Zechang Academy divides students into four levels. Those who first understand the classics are arranged to study in Guangye Hall. The first courtyard behind Dachengmen is called Chongzhi Hall, and those who have smooth literature and science will learn from it. The third courtyard is the Taoist temple, which must reach the level of "economics and history, and excellent literature and science"; there are not many students in Zhengxing Hall, but they are all elites in the academy, and they are well-read in poetry and books, and it is not difficult for them to pass the imperial examination.

Most of the freshmen were divided into Guangye Hall. When Li Shicheng saw Jiang Anyi's name appear in Chongzhi Hall, his eyes showed envious light, which strengthened his mind to make friends with Jiang Anyi. When arranging his residence, Li Shicheng smiled and said, "Brother Jiang, you and I will fall in love with each other at first sight. It is better to share the rent together."

The residence is divided into ten areas, named after the heavenly stems and earthly branches. Jia is divided into Jiazi, Jiachou, Jiayin, etc. Yizi, Yichou, Yiyin, and the last Guizi, Guichou, Guiyin, Jia, and Yi are one room, Bing, Ding, Wu, and Ji are two rooms, Geng, Xin, Ren, and Gui are four rooms. The two each paid four taels of silver for food and accommodation and received the key to No. 4 of Bingziyuan.

There is a place for foster horses in the college, one tael of silver a month, which is more expensive than food and accommodation. Jiang Anyi took the baggage, and everyone gathered at the door, and a senior brother took him to the residence.

"It starts at the hour of Mao and is closed at the hour of Hai. This book of Zechang Academy Treaty is written. Remember to read it carefully after you go back. If you make a mistake, you will be punished." The senior brother who led the way explained the precautions of the academy. "On the twelve and twenty-fourth of each month, there will be teachers who will teach at three, six and nine. If you study at other times, you can ask the teacher directly, or record it in daily classes. Oh, what you learn every day must be recorded in daily classes, and submit it to the deputy lecturer for correction every ten days to answer questions."

"I only took ten classes in a month, and I can enjoy the mountains and rivers at other times, which is much easier than at home." A young man said with a smile.

The senior brother sneered with contempt, "It's better to go home early than having this idea, so as to save money. You should know that the academy has ten-day exams every ten-day exams, monthly exams at the end of the month, quarter exams at the end of the season, half-year exams and annual exams. As for what will happen if you don't get good exams, you will know then."

As soon as this sentence came out, there were a series of breathing sounds, and the young man's face was already as dark as earth.

"There is a farm next to the academy, and there are markets, shops, and restaurants on the academy. The people in the academy can take care of horses, wash and squeeze clothes, etc. If you need it, you might as well go and take a walk." When you come to the gate of Bingyuan, the senior brother who led the way stopped and told me, "If you don't understand, you can find me anytime. I live in No. 7, Bingyinyuan. My surname is Wu. Let's call me Lao Wu."

"Centipede, are you bringing the new student? There is a twenty-month supplement in the yard, so don't hide it. It's time for you to ask everyone to pause." Several scholars in blue shirt stepped out of the yard and saw that Old Wu pulled him up and left without saying a word. Old Wu threw an apology look at everyone and left.

A blue-gray brick road runs through the middle of the three-story courtyard. On both sides are large blue-brick tiled houses, six rooms on one side, there is a long corridor in front of the house, and a drainage ditches under the eaves of the corridor. You can go back and forth along the corridor. There are small doors open on the left and right corners to lead to a washing place.

The courtyard has a large space, and locust trees are planted in the upper left corner, like an umbrella covering the courtyard. There are stone tables and chairs at the bottom of the tree. Someone talks on the stone table, and there are several chess viewers around the yard. Flowers and plants are planted around the yard, the ground is cleaned very clean, and the sweeping marks of the bamboo broom are very clear.

Room No. 4 is in the fourth room on the left. There are two wooden beds in the room. The newly washed back mattress can be seen clean and emit the fragrance of sunshine. There are windows around the door, and there are square tables and two stools under the window. Inside the desk is a wooden cabinet, a bookcase above and a wardrobe below. There are two blue cloth shirts stacked in the wardrobe. Along the way, Jiang Anyi found that the students of the academy were all wearing such cloth shirts, which should be the uniform dress of the academy.

Looking at the simple and neat residence, Jiang Anyi was very satisfied. It was very similar to the academy in his heart. Li Shicheng fell on the bed, took a deep breath, and sighed: "I am finally a student of Zechang Academy."

At the hour of You, after dinner in the Dinner Hall, Li Shicheng disappeared in a blink of an eye. It was very lively outside, with people coming and going on the corridor, and people kept talking and laughing. When he arrived for the first time, Jiang Anyi was also a little nervous, sitting at the desk reading the Treaty, unable to concentrate, and from time to time I thought of his mother at home, An Yong and Yan'er.

As the lights were about to go out, Li Shichengcai came back with an excited expression and smiled when he entered the door: "Brother Jiang, I will go to make friends tonight. I didn't expect to encounter difficulties in debate between Ju Mingde and Fang Yuanchen at Jinfengting. Ju Mingde believes that governing should be based on virtue as the main law as the auxiliary law, while Fang Yuanchen believes that governing should be based on law as the main virtue as the auxiliary. The two are worthy of being among the four show of Zechang. This debate is exciting and feasting for the eyes."

"What four shows?"

"You don't even know Zechang's four Xiu, what about the four elders, four sages, and four sons?" Seeing Jiang Anyi being confused, Li Shicheng smiled complacently: "It seems that my brother doesn't know much about Zechang Academy. Brother Yu will tell you so that you won't be laughed at."

"What I just mentioned is that Jun Mingde, Fang Yuanchen and Liu Yushan and Feng Jiaqiang are both Zechang Sixiu. The name of Sixiu is determined by the students of the academy. It is not that simple. The fourth sons of this year are Yu Mingyang, Jinshi Huang Liang, Zheng Jixuan, and Chen Gongshu. Among them, Yu Mingyang, Zheng Jixuan, and Chen Gongshu were all figures among the four sons; Feng Haonan, the governor of Zechang Academy, Feng Shaojun, the governor of Dezhou, Deng Huaisu, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, and Wei Chaohuai, the chief censor, are the four sages in recent years."

Jiang Anyi secretly exclaimed, no wonder there are so many people coming to Zechang Academy to study. It is amazing to see the four sons and the four sages. Every three years, nearly 10,000 Jinshis are taken to the capital. However, the number of students from Zechang Academy who can get the Jinshisan is estimated to be no less than ten. This proportion is amazing. Among the four sages, he knows two of them. The mountain chief Feng Haonan once invited him to study at Zechang Academy. Feng Feng was very fond of himself and identified himself as the head of the case. It seems that he has a great fate with Zechang Academy.

Li Shicheng said that he was thirsty and did not care about his gentleness. He directly carried the teapot on the table and fucked his breath, and then said: "It is not easy to become the four elders. In addition to being highly respected and having a reputation among the Shilin, he also needs to serve as a third-rank official. Gao Guangyuan, the old man Gao was once the Minister of Rites and died of illness eight years ago; Cui Yuanzhi, the old man Cui retired as a censor, and now he is raising his family. The former mountain chief Fan Yanzhong, was a priest of the Imperial College, and his reputation was highly valued by the Shilin. Two years ago, he asked for retirement due to illness. After the emperor tried to stay, he was given a gold medal. Wei Mingyuan, the old man was appointed as the minister of Dali Temple, and was the leader of our academy. He was honest and upright, with strict law enforcement, and did not fear the powerful. He was praised by the emperor as a 'strong and resolute' person."

"There are now vacancies for the four elders. According to the qualifications, Lord Fang Linbin, the governor of Chenzhou, has a lot of hope to make up for it. However, Lord Fang is a little lacking in the reputation of the Si Lin. In order to successfully become the four elders, Lord Fang has convened many gatherings of scholars and elegant scholars in recent years, and I think he will get what he wants soon."

Li Shicheng exhaled with satisfaction and smiled: "The academy's background is unfathomable, and I can't explain it clearly to you for a while, you will know in the future."

There are only dozens of officials of the third rank or above in the court, and no less than four of them were born in Zechang Academy. In addition to other officials of all sizes, Zechang Academy has a deep foundation and is not unreasonable to be called "Ze Party". I listened to Master Yu's words and revealed that when I was very dissatisfied with my friends today, I didn't know whether it was a blessing or a disaster when I was studying at the academy this time.

It was late at night, and Li Shicheng had already fallen into a deep dream. Jiang Anyi was still tossing and turning in the bed, unable to sleep and studying hard. The scenes that were so successful appeared in the dream, and from time to time were mixed with scenes of debating with others. Jiang Anyi felt like a stone was pressing on his chest, and he couldn't breathe heavily.

The next day, the neat sound of reading woke Jiang Anyi up. Li Shicheng on the bed opposite him was gone. Jiang Anyi hurriedly got up, secretly annoyed why he had just slept in on the first day. After washing up quickly, he put on a blue cloth shirt and followed the direction of the sound to Guangye Hall. The wide courtyard was already neatly filled with students with blue shirts. A gentleman in a long sky-blue robe stood on a high place, leading everyone to recite the words of the Master loudly.

"The Master said: People are not kind, like etiquette. People are not kind, like joy..." Jiang Anyi stood among the crowd and gradually joined in the recitation. His voice gathered and stopped the clouds. The clear or thick sounds blended together. Jiang Anyi felt the vigorous air over Guangye Hall in a very clear way. This blue ocean contained infinite vitality.

Today is the first grade of junior high school, and there is no teaching in the academy. Jiang Anyi and Li Shicheng decided to go to Tibet to check out. There are so many people who have the only thought to get into Tibet. There are all kinds of books neatly stacked on rows of wide pine wood shelves: the speeches of various scholars, the interpretation of scriptures, poems, music, military and numerology, and old stories. Jiang Anyi's vision is lost in the ocean of books.

He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and gently touched the spine of running script with his fingertips. Jiang Anyi's heart was immersed in peace and joy. The little nervousness that had once been relieved without a trace by the fulfillment from his fingertips.

"An Yi, stop being idle, go and apply for a book borrowing card." Li Shicheng pulled Jiang Anyi excitedly to the left. There were long queues in front of two long tables, either to borrow or return books, and there were also people like Jiang Anyi who came to apply for a certificate.

It was Jiang Anyi's turn to receive two seniors, who were washed clean with blue cloth robe and made his face look very energetic. The senior with a long face on the left smiled gently, "I'll report my name and the book hall I was studying for when I got a book-borrowing card."

"Jiang'anyi, the rivers of the rivers, the peace and the righteousness of benevolence and righteousness, my brother is divided into Chongzhi Hall."

Hearing that Jiang Anyi was divided into Chongzhitang, the senior with a long face smiled and said, "It seems that my junior has only learned a lot, and he can be divided into Chongzhitang when he first comes to the academy."

The senior with a round face on the right looked up at Jiang Anyi, lowered his head and looked up the list in the book. Soon, he said, "Jiang Anyi, from Xinqi, Dezhou."

Seeing Jiang Anyi nodding, the long-faced senior took a green bamboo card and handed it to Jiang Anyi, "Chongzhi, No. 87, I have collected it. With this card, you can borrow two books at one time."

Li Shicheng next to him interrupted, "Why can I only borrow one book card?"

"The academy stipulates that the borrowing card is classified according to the book hall where they are located, with one book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a book with a smile.

Taking the two newly borrowed books, Jiang Anyi walked out of the treasure. Looking back at the towering buildings behind him, after more than two hundred years of storms, the treasure still stands tall. The mottled paint tells the eternal splendor of time, but makes the spiritual energy restrained and more solemn. Compared with the famous "Ze Party", Jiang Anyi thought that tens of thousands of books in this building are the real foundation of the academy.
