Chapter 116: Premeditated?

Chen Ji didn't have a sense of crisis, his hands behind his head, leaning against the wall of the car, crossing Erlang's legs, and humming an unknown song in his mouth. Shen Qiu was worried, and opened his mouth several times to speak, but he didn't blurt it out. Swallowing his saliva, Shen Qiu also followed Chen Ji's example, squinted his eyes, and was out of sight and out of mind.

Zhanyuan, Qingzhou City's slightly literate talents, this will all arrive one after another, and they are divided into different circles according to their talents. They are in groups of three or five, each with a so-called backbone.

Compared with Qingxiushan Farm, Zhanyuan has to meet the requirements of the assembly. Pavilions and pavilions, gurgling water, rockery flying stones dotted everywhere, and various man-made traces of appropriate benefits, complement each other.

A house in the core area, which was originally the summer retreat of the Zhanguo Mansion, has also opened most of the area to the outside world, and on the polo field outside, the surrounding stands are currently being decorated. Probably in preparation for the evening poetry meeting.

Liu Ziqing is a rising star of Qingzhou Shilin, it is said that the last time the great master of Tixue passed by Qingzhou, he specially summoned Qingzhou scholars in the Minglun Hall of Fuxue, and Liu Ziqing was one of the few people standing in the front row. Of course, whether or not there has been a relationship with the great grandmaster, there are different theories. However, with this relationship, it is also tired of a lot of reputation.

Several small groups in Qingzhou Shilin now have a place for him. At the moment, he can be regarded as a decent person who has been posted by Zhanyuan.

Therefore, when they saw that Hou Mingyu, the prefect's son, was also there, this small group also had some thoughts. Hou Mingyu abandoned them and turned to make friends with a general judge, probably losing the face of them, who were also scholars. And that Chen Gongzi didn't learn anything, but he actually learned to be a businessman.

If those big families are good, and the family has such and such industries, there will definitely be such and such thoughts of these poor children.

Hou Mingyu is the identity of a prefect in the end, usually when everyone is in the house, they have also accumulated some fame with articles, although they have encountered many things in the past year, and participating in the gathering of this kind of literati is not in the way, no matter what, how many friends should be damned.

At the moment, several people gathered in one place, occupying a small pavilion to watch the game, talking and laughing, and most of the content had nothing to do with learning. complained that I hadn't been able to go shopping together for a long time, and then I asked how the business was doing recently. is not only worried that he will fall deeper and deeper, but also lose his capital. There is also part of the reason that Hou Mingyu picked up a lot of wool from them at the beginning, and he was considered to have invested in it.

Speaking of these now, it's also a real joke.

For them, that bit of silver is a lot, but it's just a few trips around. In other words, there is also a slight side knock, which is probably a pity.

Hou Mingyu listened to it in his ears, but he could only speak more bluntly, frowned, and sighed: "The newspapers sent to your homes every day, the manuscripts of "Stone Records" given to you in private, and so on, are they not your rewards?" What else do you want? Asking for money is not. ”

The last sentence was cold, and it was really like that.

Yang Tao has been shrinking at the end, occasionally being mentioned and responding, but he is absent-minded, and it is inevitable that he will be laughed and scolded a few times, especially when applying for Hou Mingyu, the laughter and scolding here will probably be a little more sarcastic.

Yang Tao didn't mind.

Unlike most of the people here, he is not a wealthy family, and the article is also ordinary, and being able to mix with these people in front of him is due to Hou Mingyu's credit in the final analysis. And in terms of the whole Qingzhou, their small group is the most direct, the most harmonious, and the most able to support each other. No matter what aspect it is, it is just commonplace, and they are usually busy, and it is only on this relatively large occasion that they can be seen together. Teasing each other for a while, and then telling some idle stories that I have heard recently, I have a very good ability to arrange. Hou Mingyu asked them to help write some "entertainment notes", and the recent newspaper, according to Chen Ji's words, the entertainment sector has some muscle weakness.

It's just that this can only be a thought, if you really want them to write, maybe how to arrange him into it, when the time comes, you have to pay the money, but also have to bear the "infamy", this is definitely a loss-making deal.

Yang Tao was the first to notice Liu Ziqing and a few people on the opposite side.

Looking at it like that, it seemed that they were still discussing countermeasures, and when they looked back and saw that everyone was chatting happily, they didn't make a loud reminder, so I told them to be happy for a while.

Xu Yansong said with a smile: "Brother to brother, there is no such thing as you, I cried like a certain oiran that was forcibly bought in the Chunyuan Building, but now that the crisis has passed, it is like someone who forcibly bought a certain oiran at the beginning."

This was a little twisty, and everyone present laughed, and each nodded in agreement, indicating that this statement was very innovative and appropriate.

Yang Tao glanced back.

Xu Yansong sighed, "People's hearts are not ancient", and said: "Hou Mingyu, you are not kind."

Hou Mingyu glared back and said, "If you want to borrow a book from me next time, I won't have it."

Xu Yansong immediately shut up, and then laughed again.

There was another burst of laughter.

Yang Tao shook his head.

Wu Xianqiao took over the topic, and finally said something serious, "Recently, a few friends from the Han Society are interested in meeting with Brother Chen, Mingyu, you have to help introduce you." ”

Hou Mingyu was slightly stunned, he had heard about the matter between Chen Ji and Hanshe earlier, would this be pretending to be confused, and asked at the moment: "Haven't you already seen it?" Where did the introduction come from? ”

Wu Xianqiao smiled bitterly: "At that time, it was Xue Jinxue who took the lead, but they met, but they talked about the publication of the Han Society's anthology in Zhizhi Bookstore, and some other things were mentioned during the period, but Brother Chen seemed to be a little conservative about the Han Society, and the two sides had some reservations about what they discussed."

Hou Mingyu thought for a while and said: "In my opinion, I'm afraid that your Han Society doesn't look down on others, people are just a showman now, if your Han Society absorbs people, I'm afraid there will be problems in the future." Because of this kind of thinking that it looks quite normal, it makes sense to turn people away. ”

Wu Xianqiao smiled bitterly: "There may also be considerations in this regard." I said that after all, it doesn't matter, and Qingzhou still has to listen to the orders of the Jinan head office. ”

"Gentlemen do a good job of forming associations or not forming parties."

Wu Xianqiao Quan should be praising them.

Hou Mingyu turned to say: "I'm probably going back to Qingxiu Mountain later, if you don't mind, you can go with me." For the so-called Han Society, he Hou Mingyu doesn't like to get involved in these things.

Wu Xianqiao was surprised: "I heard that there is a big guessing meeting tonight, you don't plan to participate?"

"It's boring. Now that I'm staying here, it's just the meaning of the old man at home, and I can't help it. ”

I mean it.

A few of them didn't say anything to him anymore.

Wu Xianqiao glanced at Xu Yansong and asked, "What do you say?"

Yang Tao opened his mouth first and said, "Actually, you can go and have a look."

Several people's eyes fell on him, and Yang Tao walked over from the railing and sat down next to Wu Xianqiao.

"Stuffy gourd turns out to have something you like?"

Xu Yansong said this.

A few people thought so.

Wu Xianqiao laughed first.

Yang Tao took a sip of the teacup in front of him, "If you stay here any longer, I'm afraid there will be changes." With that, a few people followed his line of sight, and a group of people were already walking towards him.

Xu Yansong sighed at the two of them, stared at them and said, "You said that it will be Wendou later?" Or martial arts? ”

Chen Ji walked from a distance, and at first glance, he found Hou Mingyu's figure, and greeted: "Hou Shao, don't come unharmed."

Hou Mingyu looked back when he heard the voice, and frowned.

Xu Yansong also turned around and asked with a smile: "The old man is good."

Hou Mingyu slapped it, "The dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth." ”

Xu Yansong dodged back, almost retracting into Wu Xianqiao's arms.

Wu Xianqiao felt a chill and almost fell to the ground.

Yang Tao stretched out his hand to help.

Chen Ji has come to the front.

Liu Ziqing and the others paused slightly, and also continued to walk.

Chen Ji stopped outside the pavilion, after all, someone happened to be coming from the opposite side. He looked at Hou Mingyu and asked with a smile, "Is the old man good?"

probably heard what Xu Yansong said before.

Hou Mingyu's face turned dark.

Xu Yansong felt that he was really "a man of my generation". Immediately got up to greet him and hugged Chen Ji.

Chen Ji didn't dodge it, and let Xu Yansong hook his shoulders like this.

Hou Mingyu's face sank: "Are you a dog skin plaster?" I love sticking it so much! ”

I don't know who I'm talking to about this.

On the other side, Liu Ziqing's face flashed with embarrassment, but he came over to meet him, and after a few words of greeting, he turned around and left.

Yang Tao and the others got up one after another, nodded their heads, and Xu Yansong walked over with Chen Ji in his arms and introduced them one by one. Finally, he glanced at the back of Liu Ziqing, who was leaving, and said with a smile: "I have to thank Brother Chen, otherwise it would be Xiucai who met a soldier, and it is unreasonable."

Chen Ji smiled and said, "It's easy to say."

Hou Mingyu's face changed again.

Chen Ji found a vacant seat and sat down, and said a few polite words to a few people around him, but he was familiar with it, and asked: "I heard that there is a big poetry meeting tonight, how are you prepared?"

Xu Yansong said curiously: "Brother Chen plans to participate?"

Chen Ji smiled: "Is there any problem?"

Xu Yansong was stunned, looked at Hou Mingyu, and asked for a solution.

Hou Mingyu didn't bother to pay attention.

Yang Tao smiled: "Since Brother Chen has this plan, it seems that he is prepared."

Chen Ji squinted his eyes and smiled: "I am indeed prepared." Then mentioned Xiucai, looked at it in front of him, took out a piece of paper from it, and was about to hand it to a few people around him to circulate.

Shen Qiu, who caught up from behind, rubbed his forehead, he really didn't have that face.

When Yang Tao saw this, he groaned slightly, stretched out his hand to take it, glanced at it, his forehead was already bulging, and in the next moment, his complexion became strange.

Seeing this, Wu Xianqiao leaned his head. Yang Tao took it and didn't let him see it, and only after a moment did he say with a smile: "Brother Wu, later, later."

Seeing this, Wu Xianqiao instinctively thought that it was a refreshing and good lyric, but he was a little expectant, Yang Tao was among them, and he was always a little too rigorous, and to put it bluntly, he wouldn't even joke.

In this way, Hou Mingyu was also a little curious. Even if he knew Chen Ji's level, it was impossible to write anything good. After all, the guy came over with the article he wrote, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Little brother, look at what you did?" ”

What Hou Mingyu said to him at that time was also straightforward, and said sternly: "I really don't know how much silver your family helped you to get this talent!"

But then again, who hasn't had a flash of inspiration.

Yang Tao's face was serious, and he swept it for a while, looking like he wanted to say something. Finally, he sighed, swept over the audience, and sighed twice.

A few people hung their appetites.

Xu Yansong stood up, grabbed it, glanced at it, and threw it directly to Wu Xianqiao, "Old Wu, you are relatively high, you can come and see." ”

Wu Xianqiao took it, a little dazed.

Chen Ji looked at him infatuatedly.

Wu Xianqiao suddenly had a bad premonition.

A moment later, sure enough.

"How?" Chen Ji asked with a smile.

Wu Xianqiao looked at everyone and handed the lyrics to Hou Mingyu, "Let's Mingyu comment." ”

Hou Mingyu took it, only glanced at it, and immediately slapped the words on the table, and said, "You are a person who doesn't learn and can't do anything."

This sentence is old-fashioned.

Chen Ji put the paper back and affirmed himself: "You must be jealous of my talent."

Several people looked at each other and laughed.

Hou Mingyu scoffed.

Chen Ji slowly folded the paper in half, shook it in front of several people's eyes, beckoned Shen Qiu to come over, and handed the paper over.

Shen Qiu put it away, his face was embarrassed, and he really wanted to apologize to his young master to the people present.

Getting back to the point, Chen Ji collected his thoughts and said to Hou Mingyu: "Over there in Qingxiu Mountain, I'm afraid there will be some things, if you are free, go over and have a look."

Hou Mingyu said: "Why should I go?"

"I'm not busy attending poetry meetings."

Hou Mingyu didn't think so, just your shameless appearance, you really want to be angry when you see too much.

Chen Ji followed: "Later, the results of the competition over there will come out, and an award is still needed."

Hou Mingyu glared.

Chen Ji stopped talking to him directly.

Yang Tao and the others moved away a little, and said in their hearts: "Isn't this just a conversation that only happens between old friends?"

Xu Yansong sighed twice, "It's greasy." ”

Hou Mingyu looked over, and Xu Yansong was immediately silent.

A little cold for a while, Wu Xianqiao pondered for a moment, and said loudly: "Brother Chen, the few anthologies of the Han Society this month, I'm afraid there is still a lot of attention from Lao Zhizhi Bookstore, and Jinan is a little tight."

Chen Ji smiled: "Brother Wu, rest assured, this matter is a win-win situation for both parties, and it will not be difficult for Brother Wu to do."

Wu Xianqiao smiled bitterly: "Recently, there have been some voices in the city, and I am quite worried that Brother Chen will think too much."

Chen Ji shook his head and said, "It's okay." I'm afraid that the rhetoric about me over the years is enough to make up 100,000 words. But as for the Han Society, I'm going to disappoint you. ”

Wu Xianqiao was stunned: "Why did Brother Chen say this?"

"In a short period of time, Chen will not be able to join the company."

Wu Xianqiao said: "Brother Chen is too modest."

Xu Yansong rubbed his forehead, he couldn't get used to these polite words, and said loudly: "It's good to talk."

Yang Tao coughed lightly, everyone looked up, and at the other end of the water pavilion, Song Duanyou, the eldest prince of the Zhanguo Mansion, was walking over under the arch guard of a group of people.

There are many "acquaintances", and Chen Ji came over with a shy face last year, and they have all been seen from afar.
