Lan Ke Qi Yuan Chapter 147: Prince’s Family Banquet

However, Ji Yuan doesn't need to pay attention to the matter of the third young master. Leave it to Master Yin to deal with it on his own.

Ji Yuan took a few steps away and greeted the approaching figure of Lao Long without saying a word.

As Lao Long approached, he saluted Ji Yuan again, and the latter extended his hand to lead him. The two parties walked to a corner of the street in a tacit understanding, and turned their attention to Yin Zhaoxian's crowded stall on Wenqu Street.

"Mr. Ji will not leave Gyeonggi Province until spring?"

Similar to the Provincial Examination Guibang, in Dazhen, Chunwei also refers to the imperial examination in the capital. Originally it only corresponded to the joint examination, but now it refers to the final results such as the palace examination.

Ji Yuan looked at the "third young master" who had approached Yin Zhaoxian's stall. He did not use his power to drive away the crowd, but stood aside with interest to watch Master Yin write.

Hearing Lao Long's question, Ji Yuan pointed at the "Third Young Master" and asked a question in reply.

"Mr. Ying, does he know who the new man is?"

Old Long followed Ji Yuan's direction and saw that the man was somewhat impressive. There were several mortal warriors with strong energy and blood standing in various directions beside him. If he took a closer look at the energy, he could see the man's energy. His complexion rose, with a hint of purple hidden within it.

"Looks like he is a relative of the emperor?"

"Yes, this man likes to call himself the 'Third Young Master' when traveling, but he is actually the 'Prince of Jin', the third son of the current Emperor Dazhen."

"Oh, the third son of Emperor Dazhen."

Lao Long has little interest in this. Even though Tongtian River is close to Gyeonggi Prefecture, the rise and fall of the Dazhen Dynasty is meaningless in his eyes. In contrast, Yin Zhaoxian is more favored by Lao Long.

Ji Yuan takes a look at Lao Longdao:

"Although Dazhen often established his eldest son as a prince, the current emperor is still young, powerful and has his own personality. He has been slow to establish a prince, which is even more annoying to the older eldest son."

Old Long became slightly interested.

"Mr. Ji thinks that this Jin Wang may be the future crown prince or even the next Dazhen Emperor?"

"Haha, I can only say that it is possible, but his sharp edge is too obvious, and he is surrounded by dangers in the great battle."

Old Long frowned and looked at his good friend. It wasn’t that he thought there was anything wrong with this sentence, but that sometimes he really couldn’t see through Ji Yuan. He seemed to be interested in everything, and seemed to be interested in nothing. Not very interested.

"Mr. Ji, today is the end of the 30th year of the New Year. It is a crucial day for mortals, and it also has special meaning for us. How about we follow the old man back to the water house to talk about it?" Of course, you can also bring Yin Zhaoxian with you, this scholar is quite good."

Ji Yuan saw the serious look on Lao Long's face and quickly turned his head away.

"Confucian scholars are interested in the country, so it is better not to let Master Yin have too much contact with things outside the world. Besides, Ji is also somewhat interested in this matter. The King of Jin is not going to attend the palace reunion banquet, so why is he here to see Yin Zhaoxian? ? Oh yes, this emperor doesn’t like to hold palace dinners..."

Speaking of this plan, I also invited Lao Long.

"It would be boring to eat and drink in Huishui Mansion. Why don't you, Mr. Ying, join us today to observe the festivals on earth? Especially the aura of this imperial city, there must be something interesting to see at the turn of the new year."

Lao Long also smiled when he heard this. What he did depended on who he was with. In the past, he had naturally not felt anything about this, but since Ji Yuan was interested, he became a little interested.

"Since Mr. Ji is enjoying himself, I will accompany him."

In this case, Ji Yuan did not intend to show up in front of Yin Zhaoxian. He smiled and stretched out his hand to lead him, and he and Lao Long approached Yin Zhaoxian's stall. However, their figures gradually faded, and they were already ignored in the eyes of ordinary people. .

At this moment, many other scholars on Wenqu Street gathered around Yin Zhaoxian's stall to watch.

Yin Zhaoxian is indeed very talented. The Spring Festival couplets he wrote are not only outstanding in calligraphy, but also have neat and neat meanings. He is obviously different from other scholars. Shi Yusheng on the other side has become a person who specializes in collecting copper coins.

It’s just that writing too much will inevitably make your hands sore. Yin Zhaoxian has already rubbed his wrists several times. Fortunately, although there are still many people watching, there are not many people who actually buy the words.

“The ice and snowflakes have disappeared, and the mountains and rivers are colorful again. Winter has gone and spring has come to China, and China is once again in a variety of colors.”

"It's so well written!" "Yes, I heard that this person is Jizhou Jieyuan, named Yin Zhaoxian!"

"Really, no wonder!"

……

I don’t know who spread the news, but Yin Zhaoxian has only been setting up a stall here for two days, and he has already become well known, especially today, where it is extremely popular.

When I finished writing this couplet, no one came forward to ask for words. The "Third Young Master" who had been watching for a while then spoke.

"Yin Jieyuan, do you still remember me?"

While he was talking, the servants on the side had quietly separated the crowd and drove away the onlookers, the scholars and others. Others did not dare to say anything after seeing this posture.

"How can we drive people away..." "That's right, I still want to buy some words!"

"Shh... stop talking." "Let's go... you can't afford to mess with me..."

……

Yin Zhaoxian turned to look at King Jin and was stunned for a moment. Of course he knew this man, but he didn't know his name and could only say one sentence.

"Remember."

"Haha, just remember. I have read both "The Theory of Birds" and "The Theory of Knowledge". They are very wonderful. My master also caught a glimpse of "The Theory of Birds" when he came to my house. , I found it very interesting after reading it. There is a banquet at home today, and I think that Yin Jieyuan must be lonely thousands of miles away from home. I hope Yin Jieyuan will show his favor and come with me to the banquet. ”

"Yin..."

Yin Zhaoxian looked at the situation around him and seemed to dare not say "no".

“It is better to obey orders than to be respectful!”

While talking, Yin Zhaoxian looked around for Shi Yusheng, and finally found that the other party had also been driven aside by the servants of the "Third Young Master", with no intention of being accommodating.

"Then go now. Let the scholar surnamed Shi clean up your stall for you."

The King of Jin directly made the decision for the two of them, then turned and left. Yin Zhaoxian had no choice but to put down his pen, confessed to Shi Yusheng and left with the two guards.

The more Shi Yusheng thought about it, the more wrong he became. Wasn’t this kidnapping?

Clenched his teeth and asked others to look after the stall, and then ran away quickly to report to the official.

. . .

Yin Zhaoxian never thought that the so-called reunion banquet was actually in the palace, let alone that this "third son" was actually the King of Jin.

Today's Emperor Dazhen has a strange habit. He likes to hold a reunion banquet in the palace at noon, and there is nothing in the palace at night. Sometimes he will take his concubines to visit the homes of his close sons, thinking that the palace The high garden in the middle hall has deep family ties, which is not as interesting as the palace of several sons.

This year the emperor went to Prince Wu's Mansion, while Prince Jin held a small banquet at his home. There were no princes or ministers in attendance, but only close confidants.

The magnificence of the palace still dazzled Yin Zhaoxian. He also couldn't understand how He De could attend such a gathering since he was just a small Jizhou Jieyuan.

On the contrary, Ji Yuan, who came with Lao Long, had some thoughts.

The servants came in with greetings of "Hello, Your Majesty!" and "Hello, Your Majesty!" along the way. Yin Zhaoxian and Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, not daring to speak and just followed.

"This must be Yin Jieyuan!"

A loud shout came from the palace, startling Yin Zhao first, while King Jin had already moved forward and handed over to the visitor.

"Teacher! This is Yin Zhaoxian and Yin Jieyuan, the literary leader of Jizhou's generation."

"Don't take it, don't take it!"

Yin Zhaoxian sweated when he heard the compliment.

"Yin Jieyuan, this is my teacher, the prince's young master Li Mu Shu!"

An old man in a Confucian shirt had already arrived nearby. King Jin also introduced him to Yin Zhaoxian, who hurriedly saluted.

“I’ve met Mr. Li!”

"Hahaha, no need to be polite, Li has already read "The Theory of Birds" and "Zhizhiyi". Li admires Yin Jieyuan's talent! At that time, I told the King of Jin that such great talents must be captured in in your hands, otherwise others may take advantage of you.”

Hearing these words, Yin Zhaoxian's back felt hot again. It was no joke to find the prince's faction in Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com, but now it's hard to get off the tiger.

"Gong Li is too praised, too praised!"

When King Jin saw that his teacher was chatting with Yin Zhaoxian, he was about to leave again. It was customary to enter the palace before evening to symbolically invite his father.

"Teacher, let's talk to Yin Jieyuan. I'll go to the palace first."

"The prince will leave on his own. Yin Jieyuan will be entertained by me. He will definitely not be able to escape! Hahahaha..."

The King of Jin also left with a smile, while Yin Zhaoxian apologized awkwardly.

"Hahaha, Yin Jieyuan, don't be nervous. Today is the Jin King's family banquet, and there are no court officials. The Jin King also appreciates Jieyuan's talent, so he invites you to come. You will sit next to Li in a moment! ”

"Thank you Mr. Li. To be honest, Yin's back is dripping with sweat."

Yin Zhaoxian's sincere and interesting answer also amused Li Mushu.

"Hahaha...please, let's go to the side hall to talk about "The Theory of Birds" first."

"Mr. Li please come first!"

Now that the matter has come to this, Yin Zhaoxian has no choice but to look at it more openly.

Ji Yuan and Lao Long were standing in Prince Jin's Mansion, watching Yin Zhaoxian's uncomfortable look from beginning to end but not showing up to rescue him. Lao Long also smiled.

"Master Yin is quite popular. Haoran's righteousness doesn't work well in such polite situations!"
