Chapter 38 The lord, just because we know each other but don't recognize each other
"Brother Lu Hu, you said you are a student of 'calligraphy'. How many courses are there in Yuelu Academy?" Chen Baiqi slightly opened his apricot eyes, looking like a curious and innocent young man asking questions.
Seeing this, Lu Hu smiled, and the ordinary young man's face became a little more handsome. He explained to her carefully: "There are six gates in this, namely 'phonology', 'Chinese studies', and 'Confucianism'
, 'Taoist studies', 'calligraphy' and 'arithmetic studies'."
Chen Baiqi said: "Then the choice rests with the students themselves?"
Lu Hu glanced at her speechlessly, and said helplessly: "The right to choose naturally lies with the students, but this decision-making power is no longer with them. It is up to the teacher whether a student who wants to be admitted to a certain subject can be admitted to that subject.
Eyes, that will naturally be..."
Perhaps he felt that what he said was intimidating the newcomers. Lu Hu was afraid that this newly admitted "underclassman" would be burdened with course selection, so he changed his words and quickly comforted him: "Don't say anything else, just rely on it."
Today's exchange between Bai Qi and Master Xu, I'm afraid there will be no problem in Master Xu's 'Confucian Studies' class."
Chen Baiqi wasn't worried about this issue at first, or she hadn't considered it yet. She thought that since she was the designated disciple of Mount Peinan, she didn't have to consider other subjects. She was taught by Mount Peinan himself. Now that she thought about it, she
Forked.
She asked: "Then... each student can only choose one subject?"
Lu Hu was stunned for a moment, looking at Chen Baiqi with a more speculative look. He probably never thought that someone would ask such a question.
If he doesn’t choose just one, is it possible that he still wants to choose a few courses when he first enters school?
Lu Hu frowned slightly, considered the wording, and then said: "This... there is no restriction, but in private, students usually only choose one subject. Gentlemen often say that you can't chew off more than you can chew. You can't master one subject yet, and you can't master everything
If you get even a little bit of rain and dew, you won’t be able to achieve excellence.”
Chen Baiqi could tell that Lu Hu probably felt that she was a bit "unscrupulous" person.
In fact, Chen Baiqi did have ulterior "ambitions", so she stopped saying anything.
She also knew that Lu Hu was advising her with good intentions not to go astray. Even if she disagreed, she would not refute it in public.
"Thank you, Brother Lu Hu, for your teaching." Chen Bai stopped and saluted Lu Hu.
Lu Hu quickly lifted her up, and his expression once again returned to the kind look of his younger brother. He patted her shoulder: "Hey, Bai Qi is too polite. In fact, the Internal Affairs Office will issue a copy of "Yuelu Academy" to each new student in a while.
There are rewards and punishments in the rules and regulations. If you memorize them carefully, you will know the affairs of Yuelu Academy. I am only here to have a casual chat with you, and I cannot afford to be so polite from you."
Chen Baiqi smiled gratefully at him, her eyes becoming more and more sincerely grateful. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and said hesitantly: "Brother Lu Hu, I have something to ask you here."
Lu Hu opened her mouth and said, "Why don't you tell me directly?"
Chen Baiqi said bluntly: "Actually, I still have a young brother in the countryside. He has no relatives or friends at home. As soon as I went up the mountain, he is now alone at home. I... I want to take him to the college and settle him down. I don't know...
Is there any difficulty in this matter?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Hu didn't understand anything.
He looked at her with pity, only a one-year-old younger brother was left... Well, he couldn't believe that such a free and smart young man Bai Qi had such a tragic life experience: "Oh, that's it. In fact, the academy has clearly stated that it is
No, but I seem to have heard that a precedent has been set for this matter, allowing some students in special circumstances to take care of their families, but this probably requires the approval of the mountain chief and a teacher."
When Chen Baiqi heard this, he had an idea in his mind.
While the two were chatting, Chen Baiqi wanted to get more information from Lu Hu's mouth, so he used his clever words to express his wit. How could Lu Hu resist Chen Baiqi's worldly wit? Along the way, he wanted to tell everything he knew.
Give it to everyone.
"In that case, Brother Lu Hu is expected to start training this year?"
"After seven years of going up the mountain and suffering from severe cold in summer, I finally learned a little bit about Sir. However, there is no end to learning. I still have a lot to learn. This time I just got Sir's permission to go down the mountain and return home." Lu Hu said modestly.
Smiling and shaking his head.
Suddenly, Lu Hu's laughter stopped on her lips, and the thread in her eyes seemed to be pulled by something, and she stared at one place blankly.
Chen Baiqi and Lu Hu were talking nicely. When she saw that he suddenly looked strange, she followed his eyes and saw what she saw also made her startled.
I saw a large hibiscus (hibiscus) tree not far away. The tree was only four or five feet tall, and its branches and leaves were whirling. Its flowers were deep red, five-pronged, as big as hollyhocks, decorated with gold shavings, and the sunlight shone like a flame.
I saw a skinny white crane dotted among them, with hundreds of them blooming every day, which seemed to coincide with the flowering period, which blooms in the morning and sets in the evening.
"Mutually……"
Chen Baiqi opened his mouth, shouted a syllable subconsciously, and immediately kept silent.
And Lu Hu turned her head slowly: "Xiang Huanxian, what are you talking about?"
Chen Baiqi calmed his expression and said calmly: "Nothing, I just don't know who is at the hibiscus flower place?"
When Lu Hu heard this, he turned his head, his usually shy and restrained face showed a kind of worship and yearning for the idol, and said: "Huanxian just came up the mountain not long ago, so I didn't know that this is an honored guest invited by our head of Mount Peinan, Mr. Xiangbo."
.”
Seeing that Lu Hu thought she was "ignorant", Chen Bai followed the topic and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Xiangbo. In the past, I heard people say that his abilities are amazing, but I have never seen them with my own eyes. Now it seems that he is really handsome."
He is a charming man, but...he seems to be in poor health."
Lu Hu frowned and shook his head: "Yes, I am really jealous of the talent."
"Since he is in poor health, why is there no servant around him to serve him?"
"Hmm...I don't know about that, but it is said that Mr. Xiangbo once had a servant boy who stayed close to him for many years. It's a pity...he died in Chu State at a young age."
Chen Baiqi was startled.
Could it be that the boy servant he was talking about was...
Chu State?
Why Chu State again?
Chen Baiqi concealed the fluctuation in his eyes and tried his best to ask in an ordinary and curious tone: "Oh, how did Brother Lu Hu know about this?"
Lu Hu said: "It seems to be a coincidence. When this happened, I happened to be traveling to the Chu country with my husband. At that time... well, in short, this incident was such a big deal that it's hard to explain."
"Then let's make a long story short." Chen Baiqi took advantage of the situation. Perhaps he felt that his tone was too eager. Chen Baiqi calmed down and explained: "Brother Lu Hu, in fact, I have always admired Mr. Xiangbo. It is rare to have good luck.
Being able to meet someone I have always admired is so close, even if I am unable to visit him in person due to my own insignificance, I still want to find out a little bit about him, I hope Brother Lu Hu doesn't mind."
Lu Hu could see that "Chen Huanxian" was particularly concerned about Mr. Xiang Bo. He hesitated and felt that this matter was not a major matter that needed to be concealed. Fang sighed and said: "Actually, I don't know much about this matter.
In detail, a big event happened in Chu State the year before last. After King Ling of Chu succeeded to the throne, the body of the eldest son of the former King of Chu was found soon after. Mr. Xiangbo seemed to be related to this matter.
During the pursuit, Mr. Xiangbo's boy servant blocked the knife for him and died. From then on, Mr. Xiangbo became enemies with the Chu State, and then he went to the Qin State."
After hearing this, Chen Baiqi was stunned for a long time.
The eldest son of the late King of Chu? How could he die? She remembered that she had clearly placed the child properly and taken him away. Why did he die?!
Who killed him... No, it couldn't be Mr. Xiangbo, and it shouldn't be him.
He had no reason to do that, right?
Although there were many doubts in his heart, Chen Baiqi thought that Lu Hu probably didn't know much about Lu Hu, and if she asked any more questions, it would probably arouse suspicion, so he stopped talking.
However, when she thought of this incident, she still felt a little heavy in her heart.
In fact, Chen Baiqi never wanted to have anything to do with the past. In fact, she was just deceiving herself, just because she delayed some time to adapt to... the fact that she had lost "them".
"Let's go." Chen Bai said.
"Why don't you go say hello?" Lu Hu looked at Mr. Xiang Bo who was admiring himself longingly, but he hesitated in his words.
It was such a rare opportunity that he couldn't control the urge to step forward and pour out his passionate admiration.
Chen Baiqi hesitated for a moment. She believed that even if Mr. Xiangbo was alone in the light, he would definitely be protected by guards in the dark. She didn't want to cause more trouble, so she said: "Sir, he is an expert in the world. Since he is alone, he is unwilling to
If someone is making noise nearby, it would be inappropriate for us to rush forward and disturb them."
Lu Hu is not an ignorant person, but this person is Mr. Xiangbo, a great man who is said to be able to distinguish ghosts and gods and has extensive knowledge of the past and present. He is really unwilling to let him leave like this: "But..."
Maybe they stood there for too long, so long that Mr. Xiangbo could spot them without paying attention.
He looked at them among the flowers. He glanced at Lu Hu first, and then his eyes froze for a moment when he touched Chen Baiqi's face.
This young man... why does he look so familiar?
This is of course, the female version of Chen Baiqi and the male version of Chen Huanxian are just like a pair of twins, the structure of the nose, eyes and mouth are almost the same.
And it was precisely because of this sense of familiarity that it was difficult to tell whether it was true or false, Mr. Xiangbo was the first to speak out.
"But students from Yuelu Academy?"
His voice was warm and light, like a pot of unscalded tea, but it had a presence that could not be ignored.
Chen Baiqi and Lu Hu did not dare to hesitate any longer and immediately stepped forward to ask for a courtesy.
Lu Hu was naturally excited and reserved, while Chen Baiqi looked at him from the corner of his eye.
Yesterday, he was in a hurry and had many taboos, so she had not taken a good look at him. Now when she looked at him again, she felt that it had been a long time since she had seen him. Although he still had the nature of immortals, Brahma and Buddha, he had lost the smell of smoke and was like a flawless statue.
Liuli, he seems to be getting weaker and weaker from the pain, his originally well-fitting robes are becoming more and more empty, his face is sickly pale, but his lips have a strange red color.
That red enchantment is like a white crane in desperate situation but arrogant and calm. The white feathers are weak and delicate. Even death can't take away his beauty. His eyes are still tough and exquisite, leaving behind a trace.
Lazy, just as touching.
he's changed.
Chen Baiqi has never been so sure as at this moment.
Compared with the Mr. Xiangbo in front of her, the Mr. Xiangbo she knew made her feel so much stranger.
