Unexpectedly, this sophomore boy named Wang Dan was actually a member of the Luochuan Wang family, and his status was not low. Although he was not the eldest son, he was also the first son, the younger brother of Wang Yong, the future head of the Wang family.
Of course, he is also Li Xuan's brother-in-law.
Li Xuan's brother-in-law mixed with Qin Yu and the others, which was really surprising, and judging from the state of the two, this brother-in-law seemed not convinced by Li Xuan's brother-in-law.
There are too many people attending the banquet tonight, not only the officials and dignitaries of the capital, but also their descendants. After the court meeting, the officials who came to Beijing from all over the country have not yet left. Naturally, a palace cannot accommodate so many people, more people, It is not eligible to enter the temple.
Including Qin Yu and many dandies in the capital, they can only eat and drink outside the hall.
Even though the Wang family is one of the most powerful families in Jingguo, the two juniors can sit in the hall, but only in a remote corner, and a little later, they will sit outside the hall.
Li Xuan's seat is naturally in the front. Although Li Yi does not need to go to court on weekdays, his official position cannot be measured by common sense.
At this time, there was no one in the frontmost seat, and the dance in the center of the hall was extremely beautiful, and everyone laughed and talked while enjoying it. There were not many days where people could relax like this throughout the year.
Somewhere in the hall, a young man named Wang Dan pouted with an arrogant expression on his face.
"Are you unconvinced?" Wang Yong looked at his younger brother and asked.
"Huh!" Wang Dan snorted coldly, clearly writing these three words on his face.
Wang Yong tapped him on the head, and said: "Even my father, Li Xianbo, attaches great importance to him. What do you know at such a young age?"
"He's a bad guy!" Wang Dan glanced at a certain direction in the hall and said coldly.
"Bad guy?" The smile on Wang Yong's face restrained, and he said word by word: "Wang Dan, do you know who you are?"
Never seen such an expression from his eldest brother, Wang Dan's body trembled and his face turned pale.
Wang Yong looked at him, and said seriously: "What happened just now, tell me in detail, don't hide anything!"
Wang Dan shivered, and said, "Yes, it's Brother Qin and the others..."
…
After a while, after listening to his story, Wang Yong looked at him with an unconcealable disappointment on his face, and said, "Father and I have high hopes for you, but I didn't expect you to be so shocked by such a clumsy method." Dizzy, you've let me down so much!"
"Brother, Brother Qin, they..." Just as Wang Dan spoke, Wang Yong waved his hand and said, "Don't say that they have ulterior motives, they are really upright, and they are also from the lineage of the King of Shu. Standing on the opposite side, as the son of the Wang family, can't you even think of these things?"
Wang Dan curled his lips and said, "The king of Shu can't compare to him, why did my father..."
"shut up!"
Wang Yong's voice became cold and severe, and even a few eyes looked around him, Wang Dan immediately retracted his neck and stopped making a sound.
"His Royal Highness and Li Xianbo are the leaders of the younger generation. They have already become famous in the capital at a young age. What qualifications do you have to say such words? Not to mention the Academy and the Academy of Sciences..."
…
Hearing the elder brother tell the story of Li Yi and Li Xuan, after a short while, Wang Dan showed a look of shock on his face, and glanced in a certain direction again. Is the unreasonable person who came here really so powerful
"So what, after a few years, I will be stronger than them..." Wang Dan curled his lips and said, but his tone softened.
"Let's not talk about it in a few years..." Wang Yong looked at him, "What you have to worry about is half a month later."
"Why?" Wang Dan turned his head and asked suspiciously.
"The family used a lot of resources to allow you to enter the School of Mathematical Sciences without taking an exam." Wang Yong looked at him and said, "After half a month, it will be the day of admission to the School of Mathematical Sciences, and the supervisor of the School of Mathematical Sciences is the one you just now Said 'that guy'."
The expression on Wang Dan's face froze, he rubbed his numb shoulders, and glanced in a certain direction in the hall, his heart fell into the bottomless abyss...
…
…
"This, this, must be in this."
"No, there was nothing under this bowl just now!"
"Mister, do you know magic, like Monkey King?"
…
The singing and dancing in the hall was peaceful, but there were screams and cheers from a certain small area in front of it from time to time.
Tsundere Lolita brought a few younger siblings over, and was surprised by Li Yi's close-up magic tricks.
It’s nothing more than putting beans under the bowl for them to guess, using some tricks to transfer beans or creating something out of nothing to conjure beans in an empty bowl. This kind of little magic with no technical difficulty can also deceive children. When performing in front of the young lady, they all ended in failure.
The little princes and princesses are "massive". Although they cannot be said to be the focus of the entire hall, there are still many people who have been paying attention to this side.
"Okay, okay, it's not the same today, let's all go play." It's always a bit strange to be watched by so many people, Li Yi waved his hand, put away the bowl, saw that there was no magic spell, everyone The princes dispersed, only Tsundere Lolita and Yongning stayed here.
"Why don't you start yet?" Li Yi turned his head and looked at Li Xuan. It's really boring to sit here. In comparison, the capital city outside must be more lively.
Tsundere Lolita interjected: "Father is not feeling well, and is now resting in the back hall."
Li Yi sighed. He originally planned to go out to watch the Lantern Festival with Ruyi after the end here. The Lantern Festival on the Lantern Festival is far from what it was before. If you miss it, you will have to wait until next year.
I don't know if the Queen's side is over, or you can sneak away in advance. There are so many people, one or two, no one will notice.
Thinking in this way, a strange young man walked over from the opposite side, cupped his hands at Li Xuan, and said, "Long time no see."
Li Xuan was startled, and then replied: "His Royal Highness, long time no see."
Tsundere Lolita looked at the young man and asked in surprise, "Is it Brother Qi Wang?"
The young man smiled and said: "I haven't seen you for a few years, Shouning has grown so tall..."
His Royal Highness King Qi said a few words to Tsundere Lolita, his eyes fell on Li Yi, and he asked, "Is this Li Yi, County Uncle Li?"
Li Yi stood up, cupped his hands and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness King Qi."
"Uncle Li is too polite." King Qi smiled and said: "Although this king is not in the capital, I have heard about Uncle Li. Uncle Li is worthy of being the leader of the younger generation in Jingguo and the pillar of the country. ..., this king wanted to get acquainted early in the morning, but I just got to meet today."
The same is the prince, looking at this King Qi, he likes to tell the truth. He doesn't know how many streets the hypocritical guy of the King of Shu has. Li Yi said with a smile: "Where is it, Your Highness is absurd..."
King Qi poured a glass of wine, cupped his hands and said: "Uncle Li has made many contributions to Jing Guo. This king admires him in his heart. This glass of wine is toast to Uncle Li!"
After Li Yi was stunned, he could only raise his wine glass.
Even if King Qi is not favored, he is still a real prince. Since he walked over, many people have looked at him.
This time the King of Shu lost his power and was sent away from the capital by His Majesty, and he was unable to return to the court. If it is said that the ones who benefited the most were naturally the other adult princes.
As for the many adult princes, His Royal Highness King Qi, in terms of status and background, is one of the more respected ones.
King Qi made such a move under the watchful eyes of everyone on such occasions, is there any other meaning
Could it be that he is trying to win over Li County Uncle Li, who has a strong family, and intends to get his hands on the position of the East Palace
Up to now, no one in civil and military affairs in the Manchu Dynasty dared to underestimate this young county magistrate.
But all the officials of the King of Shu's family were immediately alerted.
King Qi said a few words, and after toasting a glass of wine, he sat back in his original seat, but Li Yi knew in his heart that he didn't just want to express his endless admiration for him like a river...
Of course, admiration is a must. In addition to admiration, there must be a way to win him over and help him fight for the throne...
"King Qi wants to win you over." Li Xuan said with a frown.
Li Yi cast a glance at him, even a fool could see King Qi's thoughts.
"Why does he want to win you over?" A puzzled expression appeared on Li Xuan's face, "Except for the School of Computing, you have no real power in the court, and secondly, you have no influence, and the value you can use is not great. Why would he want to win you over?" Want to win over a worthless person?"
"Worthless people..."
Li Yi smiled and poured a cup of tea, and took a sip.
For some reason, this smile seemed to Li Xuan to shudder. In the brightly lit hall, there seemed to be a dark wind blowing from a corner.
