After a group of handsome young men from Donglin entered, they saluted Zhao Nanxing, Gao Panlong, Tang Xianzu and others.

Everyone is familiar with it, and I haven't seen it for many years, so I have something to say.

The people here came almost the same, and the last one was Zou Yuanbiao.

Everyone was not in a hurry, and no one dared to blame Zou Yuanbiao for coming too slowly, because Zou Yuanbiao was the leader of Donglin like Gu Xiancheng and Zhao Nanxing, and was known as the "Three Lords" in the world.

If Gu Xiancheng had not been sick after returning to Wuxi from Tongzhou, he would have been on the Tengwang Pavilion by the Ganjiang River for a while, and the three kings would have gathered again since Jinling for 21 years ago.

This is a grand event since the founding of Donglin.

Therefore, Zhao Nanxing felt a little regretful.

Gao Panlong just now told him that Gu Xiancheng's health was getting worse and worse, especially after Li Sancai was demoted, he was even more worried about illness, but he didn't know if he could hold on.

"Berchin, sit here."

Gao Panlong is considered to be half of Gu Dazhang's teacher. When Gu Dazhang went to Beijing for the examination, he studied at Donglin Academy for half a year. In the past six months, the most professors were Gao Panlong.

"Mr. Jing Yi!"

Gu Dazhang saluted Gao Panlong before he sat down. After he sat down, Gao Panlong asked, "Boqin, I heard that you are planning to run a branch in Changzhou. How is the progress?"

"I've already seen it. All the prefectures and counties support me and promise to allocate funds. In addition, the gentry of Changzhou is also generous. I will take the lead in getting things done as soon as the money arrives."

Gu Dazhang is proud of his establishment of Donglin Branch in Changzhou. He has been a professor in Changzhou for two years and has not done anything else. He has only been working hard to call on Donglin Branch. Now it can be implemented, and he is naturally happy.

"After the branch is completed, we must ask Dajun and Mr. Jing Yi to support us." Gu Dazhang took the opportunity to say.

"That's natural." Gao Panlong laughed, "How can you not praise your affairs in the party? If you do your business well, Yu Dajun and Yu Dajun will have face... However, the Dajun is in poor health now and may not be able to travel far this year."

When Gu Dazhang heard this, he couldn't help but feel nervous and hurriedly asked Mr. Donglin how he was in good health.

Gao Panlong said briefly, and Gu Dazhang sighed after hearing this: "The Lord is old after all, and now the court is not calm for our party. I am afraid that the Lord is too depressed."

Gao Panlong nodded slightly after hearing this. The teacher's condition was indeed related to the demotion of Sancai Gong.

Although the teacher was mentally prepared for the Sancai Gong to enter the cabinet, he took the initiative to write letters to persuade the Sancai Gong to withdraw, and asked Mr. Nangao to go north to persuade him. But in the end, no one expected that the emperor would demote the Sancai Gong to a commoner. This hit the teacher a lot. After this blow, it would be difficult for the Sancai Gong to have a chance to rise again.

Just as he was about to ask about the preparation progress of the branch, Mr. Nangao Zou Yuanbiao finally arrived.

Everyone stood up to greet him, and Zhao Nanxing was in front.

Zou Yuanbiao nodded to everyone, smiling, especially when he saw Gu Dazhang and other young and handsome men. After greeting each other, he pulled Zhao Nanxing to the window, sat on the chair, and said angrily: "Qihegong, how do you think of Xiuwu being demoted?"

Zhao Nanxing slightly bearded and shook his head and said, "The wood has been completed and cannot be saved."

"I know this, but I'm unwilling to accept it." Zou Yuanbiao sighed, "Xiu I made great contributions to our party, but ended up in this situation. I think when I went north to persuade him that day, if I knew that the emperor was so cruel, I would have to ask Fuqing to do something."

Zou Yuanbiao really regretted that day, he advised Li Sancai to retreat and not to be obsessed with it, so as not to implicate Gu Xiancheng and the whole party. But he really didn't know that the emperor was so arrogant that he demoted Li Sancai to a commoner. After learning the news, he didn't sleep all night.

"It's already like this, so I can only ask Xiuwu to take a closer look. Isn't we gathered here today to save the disadvantage of Xiuwu being demoted?" Zhao Nanxing and Li Sancai didn't have much contact, but they admired this person very much, and couldn't help but sigh, "This vast sea and glorious court cannot tolerate a Xiuwu Duke."

"A gentleman sees the opportunity, and a master knows his fate."

The person who spoke was Miao Changqi who happened to pass here. This sentence was a poem from Wang Bo in "Tengwang Pavilion". It was used in Li Sancai, but it had true knowledge.

Zhao Nanxing looked at Miao Changqi with admiration.

Gao Panlong came over to invite the three of them to take their seats, and said to everyone: "You are here for a long time. Thank you for your hard work. Let's have dinner and listen to music in Tengwang Pavilion on the Ganjiang River. After we have enough energy, we will discuss party affairs together. What about state affairs?"

Of course, everyone said it was OK, and Tang Xianzu smiled and ordered the servant to call the restaurant to hold a banquet.

The banquet was extremely luxurious, all of which were fresh from the river and wild game in the mountains, making everyone smile.

After the dinner, someone asked someone to clean up, and Tang Xianzu ordered the Haiyan Opera Troupe from Zhejiang to sing his proud work "The Peony Pavilion".

This Haiyan Opera Troupe is a famous large troupe in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. She is good at Kunqu opera and is not invited by any noble officials.

Everyone in Donglin sat around the square table, and the curtain slowly opened with the melodious sound of flutes.

"The Peony Pavilion" has been written for two years, and most of them have heard it, but today I was amazed when I heard the Haiyan Opera troupe singing it.

Especially when everyone heard the song "Zao Luo Pao" in the tenth "Shock Dream", everyone was intoxicated.

"It turns out that the colorful purples and reds are blooming everywhere, and it seems that they are all given to the broken wells and dilapidated walls. What are the beautiful scenery of the sky? Whose courtyard is enjoyable? The morning and evening rolls, the clouds and green pavilions; the rain and wind, the smoke and waves painted boats, and the people on the brocade screen are so scary that the spring scenery is…"

When singing this part on stage, Gao Panlong whispered to the side, saying that "Shocking Dream" was the most exciting one in the whole play. The singing style was good and the lyrics were well written. Tang Xianzu, who was sitting next to him, showed his expression. This part was indeed his most proud work in his life.

Zhao Nanxing also listened very well, and he knocked his fingers and said, "This song has a gentle syllable and elegant style, and it is the song of the best."

Miao Changqi said happily: "The lyrics are full of emotions and I feel the fragrance is everywhere."

“…”

Everyone praised each other, and they made Tang Xianzu's old face red.

It’s not shame, but drunkenness.

Zhao Nanxing took advantage of the drunkenness and remembered something, and asked Tang Xianzu with a smile: "Ruoshi, I heard that a young woman in Loujiang had read your "Peony Pavilion" and suddenly fell in love with you. I would like to promise you. Is there any such thing?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Tang Xianzu curiously. You must know that this Ruo Shigong was in his sixties and was loved by a woman. Isn’t it a good thing in the world?

"It's really happening."

Tang Xianzu's tone was sad and sad, "I was very surprised when I knew this. I replied to this woman and asked her to come and I would like to take her as a concubine. Unfortunately, when this woman saw me, the white-haired old man, she left here. I think this beauty doesn't love the old man."

"Since I love you, why do you hate the old and the young?" Gao Panlong suddenly felt disgusted with the woman.

Everyone also felt that the woman was not a person with temperament. Since ancient times, all talented men have been young and handsome.

Love talents, as long as you are, age is a matter of age.

"Don't be bothered, when I look for a young woman in Jiangnan for you, I will definitely ask you to bloom twice in the spring when you are old." Gao Panlong smiled and joked.

Everyone laughed and the atmosphere became lively again.

Gradually, the drama on the stage was over and the building became quiet.

Seeing that it was late at night outside and there was no one outside the building, Tang Xianzu asked the servant to close the door and left and left to serve him.

"After eating, listen to the song, let's talk about the important things."

Gao Panlong invited Zhao Nanxing and Zou Yuanbiao to sit in the middle of the city, while the rest of them sat around him on the left and right sides.

Everyone was also contrary to their previous frivolous appearance, and everyone had heavy appearances.

"At the time before, our party was not going well. First, Li Chengliang from Liaodong was summoned to the capital, and then Xiu Wugong was demoted. The Donglin lost the influence of Liaodong and lost the cabinet successor. In addition, the five traitors of Qi, Chu, Zhejiang, Kun and Xuan slandered our Donglin in various ways, and even attacked our mentor directly. It is reported that these five parties colluded with Jin Zhong, the eunuch temple in the inner court, and formed an alliance to jointly expel our Donglin. The mentor was worried about it and caused illness. He specially asked me to travel around and summon the Tengwang Pavilion for a while, in order to discuss major plans to save our party's losses."

"You are all colleagues in our party. Since we are discussing together, we can talk freely without asking about qualifications or age." Zou Yuanbiao waved.

Zhao Nanxing nodded and said, "This consultation is not only to recover the losses, but also to plan a counterattack. His five traitors have joined forces with me. I must have counterattack methods. Otherwise, I will take a step back and he will make a step forward. The times will change, and it will be even more difficult to make a difference."

………

I'm picking my nose. You guys who have come from nine years of compulsory education have written history for you seriously. They don't like to order. Do you have to force our family to do that inappropriate thing?

What a bunch of gentle scum!
