The Ming Dynasty's Spokesperson

With so many people present, it was of course impossible for them all to sit in the Chinese army tent. Even in the literary world, there was a clear hierarchy.

There are roughly several categories of people who are qualified to sit inside: people with national prestige, people with cross-regional prestige, people with provincial prestige, local special guests, people who directly serve national figures, or people sent to Representatives coming.

Of course, this big tent is not perfectly seamless. Except for the curtain wall on one side, the other three sides have wide openings, allowing people outside to vaguely see what is going on inside.

According to the usual procedure, the leader of the alliance, Wang Lao, must have made a eloquent opening statement, and then come up with a poem topic for the outsiders to join in the fun, and then the big guys here will discuss the matter.

But everyone knows that there is a "change of leadership" today, and it will definitely be difficult for the old leader Wang to no longer come up with poetry topics or fully preside over the topic as leader. These tasks should be left to the new leader.

Therefore, the old leader Wang, who was already very emotional and too lazy to speak, sat on his seat and remained completely silent, making the atmosphere in the tent very dull.

Others can sit and watch the conference and turn it into a joke, but Lin Tailai cannot.

So he took the initiative to speak, and said to everyone in the audience seriously: "Today's literary world is in a stage of change, so this literary conference should play a role in connecting the past and the future!"

Everyone listened solemnly and thought to themselves, doesn't this mean "the leader of the alliance should be changed"?

Others are just trying to figure it out, but you, Lin Tailai, didn't even think about it, and the dagger was already showing.

Later, Lin Daguan fully expressed his respect for the old comrade and said to the old leader Wang: "As leaders in the literary world, we have a heavy responsibility on our shoulders and play a greater role than before. Does Danzhou agree? "

But no one here can tell what Lin Tailai is implying?

Alliance leader Wang Lao replied feebly: "But I am old and lack of energy, so I can no longer take on the important task of leading the alliance's literary world."

Lin Tailai then responded: "Recently I heard rumors that Duke Yanzhou intends to abdicate?"

Everyone was helpless to complain. Wasn't it Lin Tailai who spread this rumor yourself?

Alliance leader Wang showed his old-timer demeanor and answered: "As the saying goes, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and a new generation replaces the old. It is time for me to abdicate in favor of talents."

Lin Daguan immediately praised him greatly and said: "The Duke of Yanzhou is really open-minded and upright!

But I think that there is no need for the Duke of Yanzhou to be like this. The literary world cannot do without the Duke of Yanzhou! I sincerely advise Duke Yanzhou to please continue to be the leader of the literary world! "

Everyone can just listen to Lin Tailai's words to persuade the old leader to stay in office.

They are all engaged in literature, and everyone is proficient in allusions. Who doesn't know the meaning of "three words and three concessions"?

Before the other seniors said anything, you, Lin Tailai, rushed to start "making three concessions and three concessions". Did you already regard yourself as the default successor?

Leader Wang probably felt that it was really disgusting to talk to Lin Tailai in such a hypocritical and pretentious way.

So I didn’t pretend anymore, I couldn’t bear it anymore and said straight away: “I have made up my mind to retreat to Linquan from now on and no longer interfere in the affairs of the literary world!

At the same time, I propose that Sun Jigao and Sun Zhuangyuan of Wuxi should be the next leader of the literary world! "

Lin Tailai stood up as if he was very surprised and blurted out: "Isn't this bad? He hasn't achieved much in the literary world."

At this time, Shen Li, the former minister of the Ministry of Rites, who was also present, said: "Sun Botan's writing is concise and concise, his words are simple but his meaning is profound, and he has the style of Bai Letian.

In addition, Zeng Wenkui was well-known throughout the world and highly respected. He was still young and powerful and could be the leader of the alliance. "

Official Lin did not directly argue with Shen Li, but immediately said: "It can be put into public discussion. I wonder what the gentlemen here think of Sun Jigao?"

Shen Mingchen, an old celebrity, was the first to speak: "We are waiting for the Zhejiang scholars to oppose Sun Jigao. Wang Danzhou, you should nominate someone else."

Leader Wang was very surprised. He looked around the tent and asked disdainfully: "Where is Tu Long? When did you, Shen Mingchen, dare to represent the entire Zhejiang literary world?"

Shen Mingchen replied: "Brother Tu has voluntarily withdrawn from the literary conference and returned to Ningbo."

Everyone: ""

Can quietly "exiting" without saying hello to anyone really be proactive?

Zhang Fengyi glanced at Wang Zhideng and said: "Sun Jigao has no literary reputation in Jiangnan. Our Suzhou literary circle is against Sun Jigao."

Zhao Yongxian, the left minister of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites and a native of Changshu, said angrily: "The literary scene in your city cannot represent the whole of Suzhou! I agree with Sun Jigao taking over as the leader of the literary circle!"

But Yuan Hongdao said loudly: "We, the Hubei Public Security Faction, also oppose Sun Jigao!"

Under Lin Tailai's death gaze, Gong Nai, the representative of Shandong literary circles, reluctantly said: "I object!"

Many people who were still watching were shocked when they heard this voice that represented the literary world in the important town of Shandong!

Gong Nai has been living in Gusuyi with Shen Li, Zhao Yongxian and Wang Lao, but now he is siding with Lin Tailai. Is this man a crackpot?

Representatives from relatively peripheral literary circles such as Songjiang Prefecture and Yangzhou Prefecture also spoke out against Sun Jigao.

Zhu Shikong, a disciple of Hubei tycoon Wu Guolun, said weakly: "Young man, I only follow the lead of the Danzhou stallion."

Wang Daoguan, the younger brother of Huizhou faction tycoon Wang Daokun, watched with cold eyes and remained silent.

If possible, Wang Daoguan would like to nominate his brother Wang Daokun, but unfortunately, he cannot defeat either of the current hostile parties.

Representatives from many other places also chose to continue to wait and see, looking at the two sides that were in serious opposition. Because their own strength is limited, they cannot afford to offend anyone.

After everything that needed to be said was said and the tent was temporarily quiet, Lin Tailai laughed proudly and said:

"It is very obvious that there are still many voices opposing Sun Jigao as a candidate!

Shandong, Zhejiang, half of Jiangnan, half of Hubei, and Jiangbei all clearly opposed it, and only half of Jiangnan, half of Hubei, and Henan supported it."

Just talking about the region is enough, and there is no need to mention the identities of the former Minister of Rites, the current Minister of Criminal Affairs in Nanjing, and the current Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites in Nanjing!

How can the affairs of the literary world be measured by official positions? There is no need to mention the positions here!

At this moment, a sudden noise came from the direction of the gate, which aroused the vigilance of Mr. Lin.

Because there was no such thing in his original plan, it meant that an accident had occurred.

Then he heard someone outside shouting: "Mr. Nanyue of Wuchang and Mr. Taihan of Xin'an are here!"

Anyone who knows a little about the history of the literary world knows that these two names refer to the two giants Wu Guolun and Wang Daokun, who can be called the three giants of the world together with the old leader Wang!

It was indeed beyond the expectations of Mr. Lin. The two had originally only sent their disciple Zhu Shikong and his brother Wang Daoguan to attend the literary conference, and had not expressed their intention to be there in person, but they suddenly showed up today!

Without thinking, Lin Tailai also understood that this was probably a trick by the old leader Wang!

Use this kind of sudden attack to catch him off guard!

As the two giants Wu Guolun and Wang Daokun entered the big tent, everyone gave way and the seats were adjusted again.

After Wu Guolun sat down, he asked, "I haven't asked about literary affairs for a long time, so I am a little unfamiliar with them. What were we talking about just now?"

The disciple Zhu Shikong, who had arrived earlier, had already stood up and stood behind him. He quickly replied, "Mr. Yanzhou proposed that Wuxi's Sun Zhuangyuan be the next leader of the literary world, and there are many opponents."

Wu Guolun said loudly, "The people of the retro school are not dead yet!

I represent the literary world of Hunan, Hunan, Sichuan, Yunyang, Lujiang, Anqing, and Jiujiang, and support any decision made by brother Wang Yanzhou!"

A giant is a giant. He is powerful as soon as he makes a move. He does not need to be flexible and directly includes the representatives of the central and western regions.

Wang Daoguan, who had arrived earlier, walked to his brother Wang Daokun and whispered a few words.

After listening to it, Wang Daokun sighed secretly. It seems that he will never have the chance to be the leader of the literary world in this life.

Not to mention the old leader Wang, who has three pounds of nails on a rotten boat, even Lin Tailai, who has only risen for a few years, can attract more support than himself. What can he use to compete?

"We, the Xin'an School, the Baiyu Society, and the Jiangyou Literary Circle of the Hui people also support Wang Yanzhou!" Wang Daokun said publicly on behalf of his sphere of influence with reluctance.

The excitement in the big tent was so overwhelming that the situation reversed in the blink of an eye!

The voices against Sun Jigao just now seemed to be very powerful, but the joining of the two giants seemed to have directly changed the balance of power!

It is said that after the Yangzhou Literary Conference two years ago, Wang Daokun had clearly broken up with the old leader Wang, and Wu Guolun also retired in despair.

As a result, the two of them, who were in their twilight years, had to drive hundreds and thousands of miles this time, desperately jumping out to strongly support the old leader Wang, and even playing a sneak attack trick at the expense of the giants' faces.

It must be said that the charm of Mr. Lin is really outstanding.

Even though Mr. Lin already controls the two important cities of Shandong and Zhejiang, he cannot match the combined efforts of the old three giants.

Shen Li smiled and asked Lin Tailai: "Whose voice is louder now?"

Under the powerful counterattack from the opposite side, those who opposed Sun Jigao did not dare to speak, and all looked at Lin Tailai, the leader.

Lin Tailai's eyes slowly swept over the old leader Wang, Wu Guolun, Wang Daokun, Shen Li, Zhao Yongxian and others in turn.

He said as if complaining: "A group of old seniors with an average age of more than 60 years old do not have literary virtues, come to deceive and sneak attack me, a young man of 22 years old, is this good? This is not good, very bad."

When everyone thought that Mr. Lin had no idea what to do, he suddenly turned his head and shouted to Gao Changjiang standing behind him: "Let him in!"

Everyone was very curious, who is this "he"? Is there anyone who can turn the tide?

Could it be that this "he" refers to hundreds of elite soldiers holding sharp blades?

Soon, a middle-aged man with a baby face strode into the tent.

"Feng Shike? How dare he?" Old Alliance Leader Wang showed a puzzled look on his face. What's the point of this person appearing here?

An undercover was exposed and expelled. This is a very shameful thing. He should have kept it hidden. Why did he dare to show up in such a swagger?
