A Clash of Gods - Chapter 184

[Chapter 183 The girl is like a cloud]

Early the next morning, Yang Ning asked the accountant to take a 500 tael bill, and Duan Canghai led the two of them to personally escort them to Qionglin Academy.

Although it hasn’t snowed yet, it has already hit a layer of frost. Yang Ning is wearing a brocade cotton robe and a black cloak, but it is also very warm.

It has to be said that even if the Hou Mansion is a little stretched financially, it is still much stronger than ordinary people, at least it has no worries about food and clothing.

Yang Ning couldn’t help but think, if it weren’t for the coincidence of that time, he didn’t know what he would be like now. Although with his own ability, he would not be cold and starving, but it would definitely not be more than being a marquis. it is good.

The group of four walked on horseback, not in a carriage, and headed east of the city. Yang Ning didn’t know where Qionglin Academy was, but Duan Canghai was very familiar with it. After walking for half an hour, they turned to a long street. After walking for a long time, I saw a tall standing gate appeared in front of it, with blue brick and red pillars, directly above the standing gate, with four vermilion characters written on it.

Qionglin Academy!

On the left and right of the door, there is a white wooden board, but a sentence is written on it from top to bottom, which is a couplet.

The left one reads “De Ling Gu Shan Scroll”, and the right one reads “Small Taoyuan in the Bustling City”.

Yang Ning saw the characters on the plaque and couplet. Although he was not proficient in calligraphy, he could feel that these characters seemed to be understated, but each stroke seemed to contain infinite momentum, and he couldn’t tell what momentum it was. But it always makes people feel extraordinary, knowing that this couplet also has the four characters of Qionglin Academy on the plaque, which should be written by Zhuo Qingyang, the director of Qionglin Academy.

He learned from Tang Nuo that there are four masters of art in the world today, and Zhuo Qingyang is one of them, and he is a top master in calligraphy.

On the edge of the academy, there is a rather chic log cabin. There is an old man in his fifties. When he saw someone coming, he immediately stuck his head out and shouted, “Who is that?”

Duan Canghai smiled and said, “Is it Uncle Ren? We belong to the mansion of Hou Jinyi, and Hou Jinyi came to visit Mr. Zhuo in person.” He approached Yang Ning and said in a low voice, “Master Hou, this is the old man who guards the door. I have been here for nearly ten years, and I used to come here with the third lady, and I knew him well, and everyone called him Renbo.” Seemingly worried that Yang Ning didn’t know the rules of the academy, he added: “If you enter Qionglin Academy, you will be treated equally. , there is no high or low.”

Yang Ning smiled and said, “I know.” I thought that Zhuo Qingyang had once been Qi Jing’s teacher and was one of the four masters of the arts. Few of these figures would dare to pose in front of him.

The old man recognized Duan Canghai and said with a smile, “It turned out to be from the Jinyi Hou’s mansion. You know the rules.”

Duan Canghai cupped his hands with a smile, and then took a wine bag from his waist and threw it over. The old man seemed to be used to it, and he reached out to take it, very skilled.

Seeing his skill, Yang Ning thought that he had two strokes.

“Master Hou, we can’t go in.” Duan Canghai said: “But there won’t be any danger in the academy, you go in first, we will wait outside.”

Yang Ning nodded, turned over and dismounted, took a small package from the horse’s back, and carried it directly into the academy.

The front of Qionglin Academy is simple and elegant, and it is not very conspicuous, but when he entered it, Yang Ning realized that there are caves, small rockeries, small ponds, pavilions and bridges, Jinsong and Hanmei. The layout is unique, like a garden. Everywhere is beautiful.

Walking along a fairly wide bluestone road, there are more students coming and going. This Qionglin Academy is a women’s academy, and there are no male students, so all you can see are cardamom girls.

Some of these female students were chanting lightly with their scrolls in their hands, while others were sitting by the pool pondering, while others gathered together, chatting and laughing.

Yang Ning had known before that this Qionglin Academy was very strict in selecting students, and Zhuo Qingyang had to pass the test in person before he could be admitted to the academy.

In this era, men are superior to women, and women’s incompetence is virtue. If it wasn’t for Zhuo Qingyang’s groundbreaking opening of this Qionglin Academy,

I’m afraid that in a few hundred years, no woman will be admitted to the academy with such integrity. Moreover, Zhuo Qingyang’s selection of students only looks at their talents, not their appearance. This can be seen from the clothes of these female students in the academy, most of them are From an ordinary family.

Before Yang Ning came to the academy, he didn’t think so, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn’t help but admire Zhuo Qingyang.

A man suddenly appeared in the academy, which naturally attracted the attention of the female students. The young girls all looked at Yang Ning with strange eyes, and some girls bit their ears and whispered to Yang Ning from time to time. Looking over, there is also a bolder girl who directly pays attention to Yang Ning.

Although Yang Ning is not Pan An and Song Yu, he is also handsome and handsome. Originally, his skin was a little dark, but after these days, his skin has become a little paler. In addition, he is dressed in brocade clothes and a rather cool cloak. In addition, there is a bit more extravagance, and it is no wonder that it attracts the attention of many girls.

Yang Ning enjoys being noticed by many young girls. He is a very bold person. He has two generations, and his face is not thin. When he sees a good-looking girl, he smiles and nods from time to time, a handsome young man. The posture is also leisurely.

Suddenly I saw three or four girls gathered in front of me and pointed at him, and then a girl ran out from inside, but at the age of fifteen or sixteen, she was quite handsome, and her face was flushed. Yang Ning saw him straight. Running towards him, he was a little surprised, thinking that this girl from Qionglin Academy was so open, wouldn’t she just run over to confess to herself?

When the girl arrived in front of Yang Ning, she didn’t talk too much and asked straight to the point, “You…are you Mr. Jiang who came to teach us today?”

“Young Master Jiang?” Yang Ning was startled, thinking that the girl must have identified the wrong person, then shook his head and said, “No, my surname is not Jiang!”

The girl wondered, “Am I remembering it wrong?” Seemingly unwilling, she asked again, “Then you came from the East China Sea?”

“East China Sea?” Yang Ning asked curiously, “Why, are you waiting for Young Master Jiang of the East China Sea?” He suddenly thought of something, his brows tightened, and he thought of someone coming.

East China Sea?

Jiang Gongzi?

Jiang Suiyun?

Yang Ning had already thought at this time that Jiang Suiyun, who was with Dou Lianzhong the night before yesterday, came from the East China Sea. The Jiang family was a tycoon in the East China Sea. He had his own fleet, and went to sea to trade. Cloud is apparently still in the capital now.

Is it really so coincidental that Jiang Suiyun will also come to Qionglin Academy today?

“Yeah, Young Master Jiang is a great talent in the East China Sea and has many talents. Mr. Zhuo said that he will come to the academy to give lectures today.” , he must know a lot of things, we are all looking forward to it.” After looking at Yang Ning, he asked suspiciously: “You really aren’t the Jiang Gongzi we are waiting for?”

Yang Ning was about to answer, but he heard a voice behind him coldly say, “He’s not Young Master Jiang, how could Young Master Jiang look like this? Do you want to know who he is?”

Yang Ning heard the voice and felt a little familiar, so he couldn’t help turning around, only to see a group of girls walking by, five or six girls walking slowly around a woman.

The woman wore a white brocade jacket, a moiré velvet skirt, a snow feather shoulders, and gold-trimmed silver-lined snow raccoon fluff. She looked very noble, while the woman’s hair was lightly tied in a silver jade purple moon hairpin. , applying pink rouge to make her delicate and fair face even more white and red, her face like a hibiscus, and her appearance is quite delicate, but there is a contemptuous smile on that pretty face, which makes people look very uncomfortable.

Yang Ning only glanced at it, and even frowned, his eyes also showed disgust.

No wonder the voice was quite familiar, but I had seen it before, and this woman turned out to be Su Zixuan, the daughter of Su Zhen, the Marquis of Wuxiang.

Yang Ningwan never expected to meet her here.

He was in a good mood at first, but at this time it was like biting a fly at a big meal, and he was very depressed.

Three or four steps away from Yang Ning, Su Zixuan stopped and looked at Yang Ning with contempt. The girls around her were all well-dressed, apparently from wealthy families, and someone had already asked, “Zixuan, Don’t you know him? Isn’t he Jiang Gongzi?”

“Of course not. UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com” Su Zixuan looked at Yang Ning coldly, with a sneer on her lips, she said without hesitation, “Have you heard of the Hou Jinyi?”

All the girls said in succession: “Naturally, I know that Jinyi Hou is not one of the four hereditary nobles, and he is on an equal footing with your family’s Wuxiang Hou.”

“Then do you know that General Qi has a brocade-clothed prince who is stupid and stupid?” Su Zixuan raised her chin slightly and said arrogantly, “Many people call him a brocade-clothed idiot.”

“Oh, Zi Xuan, is that Qi Ning who made a baby kiss with you?” Someone next to him said, “You told us that that idiot toad in brocade clothes wants to eat swan meat, and you wouldn’t agree to kill him.”

Su Zixuan said proudly, “Yes, it’s that fool. He did have a baby kiss with me, but it was a random marriage arranged by the old man. I told you that I already told my father to cut off that marriage.”

“Zixuan, you are so beautiful, and your father is the Marquis of Wuxiang. The sons of many princes and nobles want to climb high, and people who want to marry you can line up from the capital to the Qinhuai River.” A girl next to him giggled and said, “That You idiot, of course you don’t like it.”

“Yeah, Zi Xuan, this marriage is a good decision, otherwise you will be married back by that fool, and your life will be over.”

Several girls were chattering, nothing more than praising Su Zixuan’s beauty as a fairy, and she must never marry a brocade-clothed fool.

Yang Ning didn’t change his face, and clapped his hands. He clapped his hands very loudly. The girls didn’t know why, so they all quieted down, and many girls nearby came to look at them.

There was a calm and calm smile on Yang Ning’s face, her voice was gentle, and she said leisurely: “Yes, the fool that Miss Su said is far away in the sky and in front of her eyes. I am the fool in Jinyi she said.” Shrugging his shoulders, “There are not a few people who talk about me behind my back, but those who dare to call me a fool in front of me are the first to hear it today!”
