"Everyone participating in the literary meeting today is all famous people. Not only the great Confucians, but also the masters of Taoism and Samanas will also be present. Some of the most learned and famous people in this city are also invited..."

On the carriage, Zhao Chang and Li Huai sat opposite each other and talked about the situation.

"I have also heard in the past that the Chang'an Literary Society is held once a year, but it is actually a grand forum." Li Huai nodded lightly, "There are also many rumors that the Chang'an Literary Society was originally modeled after Xingtan.

The discussion of Tao was initiated by some great Confucian scholars in Guanzhong and gained support from the palace before it took shape."

"It is true that we follow the teachings of Xingtan, but in recent years it has surpassed those in the east. Even the great scholars from Qilu will sometimes come here to participate," Zhao Chang said with a smile, "But in the final analysis, this

In the Literary Society, the great Confucians are just judges. When they preach knowledge, they must be listened to, and these listeners are me."

Li Huai asked: "You and Brother Zhang have participated several times before. I wonder how many people will gather there?"

"I'm afraid there will be a lot, but it won't be too much," Zhao Chang pointed to the direction of the carriage, "The Hun Garden where the literary conference will be held this time is originally the garden of Zhong Jiyou in the literary world in Chang'an. Although it is not small, it is smaller than the garden in Chang'an.

When it comes to your own yard, it's a little bit worse. If there are more than a hundred people, it's almost the limit."

Li Huai immediately calculated: "There are more than one hundred people, among whom there must be twenty or thirty great Confucians, and there may be more than a hundred people left, who can participate and get this opportunity to listen to the lectures."

"That's about it." Zhao Chang nodded, then smiled, "So you don't have to worry about it all the time. It's not a big deal if I invite you."

Li Huai shook his head and said: "At a glance, the number of people is quite large. It's just that this kind of opportunity not only allows you to listen and learn, but also makes friends with people from all walks of life. The most important thing is that if you can make friends with others here, you can be

Who among the invited people is not an outstanding person? Being able to come here is a blessing. Besides, not to mention how many outstanding people there are in Chang'an, how many people in this world do not want to come? Now that I think about it, I had expressed my explicit or implicit hope before.

To be invited by you and Brother Zhang is indeed a bit too much."

"If someone else is asking for help, of course it is forcing someone to do something difficult, but you, Li Xuanqing, are not like that," Zhao Chang said, pointing to the small box in Li Huai's hand, "I have noticed it. You have been using this thing since you got on the carriage.

Keeping it next to you should be your trump card this time, and I can guess its content."

"That's right." Li Huai nodded, "I have been slandered by people for so many days for no reason, but everyone who is familiar with me has advised me on this, and there are even many people who have even told me in person.

I am good-looking, but it feels really uncomfortable, but now is the time to properly rectify my name!"

"That's it," Zhao Chang laughed, "If it's someone else, no matter how close they are to me, if they don't have any ability, they can't be pushed away after all. When I pushed him out, I found that the person was actually an embroidered pillow with nothing inside.

With real ability and a big temper, wouldn’t it be me and Zhang Kun who are unlucky?”

Li Huai nodded subconsciously, but thinking in his heart, apart from plug-ins, he seems to have some merits, not counting embroidered pillows, right? At least, the words in this manuscript are written by me, and I have put them together and polished them.

I came here by myself...

"...Xuan Qing, you are different. I just listened to your discussion in Yuyu Tower and I know what you are capable of. Even if there is any flaw, your method of suppressing Li Yi and others is enough to deal with it," Zhao Chang

He continued talking, and then changed the subject, "To be honest, with your temperament, Zhang Kun and I would not dare to recommend you casually, for fear that you would cause trouble and ruin our reputation, but now it doesn't matter, with you

As long as you show your ability and you are arrogant, others will only call you unruly, not a dandy."

Li Huai was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but sigh: "It's so true."

"Things in this world are based on one's own self, the royal family, the noble family, they can rely on their status to prosper for a while, but there will always be an end, and when history is written, they will still be despised by future generations!"

Having said this, Zhao Chang paused for a moment, and then said, "I've already said it for this reason, so please stop pressing it and bring it over for me to take a look at."

Li Huai gave a long laugh, then opened the small box in his hand and handed the manuscript over.

Zhao Chang took it and took a few glances at it. At first, he didn't seem to be interested, but after a few glances, he was deeply attracted. His eyes seemed to be attached to it and he couldn't move away at all.

Li Huai did not urge him, but observed his friend's expression from the side. Seeing that the other person looked completely devoted, he was still thinking about how well he should behave when he arrived at the scene this time.

?

Should you go up and find Zheng Xingye directly and get a head start, or should you keep a low profile and hide in a corner, and then go up and slap Zheng Xingye directly in the face when he is being admired and surrounded by everyone?

Also, since there are so many powerful people, how should you behave in front of them? Should you follow the past personality and take the route of a domineering genius, or should you change your reputation and personality and be modest and prudent?

The handsome young master?

What a headache.

For a while, Li Huai fell into difficulty in choosing.

——————

In contrast, Zheng Xingye has no such worries.

He has arrived at the venue of this literary conference, and with him is a handsome, elegant, and unusually dressed wealthy man, the youngest son of Duke Xun, Xun Miao.

After getting off the carriage of the Xun family, Zheng Xingye glanced at the crowd inside and outside the vermilion gate, turned to the handsome young man and said, "Brother Xun, thank you very much. If I had come by myself, I don't know how long I would have to walk."

"Xingye, why are you so polite to me?" Xun Miao waved his hand, "Who in Chang'an today doesn't know your name Zheng Xingye? Those who want to invite you to accompany you can line up from here all the way outside the city. I

But he took advantage."

When Zheng Xingye listened, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, but he still said: "That's ridiculous, that's ridiculous. I have no reputation because of the promotion of Master Meng and Brother Xun."

"I am not praising you, but describing the facts. Your article has been spread throughout Chang'an. There is no discussion or literary meeting without mentioning it. Let me tell you the details first..." Xun Miao said slightly.

With a smile, "At least three of the speakers today will have papers with you, so you have to prepare in advance!"

Zheng Xingye couldn't help being startled, and then waved his hands and said: "How can I be so humble in front of everyone, how can I do it in front of everyone? This is really embarrassing me!"

Xun Miao said: "You are just saying this in front of me. In front of everyone, you have to show off as much as possible. Don't forget that you still have a powerful enemy! If you don't take action, then he will get it."

I won’t be polite when asking for help from others!”

Zheng Xingye was stunned for a moment, then calmed down, but still said uncertainly: "Li Huai? He... can he come too?"

"Why can't you come?" Xun Miao pouted, "Although that boy has a ruined reputation, he is now a genuine Marquis of Dingxiang! He is a distinguished noble! And he also has several friends. It is not surprising at all that he was invited in.

!You must not underestimate the enemy!"

"I remember!" Zheng Xingye nodded solemnly, "I don't hide it from Brother Xun. For this reason, I have been preparing for the past few days. No matter what questions and answers, I can answer them all!"

"This is the best!" Xun Miao nodded, "Let's go, I'll go in first. Believe me, you will be the protagonist of the Chang'an Cultural Conference today!"
