Chapter 479

Gu Dongqiao didn't think about concealing his intentions, and he wasn't afraid that his words would spread. This is called Yangmou.

The feedback from Xu Weigong and Xu Jinyi was also very fast, but the attitude of the feedback was completely opposite.

Xu Weigong politely rejected the sincerity requested by the old leader Gu, and was unwilling to withdraw Qin Dewei's poem from Fangshu Tower by Mochou Lake.

Probably because Wei Guogong relied on his status and disdained to put on a posture of praising the high and trampling the low.

Perhaps Qin Dewei's poems written in Fangshulou have higher artistic value, and there is nothing to change.

On the other side, Xu Jinyi showed his sincerity and was willing to remove the original Qin Dewei inscribed poem in Dongyuan and replace it with Huiyuan Xu Gu's poem.

In the ninth year of Jiajing's reign, the East Garden rebuilt the Gathering Collection, which was the time when Qin Dewei was a fledgling, Xu Gu also participated and left poems.

So the words are all ready-made, and then they can be dug out and re-carved in stone.

The results of the examination were passed to Nanjing in mid-March, and when Mr. Gu returned to Nanjing to preside over the celebration, and after a preparatory process, the time came to early April.

Qin Dewei's serious relatives and family members didn't feel much about other people's publicity.

Qin Dewei's uncle, Qin Xiang, is only worried about two things now, the first is that Gu's labor is only a month or two away, and the second is how to repair the Jinshi Memorial Archway.

As for the hustle and bustle of the literary world, Qin Xiang did not fluctuate. He is a government servant and does not mix in the literary world, so he is not sensitive to the affairs of the literary world.

No matter how arrogant Mr. Gu is, it seems that it will not affect Qin's social circle at all.

As for Mrs. Gu, apart from the increasingly restless fetus in her stomach, what else could she care about?

As for the bank, since I know that my little husband's Jinshi is secure, there is no need to worry about it for the time being.

But Qin Dewei's peripheral friends, such as Xu Laosan, Gao Changjiang and others, were filled with righteous indignation, but they were powerless to stop the general trend.

Until the day of Yaji, in front of the main hall of Xu Jinyi's East Garden, the original iconic huge carved stone had been removed.

But the new carved stone has not been finished yet, so a colorful pavilion can only be temporarily built here, and the poems written by Huiyuan Xu Gu for the East Garden are hung.

The people who participated in today's gathering were led here first, and gradually gathered together, while the old alliance leader Gu Lin stood beside the colorful pavilion.

On his left is Yan Song, Shangshu of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, and on his right is Xu Jinyi, a local host, forming an obvious chairman.

The host, Xu Jinyi, stared at Caiting, wondering what he was thinking.

Gu Lin first appeased Xu Jinyi, the big benefactor, and said, "Don't worry! From now on, Xu Shicheng will be the name card of Nanjing!
I, Gu Lin, have worked hard in the literary world for decades, so can I still have no appeal?
As long as you take advantage of Huiyuan's momentum, it will be enough to make Qingxi Poetry Club's position in Nanjing unshakable. In the future, we will cooperate with you for a long time and get what we need! "

When the number of people is almost reached, the music will start on both sides.

Then the old leader Gu officially said: "Today's grand meeting is to celebrate Xu Shicheng's reunion, but I also have a few things, I will take this opportunity to tell you gentlemen!

First, for many years, the lords have praised me and made me the leader of the Jinling literary circle, but now I feel that I am unable to do what I want.

Seeing that in recent years, rising rookies come out one after another, I have the intention of giving up talents. "

Then Gu Lin pointed to Xu Gu's poems in the colorful pavilion and said: "There is Xu Shicheng who is number one on the top list and shines in the southern capital, isn't he the one chosen by heaven?

Therefore, I would like to ask Uncle Da Zong to be a witness. I want to entrust Xu Shicheng with the affairs of the Nandu literary circle of the main alliance, as well as the status of the head of the Qingxi Poetry Club! "

"Hahahaha!" Suddenly, someone laughed impolitely, interrupting Old Leader Gu's words.

From the looks of everyone, it turned out to be a beautiful young man with a dandy air all over his body.

I saw this dandy young man pointing to the old leader Gu and said: "What a fool! There are champions everywhere, but Nanjing sees a Huiyuan so flattering and touting, I am afraid that we will make our Nanjing literary world a laughing stock in other places!"

Then the young man raised his arms and shouted: "Only Qin Dewei is a unique landscape figure in our Nanjing literary world!
You old man insists on a Huiyuan to support the facade, who will take it seriously in other places?It's like being blind! "

Most people couldn't figure out the background of this arrogant young man for a while, but Xu Jinyi's face was not very good-looking, and he scolded: "Xu Shi'an! Don't meddle in your own business! Otherwise, I will drive you out!"

Xu Shi'an, the youngest Xu Shi'an, who finally sneaked in, closed his mouth resentfully, still very unconvinced.

Gu Lin continued: "Secondly, I would like to say a few words about literature.

I think the Jinling context originated from the Six Dynasties, and the imagery of the Six Dynasties is the foundation of Nanjing literature, and it is also a unique feature that distinguishes it from other places. It must not be thrown away!
Therefore, the new Jinling style that has been circulating in the past two years is simply forgetting the ancestors. In my opinion, it is all heresy!Our Qingxi Poetry Club absolutely does not tolerate this kind of atmosphere!

From now on, all local literati who advocate the new Jinling will not be fellow friends of the Qingxi Poetry Society!

Those who are obsessed with obsession will cut off their seats and sever their friendship, and get rid of them! "

Hearing this, the literati participating in the meeting looked at each other in blank dismay. Over the years, they have never seen the old alliance leader be so ruthless.

The new Jinling style was advocated by Qin Dewei. The old leader wanted to use the method of either friend or enemy to force everyone to follow the trend. Wasn't it just to isolate Qin Dewei?
Xu Shi'an sneered loudly again: "You old man, you can only show your prestige in the city of Nanjing, and I don't see you making a name for yourself outside!
A person like you would rather drag the entire Nanjing literary world to become a laughing stock in other places than let yourself lose your status in the Nanjing literary world!
My milk brother Qin Dewei once said that some people have such a temper, they would rather be with foreign enemies than family members, I think it is you! "

Gu Lin said with a sullen face: "Whatever you say, what does the matter in the literary world have to do with you, a world official?"

Then he said to everyone: "If anyone disagrees, you can leave!"

Most of the people didn't move. Now that the situation is unclear, wouldn't it be very eye-catching whoever leaves at this time?

People like Qin Dewei can ignore any rules, but ordinary people can't.

But there was always someone else. A young scholar walked out of the crowd, gave a deep salute to the old leader, and then left without saying a word.

After everyone saw this person clearly, they were all shocked, it turned out to be Wang Fengyuan, Wang Jishan, the closed disciple of Old Leader Gu!

Although it has long been heard that the master and apprentice have parted ways, the two have not broken up in public.

Unexpectedly, today Wang Fengyuan would openly "rebel" and leave the school under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Then a few more people stood up, gave a "bah" to the old leader Gu, and left together.These are all scholars from Jiangning County School, such as Gao Changjiang and others.

Old leader Gu glanced around again, even if those few left, there are still hundreds of people left!This is the appeal I have accumulated over decades!
I have always been the mainstream, as long as I strengthen the sense of opposition and stir up heresy and controversy, no one wants to be excluded from the mainstream if they want to mix in the circle!

Xu Shi'an couldn't help mocking again: "If Qin Dewei was in Nanjing, old man Gu dared to do this, but I admire you as a hero!

Just like in the past few years, even though you were beaten by Qin Dewei every year, no one looked down on you, after all, others didn't even have the right to be beaten.

My nanny brother said a poem, Er Cao's body and name will be destroyed, and the rivers and rivers will not be abandoned forever!What's the big deal about a mere Huiyuan! "

Old leader Gu sneered a few times, and said to Xu Jinyi: "You don't care about making trouble like this?"

When it came to his own interests, Xu Jinyi couldn't bear it anymore, and he waved his hand resolutely, not caring about the kinship of the same clan.

Then several house slaves swarmed up, shouting "Master An is offended", lifted Xu Shi'an and walked out.

The meeting place was finally cleared up, and the old leader Gu said again: "There is a third thing, the Qingxi Poetry Club wants to expand its allies!
Those who are willing to join our Qingxi Poetry Club can show me their poems today."

Suddenly a servant rushed over and reported to the master, Xu Jinyi:

"Outside there are yamen servants knocking gongs along the street to announce the news! The yamen just received a good news, and the champion of the new division is Qin Dewei from Nanjing!"

One sentence immediately exploded the group. For everyone, they have never heard such an incredible thing in their life.

This horse-riding man, Nanjing City can actually produce the number one scholar?Did the emperor take the wrong medicine for alchemy?

But this kind of thing can't be deliberately faked, right?After everyone was astonished, Qi Qi looked at Gu Dongqiao again, how could this old gentleman step down now?

There is an urban legend in Nanjing that Qin Dewei slaps the old leader Gu in the face every spring, which can be called an annual repertoire in the Nanjing literary world in recent years.

Everyone originally thought that this year might be interrupted, but they didn't expect that the inertia is still so tenacious!
Mr. Gu used Huiyuan as a gimmick to manipulate public opinion today, but Qin Dewei came up with the champion.

I don't know who took the lead again, and the crowd went out one after another while digesting the huge shock.

Many people are still secretly glad that thanks to the timely news, they have not yet joined the Qingxi Poetry Club.

Not long after, there were only a dozen or so scattered people left at the grand gathering, all of whom were true hardcore Gu Lao leaders.

The big sponsor Xu Jinyi's face became even more ugly. He finally felt that the so-called appeal of the old leader Gu might be a little watery.
He shouted at the servant: "Quickly move back the previous engraved stone!"

But the servant pointed at Xu Shi'an helplessly and replied, "The master said to deal with it casually, and then the engraved stone was taken away by Mr. An at a cost. It is the one that was carried out just now."

Xu Jinyi: "."

The elite literati from all over the city gathered here today. Everyone had fantasies about the number one scholar, but they never expected that the number one scholar would come to Nanjing unexpectedly.

But the number one scholar is not himself, but the person who has been reciting poems and composing lyrics since he was 12 years old, pretending to be a pick-up girl, sweeping gangsters and fighting in the officialdom, and who seems to be the least diligent in studying.

The huge crowd walked out of the East Garden in a daze, scattered into various streets in a daze, and then found that the whole city of Nanjing might be fried.

A new record is circulating in the market, this is the youngest champion in history!

Originally, it was a very peaceful day. Entrusted by her husband, Mrs. Jiang went to Gu Zhai on Sanshan Street to visit her "niece-in-law" Mrs. Gu who was about to give birth.

Then Jiang's eyes became a little hot, and when she went back and entered the house, she said to her husband Qin Xiang coyly, "How about you and I work harder?"

Qin Xiang and Qin Tutou were indifferent in his heart, pretending to be stupid and saying, "What are you working on?"

If the hard work was useful, the past ten years would have yielded results.

Jiang was dissatisfied, and pushed Qin Tutou to the bedroom, "What's the matter if you try again for a few years? Don't you count on your nephew?"

When Qin Tuotou had nothing to hide, someone suddenly slammed on the door hard, which resolved Qin Tuotou's predicament.

A guard outside the door said out of breath, "My lord asked me to invite you over!"

Then he added: "Your eldest nephew won the first prize!"

Qin catcher's head and legs went limp, and he couldn't even stand while holding on to the door. This was too scary!

It took a month for the eldest nephew to be a Jinshi, so why is there another champion?
The officer continued: "The county magistrate asked me to breathe, and said that you should resign as an officer and stop being a head arrester in the future."

"Why?" Qin Tutou woke up suddenly.

The messenger officer explained: "Now the Zhuangyuan Gong has no other elders in Nanjing. Speaking of which, you are the only one, but you are a lowly servant, so it doesn't look good to say it.

So what the county magistrate means is to let you find a successor, and then you will take off your cheap status, so don't embarrass the champion. "

Qin Butou: "."

In the Qinhuai Old Courtyard, Wang Lianqing sat in a daze in the hall without makeup, while Chen Laobusa was talking to her:

"Have you thought about it? If you really don't have the heart, I won't advise you, but please find another remote courtyard to live by yourself and make room here."

Suddenly a servant girl rushed over and said to Old Bustard Chen: "There are a lot of people outside! They want to see what the number one scholar's confidante is like!"

Old Bustard Chen was puzzled: "What champion?"

The maid replied again: "I heard from the guest that Mr. Qin has won the number one prize!"

Old Bustard Chen was stunned, and tried her best to squeeze out a smile and said to Wang Lianqing: "My dear girl, look at this, it's all money!

You are just like in the past, just drink tea with you! "

After waking up, Wang Lianqing suddenly got up and walked out, but Madam Chen hurriedly stopped her: "Where are you going?"

Wang Lianqing showed the key in her hand, made up her mind and said, "Didn't you ask me to find another place?
I moved to Qingxi Qin's House to live, not to occupy the courtyard here, anyway, he gave me the key before he left.Then find a way to go to the capital! "

Outside the door of Mr. Xu, the Commander of the Right Guard left behind in Nanjing, there is a very obstructive boulder, moved from the East Garden, engraved with Qin Dewei's debut works in the ninth year of Jiajing.

The main reason is that the boulder cannot be moved into the gate of Commander Xu, so it can only be temporarily placed by the wall outside the gate.

Wei Guogong Xu Pengju suddenly thought of visiting relatives, so he ran to Commander Xu in a condescending manner, touching the boulder to look around.

Commander Xu and his son stood behind the Duke, and heard the Duke say, "Three times the price, I'll buy it!"

The old commander Xu was very helpless, covered the mouth of the youngest Xu, and replied: "If you like the Duke, you can just move away! But I'm afraid that the god-sent brother will come to make noise again."

Wei Guogong chuckled, "I'll put it in the ethnology, see if uncle still has the face to ask for it!

No, there is no Xu family school anymore, it is now called Zhuangyuan Academy!After all, it is the place where the number one scholar came out! "

Commander Xu: "."

Overnight, Nanjing City suddenly had a lot of places named after Zhuangyuan.

The private school of Wang Yijing, Qin Dewei's teacher, has a plaque of "Zhuangyuan School".

Taibai Building in Wuding Bridge, where Qin Dewei often went to eat and drink, was directly renamed Zhuangyuan Building.

The square where Qin Dewei's Qingxi house was located was renamed Zhuangyuanfang, and the nameless alley in front of the gate was also renamed Zhuangyuan Lane.

Dagongfang Sociology, which drove away Qin Dewei at the beginning, shamelessly changed its name to Zhuangyuan Sociology.

Even Wang Meiren, who became popular again, got a new nickname, called Zhuangyuanhong
 The past few days have been the lowest state since I wrote this book. I don’t feel anything at all, and I don’t have time to adjust. Hey
