Chapter 35 JAC Poetry Society

Eating this dinner amidst a burst of laughter.

Chen Xiuping really didn't want to be a scholar when he was eating. He wolfed down a bit. After all, he hadn't eaten any food since lunch. He had caught and killed chickens just now, so he had a lot of energy to digest.

After dinner, the prince took Chen Xiuping to play the elephant show, and Chen Xiuping had no choice but to accompany him. After all, this was Jiangning, no, one of the best scholars in the New Song Dynasty.

As the rain fell, Wang Gong asked about the situation in the academy. Wang Dao regarded Chen Xiuping as his descendant. After all, there were no literati in Jianghuai that he respected. The two poems written by Chen Xiuping made him think that this son was a talented person.

.

Chen Xiuping slowly started chatting about some of the things he had done at the Su Academy. After telling the story, he started teaching the Analects to the children, and was laughed at and scolded by the prince.

In the prince's view, Chen Xiuping is really a rookie teaching here. He has just finished telling the story, and the children's attention is all on the story. I am afraid that half of their learning energy will be diverted. They should finish teaching the Analects first and then tell the story.

That's fine. Give me a sweet treat first, and then you'll get twice the result with half the effort.

Chen Xiuping was right when he thought about it. His thoughts in his previous life had led him into a misunderstanding, and the prince was obviously aware of his misunderstanding.

Then Wang Dao asked about the song "The Turtle Lives Longevity". After listening to it, Wang Dao pondered for a while, silently playing the elephant show, and then sighed, why Chen Xiuping was not born ten years earlier? If he had known this song ten years ago,

Shi, now I don’t want to stay in this little Jianghuai to take care of my old age.

While chatting, the prince talked about the Jianghuai Poetry Fair not long after. This poetry fair was organized by Wang Dao and several Jiangning scholars in conjunction with several chambers of commerce, in order to enhance the exchanges between scholars from all over Jiangning Prefecture. After all, it is not possible to do things behind closed doors.

As a long-term solution, it would be a good thing for scholars from all over the world to communicate together.

This poetry society is the largest poetry society in Jiangning Prefecture. Several chambers of commerce have worked hard to contribute money and efforts, because the status of business was still a bit low in ancient times. When you have money, you want to rely on literati. This is why the Su family holds the Su Family Academy.

idea, but such a thing cannot be accomplished overnight. Even though it has been held for ten years, not much has changed. Several families are now also called business families.

However, the poetry fair is still becoming more and more prosperous year by year, and the number of participants has changed from the previously limited scholars to talented oirans. Talented women in the family can also participate, and the poetry fair organized by the business family is naturally

Inseparable from the relationship with merchants, I have been participating in poetry gatherings in recent years. Descendants of merchant families like Suning'er also participated in discussing business with merchants from all over Jiangning.

But Chen Xiuping felt another meaning from his words. Wang Dao wanted him to attend this poetry meeting.

"Forget it, the little ink in my belly is probably not as good as the talents from a few academies in Jianghuai, let alone in such a large area as Jiangning Prefecture."

"Talented people, haha, they are all a bunch of losers. After taking exams for so many years, Xue Hua was born. It was those old people who were not ashamed to see that Jianghuai had not produced a talented person for so long, so they jointly taught him."

"Even if there is only one Xue Hua, I can't afford to offend him. Last time at Wangjiang Tower, Xue Hua looked at me from behind, as if he wanted to eat me."

Chen Xiuping could see clearly that he had repeatedly hit Xue Hua in the face. If Xue Hua was forced to jump over the wall in a hurry, he would definitely not be able to bear the consequences.
