Just as people in later generations would sing after dinner, the monarchs of the Song Dynasty would not go home to sleep after drinking this wine. If you go home and sleep, what kind of nightlife is it?

It's just that the emperor wants to go to Wang Hao's house to send warmth after the banquet, and it is not appropriate for others to follow him, is the emperor sending warmth or you sending warmth? Are you competing with the emperor to buy people's hearts? That is tantamount to not wanting to mix.

So after Liang Shicheng left, the courtiers present were thinking about where to go to play at night, but Zhao Ji brought the topic to the Yuanxi poetry meeting that will start tomorrow, "I see that all Aiqing has no one to chant poetry, but are they all ready to make poems tomorrow?"

Cai Jing first pandered: "The old minister Jiang Lang is exhausted, and the Chinese ink in his belly has dried up, not only will he not be able to compete for the glory tomorrow, but he will not be able to do anything tonight, just wait for tomorrow the poetry will learn from you sages." ”

Cai Jing was so modest, who else would dare to brag? Zhou Bangyan, the only one who dared to argue with Cai Jing and the leader of the world's euphemistic words, was not present, so the officials present were humble, saying that their literary thoughts were exhausted and there were no impromptu sentences.

Although no one wrote poems and lyrics, the topic turned to tomorrow's poetry meeting.

Tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, that is, the Yuan Xi Lantern Festival and the Poetry Festival are the activities that must be carried out every year since Zhao Ji succeeded to the throne, and it is also an excellent opportunity for literati to show their faces.

People have speculated about who will win the first place this year in tomorrow's poetry meeting, some say it is Zhou Bangyan, and some say that it may be Li Qingzhao, and they each put the facts and reason, and they are very happy.

Gao Yu wanted to ask about Bai Sheng at this banquet, but as soon as he came back, he heard from his subordinates that Bai Sheng was appointed by the emperor as a martial champion, so he couldn't figure it out.

He couldn't figure it out not because he looked down on Bai Sheng's martial arts, but because he was a hostage exchanged with Bai Sheng face-to-face in Hangzhou, and he saw Bai Sheng there.

The Xingzhu faction who escorted Bai Sheng did not dare to approach Hangzhou City, so they only sent someone to deliver a letter to the Demon Sect, and then Fang La ordered someone to escort him out, and walked all the way to Changxing, north of Hangzhou, before exchanging with Bai Sheng face to face.

He saw with his own eyes that after receiving Bai Sheng, the people who escorted him did not listen to Bai Sheng's explanation, but immediately escorted Bai Sheng to the direction of Hangzhou. It was definitely an escort, not an escort, and he could still see the difference between the two.

However, he had just returned less than a day ago, how could Bai Sheng be able to become the top student in the martial arts of yesterday and today? Could it be that Bai Sheng actually knew the legendary Divine Technique? The chariots and horses of the Star Sect were not slow!

But at the moment, no one at the banquet was interested in the martial arts that had just ended, especially since the emperor was also predicting the grand occasion of tomorrow's poetry meeting with Cai Jing, so how could he interject and divert the topic? He would never do such a scene-wrenching thing.

Gao Yu pondered Bai Sheng here, but Bai Sheng walked through the streets and alleys of Bianliang.

Bai Sheng is looking for Fang Jinzhi. Like a husband who worries about his wife, he searches all over the city, and his worries are burning.

Of course, what he was worried about was not Fang Jinzhi's safety, he just wanted to understand Dai Zong's Divine Armor Horse as soon as possible.

Cai Jingjing instructed him to be ready to go to Tong Guan's tent at any time, which meant that the army of the expedition to the west could set off at any time.

Although he knew that he would not swear to go on the expedition today and tomorrow, because the emperor was going to hold the Lantern Festival and the Poetry Meeting, and the army would dilute the atmosphere of these two feasts at this time, Tong Guan would definitely not do this, which was tantamount to adding blockage to Zhao Ji.

When passing by the gate of Wang Hao's mansion, a team of eunuchs carrying lanterns hurriedly arrived, escorting a sedan chair.

When these eunuchs saw Bai Sheng riding a jade lion from a distance, some people shouted at a sharp voice: "Who dares to go on such a rampage on the street?

Bai Sheng was very annoyed when he heard this, Zhao Ji bullied me, you eunuchs dare to bully me? He knew that the awesome eunuchs must be accompanying Zhao Ji in Fanlou, so there would not be any big figures in the sedan chair surrounded by this group of eunuchs.

So he pushed back: "This big road belongs to your family?

"What's going on? Stop the sedan car and lift the curtains. The person in the sedan chair spoke, and the eunuch who carried the sedan chair immediately stopped the sedan chair and lifted the sedan curtain.

Bai Sheng looked at it, I'll wipe it, isn't this Lao Liang? This old guy is not easy to mess with, if he provokes him, he will run to Zhao Ji's ear and come up with a collection of Lao Liang's stories, if he falls out with Zhao Ji in advance, it will not be good.

There's still a lot of work left unplanned.

So he arched his hand on the horse and said, "I don't know if it's Lord Liang......

Before he finished speaking, Lao Liang laughed first and greeted politely, "Isn't this the champion? Why didn't you stay busy at home for the festival and come to the door of Wang Shaobao's house?"

Bai Sheng didn't expect Lao Liang to be so polite, but he was stunned.

It stands to reason that even if he wins this martial champion in vain, it is not enough for Liang Shicheng to be polite to him, and this status is far behind.

He didn't know that Liang Shicheng had already treated him as a dead man. It is great for a person to die, and it is appropriate to be polite and polite in advance, lest he turn into a ghost in the future and come to him to ask for his life.

In other words, the strategy of letting Bai Sheng be the champion is not Liang Shicheng's dedication to Zhao Ji?

Seeing that Bai Sheng didn't answer, Liang Shicheng was not annoyed, and still smiled: "Little ones, make way for Zhuangyuanlang!"

Bai Sheng was even more confused, no matter how he thought about it, Liang Shicheng could make way for me?

He didn't dare to wait for Liang Shicheng's team to get out of the way, so he hurriedly dismounted and stepped aside, "It's better for Lord Liang to go first." ”

Liang Shicheng said with a smile: "Our family respects the soldiers of the bloody border pass the most, and it is also appropriate to make way for Zhuangyuanlang, but since you have already let it, no matter how polite our family is, it will be out of sight, so don't pass by!"

Liang Shicheng started in a sedan chair, and the team walked past Bai Sheng and hurriedly entered Wang Hao's gate.

Bai Sheng did not leave immediately, but looked at the backs of this group of people and felt strange, Liang Shicheng was not in Fan Lou to accompany Zhao Ji on this big night, what did he do when he came to Wang Hao's house?

As soon as his mind moved, he rode around to a secluded corner of the east courtyard wall, and without dismounting, he jumped up directly from the horse's back and climbed over the wall.

At this time, his light skills were no longer the clumsiness of the original, jumping over the ridge and flying the eaves and walking on the wall was a piece of cake, and it didn't take long to enter the depths of the courtyard.

I saw a group of people coming out of Wang Hao's house carrying lanterns and walking in the direction of the gate, and in the midst of the lights, there were several jeweled women, who thought to be Wang Hao's wives and concubines.

Wang Hao's family and Liang Shicheng's team met in the courtyard, and the two sides met each other, only to hear Liang Shicheng say: "A few brothers and sisters, our family has come to congratulate you." ”

The first older woman replied: "He Xizhi, our father-in-law is still suffering in Hangzhou, and this Gao Taiwei will not care about our father-in-law when he returns......

Liang Shicheng said: "You have wronged Captain Gao, the first thing Captain Gao did tonight in Fanlou is to beg the official's house to save Wang Shaobao!"

Several women were immediately delighted: "Is this true?"

Liang Shicheng said: "Our family is entrusted by the official family, how dare we joke? It's just that the official family also said that they want to discuss the rescue of Shaobao with the fifth lady alone, you know." ”

Several women still didn't understand what this meant, they had long wanted to be close to the emperor, and they immediately expressed their understanding, but they were a little envious and jealous of the fifth lady.

Liang Shicheng said again: "The warm pavilion in your back garden is very good, so arrange it there." ”
