On the tenth day of April, early in the morning, the imperial city sent people to Wutong Lane to pick up Jiang Mu to inspect the Jixia Academy.

A team of imperial guards stood outside the courtyard, facing the strong wind.

Jiang Mu was not anxious or slow, and slowly ate his meal. After the meal, Jiang Mu slowly went out. As soon as he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and looked at Li Zhifu who was burning fire, and asked, "Do you want to go to the academy together?"

"I don't like to go." Li Zhifu refused, "I made an appointment with a worker today to renovate the roof. Didn't you see the leaking tiles on the roof? I don't know how you lived there!"

Jiang Mu shrugged and turned away from the yard.

Li Zhifu seemed to be obsessed with the activity of renovating the yard. He has never stopped since he moved in, and he looked like he would never give up until he changed the yard to a palace.

Jiang Mu was used to it, and he had to admit that after Li Zhifu's transformation during this period, he felt more comfortable living in this house, and he felt inexplicably more of a sense of belonging.

As for the money, he really doesn't feel heartbroken now.

Li Zhifu is really particular about spending money. If a penny comes to her, she will be broken into two cents.

The renovation project of Jixia Academy has been completed for several days.

It was silent, no one seemed to pay attention.

But some people who are interested noticed that the 500 imperial guards who were originally stationed in Jixia Academy did not retreat, but instead added 3,000 imperial guards to go up the mountain.

Jixia Academy is located on the largest mountain in Lin'an City. It has no idea what its original name is, and no one has ever studied it. However, this mountain is really high.

In this April day, the whole mountain turned pink. From a distance, the mountain was hidden among the peach blossoms in the sky, as if it was straight through the sky. On the side of the mountain, the newly renovated academy seemed very quiet.

The gate of the academy was also built. The small wooden board was replaced with a white marble gate of more than meter high. It was carefully crafted and very majestic.

The book houses, dormitories, etc. were all replaced with brand new ones, and there were no dead grass on the ground. The corridors and transportation were like a house, which was very luxurious and large. Jiang Mu was wondering if it took him several years to measure how big the academy was.

Under the guidance of an imperial guard, Jiang Mu came to a rain-covering corridor. A team of imperial guards calmed down under the rain-covering corridor. In the middle were Emperors of Wei Qin Zhao and Qin Wanli, and the two were cooking tea.

As soon as Jiang Mu came up, Qin Zhao saw it and shouted directly: "Jiang Qing, come here to have tea and taste my skills."

Jiang Mu was not pretentious either, so he took his seat directly.

The chief supervisor Wushe hurriedly poured Jiang Mu a cup of tea. Jiang Mu thanked him and started to taste it. In fact, he didn't know how to taste tea, but he just liked drinking tea, but couldn't drink it well or bad.

However, the emperor still had to give some face and said, "Good tea, good craftsmanship!"

Qin Zhao smiled and asked, "Jiang Qing, are you satisfied with the renovation of this academy?"

"Far beyond expectations."

Jiang Mu was very sincere. He originally wanted to make up for it casually, as long as it didn't look so sloppy, but obviously, Qin Zhao took this matter to heart.

Qin Zhao slowly stood up, walked to the rain corridor, looked at the flying snow, and said, "I built this academy specifically for you, Jiang Qing, so this academy can only be used by you, Jiang Qing!"

Jiang Mu stood up and asked, "Your Majesty, what's going on?"

Qin Wanli also stood up and the three of them walked side by side in the rain corridor.

Qin Zhao said: "All the major families have sent people to Lin'an City. They are not from the head of the family, but also people who can represent the clan. The Shandong gentry has all come without exception."

Qin Wanli said: "These aristocratic families are here to put pressure on them. President Jiang, tomorrow, you have to fight for your breath!"

Jiang Mu nodded.

He is a sensible person.

Naturally, I know why these families are so influential.

On the surface, this time it was his battle with Cheng Yi, but it was actually a confrontation between the imperial power and the aristocratic family. He and Cheng Yi were an open confrontation between the imperial power and the aristocratic family.

If he wins, the emperor will definitely take a step forward and take the opportunity to oppress the aristocratic families to give up some benefits. If Cheng Yi wins, the major aristocratic families will definitely join forces to put pressure on the emperor to give up some benefits.

Lin'an, Zhao's Mansion.

Zhao Mingcheng had just visited several famous scholars from the Shandong gentry. After returning home, he immediately found Zhao Ting and said, "Dad, the people from the Shandong gentry decided to go to Jixia Academy tomorrow. Are we going?"

Zhao Ting stood in the corridor, looking at the wind and snow all over the sky, and said, "What's the news over Jiang Mu?"

"Jiang Mu went up the mountain early this morning." Zhao Mingcheng said.

"Tomorrow, you can go!" Zhao Ting said.

"Dad, aren't you going?" Zhao Mingcheng said in confusion.

"Never the heads of major families will go."

Zhao Mingcheng was stunned for a moment and suddenly said, "Enter the palace?"

Zhao Ting nodded and said, "No matter what the outcome will be tomorrow? We should all be in the palace."

Zhao Mingcheng chuckled and said, "What else can be achieved? Dad, do you think Jiang Mu is likely to win?"

Zhao Ting sighed lightly: "If it were just Jiang Mu, I don't think he could win, but our Majesty is not an ordinary person!"

…………

Jixia Academy, outside the gate.

Jiang Mu sent Qin Zhao into the carriage. Qin Zhao lifted the curtain and said, "Jiang Qing, all I can do is this. I will hold back the major families, but the major families will also hold back me. I can handle the outside affairs, but... the outcome is only up to you!"

Jiang Mu smiled slightly and bowed, "Your Majesty is waiting for the news."

"Then I, wait for the good news!"

Qin Wanli patted Jiang Mu on the shoulder and said, "Director Jiang, I will take the people from the worship pavilion to stop the masters of the aristocratic families. However, in the academic dispute, I can't help the old man!"

Jiang Mu nodded and said, "As long as senior Qin can block external factors and make tomorrow's academy a clean competition platform!"

…………

In the evening, wind broke out again in Wutong Lane.

Fortunately, there are not many renovations, and they have been renovated early.

Li Zhifu changed into academy teaching costumes, walked out of the door with a sword, and when he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and told Luli: "You have to take a look at your home, and we will all live here in the future."

"Miss, don't worry, Luncheon will be optimistic."

Li Zhifu nodded and slowly walked out the door. A gust of wind and snow blew, wrapping her around it. This set of white academy robe was sewn by Jiang Mu instructed people to follow Li Zhifu's figure and just fit.

Wearing a white dress, a feathered crown, and a pair of wind-strolling shoes,

Facing the wind and snow, the style reappears,

This is the real Yi'an lay Buddhist.

The alley is covered with peach blossoms, but Li Zhifu stepped on the petals, leaving a row of footprints, as deep as the same.

Suddenly, she stopped.

In the darkness, someone walked over the opposite side of the alley towards the hazy peach blossoms.
Chapter completed!
