Zhao Xuanyi took it over and opened it, his eyebrows instantly furrowed. It was from Li Wenzhou, meaning he hadn't been back to the capital for a long time and wanted to invite these old friends to get together?
Have a simple book party! After Zhao Xuanyi read it, he handed the invitation to Shen Wei. Shen Wei also frowned after reading it.
"Young Master, according to my wishes, we are not going! Who is Li Wenzhou? That was his idea in the blink of an eye. This person is too dangerous!" Zi Yuan also nodded.
"Without good wine, there is no good party! No matter how you look at it, it's just a Hongmen Banquet!" Zhao Xuanyi sat on the chair and thought for a long time. If he didn't go, it would be easy. He could just find any reason, just be busy with official duties!
But if you really don’t go, you always feel like you’ve given up! I have some strength now, and I really can’t afford to lose this person by admitting defeat in front of this group of scholars!
"Go! No matter what happens, they won't kill me at this book party!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"Young Master, please think carefully. Li Wenzhou can't just invite you, Ye Yaoming must be there! There may be others, and you will probably offend a lot of people!"
"Am I afraid of them? Now that the Qilin Guard's strength has greatly increased, I'm thinking about who will touch me, pick up their corpses, and polish the sign of my Qilin Guard! I want to see who of them dares to mess with me! I just don't have it. I'm so angry!" Zhao Xuanyi said very domineeringly.
Shen Wei thought about it carefully, and it was right! With the current strength of Zhao Xuanyi, except for the royal family and nobles, no one else really dared to touch him, but Shen Wei did not dare to say it, but looked at Zi Yuan.
Zi Yuan is also worried. Zhao Xuanyi was assassinated during the last book meeting, so something might happen this time!
"Uncle, if you want to go, put on the soft gold silk armor, just in case!"
"Are you kidding? I haven't taken this thing off since it came into my hands!" Zhao Xuanyi opened the clothes on his chest and exposed the gold soft armor inside. When everyone saw it, they all laughed, and they didn't know this guy. Where did you get the courage to say this?
The book meeting was in the evening. Zhao Xuanyi took a rest in the afternoon. Seeing that the time was about the same, he changed into new clothes under Zi Yuan's service. Zi Yuan even looked to see if Zhao Xuanyi was wearing soft gold silk armor!
"Should we let Tang Tianli lead someone to protect him in the dark?" Zi Yuan asked with some fear.
"No need! They are more worried that something will happen to me than me!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile. Zi Yuan sighed, Zhao Xuanyi was really brave now.
Zhao Xuanyi turned to look at Du Xinyu
"Change into that blue skirt and come with me!" Du Xinyu blinked, a little unbelievable
"Take me?" Du Xinyu asked, pointing to her little face. Ziyuan stared at Zhao Xuanyi
"What are you taking her for?" Zhao Xuanyi smiled mysteriously. Although Du Xinyu is not old, her talent is not comparable to that of her peers.
"It's best to take her with you on this occasion!" After hearing this, Zi Yuan hesitated for a few seconds.
"That's right, if there is a killer, use her to block the knife!"
"..." Du Xinyu didn't want to go! Zhao Xuanyi was wearing a snow-white gown, with a piece of beautiful jade around his waist. He was holding the precious folding fan in his hand, with a Yin-Yang blood stone hanging underneath. He was dressed like a Confucian, and with such a precious fan, he looked very good. He looks like a man who has been reading poetry for a long time!
Du Xinyu put on a sapphire blue dress and an emerald butterfly hairpin on her head. Zhao Xuanyi also specially changed Du Xinyu's hairstyle, which is the most common modern double ponytail!
Coupled with that cute face, Zhao Xuanyi really likes it. Girls in ancient times were used to leaving two braids. This kind of double ponytail style is still very rare!
Du Xinyu shook her hair. She obviously liked this new hairstyle too.
"Does it look good?"
"In the future, you are not allowed to change your hairstyle unless I give you permission! This is an order!" Zhao Xuanyi said very domineeringly, but he was already imagining in his mind that if he added a miniskirt and black stockings, he would be an absolute otaku killer!
The venue of the book meeting was set in Shanhai Academy. Because it was a gathering of literati, Zhao Xuanyi did not bring many people. He only asked Shen Wei and Jinglan to follow. With these two protecting him, there was no need for anyone else!
The carriage was ready. Zhao Xuanyi pulled Du Xinyu into the carriage. Shen Wei and Jinglan sat outside, one on the left and the other on the right. Zi Yuan put a signal bomb in Shen Wei's hand.
"Brother Shen, if something unexpected happens, send the signal and I will arrive with my people as soon as possible!" Shen Wei put the signal bomb in his sleeve
"Don't worry! If something happens, I will try my best to send the young master back!" After Shen Wei finished speaking, he flicked the reins and the carriage began to move slowly!
Du Xinyu sat in the carriage and looked at Zhao Xuanyi next to him
"Sir, what do you do in this kind of book club? Recite poems and compete against each other? Or compete in calligraphy?" Zhao Xuanyi smiled and patted his thigh gently. Du Xinyu's face turned red and she stood up and sat on Zhao Xuanyi's lap. Zhao Xuanyi held Du Xinyu in his arms. With such a cute creature, all cats and dogs could be moved aside!
Zhao Xuanyi gently stroked Du Xinyu's hair
"Do you think too highly of this group of scholars? What kind of book club is it? It's just a gimmick made by a group of distinguished people. How many people actually go to talk about literature? It's just open admiration and private ridicule. !”
"Check with each other and see how others are doing lately? If your strength increases, take the opportunity to climb high. If you lose your reputation, then turn your back on yourself! Write a few words on the banquet, say a few lines of poetry, just pretend! "Du Xinyu was very surprised after hearing this.
"I thought making tea, burning incense, and printing ink! That's what a book club is!"
"You are talking about a group of scholars, right? Who is the serious scholar in today's book meeting? All of them are either generals or powerful men in the government and the public. How can there be any serious people?" Du Xinyu turned to look at Zhao Xuanyi and smiled.
"Young Master is not a serious person!" Only then did Zhao Xuanyi realize. Wasn't he scolding himself? Grabbing Du Xinyu's cheek with his big hand
"Laughing at me? I won't give you chicken legs tomorrow!"
"No, no, no! I don't dare anymore!" Du Xinyu took the initiative to kiss Zhao Xuanyi on the cheek, and Zhao Xuanyi smiled.
The carriage arrived at the gate of Shanhai Academy. Shen Wei stopped the carriage and saw several carriages parked on the street. If he looked carefully, they were all very familiar.
"Young Master, we're here!" Zhao Xuanyi walked out of the carriage. Shen Wei stretched out his hand to help Zhao Xuanyi get out of the carriage. Zhao Xuanyi turned around and hugged Du Xinyu down. He took Du Xinyu's little hand and walked towards the door!
Zhao Xuanyi looked up and saw that Shanhai Academy had been decorated today. There were a row of bright lanterns on the wall, and four young scholars stood at the door. They were all well-dressed and elegant, and they were students!
Zhao Xuanyi came to the door and handed over his invitation. After checking it, the book boy hurriedly smiled and spoke.
"It turns out to be the famous General Xiangyun, please come in!"
"Excuse me!" After Zhao Xuanyi said that, he took Du Xinyu and followed the book boy in. Shen Wei and Jinglan were sitting on the carriage, waiting for Zhao Xuanyi to come out. After all, their status would not let them in!
Du Xinyu looked at the young man in front of her and asked in a low voice
"Is this serious?"
"How about you go and ask?" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile. Du Xinyu rolled her eyes at Zhao Xuanyi and stopped talking. Shanhai Academy is one of the three major academies in Beijing. After walking in, she saw the decoration in the courtyard, which was very elegant.
There are rockeries, pavilions and pavilions with a very bookish atmosphere. There are various representative buildings on the roadside, such as the Thousand-Character Monument, the Ink Washing Pond, the Green Bamboo Forest, and the Gentleman's Sword. Du Xinyu's journey along the way has been an eye-opener. There are many that she has only seen in What I saw in books, I saw in real life today!
Du Xinyu took Zhao Xuanyi's hand and pointed to the unknown ancient characters engraved on the side.
"Sir, what is written on this?"
"Who the hell knows!" It's not that Zhao Xuanyi is cold, it's that he really doesn't know him, he's just like a tadpole writer!
When Du Xinyu heard Zhao Xuanyi's answer, she covered her mouth and smiled. This young master's appearance and conversation were completely different!
After walking across the stone bridge and coming to the hall, Zhao Xuanyi just walked in and found that a group of people in the room had stood up. Li Wenzhou walked over enthusiastically.
"Oh, Young Master Zhao... no, no, no, I should call you General Zhao now. It's been a long time since I last saw you. The last time I saw you, I called you Young Master. Now you are a famous general in the country!" Zhao Xuanyi cupped his fists.
"Master Li, it's been a long time no see. You disappeared without a trace. Where did you go?"
"Hahaha! I'm just an idle person. I wander around every day. Unlike you, I worry and work hard every day about national affairs. I can't compare with you!" Li Wenzhou still looked mysterious. After saying so many words, it was as if he hadn't said anything at all. !
The second person who came up to say hello was none other than Ye Yaoming
"General Zhao, we may not have seen each other for a long time. How are you doing?" Ye Yaoming finished speaking with a mocking smile on his face.
When Zhao Xuanyi saw Ye Yaoming, he thought to himself, "You have nothing to say, right?" I've been assassinated a few times, okay?
"Mr. Ye, we haven't seen each other for a long time. The last time we met, your brother was attending my brother's wedding banquet! Haha, how are you doing, brother?" After Ye Yaoming heard this, his anger instantly ignited, and he thought to himself, can you please say that?
You are really wicked to ask my brother to serve you as a slave, you thought so in your heart, but you didn't dare to show it on your face, you still had a smile on your face
"so far so good!"
"General Zhao! We haven't seen each other for a while!" A man came over. Zhao Xuanyi took a look, Qi Mingshan?
I haven’t seen this for a while, almost half a year! In fact, Zhao Xuanyi knew in his heart that Qi Mingshan looked like a handsome young man, but in fact he was a character that people should be wary of!
He obviously has such a prominent background, but his reputation is not widely heard in the capital, or even in the entire Ming Dynasty. A person who is so good at hiding cannot be an ordinary character!
"Mr. Qi, long time no see, long time no see! How are you doing?" Zhao Xuanyi greeted with a smile. There is no need to hurt him if he doesn't like him!
"TOEFL, everything is fine!" Qi Mingshan looked down and saw a beautiful little girl beside Zhao Xuanyi. She looked really Shuiling.
"Oh, where did such a beautiful little girl come from?" Everyone noticed that Zhao Xuanyi brought a beautiful little girl. For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Du Xinyu. Du Xinyu was also a eldest lady, so for I am not afraid of this strong sense of oppression at all!
"Hello, gentlemen, my name is Du Xinyu, and I am the maid of my Mr. Zhao!" Du Xinyu introduced herself generously.
"Wow! Mr. Zhao, you can do it! Where did you get such a beautiful maid? Can you deceive me one if you have time?" Qi Mingshan said with a smile.
Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly pulled Du Xinyu to his side
"Don't take my maid's attention away! I finally picked this up on the roadside!"
"Hahaha...!" Everyone laughed. Who would take the joke seriously? Li Wenzhou said hurriedly
"Master Zhao, come here, come here, let me introduce two friends to you!" Li Wenzhou invited the two people over and pointed at a woman wearing a pink dress.
"This is my friend, Miss Qing!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at the girl carefully. She had a fair face and two obsidian eyes. Although the eyes were beautiful, there was an icy air in her eyes, which was unique. A sloppy nose, a pair of sexy lips, and a very beautiful face, but the whole face gives people an aristocratic feeling!
Wearing a pink dress and two fair arms with gauze, she looked like she had just fallen into the world. Although she was dressed like a fairy, Zhao Xuanyi always felt that this woman had a dangerous aura!
"Miss Qing? Hello!" Zhao Xuanyi smiled and nodded. Qingzai looked at Zhao Xuanyi carefully.
"Mr. Zhao, I have long heard about your Ming Dynasty. You can write a pen to fight against the Confucian scholars, and you can fight the foreign troops with your military skills. Now you are the leader of our new generation in the Ming Dynasty!"
