Chapter 53
Knowing that Qin Yi is just a student of the Policy Academy, everyone curled their lips slightly, a little contemptuously.

The people attending this time are either people from extraordinary family backgrounds, or talented people with outstanding literary talents. Qin Yi is a child from a poor family and has no literary talents. Why are you here?
It's fine if you come, just sit at the end of the hall and watch the elegant demeanor of many scholars, why dare to provoke Xuan Lingyao?

With this in mind, everyone looked at Qin Yi with hostility.

Qin Yi didn't care at all, while lightly tasting the fine wine, he communicated softly with Xuan Lingyao, feeling very happy.

The people who participated in the banquet were almost here, so Shi Xinji and Meng Wenlun tied for the honor.

After looking around, Shi Xinji said with a smile, "This banquet is a welcome banquet for Brother Meng. I thank Brother Meng for condescending to come to the humble house, and I also thank everyone for participating. Come, let's give a toast to this current literary star!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Meng Wenlun and raised his wine glass with a smile.

Meng Wenlun smiled slightly and raised his wine glass.

Many young masters in brocade also raised their glasses and drank together.

Putting down the wine glass, Shi Xinji smiled and said to open the table, then a dozen maids and servants filed in, carrying plates of wine and vegetables, and placed them on everyone's table in turn.

The order is from the top of the hall to the end of the hall, so after a while, the servants brought food to Qin Yi and Xuan Lingyao.

Qin Yi looked down and saw a plate of steamed mutton, a plate of broiled fish, a plate of deer meat cakes, and several dishes of seasonal side dishes.

He was not surprised by this.

In this dynasty, it was illegal to eat beef.Therefore, mutton meat is more popular. In addition to mutton, some powerful families also have some game, such as roe deer, venison and so on.

Amidst the laughter, everyone began to eat, while Shi Xinji slowly patrolled to see if there was any poor hospitality.

Suddenly, he saw that the side seat was vacant, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

That position was specially reserved for Xuan Lingyao, and it was very close to him, but now the beauty is not there, where did she go?
In order to invite Xuan Lingyao, he spent a lot of effort and recruited many people to help him, so he invited this beautiful woman who fascinated him to the hall and got in touch with him.

Just now we had a few conversations, he was planning to take advantage of the banquet to continue the conversation, how could this be the case.

He was about to call the servant to ask questions, when he saw the end of the hall, his eyes shrank!
The person he was thinking of was actually sitting there, and there was a man beside him!
Who is this person?

He has some impressions, but he can't remember them for a while, obviously he is an ordinary person, not worth remembering, so he is secretly displeased.

Xuan Lingyao actually abandoned herself to sit with this person. Could it be that she is no match for this guy?

Squinting his eyes slightly, holding back his displeasure, Shi Xinji had an idea.

He clapped his hands, and a group of well-dressed women walked in, holding various musical instruments such as pipa and erhu.

Immediately afterwards, a group of coolly dressed women filed in, and began to dance amidst the slowly sounding music.

Driven by musicians and dancers, the atmosphere in the hall became more and more lively.

Many princes in brocade clothes ate, watched the performance, and communicated with each other, and the hall was full of laughter.

Qin Yi glanced at the performance and lost interest.

Regardless of their looks or dancing skills, these women are much worse than Nian Xinya.

Qin Yi had admired Hua Kui's moving dance, so naturally he didn't like these.

When everyone had finished eating, Shi Xinji clapped his hands again, the music stopped, the dancing stopped, and the musicians and dancers got up one after another and left the lobby.

"Brother Meng's deeds must be known to everyone. A famous poem moved the capital and made Zhanjing Xuan paper expensive. Such a great talent is a model of literati. Let's toast again!" Shi Xinji said loudly.

Everyone praised him together, and respectfully offered another glass to Meng Wenlun.

Putting down his wine glass, Shi Xinji smiled, "It's rare to invite Brother Meng. This banquet, how can we not recite poems and fight against each other. Why don't we play a flying flower order to compare who is more knowledgeable and talented, and invite Brother Meng to act as the banquet, how about it?" "

Everyone cheered and cheered, and agreed again and again.

It can be said to be a great opportunity to be taught by the current Wenqu star.

Meng Wenlun smiled and nodded, and had no objection.

Shi Xinji smiled lightly, glanced across the crowd, and suddenly stopped on Qin Yi, "This brother looks at the face, in order to have a good time later, can you introduce it to everyone?"

Qin Yi narrowed his eyes slightly after hearing this.

He didn't forget that Shao Guangyuan introduced himself just now.

In addition, it is impossible for Shi Xinji to know all the people in the room, but he singled out himself, obviously with ulterior motives.

Before Qin Yi could answer, Shao Guangyuan, who was sitting not far from Shi Xinji, raised his voice and said, "This is my friend, his name is Qin Yi, a student of Ce Yuan."

Some people who didn't know Qin Yi whispered to each other when they heard the word Ceyuan.

The literati still look down on each other, let alone the outside world, they always look down on strategists and soldiers, and are even a little hostile.

Therefore, there was a bit of contempt in the words, "A mere strategist has the face to participate in this banquet."

"Opening and closing your mouth is full of tricks, such utilitarianism, and being in the same room with this person is really a shame!"

Seeing everyone being so taunted, Shi Xinji felt relieved, and said instead, "Although the Feihua Order is simple, it is difficult to deal with if you have little talent and learning. If anyone doesn't want to participate, you can put the wine glass on the left side of the table."

Hearing this, several people placed their wine glasses on the left side, indicating that they would not participate.

Of course, almost all the people present were scribes. If they quit, wouldn't it be an admission that they were ignorant?
So there are not many people who quit.

Qin Yi flashed out of the corner of his eye, and saw Xuan Lingyao put the wine glass on the left.

He is not surprised.

Xuan Lingyao has always kept a low profile, and as a strategist, she is not good at such games.

He didn't have much interest in this flying flower order, so he stretched out his hand to hold the wine glass, and was about to move it to the left, but he didn't know that a soft female voice came from beside his ear, "Are you not going to dampen the arrogance of these people?"

Turning to look at Xuan Lingyao, Qin Yi smiled and said, "Why, you don't like them?"

Xuan Lingyao didn't quite understand what Qin Yi said, but she roughly understood what it meant. She pursed her red lips and nodded her head lightly.

The contempt and disdain of all the countermeasures naturally made her unhappy.

That being the case, let's save face for the strategist... Qin Yi smiled and let go of his hand.

Looking up, seeing that Qin Yi did not move the wine glass to the left, Shi Xinji snorted and said, "Brother Qin, do you want to participate in this flying flower order?"

Shicai was just suspicious, but now Qin Yi can be sure that this guy is targeting him.

He responded lightly, "Somewhat interested."

Everyone sneered, and there was a joke in their eyes, waiting to see the joke later.

They believed that when the game started, Qin Yi, who had no self-knowledge, would be the first to be out.

At that time, this person must be full of embarrassment!
