Chapter 40: Appointment at this time, meeting on the Mid-Autumn Festival
After the Chinese Magpie Bridge Poetry Festival, the news that the Emperor's Starlight re-spreads the world quickly seemed to be secretly spread throughout the continent. People were amazed at the night of the starlight, and began to whisper and talk about the big question of who the Emperor had recognized and where the "true destiny" of the human race was. For the human race, the reappearance of the galaxy is well-deserved as the first-class event in a thousand years.
Since the Emperor Star was in the sky above Liang when it appeared, the most mentioned people are still talking about this matter.
Of course, the people who tend to the latter are more likely to be the people of Liang. They believe that since the Emperor Star appears above Liang, the saints are naturally born in Liang.
People in Chen held completely different views. They believed that the Prince of Liang had been born for more than ten years and Emperor Star did not react at all. But when Prince Zhaixing went to Liang State, and after awakening his courage, Emperor Star appeared. Who is the true emperor? Isn’t he going to come out?
As far as the whole continent is concerned, the Chen people's views have been clearly recognized. First of all, in terms of national strength, Chen Guoyuan, who ranks among the three strong countries, was better than Liang Guo;
Secondly, as for the two princes, Chen Zhaixing, who was one of the three masters, has accumulated a lot of literary spirit for many years and has not yet been silenced. Every move is extremely eye-catching. Moreover, he awakened his silver literary courage at the Qixi Magpie Bridge Poetry Conference, and the limelight is towards Jiang Yutang; on the other hand, Prince Xuanlin of Liang, has no literary talent and martial arts, and even in Liang, his sharpness has always been covered by Princess Hongyu, which is really inferior to Chen Zhaixing;
Finally, and most importantly, Emperor Star chose to appear after Chen Zhaixing awakened the silver literary courage, precisely because Chen Zhaixing, who had awakened the literary courage, had just become a saint, and the name of Prince Zhaixing also faintly echoes today's theory. Isn't Zhaixing the star and the star exactly the meaning of "the emperor appears and pick it with one hand"?
After a few days, the public has been talking about the people. For those upper-class people who have more information, the causes and consequences of these discussions have many things that cannot stand scrutiny. However, throughout the ages, rumors have been possessed by the power of bewitching people and are most jealous of the rulers. Therefore, among the ten countries, some countries have begun to control related discussions. As for Jiang and Jin, who are also the three powers, they showed great disdain for this statement: "When Emperor Gaozu of Han showed his might, he killed the son of Baidi with one sword. How powerful is it? Although the prince of Chen awakened his silver literary courage, he was smashed to the ground by the word "a talented man in Liang State". Is there such a true emperor in the world?
Moreover, the sky is vast and boundless, covering the earth in all directions. Even if the Emperor Star really appears again, you, Liang, Chen and Liang, cannot be recognized by your Liang and Liang Kingdom so hasty. The choice of the Emperor Star is not a joke. Naturally, the most wise and virtuous person in the entire human race can live there."
Later, some people said that after Emperor Star appeared, he hid again, probably because after observing Liang Xuanlin and Chen Zhaixing, they found that neither of them was enough to entrust the important task and went to find another saint.
Different camps, various discussions are all the same. As the king closest to this matter, Emperor Liang naturally has his own opinion. Since the emperor star was covered by the starlight that night, how could the human emperor have nothing to do with the person who made some star words?
That day, Emperor Liang told Princess Hongyu that he wanted to invite Chen Renzhong to be the Grand Tutor of Prince Xuanlin. Princess Hongyu was overwhelmed, but after listening to Emperor Liang's inferences, he made up his mind to promote this matter.
Emperor Liang said at the time: "The emperor star in the sky can shine on the world with the help of the starlight he led, so the true destiny of the world naturally needs the assistance of him, the poet, to achieve great achievements."
Princess Hongyu originally intended to ask Xuanlin to worship Jiang Zhong as her teacher. After listening to her father's words, she became more determined to this idea. However, there were still differences between the father and daughter in the specific aspects of the apprenticeship. Emperor Liang felt that since Chen Renzhong wanted to be the crown prince's tutor, he could not continue to be the husband of the Fan Mansion. The courtesy was disagreeable, while Liang Hongyu insisted on asking for courtesy, and could not force Prince Xuanlin to be the king's order. Moreover, there was no need to let Prince Xuanlin specialize in the teacher's teacher. Liang Hongyu persuaded: "Looking at the Fan Mansion, Fan Hulu would take over the family business in the future and let Xuanlin become classmates. Not only did Chen Renzhong's promise, but he also made friends with the Shangsheng Family in the future. This would be beneficial to Xuanlin without any harm."
Finally, Emperor Liang approved Hongyu's request and arranged for the matters related to the prince's apprenticeship this time, which was the reason why she and Xuanlin appeared in Fan's mansion today.
When Jiang Zhong saw Princess Hongyu, Prince Xuanlin was sincere. Although he knew that there was something else in the test just now, he no longer cared about it. He said a few humble words and agreed. In less than three months, he accepted the two richest and most respected students of Liang State. When he thought about it, he was quite touching.
For Fan’s mansion, Fan Baotong was able to become classmates with Prince Xuanlin, so naturally he could only be happy and not object. With this backer, Fan Baotong could stand firm in Liang State. On the contrary, Fan Baotong looked meaningful, with no joy or sorrow.
After the ceremony was made, Princess Hongyu said she wanted to visit Mr. Fan. At this moment, Zhou Da came to invite him: "The old man, please invite Princess Hongyu and Mr. Xiao Chen to the back garden to get together."
Princess Hongyu smiled and said, "It's a coincidence", and then asked Prince Xuanlin to follow Fan Baotong to Xueerxuan. She followed Zhou Da to Fan Mansion Back Garden. On the way, she talked about the Chinese Valentine's Poetry Festival. Princess Hongyu was very grateful, and her words were filled with gratitude.
After arriving at the back garden, Mr. Fan had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Princess Hongyu, he got up to greet him. Princess Hongyu was not arrogant at all. He returned the junior gifts with Jiang Zhong. After some greetings, the three of them sat in the octagonal pavilion. Princess Hongyu said, "I often hear people say that the old man loves to watch the clouds in the back garden. I only realized that the scenery of Fan Mansion Houyuan is pleasant and it is indeed worthy of its reputation."
Mr. Fan said, "If the princess likes it, you can come often."
Princess Hongyu smiled and said, "The old man loves quiet, how dare Hongyu disturb her from time to time."
Seeing Princess Hongyu's modesty and courteous conversation with Mr. Fan, Jiang Zhong couldn't help but sigh: "As long as Mr. Fan can safely soak his feet in the back garden of the Fan Mansion, no matter how the younger generation of the Fan Mansion is playing tricks, no one in the world dares to make an idea of the Shangsheng Family."
Suddenly, Princess Hongyu took out a piece of jade the size of an egg. The jade was blood-red all over, and the color was restrained, and it seemed a little dark and inconspicuous. Princess Hongyu said, "When I was young, I got this jade gift from my old man and I have been wearing it all the time. Sure enough, I was warm in winter and cool in summer, and I was invincible in all diseases. Red jade can make some progress in martial arts, and it also depends on the merits of this jade."
Mr. Fan waved his hand and said, "The princess is talented and has a great understanding. This red jade is just the icing on the cake."
Hong Yuqian said "a reward", put away Chi Yu and said, "He can't let go of the golden qilin that the old man gave Xuan Lin."
Mr. Fan said: "Princess, the good health of the prince is my blessing."
Princess Hongyu nodded and asked again: "I heard that the golden qilin has one pair of two, I wonder who the other one is given to?"
Old Master Fan smiled and said, "My granddaughter, Baofeng girl."
Princess Hongyu clapped her hands and said, "What a surprise!"
"What do you say about the princess?"
"That day, Miss Fan's poem meeting was full of literary style. Women were not good at giving way, and their style was really amazing. As a result..." Princess Hongyu smiled and said, "As a result, my incompetent brother became possessed after returning to the palace, saying such unconventional mad words as 'marrying a wife should marry Fan Baofeng'. At first, my father and mother didn't care about it. Later, I saw that he was still obsessed with him for a few days, and he was really moved. Therefore, Hongyu came to Fan's mansion this time, in addition to apprenticing to Xuanlin, she also wanted to propose marriage to the old man."
Mr. Fan obviously had expected it, but he still did not expect it and was overjoyed. He said several times, "What is the virtue of my Fan family..." and then waved Zhou Da: "Go and call Changfeng and his wife here."
Zhou Da responded and turned around and left the garden. Princess Hongyu said happily: "Is this my elder brother agreeing?"
Mr. Fan said: "As long as the Changfeng couple nodded, the matter will be settled."
Princess Hongyu nodded and said no. In a blink of an eye, she saw Jiang Zhong stopping and asked, "Mr. Xiao Chen has something to say?"
Jiang Zhong originally wanted to ask "Would you like Fan Baofeng's opinion on marriage matters?" However, when he thought of his conversation with Mr. Fan on weekdays, he knew that asking more questions would be of use, so he gave up. At this time, he heard Princess Hongyu ask, and had to reply: "I think that in another month it will be Mid-Autumn Festival, which is a good day."
Princess Hongyu shook her head and said, "I'm afraid I can't do this Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Why?"
"This Mid-Autumn Festival, Jiang Kingdom will hold a 'Yacai Night Banquet' in Chang'an to invite the civil and military talents of the ten countries to demonstrate the cultural and military virtues of our human race. At that time, Xuanlin will lead our delegation to the meeting, so the engagement ceremony can only be advanced or postponed."
When Jiang Zhong suddenly heard Jiang Guo, he felt a move and asked, "Is the 'Yucai Night Banquet'?"
"Yes, then maybe Mr. Chen will have to trouble him to go to Jiangguo with Xuanlin?"
"I?"
Princess Hongyu smiled and said, "After the Magpie Bridge Poetry Conference, no one in the world wants to see a talented man in Xing. Mr. Jiang Guo’s invitation was specially mentioned."
"Shame." Jiang Zhong responded and fell into memories.
Princess Hongyu glanced at Jiang Zhong with rich meaning and said, "It is said that the little princess in Taihua City will also be present for this night banquet."
Jiang Zhong said "yes".
Princess Hongyu said again: "Yun Feihuang, the little princess of the demon clan, has the bloodline of human and demon clans. She is said to be the manifestation of the phoenix body. She is the number one beauty in the Julius continent and is worth seeing."
