After some small talk, Fu Xiuyuan brought up the topic of the spring examination. In November, the scholars from Jiangnan will come to the capital to prepare for the exam. He plans to host a literary gathering, both as a reunion and to exchange some ideas about the spring examination.
"Will you two esteemed brothers also come to support?" Fu Xiuyuan smiled at Song Lingsu and the others.
Song Lingsu and Song Lingjie exchanged a look, then said, "Brother Xiuyuan, we will attend the literary gathering, but as for next year's spring examination, we won't be participating."
"Not participating?" Fu Xiuyuan was a bit surprised; he thought they would take advantage of the opportunity.
Neither Grandmaster Fu nor Song Zhiyuan said anything, just watching the younger ones.
