These families had all bought paper, ink, brushes, and inkstones from Ink Fragrance Pavilion.
Could it be that this was just a coincidence?
"Didn't they say that Mr. White Crane wouldn't let anyone know that he was taking in a disciple?"
"You don't know about this, Miss Lin. Although Mr. White Crane wouldn't take the initiative to mention it, all the young ladies in Dragon City who were chosen by Mr. White Crane are proud of it. Therefore, they often compete to show off their talents at the end of the year, hoping that Mr. White Crane would choose them as his students. This place has almost become a scenic spot in Dragon City! "
Uncle Rong spoke of this matter in a clear and logical manner. Obviously, he had been thinking about it for some time.
"Then, do the young ladies from the aristocratic families have anything in common?"
Uncle Rong shook his head, looking very envious.
"Perhaps they are all talented and intelligent. Otherwise, Mr. White Crane wouldn't have chosen them. Oh yes, Miss Lin, would you like to pay a visit to Mr. White Crane? I heard that she's a person with genuine talent and genuine knowledge. "
Lin Mengya shook her head. It was not that she was too proud, but there was something very wrong with Mr. White Crane.
At night, when everyone returned to the Gong Mansion, Lin Mengya invited them to the main hall.
"Little sister, why didn't you go to bed at night? Why did you ask us to come here?"
Gong Wu stretched himself. His face was slightly red, and it was obvious that he had drunk a lot at the banquet.
"Of course I asked you to come here to talk business. By the way, did you hear anything about Mr. Bai He at the banquet today? "
Before he could finish his words, Gong Si said.
"This Mister Bai He seems to have some talent. Today, I saw with my own eyes a piece of calligraphy that she gave to her students. Her calligraphy is beautiful, and the artistic conception is also good. She is much better than me. "
Of course, there was some modesty on Gong Si's part.
But Mr. White Crane was obviously not an ordinary person to be praised by him.
"Also, I heard that she has a very strange way of teaching students. No one is allowed to look at her when she is teaching. But I heard that all the students who have been taught by her will have earth-shattering changes! "
Gong Wu shook his head and said excitedly.
"Have you seen the appearance of this Mr. White Crane?"
Lin Mengya became more and more curious. Was this person really so capable?
However, the few of them shook their heads at the same time.
"It seems like these students all invited Mr. Bai He, but she didn't go to any of them. She probably thinks that it's not good to go to any of them."
Gong Bin pondered for a moment before saying slowly.
This Mr. White Crane really knows how to conduct himself.
"By the way, you didn't call us here just to ask about Mr. Bai He, did you?"
Gong Wu pulled open his collar, looking a little unrestrained.
But soon after, his brothers rolled their eyes at him, and he quietly fastened his collar.
"Oh, I went to visit those teachers today. The others didn't say anything, but Qi Yue seemed to be interested. However, he only said that he would come if we could build the academy. I think this kind of person is usually a man of his word. I don't think he won't come. "
The members of the Gong family all had different expressions on their faces when they heard about this.
The Gong Family's ancestor narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment before speaking.
"Qi Yue, why does this name sound so familiar?"
"Ancestor, Qi Yue is the young master who was driven out of the Qi family ten years ago."
Gong Bin was quite familiar with this matter.
"Oh, yes, that's him! Oh, he's a smart boy. How could the Qi family be so cruel to drive him out of the family! "
The Gong Family's ancestor said with pity when he mentioned Qi Yue.
Lin Mengya and Gong Si secretly exchanged a glance. They didn't expect the Gong Family's ancestor to know about this matter.
It seemed that they really couldn't underestimate the Gong Family's memory storage.
"Great-grandfather, do you know the reason why Qi Yue was driven out?"
Gong Si asked tentatively, and the Gong Family's ancestor nodded and said.
"Yes, I know about it. There used to be a young lady in the Qi family. I heard that she was famous for her hot temper before she married. At home, he was the one who had the final say. After she got married, Qi Yue's mother married into the family. At that time, Qi Yue's mother was also a talented girl, but she didn't come from a noble family. That's why the Qi family's grandaunt never liked her sister-in-law. Qi Yue's father passed away when he was seven years old. Qi Yue and his mother could have lived peacefully in the Qi family, but the Qi family's grandaunt was too overbearing. She said that Qi Yue's mother didn't follow the rules of a married woman and drove them out. Not long after that, Qi Yue's mother passed away, and Qi Yue became an orphan. "
This life experience really made people sigh endlessly.
No wonder Qi Yue was so resistant when he mistook her for a member of the Qi family.
If it were her, she would have reacted the same way.
"But today, I pretended to be a member of the Qi family and wanted to bring Qi Yue back. What's going on? "
Qi Ke didn't seem to hate Qi Yue that much.
Indeed, outsiders couldn't understand the things that happened in a big family.
"I think he cherishes talent. After all, Qi Yue's knowledge is very famous in the whole of Dragon City. If he can come, then our academy will be like a tiger that has grown wings. "
Great-grandfather seemed to admire Qi Yue very much. The only difference between the Gong family and other families was that they valued talent and character.
There were many important positions in the family that were taken up by servants.
Compared to the slaves of other families, the servants in the Gong family were more like employees.
With such advanced thinking, the Gong family wouldn't be interested in him.
"I called everyone here today because I want to assign a task to everyone."
Time was running out. After the New Year, she had to go to the Holy Temple to participate in the Full Moon Festival.
Long Tianhao could go with her. After all, he was the disciple of The Lord, so it was reasonable for him to rush back.
But she didn't want to bring any of the people from the Gong family.
On the one hand, the academy needed manpower. On the other hand, the Full Moon Ceremony was going to be a fierce battle.
Although the people from the Gong family were good, they didn't have enough experience in fighting and would easily be at a disadvantage.
"Sister, just tell us what to do."
Gong Er was as forthright as ever, and he always put her first.
Lin Mengya nodded and quickly assigned the tasks.
When spring came, the Gong family would be like a sprout, bursting out of the soil.
"Ya 'er, can I come in?"
After returning to his room, Gong Si knocked on her door again.
Baisu brought Ning 'er here today, and he was staring at her with his big black eyes, refusing to sleep.
"It's okay, come in."
After thinking for a while, she let the baby lie in her arms.
This little guy was getting smarter and better at acting coquettishly.
When Gong Si entered the room and saw the little guy in his sister's arms, he couldn't help but smile.
Although they didn't have much contact, this little guy was really cute.
"Fourth Brother, why aren't you asleep?"
Lin Mengya looked at him curiously and asked. Gong Si stopped smiling.
"Are you hiding something from me?"
Lin Mengya wanted to pretend to be innocent, but Gong Si was smarter than she thought.
"Don't hide it from me. Although I'm not as smart as you, you always talk about something else. Today, you weren't in a hurry to assign the tasks in the academy, but you invited us here in a hurry. Therefore, you must want to know about Mr. Bai He, right? "
She didn't look surprised, or rather, she didn't need to hide anything from Gong Si.
"San 'er, carry the baby in."
San 'er immediately took over, and the little guy fell asleep.
"You've guessed correctly, but you'd better not get involved in this matter. Perhaps it's poison to the Gong family. "
She had to be cautious about what happened today.
If it wasn't a coincidence, and everything was connected, then this matter must have something to do with the Divine Temple.
As for Mr. Bai He's background, she naturally had a way to find out.
Once it was confirmed that this matter had something to do with the Divine Temple, the Gong family had to leave.
"What do you mean? You don't trust our family? "
Sometimes, Gong Si was so stubborn that it gave Lin Mengya a headache.
"No, I've never thought of it that way. Let me ask you, Fourth Elder Brother, who do you think the Gong family can't afford to offend now, even when it was at its peak? "
Lin Mengya tried to be tactful with her words, but Gong Si's face turned pale at the thought of it.
"This … can't be! As far as I know, the Divine Temple has never interfered in the affairs of the aristocratic families and the royal family. Are you mistaken? "
Lin Mengya sighed. This was the inconvenience that deep-rooted thinking brought to people.
"If the Divine Temple is really that extraordinary, then why would they place the recognition of the ten aristocratic families in the Divine Temple?"
Perhaps in the eyes of the people of Wei, the Divine Temple was more like a church, a place of spiritual yearning.
But what she saw was the omnipresent control of the Divine Temple.
The royal family was aware of it, but unfortunately, they couldn't resist it.
The huge State of Wei was being toyed with by Temple, how could they not be afraid?
Gong Si didn't say anything. After a long while, he sighed.
"It seems like I'm a frog at the bottom of a well."
Lin Mengya didn't think so, but said calmly.
"It's not your fault. If you've been taught since young that the color of the sky is red, then you'll think that the sky is red in the future. Fourth Elder Brother, I think I'm luckier because I grew up outside. But I'm not talking about you. Your knowledge is even more shallow. "
