After sending Ran Qingmo back to the Chess and Ming Division, Qin Guyue quickly faced her next to-do agenda - to accompany Long Yin to the Lotus Flower Pond for a drink!

Fortunately, Qin Guyue has the badge of the Meritorious Affairs Department in her hand, and can freely travel to various departments of the Sage Academy. Otherwise, he has only entered the Sage Academy for more than half a month, how would he know where the Rites and Music Department is? And the Sage Academy

The main courtyard itself is a barrier, and the layers of space combined are larger than Yunjing City. If you look for it like a headless fly, you probably won't be able to find the Department of Ritual and Music for a whole day.

A cloud of purple energy dispersed, and Qin Guyue had already arrived under the archway of the Department of Ritual and Music through the tokens of saints.

There were two female disciples of Ge Yi standing on both sides of the door. They were obviously only the lowest-ranking boys in the Ritual and Music Department. However, everyone in the Ritual and Music Department practiced music and dance, so the temperament of these two boys was still very good.

When Qin Guyue, dressed in white, came over, she held her fists and bowed. The female disciple on the left immediately asked, "Senior brother, please stay. I wonder if there is an invitation?"

Qin Guyue suddenly thought, it seems that she didn't ask for an invitation from Longyin... Could it be that she needs an invitation to enter the Ritual and Music Department?

Just as he stood there awkwardly, he saw a graceful woman in a pink dress walking out of the palace of the Department of Ritual Music. The two female disciples at the door saluted immediately when they saw the woman in white:

"Senior Sister Xiaohan..."

Qin Guyue knew that Hanlian was actually the alias of lotus. The place where Longyin made an appointment with him was the Lotus Flower Pond. Could it be that the woman in front of him who was called "Xiaohan" was the disciple in charge of the Lotus Flower Pond in the Ritual and Music Department?

Before Qin Guyue could speak, the woman in a pink dress had already walked up to Qin Guyue, put her hands on the lower left side, bowed slightly and said, "I think this one must be Senior Brother Gu Huaisha from the Merit Department.

"

Seeing that the woman recognized her, Qin Guyue was about to ask something when she saw Xiaohan straighten up and said with a smile: "Senior Brother, you are a little late. Senior Sister Longyin has been waiting for you for a long time." [

At this time, the two girls at the door were stunned. They had heard when they came out today that the "goddess" Long Yin in the Department of Merit actually reserved a place in the lotus pond today to wait for someone. Originally, everyone was waiting for someone.

I guess the person I made the appointment with is at least the deputy director of each department.

Si, or even one of several young sages, many people even speculated that Chu Yan, the deputy director of the Assessment Department who had been pursuing Long Yin, was so sincere that he finally moved the heart of Long Yin...

Who would have known that the person coming was this apostle dressed in white.

Wait, this name...

Soon they realized that this "Gu Huaisha" seemed to be the one who had completed the extremely difficult entrance task? It seemed that there were rumors outside that he was the crown prince of the Shengtian Dynasty and Prince Ye's stand-in in the Sage Academy.

He is also a third-rank official in the Shengtian Dynasty!

Going to "Gu Huai Sha" is equivalent to going to Prince Ye of the Shengtian Dynasty... Although these girls have also heard about Prince Linxi and Prince Ye competing for the throne in the Shengtian Dynasty, if the prince wins,

If you go to "Guhuaisha", you will inevitably be named a marquis in the future, and at least you will be the wife of the marquis' mansion.

This is a big thick leg falling from the sky!

But before the two boys could look at Qin Guyue for a few more times, Miss Xiaohan smiled at Qin Guyue and said, "Senior Brother Gu, come with me..."

Qin Guyue responded and followed Miss Xiaohan into the main entrance of the Ritual and Music Department. Qin Guyue saw that the Ritual and Music Department was full of flowers and plants, including many exotic flowers and plants. She couldn't help but linger and took a few more glances.

, only to hear the girl Xiaohan next to her explain: "Our Ritual and Music Department has a dedicated person to take care of the flowers and plants. The sage Shaoyin of the Department believes that flowers and plants can improve the mood and nourish the soul, so he collected many exotic flowers and plants from all over Tianzhou.

They were planted using magic techniques, so we have the beautiful scenery of 'flowers blooming all year round, and every season a scene' in our Ritual and Music Department."

"Oh? Is the Department of Ritual and Music made by Shaoyin Xian?" Qin Guyue heard the words "Shaoyin Xian" and couldn't help thinking in her heart: "This Shaoyin Xian is in charge of the Chess and Ming Department.

And the Department of Ritual and Music? Then isn’t this girl Xiaohan in front of me... Ran Qingmo’s senior sister?"

"Of course it is." Miss Xiaohan smiled sweetly, as if she had heard a very interesting joke. She led Qin Guyue forward and said: "Our Ritual and Music Department is not as good as your Merit Department, and we don't have much on weekdays.

That’s why Shaoyin Sage was in charge of our Ritual and Music Department and Chess and Ming Department, which are relatively small. Some sages were in charge of four or five departments at once.”

"Then girl, aren't you and Ran Qingmo..."

Before Qin Guyue could finish asking, Miss Xiaohan had already smiled and said: "Junior Sister Qingmo, I know the little girl. Although they are all under the sage Shaoyin in name, she is obviously much luckier than me.

She is the disciple of Master Si Tang, so in terms of status, she is much higher than me..."

Qin Guyue felt relieved after hearing Xiaohan's words. Otherwise, wouldn't it be very deceptive? She was invited by Long Yin to the lotus flower pond, and there was a Qingmo senior sister doing eyeliner next to her. Isn't this right?

Seeking death?

While they were talking, the two of them had already walked into a large lotus pond. It was midsummer at this time, and the entire lake with a radius of several miles was densely covered with lotus flowers. Dragonflies were dancing on the lotus leaves, and under the lotus leaves.

, the koi fish swim and leap, it’s so beautiful.

In the middle of the lotus pond is a stage that can accommodate a hundred people. It must be where the Department of Ritual and Music rehearses songs and dances on weekdays.

At this time, Qin Guyue saw several boys in ge robes coming and going by the lotus pond, holding cups and plates, placing fruits and wine vessels on the tables, making it a busy scene.[

Some apostles and saints in white and red robes had already sat down and were chatting with each other.

Obviously, going to the Lotus Flower Pond of the Ritual and Music Department for a date, the person who can be treated like this is either rich or noble, or both rich and noble. I am afraid that it will not be easy for ordinary disciples, even with money and merit points.

Booked a seat.

"Where are our seats?" As soon as Qin Guyue finished speaking, Miss Xiaohan laughed again. "What? Senior Brother Gu doesn't want to sit in the private room facing the stage. Do you want to enjoy the breeze outside?"

"Ah?" Before Qin Guyue could react, Xiaohan had already led Qin Guyue onto a small boat beside the lotus pond and rowed towards a waterside pavilion opposite the center of the pond.

"These seats outside can be booked by ordinary people with a little effort..." Miss Xiaohan stood on the boat and explained: "But with so many people gathering together, it can only be regarded as a novelty. Really

What kind of romance can we talk about? What kind of love can we talk about? I guess Senior Sister Longyin has something to talk to you about, so I decided to stay in the private room." Looking at Qin Guyue next to him, Xiaohan covered his mouth softly and said, "If it weren't for me

I am familiar with Senior Sister Longyin, and she is also famous. How can an ordinary apostle find a good position facing the stage?"

Qin Guyue heard Xiaohan's words and couldn't help frowning: "Isn't there singing and dancing at night? The price of that elegant room must be quite high, right?"

"There must be singing and dancing, otherwise no one would pay such a high price to come here and watch the lotus flowers and the moon?" Miss Xiaohan laughed out loud, covering her mouth and said: "As for how much it will cost, you still have to pay.

You can ask Senior Sister Longyin yourself, it’s hard for me to say, right?”

Not long after, the boat docked and stopped next to the waterside pavilion. Qin Guyue saw that the waterside pavilion was covered with gauze, and there was a bead curtain inside the gauze. In the center of the waterside pavilion was a tripod of Kuiwen incense burner, and two soft incense burners.

Bamboo seats and a mahogany carved table.

Although it cannot be said to be very luxurious, it is quite noble and elegant.

When Qin Guyue stepped off the boat and stepped onto the waterside pavilion, there was already a person sitting on one side of the mahogany carved table. He was dressed in white Confucian clothes. He leaned lightly on the table with his elbow and held a book in his right hand.

He flipped through it gently with his left hand, obviously looking at it very seriously.

It wasn't until Qin Guyue opened the bead curtain that she heard a soft "squeak" sound that woke her up from reading. She looked at Qin Guyue walking into the waterside pavilion and smiled lightly and said: "Huaisha, you're here.

, I thought you wouldn’t come over until night at Qimingsi.”

"How could this be possible..." Qin Guyue also smiled and sat down cross-legged on the soft mat opposite Longyin, but her eyes involuntarily fell on the book she was holding in her hand, "This book

yes?"

Seeing that Qin Guyue was curious, Longyin had no intention of hiding anything. He generously handed the scroll in his hand to Qin Guyue and said: "This is Yasheng's new work. I have already asked the rubbing department to help me."

I made a rubbing, but it wasn’t brought to me until a few days ago..."

"Oh? Is this..." Qin Guyue looked at the scroll in her hand, feeling the rough feeling of the paper in her hand and the three big characters on the cover, and couldn't help but frown: "Is this "The Theory of Sheji"?"

"That's right..." Long Yin heard Qin Guyue's words and said with a slight smile on his lips: "This is a rumor among the people. It is a book called Sheji Lun that angered Bing Gehou Qin Zhantian and made him defect to the side of King Linxi.

"

"Oh?" Of course Qin Guyue has also heard the rumors that her father Qin Zhantian's sudden switch to King Linxi's camp is related to "The Theory of Sheji", but books like "The Theory of Sheji" are not available in the market.

He couldn't get the original, or even a neater manuscript, so he never looked at it.

At this time, Long Yin actually had an original copy of the Rubbing Division in his hand. How could Qin Guyue not think carefully about what words in the "Sheji Lun" actually encountered Qin Zhantian's objections and made such a mature and cautious person?

The famous general angrily defected to King Linxi.

"Huaisha, anyway, it's still a while before dark. I see that although you are a disciple of Longyin Pavilion, you are also very interested in the teachings of Confucianism. Just read this "She Ji Lun"."

Longyin took his hand back, put it gently on his knees, and said with a smile: "Maybe you have thoroughly understood the "She Ji Lun", and your future achievements in this Confucian Sage Academy will be greater than your achievements in Longyin."
