Traveling through time and space
Chapter 64: Academy News
"I've heard before that he had a younger sister and was engaged to the Han family. He behaved well and later died."
"That's enough. You are the ones who are truly disgraceful and bringing shame to your father. I will ask my father to impeach your father in the court tomorrow for his poor parenting. Miss Su, I will personally accompany you to see the scenery of this academy."
"Okay, I'll trouble you, Brother Ge." Su Yuanyuan didn't want to talk to those people anymore. It was really disrespectful.
"I have met the princess, and I am glad to see her angry."
"It's okay, second brother, don't let them disturb our interest. The scenery over there is nice, but why is that old man standing there motionless? Is he meditating?" Su Yuanyuan joked.
"This old senior is called Wu Fuchang, he is 62 years old this year. He passed the imperial examination at the age of 17, but he has been stagnant ever since. He has been taking exams continuously over the years, but he has never been successful. His luck is really too bad. He either gets a stomachache during exams, falls into the water and becomes sick, or has a car accident. Anyway, he has never been successful." After the second brother finished speaking, he shook his head with some regret.
"Is it worth it for him? He's already in his twilight years, and all because he's been so focused on taking the exam, he's completely cut off from the joy of family."
"But for him, taking the exam is something he enjoys. It's the goal he's been working towards."
"Brother Ge, that's not how it works. At his age, he should have had a wife and children, surrounded by grandchildren. Because of this obsession, he's lost so many beautiful things. At least, that's what Yuanyuan thinks. It's really not worth it. Life is only a few short decades long, and you've wasted a lifetime just for an obsession. It's not worth it, not worth it." Seeing the pensive old man, "Withered vines, old trees, crows in the dusk; small bridges, flowing water, and houses; ancient roads, west wind, thin horses; the setting sun; a heartbroken man at the end of the world." Su Yuanyuan lamented the old man, his obsession, and his family.
"Miss, could you tell me what this poem is and what it means?" Gradually, more and more people came over.
"This is the teacher of our academy, our Master Pei." The second brother and Ge Congwen both greeted him.
"Master, I apologize for my poor performance. Expressing my feelings in this academy always seems like showing off my knowledge before an expert. I just felt inspired by that person."
"The girl is very talented, but she is too modest. Excessive modesty is self-destructive."
"Little girl, how can you describe me like that?" The man also heard the voice over here and came over. After greeting, he grumbled to Su Yuanyuan with some dissatisfaction.
"Mr. Wu, I am not wrong. To your family, aren't you a wanderer? To yourself, aren't you frustrated? Aren't you missing your hometown and your family just now? Don't you feel sad and tired of wandering in your heart?" Su Yuanyuan asked him back.
"Okay, okay, okay, I admire you." The lady was delighted, but Mr. Wu was a little unhappy and bowed and walked away.
"Brother Cai, is this really your sister? Cousin, cousin, or biological sister? Why don't you just bear the pain and give her to me, Senior Zhao?" The man surnamed Zhao stepped forward, looking a little disgusted, "I will marry her today."
"How dare you say such dirty words, young lady, I'm sorry."
"Student greets the headmaster." Everyone bowed and saluted when they saw the newcomer. It turned out that this was the headmaster.
"Principal, thank you for your courtesy. Some of us are really not suitable to study in the academy anymore." Su Yuanyuan bowed slightly.
"Yuanyuan, don't be rude," the second brother stepped forward and pulled Su Yuanyuan away.
"Principal, I have always heard that Rongde Academy is innovative in teaching, research and environment, and is ahead of other academies in Qingyang. I have always admired it. Today I had the opportunity and wanted to come and appreciate it, but I didn't expect to cause trouble. I am really sorry." Su Yuanyuan saluted to the principal.
"Although the girl is a woman, she is also an open-minded person. From her tone, it can be seen that she is not affected by these things. I, the dean, would like to say sorry. Some disciples still have some conservative ideas. It should be I who should apologize to the girl." The dean bowed deeply to Su Yuanyuan.
"You're too polite, Master. I can't bear it. Everything that happened today is ultimately my fault." Su Yuanyuan felt a little embarrassed after saying this.
"Miss, if you have time, please come in and chat." He made an invitation. Su Yuanyuan hesitated and looked at Ge Cai and the others.
"You all should come together. After listening to what the girl said just now, I feel that I am no worse than you." The headmaster said to the people standing behind him.
"It would be disrespectful to refuse." Su Yuanyuan suddenly found this headmaster very interesting. Seeing the two people who had just said they wanted to take her as concubines, "Yulin, keep an eye on them. We will settle our personal grudges with them later." Su Yuanyuan ordered. "Headmaster, please go first." Su Yuanyuan hadn't thought about it. Following this old man in front of her, who was not really an old man, but only a middle-aged headmaster, she felt like she had an extra teacher. She followed him into the house, where a group of people sat down and talked. Su Yuanyuan had the idea of finding a teacher. She used all her energy to write down all the warning quotes from the "Encouragement to Study" in her mind, mainly borrowing from Han Yu. As expected, it shocked the whole place. All kinds of praise were said without paying, and there was more shock. The second brother and Ge Congwen were even more surprised. This was something Su Yuanyuan had never shown before.
"Girl, I am impressed by your talent. Do you want to become my disciple?" The headmaster's joy was beyond words.
"Agree quickly, agree quickly." The happiest person seemed to be the second brother, who was pulling Su Yuanyuan's clothes from behind.
"I am deeply grateful for your favor, Principal. I would like to become your disciple and listen to your teachings." Su Yuanyuan bowed respectfully and earnestly. "Sir, I'm sorry. There is one thing I have concealed from you. I am Princess Anle, Su Yuanyuan." Su Yuanyuan kept bowing, thinking that she should make her identity clear.
"Are you the legitimate princess?" The headmaster was also shocked by Su Yuanyuan's identity.
"Yes, sir, I am a legitimate princess, but in front of you, I am just a student. You must not regret it, as I have already accepted the gift of apprenticeship from you."
"Okay, Princess, please stand up and speak." As soon as the gentleman said this, Dongmei hurried forward to help Su Yuanyuan up. "Princess, are you prepared?"
"No, I've heard of Rongde Academy and have always wanted to visit. Today, I followed my second brother and had the opportunity to enter the academy and meet the teacher. That's why I had this idea. It's my honor to be your disciple." Su Yuanyuan spoke with sincerity. With the guidance of the teacher, everything he said in the future would be logical. The two knelt in front of Su Yuanyuan, "Seniors, what can I do for you?"
