Chapter 333: 333 Withdrawal
Chapter 333 333 Drop out of school
Chu Qianchen felt that the **** deserved a beating. If Chu Yunyi were sitting next to her at this moment, she would have slapped him on the head.
Forget it, it’s Chinese New Year. Chu Qianchen said to himself in his heart and made a gesture to Amber.
So Amber came out with a sword. The scabbard was silver, engraved with unicorn patterns, and the hilt was decorated with red tassels.
Chu Qianchen pointed at the sword and said, "This is given by your brother-in-law as lucky money."
She didn't say that she made the sword spike herself.
Chu Yunyi is also an expert on swords. He can tell by looking at the engraving on the scabbard: "This is a sword made by master swordsmith Li Yejiu!"
The sword is the weapon of a gentleman, the king of weapons.
The Li family is a well-known weapon forging family in the Qi Dynasty. This Li Yejiu is the best swordsmith among the Li family's children. Whenever a master like this makes a sword, every sword will be a famous and precious sword, otherwise it will only be damaged. Because of his reputation, he may not be able to forge a sword even after several years, which is in line with the old saying: a sword is sharpened by sharpening it.
Chu Yun Yi was so happy that he couldn't hide his joy at all. He grabbed the sword and refused to let go.
For a while he was looking at the scabbard, for a while he was stroking Li Yejiu's seal, and for a while he pulled out the sword, cut off a hair, and commented, "Blowing the hair will break the hair."
Chu Yunyi played with it for a long time and was reluctant to put the sword back into its scabbard. He felt that it must be because of his good performance in the actual combat training that his brother-in-law rewarded him with this sword.
So he only has it, Chu Yunmu doesn't.
Thinking about it, Chu Yunyi's smile became a little silly, and he thought that when he returned to the Hou Mansion, the first thing he would do was to show off to Chu Yunmu and make this little brat angry to death!
His brother-in-law was really nice to him!
Chu Yunyi waved two silver sword flowers showily, and then sheathed the sword. Then she remembered that she didn't seem to see her brother-in-law today, so she asked casually: "Sister, where is my brother-in-law?"
He was thinking that his brother-in-law had given him such a large amount of New Year's money, and he had to thank him in person.
Chu Qianchen smiled slightly, but said nothing.
When she squinted slightly, her phoenix eyes were beautifully curved, and the ends of her eyes were elegantly raised, outlining an unpredictable smile.
If this were the Chu Yunyi of the past, he would have been an ignorant stick. He might have asked questions foolishly, and even felt uncomfortable with being abandoned.
But now, he was no longer the same as he was half a year ago. The training in the military camp had made him grow up a lot. When Chu Qianchen didn't say anything, he knew there must be a reason and didn't ask a word.
At this moment, Chu Qianchen thought about Chu Yunyi who was deceived by Chu Qianhuang so much that he almost lost his life, and he felt emotional in his heart.
This little kid has grown up!
For some reason, Chu Qianchen thought of his past life.
In her previous life, when the prince watched her learn and grow little by little, was this how she felt now?
No, she is much smarter than that brat Chu Yunyi!
This is cleverness that even the prince has stamped his seal of approval on.
The corners of Chu Qianchen's lips were slightly curved, his eyes were moving, and his expression was soft and somewhat complacent, and there was an indescribable sweetness in his smile.
"..." Chu Yunyi knew inexplicably that his sister was thinking about his brother-in-law, which made him feel a little nauseous and thought to himself: That's strange. Aren't they two together every day? What else is there to think about?
Chu Yunyi looked away, silently playing with the sword he just got, eager to try the oranges on the coffee table. I heard that as long as the sword is sharp enough and the sword is drawn fast enough, you can cut a watermelon without being stained by watermelon juice. But what about oranges?
He thought for a while, but in the end he didn't draw the sword again. It would be better to go home and practice first, otherwise his sister might laugh at him!
Chu Yunyi grabbed the scabbard in his hand again, his expression suddenly became serious, he raised his eyes and looked at Chu Qianchen, and said seriously: "Second sister, I don't want to stay in the Imperial College anymore."
What he said was not to discuss with Chu Qianchen, but to inform him.
Chu Qianchen, who was peeling oranges, stopped in surprise and raised his eyebrows at him.
Chu Yunyi was admitted to the Imperial College in early September last year. Chu Qianchen also noticed how hard he worked to get into the Imperial College. Later, how hard this kid worked in the Imperial College, and it has only been a few months now. , he doesn’t want to stay anymore? !
After Chu Qianchen was stunned for a brief moment, his first reaction was -
"Someone bullied you?"
Chu Qianchen knew that after Chu Lingxiao was deprived of his title, Chu Yunyi was once ostracized in the Imperial College, but Gu Jue specifically asked Tang Yuchu to go to the Imperial College to say hello.
Someone actually dared to challenge their Prince Chen's Mansion!
Chu Qianchen's eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Who in this world can bully me!" Chu Yunyi was so furious that he wanted to take a picture of the coffee table, but he couldn't take the picture with the sword in his hand.
Is there such a sister? !
Is it because he was bullied? !
Chu Yunyi's wheat-colored face turned red, feeling that his dignity as a man had been challenged.
"fool!"
The black cat, who was squatting quietly watching the siblings, had its tail stepped on. The whole cat jumped up. The whole tail was all hairy, and it was as fluffy as a feather duster. It grinned at Amber.
Amber said with some embarrassment: "This slave did not do it on purpose."
She said this to both people and cats. She really didn't mean to step on the cat's tail.
"Pfft!"
Chu Qianchen felt that her stupid brother was as blind as a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and she smiled happily.
The smile couldn't stop flowing from the corners of his lips, bright, bright and joyful.
It was obviously the cat who was stupid, but Chu Yunyi always felt that his sister was laughing at him, forget it, he was a manly man and didn't care about his sister! Even for this sword, you can't argue with his sister, right?
Chu Yunyi saw a fist-sized takraw ball at his feet, and casually kicked the cat lightly.
The grinning fried cat forgot what he was angry about and went after the takraw ball.
Chu Yunyi was interrupted by this, took two sips of tea, and then regained his mood, and said seriously: "Sister, I am not only fresh for three months..."
It had only been four months since he entered the Imperial Academy, and he had to rest for a period of time because his **** was injured. It was only three months after all.
Chu Yunyi touched his nose, and suddenly felt that in the eyes of outsiders, he probably looked like this kind of person who likes the new and hates the old, and is restless.
However, it doesn't matter if others misunderstand him, he has to let his sister know what he thinks.
"I think it's boring to stay in the Imperial College." Chu Yunyi said slowly, carefully considering his words, "There are many courses in the Imperial College, including the Six Arts of a Gentleman, the Art of War, and Martial Arts. But how should I put it, learning the Art of War is just like talking about war on paper? Learning martial arts is like embroidering your fists and legs.”
"You don't know. One time, it was said to be a competition, and I accidentally struck too hard. There was no blood, no broken bones, and no broken skin. Some people said that I used force to commit violence and bully my classmates. Well... cough," Chu Yunyi almost stopped swearing and changed his words abruptly, "Young man, you actually went to find the supervisor, but the supervisor punished me and said I didn't understand the point."
"It's not just a 'click until it's done' method, sister, don't you think so?"
"We are going to go to the battlefield in the future, and if we are afraid of scratching our heads, isn't that just like playing on the stage?!"
Chu Yunyi held back his anger and really felt that it was too difficult for him. He felt that he was a man and shouldn't be gossiping around. He had been holding these words in his stomach for almost a month.
Now that he finally had the chance to speak out, he complained like a bamboo tube pouring beans. You felt suffocated, so he kicked the sepak takraw ball that the cat had jumped at again. This time, the sepak takraw ball came out of the half-open window. flew out.
So, the black cat jumped up lightly and jumped out of the window after the sepak takraw ball, its strong body drawing a beautiful arc in mid-air.
Chu Qianchen's face tilted slightly, as if muttering to himself: "Is the Imperial College now like this?"
In the previous dynasty, the Imperial College only had a liberal arts department. Emperor Taizu conquered the world on horseback and established Daqi, vowing to regain the territory south of the Yangtze River. Therefore, the Daqi Dynasty always paid equal attention to civil and military affairs, so they established a martial arts department in the Imperial College.
Chu Qianchen heard Gu Jue talk about the martial arts courses at the Imperial College. Emperor Taizu personally formulated the martial arts curriculum and arranged for some military generals who had retired from the battlefield to teach at the Imperial College. The martial arts supervisors had to go to various places every year. The training in the Wei Institute lasted for as little as one month and as many as three months.
Later emperors also abided by Emperor Taizu's legacy and continued to develop martial arts. In the history of Daqi, the Imperial College was home to numerous famous generals who were famous all over the world. Many generals with outstanding military exploits came from the Imperial College.
Chu Qianchen could tell that Gu Jue was praising him at that time. Now he thought, maybe what Gu Jue was comparing was how disappointed he was with the current Imperial College.
"Yes!" Chu Yunyi nodded vigorously, regardless of whether Chu Qianchen said this to him, "It's boring anyway!"
He made a final comment about the Imperial College and felt that his sister should believe him.
She is indeed his sister!
Chu Yunyi felt as if she had sugar in her mouth, feeling happy and sweet. She looked at Chu Qianchen expectantly: "Sister, can I not go?"
He opened his eyes unblinkingly, looking a little pitiful, a bit like a coquettish person.
There is a bit of arrogance in acting coquettishly, the arrogance of being favored.
Amber couldn't help but think of their cat, Yueying, who would wander around the princess's feet like a spoiled brat.
Chu Qianchen did not respond directly, but instead asked him: "Have you asked your mother?"
Chu Yunyi touched her nose and smiled: "I have asked. Mother asked me to ask you what you mean. As long as you agree, it will be fine."
"If you don't want to go, just don't go." Chu Qianchen said cheerfully.
From Chu Qianchen's point of view, Chu Yunyi was admitted to the Imperial College by himself, and whether he was admitted or not was up to him.
Anyway, the decision I made, even if it broke my head and blood flowed, I had to go on, just like Gu Jue resolutely went to the Northland at the age of fifteen.
She knew that Gu Jue had no regrets and that someone had to do some things.
As a son of man, he must share the worries of the late emperor; as a prince, he must protect the people of Qi!
As a result, Chu Yun was so happy that he burst into laughter. The next moment, he noticed that his sister had "that" smile again.
Alas, she was thinking about her brother-in-law again.
Chu Yunyi shook his head secretly, leaned over with a salivating face, and asked more and more: "Sister, that Xuanjia Camp..."
Chu Yunyi stared at Chu Qianchen with burning eyes. As long as she agreed, she could let him go up the mountain of swords and the sea of fire!
Chu Qianchen saw his thoughts at a glance and felt that he was still a little kid who was sold and given money for a few people, and he needed to experience it again!
"I have to ask the prince," Chu Qianchen said.
"Of course, sister, please tell your brother-in-law properly." Chu Yunyi deserved to be very obedient.
Not only did he have a good attitude, before he left, he also deliberately left a "bribe": "Sister, look, this is a piece of jadeite that I took all the hard work from others. My brother-in-law can't carve it." "Can you ask him to carve something for you?" Chu Yunyi felt that he was very considerate. He might not be in line with his sister's wishes when he bought the jewelry directly. If she wanted something, let her brother-in-law carve it for her. That would be the best of both worlds.
He felt that this was a wonderful idea, and happily left with the "new year's money".
As soon as he left, Amber finally couldn't help laughing. The eldest young master is so funny.
Chu Qianchen couldn't help laughing and muttered: "Naughty kid!"
How can anyone give gifts like him?
However, looking at the quality of this jadeite, it has a good water quality, it is glass, and it is crystal clear. This guy really put a lot of thought into it.
Chu Qianchen consciously accepted the "bribe" and went to do things loyal to others.
Gu Jue's wounds are healing well and he has been moved to an inner room since last night.
The temperature in the room with the charcoal pot lit is just right, and you won't feel cold even if you are wearing single clothes.
Gu Jue only wore a moon-white loose Taoist robe. After three days of nursing, and even if Chu Qianchen took good care of him and gave him various supplements, medicines and acupuncture, he still lost some weight, but he was still in good spirits.
At this moment, he was leaning on several large pillows and sitting slanted on the couch with a lazy and leisurely expression. If you didn't look at his chest wrapped in white cloth under his Taoist robe, you wouldn't have seen that he was recovering from his injuries.
Next to the couch was a quince wood chessboard with black and white chess pieces dotted around it.
Before Chu Yunyi came, Chu Qianchen was playing chess with Gu Jue, but she didn't let Gu Jue move around, so she placed both the black stones and Gu Jue's white stones on the chessboard.
After Chu Qianchen sat down, he looked at the chess game, and absent-mindedly relayed Chu Yunyi's words to Gu Jue, and finally let out a sigh: "Why did the Imperial College become like this!"
She still remembered the piece of jadeite that Chu Yunyi gave her, and put it on the bedside table: "Here, this is what he gave me. He asked you to carve something for me to play with." Chu Qianchen said, reluctantly Couldn't help but laugh.
Gu Jue also looked at the fist-sized jade stone and smiled too.
Chu Qianchen said with a smile: "When you get better, carve a bracelet and a jade pendant for me to play with. I should be able to make other things out of the scraps..."
"Okay." Gu Jue agreed without saying a word.
Chu Qianchen was happy in his heart, and he was excitedly thinking about what else he could carve, and then he heard Gu Jue say again: "Yun Zhan is also from the Imperial College. It has been passed down from generation to generation, and they will emphasize culture over martial arts. With this kind of culture, the Imperial College The martial arts gradually changed, which is not surprising. "
Emperor Taizu thought about regaining the south of the Yangtze River until his death, but in the following generations of emperors, there were many like Gu Lang who only wanted to guard the country in the north.
Chu Qianchen moved his eyes from the jade stone to Gu Jue's still pale face. His eyes continued to move downwards and landed on the graceful and uneven collarbone. He felt a little distressed: When he recovered from his injury, she had to take it. He gained ten pounds and developed a beautiful body of muscles.
Gu Jue couldn't bear to see her, so he could only raise his right hand to cover her eyes, and continued: "Now, 70% of the martial arts students in the Imperial College are from noble families."
Chu Qianchen sat obediently, motionless, somewhat understanding.
Although many of the liberal arts students in the Imperial College come from clans, nobles and official families, there is no danger in studying in the liberal arts, but it is different in the martial arts. How many young people can actually fight with weapons? If you click too far, you will inevitably suffer some injuries, big and small.
The families of these students could not afford to offend any of them, so the gentlemen of the Imperial College could only seek stability, and gradually they went from serious beatings to showy tricks, and then, slowly, the falsehoods outweighed the truths.
Slowly and slowly, the Imperial College became more and more disgraceful.
Gu Jue said jokingly: "Yun Zhan came out of the Imperial College. When he first entered the military camp, he couldn't even walk with Xue Fengyan. He even ate at a table by himself."
"At that time, other people looked down upon him and thought he was a young man from the capital."
"I still remember that in the first three months, he had to fight Xue Fengyan, and if he didn't make ten moves, he would fall off the ring."
Gu Jue still covered Chu Qianchen's eyes with his hands, and the place where their skin touched became increasingly warm.
Chu Qianchen listened with interest, smiled, the corners of his lips curved, and the pair of sweet pear dimples appeared on his lips.
She didn't know these things. Yunzhan died young in his previous life, and Xue Fengyan and Mo Chen rarely mentioned him.
"Ahem."
The sound of a man's slightly awkward dry cough came from outside.
Then Yun Zhan's familiar voice sounded outside the door curtain: "Your Majesty."
Gu Jue stared at Chu Qianchen's lips for a moment, then slowly withdrew his right hand from Chu Qianchen's eyes and said at the same time: "Come in."
Yun Zhan opened the curtain himself, deliberately slowed down his pace, and walked in slowly, with an expression that was hard to describe, and he couldn't look directly at Chu Qianchen.
Just now, Yun Zhan happened to hear the last few words said by Gu Jue. At this time, he looked a little embarrassed and felt a little embarrassed. At the same time, he had to sigh in his heart: The prince has such a good memory!
"Your Majesty, Princess." Yun Zhan clasped his fists and saluted respectfully.
He shouldn't have entered the inner courtyard originally, but now that the prince is recuperating and the princess won't let him move, they might as well just let them go directly to the inner courtyard.
Anyway, there are not many female relatives in the palace, just the queen mother and the princess. The princess usually comes in and out of the prince's study at will, and often comes and goes with them. There is nothing to avoid.
Yun Zhan actually had a lot of emotions in his heart. He felt that Chu Yunyi was much luckier than him. He had wasted three years in the Imperial College and had not learned as much as he had in the Beidi Army for half a year.
He thought wildly for a while, calmed down, and got down to business: "Your Majesty, the last 10,000 people from Xuanjia Camp arrived at Fengtai Camp yesterday, and the joint camp will officially begin today."
"General, I plan to have the entire army conduct exercises together in three days."
Even if there is no cooperation, the Xuanjia Army will conduct routine exercises after the beginning of spring to prevent the soldiers from being too relaxed during the Chinese New Year.
Gu Jue nodded and said, "You and Xue Fengyan will be responsible for this matter."
While they were talking about business, Chu Qianchen sat back at the chessboard and continued to stare at the chessboard. After a while, she finally picked up a black stone and landed it on the upper right corner of the chessboard.
Well, if we take this step, we should be able to lose more slowly!
After Yunzhan accepted the order, Gu Jue took the initiative to turn the topic to Chu Yunyi: "Chu Yunyi plans to drop out of the Imperial College. Yunzhan, next, you will take care of him."
Yun Zhan raised his eyebrows in surprise. Chu Yunyi had never mentioned to him that he wanted to drop out of school before, and he had never suggested anything to Chu Yunyi.
After a brief moment of surprise, Yun Zhan calmed down and said to himself: As expected of the princess's younger brother, he is courageous!
If most of the noble disciples are admitted to the Imperial College, they will study hard in the Imperial College for a few years, and then take the martial arts examination to find a career first. It is not easy for Chu Yunyi to have such determination and awareness at such a young age.
Gu Jue said to Chu Qianchen again: "Brother Yi is young, let him study with Yun Zhan for two years first."
Yunzhan went from the Imperial College to the military camp. His experience was similar to Chu Yunyi's and his background was similar. He knew what the martial arts students in the Imperial College lacked most and could save Chu Yunyi from making many detours.
Chu Qianchen agreed without saying a word. She would listen to whatever Gu Jue said anyway, and she also understood Gu Jue's good intentions.
Then, she sent Jiang Yuan to inform Chu Yunyi.
Jiang Yuan personally went to the Yongding Marquis Mansion. Chu Yunyi was surprised and happy after hearing the news. He praised his sister for being so efficient. When he was happy, he gave Jiang Yuan a reward of ten taels of silver and returned to the palace. On the way, I brought snacks and candies to the maids in the main courtyard.
In the next few days, Chu Yunyi was extremely contented, counting his fingers in the Hou Mansion every day and looking forward to it. When the Imperial Academy started on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, he immediately went to find a sacrificial wine and dropped out of school.
Sun Jijiu was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
It was difficult to get into the Imperial College, and only a handful of places were admitted each year. Few people dropped out of school without passing the imperial examination.
Sun Jijiu gave some kind words of advice: "Chu Yunyi, it's hard to recover from overturned water. Once you drop out of school and want to come back, you will have to wait for the next enrollment period of the Imperial College and then retake the exam. Everything will have to be started from scratch according to the rules."
"If you have any difficulties, you can tell me, or you can go back and rest for a while. Young people should not act impulsively just because of their anger."
"It's not that I rely on my old age to show off my old skills. We have seen too many young people who were young and frivolous and regretted it later!"
Sun Jijiu persuaded him earnestly, while Zheng Jiancheng nodded frequently.
The other party had good intentions, and Chu Yunyi understood it, so he kept his attitude very correct: "Thank you Sun Jijiu for your kindness, I have already thought about it."
Seeing Chu Yunyi's firm attitude, Sun Jijiu stopped trying to persuade him and agreed.
While Sun Jijiu ordered people to prepare for the withdrawal procedures, he exchanged a look of disapproval with Zheng Jiancheng.
Zheng Jiancheng recalled that Chu Yunyi had asked for leave from time to time in the past few months in the Imperial College, and he had injured a classmate years ago. He felt that Chu Yunyi was just a thorn in the side and not a good prospect. In fact, such a person would be out of place in the Imperial College, and it would be better if he left, so as not to bring down his classmates.
After signing a few words and pressing a few fingerprints, Chu Yunyi took the two documents and left without incident.
He was so majestic and so brisk that he was almost floating.
But before he walked out of the gate of the Imperial College, he was stopped by someone: "Chu Yunyi!"
Chu Yunyi turned around, and not far away, a young man about fifteen years old wearing a dark red cloak with a trim was walking towards him.
The handsome young man has jet black hair **** with a purple gold crown inlaid with rubies. His skin is fair and delicate, his forehead is smooth and plump, his lips are red and his teeth are white. When he walks, he exudes arrogance in his bones, like a spoiled child.
Who is this? Chu Yunyi tilted his face slightly, thinking hard, feeling that the other person seemed a little familiar. But it’s normal to look familiar. The Imperial College is only so big. Whether they are liberal arts or martial arts students, they can’t see them when they look up, but they can see them when they look down. Even if they can’t call them by name, many people will think they look familiar.
Meng Siming stopped only two steps away from Chu Yunyi. He was half a head shorter than Chu Yunyi. When the two of them stood face to face, he would naturally look a little weak.
Meng Siming felt even more uncomfortable. He squinted his eyes and stared at Chu Yunyi's face for a while, thinking to himself: There is nothing good about this person named Chu!
Meng Siming came to the Imperial College because of Chu Yunyi.
He knew that Kang Hongda had a crush on Chu Yunyi, so he went to great lengths to beg Kang Hongda to place him in the Imperial College. Others had to take exams when entering the Imperial Academy, but when Kang Hongda opened his mouth, it was just a matter of one sentence.
Chu Yunyi thought for a while, but didn't remember who the other party was, so he gave up. He waited for a while, and when he saw that the other party couldn't speak, he turned around again and walked away without looking back, thinking: What's wrong!
"Stop!" Meng Siming called out to Chu Yunyi again, his voice raised by three points, "Class is about to start, where are you going?"
Meng Siming frowned when he saw Chu Yunyi nodded and left without saying a word. He felt that this man was really vulgar and rude, and he didn't know what Kang Hongda saw in him. You don’t think he’s unruly, right? !
This time, let alone staying, Chu Yunyi didn't even bother to look back at him and said casually: "I dropped out of school."
He raised the document in his hand and shook it wildly. The fingerprints on the document and the cinnabar mark on the lid of the sacrificial wine were as bright and dazzling as blood.
He combed his high ponytail and strode forward. The ponytail swayed slightly, he was high-spirited, and his whole body exuded a kind of unruliness that disdained the world.
(End of chapter)
