(Please collect, please recommend tickets! Thank you book friends Wu Nian Shang Chen and Half Life Rhapsody for your reward~)

Although Xie Shen has been to the county school, it was for taking the county exam.Now that I really enter the county school as a student, my mood is very different.

Anyway, the county school is also a government-run educational institution, which is much higher in grade than ordinary academies, so it's very face-saving to say it.

The boy left his mansion, walked quickly along the Qingshiban Road, and came to the gate of the county school with ease.

The disciple of the county school recognized Xie Shen, and said with a smile, "Student Xie is back? Please come in quickly."

Xie Shen bowed his hands to him and stepped across the threshold.

Sparse students walked out from the academy, Xie Shen saw that they were all unfamiliar, and wondered why they didn't see Wang Shouwen, Xie Pi and the others.

"Isn't this the famous Xie Dean, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

A tall and slender Confucian scholar dressed in dark blue straight gown, with brown half-arms and broad forehead, walked up to Xie Shen and blocked his way.

This person looked seventeen or eighteen years old, but his face was very strange, Xie Shen looked at him with some doubts.

"Who is this boy?"

Xie Shen frowned and asked, he didn't know this person, but the other party took the initiative to chat with him, it seemed not easy.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, he instinctively became vigilant.

"Here, Wang Zhang, is Shouwen's elder brother. You may not know me, but Mr. Wang has seen you. I happened to meet you last time when you came to visit Kong Jiaoyu, and Kong Jiaoyu asked me to ask you more." .”

Xie Shen was a little dazed, he had the impression that Wang Shouwen didn't have such an elder brother, this guy really lied and didn't make drafts.

That Wang Zhang saw that Xie Shen was puzzled, so he explained: "The Shouwen branch was separated from the clan a few years ago, but it still belongs to the Shangtang Wang clan."

Xie Shen suddenly realized when he heard this.

Wang Hua's branch is the Wang family of the Mitu sect, who moved to Yuyao a long time ago and have settled here for generations.It is quite related to the Shangtang Wang family, a local wealthy family in Yuyao.

It is true that the two families are related, but it is too outrageous to talk about genealogy.

In fact, Wang Hua's branch can be counted as distant relatives of the Shangtang Wang family at most. After Wang Hua won the first prize, the patriarch of the Shangtang Wang family once licked his face and begged Wang Hua and returned to the Shangtang Wang family.This proposal was rejected by Wang Hua at that time. Although the head of the Shangtang Wang family had no face, he had no choice but to declare to the outside world that Wang Hua forcibly separated the family.

However, those who have a little knowledge of the inside story are well aware of this, and the Shangtang Wang family is just deceiving themselves.

It just seems that the relationship between Wang Zhang and Wang Shouwen should be good, otherwise Wang Zhang would not marry Wang Shouwen out of boredom.

"It turned out to be Brother Wang, I have admired him for a long time!"

Xie Shen didn't want to chat with him, so he clasped his fists in response, thinking about finding a reason to leave.

"Wang has always admired the chief of the case, and he must clarify it today. It's getting late, if you don't want to go to the restaurant with Wang to have a drink or a few gossips. What do you think of the chief of the case? "

Xie Shen is speechless now, this Wang Zhang is really more familiar than him, he doesn't reach out to hit the smiling face, not to mention that this person is obviously his devout fan, it is really inappropriate to send him away like this
But, but now is the time to enter school!
Xie Shen, who finally found the reason, was ecstatic, and cupped his hands at Wang Zhang, saying: "Brother Wang, Xie really wants to taste wine with Brother Wang, but Xie has just returned to Yuyao and is planning to visit Confucius. How about a banquet?" Let’s talk about it later.”

Wang Zhang couldn't close his mouth in a ridiculous way, and clapped his palms together while saying: "Thank you, the head of the case, now it's past the application time, don't talk about Confucian teachings, how many students do you think there are still in this huge academy?"

That's it!

No wonder when Xie Shen just entered the county school, he saw some students walking towards the gate sparsely. It turns out that school has already left, and all the top students left behind are self-taught
Wang Zhang was afraid that Xie Shen would not understand, so he explained from the side: "I am afraid that the chief of the case, Xie, does not know the admission time of D County School? Except for the half-monthly routine exam, which needs to be in the school for a whole day, the rest of the time only needs to be admitted. You can study for half a day."

"What about the rest of the day?"

Xie Shen asked helplessly.He thought he had a good understanding of the imperial examination system, but now it seems that he still has a lot to learn.

"The rest of the half day is naturally to fight poetry!"

Wang Zhang proudly boasted: "Brother Yu is not boasting. If the Haitang Poetry Society founded by Brother Yu is the second in this county, no one dares to be the first. If the leader of the desk can join the Haitang Poetry Club, we can Let's beat the crowd together!"

What Wang Zhang said was hype, but Xie Shen was beating drums in his heart.

This Wang Zhang is not too young, and he comes from a wealthy family like the Shangtang Wang family. It is reasonable to say that he should have won the exam, but he is still fooling around in the county school, and it seems that his knowledge is not very good.

How high is the taste of a poetry club founded by such a person?
However, poetry clubs were indeed popular among scholars in the Ming Dynasty.Especially after Chenghua, the world became extravagant, and poetry clubs became the best choice for arty scholars.Touting each other can not only satisfy the vanity of these scholars, but also have the effect of advertising, so why not do it?

In an era when information was not well developed like the Ming Dynasty, the smell of wine was also afraid of deep alleys. How could you be famous without advertising?
Don't you see that the four great talents of the Ming Dynasty are mostly blown out.In terms of talent and learning, how many can compare with Yang Shen?

In the Wanli Dynasty, both the number and scale of poetry clubs reached their peak, and prostitution under the guise of poetry clubs was very common.

However, in Xie Shen's impression, the Poetry Society of Hongzhi Dynasty had not yet developed to such a degree.

Xie Shen shook his head and said, "It seems that things like fighting poems go against the teachings of saints, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate."

He thought to himself that there are only a few hundred poems in his brother's belly, and good steel must be used wisely.These poems can not only be used to make friends with famous officials, but also can be sold for money in the collection of poems. If it is used for fighting poems, it is really not worthwhile.

This is not in line with Xie Shen's behavior style, no, absolutely not!
"Sage enlightenment, Xie Dean still believes in this? Forget it, if Xie Dean's reputation is taboo, you don't have to fight poetry, but you must join this poetry club."

Wang Zhang acted like if you didn't join my poetry club, you wouldn't give me face, and he kept Xie Shen in a dilemma.

This is not a good choice no matter how you look at it.

But if he agreed to Wang Zhang, it would be more like digging a hole for himself.

When Xie Shen was in a dilemma, a familiar voice rang in his ears.

"Brother Shenxian, haha, you are back. Why don't you go to the mansion and let us know, come on, let's have a drink together today. Hey, isn't this Brother Zhang? Come on, let's go drink together!"

The first moment Xie Shen saw Wang Shouwen was like seeing a relative, but when he heard Wang Shouwen's turning point, he was in despair.

He is really not afraid of opponents like gods, but teammates like pigs!
