Chapter 703 Humiliation
Xu Geng looked at Lin Chong with some doubts, wondering why he was so confident.
Lin Xuan smiled, but did not tell Xu Geng that Li Shimin would come.
Xu Geng suggested that he invite Li Shimin to watch it, so that those academies would not dare to go too far.
However, those academies were instigated by the aristocratic family, and the so-called competition was also a test for Li Shimin by the aristocratic family.
It's fine if Li Shimin doesn't come, but if he comes, the questions given by those academies will be even more tricky.
……
Outside Boyuan Academy, He Yu and the masters from other colleges got out of the carriage with the support of the students.
One of the masters looked at the mountain gate of Boyuan Academy, and said with a smile: "Boyuan Academy is very well built."
Boyuan Academy is built on the hillside. The main body is made of cement and bricks. The exterior is indeed the mainstream architectural style of the Tang Dynasty.
Lin Xuan was not short of money, and the entire academy was built magnificently.
He Yu said disdainfully: "Academy is a place for teaching and educating people, but Boyuan Academy does not live up to its name."
"Extremely, extremely."
He Yu's words won a lot of echoes. They were trying to spoil the situation, and they would naturally not let go of the opportunity to attack Boyuan Academy.
Mrs. Xu, who came to greet them, heard that they belittled Boyuan Academy so much, a trace of anger flashed across his face, but he didn't dare to explode.
If it was someone else, he could still argue a few words, but He Yu is a great Confucian, so he can't question it.
"I have seen He Daru and the masters, and I am here to welcome you by the order of the master." Master Xu said with a salute.
"Ah."
He Yu responded lightly and continued walking forward.
The rest of the people didn't even look at Master Xu, and followed He Yu into the academy, as if they were the masters of the academy.
Master Xu's face was ugly, he took a deep breath, and quickly stepped forward to lead the way for everyone.
Although the attitudes of these people made him very uncomfortable, he was representing the academy at this time, and he couldn't lose the academy's face.
Master Xu led them to the square in the middle of the academy.
I saw dozens of seats on the left and right sides of the square.
In the upper part of the middle, there are also more than a dozen seats.
Master Xu pointed to the seat on the right and said, "He Daru and all masters, please sit down."
Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the respect for the left has gradually formed, and it has been passed down to the present.
Mr. Xu didn't ask them to sit on the front, let them sit on the right, it is a shame to them.
"Is this how Boyuan Academy treats guests?"
"Haha, Boyuan Academy doesn't even understand basic etiquette, so it's better to close early, so as not to mislead the younger generation."
He Yu's self-identity is not easy to get angry, but the others don't have so many worries, and they all blamed her.
"Since everyone is talking about etiquette, don't you understand the principle that the guest does what the host does? Do you want to be that evil guest who steals away the host?"
Mrs. Xu originally had some objections to Lin Xuan's arrangement, but after seeing the faces of these people just now, the trace of objection in his heart disappeared long ago.
On the contrary, seeing these people filled with anger, he felt a sigh of relief.
Lin Xuan and Xu Geng were looking at the situation on the square in a corner where no one could see.
When seeing the masters of those academies making a fuss, Xu Geng said worriedly: "Your Majesty, nothing will happen, right?"
If the seats were only arranged on the left and right sides, it would make sense for Boyuan Academy, as the host, to occupy the position on the left.
But Lin Xuan also arranged a seat at the top.
From Xu Geng's point of view, Boyuan Academy must sit at the top. Lin Xuan made the other academies sit on the right, but vacated the left, deliberately to humiliate them.
It's cool to do this, but if it spreads out, it will have a great impact on the reputation of Boyuan Academy.
Lin Xuan smiled and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to go out."
After speaking, go to the square.
"You Boyuan Academy are obviously humiliating us."
"Yeah, how can we be so humiliated by you."
Mrs. Xu was a little flustered and didn't know how to deal with it.
At this moment, a young servant shouted: "The master is here."
The noisy square fell silent in an instant, and when everyone looked around, they saw a young man and a middle-aged man walking towards them.
Although many of them have never met Lin Xuan, they have heard about Lin Xuan, and Bo Yuan can be called the head of the hospital, and he is so young, his identity is self-evident.
"I've seen He Daru and the masters, but I don't know why they are still not seated. Could it be that there is something wrong with the hospitality?" Lin Xuan asked with a gentle smile on his face.
Except for He Yu, everyone present saluted back.
After all, Lin Xuan has a noble title and is a son-in-law. No matter what they think, the courtesy he should have is indispensable.
"Master Hou, we traveled thousands of miles to communicate with Boyuan Academy, but Boyuan Academy intentionally humiliated us. How dare you ask Lord Hou what this means?" An old man who was as thin as a stick said out loud.
"Humiliation?" Lin Xuan said with some differences: "How do you say that?"
"Isn't it a humiliation for Lord Hou to arrange us to sit on the right?"
Lin Xuan smiled lightly, and said: "This competition is a grand event, and I have invited some people to watch it. So, are you all satisfied?"
"I don't know who the Marquis invited?"
Just as Lin Xuan was about to answer, a servant came running over and said, "Master, Your Majesty is here, and the carriage is about to arrive at the mountain gate."
"Everyone, please wait a moment, this Marquis is going to meet His Majesty." Lin Xuan said with a smile.
Hold on?
I'll wait for you, sir!
How dare they not greet Li Shimin when he comes, when the time comes to punish them for a crime of disrespect, there is no comparison.
Even He Yu, who had always been calm and calm, didn't dare to continue to pretend at this time. He didn't need anyone to support him at all, and he walked like a brisk walk.
When everyone came to the gate of the academy, Li Shimin's bicycle frame had already reached the gate.
"See Your Majesty." Everyone bowed and saluted in unison.
Li Shimin came out of the carriage, waved his hands, and said, "Excuse me."
Only then did everyone straighten up, and He Yu and others found that not only Li Shimin was coming, but also Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and others got off the carriage behind them.
They looked at each other, a look of seriousness flashed across their faces.
They didn't hear the news of Li Shimin's arrival.
"After I finished my morning court, I heard that there was a competition in Boyuan Academy today. I just happened to have nothing to do, so I came to take a look." Li Shimin laughed.
"It's my honor to be here, Your Majesty, please." Lin Xuan cupped his hands and said.
Li Shimin nodded and entered the academy first.
As early as when Lin Xuan and the others were saluting, Li Junxian brought the forbidden army into the academy.
At this time, the academy can be described as three steps, one post, five steps and one post.
When they came to the square, Li Shimin naturally sat in the uppermost position, and Fang Xuanling and other ministers were below.
Lin Xuan also saw generals such as Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong in it.
This time, the people from the academy didn't make trouble, and sat down honestly on the right side.
Lin Xuan led a group of masters from Boyuan Academy and sat on the left.
"It's been a long time since there has been such a grand cultural event in the Tang Dynasty. I am very relieved. This time I just came to see it. You can compete on your own." Li Shimin said.
