I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 112 The Police Pillow Pavilion

Song Mu and Song Liangda chatted, and after drinking the pot of tea, they went back to their rooms to rest.

This night Song Liangda slept comfortably and happily, feeling that the burden on his heart had been lifted, and every day in the future would be very light.

Song Mu was lying in the room thinking about it for a long time, rubbing the two cultural tourmalines in his hands, and felt that the mission on his shoulders was even more heavy at this moment.

Perhaps this means that with great power comes great responsibility.

Song Mu comforted himself in his heart, put away his things, and fell asleep.

On the second day, Song Mu got up early, helped the family with some things, got up and went out after having breakfast, and went straight to the direction of the county school.

Although Song Mu's study in the county school is over now, he has been used to going to the county school when he goes out, so Song Mu is walking fast.

Before reaching the gate of the county school, Song Mu could see the log pavilion on the roof of the county school from a distance. It seems that painting has started today and the final work is being done.

Master Xun gave the scholars and the children three days off, and they are all at home at the moment.

So now that Song Mu came to the county school, although there are many scholars here, most of them are Confucian students who have not yet passed the entrance examination for Tongsheng.

When Song Mu came in, there was no one at the gate of the county school, but when he reached the courtyard, he ran into an old acquaintance.

That is Qi Dazuo, the second son of the Qi family.

The other party was wearing a blue satin robe today, and he was talking to some Confucian scholars in the courtyard at the moment. He caught sight of Song Mu who was walking into the gate, but turned around at the moment, and suddenly a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Song Mu watched the other person walking towards him slowly, then took out another pink satin fan from nowhere, and showed it in front of Song Mu, and then he still cupped his hands in a dignified manner.

Song Mu hurriedly responded, but the other party said while holding his throat.

"It turned out to be the head of the case in Song Dynasty. I haven't seen him for a long time, but now he is even more energetic."

Song Mu didn't understand the other party's words at the moment, but one of the other party's followers had already come up to talk, and Qi Dazuo still looked a little indifferent. He looked at Song Mu for a while, and then suddenly spoke.

"Brother Song is now a scholar, but I have some news, I think it's better for Brother Song to know."

Although Qi Dazuo was somewhat respectful on the surface, there was still some yin and yang in his tone.

"My elder brother is back from Chang'an now, and he will come to the county journal tomorrow to be the deputy principal of our county school. You will also be called master when the time comes."

Song Mu thought the other party was going to say something, and there was a strange expression on his face.

What does his elder brother's being an associate student have to do with him, and he will go to the government to study in a few days, and Qi Dazuo is still so ignorant...

However, seeing Song Mu's expression, Qi Dazuo thought that Song Mu didn't care. He closed his fan as if he had stepped on a dog's tail, and then puffed up his chest, speaking quite arrogantly.

"I also made it clear to you today. From now on, let's reciprocate. Don't gossip about me. We are friends too. Brother Song, what do you think?"

Song Mu didn't know for a while whether Qi Dazuo was threatening him or wooing him, but at the moment he just felt that the other party's words were a little inexplicable.

Looking around at the moment, Song Mu still smiled and cupped his hands, ignored the other party, and then walked away directly.

Qi Dazuo wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the people next to him, and one of the Confucian scholars hurriedly spoke to Qi Dazuo at this moment.

"Brother, it's useless for you to talk to him about this. He is the head of the case. You forgot that if you top ten in the college exam, you can enter the government school."

"Yes, he will study in Fucheng in the future."

Hearing these words, Qi Dazuo seemed to have suddenly realized. At this moment, his face was full of disbelief, and he was even a little embarrassed.

Seeing that the people around him looked at him with uncontrollable laughter, Qi Dazuo's face suddenly became gloomy.

Then he drove away the crowd angrily, and even murmured angrily.

"So what if you go to a government school, I will also be able to enter a government school next time."

Qi Dazuo muttered in the courtyard, while Song Mu came all the way to the attic of the county school.

There are still many craftsmen busy here, most of whom are doing delicate work. Song Mu stopped here for a while, and then a figure came forward.

It was Master Xun.

"Master."

When Song Mu saw Master Xun, he also bowed his hands quickly, but Master Xun waved his hands, and then looked at the attic in front of him with his back propped up, with a smile on his face at the moment.

"Song Mu, why did you come to the county school today? These two days, the family should be very busy, right?"

Song Mu nodded: "The students got up early, so they also wanted to come to the county school to have a look."

Saying this, Song Mu remembered what Qi Dazuo said just now, and said it now.

"Master, does our county school want an assistant principal?"

Hearing this, Master Xun glanced at Song Mu, then turned his head to look at the attic in front of him and nodded.

"That's right, the eldest son of the Qi family, the other party came back from Chang'an a few days ago, his old man somehow got him this job, and I just received the letter."

Saying this, Master Xun shook his head with a rather embarrassed expression on his face.

"The eldest son of the Qi family is only in his thirties now, and he was also a well-known figure in our Shiyang County back then. Originally, the old man of his family expected him to be a Jinshi this year, and he would also go out to be the county magistrate when the time came, and bring the Qi family more Go up a floor."

"But it seems that the colorful world is charming. A young man with some talents has only been out for a year. Not only has he not achieved fame, but he has also been injured by alcohol and sex."

"There is also the tame beast that I bought from nowhere. I heard that Mr. Qi is still drinking medicine."

Song Mu didn't expect Master Xun to talk to himself about the internal cause of this matter at this moment, and there was still a bit of emotion and helplessness on his face at this moment.

Song Mu raised his head, but he happened to meet Master Xun's gaze.

"Song Mu, you are ashamed of arrogance and lust. You are the head of the case now, and there are many people watching you. You must be cautious in your words and deeds, study hard, understand?"

Master Xun used this incident to sound the alarm to Song Mu. Song Mu's heart was bright at the moment, and he bowed his hands respectfully.

"Students take note."

Master Xun nodded, then patted his sleeves, but changed the subject.

"Speaking of which, the attic has already been completed. The county magistrate named it the Police Pillow Pavilion, which means that scholars should study hard with round wooden police pillows."

Song Mu was stunned when he heard the name, and for no reason he thought of the "Dianzhen Building" built by the later poet Xin Qiji in Chuzhou. Although the words "Jingzhen" and "Dianzhen" both have the word "pillow", their meanings are completely different.

One is to let scholars study hard, and the other is to show that the people live and work in peace and contentment.

However, the construction of pavilions and pavilions since ancient times also has many meanings. I only hope that this meaning can be remembered by more people and work hard for it.

"Let's go, let's go up to the attic and take a look. The wall where the words are written is reserved for you."

After saying that, Master Xun stepped forward, and Song Mu was also moved when he heard that, and went up to the attic together.

The attic, which was built in January, exudes a strong woody fragrance at the moment. It is still being carved inside, and it is a little messy, but it already has a good view.

Song Mu climbed up to the attic, and the windows on all sides faced the four sides of the city. The so-called climbing high and looking far away, compared with the day when Song Mu climbed on the roof of the county school, today's place looks more open and magnificent. ,
Just a glance, the world in front of you, and the mountains and rivers in the distance are all in sight, it is truly beautiful.

"This scenery, presumably in the future, this will be another famous place on the Ganshui River."

Master Xun also stood in front of the pane and looked out, feeling a sigh from the bottom of his heart.
