C355 A society of scholars (1/2)
Early morning was a trivial episode. Although Guan Yu and Sun Shangxiang thought that they had discovered some kind of incredible secret. But Xiao Wen did not have such a conscious mind.
In reality, it was just like what Guan Yu and Sun Shangxiang had said. It was impossible to do this without a thousand exercises. However, he had actually practiced for thousands of times – after all, as a cat shoveling officer, this kind of thing would definitely happen every day. It could even be said that Xiao Wen was strong enough to bathe with a cat without any injuries!
The Great Tang Dynasty was a very rich country, relying on the Anxi Capital Residence to plunder resources from the Western Regions nonstop, supporting the whole country. Although the gross national product was not as exaggerated as the Song Dynasty's, even a veteran city guard could be richer than a Western European aristocrat.
However, the quality of their lives was not any worse than that of the Great Song. Even if you were an aristocrat, being able to get enough benefits from the Anxi Capital Residence, the noble officials of the Great Tang Dynasty would be even more luxurious than the aristocrats of the Great Song Empire.
As for Xiao Wen and the others, although they were just guests, their quality of life was still first-class.
After enjoying the sumptuous breakfast that the Great Tang Dynasty had prepared for them — Of course, Guan Yu's and Sun Shangxiang's breakfast was still as simple as ever.
After that, Xiao Wen accompanied Guan Yu and the others for a short period of time. The purpose was only to maintain the quality of their bodies, but it did not improve in the slightest.
”Sir, where are we going today?” In the carriage, Shangguan Waner asked.
”Let's go to Songyang Academy today. After all, although I can prove that what happened yesterday was a misunderstanding, but if I don't go, I guess those Confucian Scholars will still have a knot in their hearts. Thus, I had already sent someone to send a farewell letter to Songyang Academy yesterday. I believe that they would be prepared to welcome us here … By the way, Wan-Er, what's wrong with you? Did you not sleep well last night? ”
Hearing that, Shangguan Waner became clever, and immediately revealed an embarrassed expression.
Sun Shangxiang looked at Wan'er with a funny look and said to Xiao Wen: ”Wan'er saw Princess Gao Yang yesterday, so she didn't sleep well last night.”
Although the courtyard the Great Tang Dynasty had given them had enough rooms, they could definitely sleep in one room each. But as good sisters, Sun Shangxiang and Shangguan Waner still slept together.
Hearing this, Zhuge Liang was a bit worried as he said, ”Wan'er, this isn't good! This Great Tang Dynasty is your old home, if you see someone you know every time, then I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well when you go back to Great Tang Dynasty. You must adjust your mindset... Woo woo … Yang Xiu, what are you doing? ”
”You talk too much nonsense.” Yang Xiu rolled his eyes at Zhuge Liang, then rubbed his hand that was originally covering Zhuge Liang's mouth, which was dripping with Ge Liang's saliva, onto Zhuge Liang's body twice. After confirming that he had wiped it clean, his eyes finally revealed a relieved expression.
Hearing Yang Xiu's words, Zhuge Liang also understood his own Meng Lang. He looked at Wan-Er apologetically.
Wan-Er felt embarrassed though. She rubbed the back of her head and said, ”Teacher, Big Brother Xiao Liang, Wan'er will take note of it. You don't have to worry.”
”Yes.” This was Wan'er's own problem, if Wan'er could fix it herself, Xiao Wen wouldn't be able to say anything.
The Songyang Academy was outside of the Luoyang City, and after everyone had left the city, they sped along, all the way until noon, when they finally arrived.
”If those fellows are really Songyang Academy's students and want to cause trouble for us, they would probably immediately board the horse carriage and run all the way to Luoyang after morning class. This was obviously unlikely. After all, sometimes they can't just run over without eating. ” After arriving at the Songyang Academy's door, it was unknown if he was possessed by Di Renjie, but Zhuge Liang seemed to have instantly become a detective. He found out that those guys from yesterday were not students of Songyang Academy.
Xiao Wen nodded his head, expressing his agreement.
In fact, even a fool would know that the events of yesterday were being tormented by Xiao Wen. No one would believe that Xiao Wen had killed the students of the Songyang Academy with so much conclusive evidence.
And the reason why Xiao Wen came here today was not to explain, but to resolve the knot in both sides through a friendly exchange. Otherwise, even if the people from the Songyang Academy knew that they were not killing their students, they would still have a strange look in their eyes when they saw Xiao Wen.
