"Have you heard? Other than the Ruyi Workshop, a few more shops in the city have started selling Ruyi Dew."
"How come I didn't know? Is the news true?"
"It's true. Today, a few more shops in the city have Ruyi Dew on sale. Before I came, I saw someone buy it."
"Let's hurry to that shop. If we're late, we'll have to wait a few more days."
…
…
Seeing a few scholarly looking youths pass by them and rush in a certain direction, a middle-aged man wearing an ordinary Confucian robe said with some confusion, "These days, there's an item called Ruyi Dew. It's all the rage in the prefectural city, especially among the socialites. Why are these men rushing like ducks for it?"
Another person beside him said, "Magistrate Magistrate, you may not know this, but this Ruyi Nectar is highly regarded among the students. By smearing it on one's body, it can relieve fatigue, refresh one's mind, and increase one's spirit by a hundred times. When a student is tired from studying, just a few drops would be enough for them to continue studying."
These two people, dressed in plain clothes, walking slowly on the street, were Magistrate Dong and Professor Feng.
Because of the "Rules for Disciples", they were very curious about the Elementary Scholar named Li Yi. They wanted to see for themselves what kind of person was able to write such a piece of Mongolian literature, and what kind of person he was. Of course, other than this reason, they also wanted to use this opportunity to teach him to turn over a new leaf and diligently seek scholarly honors.
If he really did succeed in the future, the magistrate and the professor would personally come to reprimand him, causing him to suddenly come to his senses and devote himself to studying. This would become a legend.
"If that's the case, then he has benefited the students of Qing An prefecture," Magistrate Dong said with some surprise.
He was not unfamiliar with this Ruyi Dew. These days, the women in the family often used this item. The mistress had even mentioned to him that this item was being fought over by many socialites. If she hadn't sent a servant girl to buy dozens of bottles, she probably wouldn't have been able to buy it.
However, this was the first time he knew that this Ruyi Dew had such an effect.
If he could help these students and make them study more diligently, it would be a great contribution.
Professor Feng nodded and said, "Yes, in the prefectural school, there are already many students who have responded that this item is indeed very useful for studying. I am thinking of purchasing a batch to see if it can be popularized."
Yesterday, after Prefectural Magistrate Dong had asked to see the scholar named Li Yi, he had done some research. Only then did he discover that the author of "Rules for Disciples" was the person the Minister of Education called "the number one scholar in the Jing Kingdom". At the same time, he was also the shopkeeper of the Ruyi Workshop in Qing An Prefecture. The popular Ruyi nectar in the prefectural city was also made by him.
"Although this item is good, but …" Prefectural Magistrate Dong changed the topic and said, "but, as a scholar, he should focus his efforts on obtaining scholarly honors. This person has such talent, we really shouldn't waste it."
Professor Feng hurriedly said, "Prefectural Magistrate Dong is right. Since he can write a teaching article like" Rules for Disciples ", he must have a unique understanding of teaching. Why don't we let him be a scholar in the district school? This way, he won't delay his examination and he can also contribute to the teaching of the prefectural school."
"That would be good." Prefectural Magistrate Dong nodded and agreed deeply.
At this time, Professor Feng pointed ahead and said, "Sir, we are about to reach the Ruyi Workshop …"
A moment later, at the entrance of the Ruyi Workshop, Prefectural Magistrate Dong raised his head to look at the signboard that said "Ruyi Workshop". He couldn't help but exclaim, "Good calligraphy!"
"No wonder the Minister of Education has such a high opinion of him. Just based on this calligraphy, I'm afraid there aren't many people in this world who can compare." Professor Feng was also secretly amazed. After a long time, his gaze finally moved away from the signboard. He turned his head and said, "Sir, please …"
…
As the saying goes, if you want to capture a woman's heart, you must first capture her stomach.
Li Yi felt that he was very close to this goal.
After his previous warm invitations, the female constable named MIngzhu would always ask for a glass of wine when she passed by the shop while patrolling the streets. If it was mealtime, she would sometimes sit down and freeload a meal.
This kind of unconventional and forthright personality didn't seem like someone from the royal family. She was more like someone from the pugilistic world. Li Yi would occasionally wonder if she was really a princess or a princess.
However, looking at Li Xuan, he knew that the members of the royal family of the Jing Kingdom were all special. At least they were very close to the people. After all, since ancient times, he had never heard of any princess or princess taking being a constable as their profession. Regardless of whether she was experiencing this kind of life on a whim, from an outsider's point of view, at least she was very responsible. This also made Li Yi look at her in a new light.
With such a loyal constable who abhorred evil, he would come to the store whenever he had nothing to do. Who would be stupid enough to cause trouble here?
As Li Yi was thinking about this, two figures walked into the shop.
Although Magistrate Dong was wearing plain clothes today and not his official robes, he had been in a high position for a long time. He naturally had the aura of a superior. After all, he was going to teach that scholar a lesson. His expression was slightly serious, but he didn't show any anger.
Looking into the hall, the first person he saw was not the scholar, but a beautiful woman wearing a light blue constable's uniform. When Magistrate Dong entered, the woman happened to raise her head to look at him.
The moment he saw the woman, Magistrate Dong stopped in his tracks. His body trembled, and the dignified expression on his face disappeared. His expression became serious, and he was about to speak when the woman waved her hand casually. Magistrate Dong's words were immediately stuck in his throat.
Professor Feng did not recognize the woman. After entering, he wore the serious expression that he usually wore in front of students. He walked to the side of the only young man in the hall and asked, "You are Li Yi?"
Li Yi's face showed a look of shock. No way, someone really came to cause trouble?
This person showed a grim face the moment he entered, and named him by name. One look and he knew that this person did not come with good intentions.
He turned his head to look at MIngzhu and blinked.
As a constable, this person came to bully you right in front of your face, and you don't care?
MIngzhu took a sip of wine, the expression on her pretty face did not change.
Seeing that Li Yi did not answer, Professor Feng thought that he had frightened him and continued to ask, "That 'Disciple Rules', was it your creation?"
"'Disciple Rules'?"
Li Yi finally understood that the other person was not here to cause trouble. Yesterday, Qin Qing had told him that the magistrate had sent someone to take away the 'Disciple Rules' that he had modified. At that time, Li Yi had been a little surprised. The only people who knew about the 'Disciple Rules' were him, Qin Qing, and those naughty children. How did the magistrate know about it?
But now was not the time to think about this. The magistrate was a very high position. The magistrate of Qing An Prefecture was almost equivalent to the mayor of a municipality in the future. The rank was very high, and Li Yi did not dare to slight him. He immediately stood up.
"Welcome, Lord Prefectural Magistrate. Please take a seat, please take a seat!" He did not know how to greet such a high official, so he hurriedly said this based on the little impression he had seen in the television series.
Li Yi's action shocked Professor Feng. The serious expression on his face immediately disappeared. The magistrate was right beside him. Even if he had a few more guts, he would not dare to sit!
