Vol 3 Chapter 312: Jinghua Book Club

Qi Ning left the lobby and went out of Wuxiang Hou Mansion. He saw that Su Zixuan was sobbing under the high wall, but Jiang Suiyun was softly comforting, and even took a Jinpa to Su Zixuan.
Someone had already brought Qi Ning's horse over, and Qi Ning ignored the man and the woman. He turned the horse and left, but listened to Jiang Suiyun's voice: "Hou Ye, please stay!"
Qi Ning looked back, and saw Jiang Suiyun looking at himself, smiled faintly, and asked, "What advice?"
Jiang Suiyun said: "Hou Ye doesn't know but can you remember the bet between us?"
"Gamble?" Qi Ning said with a smile: "Are you talking about preparing to gamble for Benhou's boots?"
Jiang Suiyun smiled indifferently and said, "Who wins and loses is not yet known, but since the contract was made on that day, I still hope that Hou Ye can fulfill the promise." After a pause, his eyes were sharp: "If I lose to Hou Ye, Of course, keeping promises, but if Hou Ye loses, he hopes that Hou Ye will not lose faith. "
Qi Ning said with a smile: "Ben Hou may not remember anything else, but I bet with you, but I remember it clearly." Without further ado, he flicked the horse reins and flew away.
Su Zixuan looked at Qi Ning's figure away, and his eyes were full of hate. Jiang Suiyun looked over and sneered: "Miss. Don't worry, when the 15th day of the first lunar month, we will be under the eyes of countless scholars in many colleges, Let him kneel in public to wipe my boots, Miss Yixue hates today. "
"Master Jiang, you ... you are so good!" Su Zixuan whirled in tears.
Qi Ning returned to Hou Mansion and immediately asked for Xiaoyao. He learned that Gu Qinghan had arranged Xiaoyao's mother and daughter in a courtyard of Hou Mansion. She hurried past and hadn't entered the door yet. She met Gu Qinghan and came out.
Seeing Qi Ning, Gu Qinghan immediately asked, "Are you planning to live in the house with their mother and daughter?"
Qi Ning introduced the situation at the moment, Gu Qinghan Xiu Mei tightened his eyes, sneered: "I know Su Zhen's inferior character, but I can't think of it as being so indifferent. I've heard about this before, and I said it like this , That girl named Xiaoyao is Su Zhen's daughter? "
Qi Ning nodded and said: "Xiao Yao was studying in the Academy. Fortunately, I went to the Academy today and found that she was not in the Academy. Otherwise, the mother and daughter were just afraid of going to the streets."
Gu Qinghan nodded slightly and looked back into the courtyard before lowering his voice and said, "How are you going to arrange the rows next?"
"I didn't think about it." Qi Ning said: "Can San Niang have a way?"
Gu Qinghan thought for a while, and then said: "If you are someone else, even if you enter the Hou Mansion, it will be fine, but there are only two more pairs of chopsticks, but ...!" After a pause, I said: "He is after all Su Zhen's daughter doesn't mean that Su Zhen's daughter is not good, but many people know the things about Su Zhen. If someone knows that Su Zhen's daughter was taken to Hou by you, I'm afraid someone will say something unclean. The gossip hurts Xiaoyao ’s reputation. "
Qi Ning nodded and said: "San Niang's consideration is that, in fact, Xiaoyao's character, even if she is allowed to live in Hou Palace, she will not agree." Take the deed from her arms, "they lived before In that house, the deed of ownership is already in my hands, and I have made it easy to clean up, but ...! "
"Are you worried that Su Zixuan would send someone to trouble again?"
Qi Ning nodded and said, "Although they are sisters, their temperaments are far from each other. Su Zixuan is spoiled and arrogant, and she hates me for her bones. Maybe she will send someone to harass. The rascals are everywhere, as long as she spends money, Xiaoyao. Mother and daughter are rarely peaceful. "
Gu Qinghan thought for a while before saying: "It is not possible, just buy a small house nearby and settle down their mother and daughter first. I also take care of it from time to time, neither let the mother and daughter of Xiaoyao be bullied. Let outsiders not gossip. "
Qi Ning smiled and said: "I knew that San Niang must have a way, and San Niang was there, no matter what difficult things I encountered, they would be solved."
"Don't be a hippie smile." Gu Qinghan glared at Qi Ning. "It's always wrong for you to go to Wuxiang Houfu to make trouble today. You help Xiaoyao, naturally there is nothing wrong with it, but this is after all the family's family affair, you run What ’s the point of going to Wuxiang Houfu for a big fight? "
Qi Ning said with a sneer: "Su Zhen is so ignorant, shouldn't someone like him scold?"
"Okay." Gu Qinghan didn't argue, "You go to see them first, I'll let people see what places can be bought nearby, first place their mother and daughter, then talk." .
Qi Ning entered the courtyard and arrived at the house. When the door was concealed, he tapped the door and heard Xiaoyao's voice: "Come in."
When Qi Ning entered the room, Xiao Yao was sitting by the bed, saw Qi Ning, got up quickly, waved his hand, and walked gently, only to see that the mother Yao had already laid down and slept.
The room is clean and simple, the bedding on the bed is brand new, and tableware is also placed on the table in the room. Qi Ning feels warm, knowing that these are arranged by Gu Qinghan.
"Hou Ye, more ... thank you!" Xiaoyao brought a hint of shyness: "This disturbs your Hou Mansion, it's ..."
Qi Ning shook his head and said: "You said that you would see it. Xiaoyao, how is your mother now?"
"She ate some porridge, and now she has fallen asleep." Xiaoyao looked at the mother who had fallen asleep, and said quietly: "I haven't slept well in these days. I can finally take a rest today."
"You also need to take a break." Qi Ning said: "Tomorrow you will go to the college as usual."
Xiaoyao frowned slightly and pondered for a moment before saying: "Hou Ye, I ... I don't want to go to the college."
"Why are you still so stubborn." Qi Ning sat down on the chair. "Xiaoyao, you sit down and talk."
Xiaoyao hesitated and finally sat down. Qi Ning said: "I know you like reading very much. I ask you. Mr. Zhuo founded Qionglin Academy and was exhausted for her daughter's family to read. Do you think it is easy?"
Xiaoyao stunned, then shook his head gently.
"Yes, Mr. Zhuo gave up the high official Houlu and devotes himself to maintaining Qionglin Academy. That's because he has ideals in his heart, and he has been insisting on the ideals." Isn't it a pity? Isn't it strong enough? "After a pause, I said:" I know you are worried about your mother. You don't have to worry about this. I will send someone to take care of me. "
Xiaoyao said: "But ... Houye, I know you are a good person, but we can't live here for a long time."
"I understand what you mean." Qi Ning nodded. "I have sent people to look for a house nearby. As long as you find a suitable house, you will move in. The previous house, you don't want to live, I don't worry. Let you continue to live there. "
Xiaoyao anxiously said: "This ... this is not enough, how can you find us a house?"
"I am your sir, you are my student, students have difficulties, of course, as a sir, you must help without help." Qi Ning said: "Xiaoyao, you are a smart girl, you should know that your mother is most important now It is to adjust the body and gradually recover. If there is no peaceful environment, I am only worried that her condition will become more and more serious. "
"I ...!" Xiao Yao glanced at her mother, biting her red lips, not knowing what to say.
"Listen to me first, and tomorrow you will go to the academy as usual." Qi Ning smiled: "Do you know what Mr. Zhuo is most worried about now?"
Xiaoyao's eyes widened, his watery eyes questioned.
"No one succeeds." Qi Ning sighed: "Mr. Zhuo is very old. Qionglin Academy is his life's hard work, but he has been worried. Will he continue to do so after 100 years? It is said that there are many people who want to abolish Qionglin Academy under the banner of tyranny. Even if Qionglin Academy is retained, who can continue teaching? "
Xiaoyao's eyebrows were rough, and his expression was a little sad.
"So Mr. Zhuo pind all his hopes on you." Qi Ning said: "Mr. Zhuo hopes that after his hundred years, the female students in your academy will be able to learn something and stay in the academy to continue to teach book and art."
"Ah?" Xiao Yao said in surprise: "Mr. Zhuo thinks so?"
Qi Ning nodded and said: "Yes, so the continuation of Qionglin Academy will require your efforts. If one day you can teach and educate in the Academy, that is what Mr. Zhuo wants to see the most."
"How do I succeed?" Xiao Yao busy said: "I ...!"
"If you don't pursue it, how do you know it won't work?" Qi Ning said with a smile: "Maybe years later, Qionglin Academy really has a female lady, and you are one of them."
Xiaoyao's cheeks were reddish, and he waved: "That ... that's impossible ...!"
Qi Ning haha ​​laughed ~ EbookFREE.me ~ said: "So you still have to go to the academy tomorrow, I will arrange other things." What I thought, asked: "Yes, on the fifteenth of the first month, is the academy going to compete?"
Xiaoyao immediately said: "There were eight major academies in Beijing, and the rules were formed many years ago. Every year on the fifteenth of the first month, the eight major academies would gather together. The talents can be selected to enter the DPRK as officials, so the eight colleges have always attached great importance to the Jinghua Book Club. "
"Jinghua Book Club?" Qi Ning nodded slightly: "Qionglin Academy is also one of the eight major academies?"
Xiaoyao shook his head and said: "No, the Eighth Academy does not include Qionglin Academy. Five years ago, Emperor Xianlin made a special order, so Qionglin Academy attended the Jinghua Book Club together. Although many people opposed it, there was a decree. Therefore, Qionglin Academy started to enter the book club that year. Nowadays, Jinghua Book Club is the competition of the nine major academies. "
"Has Qionglin Academy ever won the first place?"
Xiaoyao shook his head and said: "There are a lot of powerful people hiding in the Eight Great Colleges, and ... and the Confucianists who have been assessed have always been biased against Qionglin Academy. Even if we win, they will not let us win." Then he smiled and said: "Mr. Zhuo does not care to win the first, just let us meet the world."
Qi Ning smiled and said: "So it turns out, if you say that, I'm really looking forward to this Jinghua Book!"
