Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    ? Imperial Capital City, Chunjiang Fang in the east of the city.

    Lu Yu and Li Si were wandering on the street.

    They are all wearing ordinary scholar brocade clothes, coupled with their young faces, their appearance is the same as that of the students who came to the imperial capital to study, there is not much difference.

    No one would have thought that the master of the emperor and the cabinet scholar would appear in this place in a white dragon fish suit.

    Although Lu Yu and Li Si are well-known, their real faces are rarely seen. In addition, they have strength and do not need the protection of followers at all. Therefore, walking in the crowd will not attract the attention of others at all.

    Now it is midnight, but there are stalls set up on both sides of the street early on. The candlelight reflected by the lanterns dispels the darkness, and the sound of hawking and talking and laughing is mixed in the whole street, making it very lively.

    "Since His Majesty lifted the curfew and allowed business in various places, the business environment of the entire imperial capital has been greatly improved, and there is a little more fireworks at night."

    Looking at the lights of thousands of houses at night, Li Si couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion.

    If it was in the past, the curfew would have been early at this time, where would there be such a lively scene?

    Li Si didn't expect that Lu Yu could think so meticulously that he would cancel the curfew and open the night market completely at the same time.

    The lively night market shuttles between the streets, making the night sky a little warmer.

    Lu Yu looked back and forth, and he looked more carefully.

    While the two were talking, Lu Yu stopped in front of a booth.

    The stall makes rice cakes, which are steaming hot. The glutinous rice is cut into powder, mashed and put into a container, steamed slowly with hot air, and then dipped in bean paste.

    "Old man, how do you sell rice cakes?" Lu Yu smiled.

    The rice cake seller was an old man who looked quite old, with dark skin and a face full of vicissitudes.  However, both hands were very clean. Hearing Lu Yu's question, he habitually wiped his hands with a towel.

    "Twenty spirit stones and one piece."

    When the old man saw someone coming, a simple and honest smile appeared on his face.

    Li Si frowned: "I'm afraid this is a bit expensive. I remember that this piece of rice cake was only a piece of Wulingshi a few years ago."

    The old man nodded quickly and said with a naive smile: "You two little brothers don't know something. The prices have soared a while ago. It is difficult to buy raw materials for rice cakes like mine. Even steamed buns have risen to 30 spirit stones. It's just that the imperial court has recently cracked down on several big things.  Grain merchants, let the prices fall back, but the raw materials are still quite expensive, and this is already the price after the drop.¡±

    Lu Yu thoughtfully, nodded and said, "Please give me two yuan, old man."

    "Okay, the two young brothers seem to be students from the nearby Yuding Branch?" The old man quickly took out the rice cakes from the container, and then dipped them in bean paste.

    Lu Yu asked suspiciously: "Yuding branch?"

    Li Sidao on the side: "Too many people want to join Yuding Academy now. The academy has been expanded now, and a branch is opened in the Imperial Capital, which is nearby."

    Lu Yu nodded, which was expected.

    The emperor was born in Yuding Academy, and even the fact that Lu Yu gave a sermon in the academy that day, and made 30,000 students become selection officials, has made the prosperity of Yuding Academy a certainty.

    Today's Yuding Academy has a tendency to surpass Guozijian.

    Lu Yu didn't answer the old man's words, but smiled lightly: "We are indeed students of Yuding Academy."

    "Let me just say, looking at the two young ages, I think they are also young and promising talents."

    While smiling, the old man put the finished rice cake in the lotus leaf with both hands, and then sent it to Lu Yu
