A maid had already peeled the skin and poured wine for him.At this time, not many people came, and they didn't sit down, they all gathered together.They were all wearing casual clothes now, and Cheng Yu couldn't judge their identities from their clothes.

The few people gathered together sometimes whispered and sometimes laughed.Cheng Yu had no intention of listening to their conversation, but their voices became louder and louder, and Cheng Yu couldn't help but listen.

"I heard that he went to the Imperial College these days and worshiped Jijiu as his teacher. He also pretended to write a few sour poems in front of the supervisor. It's just a classmate. I'm ashamed to say that I can't even pass the exam. They are from our Dali Temple!"

"Brother Chen, what you said is a little wrong. There is no one in the world who doesn't want to be famous, but not everyone is as talented as Brother Chen. You are aloof and clean. There are so many people who can't be admitted to Jinshi There are few people with the character of Brother Chen in the world, so don't you allow others to go through the back door?"

Cheng Yu could tell that this group belonged to Dali Temple.Zhao Chong is the Minister of Dali Temple. Except for a few high-ranking officials, the rest are colleagues of Dali Temple.They were not wearing official uniforms, so Cheng Yu couldn't tell whether they were the chief secretary or the young minister.And these people in front of them seemed to be talking about a person.Cheng Yu couldn't help being quite curious in his heart, who was the unlucky guy who got so mixed up that the people of Dali Temple would exclude him like this.

The brother surnamed Chen was praised, but he was not humble.Tan Ershou said: "I usually look down on people who are sycophants. I can't help seeing such small people."

"I heard that his mother used to be a pawn wife. I really don't know what people in the official department do. Such people can even enter the officialdom!"

"Brother Chen, you don't know this. Some people can show their face. At the Wen family banquet, under the eyes of everyone..."

Then someone grabbed his sleeve and signaled him to keep silent.

"You see him coming?"

Cheng Yu followed the sound and saw Pei Zifu being led in by the maid.Pei Zifu obviously also saw Cheng Yu, his steps faltered slightly, and then returned to normal.The maid led him to sit next to Cheng Yu.Only then did Cheng Yu realize that the person they were talking about just now was none other than Pei Zifu.

In his previous life, he knew very little about Pei Zifu, except that he was born a scoundrel.Know nothing else.Seeing that Pei Zifu was sitting down, those few people did not restrain themselves because of the presence of the person involved.

Pei Zifu seemed to be ignorant, drinking one sip after another.It seems that what the group of people said has nothing to do with themselves.He was wearing a blue robe, and his face was between a boy and an adult, a little childish and a little sharp.Cheng Yu thought of Pei Zifu's temperament of revenge in the future, if he was in charge of the prison in the future, none of these people would want to escape from his grasp.

Seeing those people talking more and more, it became more and more unsightly.In the end, Cheng Yu couldn't help but make a move.

"Everyone, the dinner party has just begun. We are here to congratulate the old lady on her birthday, so it is not appropriate to make noise here!"

Only then did those few people realize that while they were speaking, the rest of the guests also sat down, and they were the only ones left, and their faces suddenly became hot.

"Who is this dear friend?" The person who asked the question was the one surnamed Chen who was congratulated by them just now.

Cheng Yu said: "Xia Yu, I met Brother Chen."

The man raised his eyebrows, "Is there anyone with the surname Xia in the capital? Haven't you heard of it?" Then he looked at his legs, "What's wrong with your legs? It looks a bit wrong!"

Cheng Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, only thinking that this person was so ignorant.I wanted to find him a step down, but I didn't expect the other party to embarrass me.At the moment, even if you really haven't heard of it, you should put on a face for a while.

"So Xiaohou Xia is here too?" The one who spoke was Feng Ningxiang who was invited in by Zhao Chong himself.Cheng Yu gave him a slight salute.

"I have seen Master Feng!"

Feng Ning waved his hand and said, "I never thought I would meet you on the old lady's birthday today, so I won't have to go to your place later." Then he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Cheng Yu hands.

"It's a letter written by Ning Ping, please entrust me to deliver it to you!"

Cheng Yu took the letter and thanked him.

"Thank you, Lord Feng!" Seeing that he and Feng Ningxiang were so familiar, the other party heard Feng Ningxiang calling him Lord Xia.Guess his identity immediately.

"It turns out... so it is, Young Lord Xia. Please forgive me for being stupid, I offended you just now, and hope that Young Master Xia will be merciful!"

Cheng Yu is not a man who is unreasonable and unforgiving, so he said a few more polite words, and then hid the envelope in his sleeve.Although he really wanted to see what Feng Ningping wrote to him inside, he felt it was inappropriate to open the letter at someone else's birthday banquet in person.Prepare to leave after a while.

"Thank you!"

Cheng Yu, who came back and was about to sit down, was taken aback when he heard the words, as if he felt an auditory hallucination.Involuntarily looked towards the source of the sound.Pei Zifu was still drinking one cup after another. Although he didn't look towards him, he seemed to feel that Cheng Yu was looking at him.He added: "Actually, it doesn't matter, I'm used to it, and what they said is true!"

According to Cheng Yu's original temperament, he would never say anything to Pei Zifu, let alone help him out.But what Zhao Jinshu told him that day, before that person made a mistake, bring him back to the right path.There was a fluke in his heart.Perhaps Pei Zifu in this life will not become a cold-blooded and ruthless mad dog like his previous life.

"You can't choose a person's origin, but you can choose what kind of person you become. Back then, the treacherous ministers of the previous dynasty betrayed the country for glory and misunderstood the country's benefactors. Isn't there also a loyal and brave marquis who sacrificed his life for the country!"

What Cheng Yu said about the old affairs of the previous dynasty was because of this traitor who deceived the emperor and misused the country, causing the people to live in dire straits. □□The emperor rose up in anger.The army was like a broken bamboo and destroyed the old empire, and the treacherous minister was so frightened that he went out of the city overnight to present the jade seal brought from the palace to the first emperor.But his son has been loyally protecting the little emperor, and finally died of several stab wounds. □□In order to commend him for his meritorious service in protecting the Lord, the emperor posthumously granted him the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.Some ancestral halls have also been built, and incense is kept burning every day.

When Cheng Yu mentioned this matter, he naturally wanted to encourage him.Pei Zifu's eyes were slightly excited after hearing this.

The two of them were seated at the bottom, and their conversations were not loud. Generally, no one would notice them.However, not far away, a pair of eyes were staring at them laboriously.Seeing Cheng Yu's kind face talking and laughing with Pei Zifu, he couldn't sit still.He thought that Cheng Yu must not understand Pei Zifu, or was deceived by him.Although Cheng Yu said he didn't mind just now, but he always had a brood in his heart.He was determined to reveal the true colors of Pei Zifu.

Dang Shi walked towards Cheng Yu with a wine glass. Cheng Yu was talking to Pei Zifu, but when he saw the brother surnamed Chen walking towards him, he stopped talking.

"Master Xia, I offended you just now. Mr. Chen made an apology to you with wine for his bad words!"

Although Cheng Yu doesn't like to drink, he never takes pride in others, let alone in front of everyone.Dang even took the glass and drank it down.

However, after toasting, he did not leave.

"Master Xia, you are new to the capital. You may not know many things in the capital. Many people pretend to be harmless to humans and animals, but in fact they are a person who will stop at nothing in order to climb up!"

Cheng Yu unconsciously glanced at Pei Zifu.

"Just like the one in front of you, who was born a scoundrel. Back then, he lost his pet dog on Mr. Wen's birthday, and learned how to bark like a dog in front of everyone, which made Mr. Wen laugh, so he could stay with Mr. Wen. How about this Shameless person, Master Xia should not make friends with this person, so as not to tarnish your reputation!"

Cheng Yu said: "Thank you, Brother Chen, for your concern. I have always believed that the pure is self-cleaning and the turbid is turbid. Besides, I don't have a good reputation. Besides, if white can be stained turbid, it can only show that Bai's concentration is insufficient. Besides, in person It shouldn't be a gentleman's way to humiliate people!" Although he said this in a very gentle tone, the face of the other party turned red instantly.

"Your Majesty, it was originally a good intention. It's fine if Mr. Xia doesn't appreciate it, why humiliate me!" After speaking, he shook his sleeves angrily and returned to his seat.As soon as he sat down, the person sitting next to him immediately poured wine and comforted him.

Ever since Cheng Yu finished talking with Pei Zifu, he suddenly found other topics.Although in the eyes of outsiders, he chatted with Pei Zifu and helped him out.The relationship between the two looks good.But Cheng Yu understood in his heart that the country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change.Besides, Pei Zifu belongs to Wen Ming, and Cheng Yu doesn't want to have too much involvement with his words, so when he speaks, every word he confides has been carefully considered by him, and it is hard to grasp. Hold on.

For a moment, the air between the two of them suddenly became extremely quiet.Cheng Yu touched the envelope in his sleeve, got up and said goodbye to Zhao Chong.Chen's mother was old, so she showed up for a while, and then went back to the house to rest.So at this time, Cheng Yu's farewell is not considered rude.

Zhao Chong looked at Cheng Yu's limping back and shook his head secretly. He had heard some time ago that His Majesty bestowed the fox fur on this person as a token of favor.I thought he was a stunningly talented person, but he didn't expect to be crippled.Even if this person is more favored in the future, because of this lame leg, he can only be a middle-lower official in the court.

Naturally, Cheng Yu couldn't hear Chong's heartfelt words, and even if he did, he probably wouldn't care too much.What he wants to do most now is to find a place to open the letter Feng Ningping gave him.

It is estimated that God heard Cheng Yu's heartfelt words. Not long after he left the Zhao Mansion, he saw a few strings of red lanterns hanging on the flagpole of an inn.Although the light is not very clear, but if the light is on, the words on it can still be seen clearly.

However, just when he was about to get close to the bright light, the door of the inn opened from the inside, and a blue figure jumped out from the inn with a panicked expression.

Just as Cheng Yu wanted to call Zhao Jinshu to stop, the words came to his throat when he was interrupted by another figure chasing Zhao Jinshu.It was a girl in a purple skirt.Looking at the gradually disappearing figure, the girl stomped her feet and tapped her toes.The figure flitted towards Zhao Jinshu's direction.After a while, the figures of the two disappeared into the night.

During this time, Cheng Yu had never seen Zhao Jinshu.He thought that some time ago, when he went to Prince Ping's mansion, he was always stopped by the guards.Thinking that King Ping had something to do was just a prevarication, but he didn't expect it to be true.

Cheng Yu was limping on one leg. Although he was not walking slowly, it took a lot of effort to catch up with the two of them.He originally thought that Zhao Jinshu would return to Prince Ping's Mansion, but he never expected that Zhao Jinshu would go around in a big circle and return to the original place.

And he also followed the two of them and made a big circle.

In the end, it was Zhao Jinshu who lost his strength first, holding his stomach and bending over, panting heavily.But his legs kept moving forward.It was as if there was a scourge behind him.

"Axiu! Don't run away, I taught you all the kung fu of your three-legged cat. You can't run against me!" The girl panted
