This is Gu Xichao!

Yan Jingbai was a little emotional, ignoring a lot of introductions about the other party ringing in his head, he flicked the dust that didn't exist in the book, and asked knowingly: "Is this written by the young master?"

Gu Xichao raised her eyebrows, but she didn't intend to answer at all.

Yan Jingbai didn't care about his rude attitude, but Fu Quan'er on the side scolded displeasedly: "You are so rude, what status is my son, it is your honor to ask you, what is your attitude?" ?!"

Yan Jingbai frowned, shut up, and then smiled apologetically at the other party, "Your servant is rude, don't take it to heart, my lord."

What a joke, with Gu Xichao's proud and sensitive personality, what if Fu Quan'er ran away in anger, or his impression of himself as the future master was greatly reduced?Where can he find another Gu Xichao?

Perhaps because of his sincere attitude, Gu Xichao nodded slightly to him, then knelt down to pick up the books on the floor.

Yan Jingbai ignored Fuquan'er's hand intending to stop him, and bent down to help him pick it up together. Finally, he patted the dark blue book cover, handed the booklet in his hand to the other side and said, "Young master, although I just scanned a little bit, but I can also see that this book is a masterpiece of military art, and the name of the young master will surely go down in history in the future!"

Gu Xichao's eyes lit up, and then quickly dimmed again. The corners of his lips curled up into a mocking smile: "What a great art of war, it's just a pile of waste paper that no one reads!" He continued with a cold snort: " It’s even more a joke to be famous in history, this person is humble, and he can’t afford food and clothing, so why talk about other things!”

"Young master's words are wrong!" Yan Jingbai said seriously: "How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan, and the talent of the young master will surely soar to the sky one day, making everyone look at him with admiration!"

Hearing this, even Gu Xichao, who is as calm and restrained as he is, can't help being slightly moved.

Yan Jingbai smiled slightly, and invited: "Meeting is worse than meeting by chance. I hit it off with you young master. Would you be honored to invite young master to have a drink?"

Gu Xichao paused for a moment, and finally said: "I'll stick to my wish, I dare not ask for it!"

The two smiled at each other.

Yan Jingbai didn't invite him to any high-end restaurant, not even the most common one, but randomly picked a roadside wine shop and sat down.

Waved Fu Quan'er to sit down at another table, Yan Jingbai personally filled the wine jug for the two of them, the porcelain collided lightly, Yan Jingbai took a sip, his fair face was already stained with a touch of red.

He chuckled and said: "Most people in the world love good wine and fine wine, and always think that the more expensive the better, I don't know if I'm familiar with it. The knives that cost two cents a bowl are not much different from the good flower carvings upstairs in Fugui. Stronger, more mellow, and more stamina."

Gu Xichao's movements of drinking are very delicate and elegant, every move can be pictured.He squinted his eyes, and replied after hearing the words: "Of course, things that can be seen everywhere are not unusual. People only covet things that they can't get."

Yan Jingbai chuckled, and changed the subject: "We're all sitting together drinking, but I don't know your son's name yet! Xia Baijing, what's your surname?"

The person sitting opposite him put down the wine bowl in his hand, cupped his hands and said, "My surname is Gu, Gu Xichao."

"Gu Xichao, that's a good name." Yan Jingbai rubbed his chin and smiled, "Xichao looks two years younger than me, and I'm entrusted by my brother, how about calling you a good brother?"

Gu Xichao was a little surprised, then nodded and called out: "Brother Bai."

The first step hooked up successfully!

Yan Jingbai refilled his wine again, and said with a smile: "The day of the imperial examination is just around the corner. Brother Gu Xian doesn't look like a local, he should be a scholar who came to take the exam." After a pause, he sighed again, "Brother, your talent is unmatched. If you participate in this imperial examination, the others will probably be overshadowed."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Xichao's mood that had just recovered fell to the bottom again, he forced a smile and said: "Brother Bai has won the prize, but I can't take the imperial examination."

Yan Jingbai frowned, "What do you mean by that?"

At first, Gu Xichao didn't want to say that he was not used to confide in others, but seeing the other person's worried face, and thinking of his appreciation for Qilue, his heart that had been ridiculed by others gradually warmed up.So, he didn't hide any more, and simply told the story that he had been expelled from the exam because of his background.

Yan Jingbai's brows were tightly frowned, and as soon as Gu Xichao finished speaking, he slapped the table and shouted coldly: "Ridiculous!"

Gu Xichao looked at him in astonishment.

He said coldly as if he was suppressing his anger: "The so-called heroes don't care about their backgrounds. My virtuous brother is full of ambitions. Using it for the country will definitely benefit the world, but now it's just for such an absurd reason to get rid of you." Fame! Stupid officials! Short-sighted! A bunch of vulgar people!"

Just a few simple words, but Gu Xichao, who has always been cold-hearted, blushed, and his chest was full of emotion. After so many years, it seems that the persistence of so many years has paid off.

It turned out that what he wanted most was for someone to tell him that a hero doesn't care about his background, that's all!

As if it was the first time he took this young man who was clearly from a wealthy family seriously, he raised his wine bowl and said solemnly: "This is just for Brother Bai, if you don't mind, I will respect you for the rest of my life." Brother! This cup, I respect my elder brother!"

Yan Jing Bailang smiled and said: "Okay! It's a blessing to have such a talented and talented brother. This situation should be understood!"

The two faced each other and drank the wine in the bowl, and then looked at each other, ignoring the eyes of others, and laughed together.

After the laughter, Yan Jingbai touched his body, then took out a small seal from his bosom and handed it to the other party, and then said: "My brother's official career has been bumpy, but fortunately he can't say goodbye to his brother, but he still has some status in the court. You can use this item to go to the Ministry of the Central Committee or the Privy Council, and you can choose from the literature or the army as you like."

Gu Xichao took the seal half-believingly, but the next moment he turned pale with shock.

The small seal is unremarkable, not even carved into various exquisite shapes like many rich and noble families, but the bright red word "Jingkang" at the bottom of the seal is stinging people's eyes.

It was the first time in Gu Xichao's life that he lost his composure in front of people, staring at the other person in a daze, and was speechless for a while.

Yan Jingbai smiled lightly, gentle and refined, "With my virtuous brother's intelligence, I should have already guessed."

Hearing this, Gu Xichao shook his head and smiled wryly: "It is indeed a guess! Brother Bai has a good temperament. Although the clothes look simple, the needlework is excellent, and the materials used are only produced a few times a year by the best workshop in the world Ten pieces of ink brocade. And the family member next to Brother Bai has a high-pitched voice, a beardless face, and although his every move is subtle, it can still be seen that he is a rootless person."

After a pause, he said with a complicated expression: "At first I only thought you were a relative of the emperor, at most you were a certain prince, but I never thought you would be an official. The grassroots have offended you so much, so don't blame the officials."

After finishing speaking, there was a little respect in his expression, but due to the environment he was in, he just cupped his hands to show respect.

Yan Jingbai frowned, sighed and said: "Just now I was recognized as elder brother, but now he offends me one by one. If I had known, I wouldn't have given you the seal."

"Officials..." Gu Xichao was speechless.

Yan Jingbai held his hand across the table, and said: "I really want to get acquainted with you, does Xi Chao want to deny my elder brother because of my identity?"

"Of course not!" Gu Xichao said hastily, and then he pondered for a moment, and when he raised his eyes again, he was firm, "Officials don't mind their identities, and if they are close to each other, it will be hypocrisy if Xichao evades. Gu Xichao swears here , from now on, the official family is not only my king, but also my elder brother, Gu Xichao will always follow his elder brother in this life!"

Yan Jingbai smiled heartily, and a satisfied light flashed in his slightly narrowed eyes.

"Ding——The player's body was shaken, his arrogance leaked, he successfully subdued Gu Xichao, prestige +1, charisma +1!"
