And according to the urine of this Cao, after drinking too much in the hook column, he must have held a certain Oiran a few times, and then couldn't get out of bed the next day, and when he could stand up, the imperial examination was over, so this thing was naturally ashamed to tell people the truth, so he simply put on makeup and only wanted to be a hooligan in the rivers and lakes, rather than a gentleman in the court.

Not...... After Duan Shaojun made up for it like this, he felt that the ten things he had made up in his brain were the truth. Cao Zhongde didn't notice Duan Shaojun's lewd smile, and he was still boasting about the benefits of participating in this poetry investment review conference.

Duan Shaojun secretly pondered for a while, if it was really as Cao Zhongde said, the top three would definitely be able to win, then he would definitely be able to hit the top three for three or five hundred times. Doesn't that mean that your own imperial examination is already a stable place to be nine out of ten?

I touched my chin and thought about it. "Since Brother Tai is so sincerely invited, if the younger brother doesn't agree, it will be too much to say, and the younger brother is willing to give it a try."

It took a long time to spit on the star's son, Cao Zhongde, Shaojun, agreed, and couldn't help but be overjoyed. "Okay, I'm waiting for you to say this, otherwise, wouldn't I be regarded by those northerners as no one in Jiangnan this year."

"Brother, why do you feel so stressed by what you said?" Duan Shaojun smashed his mouth, and from Cao Zhongde's words, he heard a trace of ominousness, or an ominous premonition.

"Alas...... Brother Shaojun, I won't hide it from you for my brother, this time, there are a lot of readers in Jiangnan, but if you are familiar with the scriptures, there are indeed a lot of people in the Four Books and Five Classics, but there are very few outstanding people in poetry, and we are very worried about Zhongzhong who represents the arbiters of Jiangnan scholars, if there is not even a top three, wouldn't it be a big loss for my Jiangnan scholars? ”

"Now in the northern part of the branch, there are endless talents, whether it is Sun Qi from Dengzhou, Shandong, or Li Yuqiong from Jinyang, although these two are older than you, they are also handsome, and Li Yuqiong's singing has been more than a year, but it is still sung by the world, and there are also from ......" Cao Zhongde kept wrenching his fingers there with a bitter face.

Although Duan Shaojun was not familiar with this celebrity in a different time and space, he was still frightened by Cao Zhongde's solemn tone. "According to what you said, this time the poetry conference, the northerners are nine out of ten?"

"I'm only talented in Jiangnan, but this time, hmm...... Fortunately, there is a virtuous brother to you, otherwise, you will really lose face. Cao Zhongde said as a matter of course.

Duan Shaojun scratched his head, and couldn't help but be a little crazy. "Obviously, I only represent myself, how can I hear you say this, my win or loss will become whether our Jiangnan scholar circle will be slapped in the face by the northern scholars?"

"It's okay if you understand it that way." As Cao Zhongde spoke, a pot of wine had been exhausted, and the maid brought him a pot.

Duan Shaojun was speechless, he really didn't know what to say, but since he had already agreed, Duan Shaojun was really not afraid, what about a few momentary talents, how could you compete with those masterpieces that have been passed down through the ages in my mind?

Shaojun's face was indifferent and he didn't care at all, which made Cao Zhongde feel very pleased, indicating that this guy was really very strong in his heart, or he was also very confident.

"I'll explain this to you, you have to submit your work to the Spring and Autumn Society before July 10, remember to put your name, and I am your introducer, you know?" Cao Zhongde took out a copy from his arms and handed it to Duan Shaojun, saving him any mistakes in the procedure and causing this virtuous brother to fail to advance, which would be a big loss.

"Well, brother Tai, don't worry, I will definitely hand over the manuscript to the Spring and Autumn Society at the beginning of July." Duan Shaojun replied after taking it.

"Okay, the big thing is over, come, for my brother, I wish you all the way through the hurdles and win the championship." Cao Zhongde laughed loudly and raised a cup to invite him to drink, but Duan Shaojun could only accompany this drunken maniac to drink half a glass.

If it's low-alcohol wine, if it's high-alcohol wine, Duan Shaojun, who has never drunk morning wine, promises that he won't be able to do anything today, and he will be like a frosted eggplant for a day.

"By the way, there's another thing, my aunt wants to see you. Let's go quickly, it's still early in the morning, so I'll accompany you over as a brother. "Cao Zhongde has drunk more than two catties of wine since he entered the house, but the more he drinks, the more excited he becomes.

"You mean Old Madam Cao wants to see me?" Duan Shaojun was stunned. "Why did Mrs. Cao see me?"

"What? My aunt and grandmother can't see you, a life-saver? Cao Zhongde rolled his eyes angrily, and beckoned Duan Shaojun to clean up quickly, so that he could go with him to meet his aunt and grandmother.

Duan Shaojun, who was helpless, could only explain a few words to Xu Xiangjun, and followed Cao Zhongde out of the mansion and went straight to the north of Beijing.

When you enter the fang, the side is not as crowded as other fangs, one door is next to another, and here, the door of each mansion looks so exaggerated and luxurious. Shaojun was amazed, and even, this guy was still in the Jin Palace, Duan Shaojun was lying in a big groove at that time, damn, where did Li Xuan, this stinky boy, hide during this time?

Brother, I came to Jingshi, you don't come to say hello, forget it, I don't even see a face, it's really too unusual, well, when I see Mrs. Cao, I will come to find the fork of this goods again.

Duan Shaojun, who had made up his mind, followed Cao Zhongde to a mansion, and the scale of this mansion seemed to be no less than Li Xuan's Jin Palace. And here, it is the mansion of Zhao Linfu, who is now under one person and above ten thousand.

The tall mansion, as well as the two thousand-pound stone lions placed outside the mansion gate, and the arrogant guards standing at the gate, Duan Shaojun felt his heart sink for no reason.

"It turns out that Gongzi Cao has arrived, please hurry up, the old lady is in a hurry to wait for you." One of the guards stepped forward, glanced at Duan Shaojun lightly, and then saluted respectfully towards Cao Zhongde.

"This Duan Gongzi is the person the old lady named to see." Cao Zhongde waved his hand, pointed at Duan Shaojun and said to the guard.

"It turns out that this is Duan Gongzi who saved the old lady, please hurry up." The guard took a thoughtful step back, waved the door open, and let the two in.

Duan Shaojun lowered his voice and whispered in Cao Zhongde's ear. "Unexpectedly, today's dignified ruler is actually your cousin."

"How's it going? The officialdom is dirty, not a good place, for my brother, I am very glad that I had that hangover back then, otherwise, wouldn't I have to fall into this rotten quagmire and never have the strength to get up. Cao Zhongde shook his head and sighed lightly.

Duan Shaojun Zhongde's face looked very gloomy, knowing that he was not telling a lie, people in the art world like him have always been willing to maintain a sincere heart, and if he retains such a sincere heart and wants to mix in this filthy officialdom, it will indeed make him more uncomfortable than slaughtering him.

And this Zhao Linfu's reputation is really bad, if it weren't for the trust of the Son of Heaven, how could he have the authority he has now, and the reason why today's court is so dirty is that Zhao Linfu's credit is not small.

Perhaps there is also such a reason that Cao Zhongde would rather linger in Fireworks Willow Lane than enter this dirty circle.

The Zhao Mansion is really a good match with the gate of its mansion, covering an extremely wide area, Duan Shaojun and Cao Zhongde walked through a lot of corridors, and they only walked less than half of the way, and there is still a lot of distance from the courtyard where Mrs. Cao is located.

And at this time, Cao Zhongde's pace suddenly paused, and Duan Shaojun quickly stopped and looked. Two middle-aged men were drinking in a gazebo, and at this moment, one of them, a middle-aged man in his fifties wearing a dark brocade robe, had already gotten up and beckoned to this side. Another man in a purple robe also stood up, but deliberately one position behind.

"Who's that buddy?" Duan Shaojun lowered his voice and asked in a whisper in Cao Zhongde's ear.

"He is my cousin, Zhao Linfu, the current ruling court ruler. The other is Xu Enlin, the court lieutenant, who is in charge of Dali Temple, and this time he will be the chief examiner of the imperial examination......" Cao Zhongde lowered his voice and replied quickly and quickly, then reluctantly led Duan Shaojun to the pavilion.
