Anyone with some social experience knows that this kind of thing cannot be completely banned except in a very few special historical periods.
Hai Rui must know it in his heart, but all he wants is to have a clear conscience and do his best.
He appointed Lin Tailai probably because Lin Tailai was not quite a scholar yet. His social circle among scholars was very small and there were few human factors involved.
Although several Wuxi scholars were severely punished before, everyone believed that this was because the Wuxi people had offended Lin Tailai.
Therefore, there have always been people who are lucky and can't help but be tempted to break the ban secretly.
Under normal circumstances, Lin Tailai collects clues to collect clues, but it doesn't mean he has to take action if he gets them.
Intentionally or unintentionally, he turned the "anti-pornography" campaign into a vigorous "enlightenment" campaign, using as few hands as possible.
But after Lin Tailai saw the two familiar names of Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru in the online newspaper today, he had some thoughts.
Lin Tailai's trouble now is that he doesn't know the enemy's situation, which makes him feel a little unsure.
He did not believe that the old leader Wang Shizhen really had such good intentions to promote "Jin Yuefu" at literary conferences.
The reason is very simple. If Alliance Leader Wang is really willing to make a name for himself, why hasn't he come to contact him now?
So after Lin Daguan saw the names of Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru, he wondered if he could get information from these two people?
These two people are currently included in the door of the retro school. They are rising stars and are known as the three heroes of the clouds together with Tang Wenxian.
Last time at the Qiuzhiyuan Gathering in Suzhou, they represented the retro faction and fought against themselves, which shows their status in the retro faction.
Now Mr. Feng Er is the right-hand man of Mr. Wang and the backbone of the retro faction.
Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru are both the younger brothers of Mr. Feng, so they will know some news about the sect's movements.
Looking at the location, the two heroes who committed the crime went to the home of Yin Qing, one of the Twelve Beauties of Jinling.
Lin Tailai murmured again: "The name Yin Qing seems a bit familiar, too?"
Protector Zuo Zhang Wen reminded: "It's the beauty who was almost weighed and taxed by you after I went to Suzhou last time!"
Weighing beauties and collecting taxes? Mo Xiren, a pimp on the Qinhuai River, heard this for the first time and was so scared that he wiped his sweat.
What kind of existence is this high-ranking official like a powerful dragon across the river in Suzhou city?
Even an ordinary bully would be unable to do such things as using clever names to collect taxes.
As soon as he thought of it, Lin Daguan immediately summoned ten sergeants and accompanied him, and quietly set out after dark.
After passing two alleys, we arrived at the door of Yin Qing's house. We saw that the door was tightly closed and there were no obvious signs.
Another ladder was brought in, and Lin Tailai climbed up the wall himself and looked inside a few times.
Except for the side room where the servants and maids lived, the front and back halls were too dark to look like anyone was there.
"Can't? Is the information wrong?" Lin Tailai muttered a few times, then climbed over the wall and jumped directly into the yard.
The thugs on duty in the front yard were immediately alerted, and several people immediately emerged and surrounded Lin Tailai.
Lin Tailai shouted calmly: "I am Lin Tailai, a student from Suzhou! Come for inspection!"
In the shadow of the famous tree, the thugs immediately stood still. They all knew that even if they were beaten, the injuries would be less severe than fighting.
"Open the door!" Lin Tailai ordered, then turned around and walked inside, passing through the empty front hall.
When we arrived at the backyard, the main room was still dark and there seemed to be no one.
And at this time, it is impossible for people in the entertainment industry to sleep!
Is there really no one there? Lin Tailai walked to the window in confusion, and after listening, there was indeed no sound.
Then he took the Iron Finger Tiger and suddenly punched the window with all his strength.
There was a loud "bang", a big hole was made in the window, and then a ray of light came out.
Lin Tailai suddenly realized, no wonder there seemed to be no one in the dark!
It turns out that thick curtains were hung inside, completely covering the windows, and no light could be seen outside!
Lin Tailai shouted: "Inspection! Come out!"
I saw the door of the house opened from the inside, and a young and beautiful woman rushed out, it was Yin Qing, one of the Twelve Hairpins.
Then she shouted to Lin Tailai: "You bastard named Lin! There is no such thing as you!
It's not enough to be in Suzhou, and they come to Nanjing to bully me, and the slave family will no longer survive!"
Yin Qing was scolding and frantically rushed forward to fight, but Lin Tailai pulled Yin Qing aside with one hand.
"Go away! It's none of your business!" Lin Daguan shouted again, and then he looked into the room.
Then Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru appeared together, stood at the door and shouted to Lin Tailai:
"I didn't do anything! I just drank and listened to music! Yoon Ji is good at acting, let's watch her new play!"
Lin Tailai waved his hand and ordered: "According to Haizhong Cheng's ban, just entering the door is a violation of the ban! Take Dong and Chen Ersheng back for questioning!"
The names of those Wuxi scholars are still posted at several bridgehead intersections on both sides of the Qinhuai River.
Dong Qichang was so anxious that he jumped to his feet and shouted: "Lin Tailai! Even if you have some humanity, you can't do such a thing!"
He really couldn't understand why Lin Tailai had to come to them when so many people were secretly violating the ban.
The last time they met in Suzhou, they didn't offend Lin Tailai.
Moreover, during the competition at the Literary Forum, they all lost to Lin Tailai in the three-hero battle with Jinbu, giving Lin Tailai his reputation.
Speaking more carefully, Lin Tailai should thank them!
What's more, Dong Qichang also knew in his heart that the relationship between Feng Shike, a senior fellow countryman, and Lin Tailai was also unclear.
Therefore, as long as Lin Tailai has some humanity, he should not come to trouble them!
Lin Tailai sighed: "I just took him back for questioning. Why was the reaction so intense?"
Dong Qichang didn't believe a word he said. How could there be such a coincidence? Why don't you, Lin Tailai, look for someone else, just look for yourself?
At this time, a voice suddenly came from the room again, "Lin Tailai! I advise you to be kind to others and don't act like a villain!"
Following the sound, Mr. Feng Shike and Mr. Feng also appeared at the door, looking at Lin Tailai righteously.
Lin Tailai subconsciously exclaimed: "There are actually bigger fish, ah no, Master Feng, you are actually here?"
Then he added: "How come the second master didn't say anything when he came? Why use Dong and Chen to hide it from others!"
Feng Shike asked, "Are you going to take me away with you now?"
"That's impossible!" Lin Tailai said firmly: "How could I possibly check you, Second Master!"
Feng Shike was slightly moved in his heart. It seemed that Lin Tailai still missed his old love.
Lin Tailai said again: "Haizhong Cheng's ban only targets officials and scholars, and Second Master, you have already become an official. Now you are neither an official nor a scholar. The ban cannot control you, so you can do whatever you want!"
Feng Shike: "."
Lin Tailai pointed at Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru enthusiastically and said: "Second Master, if you have anything to do, go ahead and get busy. I'll treat you to a drink when I get the chance! I'll only talk to them two today!"
"Ah, this" Feng Shike immediately fell into an awkward situation. The eldest brother couldn't leave his two younger brothers and run away, right?
After struggling for a while, he said, "Why don't you just ask them here?"
Lin Tailai nodded: "I will definitely give the second master's face. But please, second master, please stand outside the courtyard and I will question them alone."
Feng Shike thought about it and agreed, and went to the front yard to wait. This would not be regarded as abandoning his little brother.
Lin Tailai cleared away the others, then looked at Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru, and asked: "What exactly is the charter of the old leader's literary conference?"
Dong Qichang replied: "It is expected that there will be three elegant gatherings, and the first one will be held on the night of August 15th, the day after the provincial examination ends.
The next day, August 17th, the second show will be in the Imperial College. The next day, August 19th, the third show will be in the East Garden."
Lin Tailai said dissatisfied: "That's it? I can find out this kind of information just by asking any scholar on the street!"
Dong Qichang asked: "Then what else do you want to know?"
Lin Tailai made it clear: "What I want to hear is, what kind of secret arrangements does Mr. Wang have that no one outside knows about?"
Dong Qichang replied: "How can we know what the old alliance leader thinks?"
"Impossible! Leader Wang now relies heavily on Mr. Feng, and he needs Mr. Feng to run every literary conference.
And you two are close fellow villagers of Mr. Feng Er, so you will hear some rumors at least, so you can't be completely unaware of it!"
