The next day, the students gathered together.

The lecture was held in Mengfu Villa.

This courtyard covers a large area and has been obviously renovated. The courtyard is empty, with rows of tables and chairs placed. You can still see traces of rockery and stone platforms after they have been eradicated.

There is no doubt that the Meng Mansion has really made a big fuss for this lecture, and it has cost a lot of money.

Qiu Yan's seat is located at the innermost part of the courtyard, located on the steps, covered by eaves. From this location, you can see the entire courtyard.

Early in the morning, the servants of the Meng Mansion were busy, and the arrival of a famous student made the villa full of popularity and thoughts.

However, Wen Si's beating was not about thinking about articles and classics, but about news related to Qiu Yan.

Unlike other great scholars, Qiu Yan's birth was quite legendary. As his reputation became more and more popular, more and more things were done, and news about him gradually spread.

This change in reputation directly affects others' views on him.

At first, he became a little famous in Qingchang County because of the disaster relief and the fact that Ma Yang gave him some advice. Qiu Yan during this period had not had a good reputation for his academic reputation. When others mentioned him, they always had other things.

Immediately afterwards, he was invited to Wuxin City. After all, he finally showed his strength after the literary storm, comparing the famous talent Fang Ziyan and Gu Yanzhi of Jiannan. He even had a conflict with the famous swamp prince Ge Luolan in the city, but he did not suffer any losses. This incident made Qi Xin and others, descendants of the generals in the city, become interested in him. This was the beginning of their connections.

After this stage, Qiu Yan's literary name rose. However, it is limited to a certain range. However, it is worth mentioning that the poem "Praise the Farmers" at the literary meeting made him gradually famous among the farmers, and his conflicts with the swampers were also related to the military. The poems copied at the literary meeting also made his reputation for calligraphy spread.

At this time, Qiu Yan was just a talented man with potential. He could be amazing and cared about, but he would not be taken seriously. He was mostly a topic of conversation after dinner.

This situation changed only after the provincial examination. His hand-in-hand strategy not only pushed himself to the position of understanding the Yuan Dynasty, but also made his reputation reach Tianting. There were many aftermaths, and he really entered the house. However, this reputation was only limited to Jiannan. Even if someone talked about it, most of them were from Jiannan. After this range, almost no one knew it.

If you want to spread your name, you need to ride the wind. If the momentum is not enough, you need to settle it with time.

However, Qiu Yan opened up his momentum with his own hands.

Going north to the Eastern Capital, Wenxuan Pavilion wrote and read the books and reading the forest, and nine paintings of ancient paintings undoubtedly pushed their reputation to a higher level. As long as he was given a certain amount of time, his reputation would be spread with the crowd. With time, it might not be without the momentum of Shucheng He, Qi Jiulian and others.

However, before things could ferment further, Qiu Yan went west to the capital and used the imperial examination to accumulate fame greatly. From then on, the capital was famous and had the title of Wenkui. The subsequent palace examination and the Jiuyun of the Tao raised his reputation to a peak. If it weren't for the shallow foundation and not very old, the title of great scholar and master would have been called out long ago.

Of course, in the eyes of many people, it was just a matter of time before the name was called out. At most, it took more than ten years or as short as a few years. Qiu Yan would definitely be the master. After all, it was no secret that he was considering order at that time.

However, those who were optimistic about Qiu Yan did not expect that after only half a year, Qiu Yan relied on his actions on the grassland to greatly shorten the time for his confirmation.

Now, when talking about Qiu Yan, a strange situation will immediately arise, that is, many people have different impressions of Qiu Yan in their minds, and they also have many opinions on his achievements.

The reason is that Qiu Yan's reputation, status, and popularity have improved too quickly—

I thought he was a master of calligraphy and painting, but it was later reported that he had a lot of research on ancient times;

Today I thought Qiu Yan was just a very knowledgeable person, but I only realized tomorrow that he had won the top scorer;

When I first heard this name, I only knew that he was very loyal to the Holy Lord, and was in charge of the Military Pavilion. After a while, I saw his name again. It was in the battle report, and it was accompanied by a great victory!

...

All these are enough to show how fast and fierce his rise was, and how he was attracted by the world for a while, and many other deeds were slowly discovered.

However, people either believe in everything that is well-known to everyone or doubt it. In order to show their own thoughts, the many students gathered here today will inevitably have the intention of not following the crowd. When talking, they chose not what Qiu Yan knew about the world, but small and trivial matters. On the one hand, they showed their broad knowledge, but on the other hand, they wanted to infer Qiu Yan's personality from these details.

Moreover, among the students who gathered here, not only were the participants from yesterday's dinner, but also many poor students who were not qualified to attend the banquet. They were different from the students from scholarly families and wealthy families. They were unwilling to miss any opportunity and came early, first recited through the morning light, and then studied the knowledge that Qiu Yan might have taught with others, and talked about Qiu Yan's past.

"I have heard people mention that Qiu Xiu's knowledge is reflected in the word "knowledge and action". Some of his experiences have been circulated in Dongdu. They were summed up by Confucian scholars who asked him in the past and were of great value."

"I also heard of it a little, and asked someone to copy the article he had on the table in Wenxuan Building, Dongdu. It was exquisite and thought-provoking."

"This is also an opportunity. Rumors say that Qiu Xiu was not only a master of military strategists, but also a unique Confucian scholar. He once praised two Chens, gathered the Ma Prime Minister, and the two Chens' theory was great. He was unique and showed signs of establishing a school of doctrines. If we can seize the opportunity and understand one or two in advance, we might also take advantage of the situation!"

"This kind of thing is hard to come by, but it will be a try after all."

"Speaking of this, do you think that today's lectures and compilation will really bring out the essence of the theories and let us comprehend it? If he wants to develop the theories, will it not only those close to people and introductory disciples be able to learn the truth?"

As he was talking, the topic fell on speculation about how much Qiu Yan could teach. When the matter came to an end, no one didn't care about this issue.

"I heard that when the editor was young, he depended on his parents for his life. His family was poor. He dug a wall to borrow light every day and studied hard. He was also a poor person. He must know that it is difficult for us to learn and will not cherish it." The person who said this was a poor student.

However, a young man dressed in luxury smiled and said, "This may not be necessary. From the way of being an official, you can see the difference between the top and the poor. Officials from aristocratic families have a deep foundation and will not be easily tempted by money and have made many achievements. However, those poor officials have been poor since childhood and have succeeded in their careers, and immediately seize every opportunity to make money..."

Before this person could finish his words, he was interrupted-

"What does this mean? Could it be a sarcasm?" The person who interrupted him was a handsome young man wearing a white-haired Confucian uniform and was carelessly cared for, giving people a refreshing feeling.

"It turned out to be Zhang Shun," the young man in the Chinese clothing looked in the voice and smiled. "Don't put a hat on me. I'm just talking about the matter. It's not an allusion to the editor. I just want to remind you not to have unrealistic fantasies. How much people can get is already destined when they are born."

As soon as these words were said, many poor students were angry, and some people said, "Hu Ye, don't be arrogant, and you also talk about your background with shamelessness. Which one in Daizhou City doesn't know what your ancestors are doing? Starting from a wealthy country and doing business without money. If it weren't for the time being, how could you turn around? Now you look down on me and innocent people?"

"A innocent family?" Hu Ye, a young man in the Chinese clothing, sneered, "Is it a poor family? So what if I am just obedient? Can I compare to my waiting? Say my ancestors do business without foundation? So what? That is also a courageous one. Seizing the opportunity, it shows that the ability is based on the foundation that I have made. We are proud of our descendants! If you want to blame, you can only blame your ancestors, without such vision and courage!"

"Shadowless!"

After saying this, all kinds of disdain sounded immediately in the crowd. Many people were ashamed to be with Hu Ye and others, but there were also students from wealthy families. Although they did not agree with Hu Ye's words, they were unwilling to be confused with poor families, and their value was reduced in vain.

As a result, the atmosphere in the courtyard gradually became solemn and tense.

However, there are some people who can calm down, including the servant who packed the dishes at the Meng family dinner yesterday.

The servant stayed alone in a corner, with a slightly tired expression, his eyes were covered with blood, there were still a few ink marks on his face, sweat was flowing on his forehead, and he was breathing gently. He had just arrived.

Unlike others, the servant was focused at this time, with his eyes always staring at the innermost seat, waiting for Qiu Yan to arrive.

Finally, after seeing Qiu An coming to clean up first, the servant had a sudden thought, calmed down his thoughts, and waited intently.

"It's coming."

Sure enough, after a few breaths, Qiu Yan walked out of the backyard and came to the yard, accompanied by Meng Bufan.

As soon as everyone in the courtyard saw this scene, they immediately stopped talking and focused their attention. However, the solemn atmosphere could not be dispersed for a while.

Meng Bufan also noticed the difference in the atmosphere. He lived in the city for a long time and was a descendant of aristocratic families. He knew the opposition between classes and did not say it out loud. He just said to Qiu Yan: "When composers lecture, you don't have to worry about that. It is a blessing for these people to listen to some of them."

After hearing this, Qiu Yan ignored it and glanced at the students in the hospital. The purpose was to see the Wensi Qi pillars with different thicknesses, colors, and heights that were faintly revealed above everyone's heads.

"This lecture can be the official beginning of the humanistic shrine..."

Thinking of this, he walked towards the seat on the steps.
