Xu Lingyue supported her second elder brother's palm and got out of the car steadily. The brother and sister handed the invitation to the servant at the gate, and entered the mansion under the guidance of the other party.

"Second brother, I've been worrying a lot on this trip, is it because I'm nervous?" Xu Lingyue asked in a low voice.

"Your second brother, I won't be nervous even if I meet the present majesty." Xu Cijiu said calmly, his face was serious, his brows were slightly wrinkled, and he lowered his voice and said to the girl:

"When you're at the banquet, listen more, watch more and talk less. You're just an accompanying female family member, nothing will happen to you, as for me"

As for me, maybe I will be the chief assistant of the court for a while.

In fact, apart from other things, Xu Erlang is a well-deserved leader of his peers just because of his courage and fighting spirit.

The palace is huge, the brother and sister followed the servants for a long time, walked through the corridors and courtyards, and finally came to a garden with rockery and green water, lined with new green leaves and budding flowers, the scenery is quite pleasant.

In the spacious garden, there are clear and bright chanting sounds, as well as the charming laughter of Yingying and Yanyan.

Walking out of the long corridor, Xu Erlang and Xu Lingyue saw two groups of people sitting on the table, and on the left were a dozen scholars in Confucian shirts, all of whom were full of energy and dignified.

On the right is a group of young and beautiful girls in various skirts.

The moment the brothers and sisters of the Xu family appeared on the stage, the atmosphere was obviously stagnant, and the eyes of the young heroes and the young girls lit up.

Xu Erlang frowned. This was a little different from the literary meeting he expected. In his imagination, this literary meeting would be hosted by Wang Shoufu. The tributes who participated in the literary meeting were a little cautious to explain their ideas, Show off your talents.

If he can get the favor of the chief assistant, he will have a backing to enter the court in the future.

I didn't expect the atmosphere of the Wenhui to be so relaxed, delicious food, fresh melons and fruits, and there are so many young girls.

"Master Xu, Miss Xu, please take a seat."

A woman with good facial features and a graceful temperament stood up and saluted gracefully.

She is tall and slender, with a slightly rounded face, quiet and beautiful, and a pair of bright eyes. When she smiles, she has the generosity of a lady, but also has a hint of cunning.

Xu Niannian and Xu Lingyue returned the salute, the former took a look at it, then walked to the seat on the left, picked an empty seat and sat down.

"Xu Huiyuan, I have admired your name for a long time."

As soon as Fang was seated, the surrounding tributes raised their wine glasses one after another.

Sure enough, apart from me, there were no other students from Yunlu Academy. These people were all students from the Imperial Academy.

He chatted with the tributes for a while, and these people surprised him politely, and there was no hidden needle or open provocation.

With Wang Shoufu's power and wisdom, blatant provocation is really low-end. Xu Nian nodded slightly.

On the other side, Xu Lingyue was placed next to Ms. Wang, who smiled gently: "How old is Ms. Xu this year?"

Xu Lingyue said softly, "Seventeen."

Miss Wang immediately said, "Sister Nineteen, I'll call you Sister Lingyue, okay?"

Who is she? Xu Lingyue smiled and said, "Listen to my sister."

Miss Wang smiled more enthusiastically, and said, "Then you can call me Sister Simu."

After chatting for a few words, Xu Lingyue knew who this gentle and amiable woman was, she was actually the first daughter of Wang Zhenwen, the chief assistant.

"Sister Lingyue is married?" Miss Wang asked suddenly.

Xu Lingyue bowed her head in shame: "Not yet married."

If it were a man asking her this question, Xu Lingyue would definitely be angry, but there were women all around her, and their voices were low. Most importantly, the other party was the daughter of the Wang family.

Ms. Wang was surprised and said: "The elder brothers in the family must be engaged, and the younger sister has to hurry up."

Xu Lingyue glanced at her, shook her head and said, "The two elder brothers are not married yet."

Miss Wang, who has not yet become a prince, said calmly: "With the talents of the two young masters of the Xu family, they must have already been engaged."

The surrounding girls quietly pricked up their ears.

Whether it was the impeccably handsome Xu New Year, or the heroic Xu Qi'an, the latter was the latter, who had just experienced a fight, and the noble women in the capital were extremely "curious" about him.

Miss Wang smiled sweetly.

However, there are exceptions to everything, and there is a Shaoyang man in purple who said:

"The Xu family has leaped into the dragon's gate. Then Xu Qi'an was just a fast hand in Changle County, and Xu Pingzhi was just a family of guards with swords. In such a family, Miss Xu will be lucky to marry a merchant's family in the future. Now, say no You must be able to join the rich family."

Xu Lingyue couldn't figure out the girl's background, so she made an aggrieved gesture and lowered her head.

Seeing this, the rest of the daughters were a little displeased with the purple-clothed girl.

Ms. Wang narrowed her eyes and said softly, "Yan'er, please speak well, sister Lingyue. Yan'er is the niece of the Minister of Justice."

Xu Lingyue, the niece of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, was moved in her heart, remembering that Zhou Li, the son of the servant of the Ministry of Justice, colluded with the Ministry of Justice and locked her eldest brother in the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

It turned out to be an enemy.

"Sister Yan'er is straightforward, and she is right." Xu Lingyue shook her head, forced herself to suppress her grievances, and smiled:

"My eldest brother is a first-time martial artist, and my second brother has no official position."

The girl named Yan'er was at a loss for words for a while, if she took up this topic, she would have to continue to mock Xu Qi'an and Xu New Year in front of the audience, one was at the table, and the other was in full swing.

"Okay, let's drink tea." Ms. Wang forcibly ended the topic.

The literary meeting went on as usual, and the scholars talked about national affairs from poems, and occasionally interacted with ladies and gentlemen, and the scene was quite happy.

Xu Nian found that he had a pleasant conversation, so he made an excuse, saying that the garden had a nice view, and went aside with his glass of wine, thinking about what Wang Shoufu's conspiracy was up to.

"The flowering period is approaching, but it withered?" He stared at a pool of withered lotus leaves in a daze.

At this time, a gentle voice came from behind: "This is the red lotus in Qingzhou. It blooms only in mid-winter and withers in spring. However, the climate in the capital is very different from Qingzhou. The red lotus does not grow well and has little ornamental value."

Looking back, it was the woman with good facial features.

Xu Nian now knew his identity, bowed and said, "Miss Wang."

"Call me Simu," she said.

Xu Nian said, "Miss Simu."

Wang Simu smiled sweetly, looked at the gifted scholars and beauties who had left their seats to enjoy the scenery, and said softly: "Mr.

"When it comes to poetry, my eldest brother is the best." After Xu Erlang finished speaking, he said reservedly: "However, writing is a natural thing, and if you have a good hand, you can get it by chance, and I also have a good hand to get it by chance."

Xu Erlang felt at ease to use his eldest brother's things to show his holiness in front of others.
