Two days later, early morning, at Fan Mansion.
The Fan family was happily having breakfast.
When the meal was almost over, Fan Jian's daughter, Fan Ruoruo, suddenly said, "Dad, the Third Prince is hosting a poetry banquet at the mansion tomorrow. Do you think I should go?"
"Wait!" Fan Sizhe, who was sitting opposite Fan Ruoruo, asked in confusion, "Sister, didn't they say that this poetry competition requires qualification review? But from the way you sound, it feels like you'll definitely be able to attend."
Upon hearing this, Fan Ruoruo raised her head proudly and said, "Huh, who am I, your sister? I'm a famous talented woman in Kyoto City. Do I need to take an exam to participate in the poetry meeting?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Sizhe stopped talking.
It’s no wonder that Fan Ruoruo is indeed qualified.
Beside Fan Sizhe, Liu Ruyu glanced at Fan Jian and opened her mouth, but didn't dare to say anything.
Although she was the mistress of the house, she was only Fan Jian's concubine, not the mistress of the house.
So in this family, her status is actually lower than Fan Ruoruo.
Because Fan Ruoruo is the daughter of Fan Jian’s wife, and is the true legitimate daughter of the family!
Fan Jian, who was having dinner, sighed inwardly when he heard Fan Ruoruo talking about the Third Prince's plan to hold a poetry meeting.
As the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Fan Jian knew very well what this meant.
He had gone to see Chen Pingping before and asked him to secretly persuade Li Chengyuan not to get involved in the dispute over the succession, as it was a big pitfall.
Unfortunately, Chen Pingping didn't listen to him and he had no way to stop it.
They could only watch Li Chengyuan jump into the "fire pit".
Fan Jian has actually been paying attention to Li Chengyuan.
After all, Li Chengyuan and Fan Xian are both Ye Qingmei's sons.
Although Li Chengyuan is now a prince, he is not close to him.
But Fan Jian didn't care, he was always thinking about Li Chengyuan.
Fan Jian has always hoped that brothers Fan Xian and Li Chengyuan could live a peaceful life and did not want them to take any risks.
But unfortunately, Li Chengyuan has already jumped into the fire pit.
Fan Jian had no way to rescue him.
The only thing he could do now was to get along as well as possible with Li Chengyuan.
Try to help him more.
If Li Chengyuan can really reach the last step, Fan Jian doesn't mind using the whole family's strength to help Li Chengyuan!
So after some thought, Fan Jian said, "Ruoruo, if you want to go, go ahead! When you get there, remember to chat more with the Third Prince. You're both young, so it's good to get closer!"
Fan Ruoruo was stunned.
"Dad, didn't you tell me not to get too close to the royal family? Why are you acting out of character this time?"
"The Third Prince is different! In short, you just have to listen to your father!"
"Okay! I understand!" Fan Ruoruo didn't ask any more questions.
She was actually very curious about the third prince.
In fact, it was mainly because Fan Xian was curious.
In his most recent letter, he asked Fan Ruoruo about the third prince.
As someone who loves her brother, Fan Ruoruo would definitely help find out since this is what her brother wants to know.
So even if Fan Jian doesn't agree, she will go there secretly tomorrow.
And now that Fan Jian agreed, she had nothing to worry about.
Here, Fan Sizhe couldn't help but say, "Sister, can you take me with you? I want to attend the poetry reading too!"
Fan Ruoruo rolled her eyes and said, "Why are you going there? Can you write poetry?"
Fan Sizhe was stunned for a moment, then said in a somewhat unreasonable but confident tone, "Do I really have to be able to write poetry? Isn't it enough to be able to do math?"
Fan Ruoruo: “(* ̄︿ ̄)”
Liu Ruyu: “(lll¬ω¬)”
Fan Jian: " ̄へ ̄"
...
Not only the Fan family, almost the entire city is now discussing the poetry gathering at the Prince's Mansion.
The main reason is that the literary world of Qing State has been weak for too long.
The entire Qing Kingdom is looking forward to the emergence of a literary giant in Qing Kingdom.
And now one has finally appeared, and he is a prince.
How could this not drive the readers in Kyoto crazy?
Whether it is for "pilgrimage" or to curry favor, no one wants to miss this opportunity.
What's more, I heard that those who perform well in this poetry competition will not only receive rewards in cash but also real money.
You can even get a poem from the third prince on the spot!
Just based on this last point, not only the scholars from all over the country, but even the ladies from the noble families in various mansions were going crazy with anxiety.
Clamoring to join the poetry reading.
Then, because there were too many people who wanted to participate, the Prince's Mansion couldn't accommodate them.
Forced into a corner, the Third Prince decided to screen the qualifications for the banquet.
Anyone who wants to participate in the poetry reading needs to submit his or her own work.
It can be poetry, articles, or novels.
As long as you write well, you will be qualified to attend the banquet.
Because time was tight, Li Hongcheng invited many friends to help with the screening.
Even Li Chengyuan himself was not idle.
He also personally follows the judging, but he only looks at the stories!
After all, he couldn't understand articles and poems.
He is just a plagiarist, not a real literary master.
.......
That morning, just after breakfast, Li Chengyuan asked Qingniao and Sang Wen to help him select story novels.
After all, Qingniao and Sang Wen had copied Journey to the West, so they could be considered to have some appreciation ability now.
This is already the third day of their screening.
It’s true that although the literary world in Qing Kingdom is weak, there are quite a few people who can write stories.
Moreover, his writing skills are not very good.
However, in order to increase their chances of winning, many students place bets on multiple parties.
He wrote poems, articles and novels.
Therefore, the workload of Li Chengyuan and his team is no less than that of Li Hongcheng.
.....
11737666
In the study, Li Chengyuan, Qingniao and Sang Wen all sat behind Li Chengyuan's large desk, with Li Chengyuan in the middle and the two women on either side.
On the other side, Lao Huang was lying on a recliner, dreaming about the Spring and Autumn Period!
"Huh? Your Highness, please take a look at this story!"
Suddenly, Bluebird handed Li Chengyuan a piece of paper.
Li Chengyuan took it and took a look, and found that the writing was indeed quite good.
It doesn't reach the ideal level in Li Chengyuan's mind, but among so many "submissions", this is considered an above-average work.
Li Chengyuan originally wanted to pass him directly.
But after taking a look at the author's name, his brows furrowed instantly.
He Zongwei?
It’s actually this guy?
Li Chengyuan was deeply impressed by this person.
It can be said that this person can do anything without any bottom line in order to climb up.
In order to enter the officialdom, he even asked Fan Xian to be his godfather.
But Fan Xian disagreed.
So in the novel, he caused a lot of trouble to Fan Xian in the later period.
When it comes to disgusting people, this guy is definitely an expert!
This is a mad dog.
Li Chengyuan really looks down on such people.
He wanted to just pass this guy by.
But soon, Li Chengyuan thought about it and finally decided to keep He Zongwei.
Because sometimes, having a mad dog on hand is not a bad thing.
After all, if this mad dog is not in your own hands, it may be in someone else's hands in the future.
So instead of being bitten by a mad dog in the future, it is better to hold the dog leash in your own hands and let it disgust others.
Anyway, he is a prince, so he is not afraid of He Zongwei's backlash.
No matter how crazy He Zongwei was, he would not dare to bite back at the prince unless he wanted to die.
