her eyes, including nobles in rich and luxurious clothes, skinny beggars, and courtiers bowing their heads in silence before the three-level court.

She only felt a rush of blood rushing to the top of her head. She took two steps back, distanced herself from the captain, and shouted: "This is at the feet of the emperor, in front of the gate of the sages. You dare to ask for bribes in public without the king's laws. Such

Who taught you to corrupt your character?"

Ye Qinghuai spoke loudly, causing the Gyeonggi Guards and surrounding passers-by to look at her.

She had never been so angry. But she didn't know why she was angry.

She was angry at the greedy face of Gyeonggi Guard, and at the same time she seemed angry at the courtiers' obedience, and even more angry at Gu Shihai for betraying her and the late emperor's trust, but most of all, she was angry at her own ignorance and powerlessness.

.

She wanted to ask, why is this happening? Who taught them to do this?

Several Gyeonggi Guards and their captain were shocked by her momentum for a moment, but the next moment, the captain reacted immediately. He looked cold and said: "I feel sorry for you, so I gave you some instructions."

Lu, since you don’t know how to live or die, don’t blame me for being unkind. Come on, take down this unruly man!”

The captain of the Gyeonggi Guards spoke with great energy, and he immediately regained his aura in front of Ye Qinghuai. He waved his hand, and two Gyeonggi Guards immediately stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, and clasped Ye Qinghuai's arms behind her back, holding her whole body.

They all bowed their heads.

Ye Qinghuai had lived for more than ten years and had never been treated so roughly before. She couldn't help but feel angry. However, she was thin and weak and was being held by two big men, so she couldn't resist at all.

Seeing that the two men were about to drag her away, Ye Qinghuai felt anxious. Could it be that he was about to become the first emperor in the history of Da Jing to be imprisoned?

She held her ground while being dragged by the Gyeonggi Guard, and said, "Do you know who I am? Ask your master to come see me."

The captain of the Gyeonggi Guard showed no fear, but smiled and said: "Even if you are the King of Heaven, I have the final say here. Take it with you!"

Ye Qinghuai never expected that a mere Gyeonggi Guard could be so rampant, but judging by their behavior, they were obviously used to being domineering in Shengjing City. They were not afraid even if they got into trouble and got into trouble. There must be someone above them to take care of them.

.

She felt bad, and was thinking about countermeasures in her mind, when there was a sudden light on her shoulder, and the force that was holding her was suddenly removed, replaced by an arm resting on her shoulder as if nothing had happened.

Ye Qinghuai raised her head and saw a man who was slightly taller than herself. He easily pushed aside two Gyeonggi guards, stood beside her, and put a hand on her shoulder.

That action made him look like he was a brother-in-law.

The man was tall, with a sharp face and regular features. In the cold wind of the winter moon, he only wore a simple cloth robe, and his muscles with dormant veins were faintly visible under the robe.

He is a skilled practitioner. And he must be a good player because he can get rid of the Gyeonggi Guards so easily.

In the eyes of everyone, who were either surprised or angry, he suddenly smiled at the captain of the Gyeonggi Guard and said: "Don't worry about this military master, he is my cousin. This kid just arrived, went astray, and bumped into the military master.

, we adults have a lot of knowledge, don’t be as knowledgeable as him.”

As if to confirm his kinship with Ye Qinghuai, he also patted Ye Qinghuai's shoulder in a friendly manner.

Ye Qinghuai's eyes twitched, and she felt that her shoulder was dislocated.

"Don't you only have one girl? When did you have a cousin?" The captain obviously knew him well, but he frowned and asked.

"I just came to the capital, I just came to the capital." The man said, he came to the captain's side, took out a few coins from his arms and stuffed them into his collar, and said with a smile, "Let Captain Liang and the brothers worry,

It's interesting, let me treat you guys to a drink."

The captain took out the few broken pieces of silver from his arms and counted them. He seemed to think that there were a few, but when he raised his head, he bumped into the smiling face of the man. He stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man, and looked at Ye Qinghuai again, his face filled with tears.

He wrote "I'm giving you an advantage today", then turned around and said to the man: "For your sake today, go back and teach him the rules."

After saying that, he threw Ye Qinghuai's coupon back to the man, turned around and left with his men.

The crowd of onlookers quickly dispersed, leaving only Ye Qinghuai and the tall man in front of the door.

Ye Qinghuai looked at the man warily and asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm your brother, why do you turn your back on me?" After he finished speaking, he put his arm on Ye Qinghuai's shoulder and lowered his voice and said, "This is not the place to talk. Aren't you looking for a sacrificial wine? Follow me.

I come."
