It is said that Yuanjia's road is narrow, and you always have to pay it back when you come out to hang out. This time, when you hit someone's home court, the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
Fortunately, the corner where Li Yi and Ruyi were located was remote enough and hidden. Cui Yanxin seemed to have been focusing on the King of Shu all the time, and did not see him.
His eyes moved away from Cui Yanxin's body, and suddenly he felt something in his heart, and faintly felt that a gaze fell on him.
Li Yi looked up, and sure enough, at the diagonally opposite front, he saw another familiar face.
If he remembers correctly, that scholar-like young man, named Chen Licheng, is from Chen Guogong's mansion. Just a few days ago, under the plum tree in Hanshan Temple, he confronted him tit for tat. Finally, he was guarded by Li Xuan. Breaking the leg of a servant in the family, speaking of which, he had a lot of conflicts.
It was a mistake to come to the King of Shu's banquet tonight. He only had a few enemies in the capital, so he met almost all of them...
Standing in front of the crowd with a wine glass in hand, the King of Shu said, "Thank you all for giving me face and coming to the banquet at the palace. I will serve the first glass of wine as a respect."
Of course, this sentence is polite. May I ask, among the young heroes in the capital, apart from Li Xuan, who dare not give face to the King of Shu
No one would be willing to offend the future emperor. Due to their status, perhaps their families could not openly have official contacts with the king of Shu, but the relationship between the juniors has always been rather ambiguous. On this point, whether it is Those who are not staunch supporters of the King of Shu generally make the same decisions.
To befriend the king of Shu, there is no right or wrong, and you must leave an extra way for your family.
After the king of Shu drank a glass of wine first, the atmosphere in the venue became lively.
Eating, drinking, and having fun is the main theme of the banquet. Some people take this opportunity to connect with old friends, and some people chat with the King of Shu in a low voice. Their faces are full of spring breeze, their eyes are full of love, and their saliva is flying around. The King of Shu nods repeatedly. —Secretly, I don't know of any improper transactions.
The dancers in the arena have already retreated, leaving a group of big men, whispering and rubbing each other, those who know think it is the banquet of the king of Shu, those who don't know think it is a large gay dating party...
Li Yi is different, although Miss Liu Er is not very happy to talk, and it is impossible to rub her ears together, but she is beautiful, and if she is fine, she will feel better inexplicably, right
Li Yi is in a good mood, but some people are in a bad mood, and Cui Yanxin is one of them.
As a Jinshi of the new department and a child of the Cui family, although he is only a member of the branch lineage, under the influence of the Cui family, if he seeks a better job and has a few more years of qualifications, he will not only have a bright future, but also It's much better than the current situation of being unemployed at home.
Wasn't it just because he belittled an actor with a low status when he was in Prince Ning's mansion, why did he end up like this, a dignified new scholar
Of course Cui Yanxin knew why he ended up in today's end. He didn't dare to hate King Ning, the officials, and of course he didn't dare to hate His Majesty.
I only hate that nasty Anxi county lieutenant, who forced himself to stand out for a lowly actor, which made him lose face that night. Up to now, the hat of "forced to express sorrow for writing new words" is still firmly on his head, becoming a A lifetime of shame.
This revenge is not a gentleman, but it is not now, Cui Yanxin gritted his teeth, what he has to do now is to closely follow His Highness the King of Shu, and try his best to gain His Highness's attention.
When His Highness becomes emperor in the future, he will definitely not treat him badly. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and everyone knows that His Majesty's physical condition will definitely not last another ten years. Get it back a hundred times and a thousand times.
"Hello Mr. Cui!"
Cui Yanxin raised his wine glass and frequently paid respects to the people around him. He was more or less related to the Cui family, and he was also a person close to the King of Shu. For him, it's not entirely useless.
The people in Shu Palace tonight are all real upper-class people in the capital. If he can make friends with one more person, he will have another way out in the future. Cui Yanxin glanced around the hall, and suddenly, his body froze, and his face showed Unbelievable color.
"It's him, how could it be... Impossible, how could he be here!"
Cui Yanxin shook his head violently, expelling that unrealistic thought from his mind.
That hateful guy is Anxi County Captain, he should be in Qing'an Mansion now, how could he appear in the capital, at the King of Shu's banquet, it must be because his hatred for him is too strong, which led to hallucinations.
Cui Yanxin took a sip of wine, and after scanning the crowd again, that hateful face appeared in his sight again.
"puff!"
He sprayed out all the wine that he hadn't had time to swallow.
A person passing by Cui Yanxin was lucky enough to enjoy a wine bath and wiped his face. Before the anger on his face could surface, he saw the person opposite him, who was even angrier than him, striding towards the corner. direction.
"What are you looking at?" No matter how calm she was, she couldn't stand being stared at for such a long time. Liu Ruyi turned her head and gave Li Yi a fierce look, and said.
"Stingy, you won't lose a piece of meat if you look at it more." Li Yi curled his lips. Miss Liu Er always looks cold on weekdays, giving people a mature and cold feeling, but in fact she is only just over ten. At the age of seven, her face is so tender that water can be squeezed out, and it is full of collagen. When you stare at her carefully, you can see the immaturity under the cold appearance.
He was a little curious. It stands to reason that even if two people who grew up in the same environment have different personalities, it would not be so big. They are gentle and gentle like water. How did Miss Liu Er develop such a tigress-like personality? What about
Out of curiosity about this question, I originally wanted to interview her, but after thinking about it carefully, I gave up the idea.
If she knew that she compared her to a tigress, Li Yi couldn't guarantee that he would go back tonight intact.
"How will you be here!"
At this moment, a suppressed angry voice came from the front, and Li Yi turned his head, just in time to see Cui Yanxin who was gnashing his teeth.
It was his own embarrassment that couldn't be avoided, Li Yi looked up at him and asked, "Why can't I be here?"
I was secretly depressed in my heart, the conflict with Cui Yanxin was because the other party bullied his friend in front of him, copying poems and slapping his face was also under his persecution, why did he insist on biting himself
People often say that meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign country should be one of the four great joys in life, so don't ask him to put this matter on the same level as the wedding night in the bridal chamber, but it shouldn't be so unfriendly as soon as we meet, right
Although Cui Yanxin is only a small official in the Shu Palace, who dares to underestimate who the Shu King is and the people around him, maybe in two years he will be a certain official in the court, so his every move Every movement caught the attention of many people present.
The young scholar sitting next to Li Yi was slightly taken aback when he saw this, and then a look of joy appeared on his face, knowing that his chance had come.
He stood up abruptly from his seat, pointed at Li Yi and said, "Yes, people like this who don't respect His Highness the King of Shu are not qualified to sit here at all."
Cui Yanxin looked at him, and the young man immediately spoke, emphasizing, "This lord doesn't know something, just now..."
Li Yi rubbed his brows. For talents, the King of Shu really does not refuse anyone. He said that if he is next to him, if he is a storyteller in Goulan, he will definitely have a better future than reading.
He just quietly watched the young man spit flying all over the place. Cui Yanxin's face was gloomy, and he occasionally glanced at him, his eyes seemed to be breathing fire. Looking over...
