When Qin Yi returned home, he was already in the treetops of the moon, and there were countless stars in the sky, cooperating with the moon to provide the only light for the night.

After dinner, Qin Yi chatted with the family about today's day, including winning the first place and winning the lottery. The family rarely heard such good news, so that Qin Yi's father, Qin Buxian, couldn't help but drink an extra glass or two of wine, and kept muttering in his mouth that his own Zhong Yi was out.

It's no wonder, although Qin Yi is Qin Buharm's appearance, but Qin Buharm is raising him as his own, how many years of parenting, today's son is out, and the expectations in his heart are naturally falling. Of course, Qin Buxian also understands that this may be just the beginning, even if it is the first name of the Chongyang Literary Association and the poems are listed in the "Wenwu Daily", all of this is better than passing the layers of imperial examinations and finally embarking on the road of officials, so as to glorify the ancestors.

Qin Yi naturally understood his father's thoughts, and he comforted him a few words, expressing his determination to participate in the imperial examination and go straight to the palace examination, and then returned to his house. At this time, it was already the middle of the moon, and thousands of households in Xining Town had already turned off their lights and fallen asleep, and the silence at night was terrible. At such a time, Qin Yi followed Ouyang Zhi's advice and carefully took out the red invitation he had given him.

"Prince Xirong Loulan personally wrote, heard about the Chongyang Literary Conference, gathered the famous women of Liu Ruyan Qinglou and students from all over the world, so he sent parents and children to the meeting. Anyone who encounters a person with outstanding talent and learning should be recruited as a staff member of the Loulan Prince's Mansion and be treated as a first-class advisor of the Loulan Prince's Mansion! ”

Qin Yi slowly read the content of the red invitation in his mouth; His face gradually became strange. This is an invitation sent to him by Prince Loulan of Xirong, which can be said to be a naked solicitation.

That's right, in this paragraph, it is to solicit and solicit.

Qin Yi put the invitation aside and fell into deep thought. He was thinking about today's doubts, no wonder the moment he looked at Ouyang Zhi, he felt that he was a little different, and at this moment, he finally got an explanation. It turned out that Ouyang Zhi was the son and son of Prince Xirong Loulan.

In fact, from the very beginning, he had such an idea, feeling that Ouyang Zhi's identity was by no means ordinary, after all, most of Ouyang's compound surname was used by Xirong nobles, and Liangzhou, Yongzhou, and even other areas of the Xia Dynasty rarely appeared. It's just that he didn't expect that Ouyang Zhi would be the son of Prince Loulan. This Prince Loulan is not ordinary, he is the younger brother of the Lord of Xirong, in other words, Ouyang Zhi is the nephew of the current Lord of Xirong.

Such a noble status is equivalent to the nephew of the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty today, how can people not be surprised?

However, Qin Yi was thinking more about the affairs of the land of Xirong. It is an area of vast Gobi and endless steppes, where countless nomads live. But it was these nomads who came together and formed the regime of Xijon more than two hundred years ago.

From that moment on, Xirong and the Xia Dynasty were at war for many years, and it did not stop until the last few decades. But this is only limited to the fact that there will be no large-scale battles, and local wars will still occur.

In other words, the relationship between the current Xia Dynasty and Xirong is very delicate. If you are not careful, war will break out again between the two.

From this point of view, Ouyang Zhi did not come to the Liangzhou boundary under a pseudonym, but he can prove another thing, that is, this delicate relationship is gradually developing in the direction of a truce between them.

This is what Qin Yi naturally wants to see. However, when he thought of the content on this red invitation, he had a headache.

In this period of time in a delicate relationship, not to mention that a talented man like him whose reputation has not yet been spread is a nobody, and he does not dare to go to the land of Xirong without permission, let alone become an official in the land of Xirong. Otherwise, they will be considered collaborators.

Qin Yi naturally didn't dare to provoke this kind of thing, so he refused this invitation in his heart. Moreover, he is only sixteen years old now, and even if he is only visible to the outside, he is not enough to be someone else's staff, so it can be inferred that there must be something unknown behind this.

However, he didn't think about it, whether there was something unknown or not, he understood one thing, that is, the so-called staff, in fact, it was just a bribe.

To put it mildly, it is to sell oneself. If Qin Yi agreed, then in the end, Qin Yi could only stay in the land of Xirong and serve Prince Loulan all the time. This is not the future he wants, being a caged bird, nor is it the ending he wants.

"Alas, Ouyang Zhi is afraid that he has made a mistake!"

Qin Yi sighed secretly in his heart, he understood that he couldn't agree to this kind of solicitation, and he couldn't have any thoughts about inquiring.

"This is Great Xia, not Xirong!"

After finishing talking to himself, Qin Yi picked up the red invitation and put it on top of the candle. Immediately, the flames burned, and the red invitation, as the flames burned, also turned into a pile of ashes.

After doing this thing, Qin Yi went to sleep, and it was only the next morning that he got up and went to Bailu Academy.

According to Ke Zhengshan's request, today he will hand in a poem, the content of which is related to the Double Ninth Festival. Qin Yi didn't worry about it this time, he handed over the poem "Remembering the Brothers of Kuozhou on September 9th" to Ke Zhengshan, and after listening to the comments, he stayed in the academy for another day, and then returned home.

Suddenly, it was September 12.

As Ge Wenqiu said, on this day, the literary supplement of "Wenwu Bao" really came out, and all bookstores had to sell it. In the evening, Qin Yi also bought a copy, and as Ge Wenqiu said, his "Liting Yan: Sifu" and Xue Gui's "Yan Guiliang: Medicine Name Yao Couple" were all included.

"Have you heard, Xue Gui of the Xue family, this time there is a poem published in the literary supplement, and it is said that it is connected by the name of medicinal materials!"

"Xue Gui is really talented, he can do what others can't do, it seems that he will go far on the road to the imperial examination in the future!"

"I heard that on that day, Xue Gui and Qin Yi were fighting in Xining Pavilion, and they were comparing couplets, which can be described as equal. Although I don't know much about the specific situation, there were rumors later that Qin Yi won the first place in the fight, and I don't know if it's true or false! ”

Pedestrians on the road held literary supplements and talked as they walked. The sound of discussion naturally reached Qin Yi's ears. Qin Yi couldn't help but smile, this is probably the so-called, using the Wenhui to spread fame?

He glanced at the contents of the literary supplement, and except for some people who wrote okay, the rest did not have much appreciation value. It's not that Qin Yi thinks highly of himself, but that's the case.

However, this is only a county newspaper and nothing more than a literary supplement, and the next thing is the point, according to the time calculation, the state newspaper should be published on the 15th of this month.

This is also what Qin Yi is looking forward to, he wants to see what kind of impact his couplet will have on him!
