Although today's Peach Blossom Banquet was hosted by Mu Baiwan, he felt at ease to treat himself as a human set board. Apart from the toast at the beginning, he never spoke again, and it seemed that the key point was so silent.

Originally, these scholars were chatting with each other, but as a merchant, he was not very good at talking. It was better to watch casually and coldly. First, he was self-aware, and secondly, he was also the reason why he had been doing business for decades and knew how to plan before he could move.

Tang Shiyan of Hanjiang Prefecture is also a person Mu Baiwan had heard of. Li Xin personally welcomed Tang Shiyan in. Although Mu Baiwan was not in a state of emotion, he was also quietly observing.

However, after seeing Tang Shiyan's appearance, Mu Baiwan felt a little disappointed. This boy was indeed as handsome as Li Xin. It seemed that he was inferior to the provincial capital at the time and retreated sadly, which was not accidental.

Li Xin welcomed Tang Shiyan in, and smiled and asked the seat, "Brother Tang came from afar, so please sit down."

The scholars present today were all scholars and fame, and they were all under forty years. In terms of reputation and status, Tang Shiyan was one of the best, only slightly inferior to Li Xin.

Therefore, it is reasonable to sit in the seat on the grounds of a distant guest. However, according to common sense, Tang Shiyan naturally had to thank him, and then he would still let Li Xin be the leader, which was normal.

But when Tang Shiyan was about to speak, Ye Xingyuan secretly stepped on him, used infinite admiration and said loudly: "Senior Tang! I heard that you have a great reputation in the provincial capital. I thought it was an exaggeration before, but I didn't expect to be so respected. At such a literary meeting, I can be promoted to be the leader of scholars. I am deeply impressed!"

Ye Xingyuan said this with sincerity and sincerity. As expected, he looked like a young man who had just begun to emerge. After a few words, Tang Shiyan was not easy to give in.

Li Xin was forced to make it true by Ye Xingyuan, and he had to force Tang Shiyan to sit in the first place beyond Mu Baiwan, and he resented himself to the second seat.

This young man must have done it on purpose! Li Xin thought, he was just a few words of politeness. Why did he become "recommended to be the leader of scholars" when he said? Unexpectedly, Tang Shiyan himself was a fool and had a powerful figure rewind around him, so he must be careful.

Fortunately, learning is hard work, so Tang Shiyan is now in the chief executive. If he showed his timidity during the paper, it would be even more embarrassing to see Li Xin could only comfort himself like this and ate two cups of wine in a depressed manner.

Ye Xingyuan shamelessly pretended not to understand, so he sat down next to Tang Shiyan. Although this guy is talented, he was afraid that he could not control this kind of scene and still needed his own help.

Although Tang Shiyan was the guest chief, he was very happy to see Li Xin secretly being defeated, but he was worried that he would not go there for a long time. He didn't even bother to drink too much wine on the table. He just whispered to Ye Xingyuan: "Brother, this chief is not easy to do. You can hold me up. If you can't get the question later, it will be really roasted on the fire."

He had not arrived at the provincial capital for six or seven years, and now he revisited the old place. After a sudden dream, he realized that what he had lost was not only the green years, but also the sharpness of the past.

If it were Tang Shiyan in the past, even if he knew the difficulties, he would never be restless. As the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. But now he is afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back, and he only relies on his anger towards Li Xin to hold on.

When he recalled the unfamiliar saint's scriptures and theories of Shi Wen and theories, Tang Shiyan felt a chill behind him. He had not finished polishing his gun at the last battle.

Ye Xingyuan laughed in his heart and just cheered up: "No matter what, taking one step first is one step. At least it is good to make Li Xin angry at this time, and we will talk about what happened next." Ye Xingyuan knew that he had no confidence in Tang Shiyan in himself, so he could only comfort him in another way.

Tang Shiyan glanced at Li Xin carefully. Although this person looked calm, he was always a little stiff and unnatural when he looked closely. He knew that Li Xin was indeed affected and he was overjoyed. "Thanks to my brother's actions, I don't know what problems they would have to ask later, which made people feel very uneasy."

Ye Xingyuan was too lazy to talk about it anymore. Anyway, Tang Shiyan won't lose, and his waist was straight, and he was calm when answering. After all, with the foundation of a talented man in the Hanjiang River and without the ability to show off, how could he win the title of the first among the four talented men of the Hanjiang Palace?

So as long as Brother Tang is not too timid in the scene, that is enough. According to Ye Xingyuan's plan, Tang Shiyan is to hold on the scene and losers cannot lose. When it comes to Wuwen, he can take action to kill the whole audience in seconds.

With Li Xin's personality, he probably couldn't hold on for too long. Ye Xingyuan thought while drinking and eating, and said, "This person is arrogant and proud, and this seat must have been sat for a short time."

Ye Xingyuan came here today just to convince people with dignity. He simply chose to confront others at the beginning, forcing the other party to use decisive means, and then quickly fight and finish things early to avoid long nights of dreams.

This strategy seemed to be successful. Li Xin could not wait for only three rounds of wine. He walked to the center of the lobby and laughed loudly: "Today, you guys gather to enjoy Taoyuan together. We are the elegant people. How can we not have any writings if you have wine? The poems of peach blossoms have been repeated for thousands of years. Today, we do not write poetry, and it is time for the provincial examination to come, so how about the writings we take in the school?"

This has actually been said on the invitation. Most of the scholars attending the meeting are prepared and just take this opportunity to communicate with each other and discuss the popular trends of recent articles. At this time, they all nodded.

Ye Xingyuan, who was just a little old, clapped his hands and said, "Senior Li's words are very wonderful. The beauty of peach blossoms is light and elegant. It is recorded with poetry alone, and it is inevitable that it is monotonous. If it is not limited to rhyme and prose, it can also be regarded as a view of future generations."

Huh? This idea is good! Tang Shiyan was overjoyed and thought to himself that Ye Xingyuan was indeed anxious. Ye Xingyuan had never accepted invitations. He was young and could only say a few words.

The same articles, Shi Wence's theories are different from those of prose travel notes. Tang Shiyan thought that even though his poetry talent was not as good as Ye Xingyuan, he was better than Li Xin. If he talked about prose, he would at most be half a pound and he would never lose easily.

However, Li Xin obviously would not agree to this proposal. In his eyes, Ye Xingyuan was Tang Shiyan's endorsement trump card. Ye Xingyuan avoided the important things, which only means that Tang Shiyan was still struggling to death.

So he smiled and said, "Brother Ye is still young. Although he is romantic, he doesn't know the god of Confucianism and Taoism. We are trying hard to find out why? It's just the right way to get the imperial examination. It's rare to get a gathering of wise men today. Naturally, we have to try and practice for the current academic province. How can we indulge in fun?"

When Li Xin thought, the young man could not say anything else after this big hat was put on, right?

But Ye Xingyuan frowned and said, "Appreciating flowers is an elegant thing. When we see the beautiful peach blossoms, we are very happy. At this time, the papers are boiling cranes and burning the piano, and I think they will not take them."

Tang Shiyan quietly gave Ye Xingyuan a thumbs up under his sleeve, praising him for being so loyal that he won this level for himself. However, they had already made arrangements today, but I am afraid they would not be able to do it.

Li Xin sneered and interrupted Ye Xingyuan's words, "Your good brother is such a bad word. Today, Mr. Mu summoned you all to appreciate the talents of everyone, and on the other hand, he also hopes that you will discuss the ways of enriching the country and raising the people and sharing the worries of the court and government!

If you do not recognize the sufferings of the people and cannot relieve the people from being overwhelmed, you will write a thousand, ten thousand peach blossom poems. Even if you are in a bunch of flowers, you will only embellish the peace! Being addicted to this theory is actually a person who is a traitor of wealth!"

The more Li Xin said, the more righteous he became, and he had already prepared these words. He hated that no one had raised his words. Unexpectedly, Ye Xingyuan hit the gun, so he naturally shouted loudly without saying anything. This sentence was not only directed at Ye Xingyuan, but also an attack on Tang Shiyan, who claimed to be a heroic talent.

The way to enrich the country and support the people? Ye Xingyuan sneered. For those who like Li Xin who loves to engage in the powerful and powerful families, it would be a damn thing to know how to enrich the country and support the people. Li Xin only felt extremely disgusted after only a while of contact with him. No wonder why Tang Shiyan hated him so much.

Ye Xingyuan thought about it carefully again. In fact, these righteous words should have been said from Ye Xingyuan. Li Xin is that onion again, dare to grab the lines?

Although Ye Xingyuan was unhappy with Li Xin, he had been fighting with various people over the past few months, and he was considered to be a person who moved his energy and body, and his temperament had fundamental changes. He only smiled faintly and said, "Senior Li was sincere, no wonder he was rumored on the street to worry about national affairs and had a long time to give birth to a bright hair. He wished he could become an official as soon as possible. Today, he knew everything."

Dare to Huan! Li Xin looked at Mu Baiwan with guilt. At this time, Mr. Mu was still as old as a god. He picked up a piece of transparent fat on the chopsticks and was squinting his eyes and looking carefully, as if he had heard nothing. Li Xin was relieved.

Even though Ye Xingyuan's words are ironic, they are not usually called a swearing person. But today, Mu Baiwan, who is trying to recruit a son-in-law, is here, so why do you always mention other people's age?

Li Xin was so angry that he could only pretend not to care and said, "Whether to be an official is the second step. We scholars must do our best to the country. We are still young and strong, and we cannot be willing to be a descendant."

Li Xin had to emphasize that he was young and strong. The two conditions of age and widowhood were the points reduction items, and he must not be implicated again.

Ye Xingyuan applauded and praised, "The old horse is in the stable and has ambition for thousands of miles, so good!"

Whatever and what! Li Xin was furious. His words were praised on the surface, but even fools could hear that they meant a slap in the face. In front of Mu Baiwan today, he hated someone to mention an old word the most!

Looking at Ye Xingyuan, who was not as old as the young and thirsty, Li Xin knew that he was born with a lack of congenital deficiencies and would definitely not win the fight, and in the end he would definitely be unlucky.
