Rong Zhiyu's skinny body stood proudly in the middle of the hall, exuding an awe-inspiring aura!
Everyone was silent for a moment, then suddenly shouted in unison, "The number one poet! The number one poet! Ancient Ling Jin! Young Master Ling Tian! "Almost a thousand people shouted in unison, like a landslide and a tsunami! After a long time.
Ling Tian was shocked and hurriedly walked out, bowing deeply to Rong Zhiyu and said, "Sir, you think too highly of Ling Tian. At such a young age, how could I dare to take such a high position? Please reconsider, sir. This is really too much for Ling Tian. "
Rong Zhiyu laughed and said, "There is no seniority in learning, only those who have reached the top. Prince Ling, there is no need to be so modest. Young Master's talent is exceptional, and his poetry is shocking. Everyone here has seen it for themselves! The number one poet is fully deserving! Thousands of scholars shouted in unison, showing their sincerity. It is useless for Young Master to decline. "
Ling Tian laughed bitterly. He did not expect that after showing off today, he would become the number one poet in the world! He could not help but sigh in his heart. Li Bai is indeed Li Bai! I picked out a random poem and the reaction was so enthusiastic. If I recited all of Li Bai's poems, wouldn't I immediately become a god in the world of poetry?!
Once Ling Tian's poem was out, no one dared to come up and embarrass themselves! The first day of the scholarly meet ended prematurely! Although it was sloppy, everyone was in high spirits. They were excited and felt that the trip was not in vain. No one would have thought that the number one poet in the world, XiMen Qing, would be defeated so miserably on the first day! And Ling Tian's sudden appearance shocked everyone from head to toe! They all decided that they would come early the next day, as there would be more exciting scenes waiting for them.
Ling Jian and the rest of the six of them were extremely bored and told Ling Tian that they would not be coming over for the next few days. This was exactly what Ling Tian wanted and he immediately agreed.
Seeing that everyone had left, Ling Tian and the others clustered around Meng Lige and Qin Da to hold a banquet in the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion. Of course, Gu XiYan was afraid that she would not be able to serve them well. She quickly served them good food and wine.
Today, Ling Tian was in the limelight. Of course, Qin Da was the happiest. The old man's eyes had already narrowed into slits, and even his steps were light as a feather. He felt that even if he were to die today, he would have no regrets.
Meng Lige and Qin Da saw that only Ling Tian and Yu BingYan were present at the table. There was clearly one person missing. It was the peerless beauty, Ling Chen. The two of them were secretly puzzled. Where did that girl go at this moment? However, as a senior, how could they ask their disciple's female companion? They could only keep their questions to themselves.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, everyone started to talk. To Ling Tian's surprise, Meng Lige was actually well-versed in astronomy, geography, and all sorts of subjects. He had a deep understanding and unique understanding of everything. Ling Tian's interest was piqued, and he tried to ask a few more obscure questions. Meng Lige's answers were actually close to the mark. Although most of it was just his own conjectures, but Ling Tian was already impressed, and had a whole new level of respect for him.
No wonder everyone said that this person was a wise man. He really lived up to his reputation! Just this knowledge alone was enough to make others have a whole new level of respect for him. He was actually not below the green robed fortune teller, Ye QingChen. Compared to Qin Da, he might even be slightly better.
The topic changed to the various great families. Qin Da was the first to raise a question. "Tian 'er, since when did you have such good relations with people? I'm not surprised that Tamago's Third Brother spoke up for you. Even the Dongfang Family wanted to be on good terms with you. That's also within reason. But since when did the Nangong family also speak up for you? This is the question that this old man is most puzzled about. "
Ling Tian smiled and told them about his alliance with the Nangong family. When they heard that Nangong Tianlong, the current Family Head of one of the Eight Great Families, was actually defeated by Ling Tian, everyone could not help but burst out laughing.
Meng Lige had been secretly observing Ling Tian and the others, and could not help but be secretly amazed! He had never seen such a harmonious relationship between superior and subordinate. This Ling Tian was really an anomaly. Qin Da looked at Ling Tian's expression. How was this the expression of a teacher looking at his student? It was obvious that he was treating him as his closest nephew. His face was full of love and gratification. His expression was also relaxed, without the slightest bit of restraint or reverence towards the future Family Head.
This kind of master-subordinate relationship was something that Meng Lige had yearned for for a long time. But with Wei Chengping, no matter what, such a scene would never appear! When the two of them were compared, it was obvious that the difference between them was obvious. Ling Tian was trying to subdue his heart, while Wei Chengping was trying to subdue his strength! Although the results were similar, the process was like the difference between heaven and earth! The former was like the spring wind and rain, silently moisturizing everything, causing people to unknowingly accept it. The latter was swift and decisive, and needed to see results in the shortest time possible. Although the former seemed to take a long time to subdue his heart, the results were permanent. As for the latter, if he subdued his strength for a short period of time, or if both the guest and the host were happy, there was a danger of relapse. Wasn't this the case for Meng Lige and Wei Chengping?
Thinking of this, Meng Lige looked at Ling Tian with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Ling Tian suddenly asked Meng Lige with a serious expression, "Mr. Meng, you must have understood your situation during this period of time. Let's not beat around the bush in front of a straightforward person. Ling Tian is really worried about your safety, so I boldly speak my mind. Please don't take offense!"
Meng Lige faintly guessed what he was going to say. He smiled and said, "Prince Ling, please speak your mind."
Ling Tian said, "With your great talent, you are under Wei Chengping's command. Logically speaking, with your foresight, this kind of thing shouldn't have happened. Ling Tian can't understand this matter. Can you enlighten me?"
Meng Lige smiled bitterly and said, "Prince Ling, you may not know, but my sect owed a favor to the Northern Wei's royal family many years ago. Right after I finished my training, the Northern Wei's royal family came to my master and asked him to send a disciple that he was proud of to assist the Northern Wei. Originally, Li Ge's talent was shallow, so I couldn't take on such an important task. However, at that time, I was the only one in front of my master."
He shook his head, raised his wine cup, and drank it in one gulp. He continued, "Our sect has always valued promises. My master didn't want to give me face, but he also didn't want to ruin my future, so he asked Li Ge to make the decision himself. My master's kindness is very deep. As his disciple, how can I not share the sect's burdens? "
Qin Da stood up solemnly and actually bowed to Meng Lige. Meng Lige hurriedly got up to avoid it, but Qin Da held him down. "Shidi cannot avoid it. Shidi should accept this bow. This is the Foolish Elder Brother's sincerity to thank Worthy Younger Brother for sacrificing himself for the Sect. I am ashamed of this matter. "He couldn't help but sigh. Tears streamed down his face.
Meng Lige sighed and said, "Li Ge has received great kindness from the sect. How can I not repay it? Senior's words make me blush with shame. " He paused and sighed again. "When I first arrived in the Northern Wei, I saw that although Crown Prince Chengping is narrow-minded, he still has some means of doing things. He is ruthless and decisive, an ambitious and ruthless talent! I thought that if he could treat me well and sincerely listen to my teachings, then I would really stay in the Northern Wei. It wouldn't be a big deal. Who would have thought that this person … "As he spoke, he shook his head and laughed in a carefree manner," But this is also good. It has allowed this little brother to gain a great advantage. I no longer need to be involved in those hypocritical political whirlpools. It is really worth it. "
Ling Tian nodded and began to think. Meng Lige's last sentence was obviously meant for him. He was hinting that if he wanted to recruit him, then it would be best not to. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Sir is straightforward. How can I force Ling Tian? Although Ling Tian doesn't have much ability, I still have some tolerance. Naturally, I wouldn't dare to force you. When the storm dies down, you can come and go as you please. However, Mister, please remember that the doors of the Ling Residence will always be open for Mister. Even if you can't stay here for a long time, it is still good for you to stay here for a short while whenever Mister is tired. Even if the Ling Residence isn't reliable, it will still be able to shelter Mister from the wind and rain.
Meng Lige clasped his fist and said, "Thank you, Young Master!"
Ling Tian smiled and raised his cup. "It's fate that we met. I wonder if Sir can discuss the world's situation for me? Just treat it as a topic for conversation. Ling Tian is all ears. "
Meng Lige shook his head and laughed. "Prince Ling is really good at scheming!" He frowned and pondered for a while. Suddenly, he raised his head and looked at Ling Tian. He said seriously, "Before that, I would like to ask Young Master a question. Please answer me."
Ling Tian said seriously, "Sir, feel free to ask. If Ling Tian can answer, I will tell you everything I know!"
Meng Lige stared at Ling Tian. He actually had an awe-inspiring aura. "May I ask, Young Master, what is the world's common people in your heart?"
"The world's common people?" Ling Tian laughed. "Sir, what the common people are depends on the person's status. Different statuses have different positions in their hearts. Don't you think so? Mister, do you think that Ling Tian will tell you everything he knows at this moment?! "
Meng Lige frowned and said, "Please enlighten me, Young Master."
Ling Tian twirled the wine cup in his hand and chuckled. "If Sir has a question, of course I will answer it. In the eyes of Ling Tian now, the world's common people are ants!"
Everyone's expression suddenly changed! Who would have thought that Ling Tian would actually say such despicable words! Mister Qin furrowed his brows tightly, his face filled with displeasure.
Meng Lige seemed to understand something. He asked tentatively, "Young Master, you seem to want to continue? How can you say that you will tell me everything you know? "
Ling Tian chuckled and said solemnly, "That's right! If I am an ordinary person now, then the world's common people are my flesh and blood, my brothers and legs. But I am now the descendant of a powerful family. If there are no other changes, how are the common people different from ants in my heart? This was the truth, and he was really telling the truth without hiding anything from anyone! Do you not believe me? "
