The sunset is magnificent, and the streets of Zhengyang are peaceful and quiet.
Chen Yue, Ji Boying, Zheng Jingren, and Ma Quan, the newly established "Donglin Party", were walking on the streets of Zhengyang, heading towards the "Song Gong Nanyuan" of the great scholar Song Weiguang.
"The Song family has two gardens. One was given by the emperor when Taiyuan was founded, and the other was purchased by the Song family in Zhengyang. The gardens given by the royal family were used by the Song family to entertain dignitaries. As for us I went to Song Gong Nanyuan, which is open to ordinary people on weekdays, but it was a beautiful sight for us."
Ji Boying shook the folding fan in his hand. It was obviously late autumn, and Ji Boying was wearing autumn clothes, but the folding fan was swaying very coquettishly.
"The great scholar is also the cornerstone of our Zhengyang Mansion's stability."
Ma Quan said: "People with special abilities such as Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Jiangwu Hall, and Tianxing Sect, when they arrive in Zhengyang Mansion, they must first go to Mr. Song to sign a contract, and then they can move around in Zhengyang Mansion, otherwise they will Locked up.”
Literary cultivation is mainly about weaving principles. When you reach a very high level, you can make a contract with someone, and then the other person will definitely abide by it.
This is one of the reasons why the imperial court wanted Confucianism to govern the world.
"The great Confucian is so great, why don't you just become a disciple of the great Confucian?"
Chen Yue asked.
Compared to Song Weiguang, Huang Tianshun is obviously much inferior.
"I want, too."
Ma Quan calmly stated the facts and said: "But they have stopped accepting disciples for a long time. As for the Grand Scholar, he specifically made a declaration that he would accept a disciple from Zhengyang Mansion at the Golden Flower Society. This means to me It’s an opportunity.”
It was also because of this that Ma Quan worked hard to prepare for the exam, just to seize this opportunity.
"Brother Ma Quan is now a well-groomed horse, waiting to be chosen by Chang Le at the Golden Flower Party."
Zheng Jingren said with a smile.
"Chang Le?"
Chen Yue hesitated.
Ma Quan explained briefly, which made Chen Yue nod, knowing that Chang Le was Bole from another world.
Song Gong Nanyuan is located in the Zhengyang Mansion. When Chen Yue and others came here, many officials had already gathered in front of the door. They were all signing contracts and receiving license plates before they could enter. .
Chen Yue walked up to the front and read the contract to be signed. The contract was written by Song Weiguang. After the official who wanted to sign the contract entered the garden, he was not allowed to use any writing skills. The articles he wrote in it were just to express his feelings directly. It adds color to this gathering and allows literati with low cultivation to stand out.
"The Laws and Orders of Taiyuan were written by Confucian sages, and the great Confucians also had a contract with the Laws and Orders. This contract is very coercive. Violating the contract is like forcibly breaking the law, and you will be directly bound by the Taiyuan Laws. "
The person holding the contract looked at Chen Yue's review and explained.
Chen Yue looked at the person who took the contract, then wrote and signed his name on it.
Ji Boying, Ma Quan, and Zheng Jingren also handed over their posts respectively, signed the contract, and then entered the garden together.
"Brother Ma, you take a walk around first, and we'll meet at our seats later."
Ji Boying said to Ma Quan, and then to Chen Yue and Zheng Jingren: "In this literary meeting, there are several noble people who have written to you. Now that we have participated in the literary meeting, it would be better to visit them one by one. .”
See Lian Pi.
Chen Yue felt that there was still some problem with his identity, so he hesitated.
"Chen Yue, you are here too."
Xing Yishan was maintaining law and order in the South Garden. After seeing Chen Yue, he walked up to him with a smile and said, "Behave well at this Golden Flower Party."
"?"
Chen Yue looked at Xing Yishan. Is the noble man behind this person so powerful? Have I really climbed onto a high branch?
Regarding the identity matter, Xing Yishan was closest to the truth. Now that he said it was no problem, Chen Yue let go of his scruples and followed Ji Boying in the garden and began to visit various people.
The cultural gathering has not officially started yet, and it is also the time for people to wander around and get familiar with each other.
"This is Mr. Liu..."
"This is Mr. Gu..."
"This is Mr. Wen..."
"This is Mr. Sun..."
"..."
Chen Yue followed Ji Boying and met more than twenty Confucian and Taoist figures in Zhengyang Mansion. These people were also quite surprised when they saw Chen Yue, but for them, the most curious thing It was the various "settings" in Lian Er Chun. Chen Yue briefly mentioned the two characters. Seeing that there were others surrounding them, he resigned in a sensible manner.
"Alas, the noble man I know has not been found yet."
Zheng Jingren followed behind Chen Yue, looking around. The noble person he was talking about was the person who hit it off with him in Yixiang Tower and got him a Golden Flower Club name card.
The bright moon gradually appeared, and the bouquets in the garden were beautifully arranged. The three people came, and the fragrance filled the air. While admiring the flowers, the three people also turned around and saw two people surrounding the place where Ma Quan was sitting, arrogantly singing. say something.
Chen Yue stepped forward, raised his voice and asked, "But what's the matter?"
"This is Shen Yong, my former classmate. This is Tong Jinsheng."
Ma Quan stood up and introduced with an ugly face: "Tong Jinsheng is a disciple of Academician Huang, and Shen Yong is Tong Jinsheng's friend. They heard that I wanted to become a disciple and came here to give me advice."
Chen Yue, Ji Boying, and Zheng Jing all looked at Shen Yong and Tong Jinsheng.
"Don't take advice seriously."
Shen Yong said calmly: "I'm just showing you a clear path. My article has been handed over to the Grand Master by Brother Tong. The Grand Master will only accept one disciple this time, so you'd better give up as soon as possible."
Ma Quan's face looked a little gloomy. He had worked hard to prepare for the exam just to seize an opportunity. Unexpectedly, this opportunity had been taken through the back door. Even though he was good at cultivating qi, he was still quite disappointed at this time.
"Be easy on yourself."
Chen Yue said with relief: "If they were 100% sure, they wouldn't come here to make you give up."
When Ma Quan heard this, he felt refreshed.
"In which year were you elected?"
Shen Yong spoke angrily and directly checked Chen Yue's academic qualifications.
"It's not about lifting people."
Chen Yue replied calmly.
"He is the author of Lian Er Chun."
Ji Boying was behind and introduced aloud.
The book "Lian Er Chun" is quite valuable in Zhengyang Mansion.
When Shen Yong heard this, his face became even more ugly, and he said angrily: "The sedan chair has its own rules. When the gong is sounded, you should stand sideways!"
At this time, there were various systems for the sedan chair. In general, when people below met those above, they had to avoid it to varying degrees. When Shen Yong said this, he established himself as a superior person.
"Actually, this Shen Yong also has the identity of a writer."
Zheng Jingren said: "He wrote the "Lu Fang Ji" in Qingjiang Library, but the day for sale was not chosen right, so some of it cannot be sold." Zheng Jingren removed his status as a superior person.
When Shen Yong heard this, his expression became even more ugly.
Chen Yue looked at Shen Yong, but he didn't expect that this man had already fought with him in the ring. He smiled slightly and said loudly: "So you are the author of Lu Fang Ji."
This statement was made loudly, attracting many people to look over, which made Shen Yong look embarrassed. He wrote novels in secret, and now it was exposed. It would be okay if the book was famous, but it would be a shame for him.
After all, the real elites, those who engage in traditional creation, are the ones who review and commentate and maintain the standards.
"I also have something to say that is just right for you."
Chen Yue looked at Shen Yong with a smile and said: "The bastard is ignorant. He can't loosen his teeth by biting pig iron."
This bastard bit him and refused to let go.
"you……"
The temperature in Shen Yong rises rapidly on late autumn nights.
Red warm turtle!
