Chen's house.

Chen Buzhi gulped down the food sent by Bichunyuan on the table, and Bai Min sat opposite him and read a book.

"Do you have to eat in my room?" Bai Min looked at Chen Zhizhi and sighed.

Bai Min has been living in the Chen Mansion on weekdays. There is a room dedicated to Bai Min here.

Although Chen Buzhi's friendship with Bai Min is a bit deviant, Chen Buzhi's father is very supportive.

Since the master has supported him, Chen doesn't know how to prepare a room for Bai Min, so the housekeepers can only do it.

You must know that Chen's mother died early, and in Chen's mansion, the only people who had the courage to disobey Chen's instructions were Chen's father and Bai Ming.

"Eat in my room, and you won't come. What's the point of eating alone and talking to no one. Chen Buzhi said it very justifiably.

"It's not good to eat at night, let alone in the house."

"If you don't eat, you'll be very hungry, if you cultivate, you'll understand, stargazing is very tiring." Chen Buyi said while picking up the rice in his mouth.

"Chen didn't know that he started cultivating three years ago, and now he is in the stargazing realm, and looking at Dayue, he is also an extremely outstanding genius.

Bai Min shook his head, he knew that if he continued to talk about it, Chen didn't know that he would lead the topic to persuade himself to cultivate, so he stopped talking and continued to read.

"I have a literary meeting tomorrow afternoon that I can't push, Lao Bai, will you accompany me?" Chen didn't know that because of the food in his mouth, his voice was a little slurred.

"The Wenhui that can't be pushed off?" Bai Min was a little curious. The Chen family is the first family in Xijing, with the status of the Chen family in Xijing, how can there be a Wenhui that Chen doesn't know and can't shake.

He didn't suspect that Chen Buzhi was lying to him, because Chen Buzhi was very disgusted with going to those so-called literary meetings, Chen Buzhi felt that those literati were pretentious, and he hated that he had to follow them to pretend.

Chen Buzhi sighed and explained: "Han Zaifu's daughter Han Yuning came to Xijing, she will participate in the cultural meeting, I always have to give some face." ”

The official name of Zaifu is Shoufu, and Zaifu is just another name. Shoufu is the number one minister in the court, the actual head of the hundred officials, and the literary meeting held by Shoufu's daughter, Chen doesn't know that it is really difficult to shirk.

"You know, I can barely order the ink of the dance text, but how can I compare to those guys? Lao Bai, you must go and help me support the field. Chen pleaded.

"Yes, but I'm going back tomorrow morning to sweep my aunt's grave." Bai Min accepted Chen Buyi's invitation.

"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow." Chen Buyi nodded happily.

Bai Min had no parents since he was a child, and only one aunt raised him. The aunt relied on weaving to raise Bai Min, and the two of them lived a very hard life on weekdays.

When Bai Min was twelve years old, his aunt died of illness, leaving only a crescent moon jade pendant for Bai Min. Since then, Bai Min has lived alone, making a living by writing to people.

Tomorrow is neither the Qingqing Festival nor the death day of the aunt, but Bai Min will go to sweep the aunt's grave every two months.

Auntie is a person who loves cleanliness, and Bai Min is worried that if the tombstone is not cleaned for too long, Auntie's spirit in the sky will be uncomfortable.

After eating the food in Bichun Garden, Chen Buzhi walked outside the house, sat on the futon and began to gaze at the stars.

Bai Min came out with him, although he did not practice, he had read a lot of books related to cultivation, and he knew more about cultivation than ordinary monks. Many of Chen Ming's cultivation doubts were often solved by Bai Ming.

"Lao Bai, what should I do if I feel that the starlight is getting less and less into my body."

"The starlight gathers overhead, first scatters the starlight throughout the body, and then absorbs it."

"Lao Bai, my head is a little sore."

"You introduced the moonshine into your body, a little bit out of the way, concentrate, don't absorb the moonshine."

"Lao Bai, I'm hungry."

"Sleep."

……

The morning of the second day.

Cemetery.

Bai Min stood in front of her aunt's grave, carefully wiped the tombstone with a handkerchief, and then pulled out the weeds from the grave one by one. Some weed rhizomes are intricate and extremely difficult to pull out, so Bai Min smooths the rhizomes of the weeds little by little, and then slowly pulls them out.

Chen Buzhi watched from the sidelines.

He knew very well that Bai Min did not need help in this matter.

After Bai Min's aunt died, Chen didn't know how to let Bai Min move to Chen's mansion, firstly, because he was afraid that he would be too lonely alone, and secondly, he was also worried that he often looked at things and thought about people, and was overly sad, which affected his body.

The aunt took care of Bai Min to grow up, and the two depended on each other for their lives, like mother and son, and Bai Min often went to sweep the tomb to remember his aunt.

After cleaning up the weeds, Bai Min sat in front of his aunt's grave and was silent for a long time, and Chen Buzhi had been with him like this.

……

Outside the Chen Mansion.

"Didn't you say it was a banquet held by Zaifu's daughter?" Bai Min looked at the two huge words "Chen Mansion" above his head, and began to wonder if Chen didn't know if he was lying to himself.

"That's right, it was organized by Han Yuning." Chen Buzhi's answer was very sincere.

"Then why did we come to your house?"

Chen didn't know how to speak, and looked at Bai Min like dementia.

"What's wrong?" Bai Min was a little uncomfortable to look at.

"Guess where is the best mansion in Xijing? Since it's a cultural meeting, it can't be held in a restaurant, right? Chen Buzhi asked with a smile and walked straight into the mansion. Bai Min asked stupid questions, which was an extremely happy thing in his eyes.

"Reasonable." Bai Min's face was a little red when he heard this, and he followed Chen Buzhi in.

Chen's mansion is huge, and the banquet hall where the banquet is located is also a little unfamiliar to Bai Min.

Walking into the banquet hall, facing the main seat.

On either side of the main seat, there are six small tables, a total of thirteen seats.

"Come, Lao Bai, I'll sit on the left, and you will be on the right." Chen Buyi walked to the middle of the banquet hall and pointed to the two seats closest to the main seat.

"No, I'll sit at the end." As he spoke, Bai Min walked to the sixth seat on the right.

After all, he is a civilian, and sitting in such a high seat may provoke slander.

Bai Min didn't care about himself, but he had to think about Chen Ming.

Chen didn't know what Bai Min meant, and he didn't force it.

After settling Bai Min, Chen didn't know how to pick up the guests at the door.

Not to mention anything else, a single daughter of Shoufu is worthy of him, the young master of the Chen family, going out to greet him.

Bai Min sat in his place and watched the young ladies of the young man take their seats under the guidance of the domestic servants.

The visitors are all freshly dressed and angry, with neon clothes and feathers, in contrast, Bai Min's white clothes look simple and a little sour.

A visitor in a gray-and-white brocade robe even rolled his eyes disdainfully when he saw Bai Min's dress and position, thinking that Bai Min was a son of a certain down-and-out clan, and that the purpose of the communication would be to appease them.

"Zhao saw that Brother Tai was a little faceless, and dared to ask Brother Tai's surname?" On Bai Min's left, a young man in purple stepped forward to talk. The young man has a little fat figure, eager eyes, and a smile on his face, as if he has been friends with Bai Min for many years.

The Wenhui is a place for scholars to chant poems and make acquaintances, and it is normal for young people in purple to do it.

"White mercy."

"Brother Bai! In the lower Zhao Huiyan, the Tong'an County Order is a strict family. The purple-clothed young man named Zhao Huiyan introduced himself.

Tong'an, as the attached Guo County of Xijing, the second largest city in Dayue, has a six-grade county order, but compared with the elders of other people in Wenyan, the county order of Tong'an is a little insufficient, so Zhao Huiyan can only be at the bottom.

"Dare to ask Ling Zun?" Zhao Huiyan immediately began to inquire about Bai Min's life experience.

"I don't know, probably long dead." Bai Min knew that he wanted to find out his details, and replied truthfully.

"Huh?" Zhao Huiyan's eager expression suddenly froze, and he immediately recovered, and said in a regretful tone: "Ling Zun's matter is regrettable." ”

"That Lingtang?" Zhao Huiyan asked.

"I don't know, maybe I'm already dead."

Zhao Huiyan: ???

"Brother Bai, which elder in your family is teaching?" Zhao Huiyan still didn't give up.

"Only my aunt raised me."

"Brother ...... White"

Before Zhao Huiyan could finish asking, Bai Min added: "I am the people." ”

Zhao Huiyan: !!

Bai Min thought that Zhao Huiyan would stop talking, but unexpectedly, Zhao Huiyan quickly adjusted his mood and poured Bai Min a glass of wine, and the eagerness in his words was not diminished.

"The distinction between the scholars and the people is nothing more than a false name, how can it be done really." Zhao Huiyan waved his hand, it seemed that there was really no difference between the people in his eyes, "I look at Brother Bai, you are heroic and extraordinary, and you will succeed in the future." ”

Bai Min raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

In addition to Chen Buyi, it was the first time he had seen a young scholar who did not discriminate against the people, even if it might only be superficial.

He couldn't help but have a much better impression of the fat man in purple in front of him.

While the two were talking, a sharp announcement came from the servant outside the house.

"Miss Han has arrived."

Everyone looked at the door and saw a handsome young man leading a beautiful woman in.

The young man has sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and he is handsome and extraordinary. The girl combs the most popular bun nowadays, jade, ice skin, beautiful and edible, and a little tear mole on her right eye is even more beautiful.

The people who came were Chen Buzhi and Han Yuning.

The eyes of the audience converged on the two of them, the man looked at Han Yuning, and the woman stared at Chen Zhizhi, with obsession in their eyes.

There is such a face in the world.

Although Bai Min is not obsessed, he is indeed attracted by the appearance of this daughter of the first assistant, and he can't help but look at him a few more times.

In the eyes of everyone, the two sat down separately, Han Yuning sat in the main seat, and Chen Zhizhi was on his left.

After taking a seat, Han Yuning stood up and raised her glass, and said in a cold voice: "Thank you for coming to the meeting, Yuning is grateful." ”

With that, he covered his face with his sleeve and took a sip of wine.

Everyone also raised their glasses to show respect.

After this set of processes is completed, the cultural meeting can be regarded as officially begins.
