Chen Jiru, who was talented since childhood, but loved to hold on to his thighs, Dong Qichang, who was both outstanding in calligraphy and painting, and his thick thighs, Yanei Wang Heng, all of these three were outstanding talents.

If it were ordinary scholars of the same age who had to be restrained when they met these three people, they would be restrained, but for Lin Yanchao, the three of them were just juniors in the literary world.

Lin Yanchao didn't speak from beginning to end, but just stood quietly behind Yuan Hongdao, showing his demeanor.

When Yuan Hongdao and Wang Heng met, Dong Qichang saw Lin Yan's extraordinary temperament and smiled and said to Yuan Hong: "Brother Zhonglang, it is not an extraordinary person to make friends. Can this brother introduce me to me?"

Lin Yanchao was about to speak, Yuan Hongdao smiled and said, "This is naturally. My friend is Zhusheng, whose surname is Lin, whose courtesy name is Zonghai, and who is a marquis of Fujian."

All students are students.

Lin Yanchao was slightly surprised. Didn’t he tell Yuan Hongdao that he was a lost scholar? Instead, he gilded his face and said that he was a student.

Seeing that Yuan Hongdao had winked at him, Lin Yanchao had to make a decision and salute to the three of them: "I heard for a long time that a famous scholar in Wuzhong is lucky to meet him, and lucky to meet him."

Lin Yanchao just bowed lightly. With his current status, he wanted the three to pay tribute to him first. But at this moment, except for Chen Jiru, all the three of them were juren. Lin Yanchao could only pay tribute to them first, but he had no intention of being at a disadvantage.

Wang Heng took a look and nodded, saying that he had agreed. He was arrogant. In his opinion, Lin Yanchao was just an ordinary student. Even if he didn't give a polite manner, it was nothing and was not worth worrying about.

Chen Jiru was extremely talented and was not only appreciated by Wang Xijue and Wang Shizhen, but also highly valued him as Xu Jie, but he failed in the imperial examination, so he was considered a scholar who failed in the imperial examination.

Chen Jiru was humble and casual, and also smiled and bowed: "Happy, Lucky, Chen Jiru, my friends all called me Meigong. He did not seek progress in studying, but only liked to travel around the mountains and rivers, planted bamboo and raised flowers, burned incense and played the piano, enjoyed the moon and dripped books, and was lazy and idle."

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "It is exactly what I want, is it that I am not idle, I am not idle."

When Chen Jiru heard Lin Yanchao's words, his eyes lit up and said with a smile: "My friend Lin is a talented person, this sentence is really in line with my wishes."

Lin Yanchao and Chen Jiru both laughed.

Dong Qichang smiled and said, "It seems that this friend Lin is a good friend who can be said to Mei Gong."

Wang Heng also nodded.

Everyone laughed and sat down in the cabin. Several people gathered around the table to talk. Among them were Hua Chuanfang and several other scholars. After everyone was summoned, they opened up the conversation.

Hua Chuanfang is versatile and chatted with everyone for a few words, and they had a great time talking.

Hua Chuanfang looked at Lin Yanchao and asked, "Friend Lin, are you a student of the Fujian Marquis?"

Lin Yanchao did not mean to look down on businessmen at all, so despite being a businessman, Hua Chuanfang did not neglect the etiquette and said with a smile: "Yes."

Hua Chuanfang said to everyone: "I know that the top scholar in the current academic year comes from Hou Guan, Lin's friend, whose surname is Lin, and Taifu is the same as the top scholar. It's really a coincidence."

Lin Yanchao said barely: "I'm benefiting from it."

Everyone laughed.

A scholar asked again: "My friend Lin, since he is a marquis, has he ever seen the top scholar?"

Everyone looked at Lin Yanchao. Lin Yanchao couldn't answer and hesitated: "It seems that he had seen it."

Everyone heard this and said, "I have seen it, I have seen it, I have never seen it, I have never seen it, what does it mean to have seen it."

Another person said: "Lin Sanyuan is Wenkui today. If I were in Fujian, if I could meet and listen to a few words of teachings, I would probably benefit for life."

Everyone nodded and said yes, with a look of admiration in their words and expressions.

However, Hua Chuanfang was a meticulous person. When he saw Lin Yanchao stammering, he asked with a slight gaze: "I wonder if my friend Lin is in the county school or the government school?"

Lin Yanchao glanced at Yuan Hongdao angrily.

Yuan Hongdao also showed an awkward look. There were students in the pleasure boats. Even though Hua Chuanfang did not pass the exam, he had a rich father who donated a prison student to him, so he could be on par with everyone.

Scholars all have circles. Just as students will not be with Tong Sheng, at such a banquet, students will not be with Tong Sheng.

However, Yuan Hongdao also felt that Lin Yanchao was outstanding in his words, so he wanted to introduce him to everyone, and he also hoped that he could make a name for himself here and would be of great benefit in the future. Yuan Hongdao had good intentions, and Lin Yanchao could not bear to let down his friends, so he could only continue to lie with him.

Lin Yanchao said in a different way: "What is the difference between county schools and government schools? After entering the school, he asked the teacher to go out for a study trip."

At that time, the temple studies were abandoned, and after the students gained fame, they were not limited by their hometowns, so it was common sense to go out to study.

Hua Chuanfang suddenly said, "It turns out that friend Lin is a student in Houguan County."

It makes sense for Hua Chuanfang to infer this. The official school of the prefecture is called a professor, the official school of the prefecture is called a Xuezheng, and the official school of the county is called a teaching officer. Lin Yanchao thought that Hua Chuanfang’s inference is also correct. Of course, he was indeed from Houguan County School, but he has been graduating for many years.

Hua Chuanfang asked: "Can friend Lin know Zhou Moru, a student of Houguan County?"

This is not good.

Lin Yanchao looked at Yuan Hongdao again, but saw that he was ashamed and embarrassed, so he hurriedly stepped forward to relieve Lin Yanchao and said, "My friend Lin said that he went out to study after entering school. He definitely didn't know the friends in the county school."

But Hua Chuanfang smiled slightly and asked Lin Yanchao: "Oh, is this true for my friend Lin?"

Lin Yanchao said: "Yes."

Yuan Hongdao was relieved when he heard this.

Hua Chuanfang laughed and said, "That's a coincidence. Zhou Moru also happened to be on the boat today. I'll introduce you to get to know each other well!"

After hearing what Hua Chuanfang said, Yuan Hongdao almost choked to death.

Hua Chuanfang asked the servant to give instructions, and soon a soldier in his thirties in a silly shirt walked into the cabin.

This is true that Mo Ru was a Hou Guan. After the hopelessness of his career, he wandered around. Later, he met Hua Chuanfang, who was very rich in his family. Zhou Moru wanted to curry favor with him and defected to Hua Chuanfang's mansion to be a guest of Qing. However, Hua Chuanfang looked down on Zhou Moru and just treated him as an ordinary tutor.

This time, Hua Chuanfang, as the financial supporter of the Chuangchuan Cultural Association, also came to the boat to fight.

After hearing the news that Hua Fang invited Zhou Moru into the cabin, Zhou Moru was a bit frightened when such famous scholars gathered together.

But I saw Hua Chuanfang and Zhou Morudao: "Mr. Zhou, I will introduce you to the fellow villager, this friend Lin from Houguan County School."

After saying that, Hua Chuanfang pointed at Lin Yanchao.

When he heard that the county schoolmate was on the same boat, Zhou Moru said happily: "It turns out that he met an old friend in a foreign land, and I am also a Houguan County School."

But after Zhou Moru finished speaking, he looked at Lin Yanchao carefully and said in confusion: "But this friend Lin is very handsome, why haven't I seen you before?"

For Lin Yanchao at this moment, this was very embarrassing.

Hua Chuanfang snorted lightly, as if I had known the truth long ago. (To be continued.)8
