Chapter 028: A Late-Night Visitor

After more than half an hour, the curious students who came to watch dispersed, and Tang Wanrong opened the door and let Xu Xian in.

"Tang Rong, I'll ......" Xu Xian was about to tell Tang Wanrong that he knew her intentions, but Tang Wanrong interrupted him.

"Hehehe," Tang Wanrong let out a few very reluctant laughs, "I made you laugh just now." When I was playing the piano, I remembered my childhood sweetheart who had been secretly in love for a long time, so I couldn't help myself for a while. ”

"How? It's fine if you're okay. Xu Xian was a little embarrassed, but the impulse in his heart had calmed down.

Tang Wanrong forced a smile again and said, "I'm fine." Thank you. By the way, where is your Chunlei guqin? ”

"Ah, stay in the gazebo." Xu Xian woke up and immediately turned around and went out, "I'll go retrieve the guqin." ”

After that, there was no word for the rest of the night.

It's just that after the night of Qixi Festival, Xu Xian faintly noticed that Tang Wanrong began to be a little estranged from him, and he was no longer as close as before.

However, Xu Xian didn't think much about it, almost all of his energy was focused on his studies.

The ancients were not stupid at all than today, they studied those Confucian classics all their lives, and Xu Xian did not think that he could easily surpass them just because he was a time-traveler, even if he had a library in his mind.

Time is in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, it is the end of July.

Xu Xian Xiumu returned to his brother-in-law's house, and Li Xu took out a large stack of invitations and handed them to him.

"All the poetry clubs have sent you invitations, including the most famous Shoushan Poetry Club, Puyuan Poetry Club and Hongshu Poetry Club." Li Xu said, "I heard that the Shoushan Poetry Society is the most authoritative poetry meeting, it is organized by the Liao Mansion of a two-jinshi school, and the talents of Qiantang County are proud to be able to participate in the Shoushan Poetry Society, and almost all the first poems of the Lantern Festival Poetry Society of the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Society are from the Shoushan Poetry Society. ”

"If you don't participate in the Zhilan Poetry Club, it would be great to participate in the Shoushan Poetry Club." Li Xu is a little pity.

Xu Xian smiled: "You can't have both fish and bear's paws. Besides, I don't need to participate in the Shoushan Poetry Club to put gold on my face. ”

He said this with confidence on his face.

There are so many poems about the Mid-Autumn Festival in the library in his mind, and any random poem can make all the talents in Qiantang County unable to raise their heads.

"Don't talk big." Li Xu scolded lightly, obviously disapproving of Xu Xian's rhetoric.

In the afternoon, Ji Gao visited.

After entertaining Ji Gao to sit down and drink tea, Xu Xian asked, "I don't know what Steward Ji commands?" ”

"Don't dare." Ji Gao said politely, "My lord has been very happy since he learned that Xu Gongzi promised to participate in our Zhilan poetry meeting, and he has asked me about your situation many times. I wonder if you have a great work ready for the poetry club? ”

"Thank you for your concern." Xu Xian arched his hand, and then replied, "One or two poems have been prepared, please rest assured that the head of the Ji family and the great steward of Ji." ”

Ji Gao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Can you tell me one or two first?" I'll report to my lord. ”

Xu Xian shook his head with a smile: "No." ”

"Why?" Ji Gao hurriedly asked.

"Of course, the poems of the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Club are to be published at the poetry meeting, and it will be boring to reveal them so early." Xu Xian said with an expression of "isn't it".

Ji Gao was choked, he was worried that Xu Xian's poems were not good, he wanted to speak and stopped, and finally he had to ask again.

But Xu Xian interrupted him and said, "Could it be that the chief steward of Ji doesn't trust Xu? If so, Xu can immediately return the two hundred taels of credit. ”

"How could it be," Ji Gao hurriedly waved his hand and said with a forced smile, "Of course we believe in Xu Gongzi's talent." ”

The Zhilan Poetry Club has been promoting Xu Xian's name for a month, if the poetry meeting officially starts at that time, Xu Xian did not show up, but went to other poetry clubs, he can't imagine what the consequences will be. It's not as simple as messing up the poetry meeting, but it will also affect Ji's cloth because of dishonesty.

Xu Xian smiled: "That's good." ”

He is full of confidence, and he is not coerced by the Zhilan Poetry Club at all.

Ji Gao saw that he couldn't get the poems prepared by Xu Xian, so he had to talk a few words indiscriminately to dilute the tense atmosphere just now, and then found an excuse to leave.

In the evening, Li Gongfu came back, Xu Xian, Li Gongfu and Li Xu had dinner together, and then sat in the courtyard chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

At the end of the night, Xu Xian and the three of them finished chatting and prepared to go back to the room to rest.

Suddenly, there was a knock outside the courtyard gate.

"Who?" Li Gongfu subconsciously raised his voice and shouted.

But no one outside the gate responded, just kept knocking.

"In the middle of the night, I only knocked on the door and didn't make a sound." Li Gongfu cursed in a low voice, then turned back into the house and took his saber, and finally went to open the door very vigilantly.

The door opened a crack in the door, and Li Gongfu finally saw the person coming, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "Yuan ......"

"Shhhhh

Li Gongfu closed the door, turned to look at Li Yuanli, who was dressed in gray clothes, and asked in surprise, "Yuanli, what happened?" ”

"Hehe, it's nothing." Li Yuanli smiled a little embarrassedly, "I heard that Hanwen Xiu Mu is back, so come and have a look." ”

Then, his gaze fell on Xu Xian, and he exclaimed in a somewhat flattering tone, "Hanwen." ”

"I've seen Brother Yuanli." Xu Xian replied with a bowed hand.

Li Yuanli took two steps forward quickly, held Xu Xian's hands, and said with a smile: "My own family, there is no need to be so polite. ”

"I've seen my sister-in-law." He saw Li Xu standing next to him and said hello to Li Xu.

Li Xu made a thousand blessings and said, "Hello Brother Yuanli." ”

Li Gongfu probably guessed the reason why Li Yuanli secretly came to the door in the middle of the night, and sent Li Xu back to the room.

"Hanwen, it's rare for Yuan Li to visit you so sincerely, you are so entertaining, don't be rude." Li Gongfu said to Xu Xian, and then to Li Yuanli, "Yuanli, the foolish brother is busy with official business during the day and his body is tired, so I will not entertain you personally." ”

"Brother Gongfu, please take care of yourself." Li Yuanli bowed his hand gratefully.

When Li Gongfu walked away, Xu Xian arched his hand and said, "Brother Yuanli, please come to my room to talk." ”

"Hehe, that's what the foolish brother means." Li Yuanli smiled in reciprocal terms.

So, Xu Xian led Li Yuanli into his room, and then closed the door.

"Hehe, I haven't seen you for a few months, and the Chinese language has changed a lot." Li Yuanli looked at Xu Xian and said with sincere envy.

This change not only includes the change in Xu Xian's temperament, but also Xu Xian's status. His identity as an ordinary talent is a little unsightly in front of Xu Xian, a disciple of Zhang Jingming.

The song "Drinking the Lake After the Rain" that he bought from Xu Xian finally found a suitable time to publish it three months ago, causing a sensation in the entire Qiantang County and even Lin'an City, and he also gained a reputation that he had never dared to imagine before.

In the past three months, he has become a guest of honor for dignitaries and wealthy businessmen.

The most important thing is that the prestige and fame he gained increased his chances of winning in the imperial examination in the following year.
