Chapter 300 Lantern Festival
After Chen Yangzu was greatly shocked, he went home and lay down for two days. Then he ran to his father to discuss and asked to drop out of Hongwen College and study at Yingchun College.
Chen Yangzu also suggested that the Chen family reduce the rent from 50% to 30%.
Twenty percent higher than the imperial tax.
The head of the Chen family actually agreed directly without even stumbling.
Chen Yangzu then called three students who were close to him, who had sat in meditation with him last time and went to the palace together, to go to Yingchun Academy together.
These three aristocratic families had already discussed it with the head of the Chen family in advance, and naturally they agreed directly.
So the Lantern Festival had just arrived, and Chen Yangzu couldn’t wait to say goodbye to his former mentor.
The great scholar from Hongwen Academy was also very interesting. He first asked Chen Yangzu why he wanted to leave.
After listening to Chen Yangzu’s narration, the great scholar actually directly dragged his friends and went to Yingchun Academy.
Chen Yangzu himself didn't expect that when he was about to say goodbye to his mentor, he actually abducted his mentor.
Just like this, the aristocratic families in the capital were shocked!
No one expected that the Chen family would become the first to stand out.
Not only did he send his youngest son to Yingchun Academy, he also took three relatives and relatives to Yingchun Academy.
This Chen Yangzu actually coaxed two great scholars to go to Yingchun Academy...
That's all. How can the Chen family lower the rent?
Your Chen family surrendered, shall we surrender?
If everyone is down, the family’s harvest will be greatly reduced. Where will the expenses for maintaining such a big family come from? !
The major aristocratic families were MMP in their hearts, but they did not dare to openly trouble the Chen family, so they had to grit their teeth and start thinking about whether to send their heirs to Yingchun Academy.
Naturally, those with outstanding knowledge and prospects for the imperial examination cannot be sent.
Those bastards with mediocre knowledge have no problem...
As major aristocratic families have started to move,
Yingchun Academy's enrollment and scholars are probably not a problem.
After hearing Lu Daban’s description and Fu Chenan’s reasoning, Xiao Yingchun was amazed: “This is great!”
Yingchun Academy was built by Fu Chenan for Xiao Yingchun. Enrollment was not going well at first, and Xiao Yingchun was worried and came up with some ideas.
Later, many ordinary people and women entered, but there were very few real scholars.
In this way, Yingchun Academy has really become a technical school. Everyone who enters is to study technology, and there is no need to study for exams.
Who knew that after a new year, the enrollment situation would improve by leaps and bounds!
"In this way, the four treasures of the study can be arranged."
"Okay!" Fu Chenan agreed and accompanied Xiao Yingchun back to Wolong Villa.
After some searching, Xiao Yingchun found a large number of Huizhou’s four treasures of study through the Internet: Huizhou brushes, Hui ink, Chengxintang paper, and She inkstones.
Among them, paper and Hui ink as consumables are especially large.
Because it is located in Huangshan, the goods can be purchased very quickly. If you order it on the same day, it will arrive the next day.
After doing all this, the sun is setting in the west.
Fu Chenan suggested: "Tonight's Lantern Festival, do you want to go to dinner with my dad?"
Xiao Yingchun agreed.
After the meal, it was getting dark, Fu Chenan wrapped Xiao Yingchun as if something was wrong, took her hand and boarded the car leaving the palace.
On the dark long street, ropes are pulled, and the lanterns on them are high and low like fruits.
Swaying gently with the wind in the night.
Many people have already known that there will be a lantern festival tonight, and they have prepared early and walked out of their homes.
This year saw two wars: the first was a fire that destroyed the city, and the second was a change of dynasty.
Fortunately at the end of the year, Emperor Tianwu took pity on the people, reduced the tax burden, and gave the common people the opportunity to work to earn food and cotton-padded jackets...
Lantern Festival Lantern Festival?
That’s great!
The tense heartstrings of the people finally relaxed. They looked at the dark lanterns above the long street and waited quietly.
His Highness the Prince's carriage left the palace. The glazed lamps pulled at the four corners emitted a steady and bright light, making the entire carriage look particularly luxurious and eye-catching.
The carriage stopped in the square outside the palace gate, and the crowd dispersed, creating a safe distance around the carriage.
Everyone held their breath and looked at the carriage. The curtain was opened, and Xiao Yingchun was helped out of the car by Fu Chenan.
The guards on both sides of the carriage lit up the two lanterns that had been prepared long ago, illuminating the path under their feet and also illuminating a pair of beautiful people in brocade clothes.
The crowd began to kneel down, shouting chaotically: "See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
"No courtesy! Stay flat!"
"Today's Lantern Festival, there is no curfew, everyone please pay attention to safety, together Celebrate the New Year..."
"Here..."
Fu Chenan's clear and clear voice spread far away, and the people were excited and all agreed.
Seeing Xiao Yingchun standing steadily beside him with an expectant look on his face, Fu Chenan squeezed her green and white hand and gave an order.
"Light up!"
The lanterns with Xiao Yingchun as the center were lit up in turn by the fire sticks held on the bamboo poles, from near to far...
Colorful lanterns The lights spread out, and it is as beautiful as a dream.
“Wow!”
"It's so beautiful..."
"It's so beautiful..."
The street was obviously in a commotion, and there were endless compliments!
Fu Chenan and Xiao Yingchun, who are located at the main entrance, are like the center of this city of lights, spreading in all directions.
Fu Chenan pointed to the high walls of the imperial city: "Go up to see?"
Xiao Yingchun was very curious about the scene below: "Can you go down there first and then go up to see it?"
Fu Chenan: "...Okay."
My own woman , of course you have to pamper her.
Because Xiao Yingchun was pregnant, the guards brought a lot of guards today and cleaned up the three meters around them.
Xiao Yingchun was held by Fu Chenan's hand and walked forward slowly.
Under the dim light of the lanterns, the well-dressed young ladies, gentlemen and ladies took to the streets one after another, or occupied the teahouses facing the street.
The vendors and footmen were already prepared, and energetically began to sell the food, lanterns, toys, jewelry they had prepared...
Everyone was holding a lantern, looking at Look at the lanterns on the street and in other people's hands, and also look at the person holding the lantern.
Everyone has a curious and excited smile on their face, and when they look at each other, their eyes are full of smiles.
Everyone participated in the Lantern Festival in various ways.
In the teahouse facing the street on the second floor, a beautiful young lady clutched her handkerchief tightly and stared at the prince and Xiao Yingchun who were walking away side by side downstairs. Her eyes were red and tears were about to fall. She looked really pitiful.
"Miss..." the maid next to her shouted softly with some worry.
Cheng Ling'er felt aggrieved: "Tao'er, do you think I'm not pretty enough?"
The maid Tao'er curled her lips: "How is that possible? That lady is far worse than me!"< br>
"Then why does he... look down on me, but falls in love with her?"
"He's blind!" Tao'er opened her mouth.
The master and the servant thought that as long as they didn't mention their names, no one would know who they were talking about.
Little did he know that Chen Yangzu, who was also looking down from the private room next to him, had a dark face.
He knew that this woman was a concubine of the Chen Weishan family. She was quite famous and was said to be virtuous and virtuous. She was raised as a legitimate daughter in the family.
But when I saw it today, it was beautiful, but it lacked the knowledge and structure, let alone the mind and feelings for the country and the people...
She is a noble daughter from a noble family in the capital, and she is considered to be top-notch.
Chen Yangzu felt bored for a moment. He turned to look at the back figure who had walked away, his eyes full of admiration and yearning.
How did the woman who positioned Yingchun Academy as a comprehensive college think of doing this? !
