My husband, please respect yourself. The princess is here to grab the bride.

"Mother-in-law, this..."

He bowed again, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the princess:

"Let's talk about family matters when we get home."

"Child, you've endured so much injustice for over ten years. It's not easy!"

"Please sit down. After we get back, your mother-in-law will ask Qing'er to give you a good rest... As a son-in-law, you are half a son. Your mother-in-law will not treat you unfairly."

"As for Changying, don't worry about anything."

"If Changying knew you were so talented, she would definitely be overjoyed."

Bai Shaoqiu opened his mouth: "But..."

"There's nothing wrong with that. The palace has its own rules. If Changying still doesn't agree... Mother-in-law will help you!"

"no……"

"Okay, you must be tired now that you can enter Lanting today. Sit down and have a cup of tea first."

"They are both famous scholars in our Xingguo. Come, come, let your mother-in-law introduce them to you."

The princess changed her usual indifference and showed great enthusiasm:

"This is the master of this place, Mr. Si, and this is Mr. Fang, the master from Kyoto."

"They think highly of you."

"This is your honor, and also the honor of the palace!"

"Spend more time with them. It will only benefit you..."

What could Bai Shaoqiu say?

He has already met the great scholar Si, so the other one is the great scholar Fang.

He bowed to everyone and said, "I am honored to meet you, Mr. Si and Mr. Fang!"

The two old men also stood up at this time, and Mr. Fang even patted Bai Shaoqiu on the shoulder:

"Brother, you are being too formal!"

"He is indeed a young hero, handsome, upright, and well-read!"

Bai Shaoqiu was dumbfounded: "...I don't deserve it!"

"No, brother, there are only a few people I like in my life, and you are one of them!"

"Who can endure for more than ten years?"

"How many people are on the fifth test?"

"How many young men in the world can write such soul-stirring and heroic frontier poems as 'The Qiang flute plays long and frost covers the ground. Men lie awake, the general's hair turns white, and the soldiers weep.'"

"My brother's talent is not something I am boasting about in front of the prince and princess. It is really as high as a three-story building!"

"The future is immeasurable!"

"It's my great honor to meet you at this age!"

"Of course, if my brother looks down on me...that's another matter."

Bai Shaoqiu was shocked again.

Is poetry so useful?

Isn’t it just a few random copies?

Does this mean that the great scholars of the current dynasty want to be my brothers?

They gave me face, so I have to take it!

He quickly laughed and said, "If I continue to be pretentious, won't it seem a bit exaggerated?"

"Then I won't be polite. Hello, Brother Fang, Si..."

This is wrong!

Mr. Si is the teacher of Miss Lazy. If I become a brother with Mr. Si, then doesn’t that mean I become Lazy’s junior uncle?

Is this messy?

Mr. Si suddenly laughed and waved his hand:

"Call me Brother Si!"

"As for the rest... let's keep it separate!"

They are all passionate people!

Bai Shaoqiu likes it very much.

These two old scholars have not become pedantic because they read too much. You have to admit this, brother!

"Well, I'll be grateful for your kindness, old brothers. I won't refuse."

Si Lao greeted happily:

"Come, come, come, please sit down..."

He turned his head to look at Qi Shaotong and the other two, who were now stunned.

Two famous scholars are vying to make friends with Bai Shaoqiu!

With their lofty status in the literary world, they actually became close friends with Bai Shaoqiu regardless of age difference!

Sounds like they got the upper hand...

Bai Shaoqiu's talent is so damn hard to look up to!

Fortunately, my attitude towards him changed later.

Fortunately, Song Zigui hasn't come back yet.

Fortunately, Bai Shaoqiu was invited to a gathering at Qianweilou tomorrow night——

This meal must be the best!

After drinking, you have to cordially invite him to a long night of partying!

Yes, I have to say hello to Su Sanniang in advance. I think Su Sanniang will welcome me with open arms!

When this news gets out, Bai Shaoqiu will be on par with the great scholars, and his identity will amaze the people of the entire Xiling City!

It will also make all the students of the three major academies in Xiling City bow down in worship!

Not to mention the girls in the brothels.

They are eager to throw themselves into his arms.

More importantly, the palace has fully accepted him!

Even the princess who had previously resented him extremely, greeted him with a smile and spoke kindly to him today.

changed.

The moment they stepped into Lanting, they felt that everything had changed!

Bai Shaoqiu is no longer the good-for-nothing in the eyes of the neighbors in Xiling City!

He has made everyone out of his league!

They must establish a good relationship with Bai Shaoqiu... This is the only thought in the minds of the three young men, Qi Shaotong, Zhuo and Qiu Shanyue, at this moment!

"You three are all good, please take a seat."

Mr. Si's words brought the three of them out of their shock.

But how could they have the courage to sit with the prince, princess and two great scholars!

Zhuo and his group bowed quickly and said cautiously:

"Sir, I shouldn't refuse your invitation, but... we would feel very uncomfortable if we took a seat."

"The three of us will be waiting by your side. It is our greatest honor to listen to the comments from the prince, princess, and the two great scholars!"

Mr. Fang looked at the three of them and waved to Mr. Si:

"What the young man said is right. It's better to be more comfortable on the side."

"Come on, come on, Brother Bai, sit next to me!"

Without saying anything, Mr. Fang dragged Bai Shaoqiu over and pressed him onto the wooden stool next to him.

He lifted his sleeves and picked up the four pieces of paper on the table.

Qiye returned with water.

Place the kettle on the stove.

He looked at Bai Shaoqiu who was sitting at the table calmly.

He took three steps back and stood behind Mr. Si.

"Hmm...Brother Bai used charcoal pencil..."

Mr. Fang found the poem written in charcoal from the four pieces of paper, and his eyes suddenly lit up:

"Another Mantingfang?"

"Mantingfang, Snail Horn's Empty Name"

"Empty reputation and tiny profits are nothing.

Everything is fixed, whoever is weak is strong.

While I still have some free time and am still young, I will let go and be a little wild.

In the past hundred years, the whole sect has been drunk... 36,000 times!"

Mr. Fang turned and looked at Bai Shaoqiu: "Brother, are you really under eighteen years old?"

"Why does this poem seem to have the clarity of an eighty-year-old?"

"In the previous poem, 'Fisherman's Pride', my brother wrote it in a heroic manner, 'The sounds of the border rise from all directions. Amidst the thousands of mountains, the long smoke and the setting sun close the lonely city.'"

"After this song 'Mantingfang', my brother actually felt like quitting again..."

Bai Shaoqiu touched his nose and thought to himself, brother, you're thinking too much!

Mr. Fang's gaze fell on the paper again:

"Thinking, how much can you do?

Worry, wind and rain are half the hindrance.

Why bother arguing to the death and talking about the pros and cons?

Fortunately, I am facing the clear wind and bright moon, the moss is spreading and the cloud curtain is high.

Jiangnan is beautiful, with thousands of kinds of fine wine.

A song... Man Ting Fang! "

"This poem..."

Mr. Fang frowned slightly, and read it carefully again before looking at Bai Shaoqiu:

"Brother, you've experienced ten years of setbacks and have finally seen through fame and fortune, and gained a deep understanding of life!"

"Come on, come on, tell me about your past ten years!"
