The neighbor got something, but he said that a few strangers came to look for Cousin Ke, and also described the appearance of the person who came over.
After listening carefully, Gu Yundong found that they did not match the appearance of the aunt and the others, and no one had said anything about the aunt and the others.
She was a little disappointed, but that was to be expected.
I don't know where the aunt and the others went. There is a vast sea of people, and it is too difficult to find someone without a goal.
Gu Yundong returned to the inn, and then got on the carriage with his parents and headed to Tianhai Academy.
These large academies are mostly located in mountain and forest resorts, but Tianhai Academy is located in Xuanhe Mansion.
The Academy is very large. It is located on the shore of Xuanhu Lake in the south of Xuanhe House, which is a little distance from the downtown area. But the environment is beautiful, quiet, and the literary atmosphere is strong, and the number of people who study every year is unknown.
Gu Yundong sat in the carriage, thinking that after his father entered school, it would be best to buy a house nearby, so that he could go back and forth easily.
Gu Dajiang was sitting opposite her, with a serious face at the moment, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Gu Yundong couldn't help laughing at his appearance, "Dad, are you nervous?"
Gu Dajiang shook his head, "I'm not nervous, but I'm not nervous. I've read all the books that I should read, and I understand what I should understand. But..."
"But what?"
Gu Dajiang thought for a while and said, "But I asked the shopkeeper of the inn this morning. The shopkeeper said that the head of Tianhai Academy is often not in the academy. I'm worried that we won't be able to meet in the past."
"Probably not. Master Qin has always been comprehensive in everything he does. He introduced us, and maybe he has already sent a letter to the mountain chief in advance. Besides, if we can't see you today, we'll see you tomorrow. Heaven opens a shop, don't be in a hurry at this time."
Gu Dajiang nodded, "That's true."
He stopped thinking about it, and simply lifted the curtain of the car and looked outside.
Just as the carriage passed the notice wall, he suddenly frowned and called Xue Rong, "Stop."
Gu Yundong was surprised, he followed his line of sight to look out, and immediately frowned.
The notice of her aunt and the others was posted on the notice wall, but after a few months, more than half of the portrait was blocked by other notices, and it was completely unclear what the aunt looked like.
Gu Yundong frowned, but there was nothing he could do. Qin Wenzheng also asked the yamen of the mansion to help, but it was impossible for them to guard the notice wall all day and not let other people's notices cover it.
"Father, let's go to Tianhai Academy first, come back and post a few more pictures. We will have a shop in Fucheng in the future, and people will often come to see it, so don't cover it up."
Gu Dajiang saw the portrait and thought of the eldest sister and the younger brother who have not been traced yet. If it's just that the whereabouts are unknown, it's not bad, I'm afraid even my life...
At the beginning, he should have also told the elder sister and the others that it would be good to meet in Qing'an Mansion in the future.
But little brother, he has said it before.
But whether it was Gu Dajiang or Gu Yundong, they had been looking for a while in Wanqing Mansion, but there was no trace of Gu Xiaoxi.
He shook his head, no, they would all be fine.
The carriage gradually drove away, and Gu Dajiang slowly recovered.
After a long time, the carriage finally stopped at the gate of Tianhai Academy.
Looking at the five six-pillar grand arches in front of him, Gu Dajiang took a deep breath, and his heart was inexplicably full of agitated emotions.
This is Tianhai Academy. It really deserves to be a century-old academy. Just standing outside this archway and looking up, you can feel the heavy and cultural atmosphere.
Chapter 599
Walking into the archway, you can see two huge stone walls, which are covered with densely engraved names.
All are the list of students who have been jinshi in Tianhai Academy for hundreds of years. At first glance, it is particularly shocking.
At this moment, Gu Dajiang finally has a sense of pride that he is about to enter a century-old prestigious school.
How could he have thought that one day he would come to study in such an academy that produced countless talented people, and the people he was about to make friends with were all future pillars of the country, and he couldn't be more excited.
If Confucius knew about it, he would definitely be very happy. When he succeeds in his studies, he will definitely take this honor to personally kowtow to the Master, and thank him for his careful cultivation.
"Dad, let's go in." Gu Yundong called him softly, seeing that he had been standing on the two walls looking at the names, as if he wanted to find the people he had heard of, she couldn't help laughing, "Dad's The name will also appear on this wall in the future."
Gu Dajiang was stunned for a moment, looked back at his daughter's bright eyes, and laughed, "You have confidence in Dad."
"Of course, how good my dad is, isn't he?"
Gu Dajiang was instantly excited. Even for the sake of his daughter, he must pass the examination of Chief Qi Shan, enroll in Tianhai Academy, participate in the imperial examination, and engrave his name on it.
He raised his head slightly, turned and strode towards the gate.
The concierge guarding the gate of the academy had already seen their family, but he didn't come forward to ask. In fact, people often come to Tianhai Academy just to look at the names on the stone walls, especially some students who are about to take the exam, as if they can just look at their own high school, the concierge has become accustomed to it.
It wasn't until Gu Dajiang's family walked up the stairs that he raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Excuse me, uncle, let me know, the students are here to visit Chief Qi Shan."
Chief Qi Shan? The concierge was stunned for a while, and saw Gu Dajiang take out a greeting card.
This is also given by Qin Wenzheng.
Tianhai Academy is literate even if the gatekeeper is literate. After reading the contents of the prayer post, he suddenly realized. "It turned out to be Mr. Gu. The mountain chief has previously explained, you come with me."
Gu Yundong and Gu Dajiang looked at each other, sure enough, Qin Wenzheng should have sent a letter to Chief Qi Shan first.
The family followed the gatekeeper into the academy, bypassing the shadow wall in front of the gate, and there was a square directly opposite.
The concierge took them through the square, and they saw an ancestral hall, which was enshrined with a stone statue of Confucius, very solemn.
Crossing the ancestral hall is a Dengke Bridge, and further inside is the lecture hall.
Gu Yundong could still faintly hear the students reading aloud, but the concierge did not lead them to the lecture hall, but instead walked around the corridor next to them and walked to the right.
This place should have been a school building in the past. The greenery and lush greenery and the quiet environment are completely different from the rigorous atmosphere of the previous lecture hall.
Being in it makes people feel at ease instantly.
"Go over that bridge, and it is the Yuanlu where the mountain chief lives. The old man will send it here, you are free."
finished and left.
Gu Yundong looked at Yuanlu not far away, and thought to himself, it was really convenient.
Gu Dajiang tidied up his clothes before walking onto the bridge with Gu Yunke in his arms.
Gu Yundong and the Yang family followed, but Xue Rong didn't come and was guarding the carriage outside.
The group of people just walked to the door of Yuanlu, and before they could make a sound, a voice came from inside, "Come in."
