Chapter 107 God
Seeing the four princes speaking in unison and deeming that Lu Yun’s article was the best, Lu Qi was stunned. He dared to make trouble with Lu Bai and the other two, but how could he dare to contradict the four high princes?
Seeing that the landlords and the four princes also praised Lu Yun for his confidence, Lu Qi felt a strong crisis.
"Go and report to my grandfather," Lu Qi hurriedly ordered the little man in a deep voice, "If you let them continue to torture, it will be difficult to end!"
The little man knew it, nodded and ran away.
The Elders' House is also in Lufang, only two or three hundred feet away from the Ethnic Academy, and you can reach it with your legs lifted.
In the Elders' House, several elders with good looks were drinking tea with him in the room of the Great Elder Lu Wen. There were no specific errands in the Elders' House, and drinking tea and chatting were their daily routine.
After chatting for a while, how to deal with Lu Shang next, everyone's topic turned to today's competition at the Academy of Rites. All the people here are the confidants of the Great Elder, so naturally they knew that he had already won Lu Yi, and the only place was Lu Qi's bag. So you said and said, congratulations to Lu Wen.
Lu Wen was also very worried about his grandson's situation. He was already very old and naturally had no hope of becoming a patriarch. The reason why he fought with Lu Shang was to the death was that it was just for his children and grandchildren?
In order to avoid suspicion, he did not appear in the Ethnic Academy, but sent two confidants to invigilate the exam. Looking at the situation outside, Lu Wenxin said that it was almost time for the result to come out.
At this time, the sound of tiny footsteps sounded in the courtyard, and several elders laughed and said, "The good news is here!"
Lu Wen closed his beard and smiled reservedly, "Don't talk nonsense." As he said that, his eyes had already moved towards the door.
Then he saw one of Lu Qi's followers running in sweaty. When he saw the expression on his face, Lu Wen knew that nothing was good, and he turned a blind eye and said, "What's wrong?"
The little man looked at the elders next to him, and Lu Wen snorted: "But it's okay."
"Go back to the Great Elder, something went wrong outside the Ethnic Academy." The little man hurriedly suggested that all the children's articles were posted on the wall and let everyone evaluate them. As a result, Lu Bai insisted that Lu Yun's articles were the first, and he tried his best to belittle Lu Qi, so that many people of the tribe believed the truth and told the Great Elder that they were telling it in a black and white way.
"Idiot!" The elder understood as soon as he heard this, and immediately said angrily: "This is obviously Lu Xin's trick. He wants to create momentum for his son! What are Lu Qi involved in?!"
"The young master thought that once his article was published, he would definitely stand out." The little man said timidly: "He also wanted to shock Lu Bai and others, so that the winner would be indisputable."
"Self-righteous!" The elder cursed with a dark face.
Seeing that the elder got angry, an elder hurriedly comforted him: "The elder doesn't have to be angry. Lu Xin's move is very naive. It is the matter of the Ethnic Academy who chooses who do not choose whom it is. What's the use of Lu Bai's boys who have not grown all their hair?"
"The problem is..." the little man said weakly: "It's not only Lu Bai and the others who said it, but even the four princes think so."
"What?!" The elder stared at the little man in surprise and said in disbelief: "Why are you pulling out four more palaces again?!"
"Who said no..." The little man said with a bitter face: "According to what the Highness said, he was passing by. The Second Highness said, he was following the Highness to watch the fun."
"Love the devil!" Although the elder has not been to court for a long time, he is still very familiar with the emperor's family affairs. In his understanding, the great prince Huangfu Xuan is sensitive and cowardly, and has always been worried about slander and ridicule. He should avoid it when he sees the excitement. How could he take the initiative to get up?
What's more, how could the other His Highnesses come together if they never deal with him?
The great elder, who was already accustomed to conspiracy and plot, immediately became alert to someone who wanted to fight with him!
"It's really strange. Even if Lu Xin became a master, there are hundreds of masters in the capital! How could he have such great face? He can invite the four high princes to create momentum for his son!" Several elders said in confusion. Whenever things involve the royal family, they will become subtle and complicated, and they have to figure it out to deal with it clearly.
Thinking deeper, would they make the Emperor Long Yan furious when they suppressed Lu Xin like this? Thinking of this, the elders couldn't help but feel guilty.
"No, I want to go over and take a look!" The elder didn't care about thinking about it carefully. He knew Lu Yi's fence-headed character very well, and he had to go over and put pressure quickly, otherwise he would inevitably fall with the wind again.
After saying that, the elder got up and went out. The servant hurriedly put on his shoes and followed him out of the Elder's House.
As soon as Lu Wen arrived at the door, he saw an elder sent to invigilator rushing back. As soon as he saw Lu Wen, the elder hurriedly came to his ear and reported softly: "There is a chaos in the Academy of Rites, and the old scholars insist on setting the young master's articles in the second place..."
"They are here to make trouble too!" Lu Wen's mood became worse and he asked in a deep voice: "Where is Lu Yi?"
"The fourth deacon drove away others and locked himself in the house for a while," the elder replied quickly, "I was worried that he would change his mind, so I came to report to the elder immediately."
"Good job!" Lu Wen nodded and quickly walked out of the Elders' Courtyard. Seeing the crowds of people outside the Ethnic Academy, he had to say hatefully: "Go around!"
So several people surrounded the elder, circled a big circle, avoided the crowd's sight, and walked around the back door of the Ethnic Academy. The elder who reported the news led Lu Xiang straight outside the lobby where Lu Yi was.
At this moment, the main hall was still closed, and another elder and several managers were waiting outside bored. When they saw the elders arrived, the people in the Academy of Rites dared not stop them, so they quickly made way.
Lu Wen pushed open the door and walked in.
In the lobby, Lu Yi was walking back and forth with his hands on his back, and when he heard someone coming in, he couldn't help but angrily: "Didn't you go out all the time?" After seeing clearly that it was the Great Elder, he bowed his hand and said irritably: "This is a big trouble."
"What's the trouble?" The elder sat down and said calmly.
"Why should the elder ask me knowingly?" Lu Yi knelt down in anger and said in a muffled voice: "Didn't you see it on the way here?"
"Are you talking about the voices outside?" the elder asked faintly.
"Not only outside, but also the teachers of the Ethnic Academy have also determined that Lu Xin's son's articles are better than Lu Qi's!" Lu Yi was really panicked. At this point, he felt that the reputation he had accumulated in half his life was in danger!
"You wrote Lu Qi's article!" The elder sneered: "Did the four deacons also think that they are not as good as a hairy child?"
"Then...of course not!" Lu Yi said with a blushing face: "But I was afraid that someone would see it at that time, so I didn't show my full level!"
"You are obsessed with it. You are the only one in literature. You are a deacon of ethics. If you choose who you don't choose who you say, isn't it just your word?" The elder smiled discontently.
"I can choose Lu Qi, but others are neither blind nor deaf nor dumb. What should I do afterwards do? How can I have the face to teach the children of the tribe? Get a foothold in this etiquette academy?!" Lu Yi said in a muffled voice.
"This is not a big deal, right?" The elder smiled and comforted him, "How old is Lu Yun? If I don't believe his article, I can't find any fault. If you pick it out for him, can you justify him?"
"I have read it less than ten times, and I really can't find any fault!" Lu Yi angrily handed Lu Yun's article to the Great Elder, and said blankly: "Why not the Great Elder help me pick it?!"
"How could it be impossible to find fault?" The Great Elder is also a master of parallel prose, so he naturally knew that it would be difficult to write an article in a short period of time, which is not wrong in parallel or rhythm. He did not believe in evil and took Lu Yun's article and recited it carefully: "Things conform to the rules and sounds are coordinated with Gongshang. Zhuxian is soft and generous, and the sadness is so heartbroken..."
After a cup of tea, Lu Wen lowered his hands and said dejectedly: "It's really heaven..."
