All Heavens: Start by guarding the light at night

Chapter 51 The school starts, the virtuous prince
The academy is about to start school, and students from all over the country are coming one after another to show off their talents in order to get a chance to take the admission exam.

Wei Pingan had already started making preparations ten days ago.

The fourth princess Li Yu, who disappeared for a long time, finally reappeared.

Li Yu's complexion was obviously better, and she looked fairer than when she first came back from the grassland. Her face was slightly blushed, and her blue princess dress made her extremely noble.

Wei Pingan was slightly surprised and said to the beauty walking towards him:
"I thought that after that night, you would never see me again."

Li Yu didn't care, as if what happened these days didn't affect her mood.

"Actually, I have thought about a lot of things these past few days, and finally, I figured it out."

"What do you want to understand?"

"No matter what you do, I will stare at you, you make me feel threatened."

"Why are you staring at me? You have forgotten that in addition to being a priest in Xiling, I am also a teacher in the academy."

"I've met the emperor's uncle. Seeing how proud he is, he must have got some kind of promise from you."

"Your Highness, you think highly of me. I'm just an insignificant person in the Palace of Light."

"Insignificant? Is it because you look down on yourself too much? On that rainy night, the thrilling battle between you and Master Yan Se pushed you to a new level. Your talent is comparable to that of the sword master Liu Bai."

"Sword Saint Liu Bai? This is all nonsense made by those people. I know very well what my qualifications are."

Wei Pingan and Li Yu seemed to be the same as when they first came to Chang'an, but there was already a lot of estrangement between them.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a lot of traffic, lined up one by one, driving on the mountain road.

The moment they entered the mountain, the chatter and laughter in the carriages stopped. The students who came to take the exam felt a holy atmosphere unique to the academy, and everyone's heart was filled with respect.

This is the most holy place in the Tang Dynasty, the academy, the only unknown place in the world that is open to the outside world.

Of course, entering the academy does not mean entering the second floor.

If you want to represent the unknowable place of the academy, you must enter the second floor of the academy.

Ning Que and Sang Sang also sat in one of the carriages. Opening the windows, they looked at this paradise on earth and yearned for it in their hearts.

On both sides of the road, at intervals, there are some unknown flowers and plants, butterflies dancing, and birds chirping.

How many black and white academy buildings are arranged continuously on the grass slope, which is shocking.

After entering the academy and entering the meadow, I discovered that those pink and tender flowering trees were not one kind, but apricot blossoms and peach blossoms complementing each other.

Sang Sang leaned on Ning Que's shoulder and looked at everything in the academy. She also felt extremely excited.

The candidates of the academy come from all over the world and have undoubtedly gone through many layers of selection. Of course, most of them participated in this examination relying on their family connections and the privileges of powerful families.

Ning Que didn't care about anything else, he just wanted to be admitted to the academy as soon as possible.

Every year, the academy only accepts [-] students, and the number of students who have come to participate along the way has exceeded [-], and this number is still increasing.

Immediately afterwards, the Royal Forest Army, guards of honor, and officials from various ministries arrived.

There were also some spectators who paid for tickets, the palace guards, His Royal Highness, the Empress, and even the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty also arrived.

Near a flower bed, Wei Pingan and Li Yu stood side by side.

One of them was wearing the clothes of an academy teacher, the other was wearing a blue princess dress, and were followed by several palace maids.

The handsome and beautiful appearance attracted countless people to look at the two of them.

On the high platform, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, his eyes also fell on Wei Ping'an next to Li Yu.

Wei Pingan looked towards the emperor and bowed slightly to show respect.

"Humph."

Prince Tang snorted coldly and turned his attention to the students at the foot of the mountain.

Then came the Queen, who also looked at Wei Pingan.

On that rainy night at the Spring Breeze Pavilion, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty suffered for the first time in Chang'an City.

The reason for setting up such a big battle is of course that these students who enter the academy will be the pillars of their Tang Dynasty in the future.

Even those who did not pass the exam can still hang out in the officialdom.

These people are the future of the Tang Dynasty, and as His Majesty the Emperor, he should be there.

After all, the current Emperor is the apparent master of the Tang Dynasty.

If possible, His Majesty the Emperor is more willing to use his own method to select talents.

The bell in the back mountain rang, which was the first time for the entrance exam.

Hundreds of students, under the command of the teacher, walked through the main building of the academy and walked towards the inner courtyard.

At this time, the emperor smiled very kindly, as if he was pleased that Datang had so many talents.

"Master, are you still unwilling to come?"

The officials on the side seemed panicked, and said hastily: "The dean said that the entrance examination of the academy is for His Majesty and to recruit talents for the empire, so he...doesn't need to come forward, he's already packing his luggage, and he's leaving in two days. "

The emperor's face was full of regret, as if he had remembered something, he patted the stone railing and sighed, muttering something in his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor looked back at the back of the academy, and there was a mountain looming in the clouds and mists. He paid a slight salute to show his respect to the master.

On the mountain road, among the crowd, Ning Que stared at a man on the high platform.

The man was wearing a large and long crimson robe, embroidered with moiré patterns, with a handsome face, eyes like swords, and an amiable, mature man in his 40s, but extremely masculine charm.

Li Peiyan, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, was Ning Que's great enemy and had a reputation as a virtuous man.

At the same time, he and Xiahou were the chief culprits in the massacres of General Xuanwei's Mansion and Zeng Mansion in the first year of Tianqi.

As for the specific reason, in the court, it is undoubtedly a struggle for power and profit.

General Xuanwei and Scholar Zeng came into contact with the interests of the prince and Xiahou.

Few people say what the truth is, and few people in the Tang Dynasty mention that matter.

Practitioners who know about it all regard this matter as taboo.

For Ning Que now, Li Peiyan was undoubtedly on his must-kill list.

Li Peiyan stood on the high platform, smiling warmly, like a spring breeze shining on the hearts of the students.

"You young people are all heroes in the world. Today, you must use all your abilities to face this academy entrance exam. But remember not to be too nervous. You must study hard when you enter the academy. When you learn in the future, you will be useful. My Tang Empire has These countless positions are waiting, waiting for the princes to add glory to the empire."

Immediately afterwards, the prince mobilized in another direction. The people here were not natives of Datang, and they all wore different clothes.

An examinee from Yan State summoned up his courage and asked some questions.

The virtuous king answered them one by one without any airs, and even made a few jokes, which made the students laugh out loud.

The tense atmosphere of the exam was easily resolved by Li Peiyan.

The students also started to ask questions, and Li Peiyan selected some of them to chat with them.

In the crowd, everyone praises this prince, he is compassionate to the people, and he is virtuous and holy.
