As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the publicity of various Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meetings is flying all over the sky.

There are only a limited number of famous talents in Jinling City, but there are many wealthy people and groups who are eager to enhance their fame, network and literary atmosphere by holding the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Fair.

For example, Jia Wangsu, a big businessman with a lot of money, spends real money to hold the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting every year, which has been held for eight consecutive years, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger year by year.

Another example is the silk and satin cloth shop, which jointly funded the grand Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting for twenty or thirty years.

As for the famous restaurants or green buildings in Jinling City, holding the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting is a must.

Therefore, as the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, talented and famous talents often receive many invitations.

For example, Qin Xie Yuan and Qin Feng, who were two in two middle and two yuan, almost filled a utility room with invitations he received.

However, this year is different, and the always low-key Chongwang Mansion will also hold a Mid-Autumn Festival poetry party!

The news spread, like a stone hitting a thousand waves, and the entire Jinling City was boiling.

"You know what? Chongwangfu is going to hold a Mid-Autumn Festival poetry party! ”

I saw a group of scholars wearing Confucian robes and folding fans sitting together, and one of the scholars said excitedly and expectantly.

"Haha, Brother Wen Xiang, your news is behind. Nowadays, who in the entire Jinling City does not know that the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting is held in the Chongwang Mansion? Immediately, two or three scholars smiled and said, "We are more concerned about who can get the invitation to the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Club of Chongwangfu." Chongwangfu never holds the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, this time, it must be grand, and the people who can be invited by Chongwangfu must be recognized as a talent in Jinling City. ”

"Not bad, not bad! It is an honor and a recognition to be able to get the invitation to the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Club of Chongwangfu. Another scholar said, "According to Yifeng's knowledge, the main people who have received the invitation to the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting in Chongwang's Mansion are Qin Jieyuan, Qin Boyan, Wang Chengde and Wu Mingde. ”

The scholars couldn't help but feel envious when they heard this.

However, they were all sincerely convinced, and Qin Feng and the other three were all recognized as talented and talented people in the limelight.

When the scholars were discussing who might win the invitation to the Chongwang Mansion for a while, a scholar suddenly said: "Ji Changti is a person, do you think it is possible for him?" ”

"Who?"

"Ji Ning, Ji Ning of Sanwei Academy." The scholar said, "Although his controversy is big, his fame is not small at the moment, and almost the entire Jinling City knows about ......." ”

Before the scholar finished speaking, a scornful voice of disdain rang out, making him embarrassed to continue.

"Ji Chang just let everyone guess, and he didn't think he could get the invitation from Chongwangfu." The scholar blushed and said with a weak heart.

The other scholars said: "Ji Ning will never win the invitation of the Chongwang Mansion!" He should first prove that the poem of persuasion was written by him, not his father's posthumous work. After so many years of learning and skill, how can you suddenly become a poem in four steps, or such a powerful poem? ”

"That's it! If he can get the invitation from Chongwangfu, Liu will be the first to disagree! A scholar said aloud.

Other scholars also chimed in.

……

……

Ji Zhai, in the study.

Ji Ning sat on the chair for a long time and tasted tea unhurriedly, and in front of him stood Yu Ling and He An, who were full of excitement and joy.

A beautifully made invitation card with gold dust is placed on the desk and desk, and the three bronzing characters of "Chongwangfu" are written on the surface of the invitation.

"No, no." Ji Ning put down the teacup and said, "Uncle An, you just go and tell the people in Chongwang's Mansion that I am not feeling well these days, thank them for their kindness." ”

The smiles on Yu Ling and He An's faces couldn't help but condense, and they hurriedly persuaded: "Young Master, this is a very rare opportunity!" In the entire Jinling City, I don't know how many people are eager for an invitation from the Chongwang Mansion but can't. Master, you can't miss it. ”

Ji Ning still shook his head indifferently.

He has the necessary reasons not to participate in any Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, especially the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting held by Chongwangfu.

Imagine, participating in the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting in Chongwangfu, there must be many scholars and talents with ulterior motives at the poetry meeting. They openly asked him to compose a poem at the poetry meeting, did he write it or not?

If you don't write or write a bad poem, you will definitely be ridiculed and ridiculed on the spot, and you will be embarrassed. But if you really write a good poem, wouldn't Shen Kang's painstaking efforts to spread rumors be in vain?

So, simply don't go.

He An saw that Eli could not persuade Ji Ning, so he said: "Young master, the Chongwang Mansion has finally held a Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, if you don't go, I'm afraid, I'm afraid...... Chongwangfu will remember. ”

Ji Ning smiled indifferently and said, "Uncle An, you're too worried. The Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting held by Chongwang Mansion this time is quite grand, and there are many people invited, and the absence of me will not affect it at all. ”

His backer is Shen Kang, a scholar of Fuliang University, whose status is not inferior to that of King Chong, even if King Chong is the younger brother of the current emperor and is deeply trusted by the emperor.

In this world, the imperial power is not the biggest force, and the Temple of Literature is the master of this world.

Therefore, Ji Ning didn't care much about the attitude of Chongwangfu.

When He An was still trying to persuade him, Ji Ning had already waved his hand and said, "That's it." Uncle An, you sent the guests on my behalf, saying that I was sick and couldn't meet the guests in person. ”

As he spoke, he took the invitation card from Chongwang's Mansion and handed it to He An.

Now that Ji Ning had made up his mind, He An had no choice but to reluctantly accept the invitation and salute in response: "No." ”

Yu Ling was quite regretful, but she had long known that her young master didn't want to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, so she didn't dare to show it.

He An took the invitation card and exited the study, and entered the hall to meet the people from the Chongwang Mansion who came to deliver the invitation.

"What? Ji Gongzi is unwilling? When the subordinates of the Chongwang Mansion heard this, they were taken aback, thinking that they had heard it wrong.

You must know that since the Chongwang Mansion released the news that the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting was going to be held, I don't know how many people were frantically looking for a relationship to send two silver and ask for an invitation. He also sent invitations to several famous talents before, which of those talents did not like to receive invitations?

He never expected that there would be people who refused to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting in Chongwangfu.

He An acted with a sad and worried look, and said: "Alas, my family has been infected recently, and he really wants to participate, but he can't move. Originally, he wanted to explain to you in person, but he couldn't get out of bed, so he had to let me receive you on his behalf. Where you are rude, you have a lot of sea. ”

As he spoke, he stuffed a piece of silver into the hands of the people in King Chong's mansion.

The people of King Chong's Mansion received He An's silver taels, and there was nothing to say.

Anyway, in his eyes, Ji Ning himself is not a real talent, but it was only after the incident of Sanwei Academy that he became famous in Jinling City after the incident of Sanwei Academy some time ago, so he was invited.

With a soft hand, the person in the Chongwang Mansion politely cared about Ji Ning's body, and then left the Ji Mansion.

The subordinate of Chongwang's Mansion returned to Chongwang's Mansion and reported to the housekeeper that Ji Ning had retired the invitation due to illness.

He thought it was just a matter of one sentence, but unexpectedly, the housekeeper became serious and carefully interrogated the entire process of sending invitations to Ji Ning.

He didn't know that Ji Ning was one of the people who was named to be invited to the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Fair in Chongwangfu.
