There was nothing new in the wine-offering speech. He just told the students to study hard and not to live up to His Majesty’s expectations, the support of the court, and the expectations of the people.

Li Ang and others yawned in the audience. It was not until the end of the speech that the priest paused and asked the students to pay attention to safety in the near future.

If you encounter something that is suspected of abnormality, or someone or something that is suspected of being strange, you must report it to the Town and Academy as soon as possible. Don't show off.

If you are involved in a sudden change, send a signal first and wait for rescue - the academy will issue alarm talismans and portable fireworks (similar to cloud-penetrating arrows) to the disciples later.

Some students in the audience immediately became energetic.

Li Ang pricked up his ears and listened to the low-pitched discussion coming from the front row.

"What do you mean by offering sacrifices to wine? Telling us to pay attention to safety? This is Chang'an..."

"Could it be that the changes have become more frequent again? There were similar contents in previous speeches, but the tone has never been so strong."

"Why don't you ask His Highness the King of Yue? He may have some news."

"Forget it, let's not go. If the matter is not serious, asking is in vain. If the matter is serious, His Highness the King of Yue will not be able to reveal it to you."

...

After the wine ceremony ended the new semester speech, the students in the square gradually dispersed.

Li Ang looked at the square where the crowd was thinning out and frowned slightly.

I always feel that something is wrong.

————

One of the differences between the Academy and other ordinary colleges is the intensive personnel changes.

In the spring semester of the new year, many of the teaching doctors in the academy have changed people - some doctors have to work on their own projects and research, and some are because the previous teaching doctors have returned from other places, and they can finally relieve themselves of their heavy burdens and temporarily

Take some rest.

The impact on freshmen is relatively small, and the list of teachers has not changed much.

In order to test the students' self-study status during the winter vacation, the first few days of the new semester were full of exams in various subjects.

"No winter vacation homework is better than winter vacation homework."

After the National History Examination, Li Ang sat in his seat and muttered: "Fortunately, there is no direct competition between the Academy and the Imperial Academy, otherwise there might be a joint examination between multiple schools..."

"The people from the Imperial College think so."

Ji Linglang, who was sitting in front, turned around and said with a smile: "If I can defeat the academy disciples in the same test paper, I will be able to brag about myself for a long time after I go out."

"Some people really do this."

Yang Yu thought for a while and said: "I heard that students in the Imperial College will secretly collect exam papers leaked from the academy, answer the papers secretly by themselves, and finally see if their scores exceed the academy average.

If you can surpass and be ranked at the forefront of the academy, you will be able to prove that you are good enough. It will also be very convenient to find the official records of Chang'an dignitaries to seek official positions."

Li Ang complained: "...So what we are making now are Huanggang rolls and Haidian rolls?"

Li Wei didn't know why and asked curiously: "What is that?"

"Nothing, just an adjective."

Li Ang waved his hand, and Yang Yu and others blinked their eyes without delving into it - Li Ang often said some unfamiliar and harsh words, and after being together for a long time, they became accustomed to it.

Tap tap tap.

The sound of footsteps came closer and closer. Yang Yu and Li Wei stood up nervously and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness."

"Just call me Leling."

After a winter vacation, Li Leling felt much better and her face looked rosy.

Yang Yu and Li Wei nodded in agreement. Li Leling's eyes turned to Li Ang and hesitantly said: "Li Ang...classmate, can you go out and have a chat?"

"Okay."

Li Ang was a little confused, but he still stood up and followed him out of the classroom to the flower bed behind the supervising building.

"Princess...cough,"

Li Ang coughed and asked, "What does Leling have to do with me?"

"Well..."

Li Leling pretended to admire the colorful flowers in the flower bed, and said cautiously: "Um, does Cuiqiao hate me?"

"Ah?"

Li Ang blinked, thinking about the various questions the other party might ask.

Including academic, medical, and even recruiting Li Ang for her royal brother - no matter which royal brother it is.

But I really haven’t thought about this issue.

Li Ang thought for a while and replied: "Well, she doesn't hate Her Highness the Princess."

Although Chai Chai doesn't like to think deeply, she has a simple and rigorous logic in her heart about who are the good guys and the bad guys.

He has extremely keen and accurate judgment about who is a flatterer and who is a true friend - it can also be explained as the intuition of a small animal.

"Then why did she refuse to come when I invited her to the palace?"

Li Leling tilted her head slightly and asked softly: "And I'm not willing to say why."

"This is it."

Li Ang thought for a moment and replied: "Maybe there are too many rules in the palace."

"Rules?"

Li Ang nodded and said: "When you walk in the palace, you have to be stared at by the maids. When you eat, you have to be stared at by the nuns. You can't speak too loudly and you can't run too loudly. She may not like that kind of atmosphere."

"Eh..."

Li Leling opened her mouth, "Is it because the atmosphere in the palace is very serious?"

Li Ang looked at the genuinely surprised expression on Li Leling's face, shook his head and said: "Classmate Leling, you are the most beloved princess of the emperor and empress. You were also judged to be weak since you were a child.

No one dares to follow the rules in the palace that require your words and deeds, so you will naturally feel that the atmosphere in the palace is relaxed."

Although Li Ang didn't go to any aristocratic lady's best friend's secret meeting, he could guess with his toes the reason why Chai Cuiqiao didn't want to go again after she went to the palace once to play with Li Leling.

Chai Chai's origin as a servant has been eliminated, but her current status is still that of a commoner's daughter without official status.

From the perspective of people in the palace, even if Li Leling wanted to be friends with common people, he would have to be a disciple of the academy.

She shouldn't be the maid of a disciple of the Academy - spreading the word would bring shame to the royal family.

"I see, I was careless."

Li Leling lowered her face, gently brushed the flowers in the flower bed, and said in a low mood: "Please tell Cui Qiao, classmate Li Ang, that I am sorry and will not do this again in the future."

The atmosphere became depressing for a while,

In fact, in a sense, as Princess Guanghua, Li Leling does not have many friends in the academy.

Ji Linglang always follows the etiquette of respect and humiliation, even when chatting and joking, she still pays attention to her standards.

Qiu Feng is the daughter of an imperial doctor, and she is more concerned about Li Leling's physical condition - her family has been specially instructed by the emperor and empress to take good care of Li Leling.

As for He Fanshuang, she doesn't have any concept of the hierarchy between royals and commoners, but she prefers reading and studying to making friends.

In contrast, Chai Cuiqiao is already Li Leling's best friend, who grew up in a deep palace and had no contact with the outside world.

Li Ang thought for a moment and said, "Actually, if Leling doesn't mind, you can come to Jinchengfang to play with Cui Qiao."

"Huh?"

Li Leling immediately raised her head, her shining eyes reflected the shade of the trees, and said in surprise: "Is it okay?"

"If your Majesty and the Queen allow it."

Li Ang nodded. He didn't care much about Li Leling's status as a princess.

I just know that Chai Cuiqiao also likes to be friends with him.

"That's great. I'll tell Aye Aniang when I get back."

Li Leling happily waved her fist and said, "Well, I remember, Risheng, you don't like outsiders to disturb you. I won't bring many guards, and I will keep quiet when I visit."

"Easy to talk about."

Li Ang waved his hand to end the conversation, and returned to the classroom with Li Leling, who was happy again.

"The sun rises."

Yang Yu and others looked at Li Leling's cheerful and brisk back, and asked in a low voice: "What were you talking about with Her Royal Highness just now?"

"It's nothing."

Li Ang explained a word or two casually, "...So I asked her to come to Jinchengfang to play with Chai Cuiqiao. Is there any problem?"

"..."

Yang Yu and Li Wei looked at each other with complicated expressions and said, "That's the princess. Isn't it a little... inappropriate to do this?"

"I don't want to be an official. Could it be that there is a royal censor who will accuse me of indulging the maid and leading the princess to evil?"
