After lunch, Lin Jue took Lin Hu out to Songshan Academy, which is located on Wansong Ridge in the south of Hangzhou. He wasn't sure if he would be accepted by Fang Dunru, but he had to give it a try. In his previous life, he finally entered Songshan Academy by chance, and after receiving Fang Dunru's guidance, he went to high school in one fell swoop. It's just a pity that it came too late. The reason why Lin Jue wanted to re-enter Fang Dunru's sect was not really to be admitted to the imperial examination, but because of the fate of the previous life.

Although the time spent with Fang Dunru in that life was very short, he was impressed by Fang Dunru's knowledge and insight. In Lin Jue's view, Fang Dunru is a truly talented person. And if you want to make achievements in this life, you will definitely benefit yourself a lot if you get involved with Fang Dunru as soon as possible. But on the more important side, when he was under Fang Dunru in his last life, Lin Jue experienced the warmth of home. Fang Dunru and Mrs. Fang were very good to Lin Jue, and made Lin Jue feel the feeling of warm family affection, which was a rare and beautiful memory in the dark life of the previous life, which was what Lin Jue valued the most. That's why Lin Jue decided to do so.

After leaving the Lin Mansion, Lin Jue and Lin Hu walked all the way south along Xihe Street. The West River is one of the three inland rivers in Hangzhou along with the canal. With these three inland rivers, the waterway traffic in Hangzhou can extend in all directions. Because there are several wharves along the rivers in the city, boats can go directly to various locations on several main streets through the canal, which greatly facilitates the flow of goods in Hangzhou.

This is also the reason why Hangzhou City has become the largest city in the southeast. The waterway transportation extending in all directions was a unique and huge advantage in this year, and the goods from all over the southeast were collected and distributed here, and through the waterway through the canal to the distant Great Zhou Dynasty.

Songshan Academy is not in the city, but on Wansong Ridge outside the Fengshan Gate in the southern city. It is also a place of great scenery in the city of Hangzhou. Wan Songling horseback riding is a fashion for the literati and celebrities in Hangzhou. There are as many as seven or eight academies on Xiaoxiao Wansongling, and it is the peak of humanities and academics.

Walking along the street for several miles, the Fengshan Gate Tower is in sight. At this time, Lin Jue's attention was not in the direction of the city tower, but behind him.

Since listening to what Lu Wu said yesterday, Lin Jue had a heart as soon as he went out today. Not long after going out, Lin Jue spotted two sneaky people following the street. Although Lin Jue didn't know who they were, it was obvious that it must be the little tail sent by Huang Changqing.

Lin Jue sneered, he suddenly understood the reason behind Huang Changqing's performance in the morning. Huang Changqing could only hope that he would commit a crime in the market outside the Lin Mansion if he wanted to grasp his own handle, which may be the reason why he did not obstruct but expressed his approval.

Lin Jue decided to give the two stalking guys some hardship, but he couldn't do it himself. After walking a few steps, Lin Jue stood still beside a group of coolie idlers standing on the street corner. Yu Guang glanced behind, and dozens of steps away, two people who were watching also stopped pretending to look at the street stalls.

Seven or eight idlers stood with their bellies open and spoke in the shade of a tree on the corner of the street. One of them was foaming at the mouth of the froth. The rest of the men rubbed the mud balls on their bodies and listened attentively. These people are very common on the streets of Hangzhou, they are all coolie sellers, standing on street corners and waiting for odd jobs. Once someone wants to move goods and work as coolies, they will come to them on the street corner, negotiate the price, and the gang will go to work to earn some money to support their wives and children.

A group of people saw a young man with a handsome face standing in front of him with a teenage scholar, and knew that there was a customer. Several men said in a loud voice: "This little official, but looking for someone to work?" ”

Lin Jue nodded and smiled: "Exactly." ”

"What's that? Unloading or loading? How many pounds of goods? The men asked.

"No unloading, no loading." Lin Jue took out a piece of silver from his arms and said, "Do you see the two short-clothed men next to the stall behind?" They are servants of my house. I was going out to play, and they were following me at the behest of my parents to discipline me, and I couldn't have fun. I'd like to ask you to help stop them. It's better to beat them up. And for such a small thing, this ingot of silver will be divided among you. ”

All the men looked at each other, this was the first time that such work had been received. I am afraid that there are as many as three taels of silver ingots in the hands of petty officials. Seven or eight people could each receive three or four pieces of silver, which was not a small amount. Ordinary hard work in a day is only two pieces of silver. But the demand for beating people on the street was a little weird, and everyone muttered in their hearts.

"We don't do anything about beating people. We are workers, not street ruffians. It is not cost-effective to go to the government and take the board. One man shook his head, and the others nodded.

Lin Jue smiled: "You don't dare to earn such a good amount of silver, you really deserve to be poor." Well, I'll teach you a trick, and in a moment they'll come and one of you will pretend to be knocked down by them. Isn't that a reasonable reason to beat them up? And these two are my servants, I just don't want my father and mother to know about it, otherwise I can beat them myself. That's it, you don't want to earn this money, I'll go to someone else. Xiaohu, there is a group of men on the street corner in front, they must be a kind. Let's go to them. ”

Lin Hu nodded and said, "What Childe said is that those people look better than these people." Let's go find them. ”

Several men were red-faced, and they were scolded by this little official and the child in front of him, which was really hurtful. And seeing that the silver was about to fly away, I was really unwilling.

"Ahhei, this may be done. The petty officials are right, we stopped on the road, they hit us, and it is not unreasonable for us to beat people. ”

"But...... Isn't this a slander? I'm afraid it's not good, our brothers are all good people who abide by the law. ”

"Lao Kang, I haven't made any money until now, and my wife will be noisy when I go home, and I can't control it a lot. What this petty official said was that if you don't earn money, you should be poor. If you don't do it, I'll do it, I'll fight two, and I'll get the money alone. ”

"That's not it, brother? What are the difficulties of saying good? It's done, and it's not a big deal. ”

A group of people immediately reached a consensus in a few words.

Lin Jue smiled: "Okay, even if you still have some courage." I don't want you to beat them like that. Just hit the nose and swollen face. Then we will go first, and the rest will be yours. ”

Lin Jue threw the silver into the hands of one of the men, and several men sighed, spitting and foaming at the palm of their hands and rubbing and rubbing it.

Lin Jue and Lin Hu walked quickly in the direction of the Fengshan Gate Tower, and in the rear, the two servants of the Lin Mansion who were following saw this, hurriedly lost the goods in their hands and quickly followed. The two servants patronized to see the figures of Lin Jue and Lin Hu in the crowd in front of them, and they didn't notice that a figure in the oblique thorn collided with them. Before I could figure out what was going on, I saw a man lying on the ground groaning.

The two guys didn't care about this, and walked straight forward, and six or seven men surrounded them, shouting nonsense: "Do you still want to leave after hitting someone?" Why? ”

"Come on, do you touch the porcelain? Get out of the way, or I'll look good. A slave didn't pay attention to this group of men at all, and shouted.

Several big men looked at each other and shouted almost at the same time, "Fuck him." It's still so horizontal when you hit someone, and there's no royal law. ”

All the men swung their fists, and for a while, the ping-pong fists and feet were added to the chickens, flying dogs, jumping and dusty. Although the two servants have some skills, they can't stand the number of people on the other side. Moreover, these coolies have a lot of strength, and they are not light on their fists and feet. After three blows and two blows, he was knocked to the ground, punched and kicked, and wailed and forged.

The coolies did not dare to be heavy-handed, and after punching and kicking, the two of them had blue noses and swollen faces, and then dispersed before the street catchers arrived. The remaining two servants were lying on the street rolling and moaning, not knowing what evil they had hit today.

When there was a commotion in the rear, Lin Jue took Lin Hu to speed up and go out of the city through the Fengshan Gate.

……

Songshan Academy is located on the eastern slope of Wansongling. Lin Jue took Lin Hu to walk the mountain road for half an hour, and then saw the gate of the academy in the shade of green pines.

A tall stone memorial arch is on top of dozens of stone steps, and the memorial arch is engraved with the four big characters of 'high mountain Yangzhi', and the momentum is really extraordinary. Passing through the archway, you will go around a huge wall engraved with the teachings of ancient sages, and in front of you is a small flat land. Surrounded by greenery, a house sits on the side of a cliff on the left. There is also a stone staircase that leads to a denser part of the pine and bamboo.

Lin Jue was familiar with all this. In my previous life, I read a book here for a year, so I am naturally familiar with the road. He knew that the building in front of him was the gatehouse at the entrance of the academy. There are academy handymen on duty here, and outsiders are forbidden to enter and leave at will.

Lin Jue and Xiaohu had just emerged from behind the wall, and someone poked their heads out of the stone gatehouse.

"What? This is where the academy is located, and people who are not from the academy are not allowed to trespass. A short-clad porter shouted.

Lin Jue stepped forward and saluted: "I am a student who has come to study, and I want to see Fang Dunru and Fang Daru." Please also be accommodating. ”

The concierge looked Lin Jue up and down, and when he saw that Lin Jue was gentle and elegant, he also believed it. He has seen this kind of thing a lot, and it is not uncommon for students to come to the academy often with admiration.

"That's right. However, the college is in summer in June and July. You didn't come at the right time. ”

Lin Jue was stunned, and secretly scolded himself for being dizzy, and actually forgot that Songshan Academy had two months off in summer when it was very hot in June and July every year, and two months off in winter when it was cold. It's mid-to-late June, and it's the time for Matsuyama Academy's summer break.

But after thinking about it, what he wanted to see was Fang Dunru, as long as he was there. Although it is a summer break, in fact, there are still many students in the academy who do not want to leave, so they live in the academy to study.

"It's okay to take a summer break, I'm mainly here to visit Fang Shanchang. But I don't know if he is in the academy. ”

"Yes, but the mountain chief has explained, and there are no outsiders. I can't let you in. ”

"I'm an acquaintance of his, how can you stop me from entering?" Lin Jue made a killer move.

"Acquaintances? You and Fang Shanchang? The porter clearly didn't believe it.

"Of course, you can't lie to you? I came to see him some time ago, and it wasn't you who was the doorman at that time. I'll tell you just one thing, and you'll know I'm not a liar. Is Fang Shanchang's house under the small cliff next to the West Bamboo Forest? The one with three small huts and a small courtyard with a fence in front and back? Also, there's a small pond under the cliff in the afternoon? My wife planted some lotus flowers in it, and there were a lot of big herring in it? ”

The porter's eyes widened and he nodded repeatedly, "Really, you've really come in." ”

Lin smiled meaningfully: "That's not it, I said I didn't lie to you." Fang Shan likes to play with flowers and plants, and there are a lot of flowers and trees planted in the yard and the house, right? Not...... There is a plum tree in the southwest corner of the back garden, isn't it? ”

The porter had no doubts, and these details were clearly stated, which showed that the young man in front of him should be really familiar with the mountain chief. Otherwise, even the preferences of the mountain chief can be clearly stated, and the terrain is not wrong at all, so it will not make sense.

"Even so, I can't stop it, so I'll invite my son in." The porter finally said.

Lin Jue thanked him and led Lin Hu back along the stone steps. Lin Hu asked in a low voice beside him, "Uncle, have you been here?" How do you know so much? ”

"I'm blinded." Lin Jue said with a smile.

"Liar, can this also be fooled? That's bizarre. Of course Lin Hu didn't believe it.

Lin Jue smiled silently, and said in his heart: The memory of the previous life here should be ten years after the start of this time. In the past ten years, the pattern here has remained the same, and fortunately, it was able to completely match the number just now. Just now, I was worried that the pattern at this time would be different from ten years from now.
