"I went up to the fourth floor today just to deliver goods. I didn't come to attend the Gathering of Talents with people like Ye Changlong. The lyrics and couplets are left in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion for everyone to read anytime, anywhere!"
Ning Wuyan's goods were delivered.
He also came up to the fourth floor.
The poems and poems written at today's gathering of talents will surely spread throughout Daxing, and the purpose of enhancing one's reputation for self-protection will be achieved.
Different from the last time on the small island in the middle of the lake, after selling ten poems, they mixed the water for a long time and then left, except for a hundred taels of silver, not taking a single cloud with them.
This time, Ning Wuhuang turned this gathering of talents into a joke.
"Mr. Ning, are you leaving?" Zhou Jingxian didn't mind joining in the fun. The corners of her lips kept rising as she looked at Zhou An, the organizer of the gathering.
Zhou An's eyes looked like he wanted to knife someone, and he didn't even want to hide it.
He didn't expect that Ning Wuhuang would be so vindictive and so bold that he would destroy his place!
"If I don't leave, and another talented scholar Ye who can't even write clearly comes up, I'll feel like a thorn in my back, a pain in my neck, and a lump in my throat. I'm worried that I won't be able to challenge the opponent, and I'm also worried that if I win, I'll be called a bully. "
After Ning Wuyan broke his skin, he didn't even plan to keep a pair of underwear, not to mention saving face for Ye Changlong.
Ye Changlong was so angry at this wave of cynicism that he wanted to refute.
Zhou An glanced at him, and Ye Changlong thought about how he cheated to get to the third floor. In order to avoid making things worse, Ning Wuchang really challenged him and swallowed his anger.
"Mr. Ning is leaving, what are we still doing here, watching others cheat in their performances?"
"Anyway, I don't dare to go up the stairs to compete with Mr. Ning. I don't have as much talent as Mr. Ning, and I don't have as much shame as Ye Changlong."
"If I had known that the Gathering of Talents Association was not gathering talented people, but hiding filth and evil, I might as well have slept at home."
"Brother Wang, are you sleeping at home to witness the publication of Shixian's new poems and lyrics? This trip is not in vain. We will meet again tomorrow to copy the lyrics."
The students in the lobby made an agreement with each other and walked out in groups.
Students standing on the second floor, you look at me, I look at you.
Finally, thinking about what Ning Wuyan said about challenging him, he kept shaking his head in denial and walked downstairs.
The guards guarding the stairs were only asked to strictly stop the students who wanted to rush upstairs. They never thought that there would be students who finally answered the questions correctly and walked down in groups.
He raised his head and looked towards the fourth floor. Seeing that the young Marquis seemed invisible, he shouted anxiously: "Little Marquis, do you want to stop them?"
As Zhou An's bodyguard, he naturally knew how much manpower and financial resources had been spent on holding this talent gathering and competing with the talent conference that Zhou Jingxian attended that day.
Just to book the Xiaoxiang Pavilion for seven days and build momentum for this rally, tens of thousands of taels were spent.
Not to mention that today's security guards still have many problems that require huge sums of money to purchase.
It has only been half a day now, and the meeting has dispersed. If word spreads, I am afraid that it will become a laughing stock in the world.
Zhou An naturally knew what would happen if he let these students go.
But he has no right not to let people go.
He had already experienced the harsh words and writings of literati from Ning Wushan's poems. If he dared to stop the students from going downstairs, it would probably not take a few days for the emperor and his father to hear that he did not pay attention to literature. Rumors about talented people.
It is true that he is loved by his father and is even a high-class marquis, but if he hinders his father, he will only be a high-class marquis in this life.
Wow!
Zhou An kicked down the box on the ground. The porcelain bottle shattered and the perfume inside overflowed. The aroma that he had never smelled before made him even more angry.
"Let them go!"
Zhou An's loud shouts continued to echo in the circular Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
The students quickened their pace and hurried out.
Only the few students who Ye Changlong had arranged to be present in advance were left, stunned on the spot, not knowing whether to go or stay.
"Mr. Ning, I'll wait for you at the perfume shop first. I have many sisters in my family. I want to buy more perfume and send them to Jing'an City." Before Cheng Yilin went out, he did not forget to reply to Ning Wuhuang's invitation.
Ning Wushan couldn't tell whether Cheng Yi was really thinking about the perfume, or whether he was just adding fuel to the fire to some people.
He glanced at the angry Xiang Xiang with some pity, and at the same time it was a pity that this kick could not hit Ye Changlong.
never mind.
Anyway, sooner or later I'll have the opportunity to do it myself.
Ning Wuyang waited until the building was almost empty and stopped acting as a guard. "Master An, please say goodbye."
"Mr. Ning, walk slowly, be careful of your feet slipping and spraining your feet." Zhou Anpi threatened with a smile.
Ning Wuyan was not one to be scared.
He is not a reckless man either.
It is better to offend Zhou An openly and openly today than to be submissive and let Zhou An trouble him secretly.
Zhou Jingxian also heard Zhou An's threat and warned coldly: "Cousin, the emperor often teaches us to be courteous to virtuous people. If you are offended by Mr. Ning's poem or words today, I will apologize to you for him. , but if you hold a grudge and suppress him, you will lose the royal dignity."
"Sister Jingxian, you don't need to remind me." If Zhou An wanted to attack Ning Wuyan, he could now find an excuse and ask Ye Tong to send him to prison.
Since the contradiction is on the surface, he will naturally not fall for it.
If an accident occurred during Ning Wu's time, no matter whether it was Zhou An who did it or not, people would be suspicious of it.
Doing it yourself will only dirty his hands, smear his name, and want to kill people with a borrowed knife... Zhou An looked at Ye Tongpan who was walking up the stairs, chuckled, leaned into Zhou Jingxian's ear, and whispered: "Jingxian Sister, you should worry more about yourself. I see that Miss Shen is determined to win over Ning Wushuang. Your father cannot afford to recruit the Shen family."
Zhou Jingxian, who was originally happy because Ning Wuhuang was disturbed at the Gathering of Talents, looked at Shen Youchu, who was caring and caring around Ning Wuhuang, with helplessness and sadness in her eyes.
She could see that Ning Wuhuang was a very affectionate and righteous person.
If she uses the favor she just received to win him over to join her father's camp, he will definitely consider it.
But in this case, the Shen family will definitely avoid suspicion in order not to participate in the battle for the crown prince.
At that time, you will be in a dilemma.
"Jingxian, what are you doing standing there? Mr. Ning and Mr. Xu have gone downstairs." After Shen Youchu spoke to Ning Wuyan, he ran over and took Zhou Jingxian's arm.
Seeing Zhou Jingxian's expression was different, she gave Zhou An an angry look: "Zhou An, this is Jinling, you'd better restrain yourself. If you let me know that you dare to harm Mr. Ning again, be careful and I will go to your father to file a complaint." !”
Shen Youchu didn't wait for Zhou An's reply, and dragged Zhou Jingxian to catch up with Ning Wuchang and his party.
Zhou An, Ning Wuchang and others all left the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. The fake smile on his face finally couldn't be maintained, and he kicked Ye Changlong who was walking towards his knees.
Phew!
Ye Changlong didn't dare to hide at all. He was kicked hard. He covered his chest and coughed. He finally regained his breath and kept begging for mercy: "Master Hou, please have mercy! Master Hou, have mercy on me!"
"Spare your life? If I take your life, can all the students who have left come back?"
When Ye Changlong heard this, he not only shouted in his mouth, but also kept his hands and feet idle. He lay on the ground and kept kowtowing without any ambiguity. Within a few moments, his forehead was completely blue.
Liu Qingfang, who was standing next to him, saw Ye Changlong in such a humble appearance for the first time, and her mind couldn't help but flash back to Ning Wuyan, who was still as tall as a pine, neither humble nor arrogant, when she faced Mr. An Xiaohou just now.
She has never been so regretful, and she has never been so jealous.
Zhou An saw Ye Changlong's humble posture and saw Ye Tongpan move upstairs step by step. Thinking of the Ye family's contribution and what the Ye family could do in the future, he helped Ye Changlong up with his own hands: "I If I didn’t protect Hou’s people, it has nothing to do with you.”
"Little Marquis..." Ye Changlong was flattered and cried with joy.
However, before Ye Changlong's tears could fall, Zhou An issued an order.
