44 Chapter 44: escape (1)

The two brothers ran out of the quasi-Saint Academy, but they didn’t dare to take the main road. They turned into the forest from a small path beside the courtyard and ran for a long time before stopping.

Xu Qi ‘an’s breathing was steady, while Xu niannian was holding a pine tree, panting. Because of the strenuous exercise, his white face was flushed.

“What do we do now?” Xu Qi ‘an planned to ask his “methodical” little brother, and probed, ”

“Did I just solve a difficult problem for the Academy?”

He didn’t expect that his words would cause such a terrible phenomenon, and he didn’t know what the aftermath would be, so he followed Xu Erlang and escaped.

Xu niannian panted and tried to calm his heartbeat. He snorted arrogantly.”At most, it’ll be a difficult problem for two hundred years.”

Xu Qi ‘an took off the water bag and handed it over.

Xu Erlang took a sip and continued, ” if it was me who had just entered the Academy, I would suggest that you stay where you are and wait to receive the worship and gratitude of the Academy’s teachers and students.

“But now, I just want to take you away from here.” He threw the water bag back to his cousin and waited for a moment. He saw that his cousin’s expression was normal and there was no doubt.

There was some disappointment and some admiration.

He admired him because his cousin was very smart, unlike his father, who was a crude person. This made the proud Xu niannian feel gratified.

He was disappointed that he couldn’t show off in front of his cousin and create a sense of superiority in terms of intelligence.

That’s right, even if his cousin had composed many amazing poems, even if his cousin had just written such a sentence on the stone tablet that could split the mountains and split the earth … Xu niannian still felt that his IQ was higher.

Without this mentality, I can’t do “if the heavens don’t give birth to me, I’ll wish for a New Year, and I’ll pray for eternity like a long night.”

The two brothers quickly shuttled through the forest and sneaked in the direction of the stable.

Leaving without saying goodbye was the best choice at this moment.

If Xu Qi ‘an remained at the scene, he might be welcomed by the Yun Lu Academy’s deep gratitude and even be revered as a great scholar … Although it was unlikely.

This was a good thing.

The bad side was also very obvious. Yun Lu Academy and the Directorate were fighting for orthodoxy. While Xu Qi ‘an accepted the gratitude of Yun Lu Academy, he would definitely attract the hostility of the scholars from the Directorate.

All the Zhu Zigui in the court were directorates.

A single case of monetary tax could cause endless trouble, and this was even more dangerous and troublesome than a hundred cases of monetary tax.

‘Reminiscing about the past and my thoughts are in line …’ Xu Qi ‘an chuckled,”old times, you’re a real dog.”

Very good. Erlang was not a pedantic scholar. Perhaps this was because he was well-versed in military tactics.

“Rough iron.” Xu niannian retorted and continued, ” as long as we leave, I believe the Academy will not spread the news and will keep it a secret for us.

He didn’t speak anymore. As he hurried on, he was deep in thought, appearing to be reticent.

……

On the field outside the saint’s Academy.

The grey-haired Zhao Shou, who was dressed in linen clothes, suddenly made an unexpected move. He turned around and looked behind the Academy.

A few seconds later, the three great Confucians did the same thing and looked into the distance with grave expressions.

The Grand Princess was puzzled and subconsciously followed their gaze. The sky was clear and there was nothing there.

However, in the next moment, a stream of clear air that was visible to the naked eye soared into the sky and pierced through the clouds. The thick and heavy white clouds floating on Mount Qingyun dispersed in front of everyone’s eyes.

Zhao Shou was the first to disappear. The three great Confucians then used their magical ability to move three feet behind the Academy.

The eldest princess’s willowy brows furrowed slightly. She lifted the hem of her dress and quickly followed behind without losing her bearing.

She was tall and curvaceous, and her charm when she walked was indescribable.

……

In the quasi-Saint Academy, the candle stand was tilted, and the wax was flowing.

In the empty Hall, the air rippled like a spring breeze, highlighting Zhao Shou’s figure. He quickly scanned every corner of the hall and then focused on the cracked inscription of the Cheng clan’s quasi-Saint.

‘This …’ The Dean’s pupils were like ancient wells, and wild waves were set off in them. At the same time, he quickly analyzed the reason for the soaring clear air.

The monolith inscriptions that suppressed the Academy shattered, and the noble spirit within Yun Lu Academy broke free from its restraints. It overflowed and caused the scene just now.

The problem was, how could the stele of the Cheng clan’s quasi-Saint crack for no reason?

Soon, school head Zhao understood. His gaze was attracted by the stone tablet that he had erected in the hall. As he looked at the contents of the stone tablet, he felt as if the entire world was fading and disappearing. Only that line of ugly words was deeply imprinted in his eyes.

It was imprinted in his heart.

He became the only one in the world.

The figures of the three great Confucians appeared in the spring breeze-like air. They subconsciously scanned the entire Hall.

When he saw the broken Cheng clan’s quasi-Saint stone tablet, his pupils shrank unconsciously.

Why did the stone tablet crack for no reason … No, this was a good thing. It meant that the seal that suppressed Yun Lu Academy’s luck had started to waver … Li Mubai thought to himself. Suddenly, he realized that there was something wrong with the director’s condition.

It was a state of being immersed in one’s own world, as if one had lost their soul.

The stone tablet had actually cracked. In an era where there were no quasi-Saints, there was actually someone who could move the Cheng clan’s stone tablet … Zhang Shen and Chen Tai looked at each other and saw shock and doubt in each other’s eyes.

Immediately after, they, like li Mubai, noticed director Zhao’s abnormality.

for the sake of Heaven and earth, for the sake of the people, for the sake of inheriting the Supreme Arts, for the sake of setting the balance for all generations … Zhang Shen muttered.

He was completely shocked by the spirit, spirit, and ambition contained in these words. Goosebumps rose all over his body, and the blood in his chest seemed to be boiling.

“This is what a scholar should really do.” Chen Tai’s lips trembled. as an official, I should serve the people, the country, and the people of the world. I should not serve a single family or a few people.

This great scholar, who was known for his talent in governing the country, was trembling uncontrollably at this moment. His voice was hoarse.”Enlightenment, enlightenment …”

Li Mubai took in a deep breath and calmed his emotions.”Who wrote this?”

The three of them looked at director Zhao Shou at the same time. The director had been in seclusion for more than ten years and had worked hard to overthrow the Cheng family’s philosophy. If there was anyone in the world who could create a new academic school, it would be him.

However, the Dean was with them just now, and his attitude had explained everything.

Silence was the only response they got. After a long time, Zhao Shou said in a low voice, “”You guys go out first. If you have anything to say, we can discuss it later.”

“A gentleman’s silence,” he continued.

The three great Confucians bowed and left side by side.

The door of the hall was closed, and it was quiet all around. Zhao Shou stood in front of the stele in silence. Behind him was a hollow door and window, allowing the sunlight to enter.

After a long time, he straightened his clothes and saluted the disciple in front of the stele, “”When you hear the Dao in the morning, you can die in the evening.”

…..

The eldest Princess lifted the hem of her dress and finally arrived outside the quasi-Saint Academy. However, she discovered that the area within 100 feet of the Academy was covered by an air shield that was like an upside-down bowl, isolating it from the outside world.

She was not in a hurry. She stood quietly at the bottom of the steps outside the academy, like a flower in full bloom.

After a while, the three great Confucians came out side by side. Their faces were solemn, but it was impossible to tell if they were good or bad.

“Three Sirs, may I know what it is?” The Royal Princess looked at the Academy.

“Princess, please don’t ask.” Chen Tai bowed. we can’t figure out anything about this matter for the time being.

The eldest Princess smiled, her face that could not hide her nobility was as calm as ever.

After bidding farewell to the three great Confucians, she walked alone in the direction of the pavilion. Her dress fluttered in the mountain wind, as if she was a fairy from the mountains, a fairy who had come down to the mortal world to play.

The two rows of soldiers were still standing guard outside the pavilion like silent statues.

This group of twenty-four golden guards was her personal guard, and there was another group of seven night watchmen at the foot of the mountain.

However, the Academy loathed Wei Yuan and did not allow anyone to go up the mountain during the night Watch.

The eldest Princess went down the mountain with her guards and found the seven night watchmen waiting by the side of the official road. Her voice was clear and beautiful. Yun Lu Academy’s aura is soaring to the heavens. The quasi-Saint Academy has been sealed. Report this matter to Duke Wei and ask him to keep a close eye on the Academy and investigate this matter.

“Yes!” The night watchman cupped his fists.

The eldest Princess continued,”help me investigate a person, The Fast Runner of the Changle County government, Xu Qi ‘an.”

“Yes, sir.”
