"Yongning, it's your turn to go up, there's your seat on it!" Zhao Yuanqi didn't know much about the rules of the Beijing Poetry Club, and when he heard the name of Ji Ning among the guests, he said happily.

Ji Ning stepped onto the stage surrounded by Tang Xie and others, and his ability to go on the stage also attracted the attention of many people, because only Xie Yuan and Yayuan in the current township examination were eligible to be listed as seeded players, and Qin Feng and Wu Bei and others could only stay under the stage even if they thought they were talented.

After Ji Ning came to the stage, he immediately became the target of public criticism, many people were talking, and some people were speculating who these people were.

Zhu Qian was over fifty years old and looked very capable, and as soon as he raised his hand, someone immediately began to invite everyone to the stage.

Ji Ning has his own seat on the stage, but Ji Ning doesn't want to sit on it, because on the stage he is like an actor performing, giving people a very unsteady feeling, but it is easier to wave under the stage.

"Who else hasn't come up? There are still three vacancies in the slots! Zhu Qian finally said that he didn't know whose seat it was for the vacant seat on the stage.

"Let's get started!" Someone under the stage was clamoring, "If these people don't come, it means that they won't come in the end, don't spoil our mood to watch the competition!" ”

"No!" Zhu Qian said, "There are as many people as there are, there are many people participating in the Beijing Poetry Conference this time, and I believe that no one will choose to give up!" Now compare the final list! ”

Ji Ning himself was on the stage, like a soldier being reviewed, and he actually had to come to the conference to take a roll call and compare to see who didn't come, which made him feel a little depressed.

Zhu Qian seems to be a serious person, if anyone doesn't come to the stage, he will immediately check the list to know who didn't come, and with a meticulous appearance, the people under the stage are coaxing, so that even people like Ji Ning who are on the stage can't hear what they are talking about.

Ji Ning looked at the people on the stage, most of them were young people, but they were all in their twenties and nearly thirty, which is also the common age of Xie Yuan and Ya Yuan in various places, and there are very few people like him who can be Xie Yuan before the age of twenty.

In the end, Zhu Qian finally compared the list and knew which people did not come, he seemed to be about to mention this matter to the organizer of the poetry club, and he got off the stage alone, but Ji Ning was thinking in his heart: "If someone will plant gunpowder and detonate it in the place of this Beijing poetry club, there will be many casualties at one time, and it will make the Great Yongchao lose many young talents in an instant." After all, nearly half of the people who came to the capital to participate in the examination in the Great Yong Dynasty came to the Gongyuan area! ”

Because the poetry meeting did not start for a long time, some people on the stage also got off the stage, Ji Ning arrived at the side of the stage, and as soon as he jumped down, Tang Xie and others surrounded him.

"Yongning, why did you come down? Just wait on it for a while, and the poetry will start right away! Zhao Yuanqi seemed to be more anxious than Tang Xie and the others.

Zhao Yuanqi, as the son of King Chong, although he is high and powerful, but just like a canary raised by the royal family, he can not easily leave his fiefdom, because he has not yet taken the title, so he must stay in his father's fief, that is, Jinling City.

He will walk around Jinling City more, but he is not very familiar with the land of the capital, so it is not as good as Tang Xie and the others can only walk.

Tang Xie said curiously: "Yongning knows which people didn't come?" ”

Ji Ning shook his head slightly and said: "Roughly speaking, it is a person from the north, and I don't know which province it is!" ”

"Yes, this kind of Beijing poetry club, since they have all signed up, people haven't come yet, isn't this adding to the chaos?" Han Yu said with some disdain, "The scholars in the north like to find trouble when they have nothing to do, or we scholars in the south talk about the rules and will not do this kind of thing." ”

While he was talking, Zhu Qian went up to the high platform again, and under Zhu Qian's wave of his hand, the silence around the platform was restored again.

Zhu Qian said: "Everyone, there are three people who have not arrived, they are two people from Guanzhong, and one person from Hejian Mansion, so they should abstain, and the rest of the people please go back to you, and the Beijing Poetry Meeting will start immediately!" ”

Ji Ning returned to the stage at this time, sat down in his seat, and looked sideways, and saw Zhao Yuanxuan looking at him expectantly, as if Zhao Yuanxuan was very confident that he could perform well in the poetry meeting.

Everyone quieted down, only listening to Zhu Qian: "The Beijing Poetry Society, since the beginning of the third year of Longtai, has been held for more than 20 sessions, and it is the grandest gathering among the scholars in the north. Since His Majesty's accession to the throne, the people of the country have had plenty of food and clothing......"

As the opening remarks of the poetry meeting, Zhu Qian still habitually sang praises for the imperial court, which is also a necessary program for the poetry club, otherwise a gathering like the poetry club will not be able to pass the imperial court's review.

The students themselves are also considered to be the future ruling class, so they are not too reluctant to sing praises of virtue, but there are already people talking about it under the stage, and the atmosphere is not as enthusiastic as before.

After Zhu Qian said almost, he began to introduce the judges and guests present that day, and the most eye-catching were several scholars from the imperial court and the Confucian Temple, who represented the highest academic level of the Great Yong Dynasty.

A poetry meeting, invited Hanlin there are six people, bachelors are three, and there are some jinshi, the number varies, all of them appear as the main guests, they are all high-spirited, after the stage has to express two sentences, all of a sudden the opening time of the poetry meeting to extend.

In the back, some unknown jinshi came up to speak, and their voices were long overshadowed by the voices of the students who were discussing below.

What Ji Ning cares about is whether the five princes have come, I have listened carefully to the guest list, and I have not heard anyone from the royal family coming, Zhao Yuanqi's brothers and sisters should be the highest in the audience, and their brothers and sisters are still participating in micro-services, as for Princess Wenren Zhao Yuanrong seems to have left, and she has not appeared in Ji Ning's field of vision since the poetry meeting began.

"It's really strange that the people of the royal family said that they were going to come to the poetry meeting, but none of them have shown up until now, could it be that there is something going on in the palace, and they don't show up in the end for political interests?"

Just when Ji Ning was thinking about these things, Zhu Qian announced: "The Beijing Poetry Club has officially begun. I would like to invite Han Hanlin to come up with the first question of the day for us! ”

Ji Ning looked over, but saw that Han Hanlin, who had seen him in the teahouse before, appeared in front of everyone, his status of the people present was relatively high, so he first raised his hands to make the cheers of the people present quieter, and then said with arrogance: "This official was ordered by Li Shi to come to preside over the Beijing Poetry Club and come up with the first question." The Beijing Poetry Club is a grand ceremony for the scholars of my Great Yong Dynasty......"

originally thought that it had begun, and all the scholars were waiting for the scene to compose poems, but as a result, Zhu Qian had just finished talking nonsense, and came out to talk to Han Hanlin again.

The words are basically the same, they are all making a name for the court and the Temple of Literature.
