Records of the King of Xin'an County

According to the rumors, Mr. Zhou Jiyan has always been high-spirited, even in the face of the powerful, he would not easily bow down.The facts are almost the same. This Mr. Zhou is indeed an out-and-out "celebrity" when it comes to talent and temperament.These two, one inside and one outside, complement each other, elevating his reputation even higher, and he seems to have become a figure like Taishan Beidou in the capital.

However, Li Hui did not have a good impression of this "celebrity" highly praised by the Yang family.In his opinion, only those who are like Mr. Song and other hermits who live in poverty, are educated and carefree, can be called real "celebrities".Mr. Zhou tacitly allowed the Yang family to frequently build momentum for him, so he was suspected of trying to gain fame.Every time he accepts an apprentice, he can't wait to spread the word, gather outstanding students from all over the world to select for him, and the honors these talented disciples get make him even higher, which is also contrary to the relationship between Confucius, Mencius and Lao Zhuang. road.

However, from this point of view, he and his grandfather may indeed be called "confidants".It's no wonder that the two were able to talk happily, and they looked at each other high.Of course, it should be the original intention of the Yang family to make friends with Prince Pu, influence Prince Pu's residence, and even secretly trigger some dangerous torrents?

Looking at the two talking and laughing at Yanyan, Li Hui couldn't help letting go of his thoughts, and began to lose his mind in a stately way: every time a literary meeting is held, the courtyard seems to change its layout.It seems that the Yang family is really good to this Mr. Zhou, and it is not just for pure use.To be able to take care of such details, unless the Yang family really cares about Mr. Zhou, he is worth it; or, the Yang family is trying their best to create an image of "respecting the teacher", so as to raise the reputation of Yang Qian and himself again .

Speaking of which, Zixian mentioned in his letter that he wanted to take the provincial examination next year.If Guozijian students want to qualify for the provincial examination, they must pass an internal examination at the end of October before they can be directly recommended by Jijiu.That being the case, he should return to Chang'an within two or three months.

Even though they hadn't seen each other for two years, they exchanged letters almost every month.Therefore, although he felt sad from time to time, and occasionally missed him, he always felt vaguely as if they had never parted.He is still him, and Wang Zixian still hasn't changed much—even if there is a slight change, it must be within the expectation of each other.

Suddenly, a chuckle came from beside him, interrupting his flying thoughts.

"If those people outside have the opportunity to sit in this position, I'm afraid they would like to engrave every word and sentence of Mr. and the king in their minds, and they would not want to look away for a moment. Among all the people participating in the literary meeting, perhaps only the county king Du Mou really admires him for being so chic and at ease."

Li Hui looked back and saw a young man in green clothes standing with a smile on his face. He had a wide robe with big sleeves and fluttering sleeves. He was very elegant and elegant: "It turned out to be Du Shishilang." Du Chongfeng, the third disciple of Mr. Zhou Jiyan, was born Jingzhao Du's insignificant side branch, his parents died early, he was brought up by his uncle, and his fame spread far and wide since he was a child.He is much younger than Yang Qian and Zhang Nian, he is only one year older than Prince Mu, but when it comes to wisdom and talent, Prince Mu has always been ashamed of himself.

If you compare carefully, Du Chongfeng's life experience is very similar to Wang Zixian's, they are both offshoots of a declining top family, but their fortunes are not the same.Not only did he have his uncle's family who really cared for him, but he also successfully joined a famous teacher and received support from the Yang family, and the family completely got rid of their embarrassing life.

However, now his two senior brothers are very outstanding and famous, but he has not been willing to take the imperial examination for a long time, which disappointed many people.Occasionally, I can hear some gossip, saying that he has exhausted his talents, and he is unwilling to take the exam because he is worried that he will ruin the reputation of his teacher.After all, many young geniuses are very likely to disappear from everyone when they grow up.But these jealous people don't seem to have thought about it carefully. The young man in front of him is only 15 years old——

It was still too early for him to soar into the sky, so there was no need to be too anxious.Only after tempering can we go further.

Li Hui felt almost instinctively that this person should become one of the rivals of his close friend Wang Zixian.The youngest boy in the Kingdom Dynasty, the title of Jiadi, is naturally not easy to come by.In addition to Du Chongfeng, there may be many unknown geniuses who are watching, and they also want to knock down Yang Qian in one fell swoop and become a new pinnacle figure.

"I've never been interested in poetry, poetry, and Fu. It's probably just playing the piano to a cow." Li Hui curled the corners of his mouth, indicating that he would allow Du Chongfeng to sit by his side, "Of course, Niu has The leisurely life of cattle, the happy time of horses and horses, no one needs to envy others."

Du Chongfeng's eyes moved slightly: "Listening to the words of the county king, it's like enlightenment, and it should come to light."

"Think about it carefully. You are the only one who always admires me in Chang'an City." Li Hui raised his eyebrows. You, every time you see me, you always say you envy and appreciate me... I always feel very strange."

"No, other people just haven't got to know the county king carefully. From Du's point of view, the county king's choices are all due to his intelligence and sensitivity. Although these choices may not be exactly what the county king wanted, the county king is very good at finding Fun, that's enough." Speaking of this, the two looked at each other, and Du Chongfeng cupped his hands and laughed.

Although it is not in the middle, it is not far away.Li Hui squinted his eyes: It would be a pity to let this person follow Yang Qian, and it will definitely become a big obstacle in the future.However, Du Chongfeng has received so many favors from the Yang family, how could it not be used by the Yang family?Yang Qian's most proud support in the future will be this group of smart and clever juniors, and he will definitely use all kinds of tricks to get their wholehearted loyalty.

At this time, someone beside me laughed and snorted: "As expected of the Du family, after all, they still have some vision. Unlike those blind people who dare to say my brother's fault behind their backs. If you teach me to know who chews this Tongue, will never let them go easily."

The two followed the prestige, but it was an eleven or twelve-year-old young man walking slowly leading a young child.That young gentleman was very delicate, with a condescending look in his eyes, appearing very arrogant.However, his demeanor made people feel very reasonable, and there was no sense of disgust at all.And the child he was holding was only about three or four years old, and they looked very similar to him, and they repeated in a childlike voice: "I will never let them go easily, hmph."

"..." Seeing this, Li Hui sighed softly, "It's really not a surprise to see you here."

"Brother, don't you think it's surprising enough?" Mr. Xiao Lang showed a sly smile, and his arrogance was swept away in an instant, "I managed to find a post and sneaked in with... Twelve Lang. "After that, he nodded slightly to Du Chongfeng, and said reservedly: "A certain Li Shishilang, this is my younger brother Shishilang."

What kind of person is Du Chongfeng, so he can see through his identity at a glance.However, the other party is a golden branch and a jade leaf, and he deliberately concealed his true identity, so he had no choice but to make friends with him as an ordinary young scholar: "A certain Du Chongfeng, I have met... Your Highness." Calling "Your Highness" is better than calling "Your Master" more appropriate.

Li Shishilang chuckled, as if he felt that he had a good look, and he was pleasing to the eye a lot.

"That's all for you, why did you bring Twelve Lang?" Worried that Li Tai, who was obsessed with commenting on poems and songs, would come back to his senses and expose the identities of his "cousins", Li Hui brought this Two worried "little cousins" walked out of the yard.

Du Chongfeng followed beside him not too far away, showing the demeanor of the master.But the three "cousins" didn't have time to pay attention to him, one was busy stretching his arms and pouting like a baby, the other was busy hugging and pampering him, and the other was busy giggling.

Du Chongfeng saw it in his eyes, and his gaze fell on the smiling young gentleman involuntarily - only at this moment, this noble lord would naturally reveal the feeling of pampering the little lady.At any other time, she is aloof, or arrogant, or indifferent, or indifferent, or quiet, but she has never been so relaxed.

At this moment, Wang Zimu walked around the path and saw them head-on, he couldn't help but startled: "Li... Eleventh Lang?" He called out the name of that young gentleman with a little bit of blush on his cheeks.In the past two years, they have only met two or three times, and they are still just strangers.Naturally, he already knew the true identity of this little gentleman—perhaps because of this, every time he saw him, every time he called his pseudonym, he would involuntarily get nervous.

"Wang Sanlang, long time no see." Li Shishilang smiled at him with a very relaxed expression.

Du Chongfeng looked at them thoughtfully.At this time, two people suddenly appeared from the nearby flowers, they were Yang Qian and Yan Zhan.When the two sides saw each other head-on, they were a little surprised.Li Hui and Princess Changning were naturally surprised that Yang Qian and Yan Zhan seemed to have let go of their suspicions and got along very harmoniously; Yang Zhuantou and Yan Dalang were even more surprised that this noble lord would appear in the literary society Carrying another little noble master who has been held in the palm of the saint all the time.

"...I have seen the two highnesses...Yan Dalang, I can only trouble you to entertain these two highnesses." Yang Qian bowed and said to Yan Zhan with a wry smile.Not only is this person of extraordinary status, but he is already engaged.Even if the future son-in-law is not present, it is inconvenient for him as the host to entertain guests.

Yan Zhan could only shake his head, and smiled like a spring breeze: "Go ahead as you are, there are still many guests outside who need to be entertained."

"Chongfeng, Zimu, let's go." Yang Qian then took the two juniors away.

Du Chongfeng and Wang Zimu glanced at each other without any trace, and found that Princess Changning's expression had returned to her former arrogance and indifference, as if the appearance of Qiao Xiaoqianxi had never appeared before.In the eyes of this noble lord, perhaps the handsome and gentle future son-in-law is not much different from strangers like them.

After they left, Princess Changning asked indifferently: "Are you friends with Yang Qian?"

"It's just a matter of face." Yan Zhan replied, "Since he sent the post himself, he has to give him face."

"I don't like the Yang family." Princess Changning said again, very frankly.She never concealed her dislike for Hongnong Yang.

"I understand." Yan Zhan also answered succinctly, like a promise.

At this moment, what Li Hui, who was holding his little cousin in his arms, was thinking in his heart: It really is not suitable to go out today, dealing with people like Yan Zhan is the most boring.He could almost imagine how hard this whole day of writing would be.
