Zhu Youxiao still had great expectations for this literary meeting. The reason is very simple, that is, he has never participated in such a gathering and was very curious in his previous life, so he naturally had to look forward to this opportunity.

Soon they arrived at the place where the Cultural Festival was held, a garden.

The garden is green and a pebbled path leads to the depths of dense bamboos. Judging from the scale, the garden is not very small.

After getting off the carriage, Zhu Youxiao looked around and turned to ask Chen Hong: "This place looks quite large. Who organized the literary meeting this time?"

Such a cultural conference cannot be held just by anyone who wants to hold it, it requires money. The expenses in such a place must be quite large. Although someone may sponsor the cultural conference, food, drink, food, food, food, food, food, food, food, food, housing and other services will cost money.

This is what Zhu Youxiao asked about. Because whoever does this thing needs to provide local and expenses, not many people can do such things in the capital.

"He is Wei Dazhong. This person is Gao Panlong's disciple." Chen Hong said hurriedly.

When Zhu Youxiao heard that this person was Gao Panlong's disciple, he was stunned, then turned to look at Chen Hong, with some complexity in his eyes.

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't say anything, turned around and continued to ask: "Then it seems that there are many people invited this time. Do you know what they are going to talk about?"

"I went back to the emperor to rescue Gao Panlong and Sun Shenxing." Chen Hong said with a bow.

Rescue these two people?

After hearing Chen Hong's words, Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly.

Speaking of which, I really forgot Gao Panlong and Sun Shenxing. It is because the ministers in the court have been looking for various reasons to disturb me recently, and their sense of existence is really not high.

It seems that he is still locked in the imperial prison of the Jinyiwei.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao looked at Chen Hong again and said with a blank expression: "After going back, I will go to the thirty court battles by myself."

After saying this, Zhu Youxiao stepped inside.

Chen Hong, who was standing behind Zhu Youxiao, immediately smiled bitterly on his face, and then felt relieved.

In fact, this is Chen Hongzao's cleverness. The court did not mention Gao Panlong and Sun Shenxing.

The reason is very simple, that is, no one wants to make up the matter between them again. Now they are locked up in the imperial prison of the Jinyiwei, so no one cares about them.

For ministers in the court, if Gao Panlong and Sun Shenxing died in the imperial prison of the Jinyiwei like Zou Yuanbiao, it would be the best result.

There is no need to interrogate or convict, and then no one is responsible. In this case, no one is willing to deal with this matter.

Even if someone wants to act, he will be pressed by the big guys in the court, such as Xu Guangqi and those who are. Although Xu Guangqi and those who are promoted by Zhu Youxiao himself, Zhu Youxiao would not think that they are good at it.

Even Xu Guangqi is the case. They have many methods. Although they are loyal and patriotic, they actually have all methods in the officialdom, and there is no shortage of any of them.

Even if Xu Guangqi and the others can't do it, someone behind them will give them advice. So it's not surprising that Zhu Youxiao did such a thing.

But the Jinyiwei couldn't stand it anymore. Last time, Zou Yuanbiao had already died. If Gao Panlong and Sun Shenxing were allowed to die in the imperial prison of Jinyiwei, it would be difficult to explain.

If it was His Majesty’s intention, it would be fine. Even if Gao Panlong and the others did not die, the Jinyiwei would let them die, which would not be too difficult. The blame is worth it, because it was for His Majesty.

But now His Majesty’s attitude is unclear, and no one knows what His Majesty wants to do. Under such circumstances, the Jinyiwei dared not kill Gao Panlong and the others.

If you want to ensure that they do not die, you must give them special treatment. Otherwise, the environment in the imperial prison of the Jinyiwei is not very good, and it is not a big deal to die.

But if your Majesty is given preferential treatment and you will find out later, if your Majesty clearly wants them to die but you give them preferential treatment but don’t let them die, then how will your Majesty explain?

Therefore, the Jinyiwei must find a way to let His Majesty know about this matter, and it is best to test His Majesty's attitude.

The Jinyiwei had no choice but to ask Chen Hong for help.

Chen Hong definitely doesn't want to do such a thing, but he has no choice.

Chen Hong has a high status now and is the eunuch with the highest status in the palace, but his actual power is not that great. Without the support of the Jinyiwei, Chen Hong was trampled under his feet every minute. This is a result that he cannot bear.

If they don’t help Jinyiwei, they say, “You will be there whenever you get benefits, but when you really encounter problems, you will leave without paying attention.” What should I do?

So Chen Hong had to bite the bullet and get today's arrangements.

Zhu Youxiao naturally knew it, so he only let Chen Hong take over thirty court battles. Otherwise, his arrangement today would be a death sentence.

He was testing the emperor's will, which was the most taboo thing. So even if he was beaten, Chen Hong looked relieved.

Now Chen Hong has told the Emperor about this matter, and then he will wait for the Emperor to react.

If the emperor had no reaction and pretended that he hadn't known about this at all, then Gao Panlong and Sun Shenxing would continue to stay in the imperial prison of the Jinyiwei as they are now.

If the emperor responds otherly, it means that the emperor will give an order to deal with it. No matter what the result is, at least the Jinyiwei knows what to do.

Seeing that Zhu Youxiao had already walked in, Chen Hong hurriedly followed.

After walking towards the garden, Zhu Youxiao found that there were many people coming here, standing together in groups of three or five talking, and the atmosphere looked very good.

However, Zhu Youxiao soon discovered that it was different, because although they stood in groups, they were clearly separated from each other, and occasionally when their eyes were intertwined, they would emit a different kind of energy.

If we put it in a mysterious sentence, it is that there are electric sparks flashing between their eyes. This proves that not all of these people are together.

Things became very interesting, and Zhu Youxiao smiled in his heart.

Zhu Youxiao read a record in his previous life, and the summary of "The Questions of Wang Xue" says: "The demise of Ming Dynasty means that the demise is in the portal; the portal begins with the party; the party begins with lectures."

Although I am not a lecture here today or a literary class, Zhu Youxiao thinks it is not much different.

I want to see what these people will say. Some things are always false, but I still see them.

Zhu Youxiao quickly found a place to sit down.

Soon someone noticed Zhu Youxiao because he was wearing a gorgeous outfit. This outfit was not cheap at first glance, and few people present could afford it.

At the same time, there were two servants standing behind Zhu Youxiao, and the two servants looked not simple either; there was another person in front of him serving him to drink tea.

Zhu Youxiao looked like a rich young man, and it was difficult not to attract people's attention.

However, no one came up to make friends for a while. Such a rich young man may be difficult to make friends, and he will even get quarrels about others and say that he is suspected of making friends with wealth, so no one came up to do such a thing.

Some people were not afraid of this, and looked at Zhu Youxiao who was very interested, and finally walked over.

He hugged Zhu Youxiao with fists, and the person who came smiled and said, "I have met Brother."

Zhu Youxiao also stood up, imitated him, and said politely: "Be polite and polite."

He said, looking at the other person.

This is a very young scholar. Judging from his dress, he should be fame and fortune, and he may be a juren.

This is quite interesting.

The clothes Zhu Youxiao is wearing now are basically not very similar to a scholar, but rather like a rich young man.

Zhu Youxiao didn't expect that the other party came here to make friends with him at this time.

"I wonder what my brother is called?" Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. I'm here, Song Yingxing, and I've met my brother." Song Yingxing said with a smile.

Zhu Youxiao looked at the other party with a little surprised face.

Is this a person named Song Yingxing?

This is really a coincidence. But it seems that this person has to be kept and cannot be allowed to run away.

"It turns out it's Brother Song. I've met Brother Song after I'm here." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

"Young master Shiruyu, my good name." Song Yingxing said with a smile: "I just saw my brother sitting here, so I came here to make friends. I wonder if I could sit with my brother?"

"Of course, of course, Brother Song, please." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

So the two of them sat down together.

Zhu Youxiao first spoke, "I'm not hiding it from Brother Song, I'm actually here to join in the fun. I heard that there is a literary gathering here, so I came here. But in fact, I don't know what it is doing here at all. I wonder if Brother Song can tell me?"

When Song Yingxing heard Zhu Youxiao say this, he was stunned, then laughed and said, "It seems that I'm really here."

"What does Brother Song mean?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Just just now, I felt that this is very unusual. But many people around me were interested in it. If they didn't come, it would be difficult for me to come, so as not to be irresponsible. But in the end I couldn't help it."

"Now I see my brother so free and easy, I know I'm right."

Zhu Youxiao looked at Song Yingxing and asked hesitantly: "Will someone say anything? Isn't that just like the lingering woman in the city view? Such people dare to call themselves scholars? Do you dare to say that they are learning the way of saints?"

Looking at Zhu Youxiao in surprise, Song Yingxing didn't seem to expect him to be so bold, but he still smiled and said, "For you, the tongue-in-law, you should be a big white man. But without wine, I will toast my brother with tea instead of wine."

As he said that, Song Yingxing raised the teacup in his hand.

Zhu Youxiao took a sip of tea with him and said with a smile: "Brother Song hasn't told me yet, what is the so-called literary club here today? Isn't it really a desire to make friends with literature, right?"

"Make friends through literature?" Song Yingxing curled a sarcastic smile on his lips and said disdainfully: "It's not about making friends through literature, but about forming cliques."

"This time, the person who organized the literary meeting was Wei Dazhong, who was Gao Panlong's apprentice. He has been connecting with everyone these days and has been running for his teacher. But in my opinion, this person is very pedantic." Song Yingxing said coldly, looking down on him very much.

"What does this mean?" Zhu Youxiao asked in confusion.

"I just read a book and read it stupidly." Song Yingxing said with a smile.
