Qingzhu Pavilion, there are many green bamboos planted outside the pavilion, hence its name.
Jiang Ningxuan came as promised.
Bai Wenxuan said: "Girl Ningxuan, honestly speaking, is the purpose of your trip to Kyoto?"
After getting off the Kunlun Mountains, if you want to go to Hangzhou where Jiang Yuanqi is located, you will not pass by Yanzhou at all. Instead, you are going to Kyoto, and Yanzhou is a must-pass.
Since the master took the initiative to bring it up, Jiang Ningxuan didn't hide it and simply nodded to admit it.
Bai Wenxuan looked at his young disciple with worry in his eyes: "Girl Ningxuan, the situation in Kyoto is complicated now. If possible, I hope you will not go."
Jiang Ningxuan didn't speak, her silence already made her attitude clear.
Bai Wenxuan sighed.
"Girl Ningxuan, you have your own choice to take. I just hope that everything will go well for you in the future. Since you have decided to go to Kyoto at this time, there are some things that I want to tell you clearly in advance.
"Bai Wenxuan reluctantly compromised.
Jiang Ningxuan nodded obediently.
Although Bai Wenxuan is far away in Yanzhou, seemingly far away from the center of power in Kyoto, he still knows a lot about what is happening in Kyoto.
White Crane Academy is the leader of literati in the world. Except for the Imperial College in Kyoto, no academy has such a prestigious status as White Crane Academy. Most of the disciples who have left White Crane Academy in recent years have served as officials in the imperial court, ranging from those in charge of government to those in power.
Each of the six yamen in Kyoto is doing its own thing.
Jiang Ningxuan pricked up her ears and listened. One hour, two hours, three hours... Her sitting posture was still upright, and her mind was quickly digesting all kinds of news that the master said. In the shortest possible time, from these news
I peeled off the cocoons and connected them into a network, trying to figure out the interpersonal relationships in Kyoto in the shortest possible time.
Every time Jiang Ningxuan opened her mouth to ask, she was able to get the point right.
Bai Wenxuan likes students who can draw inferences from one instance and understand others well, and he is very enthusiastic about teaching.
The master and the apprentice were both teaching and learning, and time passed by unconsciously.
At dinner time, Duanmu Wen and Qi Qi did not see Jiang Ningxuan and Dean Bai at the dinner table, and looked at Li Siyuan with questioning eyes.
Li Siyuan said: "You two should eat first. The master and the junior sister are discussing knowledge and probably won't come out to eat."
As the chief disciple, Li Siyuan is very familiar with the master's style of doing things. When he was teaching in the academy, he met Yumuzada. When he was in a good mood, he would give some advice, but when he was in a bad mood, he would not say a word.
When you meet a person with a clear mind, there is really endless things to say. As a teacher, you can't wait to teach him everything you have.
The teacher and the student both teach well and learn with enthusiasm. Time flies by really fast.
The next day, Jiang Ningxuan said goodbye to her master and set off again, heading towards Kyoto.
The situation in Kyoto was complicated, and she didn't want to delay for a moment.
Bai Wenxuan stood at the foot of the mountain, watching the leaving figure of his little apprentice, and stood there for a long time.
The breeze blows, and the early autumn morning makes people feel cold instantly.
Li Siyuan personally accompanied his master to see off the junior sister. Sensing the coldness surrounding his body, he stepped forward and persuaded: "Master, the junior sister has left. Let's go back to the academy."
Bai Wenxuan sighed, held his eldest disciple's hand, and walked slowly towards the mountain.
Storms are rising in Kyoto and waves are spreading all over the world. I hope everything in the world will be peaceful.
Kyoto, Imperial Study Room.
The emperor's decree to go to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen was announced to the world. From inside the palace to outside the palace, both the accompanying officials and the imperial guardsmen who escorted him were all prepared.
After three days of busy work, Luan Jia was finally ready, and the mighty procession of worshiping heaven departed from Kyoto and headed towards Mount Tai.
The Imperial Master accompanied him, and His Majesty stayed in Kyoto.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is staying in Kyoto. So, while His Majesty is away from the capital, His Highness the Crown Prince will supervise the country and handle political affairs." An outsider asked, not knowing the situation.
The scholar who spoke shook his head repeatedly when he heard this.
"What's the truth?" The puzzled man then asked. The prince is the lord of the East Palace and the crown prince of the country. His Majesty is not in Kyoto, so naturally it should be His Highness the prince who supervises the country and handles political affairs.
The scholar looked around and said nothing.
The person who asked the question poured the scholar a glass of wine, and at the same time called the waiter, ordered some delicious dishes, and gave the waiter a silver coin, and the scholar's table was settled with him.
The scholar looked a little hesitant. Thinking that this matter was not a secret in Kyoto, he lowered his voice slightly and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was punished to stay in the palace to think about his mistakes behind closed doors. The person who handled the matter was the cabinet minister appointed by His Majesty."
Your Majesty and His Royal Highness, the most noble father and son in the world, no one dares to interfere with the affairs of the Tian family.
When His Majesty left Kyoto to go to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen, he did not ask His Highness the Crown Prince to accompany him, nor did he issue an explicit decree to relieve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's regrets.
"So, His Highness the Prince can only stay in the Prince's Mansion and think about his mistakes." The scholar said, picking up the wine glass and drinking another glass of wine. The student from the Imperial College did not notice that after drinking several glasses of wine, unknowingly, those
He said everything that should be said and shouldn't be said.
After drinking the last glass of wine, the scholar lay directly on the table and fell asleep.
"Young Master, Young Master?" I called several times, but the scholar showed no response. It was obvious that he was very drunk and would not be able to wake up in a short time.
"Let's go." The one who talked a lot said. Before leaving, he kindly paid for the drink and told the waiter to take care of the drunk scholar.
Inn, inside the room.
The people Jiang Ningxuan sent out to find out the news came back one after another, bringing the latest news from Kyoto.
Yue Qi said: "Miss Jiang, I can go back to the prince's residence and have a look."
Jiang Ningxuan shook her head and said, "Don't go yet, wait until it gets dark."
In the daytime, there were countless spies watching the Prince's Mansion. They went there rashly, but they might have already alerted the people waiting outside the mansion before they saw the master.
Yue Qi nodded.
Qi Qi held a soft and cute white rabbit in her arms. She looked very non-aggressive. Every time she saw someone asking questions, looking at Qi Qi like this, those being questioned would quickly put down their guard.
Start chatting with him.
Jiang Ningxuan received more and more news.
It will get dark soon.
All those who had gone out returned to the inn. After gathering, they shared the news they had seen with each other.
Duanmu Wen said in a cold voice: "According to the current situation, the situation in Kyoto is very complicated, and it is very unfavorable to Senior Brother."
Qiqi's eyes were very worried, fearing that the senior brother would suffer a loss.
When the two of them first learned about the true identity of their senior brother, their mouths opened in shock, and the surprise in their eyes could not be concealed. Now they can talk very calmly.
After dark, after dinner, several people changed their clothes and set off again.
Yue Qi led the way, while Jiang Ningxuan and Duan Muwen all followed behind. The group were all experts, and they regarded the curfew after nightfall in Kyoto as nothing, and successfully approached the Prince's Mansion.
