I have been a saint in the world for three thousand years

Although Ji Jingchun nominally came to visit his student Wang Xiuyuan, he was actually coming out for another time.

What happened at Mo Yun Academy that year is now like a flower in the mist, and no one knows the full story.

But with a little inquiry in Guizhou, one can find out that the news of Ji Jingchun's comeback is nothing new.

Of course, this time he was not returning to Moyun Academy to take charge of the academy seal, but was ordered by the court to serve as the Minister of the Central Secretariat.

This is a true important minister of the country and a frontier official.

A senior official like this could crush the entire Yong'an City with just a flick of his finger.

Therefore, the Liu family, which had offended Ji Jingchun in the past, did not dare to be negligent and came out in full force.

Even the head of the family came out in person just to apologize to him.

However, Ji Jingchun is not a petty person, so he naturally won't take these things to heart.

During the days that Ji Jingchun was in Yong'an City, the news had already spread.

Not only the dignitaries of Yong'an City, but also the teachers and students from all the academies in the city came to see him off.

Since he came to see me off, as a scholar, it was natural for him to express his feelings in poetry and show his elegant taste.

"Hey, have you finished writing today's farewell poem?"

A student asked his classmates in a low voice.

The other person hesitated when he heard this, and finally just sighed.

"We were born in this remote town, with little talent and knowledge, how can we create a masterpiece that would impress the great scholar Ji?"

When he said this, his eyes wandered and finally fell on Yan Xiu.

"What's more, a few days ago on the flower boat, Doctor Yan's poetry talent had already astonished everyone. With him here, we are even more ashamed of ourselves."

Another student also shook his head and sighed, with a bitter look on his face.

"Yes, if it weren't for the dark horse Doctor Yan, maybe we would still have some chances, but with him..."

For a moment, everyone felt bitter.

Everyone knows that the poem written by Yan Xiu on the flower boat that night was gorgeous in language, profound in artistic conception, and breathtaking.

When they thought of this, everyone felt that the poems they had painstakingly contrived were so far behind this that they were not even worth looking at.

"Mr. Ji is about to leave for Beijing today. Who among you is willing to write a poem to show respect and bid farewell to Mr. Ji?"

At this time, a middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

He scanned the crowd with a sharp gaze.

For a moment, no one dared to look at him and they all lowered their heads.

This person was none other than the head of the Wu family in Yong'an City, Wu Wangsheng.

"Since we are reciting poetry, there must be a prize."

As he spoke, Ji Jingchun took off a jade pendant from his waist.

"This Ziyang Jade was given to me by a worthless student from Luyang Prefecture. The winner will get this jade pendant."

The jade pendant shone with brilliance, appearing extremely extraordinary.

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the people who were seeing them off lit up, and their gazes all fell on the jade pendant.

Ji Jingchun used this jade pendant as a prize, so it couldn't just be a superficial move.

Whoever obtains this jade pendant will be able to establish a relationship with Ji Jingchun's student in Luyang Prefecture.

In other words, getting this jade pendant is equivalent to becoming half of Ji Jingchun.

Many people understood that if Yan Xiu took action, the item would belong to him.

But he is going to Mo Yun Academy anyway, so what is the point of this?

When he said this, Ji Jingchun gave Yan Xiu a meaningful smile.

But everyone's attention was focused on the jade pendant and no one noticed it.

Ji Jingchun did this to protect Yan Xiu from being persecuted by the ruthless and powerful people in Yong'an City.

They certainly wouldn't dare to have any dissatisfaction with themselves.

But Yan Xiu was just a doctor in a clinic and had no prior experience.

If they knew that it was not Yan Xiu who entered Mo Yun Academy to practice, then Liu Daoyuan, who was insulted on the flower boat that night, would definitely not let it go.

"Since no one is talking, let my Wu family take the lead."

As soon as he finished speaking, a handsome young man stood up.

He bowed to Ji Jingchun and gave his name.

Then he put his left hand behind his back, held the fan in his right hand, and recited his own poems.

"It has been several autumns since I left the imperial court, and today I see you again at the Phoenix Tower.

The scholar's cap is newly adjusted with lofty aspirations, and the jade steps are reopened to save the world.

His wealth of knowledge astounds everyone, and his talent shines throughout the country.

If you enter the Secretariat again, you will surely make the mountains and rivers shine brightly."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was greeted with wonderful applause.

Now that the young master of the Wu family had taken the lead, the others naturally did not want to lag behind and presented their own poems one after another.

For a moment, the area outside the tavern was filled with the atmosphere of a poetry gathering.

Although the young master of the Wu family had a good start, the poems of others were unbearable to read.

Even Ji Jingchun, who originally had a smiling face, gradually couldn't hold back his smile and began to focus his attention on Yan Xiu.

After all, the other party promised to give me a poem before leaving.

Seeing this, others also turned their eyes to Yan Xiu.

Seeing this, Yan Xiu knew it was time for him to make his appearance.

He walked slowly over and bowed slightly to Ji Jingchun.

"It's embarrassing."

As Yan Xiu appeared, the originally noisy and chaotic sounds disappeared instantly, leaving only the faint sound of the breeze.

"Thousands of miles of yellow clouds and white sun."

Ji Jingchun nodded and stroked his beard with a faint smile on his face.

"The north wind blows the geese and the snow falls."

It is mid-autumn now. Although there is no snow yet, it is not far away.

When he reached this point, Yan Xiu took a few steps forward.

"Don't worry about having no friends on the road ahead, everyone in the world knows you."

As soon as the last two sentences came out, it seemed as if the whole world suddenly became silent.

After a while, everyone couldn't help but get goose bumps all over their bodies.

Ji Jingchun even paused in his movements, his mind shaken by the impact of the poem.

"Don't worry about having no friends on the road ahead, everyone in the world knows you."

Ji Jingchun kept murmuring.

At this moment, the past events suddenly came to my mind.

In the end, there were tears in his eyes and his lips moved.

“Good poem, good poem…!”

The young master of the Wu family, who originally thought he could compete with Yan Xiu, was stunned after hearing this poem.

Whether in terms of poetic sentiment or artistic conception, Yan Xiu's poems are far superior to his own.

In the end, he just smiled bitterly and shook his head helplessly.

At this moment, Ji Jingchun came to his senses and handed the jade pendant to Yan Xiu, and asked expectantly: "Does this poem have a name?"

Yan Xiu shook his head.

Ji Jingchun was overjoyed when he heard this.

"How about letting me name it?"

Yan Xiu naturally nodded in response to this.

Ji Jingchun thought for a moment and then spoke slowly.

"Can we just call it "Presented to Ji Jingchun in Yong'an"? "

Yan Xiu smiled faintly and said, "It's all up to Mr. Ji."

Hearing this, Ji Jingchun couldn't contain his excitement and laughed heartily.

Outside the long pavilion, beside the official road.

In the luxurious carriage, Wang Xiuyuan served as the coachman.

Ji Jingchun pulled aside the curtain and waved to the group of people who were seeing him off, signaling them to go back.

After they walked a few more miles together, they waved goodbye reluctantly.

At this moment, someone suddenly made a sound of surprise.

"Doctor Yan, why are you still here?!"
