For the three great scholars, Lu Chen did not pay much attention. Whether their fame was undeserved or truly deserved, he didn't care; he only favored Min Feng in the elegant seat.
It was not only because Min Feng was renowned among scholars, but also because Min Feng had become a disciple of Xia Qing.
The reason Lu Chen suggested this was partly for entertainment and partly to give Min Feng and Fu Yanshan some face.
No one opposed Lu Chen's proposal; everyone applauded and cheered.
Gu Chengyu glanced coldly at those around him, realizing that at this moment, in Tianxiang Pavilion, Lu Chen's family background was the highest. Those of higher status probably wouldn't regard this kind of night banquet. After all, Tianxiang Pavilion was a brothel, and those nobles wouldn't easily visit.
Hua Lian felt very anxious. Although she had confidence in Mr. Gu, with so many scholars, winning first place would not be easy, would it? She thought she was truly foolish.
