Bringing the courtyard through [delicate] lady killed like crazy

Chapter 152 Qingshan Academy

The street in front of Wangque Tower is very spacious.

There are rows of shops on both sides of the road, with many different signs hanging on them, but they are all closed now.

There were no street vendors, and no lingering aroma of rice in the air.

There are many children playing on the street.

Looking at the children running around and playing in the street, Censor Li frowned subconsciously.

What if someone passes by on horseback or in a carriage and hurts these children?

He looked around, trying to find the children's parents, but found only two young women at an open gate.

He walked over and wanted to ask the parents of these children.

I suddenly thought of something on the way, and my chest felt uncomfortable. These children...

Could it be that they are all orphans of the Yuncheng disaster?

His eyes fell on the children again, filled with compassion, pity, heartache, and complexity...

He saw a child running too fast and falling forward, with his head about to hit the ground and blood splattering on the spot.

He didn't have time to react and rushed towards the child, but he ignored the fact that he didn't know how to use Qinggong...

"Hahahaha..." The little girl's bell-like laughter brought back Censor Li's soul.

He stood up stiffly with the help of a gray-haired old man and looked in the direction where the laughter came from.

The little girl who was about to fall came out in the arms of a young woman, smiled and ran away again...

Qingdai had a wooden face and tiptoed back to the entrance of Qingshan Academy...

This is the punishment they get for putting the girl in danger...

She would rather be whipped, really...

Censor Li: ...

"Brother, are you here to stay in the pedestrian street? I'm sorry to have to make fun of you with these naughty kids. They will go back to the academy for class soon and won't make noise for long." The silver-haired old man stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the children on the street with a smile on his lips.

Unlike the dark faces of his two disciples, his eyes were full of happiness and satisfaction.

Of course, what satisfied him was not being the teacher of this group of troublemakers, but seeing his two apprentices again.

What satisfied them was that the two disciples followed an extremely good master...

Censor Li turned around and bowed his hands to thank them: "Thank you for your help, brother! May I ask why these children are gathered here? Where are their relatives?"

"They are here for classes." Elder Qing pointed to the courtyard next to him and said, "This is Yuncheng's temporary primary school. All children of Yuncheng's age will be sent here to learn to read and write. I will temporarily serve as their teacher.

Their parents are busy with their own things, and the weather is not very hot this morning, so the children will be free for a while, and the class will start soon. "

He pointed at Qingdai and Qingyou and said, "Those two are my disciples. With them watching over them, these kids won't get hurt."

Censor Li opened his mouth for a moment, but didn't know what to ask next.

The sound of wheels rutting in the distance behind him reminded him of what he was going to say.

But before she could say anything, she saw another young woman flying over and standing under a wooden sign on the side of the road.

He raised his hand towards the carriage approaching from afar, "This is the pedestrian street of Yuncheng. Passengers must dismount and walk!"

Elder Qing explained to Li Yushi: "There are several places in Yuncheng where vehicles and horses cannot pass. This pedestrian street is one of them, and the academy under construction in the south of the city is also one of them. However, the ban on this street will be lifted in the future and it will become a speed limit. Now it is just to ensure the safety of the children."

Li Yushi had nothing to say...

He took his servant with him and chose an inn near the academy.

The door of the inn was wide open, and the waiter inside greeted them warmly when he saw them.

As you enter the door, there is a basin of ice in the hall, and you can feel the coolness coming from it.

He raised his eyebrows. Ice was a precious commodity and it was only used in his house when the summer heat was unbearable.

This inn looks unremarkable from the outside, but there is actually a pot of this in the hall...

There were not many people in the hall, only a few waiters and the two of them. The nobleman who got off the carriage did not choose this inn.

But the candlelight in the hall was very bright, illuminating the sincere smiles on everyone's face.

The waiter led them to a long counter, and the waiter standing behind it said he wanted to check their IDs, register them, and then asked them what kind of room they wanted.

There are king-size rooms, twin rooms, suites, double suites...

He requested a double suite. He was old and had trouble sleeping...

After completing the registration, the waiter gave them their room keys and even gave them a booklet which introduced and mapped several attractions in Yuncheng.

Holding a booklet in his hand, Censor Li followed the servant who had welcomed them in earlier, walked through a corridor, and came to the gate of a courtyard.

The servant boy went forward to open the door, and the lock rang out. At the same time, a long and distant clang clang clang sounded...

next door.

The waiter smiled and explained, "This is the bell for Qingshan Academy. When the bell rings, it's time for the children to play freely and they have to go back to the yard. And other shops on the street can open one after another."

The door opens.

What comes into view is a clean and tidy small hall with an empty basin on a flower table in the hall.

The waiter smiled and explained, "It's hot and dry in Yuncheng. Please wait a moment. The ice will be here soon. The ice at the back has melted. Please go to the front hall and let us know. New ice will be delivered."

As he finished speaking, a waiter came in carrying a thick cotton bag. When the bag was opened, crystal clear ice cubes rolled out and filled the empty basin on the flower table.

The stuffiness in the room was instantly dispelled...

"This..." The servant couldn't help but open his mouth wide and asked, "Isn't Yuncheng dry? How come there is so much ice?"

The waiter's smile widened, and although he bowed slightly, his back was straight. He said, "Yuncheng was dry, but now there is water, right? With water, we can make ice. It will relieve the heat in Yuncheng."

Censor Li was surprised. Ice making...

Is this another incident that Yuncheng reported while he was on the road?

Is this the work of that county lord again?

He couldn't wait to open the book in his hand...

So he opened...

The booklet is thin, with colorful pictures and black fonts.

He introduced all the things they considered to be secrets, which were more numerous and detailed than what he had seen in the imperial study in the capital.

Moreover, there are places to visit, but they require tickets.

The ticket is not cheap, it costs ten taels of silver per person, and you can only look.

But how can this thing be exhibited casually?

After seeing the booklet, Censor Li was so angry that he almost fainted.

All the ministers in the capital were racking their brains to come to Yuncheng, and His Majesty arranged the affairs of Yuncheng at a small meeting. He suffered a lot along the way and made a private visit in disguise.

Now you tell me you open your doors for everyone to visit?

Censor Li was panting, his brain was lacking oxygen, and stars were appearing in his eyes.
