They are Luo Zhang, king of piano, Zhao Jing, king of chess, Yan Ming, king of calligraphy, and Wu Qi, king of painting. As for the identity of the remaining young man, Yunze was a little stunned.
This person turned out to be Wanyan Lu, the Jin Kingdom's special envoy to the Jing Dynasty and the youngest son of Jin Kingdom Prince Wanyan Zongbi. It is said that he has been here for nearly a year in order to promote alliance against the Khitan.
But because Emperor Jing Song Ji had not made a decision on the Lianjin matter, he could only stay in Jingchao and wait for the results from Jingchao's side.
When Song Youwei introduced Wanyan Lu, Song Lin's eyes clearly showed a coldness. Yunze glanced at Song Lin in surprise. Meeting Yunze's gaze, Song Lin just smiled sweetly and said nothing.
After hearing Song Youwei's introduction to Yunze, the five people on the other side clearly showed a trace of contempt and disdain in their eyes, but they did not show it.
Book king Yanming was the first to speak out. "Young Master Yun is really a busy nobleman, and he also has a lot of face. In order to wait for you, Princess Youwei not only postponed the cultural meeting, but also came to pick you up at the door in person... I will not enjoy such an honor. ."
His voice was a little sour. Although it sounded fine, the jealousy in it was obvious.
"Yes, Mr. Yun seems to be very popular with our Princess Youwei. I wonder if Mr. Yun is worthy of this favor..." King Qin Luo Zhang was even more direct, questioning and ridiculing directly.
The chess king sneered softly and said: "You will learn from Master Yun after you have a literary meeting, and you will have to admire Master Yun. Don't let down the favor of our Princess Youwei!"
The painting king smiled faintly. "That's natural. I heard that Mr. Yun has extraordinary talents and learning. He shouldn't be stingy about showing it off. Otherwise, he won't dare to come to this literary gathering!"
The four of them sang together and seemed to be chatting casually, but inside and outside their words were expressions of support for Yunze. And that deep feeling of jealousy.
Seeing that Song Youwei valued Yunze so much, the four of them would be surprised if they weren't jealous. After all, these four all want to win Song Youwei's favor. He can also be regarded as Song Youwei's suitor.
Otherwise, given their reputation, they might not join the literary club organized by Song Youwei.
"Everyone, why don't we go upstairs first? Since Mr. Yun is here, the literary meeting should also start. I'm afraid everyone is impatient. Speaking of which, it has been a month since I joined the Tongwen Club. This is my first time. Attending the cultural gathering held by the Tongwen Association."
At this time, Wanyan Lu on the side saw that Song Youwei's face was a little ugly, so he quickly came out to smooth things over.
Hearing this, Yunze looked at the four kings who were showing great hostility towards him playfully, with a slight curl in his mouth, and then looked at Wanyan Lu who was trying to smooth things over. From the other person's eyes, he saw teasing and contempt.
The other party seemed to be helping him, but I'm afraid this guy didn't take him seriously, and was even jealous of him like the other four.
Being able to accompany Song Youwei and waiting at the door, it is impossible to say that he has no interest in Song Youwei.
Of course, Yunze also had a guess that Wanyan Lu joined Song Youwei's Tongwen Club. It was probably not that simple. He wanted to promote the Jin Jing alliance, but Song Youwei's father Song Rui wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
The purpose of this Wanyan law is definitely not simple.
"Well... let's go! Everyone is waiting above, let's go up!" Song Youwei nodded to Yunze.
Song Youwei was in front, followed by the five others, with Yunze and Song Lin falling at the end. Song Lin came close to Yunze, she put her mouth to Yunze's ear and whispered: "Be careful about Wanyan Lu, he is not a good person..."
Hearing this, Yunze looked at Song Lin in surprise, wondering why the other party was so sure that Wanyan Lu was not a good person. Is it because he was an envoy from the Kingdom of Jin? ?
Seeming to see the confusion in Yunze's eyes, Song Lin whispered again: "Do you still remember what shocked the horse I was riding when you entered the capital?"
There was a bright light in Yunze's eyes, and he instantly knew why Song Lin said Wanyan Lu was not a good person. He had asked Song Lin before why she was riding a frightened horse on the street.
Song Lin said that she was riding Yang Guogong's horse, and Yang Guogong was Song Rui's most solid supporter. Moreover, it was precisely because of Yang Guogong's presence that Emperor Jing Song Ji hesitated for so long about joining the Jin Dynasty, and even tended to sit on the mountain. Watch the tiger fight.
In other words, the horse was originally used to deal with Yang Guogong, but Song Lin rode it by mistake. Otherwise, Yang Guogong might have died at this time.
Without the support of Yang Guogong, Song Rui's faction may lose to Li Zheng's faction. It seems that Song Lin should know something. The person who did this may be Wanyan Lu. It's just that Song Ji may have evidence, but it's not easy to get angry. Or, there is no direct evidence.
But no matter what, this Wanyan Lu will never find him to be as harmless as he seems on the surface. Even when he joined Tongwen Society, his target was probably Song Youwei or Song Rui.
Yunze stared at Wanyan Lu's back, the sparkle in his eyes became even brighter. He was afraid that he would not be able to keep this guy. Whether it was for Song Youwei or Song Rui, he had to find a chance to kill this guy.
Just when Yunze was thinking about how to kill Wan Yanlu, the group had already arrived at the fifth floor. The fifth floor of Guanchao Building was reserved by Tongwenshe.
Entering the fifth floor, you can see nearly a hundred people sitting around, all wearing uniforms. Of course, there are many noble women among them.
Song Youwei cannot be the only woman running this Tongwen Club. Otherwise, it may have a great impact on her reputation.
Seeing Song Youwei coming in, the young men's eyes were full of admiration, while the women's faces were full of intimacy. Of course, the woman's eyes were more focused on the Four Kings of Music, Chess, Calligraphy and Painting and Wanyan Lu.
These five people are handsome and famous. It would be strange for these women not to be fascinated by them.
When she saw Yunze and Song Lin behind the six people, the woman's eyes were full of curiosity, but the faces of the men were full of jealousy, and some even had fire in their eyes.
Seeing this scene, Yunze was a little amused. It seemed that these people regarded him as a love rival. All of them are afraid that they are Song Youwei's suitors. It's a pity that Song Youwei hasn't chosen anyone among them yet.
"Hello, Chief... Please take a seat... The literary meeting is waiting for you..." Everyone stood up and greeted Song Youwei.
At the same time, they also greeted the remaining four kings and Wanyan Lu. Even Song Lin was greeted, but no one greeted Yunze.
If anything, it was the cold snorts that these people made when Yunze passed by them.
The corner of Yunze's mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled playfully. It seemed that this literary meeting was going to be a lot of fun!
"Now that the head of the club is here, let's start the literary meeting... This time we are meeting friends based on literature, and we hope that everyone can have a good time. Now, our first challenge begins..."
One of them stood up and looked at the audience, specifically stopping at Yunze, and said in a meaningful voice.
"Everyone should be familiar with the rules of the competition, but since there are new literary friends here, let me say it again. This project is for any one of you to come out and compete with other literary friends present. Each side will win, and if you lose, you will be rewarded. I hope you are willing to admit defeat. Of course, literary friends who are challenged can directly admit defeat...those who admit defeat will be fined three drinks!"
As this person's voice sounded, more than a dozen people stood up at the scene. They looked at Yunze with burning eyes, opened their mouths and shouted: "I want to challenge Yunze..."
As soon as they said these words, the scene fell into dead silence. Yunze was also stunned for a while. He looked at the dozen or so people with some confusion. Soon, the amusement on his face became more intense.
Good guy, this group of people seems to be full of resentment towards him. As soon as the first game started, these people couldn't wait to challenge him. This shows how much they dislike him.
Even Song Youwei, who was sitting next to Yunze, had a look of astonishment on her face. She seemed to have never expected the first item, that Yunze was so popular. As for how these people knew Yunze's name.
Of course she told these people. After hearing the name Yunze, these people were very interested. After all, Yunze is a new talent, a master of poetry and painting. They had already heard about some things about Yunze.
Although these people who rose up to challenge Yunze wanted to defeat Yunze, of course, they also wanted to rely on Yunze to gain favor with Song Youwei.
Song Lin looked at the dozen or so people who jumped out impatiently, and then at the dozen or so people who were about to stand up at the same time, but then sat down again because someone else got there first. She also had a look of astonishment on her face.
"Yunze, I didn't expect you to be quite popular... I'm afraid these people want to step on you to get the upper hand..." Song Lin looked at Yunze with a teasing voice.
She was not stupid. From their behavior, she had already guessed what these people wanted to do.
Although her voice was not loud, it was not quiet either. Everyone around her heard it. Everyone looked at Yunze, their eyes full of amusement and teasing, and even a hint of disdain and disdain.
Although Yunze had some literary reputation, Song Lin's words were somewhat flattering to Yunze, which made them, talented people who always thought highly of themselves, very dissatisfied.
They even felt that if Yunze really competed with them, he would definitely be a few points behind in terms of talent and learning. Being able to have some literary names is just a matter of good luck and the praise of some people.
Although these people were disdainful of Yunze in their hearts, they did not show it. After all, Yunze was the person invited by Song Youwei. At least some face should be given to Song Youwei.
"They want to step on me and get the upper hand... they... are not enough..." Yunze glanced at Song Lin, then at the people around him, with a trace of disdain on his lips.
As soon as he said these words, the people around him looked startled, and anger suddenly surged in their hearts. Everyone looked at Yunze angrily.
They felt that this boy Yunze was really arrogant. There were so many talented people, but Yunze said they were not enough. Who did this boy think he was? You have to know that the capital city is full of outstanding people.
There are so many talented people. It is estimated that there are not as many talented people as in the capital anywhere else in Jingdi. Even the talented people who are praised as the best in various places may not even be ranked in the capital when they arrive in the capital.
This is the disdain that talented people in the capital have for talented people from all over the world. How can these people with eyes above their heads put other people in their eyes?
"Hey, Mr. Yun has such a loud tone. Are you looking down on our talented people in the capital? I just don't know how much Mr. Yun weighs, yet you dare to speak so brazenly."
At this time, Yanming, the book king sitting on the other side, said with a cold and dissatisfied voice.
"Mr. Yun is someone who is valued by the leader of the society. It's right to be crazy. However, I don't know how much capital he has..."
"Yeah, just talking won't do it. Why don't we just compete... Mr. Yun, you can pick a dozen of them each. With your talent and learning, it shouldn't be a problem! It's reasonable to look down on us."
The other three kings looked at Yunze teasingly. In addition to hostility, there was also a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
Hearing this, Yunze looked at the clown-like Four Kings with a hint of playfulness: "I'm sorry, I'm not looking down on you... I'm looking down on you... With all due respect... everyone here is rubbish. !”
As soon as Yunze's words came out, everyone present was stunned. It also made Song Lin on the side feel familiar, as if Yunze had heard these words before.
After the people around him were stunned, they suddenly became excited. They felt that Yunze was too crazy, so crazy that they wanted to step forward and beat Yunze to the ground.
However, it’s not Yun Zekuang’s fault, this group of people is really too bullying. From the moment he walked in until now, no one present has given him a good look. It’s okay if you don’t say hello.
But everyone wants to step on him and get to the top, and they really think he is a fool! Since these guys are looking for death, Yunze is not afraid of making things bigger.
He stood up and walked to the balcony in front, and glanced around the Chaoguan Tower. The open windows gave Yunze an unobstructed view of the entire capital.
The location of Song Yu, the location of the Gao family, and the location of Prime Minister Li Zheng's mansion can all be seen, and the outline of the building can even be seen from a distance.
This place is so good that Yunze can see the signals from people at several action points. He turned to look at the excited crowd. Before these people could speak, Yunze opened his mouth and said:
"Since you want to step on me and get the upper hand, then... let's go together! I alone... will fight all of you... you... with me... will only be the defeated general..."
There was a domineering air in Yunze's voice. This aura made everyone present feel weak, and they were all afraid to look directly at Yunze.
But someone soon came back to his senses and said with a mocking look: "Let's fight... Since you look down on us so much, don't blame us for bullying the few! I will be the first to challenge you..."
Everyone saw a look of joy and expectation on their faces when they saw the speaker. The speaker was a famous poet, and he could compose a poem just by opening his mouth. Although the quality of the poem was average, there were only a few people who could compose a poem out of his mouth.
Seeing this person being the first to challenge Yunze, everyone felt that Yunze would be embarrassed in this first match. Everyone looked at Yunze mockingly, as if waiting to see Yunze make a fool of himself.
Yunze's words really aroused their hatred towards Yunze. There is no one left to argue with this person.
Song Lin on the side looked at Yunze with excitement, and her eyes were full of expectation. She expected Yunze to swell the faces of each of these people. She has blind confidence in Yunze,
Song Youwei, on the other hand, looked at the angry crowd around her and Yunze's arrogant temper, and shook her head with a smile. She didn't expect things to turn out like this.
