    Tongyifang East Drum Tower Street is the most prosperous street in the capital of Chang'an, except Zhuque Street.

    On both sides of the street, there are clouds of warehouses and numerous restaurants.

    Many time-honored brands have even existed since the middle of the previous dynasty.

    It has survived for hundreds of years and is famous throughout the country.

    Even if it is an ordinary day here, there are still crowds of people and a constant flow.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????: The world's richest scholars hang out here, a real place where every inch of land is worth every inch of money.

    The Drum Tower in the middle of the street has majestic red walls and cornices facing the wind. It is grand in scale and majestic.

    Tell the time day and night for the people of the entire sacred city.

    The market closes at the second watch and opens at the fifth watch, making it a city that never sleeps.

    What¡¯s even more rare is that on the north side of the Drum Tower is the location of the Imperial College.

    Even in the busy city, you can still hear the sound of reading in the distance.

    To this worldly place, the fragrance of books and ink is added.

    Today is the Lantern Festival, and the Imperial College will have a day off. All the supervisors will be free today, and they will go out of prison to spend the Lantern Festival with the people in the city.

    The supervisors are the main force in guessing lantern riddles tonight. Of course, they are also the main force in solving lantern riddles

    ?????????????????????? Tonight there will be many lively rich and powerful ladies, disguised as men and going out to have fun.

    If you like someone, recruiting him as your son-in-law is also a rare story of a talented man and a beautiful woman.

    With such introductions, today will become more and more lively.

    Can't wait until the night, and the city is full of joy and bustle.

    Jia Cong and Ni Er came from Xicheng in a carriage.

    The carriage was not considered luxurious, not to mention compared with Jia Baoyu's chariot, even compared with Jia Huan's chariot.

    With two people on board, there is not much room left.

    But this is also Aunt Ni¡¯s intention.

    She felt sorry for Ni Er, who was recovering from his serious injury, and also felt sorry for Jia Cong's noble status.

    Neither of them wanted to disobey this kind old woman

    It¡¯s just that when the carriage reaches the corner of Gulou Street, it can no longer go in.

    Because the streets are full of people and crowded, let alone horse-drawn carriages, it would be nice for pedestrians to have a place to stay.

    If it were a carriage belonging to a powerful person, pedestrians might still give way.

    But an ordinary carriage would be overturned if someone entered it.

    ??Since ancient times, no matter which dynasty or generation, everyone has the temperament of the people and is the best.

    ¡°And most of them have complicated relationships after their death, and I don¡¯t know which prince¡¯s house or government house they will be involved with.

    For ordinary people who don¡¯t follow the rules, they don¡¯t know what avoidance means.

    So when they arrived at the west end of the street, Jia Cong and Ni Er got out of the carriage and followed the crowd inside.

    This is the most prosperous place in Shenjing City, with a wide variety of goods sold in various warehouses on both sides of the street.

    Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all available.

    Restaurants and teahouses are also overcrowded.

    Although there were not many tourists from other provinces in this era, the entire Shenjing City was still filled with traveling scholars, officials and wealthy businessmen from all over the country.

    After passing several tea houses and taverns in a row, he found that they were all full. Ni Er slapped his forehead and said angrily: "It's all my fault for being such a stupid person. I didn't even think of booking a seat in advance.

    It will make the young master no longer have a place to stay"

    Jia Cong didn't mind. He narrowed his bright eyes and looked carefully at the people coming and going on the street. He chuckled and said, "What are you doing making a reservation? Just watch on the street. You can't see clearly in a teahouse"  ¡­¡±

    Ni Er still blamed himself, but his mother repeatedly told him not to wrong Jia Cong.

    Jia Cong glanced at him and said, "Brother Ni, I still need to save some money at the moment.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????? After Shihantang becomes famous, you will have big things to do over there, and you will be able to use your money.

    At this time, we have not yet reached the time to enjoy the blessings.  "

    As soon as Ni Er heard that he had something to do, and he felt that Jia Cong was really capable of doing big things, he immediately beamed with joy and said over and over again: "Okay, okay, I will listen to the young master, I will listen to the young master"

    Jia Cong followed the crowd for dozens of steps along the street, and finally at the corner of an intersection, he saw a large three-story Zhulou across the street.

    There is a plaque on the main entrance of Zhulou with three large gilt characters:

    Shihantang!

    Just looking at the mottled paint and dim characters on the door plaque, it is clear that this Zhulou has been around for quite some time.

    Compared to the bustle of the surrounding shops,On the outside, there were only a few tourists visiting Shihan Hall.

    Occasionally, someone "enters by mistake" and can't stay in there for more than a cup of tea, and will come out in a hurry.

    The complexion is still not good-looking.

    Jia Cong and Ni Er stood across the street. Seeing this scene, Ni Er said: "This building is the old property of the Lin family. He has been opening a bookstore here since his great ancestor.

    But I have never made any money, and I have been losing money over the years.

    There were a lot of family members who had been in their homes before, and they could still be lost.

    Now alas!

    Without a young master, we won¡¯t be able to survive much longer.  "

    Jia Cong smiled and said, "It's not too late now."

    As he spoke, he looked towards the north of the intersection. Not far from here, a tall archway covered with bright yellow glazed tiles stood tall.

    The sun shines brightly, and it is dazzling.

    Even hundreds of steps away, you can clearly see the three golden characters on the archway:

    Imperial College!

    "Brother Ni, are everything arranged properly?"

    Jia Cong asked again.

    Ni Er hurriedly said: "Don't worry, sir, Qiu San and his people have practiced many times.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the way"

    Ni Erhua just looked at the crowds of people on the street, his heart was pounding and his palms were sweating.

    ¡°He is not a good-for-nothing guy who can¡¯t get on the stage. He used to make a living by putting money in gambling stalls and collecting money, which is no longer a small matter.

    But how can those compare to what is happening today?

    ¡°That day, I just relied on the power of a few government officials to lend money to some gamblers and earn some gray income, but today

    But you want to be famous all over the world!

    Just thinking about what was going to happen for a while, and being able to control someone who in the past didn't even bother to talk to him, and who even looked at him as dirty, in the palm of his hand, Ni Er couldn't help but tremble.

    "Cang!"

    "Cang!"

    "Cang!"

    At this moment, the melodious drum tower bell rang.

    The crowd burst into cheers, but Ni Er was even more excited than them. He suppressed his voice and shouted to Jia Cong: "Sir, it's time for morning classes at the Imperial College, and the students are taking a break!"

    Jia Cong, however, still looked calm and nodded slightly, saying, "Well, just follow the plan."

    ¡­¡­

    The Imperial Academy was named after the Imperial Academy from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Han Dynasty a thousand years ago.

    Throughout the entire feudal dynasty, this was the location of the highest official institution of learning in all dynasties. Not all scholars were qualified to study there.

    Even in the middle of the previous dynasty when the threshold was the lowest, at least the status of a juren was required. After failing the examination, coming to the Imperial College to sit in prison was the so-called juren.

    In this dynasty, in addition to the imperial prisons, although in name there were tribute prisons and regular prisons, in essence, they still fell into the shadow prisons.

    The so-called yin prison refers to the children of civilian officials above the seventh rank, as well as the children of military attach¨¦s above the third rank and honorary relatives. After passing the examination, they can study in prison.

    Of course, this kind of assessment is much easier than the real entrance examination for children, and it is far less valuable than the provincial examination, which is more valuable than the national examination.

    However, after the prisoner's karma, Yin Jiansheng can directly participate in the township test, or you can wait for the officials directly.

    ???????????? For this reason, in the Imperial College, most of the supervisors who came from Jujian looked down upon the officials¡¯ children who came from Yinjian.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Most of the second-generation children who were born in Yinjian looked down on the children of poor families who were poor and failed in examinations, so they often had conflicts.

    Of course, this is all for later.

    No matter what, in the eyes of the world, the Imperial College is a first-class, noble and even sacred place for reading.

    And the supervisors are all disciples of the emperor.

    From now on, everyone will be an official.

    Their status in the hearts of ordinary people is extremely high. Therefore, when the bell of the Drum Tower rang, and after a cup of tea, groups of supervisors wearing Confucian shirts and Qingjin came out of the Grand Archway of the Imperial College, the Drum Tower Street was flooded with people.  The surging people burst into enthusiastic cheers after a brief silence.

    ¡°After all, in today¡¯s very lively lantern markets such as Gulou Street and Zhuque Street, the supervisors of the Imperial College are all the protagonists of guessing lantern riddles.

    Like a star from later generations.

    No matter how reserved and arrogant these proud men are in normal times, when faced with such a welcoming scene, they all showed approachable smiles and bowed in response from afar.

    Naturally, there was another burst of cheers.

    Wherever the Imperial College students were walking, passers-by kept out of their way for fear of "offending beauties".

    However, just as the over one hundred supervisors were walking elegantly to the intersection of Gulou Street and were about to be dispersed to various places in Shenjing, an accident suddenly happened

    ¡­¡­(remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com)Pedestrians gave way in succession, fearing that they would "offend the beautiful woman".

    However, just as the over one hundred supervisors were walking elegantly to the intersection of Gulou Street and were about to be dispersed to various places in Shenjing, an accident suddenly happened
