Feeling the looks from around her, Tang Ning's biggest regret in a short period of time was that she didn't memorize "Bodhisattva Man" a few more times in her previous life.
The Chu envoy looked at Mr. Li and asked, "Sir Xiao Li, what do you think of this poem between flowers by Tang Jieyuan?"
"The whole body is unified, there is no stray word, and the topic of dressing is written in countless levels. It is truly a unique pen." Mr. Xiao Li looked at Tang Ning and said, "I didn't expect that Tang Jieyuan, as a man, could be so profound.
I admire the way it depicts the loveliness of a woman."
Tangning looked at her and smiled, "Both each other."
Master Xiao Li obviously knew the meaning of his words, so he looked away and said no more.
The Chu envoy smiled and said: "Tang Jieyuan and Mr. Xiao Li have no need to be humble. When it comes to Huajian Ci, there are few people in the world who can compare with you."
Tang Ning didn't want the Chu envoy to compare him with Mr. Li. She was a woman, and it was normal for her to write well about her relationship. There was no comparison at all.
Wang Bo did not agree with his words, shook his head and said: "If the envoy thinks that Tang Jieyuan only understands the relationship between women, he is totally wrong."
He smiled and said, "Listen to another poem written by Tang Jieyuan on the state examination."
After that, he recited the song "Lime Song" impassionedly.
After hearing this, the envoy of Chu State was a little confused for a moment and asked uncertainly: "Did this poem be written on the same day as Tang Jieyuan?"
Wang Bo nodded and said, "That's natural."
The envoy of Chu State looked at him and praised him: "Able to be both tender and bold, Tang Jieyuan is already a master of poetry."
"This is really normal. Tang Jieyuan's wife is known as "the most talented woman in Lingzhou". Tang Jieyuan knows how to love and hate, which is normal." Wang Bo added another sentence before looking at Zhang Hao, the doctor of the Ministry of Water.
Said: "Master Zhang, if you have any questions to ask Tang Jieyuan about the flood control strategy, you can ask them now."
Zhang Hao had already been waiting anxiously. He looked at Tang Ning and was about to speak. As if he remembered something, he looked at Master Xiao Li and the Chu State envoy. He picked up the wine glass and said unhurriedly: "Today is a deer."
The purpose of the Mingzhi Banquet is to celebrate Lingzhou’s son-in-law. We won’t talk about official matters until after the Lumingzhi Banquet.”
Wang Bo was a little surprised. With Zhang Hao's temper, he had been anxious for several days. How come he could sit still at this time?
When he looked at the Chu envoy, he immediately understood.
There are many rivers in the territory of Chu State, and their floods are much more serious than those of Chen State.
Tang Ning's policy, to some extent, already belongs to Chen Guoji, so it is naturally not convenient to talk about it at this time.
In this case, it is not easy for Mr. Song Qiansong to speak at this time.
He looked at Ling Yihong and said with a smile: "Although Tang Jieyuan is knowledgeable, he is still too young and does not understand medical skills. Regarding that epidemic prevention policy, does Mr. Ling have anything else to advise?"
Ling Yihong immediately shook his head: "No, no..."
Wang Bo smiled and said, "You're welcome, Mr. Ling."
There had been no chance just now, but now he found an opening. Ling Yihong stood up, looked at Tang Ning, bowed slightly and said, "Ling Yihong has met his uncle."
"Uncle Master?"
Wang Bo stood dumbly on the spot, Zhong Mingli looked stunned, and everyone including the envoys from Chu State looked shocked.
Although Fang Hong knew that Divine Doctor Sun once said that Tang Ning was his junior brother, it was still hard for him to believe that the imperial physician Cheng Ling Yihong called him his junior brother in public.
Not to mention the identity gap between the two, just the age gap is really too big.
Tang Ning had seen Ling Yihong a long time ago. The reason why she didn't say hello was because she was afraid that he would show something strange. I have to say that this nephew really respected his teacher...
Tangning sighed and said, "You're welcome, sit down."
Seeing that Ling Yihong had really sat down, Zhong Mingli glanced at Tang Ning. Even the imperial doctor Cheng was his nephew. I really didn't know what else he was hiding from him besides his abilities.
Seeing that Wang Bo and others were still looking at him, Tang Ning explained, "Master Ling's master and I have some connections."
Wang Bo looked at the two of them, still a little hard to accept.
Who is Ling Yihong's master? He is the famous Doctor Sun, a descendant of Medicine King Sun Simiao. The Sun family has inherited it for so long and has already become the backbone of medicine.
Divine Doctor Sun has disciples all over the world, including countless famous doctors, and there are several who work in Tai Hospital. Tang Ning suddenly became the uncle of these people, and there was a huge power behind him, but he was still like this
young...
Everyone at the table looked at him strangely. Tangning couldn't bear it. She felt that the food in her mouth had no taste, so she found an excuse to leave the table and returned to her seat.
Fang Xiaopang sat in her seat with a sad and desperate look. She couldn't take a bite anymore and could only watch others eating.
Tangning couldn't bear to see her like this, so she patted her shoulder and said, "How about you close your eyes?"
Fang Xiaopang obediently closed his eyes.
Xu Qingyang picked up the chopsticks and put them down again. After repeating this process several times, he finally couldn't help but look at Tang Ning and asked, "Brother Tang is really Master Ling's uncle?"
As Xu Qingyang opened his mouth, everyone looked over.
The two tables were adjacent to each other, and they heard the conversation between Tangning and the officials just now very clearly.
Tangning shook her head and said, "It's a long story. In short, it's not what you think."
No matter how long his words are, his words at least prove one thing, that is, this matter is true.
Tang Jieyuan was the uncle of Lingzhou imperial physician Cheng Ling Yihong.
This was a bigger shock to them than Tang Ning's Zhongzhou exam.
In order to ensure the fairness of the imperial examination, candidates and examiners must avoid suspicion. If a candidate has a relative or teacher-student relationship with any examiner, he must deliberately avoid it, stagger the exam, or go to other Gongyuan for reference to show fairness.
If the examiner is the candidate's nephew, no one knows whether he needs to be avoided, because such a thing has never happened.
Xu Qingyang felt that his head was a little messed up. This Brother Tang, whom they had just met not long ago, always gave them different shocks.
There are no secrets at the Luming Banquet. Whether it was the confrontation with the Chu envoy just now or the conversation at the front table, no matter what happened, it will be passed down by word of mouth until it reaches the ears of every candidate.
Tang Jieyuan single-handedly defeated the envoys of Chu State and saved the face of Lingzhou students and Chen State.
No matter how much they hated him before, they still had to accept his request.
No one would have the thought of comparing with him. He is destined to be different, whether it is knowledge or conduct, making people respect, hate, and fear.
There is another surprising thing. The imperial doctor Cheng Ling Yihong is actually his nephew. This seems incredible to them. The other way around is a normal thing, it just happened.
Tang Jieyuan, who became famous from the first game of the state examination and then got out of control, created miracles again and again, and changed their perception of him again and again.
This time the deer roaring banquet was not what Tang Ning had thought before.
Although Lingzhou's disciples were not very enthusiastic towards him, their attitude was not that bad either. In other words, this was not a Hongmen Banquet.
The following banquet went without any twists and turns. The Luming Banquet was completed according to the procedures. Fang Hong took Fang Xiaopang back. Tangning said goodbye to Xu Qingyang and others and went back with his father-in-law.
Along the way, it was natural to explain Ling Yihong's affairs.
Still following the old rules, when encountering something that cannot be explained, just put all the responsibilities on that snowy winter.
late at night.
In Lingzhou Posthouse, several envoys from Chu State have just returned from the Luming Banquet.
After the middle-aged envoy stepped into a certain courtyard, he let out a long sigh and said, "What a pity..."
Master Xiao Li looked at him and asked, "What's the pity?"
"As early as when reviewing the examination papers in the third session of the state examination, Zhang Hao, a doctor in the Ministry of Water Resources, accidentally revealed that Tang Jieyuan's water control strategy could save Chen Guo at least five hundred thousand taels of silver." The middle-aged envoy shook his head.
He shook his head and said with great regret: "It's a pity that our people can't see the examination paper. If it weren't for the serious floods and heavy expenditures every year, the national strength of Chu State would have already surpassed that of Chen State. This examination paper, for us,
Worth far more than a million dollars in silver!”
Master Xiao Li thought for a moment, raised his head, with a smile on his face, and said: "It doesn't matter, let's stay in Lingzhou for a little longer this time, the future will be long..."
