"We are gathered here this time, firstly, to wash the dust for Brother Xianji's release from prison; The second is to celebrate Changgu Brother Jinshi High School. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoIn this way, the seven of us are all from Jinshi and have similar interests. If a poetry club is formed, it will complement each other and be a good story for the ages. ”

"Brother Zhongmo's words are wrong, Brother Changgu Jinshi High School is worth celebrating, as for washing the dust in the wind, it is really unnecessary."

"I didn't expect that the first emperor was such a virtuous king, and he would also let Brother Xianji go to prison and be dusted because of his efforts to shield the emperor's relatives."

"No one is perfect, and even wise men have times when they do wrong things. Now that the first emperor has passed away and Brother Xianji has returned safely, you don't have to talk about it again. ”

"What Brother Dehan said is very true. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, it is the time for me to show my ambitions, how can I dwell on the past? ”

Before he went up, he heard several shouts from the third floor, and his words were directed at Zheng De's cheap father. Li Dongyang frowned slightly when he heard this, glanced at the emperor beside him, and saw that Zheng De's face was not different, so he relieved himself. However, he still persuaded him, "Don't be angry, these seven people are all outspoken, and they have no scruples when they speak, and I ask the emperor to forgive one or two." ”

"It's okay, let's go up." Zheng De smiled and urged indifferently.

Li Dongyang relieved himself, nodded, and walked upstairs first.

"The teacher is here," a scholar who was facing the door noticed Li Dongyang and Zheng De walking up. Only then did everyone react and salute one after another, "Pavilion Elder (Teacher)"

"Although the teacher is a leader in the literary world, he is also a cabinet elder and an important minister of the court. It was really flattering to be invited by the students to participate in the association of seven of us. The first person bowed his hand, it was Li Mengyang in the household department, and there was only one word difference between his name and Li Dongyang's name.

Li Mengyang was a member of the Hongzhi Sixth Year Examination, and Li Dongyang was the main examiner of the examination that year. According to the habits of the ancients, the status of this teacher and student is determined. Of course, there are also Wang Jiusi and Bian Gong, although they are Bingchen Kejinshi in the ninth year of Hongzhi, but although the chief examiner of the examination that year is not him, the official of the palace examination is Li Dongyang, so he is also his student.

"This time, we will meet friends with texts, if we call Ge Lao again, won't we be divided. You can call me sir. Li Dongyang said with a smile, pointed to Zheng Dedao, "This is the distant nephew of the old man, I heard that there are all kinds of talented people together, and I want to see it." The old man took the liberty to bring him, and I hope you don't want to be surprised. ”

"The teacher smiled, how dare I call myself a genius in front of the teacher, it's just a late learner." Li Mengyang bowed. However, the smile on his face couldn't be hidden, and he was obviously quite happy with Li Dongyang's praise. looked at Zheng De again, "Since this distant cousin of his mentor is at the age of study, it is a good thing to see it, so why should he be offended?" ”

"I don't know the name of the virtuous brother?"

Li Dongyang was a little worried that the emperor didn't know how to deal with it, and he showed his feet. saw Zheng De bow his hand, "Under Zheng De, the word is Jun, and I have seen all my brothers." ”

For you? Everyone's faces changed when they heard this. This word is too bold and offensive to the king. I don't know who took it for this person, aren't you afraid of causing death?

Everyone looked at Li Dongyang, who smiled helplessly and shook his head. The emperor himself chose such a word for himself, and who dared to say a word "no".

Kang Hai, one of the seven scholars, looked moved, and suddenly arched his hand and said, "It turned out to be Junxian's brother." In Xia Kanghai, the word Dehan, to be able to meet Brother Weijun, Kang is fortunate to have three lives. ”

The other six of the seven scholars all looked at him with surprised expressions. You must know that if you call others "king", if you are known by someone with a heart and report it to the emperor. I'm afraid that it is not impossible to be accused of treason, and when the time comes, it will be too late to regret it. So this is also the reason why the six of them were silent and did not dare to call Zheng De "for the king". Unexpectedly, Kang Hai was the first to stand up, isn't he afraid of killing his head?

Is this Kang Hai? looks like he is in his early thirties, with a graceful bearing, and he really deserves to be the dragon and phoenix among people. Zheng De nodded and arched his hand, "It turned out to be Brother Kang, fortunately, fortunately." ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little cold, I also felt that it was because of my arrival? He is not a person who dislikes people, and he is even more interested in things like poetry and lyrics, but more wants to meet these people. Now that the purpose has been achieved, it is not lingering. However, he also had to do a full set of plays, and he bowed to Li Dongyang at the moment, "Uncle, the little nephew remembered that there was still something to do, and he wanted to leave first." ”

Li Dongyang was embarrassed and didn't know what to say, seeing the emperor so human, he looked at him with a shocked face, is this still the prince who grew up in the deep palace?

However, it is best for the emperor to want to leave, but he is thinking about whether to follow?

When he was having trouble making a choice, Zheng De made a choice for him, "Uncle, please stay, the little nephew will go home when he is done, and he won't let you worry." ”

The emperor is really a smart person, but Li Dongyang is impressed by him. He nodded, "Then you can go back as soon as you go, don't stay outside." ”

"Nephew knows." Zheng De bowed to the seven scholars again, "I am here to say goodbye to all my brothers, if there is a fate, he will naturally meet one day." ”

"Go well for Brother Junxian, and I won't keep you for my brother." Among the seven scholars, only Kang Hai returned the salute, making the seven people look at him again with a puzzled expression.

Zheng De glanced back at him and said with a smile, "Brother Dehan, please stay." And he strode away.

On the second floor, Liu Jin saw Zheng De coming down, and hurriedly greeted him, and said in surprise, "Your Majesty, why did you come down so quickly, Elder Li Ge?" ”

"Call the young master." Zheng De was obviously in a good mood, and he didn't bother with Liu Jin, threw down the sentence "go back to the palace", and left first.

Liu Jin and Mu Bin looked at each other with puzzled expressions, and they really didn't know why the emperor became so happy. However, he could only suppress the doubts in his heart and leave with Zheng De.

Seeing Zheng De leaving, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as if they had sent away a big trouble. Li Mengyang looked at his mentor and said, "Since this person is a distant nephew of his mentor, how dare he take the name of offending the king like this, and he is not afraid of getting into trouble and implicating the teacher?" ”

Li Dongyang could only chuckle and shake his head when he heard this, he really didn't know where to start.

"Elder Ge, can this person be the saint today?" Kang Hai stood up, arched his hand towards the palace, and boldly said a guess.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and even broke out in a cold sweat. looked at him with a look of surprise, and finally all eyes converged on Li Dongyang, and only he knew the current emperor. Of course, there is Xu Zhenqing, but unfortunately everyone seems to have forgotten him.

But then again, this one has also met the emperor before, so why can't he recognize him in person? At that time, Xu Zhenqing was hiding in the corner of the Qionglin banquet and kept drinking stuffy wine, and he only glanced at the emperor from a distance, so he naturally didn't have much of an impression.

Although the others are from Jinshi, it is a pity that the high-ranking officials are only in the middle of the five ranks, and they can hardly even see the face of the emperor, let alone the prince of the East Palace. At most, I glanced at it from a distance, but I don't know how long it took, and it's normal not to know each other now.

Seeing that Kang Hai had broken Zheng De's identity, Li Dongyang was not hiding it, but looked at him in surprise, "Dehan is right, this person is indeed the son of the great tomorrow, and he is a saint today." ”

Everyone gasped when they heard this, and even more people such as Li Mengyang and others were remorseful. If the emperor stays here and sees his own talents, won't he have a smooth career and rise to the top in the future.

Li Dongyang saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, and when he saw Kang Hai standing aside with a flat face, he bowed slightly approvingly, "Dehan, although you are a cultivator of the Hanlin Academy, you usually have no intersection with the prince of the East Palace, how did you recognize the emperor?" ”

Kang Haidao, "'Zhengde' is homophonic to 'Zhengde', but it happens to be the name of the era drawn up by the courtiers to the emperor. In addition, the word 'for the king', even the most daring people dare not use it to offend the king, and the name of complicity and rebellion can only be used by the saints today. Combined with the fact that the person who came was only a teenager, he could let the elder bring him to the meeting, and how could he be compared to a distant cousin and nephew, only the current saint is also. ”

After listening to Kang Hai's analysis, everyone suddenly realized. There is also a little regret that such a smooth opportunity let him slip out of his hands in vain.

"Then why don't you keep the emperor? You must know that this is the best time for you to show your talents in front of His Majesty, how can you tolerate him being lost in vain? Li Dongyang looked at Kang Hai, as if he wanted to see something in his eyes.

Kang Hai met his gaze indifferently, "Xiaguan is already a cultivator of the Hanlin Academy, and compared with many fellow scholars, he has already taken the lead, so why do you need to do it many times?" Besides, it is quite embarrassing to see the emperor standing here, if he is forced to stay, wouldn't he offend the saint? ”

Li Dongyang nodded when he heard this, and couldn't help but glance at Kang Hai.

"In this way, wouldn't the emperor listen to the words that we offended the emperor just now?" The speaker was He Jingming, a member of the Zhongshu Society, who was also one of the initiators of this association.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, Li Mengyang's face changed, but he became calm and fearless in an instant, he was a person who was not afraid of heaven and earth, and he didn't care and said, "The first emperor has a loss, and I, as a courtier, should naturally point it out." If the emperor is to blame for this, wouldn't it be undoubted that he will be in harmony with the faint king. ”

Looking at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, only Li Mengyang dared to directly scold the emperor in front of everyone.

Li Dongyang shook his head helplessly when he heard this, he is a good student, but he is too upright. This also led to him offending too many people, so he was repeatedly attacked and imprisoned, but he still did not change his temperament. Now that he is a pavilion elder, he can bless one or two, if he is a master one day. I'm afraid that sooner or later I will have to fall on my heels in officialdom.

"The emperor has a good heart, although he listened to what you said, he did not have the slightest sense of blame."

Listening to Li Dongyang's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"The old man still has something to deal with today, so let's take a step first, and I hope you don't blame you." Li Dongyang looked at everyone. Thinking that the emperor ran out of the palace today, this matter must be uncontrollable. I don't know how much of a storm it will set off in the DPRK and China, and I have to rush back to deal with it.

Li Mengyang arched his hand and said, "If the teacher has something, how dare the student stop it, and the student will send him off." The rest of the crowd chimed in.

"Farewell" Li Dongyang bowed his hand and walked downstairs quickly.

Watching Li Dongyang leave, Li Mengyang looked at everyone and said, "Although the emperor and the elder have left, we must not end the matter of the association." It must be known that in today's literary world, the prevalence of poetry and literature in the style of Taiwan Pavilion is a habit of "slowing down and being redundant, and being the same", and the people who read it are really ......"

Although the association continued under the auspices of Li Mengyang, it was a pity that everyone's interest was not very high. Obviously, it was Zheng De's arrival that caused everyone to suffer from gains and losses, and in the end, it ended hastily.
