Chapter 221 Ma Ziyue(1/2)
What a majestic imperial capital, Su Xun said with emotion.
When Lin Yanruo heard this, she frowned slightly and said with a smile: "One look at you and you will tell that you have never seen anything in the world."
Su Xun frowned and looked at Lin Yanruo with some confusion.
Lin Yanruo glanced at Su Xun with disdain and said slowly: "This is just the periphery. Only when you get to the imperial capital will it be truly prosperous."
The group of people talked and laughed about the imperial capital.
The chariot soon approached directly above the pillars supporting the palace.
At this time, a straight road leads to the imperial capital.
On both sides of this avenue, there are many teahouses, taverns, pawn shops, and workshops.
The monks were constantly walking through the streets, and a dazzling array of goods could be seen everywhere.
The carriage slowly landed in the city.
Get off the car! Li Youran glanced at Su Xun and Lin Yanruo and said calmly.
You cannot drive easily on the streets of the Imperial City unless you are driven by Emperor Zhao, Li Youran explained to Su Xun.
Su Xun nodded, and the three of them quickly got out of the chariot.
With a thought in Xiao Menglou's mind, he put the chariot into Zi Mansion, Meijian.
Su Xun looked at the streets on both sides. It was indeed as Lin Yanruo said. There were bustling crowds in the city. On the streets, there was a prosperous scene.
It is indeed a prosperous imperial city.
There were no fewer than dozens of tall buildings in the city alone. Su Xun looked into the distance and felt a shiver in his heart.
These high-rise buildings are majestic, unique in construction style and look quite impressive.
Such a tall building cannot be built by ordinary people.
After all, building high-rise buildings requires a lot of materials, the manpower and material costs are too high, and the process is more complicated.
Therefore, those who can build high-rise buildings in the city are all powerful people from aristocratic families, or even relatives of the emperor.
Tall buildings reflect strength from the side.
Brother Su, this tall building is the Taixue Academy in the imperial capital. Li Youran pointed to a tall building in the distance and spoke slowly.
Su Xun followed the direction pointed by Li Youran, looked forward, and sighed: "It is really an impressive school."
But I don’t know that this Taixue Academy was purchased by a wealthy family, Su Xun said solemnly.
Purchasing? Xiaomenglou on the side snorted softly and said with a smile: "Brother Su is joking, Taixue Academy is the highest institution in the imperial city. It is not something that ordinary institutions and aristocratic families can purchase."
Taixuefu, also known as Guozijian, was founded by the current emperor and has been used to this day.
Taixuefu has become the oldest academic institution in Yingzhou.
"Royal Academy?"
I see.
In addition, there are six schools in Taixue Academy, and there is a trace of yearning in Xiao Menglou's eyes.
What are the six studies? Su Xun frowned.
Xiao Menglou looked at Su Xun strangely and said with a smile: "Brother Su, is it possible that he is not from Yingzhou?"
Su Xun nodded and said slowly: "I am not a Yingzhou monk."
No wonder, Xiao Menglou muttered... If I were a monk in Yingzhou, everyone should know the Six Studies.
Lin Yanruo glanced at Su Xun who was a little dumbfounded, smiled, and said: "Idiot, let me tell you what the Six Studies are!"
She gently stroked her hair with her hand and introduced: "The Six Studies of Taixue Academy are the six directions of academic research."
Therefore, these six kinds of knowledge are called six studies, namely Guozi study, Taixue, four studies, calligraphy, arithmetic, and law.
When Su Xun heard this, he was extremely shocked.
At this time, he realized that he was just a bumpkin in Yingzhou and didn't understand anything.
However, under the introduction of Lin Yanruo and others, he gradually understood what the Six Studies were.
Thanks to Taixue University, more than thousands of students are sent to Yingzhou every year.
These students are assigned to various industries so that every industry can develop.
Su Xun suddenly realized that the reason why Yingzhou was able to develop rapidly was probably because of these students.
No wonder, that humble scholar would be so respected, Su Xun suddenly understood.
The group of people continued to move forward, and Su Xun's knowledge gradually broadened along the way.
These systems and regulations gave Su Xun a profound understanding of the imperial capital.
In the blink of an eye, the group of people had arrived at Taixue Academy.
In front of the mansion, a plaque hung high, and two golden characters appeared in front of Su Xun.
"Tai Xue Fu!"
This is Taixue Academy, Su Xun said silently in his heart.
As everyone was about to move forward, a sound of yelling suddenly came from the crowd. Two soldiers holding halberds stopped everyone and said, "This is an important place in Taixue University. Don't trespass lightly."
Xiao Menglou calmly took out a house sign from his waist.
When the two soldiers saw this house sign, their expressions changed slightly. They immediately put away their halberds and said, "Please!"
Everyone, please!
Xiaomenglou made a gesture of invitation.
Everyone slowly entered Taixue Academy.
When Su Xun first entered Taixue Mansion, he felt that the layout of the mansion was regular, the workmanship was excellent, and the pavilions were intertwined with each other, making it quite exquisite.
The mansion building is divided into three roads: east, middle and north.
Each road has a huge passage. This is the first time Su Xun has seen such a layout.
Passing through the screen wall in front of the mansion, under the leadership of Xiao Menglou, the group looked at the east road and walked towards it.
This east road is connected by a garden.
After a while, everyone came to a white marble arched stone door.
Entering the stone gate, Su Xun saw a huge purple wisteria in full bloom.
It's such a big plant. Su Xun looked at the wisteria purple flower and couldn't help but exclaimed: "This plant must be a hundred years old at least!"
Brother Su has a good eye. This wisteria purple flower is indeed 120 years old.
Su Xun's heart trembled. Wisteria purpurea is not only a kind of landscape bonsai, but also has higher medicinal value.
The flower stamens are extracted to extract the floral oil, which can have detoxification effects. This is what Su Xun read from a medical book called "Qi Tan Tan".
Continuing to walk forward, there is another pond in the distance, and there are several pavilions above the pond.
The park is lined with strange rocks, surrounded by mountains and water, and winding paths lead to secluded places, giving it a unique style.
After making seven turns and eight turns, Su Xun and others arrived at the highest point of the rockery in the garden.
From the pavilion on the mountain, looking down at the numerous rockeries below, Su Xun was dazzled.
At the pavilion, two young men were playing Go in a leisurely and elegant manner.
Mr. Ma, Brother Yu, and Xiao Menglou cupped their hands.
One of the men in a green shirt yawned, stretched, and looked at Xiaomenglou. His eyes swept over Li Youran and Su Xun.
When his eyes fell on Lin Yanruo, with a slight smile on his face, he said: "Sister Lin is here too."
Mr. Ma, Taixue Academy is holding a debate class, so I naturally want to come. Lin Yanruo chuckled.
Master Ma, when the man in green shirt heard this, his expression changed slightly and he said: "A few years ago, when I was young, when I went to Qingyang City, you still called me Ma Ge."
I haven’t seen you in these years, but you look very pretty, but your temperament has also become clever and eccentric.
When Lin Yanruo heard this, her face turned pale as she recalled her childhood.
When they were young, Lin Yanruo and Ma Ziyue played together.
At that time, she was still young and not sensible. She was deceived by Ma Ziyue, calling her Ma Ge.
In fact, she is one year older than Ma Ziyue.
Ma Ziyue looked at Lin Yanruo with a playful smile and said: "Call Brother Ma and listen."
Bah, Lin Yanruo's face was stern and she said coldly: "Ma Ziyue, my sister is one year older than you. She was only deceived by you when she was young."
If you call me sister, and your sister feels comfortable hearing it, she will cancel all past grudges and grudges with you.
If not, Lin Yanruo's face would become even more serious.
Seeing Lin Yanruo's weird expression, Su Xun felt frightened in his heart. This scene had never happened before. It seemed like it was yesterday. It was still vivid in his mind.
To be continued...
