In a restaurant in the city, a young man was sitting by the window facing the street, holding a wine glass in his hand, looking leisurely at the passers-by on the street.

A tall and straight figure turned around the corner and walked towards the restaurant.A smile appeared on the young man's face, and he looked away.

Not long after, there was a sound outside the door of the private room, and a person opened the door and walked in.

"Young master Fu came to the appointment in his busy schedule, I am really grateful." Ling Ji pushed the door open and came in, smiling and shaking hands.

Fu Jinyu put down the wine glass he hadn't drunk, brushed off his sleeves, and said, "Ling Ji, it's rare for you to invite me out for a drink, so you're going to be polite to me like this?"

Ling Ji went to the table and sat down, picked up the jug and poured himself a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "You're just joking, brother Jinyu, don't mind. I haven't seen you in Fu's house for a long time, brother Jinyu, are you all right?"

Fu Jinyu snorted softly: "Don't come here. If you don't have anything to go to the Three Treasures Hall, tell me, what's the matter with me?"

"I bought you a drink a lot." Ling Ji laughed and said, "How do you become this kind of person in your eyes?"

Fu Jinyu touched his heart and said: "Every time I drink your wine, I can't help being frightened. You should go straight. What news do you want to find out for your Marquis Mansion?"

Ling Ji knew what he wanted, so he didn't make any detours, thought for a while and said in a low voice: "Is the higher up... going to attack?"

Fu Jinyu glanced at him: "Where did you know that?"

Ling Ji said: "I also guessed."

"Good guess." Fu Jinyu nodded concisely.

Ling Ji frowned: "It's just that Lord Hou has been cautious in recent years, and the servants of the mansion are also very strict, but I can't think of any mistakes that can make a big fuss."

Fu Jinyu looked at him with a half-smile and said: "You are really worried about Fangfu. How can I figure out the emperor's holy will without permission. It's useless for you to ask me about it, I don't know."

Ling Ji looked at him, and naturally knew his difficulties, let alone inquire about such things, even if they encountered them, he should stay away.The Fu family are close ministers of the emperor, it doesn't mean that the emperor can tolerate their transgression.

Ling Ji didn't ask any more questions, and just chatted with Fu Jinyu about trivial matters in the world.But Fu Jinyu couldn't help but said: "Ling Ji, don't say I didn't remind you. I know that whether you make friends with Qinggui or take part in the scientific examination, it is to increase the weight of the Houfu. But this matter can't wait It's been so long, and I don't have time to wait for you to be the number one scholar and the first official to mediate slowly. The Fang Mansion was once the head of the twelve aristocratic families. Even though Fang Hou deliberately kept a low profile, the power is still there, which is a serious problem for the confidant of the Holy One. This situation, is it not You alone can turn it around."

Ling Ji fell silent.Fu Jinyu continued: "What are you going to do? If you still insist on taking the helm of this big ship, you can only sink with it in the end. I advise you to get out of your body as soon as possible. You have done your utmost to the Hou family, how much kindness do you have? It's already over."

"It's not about kindness." Ling Ji smiled and said, "It's about conscience." He covered his heart.

There is also the matter of the person he put on the tip of his heart.

Fu Jinyu sighed, shook his head and said, "It's because of this. Although I have seen through that you have a purpose in making friends with me, I still made you my friend."

"I never concealed my purpose." Ling Ji said.

Fu Jinyu thought of the rumors about the "Houfu Eagle Dog" in the capital, and said helplessly: "Yes. It's just who would believe that you are really for the safety of the Houfu."

Ling Ji smiled and said, "I act openly but no one trusts me, and it's not something I can influence."

Just as the two of them were talking, there was a sudden commotion outside the window, and a familiar voice was faintly heard.

Fu Jinyu looked at Ling Ji and said with a smile, "Whatever you say."

More than a month has passed since the farce of that day.Distraught and indecisive about the matter of the Hou's Mansion, Ling Ji has not been back to the Hou's Mansion for a month.Although he promised Fang Yuesheng that day that he would go back when he was on holiday, but... he probably doesn't know when the academy is on holiday, right?

Ling Ji thought, Fu Jinyu had already opened the window, and the two of them looked down together.

Fang Yuesheng was surrounded by children from several aristocratic families, and the group entered the restaurant noisily.

Ling Ji frowned, Fu Jinyu said with a smile: "It's really interesting, you are trying to save the Hou's mansion, but the decent son of the Hou's mansion is eating, drinking and having fun, and hugging with other aristocratic children. I think that Xu Ruxin is not easy, you'd better Let that little prince stay away from him."

Ling Ji smiled bitterly and said, "Of course I know." It's just that Fang Yuesheng was willing to listen to him, but opposed him everywhere, and the more he said things that he didn't allow, the more he would do.

Fang Yuesheng was surrounded by people, and his face was a little impatient. After he sat down, Xu Yuanqing said: "Yuesheng, what is your expression? This is your fault."

"What's wrong with me. I'm here." Fang Yuesheng said displeasedly.

Zhong Tianyao said: "You still dare to say it. We asked you out, and it's fine for you to push back several times. Now that you finally come out, you still have to put on such an unhappy face."

Fang Yuesheng hummed twice.

Of course he is not happy, what is there to be happy about.

He has confirmed one thing this month, Ling Ji is indeed a liar!

I said it well that day, and I will go back home after the holiday.He knew that the academy had a holiday every half a month, but Ling Ji didn't even see a shadow these days!

He thought he had grasped Lingji's weakness, and could finally feel proud, sweeping away the depression he had suppressed for more than ten years, why does he now feel more aggrieved than before?On the contrary, it was the big liar who spoke affectionately, but he didn't go back home when he had time, what was that? !

He actually wanted to get married, and the one who got married was still his eldest maid. Fang Yuesheng felt that he hadn't had as many troubles in the past ten years as this month.

It all started because that bastard Ling Ji said he liked him!It's all Lingji's fault!

The people who came this time were not only their regular friends, but also some young people from other aristocratic families, but everyone was used to being headed by Xu Ruxin and Fang Yuesheng. stand up.

Xu Ruxin sneered and said, "There's nothing difficult about it. Fang Shizi must be worrying about that servant in his family. I said earlier that you shouldn't disturb people's cleanliness, but you just don't listen. Now being I lost face, but I asked for it."

Fang Yuesheng looked at Xu Ruxin and said displeasedly: "Lingji is not a servant of the family."

"Look, when is this time, it has already been defended in public." Xu Ruxin pointed at Fang Yuesheng with a fan, and smiled at everyone.

Xu Yuanqing and Zhong Tianyao originally wanted to bring everyone together to ease their relationship, but now they confronted each other when they first came up, and everyone lost interest in joking and looking at each other, not knowing what to do.
