Chapter 518: Liangzhou Student Qin Zhao
The two young men looked at Tangli, walked over and greeted him.
Tangli looked at the two of them.
Wei Ziang was holding a book in his hand, his face full of joy, while Xu Jue had his hands behind his back, but he seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Where are we going?" Tang Li asked curiously.
"Let's go visit Brother Qin." Wei Ziang said.
"Brother Qin?"
Which Brother Qin was this? Why hadn't she heard them mention him before?
"Brother Qin is Qin Zhao, a student from Liangzhou. He is talented, highly educated, and knowledgeable. His talent and knowledge are unmatched..." Xu Jue said a lot of compliments in a flash.
Tang Li always felt that something was wrong, a weird feeling.
"Someone admired him so much that he praised him all night long and couldn't wait to meet him in person."
Wei Ziang's face flushed slightly, and he nudged Xu Jue with his elbow, asking him to stop talking.
This Brother Qin was a student from Liangzhou, which was thousands of miles away from the capital. Although Wei Ziang had never met him, he had read several articles written by him and was immediately amazed by his talent, so he had been paying attention to him.
Qin Zhao was a man of character, his fame having spread far and wide, even reaching the capital. However, this was his first time in the capital to participate in the Spring Examination.
Because he once said that if he took part in the Spring Examination, he would definitely win the first place!
That is the top scholar.
He did not take part in the Spring Examination until he was confident that he would win the top spot.
His visit this time shows that he is confident enough to pass the exam and become the top scorer!
Wei Ziang admired Qin Zhao's talent. Qin Zhao came to Beijing yesterday, so Wei Ziang wanted to visit him today.
"Xu Jue, don't you want to discuss this book with him?" Wei Zi raised the book in his hand.
This book is obscure and difficult to understand, and Wei Ziang does not understand many parts of it. However, Qin Zhao specially wrote an interpretation of one of the chapters, which Wei Ziang admired very much.
Xu Jue snorted softly: "I don't want to."
Xu Jue originally wanted to hear that Qin Zhao had entered the capital, and was secretly happy, but last night, after Ziang had been nagging him all night, he suddenly stopped thinking about it.
"Okay, don't be angry, you are the best." Wei Ziang tugged at Xu Jue's sleeve in a flattering manner.
He naturally knew the reason why Xu Jue was angry. They grew up together since childhood. Although they were not related by blood, they were like brothers.
Wei Ziang had a good memory and he remembered the scene when Xu Jue first came to the Wei family.
He remembered that in the cold winter, the two of them would secretly get up to study.
He remembered how they fought back when they were bullied when they first started school...
He has a good memory and remembers many things clearly.
No matter how much he admired other people, it was just admiration, and naturally he could never kiss Xu Jue more than him.
"You have never met Qin Zhao, you have only read his articles. How do you know that I am better than him?" Xu Jue said.
"No matter how knowledgeable he is, you are the best." Wei Ziang said sincerely.
He is also protective of his own people. In his heart, Xu Jue is the most powerful.
Xu Jue snorted lightly, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Mom, let's go then." Wei Ziang said.
Tangli nodded: "Go ahead."
The two young men walked out side by side.
Tang Li watched their backs disappear and the smile on his face faded.
Qin Zhao...
The year before last, Your Majesty changed the reign title to 'Jingtai', so this year is the second year of Jingtai.
Tangli thought about the contents of the novel, the top scholar in the second year of Jingtai...
It was Qin Zhao, a student from Liangzhou.
To be the top scholar, one must be extremely talented.
In the novel, Xu Jue and Zi'ang were both top scorers in different classes, but that was several years later, so they are still young now.
When these three top scorers meet, it is hard to say who will win.
Xu Jue and Zi'ang both admired Qin Zhao, but they were afraid that Qin Zhao wasn't worth making friends with...
Never mind, they are fourteen years old now and can recognize and judge Qin Zhao’s character on their own and decide whether he is worth making friends with.
She couldn't interfere too much.
She is the only one who can pull them back if they go the wrong way.
The worried look on Tangli's face disappeared and he also walked out.
…
Opposite Qingfeng Pavilion, there is an inn called Longteng Pavilion. Many students from other places who came to Beijing to take the imperial examinations stayed in Longteng Pavilion.
Longteng Pavilion is very large, with two floors, square in shape, and surrounded by a large courtyard.
There are rockery and flowing water in the large courtyard, which is suitable for reading. There is a pavilion in the middle where students often discuss philosophy.
Xu Jue and Wei Ziang entered Longteng Pavilion.
The two came to the room in the corner of the second floor.
Wei Ziang knocked on the door.
He held the book, feeling a little expectant and a little nervous.
Xu Jue was also curious about what this talented Liangzhou student looked like.
Wei Ziang and Xu Jue waited for a while before someone came to open the door.
The person who opened the door was a man who looked like a servant.
"Who are you two?"
"I'm Wei Ziang, and this is Xu Jue. I've long heard of Brother Qin's great name and would like to meet him." Wei Ziang said with a smile.
"Wait a moment, both of you."
The servant turned around and went to the inner room to report. He said something and came out soon.
"You two, the young master is resting and it is inconvenient to meet you."
Wei Ziang said quickly, "Brother Qin, please rest first. Xu Jue and I will be waiting at the door."
The servant wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it and closed the door.
Wei Ziang and Xu Jue were standing at the door.
Xu Jue looked at the sky outside. It was already late, why was Qin Zhao still sleeping?
The two stood at the door for a long time.
"Xu Jue, are you tired?" Wei Ziang asked in a low voice.
He didn't know he would have to wait so long. If he had known, he would have found a place to sit downstairs and shouldn't have said he was waiting at the door.
However, the words have been spoken, and a gentleman's word is his bond. If the door is opened and they are not seen, it means they are not keeping their promise.
Xu Jue shook his head.
"Let's read." Xu Jue took the book from Wei Ziang's hand.
The two of them opened the book, put their heads together and started reading.
When you have something to do, time flies.
It was an hour later when the door was opened again.
The two of them raised their heads at the same time, and the servant boy was very surprised to see them.
"Are you still here?"
Wei Ziang nodded: "We said we'd wait at the door."
The servant turned around and said, "Master."
I saw a thin young man coming out. He was about eighteen years old, very thin, with ordinary looks, wearing a scholar's robe, and had a scholarly air.
The scholar saw Wei Ziang and Xu Jue.
All three of them performed the etiquette of scholars.
"We have read Brother Qin's "On the State" and "Book of Shanglin". We admire Brother Qin's knowledge very much. We have also read Brother Qin's analysis of this book in an article. We have many doubts in our hearts and would like to ask Brother Qin to solve them..." Wei Ziang said with shining eyes.
"Sorry, I have to visit an old friend. I'm afraid I don't have time to discuss this. I'll find you two when I have time."
Qin Zhao bowed to Wei Ziang and turned away without giving Wei Ziang a chance to speak.
Wei Ziang paused there, feeling a slight disappointment in his heart.
"This student from Liangzhou has always been known for his arrogance. It's normal for a talented person to have a strange personality. Let's visit him again when he is free." Xu Jue said.
Wei Ziang nodded, and the two of them left Longteng Pavilion.
Let’s talk about Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao went downstairs, got on the carriage waiting there, set off, and finally stopped in front of a mansion.
The three big characters "Rui Wangfu" were clearly written on the door plaque.
