Into Xuancheng Xianxian, From Not Being A Son-In-Law

Chapter 97: There Are Monks In The Autumn Examination

"...Although it's not the first time I saw Brother He wearing a Confucian shirt, but every time I see it, I somehow feel that the Confucian shirt on Brother He seems to be cut a bit too small."

Zhugetai said with a smile.

He Xiao, who was leading the way for a few people in front, turned his head and gave him a blank look, too lazy to make useless excuses.

The tailor-made Confucian shirt naturally didn't have any inappropriate fit, but it was just teasing He Xiao's extraordinarily burly figure, which was far from the scholar's usual image of elegance and weakness.

But this is exactly what the saying goes.

Chen Xianhu explained to Xu Nian: "Dage, don't look at Brother He as a big-hearted and rough-looking man. He is a scholarly family with a serious history, and his father, He Qishi, is one of the great gentlemen in the Deer Academy."

The students of Youlu Academy are all profound and knowledgeable, and those who can become university students are even more outstanding.

Each has its own strengths and can lead the way.

It is forbidden to make noise without reason in Youlu Academy, not to mention that today is the autumn exam, He Xiao took Xu Nian and the others into the gate of the academy, then walked lightly and lowered his voice: "My father is only a little talented, it all depends on the students in Youlu Academy. You don't dislike it, it's for Mr. Da."

It can be heard that he is trying very hard to suppress his throat, so that his voice doesn't look like thunder from the ground.

In this place where Da Yan's culture is the most prosperous, Chen Xianhu, who is a member of Jiangmen Huzi, laughed and joked with the academy students who were not close to each other: "Brother He squeezed his throat like this and said some literary words, and I got goosebumps when I heard it."

He Xiao shrugged, and still said softly: "I don't want to, but it doesn't matter if no one cares about it outside, but in this academy, you have to keep it, and you can't insult the gentleness."

In addition to caring about gentleness, the reason to keep your voice down is to not affect the three hundred and twenty-three people who are writing policies and theories at their desks not far away.

Three hundred and twenty-three people came from all over the world, rich and poor, old and young, and not all of them were scholars from Dayan's background. Perhaps this policy at this time will determine whether their lives will rise or fall.

Xu Nian even saw a young monk writing a policy at his desk.

How do you know it's a monk?

Not only a ring scar bald head, but also a striking monk's robe.

Dao Yizong changed his Confucian shirts to participate in the autumn examination of Youlu Academy when he traveled all over the world, but this monk was even more outrageous. He didn’t even change his clothes, as if he was afraid that others would not know that Youlu Academy participated in the autumn examination this time. Among the 323 people, there is one from Buddhism.

It is unimaginable that Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism can be assembled in an autumn exam in the academy.

He Xiao noticed where Xu Nian's gaze fell, and said softly: "The monk comes from Songdu Temple, and his Dharma name is Yuanzhen. I heard that he is the reincarnation of an eminent Buddhist monk. He knows him from birth and is intelligent in nature."

"I don't know if the Buddhist Samsara theory is true or not, and I can't tell the truth, but this monk Yuanzhen is really outstanding, and his articles and poems are not bad."

Zhugetai gasped when he heard Songdu Temple, and couldn't help asking: "Brother He said Songdu Temple, but the Songdu Temple that I know has a certain status in Hanwu Kingdom?"

He Xiao nodded: "There is no second Songdu Temple in the world."

Although there are many Buddhist temples and Taoist temples in Dayan, Confucianism is the most prosperous, and Youlu Academy is one of the representatives.

The situation in Hanwu Kingdom is completely different. Buddhism is enshrined as the state religion, and only Buddhists are allowed to bathe in incense.

Although the status of Songdu Temple in Buddhism is far inferior to that of Youlu Academy to Confucianism, but because the contemporary abbot of Songdu Temple enjoys the title of national teacher of Hanwu Kingdom, this status is quite reasonable.

Ye Yikui looked at Monk Yuanzhen who was writing at his desk in the policy discussion field, and frowned slightly: "Da Yan is fighting with Hanwu, this is not the frontier friction before, the 700,000 troops are rushing to destroy the country, Hanwu At this juncture, what are the monks of the country trying to do by running to Youlu Academy to participate in the autumn examination?"

He Xiao shook his head: "Monk Yuanzhen is not alone."

"This little monk came with an old monk. The old monk is his master, an eminent monk who has attained the Tao. He is now a guest in the academy. As for the purpose, the two of them, the master and the apprentice, said they were just wandering around. In the world of clouds, we can understand Dharma through all living beings."

"However, the purpose of Monk Yuanzhen's participation in the autumn test is the same as yours. It is mainly to have the opportunity to enter the cultivation forest, to see if he can use stones from other mountains to cultivate jade, and to polish his own Dharma in the cultivation forest."

Xiong Yu patted his stomach, and smiled coldly: "These bald donkeys are talking better than singing, polishing Dharma? I don't think they are so simple, maybe they are eyeing some treasure in the cultivation forest of your academy It's over."

He Xiao didn't say anything.

He also felt that the motives of the two monks, one big and one young, coming to Youlu Academy at this time were somewhat impure, but Buddhist eminent monks paid homage to Youlu Academy politely, and Youlu Academy could not be turned away, otherwise, wouldn't it be a loss of the Confucian holy place if it spread? The way of hospitality.

As for why this little monk can participate in the autumn test, the reason is much simpler.

Just treat them equally.

Just as Youlu Academy did not stipulate that Taoist disciples could not participate, it also did not restrict monks. Monk Yuanzhen, like other people who participated in the autumn examination, obtained the qualification with a well-written article.

Bypassed the policy field.

He Xiao smiled and said to Xu Nian: "Is this the first time a real person has come to Youlu Academy? Just taking this opportunity, He will show you the autumn scenery of our Youlu Academy..."

Xu Nian and the others didn't take part in the autumn test, they just waited for the end of the autumn test to enter the self-cultivation forest with the outstanding performers. Before that, He Xiao, who was a student of the academy and knew Xu Nian and the others, accompanied them.

The procedure for the autumn examination of Youlu Academy is to write policy theory first and then compose poems.

Finally, choose the second among the six arts of a gentleman.

As for whether you can finally become a disciple of the academy as you wish, you don't need to look at the level of other people above the autumn exam, and you don't care how many people you can get in the ranking, it only depends on whether the results of the autumn exam have passed the threshold of Youlu Academy.

However, it is worth mentioning that the autumn examination of Youlu Academy is also a grand event for literati in addition to recruiting new students.

Those who can participate in the autumn examination are all talented, and they have to write policy theory and poems, so there are often famous lines and sentences circulated, and many scholars will pay close attention to what is going on in Youlu Academy during this day.

What's more, they gathered near Youlu Academy, waiting for some masterpieces to be released.

Hope to be able to get a taste of culture.

But no matter how close they were, they naturally didn't know it faster than Xu Nian and the others who were in the academy.

"...The first place in the autumn trial strategy theory has been judged."

"It's Monk Yuanzhen."

"The title of the policy discussion is 'What is the war', and he titled it 'Not for killing'..."

After He Xiao said this, the faces of Chen Xianhu and the others were not very good-looking.

It is not difficult to understand.

A monk from the Hanwu Kingdom came to Dayan to participate in the autumn examination of Youlu Academy, and in the end he beat the scholars of Dayan and got the first place in theory.

I can't hold back my face somewhat.
