After all, the "Poetry and Literary Society" is an official-sponsored event, and there is no room for officials to despise or even tear down the creative works of literary talents.
When Muchuan was distressed, a familiar voice happened to come.
"Is it Lord Mu?
I finally waited for you to come!"
The person who appeared was none other than Yu Shinan, with white hair and white eyebrows, and full of energy.
It was great to see Yu Shinan appear in love, so Muchuan immediately informed him of what had just happened.
After Yu Shinan learned about it, he fined Hong Feng's salary and demoted him one level in accordance with the regulations.
The punishment was not severe. In the final analysis, Hong Feng just tore up Muchuan's calligraphy works and did not do anything harmful to heaven.
On the other hand, Yu Shinan seemed very guilty. He obviously invited Muchuan in specially, but ended up having Muchuan encounter this kind of thing. It was really a lack of hospitality.
"Master Mu, I'm sorry. As one of the bachelors of Prince Qin's palace, I am also responsible for Hong Feng's actions."
"Master Yu, there is no need to feel guilty. All kinds of rice can feed all kinds of people. I cannot blame you for Hong Feng's behavior."
"Lord Mu, you have a lot of them, which is admirable... By the way, I happened to prepare some wine and food in the wing upstairs. Please come with me, friends, before the poetry party begins."
"OK!"
Just like that, Muchuan and Yu Shinan walked up the stairs while chatting and laughing, and entered the wing room on the second floor of the tower.
On the first floor of the tower, a group of literary talents gathered bustlingly. What happened to Muchuan just now clearly moved everyone, and everyone is still talking about it even now.
"So this is Muchuan, the youngest number one scholar in Chang'an City. It's better to see once than to hear a hundred times!"
"And have you noticed that Muchuan is actually on the same level as Lord Yu! Lord Yu is the founding hero of the country, and his calligraphy skills are astonishing, but Muchuan can actually be on equal terms with such a person!"
"If I can get acquainted with Muchuan, my career will be just around the corner!"
The literati all admired Muchuan very much. After all, Muchuan was born as a commoner and climbed to a high position in the imperial court with his own ability, but he was different from those dandy nobles.
Especially the first-hand calligraphy work that Muchuan just revealed, its fonts are majestic and powerful, and are everyone's style, far from being comparable to others.
Suddenly Muchuan's status was elevated in the minds of many literati, as if he were a god.
However, some people are happy and some are sad. The sad person is naturally Shangguan Baifeng.
It was clear that the literati in the tower were discussing him just now, but in a flash they were all paying attention to Muchuan. This made Shangguan Baifeng feel very uncomfortable, as if he had been knocked down from heaven and fell into the mortal world.
This Muchuan does have some skills, but this is a "poetry and prose meeting", and the competition is only about the ability to write poetry and prose. So what if the calligraphy is good?
This is my territory! Shangguan Baifeng thought this way and decided to show his authority in front of Muchuan later to boost the reputation of his Shangguan family.
As for Muchuan himself now?
He was following Yu Shinan to the second floor of Chang'an Wooden Building.
A wing room at the end of the second floor is antique, with wooden floors, white gauze jade curtains, and white copper lamps on the left and right sides.
After Yu Shinan led Muchuan through the door, he made a gesture of invitation.
Just as Muchuan was about to sit down, a thin figure suddenly appeared next to him. He was a young man, about sixteen years old, wearing luxurious clothes and wearing a square hat with a gemstone in his hair.
The young man seemed very excited, holding Muchuan's palm heavily with both hands: "You are Muchuan! I have heard about your name for a long time, and finally... finally I can see you!"
Seeing the young man like this frightened Muchuan, especially since the other man held Muchuan's hands very hard, which made him feel uncomfortable.
"Hey, who are you?
Quickly let go!"
"Mu Chuan, let's have a long talk and stay up all night! If I catch you today, I won't let you go!"
The young man's eyes were shining, and he looked at Muchuan like a tiger looking at a little white rabbit.
Do you think this young man is a psychologically twisted "Longyang person"?
The kind that likes men?
Thinking of this, Muchuan couldn't help but feel a chill rising on his head. He raised his foot and kicked the young man hard.
The young man received a kick, staggered and fell to the ground. He looked very aggrieved: "Mu Chuan... Could it be that I have done something wrong to make you unhappy? Why do you treat me like this?"
This king?
Muchuan noticed the title of this young man. This man actually dared to call himself the king. How daring he was! Anyone who calls himself such a random thing will be beheaded!
It's just that this young man looks a little familiar, as if he's seen him somewhere?
Muchuan couldn't remember it for a while.
However, Yu Shinan hurriedly bent over to help the young man and said in a nervous voice: "Prince Qin, are you okay..."
"Taifu Yu...I am fine, but why does Muchuan want to kick me?"
Yu Shinan was equally puzzled and asked, "Master Mu, why did you kick the prince?"
King of Qin?
Now Muchuan could hear clearly that Yu Shinan called the young man "King of Qin". There was only one person in the world who had the title of "King of Qin", and that was Li Tai!
Li Tai, the son of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, was talented, intelligent and capable, and loved literature.
Among the many princesses, Princess Gaoyang is the most favored.
So among the many princes, Li Tai is the most favored prince.
Unexpectedly, the boy in front of him was actually Li Tai. No wonder Muchuan felt that he was familiar because he had met him several times before during the morning court.
Now it was embarrassing. Just now Li Tai greeted him warmly, and Muchuan thought the other person was a "Longyang person", so he kicked him without even saying hello.
Now standing on the same spot, Muchuan broke into cold sweat and didn't know how to explain it.
On the other hand, Li Tai had a cheerful personality and laughed and said: "I heard that Master Mu comes from a remote countryside. Could this be the way of greeting Master Mu from his hometown?"
"That's right! King Qin also knows it, right?
This is the way of greeting from our hometown."
"I see, then let me say hello to Master Mu."
After saying that, Li Tai kicked him twice.
These two kicks were also heavy. If an ordinary person received these two kicks from Li Tai, he would probably have left bruises and injured his muscles and bones. Fortunately, Muchuan had an excellent physique and a strong body, so he did not suffer from these two kicks.
What a big deal.
However, Muchuan noticed that Li Taizheng was chuckling, and he suspected that the other party was deliberately playing tricks on him, right?
He called this "kicking" a greeting, so that he could kick Muchuan.
As the history books say, this King of Qin was indeed talented and intelligent, but had a surly and unpredictable personality!
Now after the "greetings", Li Tai put on a serious expression: "Master Mu, I have heard of you for a long time. It is really an honor for me to meet you today."
