All the students in the Jieying Club were talking among themselves, some were filled with sadness and indignation, some were shaking their heads, and some were smiling bitterly.
Soon after, Wang Run, on behalf of Jieyingshe, said to everyone: "In this Xuemei Literary Meeting, Mr. Du wrote three Mingzhou poems in a row. His literary talent is outstanding, and Jieyingshe is willing to fall behind."
"We admit defeat."
As soon as the words fell, the students of Hanyi Club cheered.
After three years of being suppressed by Jieying Society, and seeing that he had been suppressed by the opponent for four consecutive years, Hanyi Society finally made a comeback.
Everyone is excited!
Extremely excited!
"It's rare for your Hanyi Club to win, so according to the rules of the literary society, our Jieying Club will win the prize."
After Wang Run finished speaking, he placed a silver note worth one hundred taels on the table.
This is the rule.
"Farewell."
Finally, Wang Run's eyes fell on Du Ning, and a flash of hatred flashed in his eyes.
"Let's go!"
Wang Run didn't want to stay long, so he left with the people from Jieying Club.
The students of Hanyi Club are still cheering, intoxicated with joy.
"If Mr. Du's three Mingzhou poems are spread, they may be published in "Nanping Wenbao", and the name of the poem will be spread. From now on, we will have to honor Mr. Du as 'Du Mingzhou'."
"Congratulations to Du Mingzhou, it's so gratifying that our Hanyi Club has finally produced a 'Mingzhou'!"
Many people learned to stand up and congratulate.
Li Changsheng bowed to Du Ning and said gratefully: "Thanks to Mr. Du's three poems in unison today, I, the students of Hanyi Society, are proud and proud, and I, a descendant of a humble family, can hold my head high in front of the powerful. Please accept my bow."<
/p>
The other party’s bow represents the gratitude of the entire Hanyi Club students.
"The leader of the society must not do it."
Du Ning hurriedly helped him up and said, "Du just did what he should do as a Hanyi Club student, please don't worry about it."
"Master Du is a noble man."
Li Changsheng smiled and said: "If Mr. Du doesn't dislike me, call me 'Brother Li' from now on, so as to make me appear closer."
"Thanks to Brother Li for your kindness, Du is more respectful than obeying orders." Du Ning said with a smile.
"Fellow literary friends of Hanyi Society, please listen to the next words."
Li Changsheng said to everyone: "Thanks to Mr. Du today, I Hanyi Shewen Yajieyingshe, Li suggested that the lottery prize of one hundred taels of silver should be divided into two parts, and one part of fifty taels should be given to Mr. Du as a reward.
As a reward, another fifty taels will be purchased for stationery to add more pen and ink to everyone. Do you agree?"
"Absolutely not. Fifty taels of silver is too valuable. Du deserves it."
Du Ning hurriedly refused. He worked part-time for others and only earned a dozen taels of silver a month at most. How could he accept so much money?
In the literary competition between the Hanyi Club and the Jieying Club, the winning prizes were all pieced together by students. Du Ning got fifty taels of silver at once. How did you feel about it?
Li Changsheng said: "Master Du, you are so humble. You have three poems today to praise the state. How can it be compared to a mere fifty taels of silver?"
"Well said! Mr. Du has made a great contribution and deserves this award."
"Master Du, this is not only Brother Li's wish, but also the wish of all of us."
"Just accept it!"
Everyone smiled and tried to persuade each other, as if Du Ning was more happy to accept fifty taels of silver than to give them fifty taels of silver.
Li Changsheng continued to say to Du Ning: "In the spring of next year, the Fuwen Academy will recruit a group of new students. Mr. Du can use this money to sign up."
"With your knowledge, it shouldn't be difficult to get admitted to Fuwen Yuan. By then you will not only be able to study in Fuwen Yuan, but also have a student status. You will have the opportunity to participate in the imperial examination in the future. Once you have achieved fame, you will be successful wherever you go in the future.
I won’t be bullied.”
Hearing this, Du Ning fell silent.
There are nothing more than two kinds of foundations for scholars to conduct themselves in the world.
One is the title of the novel.
Refers to reputation in the literary world.
The poems and articles written by scholars spread far and wide and became known to every household, which is the name of the novel.
Usually, a person with a more prosperous literary reputation has a higher status in the literary world.
The second is fame.
Those who gain fame can join the imperial court and participate in politics to benefit the people of the world.
If you can get one of these two, you can establish yourself no matter where you are.
If you have both, that would be even more amazing.
In the literary world, students are everywhere, and in the court, he is extremely popular.
That's like calling the wind and rain, omnipotent.
"Master Du, don't hesitate, don't let us down." Li Changsheng advised.
"In this case, Du is ashamed to be the leader." Du Ning finally agreed.
Li Changsheng took out four silver notes worth ten taels and ten taels of broken silver and handed them to Du Ning. He said slowly: "Buy yourself two more books. If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me."
."
"Thank you, Brother Li." Du Ning said gratefully.
"Brother Yu has a cruel request."
"Brother Li, please speak."
"I want to hang your three Mingzhou poems in the main hall of Hanyi Society to encourage students from poor families to work hard." Li Changsheng said seriously.
"Brother Li's suggestion is very good."
"Three Mingzhou poems hang in the main hall, honoring the ancestors."
"You are truly a role model for our generation!"
The students in Hanyi Club were even more excited and envious of Du Ning.
You must know that for a scholar, if the poems he writes can be hung in the main hall of a literary society, the name of the poem will be spread to ten people, and spread to hundreds of people.
Li Changsheng's original intention was to inspire students from poor families, but at the same time he could also help Du Ning pass on his literary reputation, so in the hearts of students from poor families in Nanping Prefecture, Du Ning would have a certain status in the literary world.
"Thanks to Brother Li's love, Du was flattered. How could He De dare to hang the poems in the main hall of the literary society? I can't be so shameless."
Du Ning hurriedly shook his head and refused.
"Why is this?" Li Changsheng was puzzled.
Du Ning said: "Du has just become a Confucian and Taoist scholar. If he hangs three poems in the main hall of the literary society in one go, I don't know how much controversy it will cause."
"Even if we in Hanyi Club don't have any objections, Jieying Club doesn't think so. They will definitely think that Du is too arrogant and do something that will affect Du's reputation."
"Although Du is right about what happened today, he has offended a powerful person after all. Du doesn't want to get into trouble."
After hearing what Du Ning said, Li Changsheng was shocked.
I didn't expect Du Ning to have such a long-term vision, which made Li Changsheng appear abrupt.
"In this case, please allow Li to hang these three poems in the side hall of Hanyi Society. It will inspire students from poor families and will not give Jieying Society an opportunity to take advantage of it. Isn't that a problem?"
/p>
"This... okay..."
The other party has already said this, so Du Ning is no longer embarrassed to refuse.
"On behalf of the Hanyi Society, Li expressed his gratitude to Du Mingzhou for his poems."
Li Changsheng bowed to Du Ning again, extremely grateful.
He thought that Du Ning's current Confucianism was too low and his literary reputation was too small, so he was not suitable to hang his poems in the main hall of the literary society.
After Du Ning was promoted to Confucianism and became famous, he would have the three Mingzhou poems moved to the main hall, which would be justified.
"Brother Li's words are serious, I am ashamed of myself." Du Ning hurriedly bowed in return.
…………
On the streets of Nanping Mansion, Wang Run, Zhao Dongcheng and others walked side by side.
At this time, the faces of these students from the Jieying Society were very ugly.
Today at the Xuemei Literary Meeting, many students from Jieying Society were embarrassed because of Zhao Dongcheng.
Therefore, everyone does not have a good view of Zhao Dongcheng.
But Zhao Dongcheng also feels uncomfortable.
He obviously wanted to take advantage of this Xuemei Literary Meeting to slap Hanyi Club in the face, but in the end he was taught a lesson by the students of Hanyi Club.
This shocked Zhao Dongcheng greatly and he hated Du Ning deeply.
If it weren't for Du Ning, Jieying Society wouldn't have lost so miserably today.
"Today at the Xuemei Literary Club, Du Ning dared to humiliate our Jieying Club like this. This is simply a great shame. I, Zhao Dongcheng, am also a ninth-grade scholar, and I have never suffered such humiliation!"
Zhao Dongcheng said in a low voice, very angrily: "Brother Wang Run, Du Ning's article today on our Jieying Society is simply an insult to the fact that we have no one in the Jieying Society. I'm afraid that in a few days, the entire Nanping Mansion will be
The three Mingzhou poems by Du Ning are popular."
While speaking, there was a look of jealousy in his eyes.
"This is not a small matter. It would be nothing if only one Mingzhou poem was published, but three poems were published at the same time. What should we do? If this matter spreads, how will our Jieying Club lose face?
"Zhao Dongcheng clenched his fists.
Wang Run snorted coldly and said slowly: "If you hadn't used rogue tricks to force that Du Ning to compose three Mingzhou poems in a row, how could our Jieying Society have been humiliated today? Zhao Dongcheng, you know
I don’t know, but you almost brought our Jieying Society into disrepute?”
Zhao Dongcheng's face suddenly turned pale when he heard this, he gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Du Ning must have borrowed inspiration from others, so he wrote three Mingzhou poems in a row. This person's behavior is so despicable, it is simply in vain.
Scholar, I, Zhao Dongcheng, will never be able to convince him."
"What's the use even if you're not convinced? Regardless of whether Du Ning borrowed inspiration from others, it's an indisputable fact that he sang three poems at the literary conference. You can play a scoundrel once, play a scoundrel twice, is it possible that you can still play a scoundrel?
Is it possible to be a rogue for the third time? At the Cultural Association, you represent not only yourself, but also our Jieying Society, so you have to stop in moderation." Wang Run said.
"Brother Wang Run's words are extremely true. Zhao has learned a lesson."
Zhao Dongcheng said: "The three Mingzhou poems written by Du Ning today will definitely be spread by the poor students in Nanping Prefecture, and will even be known by the three bachelor editors of the Prefectural Academy of Literature, and will be published in the "Nanping Wenbao".
”
"Not only did this literary conference fail to defeat Hanyishe, but it actually made Du Ning's literary name famous. It really took advantage of him." Someone said angrily.
"Hmph! Who said that his literary name will surely make him famous in Suzhou?"
Wang Run sneered and said: "This man is arrogant and disrespectful. He despises the powerful people of our Jieying Society and has no dignity. No matter how good his poems are, what's the use? We can't use Nanping Wenbao to attack his literary reputation."
What?"
Zhao Dongcheng felt much better after hearing this, and said excitedly: "Du Ning has bad conduct. As long as we criticize him in writing, we can make Du Ning a shame to scholars. Not only will Du Ning lose his reputation, but he may also be killed."
."
Hearing this, the students from Jieying Society smiled one after another.
