The men and women walking in the park gave the girl a feeling that she had never experienced before, that is, peace and excitement.
As a noble, she has seen many lively banquets, dances and other activities. The liveliness she thinks of at this moment is not the liveliness in her previous life, but a peaceful liveliness.
There were passers-by everywhere who came for a walk in the evening. She couldn't call out the name of any of them. There might be nobles or civilians among them. They didn't do anything rude, and everyone showed affection on their faces. He smiled, which seemed different from the adults and the civilians mentioned in the book.
From their clothes, their accessories, the expressions on their faces and the relaxed pace, it can be seen that they are very satisfied with their current life. Although there are many people in the park, no one will bother her and him. They clearly It was around her, but it didn't disturb her.
This feeling is something you will never experience in some private gardens. There may be some exquisite gardening in those places, with flowers blooming in all seasons, everything is beautiful, but it is deserted there. Except for one or two or three or five people, there will be no other people. It is like a small castle, isolating the things inside and outside the castle.
"I will go to the Royal Academy in the second half of the year. Will it be the same as here?" The girl quickly found what she was interested in. Before she was seventeen, she had been receiving elite education from the nobility in the family manor. It is what the middle class often refers to in an envious tone, the kind of family education in which more than a dozen very famous scholars in society teach one or several children alone. Supplemented by some concepts instilled in them by family members, this is the elite education of the nobility.
Going to the Royal Academy is like gilding in a sense. Even nobles cannot be independent from the trend. Today's society is very particular about learning and schools, and the students of the Royal Academy are themselves a resource, a student himself. resources at your disposal. The normal classes of the Royal Academy are all members of the nobility. They come from different families. The connections they make in the academy do not belong to the family's resources. This is why young nobles are willing to go to school.
Network, or resources, is always what every noble lacks the most.
Du Lin thought for a while, then took the little girl's hand and walked to the bench on the side. The little girl struggled a few times but failed to break free. Her face was red and her head was slightly lowered. Du Lin held her hand and walked forward step by step. I don’t know whether it’s the sunset that’s too beautiful or the girl’s shyness that’s too tempting. The blush on the girl’s face is like the most tender peach that has just become slightly ripe. Under the thin down, it is a healthy and rosy pink.
After the two sat on the bench, Dulin did not let go of the girl's hand and said with a smile, "The Royal Academy is a very interesting place, where you can come into contact with a lot of new things, especially some scientific subjects. , they will let you see very interesting experiments, which is a rare experience.”
"As for the students, there are so many, there are about 300 to 700 people of each age group."
The girl looked a little surprised, "So many..."
Whether there are more or not depends on whether there are many classes for special talents. More and more wealthy people in the empire want to send their children to aristocratic academies to be influenced by the aristocratic atmosphere. It would be better if you can make a few aristocratic friends. In this awareness, more and more wealthy people are willing to pay a sky-high fee to send their children to schools where they may not learn anything at all.
This has also created a very special phenomenon. Some noble students are full of discrimination against those students who spend money to come in. Some teachers, including some, have this prejudice. They feel that these people have polluted the learning environment of the Royal Academy and let the highest knowledge in the empire. The hall was filled with the smell of copper.
There are also some aristocratic students who have a good relationship with students in special talent classes. They are willing to use their aristocratic status to recruit some rich followers. These people will spend every penny in their pockets for them, just to let them Live more comfortably. When they inherit certain properties from their families as adults, these students can also become their helpers.
It is definitely not a pure land. Some of the students there actually entered there after being exposed to a more real society, so it is definitely not a pure land.
Except for the students who actually received invitations to attend the Royal Academy based on their own personal abilities, there were not many people who actually went to school. They all had different purposes.
In other words... the purpose of those real students' studies is not simple enough. Only by learning more knowledge and getting a diploma can they get better jobs and join the middle class or even the upper class.
The two were chatting about endless topics while enjoying the last ray of sunshine. When it started to get dark, the girl suddenly said, "I thought you would be a very old-fashioned and rigid person, but you are actually more interesting than I thought." many."
Du Lin raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Why do you have such an idea?"
The girl wanted to laugh when she thought about the impression she left when she first met Du Lin, "When I saw you and Uncle Mags sitting together that day, I almost ignored your age. I felt that you two were very capable. There are not many people in the family who can sit and chat with Uncle Mags. I think you may be a little older."
big
Of course, Du Lin is nine years older than the girl. In the words of some people, he is a scumbag who can actually attack a girl so much younger than him. But in the eyes of the nobles, age is not a problem in marriage. It's even less likely to be a trouble that blocks the marriage. In history, some princes and ministers were in their forties or fifties, and their wives died inexplicably in various accidents. Why not marry girls who were only in their teens or 20s as their wives
The power of politics and wealth can never be reflected in age, whether it is good or bad. If Dulin's influence is discriminated against because of his youth, the guy who makes such a stupid mistake will definitely be miserable.
Although for girls, he is indeed a little bit older, just a little bit...
Du Lin continued to play with the girl's hand, and the girl seemed to be used to him doing this, "Your Majesty Mags is a good man, I need to thank him..." Looking at the girl's confused eyes, Du Lin said with a very subtle smile, "He did me a big favor and helped me find a girl I love."
Someone once asked, does your conscience hurt when you tell lies with your eyes open
Du Lin asked himself here and told everyone, no!
The date between the two is not unlimited. First of all, they must go home before it gets dark, because of tutoring and access control... Well, this is actually all nonsense. After Du Lin sends the girl back, he still has to see Mag. Sri Lanka. Dating is just a way for Magus to avoid girls from complaining about him in the future. Let them meet each other first so that they won't have too many complaints after they get married. After all, as a noble, he has enjoyed the privileged living conditions that others cannot enjoy from birth. , then you must pay something for what you have obtained, including life and freedom.
Du Lin chose the Timamont family, so Mags would have to discuss the next issues with Du Lin, including the issue of Chi Guo Guo and the distribution of core interests.
