Chapter 100: Check-in at the Imperial College



The little fat bird chirped alone. If its voice was not so soft, Shen Yanjin would have pinched its little mouth long ago.

Xiao Ling asked all the questions he wanted to ask along the way. Fortunately, although Xiao Lingling was simple-minded and naive, her answers were mostly on point.

For example, why he hasn't spoken for more than 900 years, and why it is the only one that can hear him... and so on.

When the carriage arrived at the destination and he was taken out, he was stunned when he saw the flamboyant calligraphy on the door plaque.

Imperial College?

What is Shen Yanjin doing here...

This time, Xiao Xu was not put in the sleeve, but tucked into the lapel.

Because of her cumbersome attire, it was hard to tell that she had something in her arms.

There was a long way to go from the entrance to the classroom. This time, Chen Yanjin did not do it himself, but ordered Chen Wang to push it from behind.

The bluestone slabs are smooth, and although some of them are already damaged, one can still see the brilliance of their heyday.

It can be said that there is the radiance of clouds under the eaves and the shadows of magpies fluttering between the beams.

A Yuan Dynasty palace with green tiles and red walls.

After walking for about half an incense stick, I finally entered the corridor of the classroom. Through the wall, I could hear the teacher's voice teaching from inside. It was deep, majestic and catchy.

When they walked to the middle of the corridors on both sides, they saw a short figure. It was a handyman leading the way. The man first bowed to Shen Yanjin, made a gesture of invitation, and then led people to the study of the dean of the Imperial College.

“Knock knock…”

The handyman knocked lightly and said, "Dean, the person is here."

After a while, the door opened with a click, revealing an old man with a face full of wrinkles. Although he was white-haired and looked over a hundred years old, what was admirable was that the old man still stood upright and looked very strong.

The old man was wearing a plain blue shirt, with his hands behind his back, and he slowly said, "Come in."

After Shen Yanjin raised his hand to salute the old man, he nodded and turned his wheelchair to follow him in, leaving Shen Wang and the handyman boy alone. They looked at each other and then looked calm.

The old man sat down, brewed some tea, took a sip, and said in a voice neither too loud nor too soft: "I believe you have received the emperor's order. You will stay in the Imperial College for the next two months. Your injury is not suitable for traveling."

Xiao Xu was bewildered when he heard that. He first looked at Shen Yanjin's jaw with his little head, and then at the old man drinking tea opposite him.

“The students know.”

Shen Yan bowed with his hand, his wide sleeves fluttering, his face delicate and elegant.

The old man was a little dazed by the sight. He secretly said, "The young man is as pure as jade and the gentleman is modest."

"You go and pack up, the servants will be waiting at the door."

He waved his hands, obviously trying to drive people away.

Shen Yanjin didn't plan to stay for long. He responded with a cold look and neither humble nor arrogant, then turned his wheelchair and walked out of the study.

After leaving the Imperial College, Shen Yanjin returned home, packed up casually, and then took a carriage to the market.

This time he bought the four treasures of the study, which were of excellent quality. The shop owner even compared the high-quality pens and inks with the inferior ones several times, and was very enthusiastic.

After buying the daily necessities, Shen Yanjin also bought a lot of cakes and snacks, which made Xiao Xu so greedy that he couldn't wait to open them and eat them.

However, because it was inconvenient outside, Xiao Xu had to endure it.

The carriage rumbled as we entered the Imperial College again.

The servant at the door bowed and led the people to their residence.

Fortunately, Shen Yanjin was injured and could live alone, instead of living with that group of bookworms. Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief.

But after entering the room, Xiao Xu's relief came back.

This is too simple. There is nothing except a bed and a basin of water.
