On the second day, Zhao Sulan came back from the palace and told Tang Wanrong the good news.

"Your uncle promised to make some concessions." Zhao Sulan's pretty face, which barely had any traces of time, was a little tired, and said, "If Wang Yun's condition has not recovered before the official marriage next year, I will replace you with another sect girl." If Wang Yun returns to normal, you must marry Wang Yun. ”

"Thank you, mother." Tang Wanrong reluctantly showed some smiles and said, "Mother, you have worked hard. ”

Zhao Sulan smiled and said, "Born in the imperial family, it is an enlightenment to be involuntarily. ”

"Hmm." Tang Wanrong nodded helplessly.

After being silent for a while, Zhao Sulan said: "Since the recovery of the northern territory, the relationship between your uncle and the scholars has become more and more tense. Your marriage, even if you don't marry Wang Yun, will be given to the son of another minister. ”

Tang Wanrong said puzzledly: "Why does my uncle want to fight with the scholars? Didn't the emperor and the scholars get along well? There are also rumors of harmony between the monarch and the minister. ”

"It's politics." Zhao Sulan said, "Your uncle thinks that the scholars have divided too much power and constrained too much, so he wants to take it back, and then concentrate on rejuvenating my Dasheng Kingdom." ”

"Moreover, if our royal family does not fight for it, they will have to inch in and demand more power."

"In the past, in order to recover the northern territory, the former emperor's father delegated a lot of power, which has evolved into today, although the northern territory is recovered, it has also caused great difficulty and uncontrollable for the scholar class."

"If there is an ambitious minister, the consequences are unimaginable." Zhao Sulan said worriedly, "So, you have to understand your uncle's good intentions. ”

Tang Wanrong had a headache when she heard this, she didn't want to participate in these struggles, she just wanted to live quietly.

Zhao Sulan saw that Tang Wanrong was not interested in politics, so she didn't talk any more.

After Tang Wanrong returned to her courtyard, she sat in front of the bronze mirror that was almost a person high, in a daze.

Even if she is not married to Wang Yun, her fate is still like that, she still has to be given a marriage to Li Yun and Liu Yun.

In short, she just can't choose who she likes.

She sometimes thinks that if she hadn't dressed as a man to go to Muyang Academy to study, and hadn't experienced the feeling of being unrestrained, she would not be as miserable as she is now.

Birds have never flown and naturally do not always yearn for the sky.

The personal palace maid Xiao Shen stood behind Tang Wanrong to help her comb three thousand green silks, and after a while, seeing that Tang Wanrong was still in a daze, she couldn't help but persuade: "County lord, in fact, it is not a bad thing for the emperor to give marriage, as long as it is not a dementia." Aren't the eldest princess and the concubine doing well? ”

"Maybe." Tang Wanrong came back to her senses and said ambiguously.

Her mother and her father don't have a good relationship, but they just look respectful in front of outsiders and subordinates.

Her father hadn't been in this eldest princess's mansion for a few days. Her two younger brothers were also not in the eldest princess's mansion, and were taken by her father to live in the Zhenguo mansion.

She didn't understand why her father didn't let her two younger brothers live in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and why her father didn't accept the emperor's uncle's exceptional knighthood of her two younger brothers, but now that she thought about it, she finally understood something.

Although she has the same father and mother, she is a member of the royal family, and her two younger brothers are from the Zhenguo Mansion.

……

After Xu Xian returned to Guozijian, he studied even harder.

After another period of time, entering the wax moon, Guozijian began to rest for a long time, until next year's Lantern Festival.

Many scholars left to go home, and Xu Xian had only arrived in Bianjing for more than a month, so he naturally would not go home easily for the New Year.

Of course, there are also a considerable number of southern scholars who have not returned home, and the southern part of Bianjing Road is far away, especially the road is not safe, and it is easy to encounter robbers and bandits.

Xu Xian kept in touch with a group of southern scholars who were stranded in Bianjing, and often discussed knowledge together, which benefited a lot.

"Master Xu, this is your invitation."

One day, when Xu Xian and a group of scholars and friends were having dinner in a restaurant near Guozijian, suddenly a young man in Tsing Yi went up and delivered an invitation.

Xu Xian was a little puzzled, took the invitation, and the other scholars also quieted down and looked at Xu Xian curiously.

"Laba Poetry Society?" Xu Xian said, knowing that these friends wanted to know what the invitation was.

When the other scholars heard this, they couldn't help but exclaim with envy: "Brother Han Wenxian, congratulations! ”

Xu Xian hadn't finished reading the invitation, so he raised his head and asked, "Will this Laba poem be good?" ”

"Of course!" A group of scholars laughed enviously, but their smiles were a little weird.

Xu Xian was even more puzzled: "Is there anything special about it?" ”

The scholars did not answer immediately, and a scholar who was in Lin'an Mansion with Xu Xian turned his face to the little servant who sent the invitation and said, "Go back and tell your master, Xu Xian agreed to participate." ”

The little girl in Tsing Yi did not leave immediately, but cast an inquiring glance at Xu Xian.

"Hmm." Xu Xian bowed his head to the little guy in Tsing Yi.

The scholar who promised on his behalf was called Huang Song, who was a good friend of him, and I believe that he would not harm him.

After the little girl in Tsing Yi left, all the scholars laughed and said enviously to Xu Xian: "The Laba Poetry Club is a well-known poetry club in Bianjing in the past few years, do you think it is a good poetry club?" ”

Between the words, he is full of yearning for the Laba Poetry Club.

When Xu Xian heard this, he understood why their smiles were a little weird.

He looked down at the invitation again, only to notice that it was Liao Xueyan who sent him the invitation.

"I wonder if Tang Wanrong will participate?" He couldn't help but think to himself.

At this time, a scholar coaxed: "Brother Xu, why don't you have a treat today?" ”

"It's no problem to have a treat." Xu Xian smiled, "However, this poem will not mean much to me, I am already married." ”

"You can still be chic when you get married." The scholars said with contempt, "Which man in the world who has the ability does not have three wives and four concubines?" The emperor is even more exemplary, with seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six courtyards, and three thousand beauties in the harem. ”

A scholar sitting next to Xu Xian leaned into Xu Xian's ear and whispered, "Moreover, some noble ladies are not responsible. ”

Xu Xian could only nod shamefully to be taught.

"There should be other talents invited to participate in the Laba Poetry Society, right?" He listened to the rippling laughter of the group of bad friends, and asked with some concern. If he is alone or two or three people, he will not participate in the petition and will not participate, which will have a bad impact on his reputation.

Huang Song said: "That's for sure, but it won't be much, it's estimated that there are seven or eight people, and it's not fixed." ”

Xu Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

In addition to envy and congratulations, the students asked Xu Xian how to get the invitation of the Laba Poetry Club.

Xu Xian shook his head and said, "It's not that you don't know, even the Laba Poetry Club is what you just said." ”

"Maybe it was Brother Xu and Wang Yuncai who competed some time ago that made those celebrities and ladies interested in Brother Xu." Some scholars speculated.

The other scholars nodded their heads in disagreement.

In fact, Xu Xian probably knew, because it was Liao Xueyan who invited him. It's just that he doesn't want to show off himself and be appreciated by Liao Jin, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. In addition, he had contact with Tang Wanrong that day, and he didn't want too many people to know, so as not to be discovered by someone with a heart.

Of course, what he didn't know was that the song "Butterfly Love Flowers, Leaning on the Dangerous Building" he gave Liao Xueyan was taken out by Liao Xueyan to show off, and it soon spread crazy among the celebrities and nobles in Bianjing.
