Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Golden Wisp is in the middle

The Wenhui is going very smoothly, or Wan Cong is about to succeed as expected, and everything is going according to his heart.

Whether it was the defeat of the talented people from all over the Ming Dynasty, or the support of the officials in the capital, they were all seen by Wan Cong, and then they were safely endured, because these were what he deserved.

At this point, the meeting is probably not interesting. Even the many scholars standing outside the door were already tired, and although they had the opportunity to send the article into the building, they obviously lacked some self-confidence.

Sitting in the carriage, the young man with his chin in his hands has always had unlimited energy, and he seems to be sick and weak, but in fact, he has already danced and scolded those articles that are moaning without illness.

Fortunately, Zhang Juzheng, who was standing on one side, was in the way, otherwise he would really write a few articles on the way to govern the country and cultivate himself, so that these literati who are in the wind and snow can see how to write articles.

Fortunately, the literary meeting finally came to an end, and the young man no longer bothered that those articles were really no bright spots, so he looked at the restaurant with his face open, and he was a little anxious.

"Mr. Shen hasn't come yet"

Zhang Juzheng was stunned for a moment, nodded hurriedly, and said: "It stands to reason that he should also come over, maybe it will take a while."

As they were talking, the two of them saw Wan Cong, who had changed into a plain clean dress again, slowly walked onto the high platform, and said loudly: "The Wenhui should probably come to an end here, and you will definitely be the pillars of the country in the future."

In the private room, Yang Bo glanced at Wan Cong on the high platform very unhappily, and chuckled: "It's really a shame to let this kid walk around with his nose pulled tonight."

Lu Tiaoyang didn't have a good time on his face, but at least he snorted lightly and muttered: "The key depends on who is standing behind this kid, not to mention being led around in such a circle, even if you are a monkey, I will have to bear it." ”

"Gao Gong, he is better than Yan Song back then," Yang Bo said angrily.

Lu Tiaoyang shook his head and chuckled: "Gao Gong is much smarter than Yan Song, Yan Song is just a dog of the first emperor, and Gao Gong is His Majesty's teacher, what else can you and I do now, Your Majesty?"

Yang Bo raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Lu Tiaoyang, although this old-fashioned old man is stubborn, he rarely disagrees with the times, and he will evaluate Gao Gong like this today. But he was really forced to be helpless.

When the two of them were so sneering, they heard Wan Cong say loudly: "Although you are all extremely talented, but the name of the first genius in the capital has to say that you and I of course recommend Mr. Shen Wuyan."

Shen Wuyan's name was a place, and suddenly there was an uproar inside and outside the building, among which there were many Beijing officials who were interested in befriending Shen Wuyan back then, and there were also many scholars who admired Shen Wuyan.

These rookies in the literary world who came all the way from all over the Ming Dynasty have naturally read a lot of Shen Wuyan's articles. Among them, there are mixed reviews, but the praise is certainly at the top of the list.

Even if I feel that Shen Wuyan's article needs to be considered. However, it is highly respected for its people, whether it is the war in the southeast, and later in the capital, and even to Liaodong, many of the apocryphal stories are also widely spread.

Shen Wuyan's name is probably extremely bright among the literati, this big figure in the literary world, sat down with the first emperor and drank the same pot of fish soup. Hanyan Mansion became famous overnight, which is enough to be respected by the literati.

It's just that the fraud in recent days has ruined Shen Wuyan's brightness among the literati. It is really a huge stain that the sage, who has always been gentle and gentle, but who is quite tactful, benevolent, righteous, courteous, wise, and trustworthy, has done such a despicable thing as fraud.

So this stain gradually spread. From fraud to all kinds, in short, the image of a perfect person, in an instant, is like a decay, and he has become a person despised by the literati.

Of course, there are also many people who support Shen Wuyan, and ask Guozijian to give an explanation to confirm that Shen Wuyan did not cheat. They were even more convinced that Shen Wuyan had been wronged.

So much so that as soon as Wan Cong mentioned Shen Wuyan's name, it immediately caused a huge reaction, followed by a strong dispute, even Wan Cong was quite embarrassed, so he had to wait for this commotion to end.

After a while, he gradually regained his quietness, and Wan Cong continued: "But Mr. Shen has been in some trouble lately. In the capital, it was rumored that Mr. Shen was cheating in Guozijian."

"Speaking is evidence-oriented, Yang shows whether he has evidence to confirm it"

"Yang Xian is a witness, why do you need evidence, he is evidence"

"Shen Wuyan, if he feels that he has been wronged, he can come here to clarify that it is said that Wan Gongzi also invited him this time, why don't you see him coming?"

"Hmph, I'm afraid I have escaped from the capital a long time ago."

"What kind of thing are you, you dare to say that Mr. Shen When Mr. Shen is in the capital, I'm afraid you won't be able to speak."

Before Wan Cong could finish speaking, a noisy dispute rang out again. Wan Cong always had a smile on his face, and said loudly: "You don't need to argue whether Mr. Shen has cheated or not, you can naturally give you an explanation tonight."

"Why did you give Shen Wuyan and it hasn't appeared yet"

"What is the first talent in the capital, if you want me to see that the first talent in the capital is not owned by Wan Gongzi, how can Shen Wuyan be virtuous?"

This time, the voice came from several scholars with some status in the building, so as soon as the words came out, even Wan Cong was stunned, he groaned a little, and said busily: "Brother Zuo, Brother Zhao, why do you want to make fun of the younger brother Mr. Shen is the best in ancient and modern learning, and today I want to wash away his grievances."

"Then I want to thank Brother Wan"

Just as everyone was looking at Wan Cong, thinking about how Shen Wuyan hadn't appeared yet, they heard a peaceful voice not far away.

When his eyes swept over, he saw the man in civilian clothes, slowly getting out of the carriage, and then clasped his fists at the literati gathered outside the building, and said with a smile: "I am silent in Xiashen, I have seen you."

As soon as the words were spoken, there was silence in the field, and they all stared at Shen Wuyan intently, as if he was the only existence tonight.

As far as his eyes could see, he crossed a road that had long been separated, walked into Yueyun Restaurant with small steps, and then walked up to the high platform under the guidance of the scholar.

Compared with Wan Cong's domineering, Shen Wuyan was much calmer, dressed in ordinary Confucian clothes, if he didn't say his name, he would look like those literati outside the building.

Probably only the kind of temperament on his body is far better than that of everyone in the field today, in short, Shen Wuyan seems to be much more comfortable than Wan Cong.

He just smiled, put away his smile, and then hugged his fist towards Wan Cong, and said: "Brother Wan really spent money to make such a difference."

Wan Cong knew that if he continued to talk, he would definitely lose, so he simply laughed and said, "Mr. Shen still explains the fraud."

"That's what I said," then Shen Wuyan turned around and said loudly: "But it bothered you, the fraud originated from a month ago, and this matter still needs to be scrutinized."

Before Shen Wuyan could finish speaking, a scholar immediately interrupted him and said loudly: "I heard that Mr. Shen often goes to the prison of the Criminal Department, but he doesn't know what it is."

There was a lot of speculation before this matter, saying that there was a talented man in the prison of the Criminal Department, and most of Shen Wuyan's articles came from the predecessors of the humanities circle, but he became famous for stealing poems.

Shen Wuyan was stunned before responding: "Go see an old friend"

"Mr. Shen, do you dare to name that person," the man immediately asked.

It's just that before Shen Wuyan could speak, the man immediately sneered again, and said, "Mr. Shen is afraid that he won't dare to meet him, but Mr. Xu Wei and Xu Wenchang Mr. Shen still have to hide the matter of stealing Mr. Wenchang's poems and essays to become famous."

Shen Wuyan couldn't help but be stunned, but the scene was chaotic in an instant, everyone scrambled to refute, and more of them insulted Shen Wuyan and asked him to tell the truth quickly.

Shen Wuyan was silent for a long time, and when he looked for the scholar who asked him again, he couldn't find it, and then he turned his head and looked at Wan Cong deeply, before he said again: "Mr. Wenchang's article is not the same as mine, if someone with a heart can see the difference, this rumor is self-defeating."

As soon as these words came out, the scholars who were indignant before were silent for a while, and finally they were not allowed to continue.

Shen Wuyan continued: "You are all young and vigorous, so that some people take advantage of your scholarly temperament to explain today's affairs, but Shen has only one thing to say, the fraud is purely a rumor."

"Mr. Shen should pay attention to evidence when he speaks"

As soon as Shen Wuyan's voice fell, an old man immediately walked out of the crowd, he smiled at Shen Wuyan, and said lightly: "Yang Xian saw that Mr. Shen was cheating, and Mr. Shen said that he was not cheating, so who can prove that Mr. Shen did not cheat?"

Shen Wuyan lowered his head slightly, glanced at the familiar old man, smiled coldly, and said, "I really didn't expect this matter to trouble the Gao Ge Elder to come over in person."

"Elder Takao"

"He's the Elder of the High Court"

"This matter can even make him come"

“”

After the discussion, Gao Gong said: "Your Majesty asked me to investigate this matter, so naturally I have to find out, but there is another question I want to ask Mr. Shen, why are you in a hurry to send Shen Tianjun to the Guozi Prison, I heard that the crown prince is also in the Guozi prison recently, and Shen Tianjun and the prince are still very close."

Although the words did not explain, they already understood that the reason why Shen Wuyan cheated to let his six-year-old daughter enter the national prison was completely to get close to the prince.

So all this seems to be logical, and Shen Wuyan's wolf ambition is unforgivable.

Shen Wuyan was speechless for a while, he really didn't know how to continue. On the high platform, in the midst of all the attention, he was so silent, so lonely, and no one came to help him.
