Chapter 659: Once you send someone away, they won’t come back (3)
On the other side, Liang Huaixin asked around and finally found his way to the gate of Yuening Academy.
I saw the vermilion gate was open, with two majestic stone lions standing beside the gate. And unlike the academy in Anyang City, the gate here was guarded by government soldiers.
After being stunned for a moment, Liang Huaixin's attention was immediately attracted by two lists posted outside the college.
The list was hung high up, densely filled with names and related information.
Liang Huaixin took a closer look and for a moment his eyes widened in shock.
It turns out that even though he came from a small place like Anyang City.
But as a scholar, he naturally knew something about some of the world-famous talents.
At this moment, there are many well-known names listed on the list. They are all leaders in the literary world and talented people.
When he looked at another list with the Master's name on it, Liang Huaixin was filled with amazement.
Because many of the teachers listed above are all famous and well-educated scholars, and the dean is an even more famous scholar.
After seeing this with his own eyes, Liang Huaixin finally understood.
A feeling of shame slowly came over me.
Only now did Liang Huaixin realize how childish and ridiculous the words he had just said in Yongfu Ji were.
Just as he was immersed in self-reflection, he suddenly heard a clear shout: "Brother, please make way!"
Liang Huaixin looked over when he heard the voice and saw a well-mannered young man dressed in student clothes standing beside him.
This person spoke fluent standard Mandarin and was very polite and courteous.
"Sorry!" Liang Huaixin came back to his senses instantly, with a hint of apology on his face.
He also knew that it was inappropriate for him to block the way here, so he quickly stepped aside a few steps to make way for the newcomers.
Upon seeing this, the young student nodded slightly and said nothing more.
He walked quickly to the list and looked at it carefully.
After watching for a while, the man turned to his friend and said, "I heard that the Xiao family member will not participate in the next assessment. Is this true or not?"
After hearing this, his friend said nonchalantly, "What does it matter if he takes the exam or not? With his talent, it's possible for him to be at the top of the list all year round, but no matter how great Yuening Academy is, it's just an academy after all."
Liang Huaixin listened to these words and wanted to interject a few words, but he didn't know where to start.
"Everything is determined by fate. We have no control over it." The student who had just spoken to Liang Huaixin sighed, "It would be great if I could have his talent and knowledge!"
"What are you thinking! Even if I could give it to you, would you be able to afford it?" His friend laughed at the other person's wishful thinking, "Your last name is Xiao!"
"I don't know who you two are talking about!" Liang Huaixin finally couldn't help but go over and strike up a conversation.
The two men looked Liang Huaixin up and down, and one of them said, "It seems that you are not a local, even Young Master Xiao doesn't know you."
Liang Huaixin scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
Another person explained: "The young master Xiao we are talking about is the eldest son of the Xiao family in the capital, named Xiao Chenliang. This person is extraordinary in literary talent. He learned to read at the age of three, wrote poems at the age of five, and his articles were spread all over the capital at the age of eight.
If he participated in the quarterly assessment of Yuening Academy, he would definitely come out on top."
Hearing Xiao Chenliang's name, Liang Huaixin finally knew who the other party was talking about. He had always thought that such a person should be in an academy in the capital, but he didn't expect that the other party was actually studying in Yuening Academy.
"It's such a blessing to be a classmate with Master Xiao!" Liang Huaixin's face was full of anticipation. "Just now, you two said that Master Xiao will not participate in the assessment this time. I wonder why."
After listening to Liang Huaixin's long speech, both of them frowned at the same time.
Liang Huaixin thought he had said something wrong, so he bowed to them and said sincerely, "I am Liang Huaixin, a student who has just arrived. If I have been rude, please forgive me."
Anyang City is hundreds of miles away from Yuening City, so the accents of the two places are naturally different, and the colleges or private schools in Anyang City are naturally incomparable in promoting Mandarin.
At the beginning, the short sentences were not obvious, but now Liang Huaixin spoke more, and when he introduced his name later, he had a heavier accent, so the two of them basically changed their attitudes in an instant.
I originally thought that he was the same as me, at least a student from the provincial university, but now it seems that he is from a small place.
Seeing that the two were still silent, Liang Huaixin thought that he had really said something wrong and offended them. His expression instantly became awkward, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Brother, please come over to us." At this time, another student appeared beside Liang Huaixin, but his clothes were obviously more shabby than the previous two.
And he spoke with a thick accent.
When the two men saw Liang Huaixin being dragged away, they didn't say anything else, but left the gate of Yuening Academy together.
