The whole city knows we are locked

Before today, Shen Yu never imagined that he could see the picture of Guozijian and Taixue's family.His heart moved, he stood up and said, "Don't go to the restaurant, there are so many of us, how big a private room does the restaurant have to prepare?"

There are many people in the two Cuju teams!Going to a restaurant requires at least three tables!

Shen Yu smiled and said: "I don't think it's better than this. Anyway, the Cuju venue has been rented out, and the rest of the time is ours. Let's hold a banquet in this venue. It doesn't need to be high-standard, as long as it is lively."

Cai Bo was afraid that the enthusiastic grandson of Rong Wang would continue to take him to the restaurant, so he hurriedly said, "I think it will work!"

Must do!

Ask the petty officials to borrow a few tables, and everyone moves them outside together; arrange the tables neatly and put them together into a big table, and put a clean cloth on it; there are many small food stalls on the street outside, and everyone disperses and queues up , After a while, he came back with all kinds of snacks... Put the food away, can't we start the banquet?

King Rong's grandson came back with a jar of rice wine in his arms.This wine was bought from a stall selling fermented glutinous rice eggs. The stall owner didn't sell it. The rice wine was just his raw material. He didn't specialize in selling wine!But the grandson of King Rong felt that a banquet without wine was not enough, so he launched a money offensive, so he brought the rice wine from others.

Seeing that the jar of rice wine was really heavy, Ku Ziyun hurried over to give him a hand.

"Thank you!" King Rong's grandson approached Ku Ziyun and asked in a low voice, "I heard that all of you Taixue are poor...Ah, Aqiu!" He almost uttered the word "poor and particular" , and pretended to sneeze to cover it up.

"Cough!" Rong Wang's grandson said again, "I heard that you are too educated to be elegant, so after the banquet, do you want to recite poems first? Let me tell you, let's forget about today. Everyone should relax and focus on eating and drinking." gone."

If you have to recite poems to be right, don’t blame us for poisoning your ears with doggerel, hum!

Ku Ziyun smiled and said: "I heard that your Guozijian likes to show off. You can order four dishes for a meal, but you have to order sixteen. Let me tell you, let's forget about it today. Everyone should be frugal and don't waste food." .”

"Where did you hear that? We're not so stupid!" The grandson of King Rong snorted.

"We don't just recite poems all day long." Ku Ziyun hinted.

The grandson of King Rong suddenly realized, and smiled at Ku Ziyun.The two put down the wine jar, and the grandson of Rong Wang patted Ku Ziyun's shoulder vigorously: "Haha, you are much more interesting than I imagined! Let's play together in the future!"

There are a bunch of snacks on the table.Everyone sits in disorder.

Because it is not a serious banquet, the atmosphere is very relaxed.Shen Yu picked up a string of fried tofu very accurately, which was the one that someone was obsessed with, and handed it to someone.Yan Chuyin's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

This time I can eat enough to my heart's content!

Shen Yu handed it naturally, and Yan Chuyin received it even more naturally.Few people noticed this scene, but Lu Xiaoli must have seen it.A thought came to Lu Xiaoli's mind: No way, Shen Yu arranged all this ingeniously. Could it be that he was thinking that Xin Lehou didn't have enough to eat before, so he found a chance for Xin Lehou to eat with confidence, boldly and happily? ?

"No, no, how can I think of Mr. Shen so much?" Lu Xiaoli persuaded himself forcefully, "He clearly wants the Imperial College and the Imperial Academy to completely turn their hostility into friendship, for the honor of the Imperial Academy, and to help the students let go of their grudges. What better way to get acquainted with a company than by letting them eat and drink together?"

When Lu Xiaoli almost convinced himself, he saw Shen Yu hiding a bunch of fried tofu - you must know that the young masters and buddies present were all at the age when they could eat, although they bought a lot of food, everything was very delicious. Buy a few or a dozen copies, but there is not much to share with each person. If you don’t rush to eat, you will have nothing to eat!

When Yan Chuyin finished eating one skewer, Shen Yu happened to pass the second skewer over.

Yan Chuyin shook her head.Lu Xiaoli stood far away and couldn't hear what Xin Lehou said, so he probably meant that he didn't want to eat.Shen Yu started to eat by himself.Lu Xiaoli felt...he couldn't convince himself at all!

Shen Yu's biggest purpose is indeed to feed Xin Lehou, right?

When the Taixue people respected Shen Yu with rice wine gratefully, Lu Xiaoli thought coldly: Your boss seems to be your boss, but in fact his heart is no longer with you, you have to learn to be independent!

The food on the table was gradually wiped out.

The alcohol content of rice wine is not high, and the taste is sweet. It is not so much wine as sweet water.Cai Bo couldn't understand why someone could get drunk from a bowl of sweet water.The drunk grandson of the princess embraced Cai Bo and cried loudly: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Cai Bo patted the drunk man expressionlessly: "Don't cry." My shoulders were soaked.

"Wooooow, cousin, you despise me!" The drunk cried even harder.

Cai Bai was treated as a cousin: "I don't dislike you, don't cry. I beg you, don't cry!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

"..."

The others looked at them and laughed.The one who laughed the loudest was Yan Chuyin.The tense situation an hour ago seems to have been a very, very distant thing, and now there is only a happy atmosphere in everyone's heart.

When it was dusk, the teenagers went back to their homes.

Yan Chuyin and Shen Yu walked on the street at sunset.The atmosphere was so good, Yan Chuyin didn't want to talk about some disappointing topics, the aristocratic family and Shi Yue, the stinky rats in the gutter, who was the scheming man who almost caused the Imperial College and the Taixue to fight today... But not Talking about this, what else can he and Shen Yu talk about?

"What do you like to do on weekdays?" Yan Chuyin said with some distress, "I know you love to read books and practice calligraphy. Besides these, what else do you like to do? Just like Cao Lu loves to read heroes' storybooks, what do you love? "

Shen Yu: "..."

It is obviously a very simple topic, but for Shen Yu, it seems difficult to give any novel answers.He is good at many things. He is good at studying the six arts of a gentleman. He is also good at Cuju. He can play Tibetan hooks and cards.

"If I said... I only love reading and practicing calligraphy, would you think I'm boring?" Shen Yu asked back.

A few months ago, if Yan Chuyin had known through certain channels that Shen Yu had no other hobbies in his life except reading and calligraphy, he would have laughed and said that he was indeed a nerd!But now, after hearing this, Yan Chuyin could only admire in her heart: "No way! How can this be boring? Who dares to say that the head of the four princes of Taixue is boring?"

Yan Chuyin could not wait to use all the beautiful words to boast to Shen Yu: "Many people at your age are not four or six years old and don't understand anything. Look at the ones on the Cuju field today... Hey, I really didn't say that. They, look at what they have done! As for you, you already have Xiao Sanyuan in your hands, and you will take the provincial examination this autumn! You can do this, on the one hand, it is because of your talent, and you have won the love of God, and more It is also because you are diligent in reading and studying...so, what an excellent hobby is reading and calligraphy!"

Probably feeling that the praise was not enough, Yan Chuyin concluded: "This is the most interesting hobby!"

interesting?

Even those in the Taixue who love reading the most dare not say that reading is an interesting thing.

But Yan Chuyin did boast sincerely.

The corners of Shen Yu's mouth could not help but curl up.Obviously, he has learned the ability to nourish Qi from the prime minister's grandfather, so he should learn not to be surprised at all times.But in front of Yan Chuyin, he always seems to be able to cheer up easily.

Shen Yu pretended to be sad: "You speak so well, I feel unworthy. Although I like to read and practice calligraphy, I don't have any elegant ideas. I just..." I just like the tricks soaked in between the lines.He is definitely not a pure literati, and he does not want to be a pure literati. His goal has always been his official career.He wants to go to a higher place, see the scenery of a higher place, and want to be the one who makes the rules.

This is cryptic.But miraculously, Yan Chuyin understood.

He understands again!

A few months ago, if Yan Chuyin knew about Shen Yu's ambitions, she would have muttered a few words.But at this time, he admired Shen Yu very much: "Hmph, I hate those people who pretend to be noble. Nobility is right in itself, but self-proclaimed loftiness makes people feel annoying. Books are meant to be read for people to understand Yes; understand the truth, and then put it into practice, this is the real lover of books. Do you think I am right?"

Who doesn't want to stand high?Who doesn't want to practice the principles in the book according to the ideals in their hearts?But how many people have been able to do this throughout the ages?Yan Chuyin believed that Shen Yu would definitely be able to do it!

Shen Yu was in a better mood, and asked again: "What about you? What do you like?"

Yan Chuyin was stunned for a while, thinking seriously for a long time.A few months ago, he would probably say that he likes playing with Cao Lu and the others—of course he still likes it now—like a snack in the Empress Dowager’s Palace, like being praised by the emperor’s uncle, like Cuju, especially in the Cuju field He has defeated opponents in the past... But at this moment, after having just had a conversation with Shen Yu, he suddenly felt that he didn't like those things so much.

No, like it or like it.

I still like the snacks in the queen mother's palace and the compliments from the emperor's uncle.

But suddenly there is something I like more, more than snacks and compliments.

Yan Chuyin said solemnly: "I like it...Although I don't like reading and writing so much, I am just like you." I also want to stand in the most correct position and practice the principles I have learned according to my own ideals.

The two walked on the street unhurriedly, the wind was light and the setting sun was soft.

"Hey, look! Today's sunset...is really beautiful." Yan Chuyin said, pointing to the sky.

Shen Yu nodded in agreement, and suddenly felt itchy and wanted to write a poem.

The guards hidden in the crowd were dressed in low-key clothes, but their eyes would always follow Yan Chuyin closely.Guard A made a gesture to Guard B.It's almost dark, why isn't the young master coming home?Guard B returned a gesture, meaning to continue to follow. When the master is hungry, the master will naturally know to go back.

There is no gentleness in the eyes of the guards at the same sunset.It looks... well, it looks like the yellow of salted duck eggs. I wonder if there will be salted duck eggs in the cafeteria tonight?It's full of oil when you poke it with a chopstick...

want to eat!
