The Time Traveling Anchor and Her Eight Hundred Fence-Sitters

Qu Shanbai is the teacher of Xunshan Academy.

Xunshan Academy is a very famous academy in Beijing. A hundred years ago, it produced a man named Zhang He, who was the most talented scholar in the world, and a high-ranking official named Duan. Since then, it has been sought after by the world and has had many students.

But not everyone can enter Xunshan Academy.

They would often examine the character, family background and talent of the students, and finally select the best ones to be admitted into the academy.

In recent years, the political situation in Tianying was turbulent, and Xunshan Academy also changed a bit. It became a place where the powerful and wealthy in the capital competed with each other and even formed cliques.

Given the power and status of the He family, it would be difficult for the brothers and sisters to enter the Xunshan Academy.

But Qu Shanbai was a disciple of Grand Tutor He Qishan, and because of their old friendship, he gave him some care and allowed all the brothers and sisters of the He family to study in that academy.

He Shiyi brought Zhao Mianmian to Xunshan Academy on the first day. He recognized a few people and regarded himself as a disciple.

When she came out of the academy, she only remembered an old man with gray hair named Mr. Qu, and a serious middle-aged man named Mr. Zhuang. As for the others, she just glanced over them and didn't even have a general impression of them.

[Host, you seem to be the youngest in this academy! ]

[Tsk tsk, the anchor is only three and a half years old, and he already has to go to school. It seems that life in ancient times was no easier than it is today.]

[That's right. Here, children go to kindergarten at the age of three, and all they do is eat and play. But the ancient academy doesn't seem to be that easy. Maybe they have to memorize books every day!]

Zhao Mianmian was still confused after being sent to Xunshan Academy by He Jianxing with just one sentence. When she suddenly heard that she had to memorize the book, she instantly became like a deflated ball.

Zhao Mianmian:

[Ah, no way, didn't you say you were going to get an enlightenment education? Why do I have to memorize the book? ! ! ]

The folklore professor in the live broadcast room immediately jumped out:

【? Host, don’t you know? ? In ancient times, enlightenment was based on memorization. I can’t teach you the Thousand Character Classic, the Three Character Classic, the Rules for Being a Good Pupil or something like that! 】

Zhao Mianmian curled her lips, looking reluctant:

[What will happen if I can't memorize this book? Will they even deprive me of food?! ]

The comments first comforted her, and then gave her some advice:

[No, at most he will be punished by standing in the corner or being beaten with a stick.]

[Host, you can actually ask the young man from the He family about this question. I think with his personality, he must have been punished a lot in the past. Who knows, he may have a lot of "secrets" that he can pass on to you!]

[Hahaha, what secrets? Secrets for skipping classes, or secrets for being lazy? ? Aren’t you afraid that the anchor will lose all his pants because of that He family kid?! ]

[How is that possible? We are here! If the host really doesn't know how to do it, we can give her some high-tech equipment!]

[What? The one in front, what high-tech? ? ]

[Well, we have a real-time online auxiliary tool on the Internet that can search for any stored articles. If the host can't memorize it, we can search it and show it to her on the barrage. That's it.]

[The online auxiliary tool you are talking about, could it be... Baidu? ? ]

[Yes, yes, yes, you have it there too? ]

【Hehehe. 】

Zhao Mianmian:

【…】

Although the audience in the live broadcast room did not solve Zhao Mianmian's troubles, they provided her with a solution to the problem, which made Zhao Mianmian feel at ease again.

**

There were actually quite a few disciples in Xunshan Academy, but those of He Shiqian's generation, who had already reached adulthood, took the imperial examinations early and left the academy.

The remaining older ones were arranged in the Academy of Heroes to learn the theory of state governance from Mr. Qu.

Those who were still young stayed in Chengming Court, where they were taught by Mr. Zhuang according to their aptitude.

Zhao Mianmian is just over three years old, so she must be educated in Chengmingyuan.

Besides her, there are several other children in Chengming Courtyard who are about the same age as He Shiyi.

The most prominent among them were Liang Yufu, Princess Jingyang of Prince Ning's Mansion, and her brother Liang Yuansheng, who was born to the same mother as her.

Princess Jingyang is already twelve years old this year. Logically, she should go to the Hall of Heroes after the end of autumn.

But she felt that the Qunying Courtyard was full of nerds, with too many rules and high requirements, and it would be better to be relaxed and comfortable in Chengming Courtyard. So she tried every means to persuade her family to let her stay in Chengming Courtyard for another year.

In addition to Princess Jingyang, there were two other disciples who were supposed to transfer to the Academy of Heroes.

One was Li Peiyan, the son of the Southwest Jiedushi who had just turned thirteen, and the other was Wu You, the only son of the Earl of Chengyi whom Zhao Mianmian had met before.

It is not surprising that Wu You did not transfer to Qunyingyuan.

He was the only one in his family and was destined to inherit the title of Marquis Chengyi Wu Zhang in the future, so it didn't matter much whether he took part in the imperial examination or not.

In addition, Wu You was used to being idle, as he spent his days eating, drinking, playing, playing chicken and dog fighting with his friends. He could not adapt to the rules and intensity of Mr. Qu's work, so he simply stayed in Chengmingyuan for a few more years and mixed in the circle.

As for Li Peiyan, it is much more complicated.

In short, as the youngest son of Li Hongfei, the governor of Southwest China, and the only relative of Concubine Li in Beijing, Li Peiyan's identity was more like a "hostage".

A hostage used to check and balance the military power in the southwest.

As a proton, of course I can't be like other students in the academy, learning whatever I want and going wherever I want...

Zhao Mianmian stayed in the academy for three days. During these three days, she relied on the audience in the live broadcast room to sort out her interpersonal relationships.

To describe it in one word, it's chaos.

The root of the chaos is...

In the words of the audience in the live broadcast room, except Zhao Mianmian, everyone is either rich or noble, and is not someone a little orphan like Zhao Mianmian can possibly offend!

Therefore, based on the principle that less is better, Zhao Mianmian basically does not talk to anyone else except He Shiyi.

When she really encounters a situation that she cannot avoid, she just uses the three panacea phrases taught to her by her fans: "Mianmian doesn't know", "Mianmian knows", "What did you say?", and she can almost get away with it.

Within a few days, everyone knew that the incredibly fair and pretty Zhao Mianmian was actually a weak-willed girl who knew nothing.

Since she had just started learning, Master Zhuang did not intend to put any pressure on Zhao Mianmian. He usually just let her recite two pages of a book and go play in the yard.

It's called fun, but it's actually quite boring.

If Zhao Mianmian hadn't been waiting for He Shiyi to finish school and go home together, she would have slipped back to Linlan Courtyard and taken a nap.

However, the fans in her live broadcast room seemed to have discovered a new world and kept directing her to walk around here and dig there.
