Little Dandy, He's a Little Good

Rong Zhuo didn't get the answer he wanted from Zhou Feng, and was hit by the other party, obviously in a bad mood.

He lowered his head, pinched the wine glass with his slender, white fingers, and wondered if he was sulking.

He didn't expect that this group of literati would talk to people about such straightforward topics.

If he had known that he would be asked this question, he should have made some preparations in advance, so he wouldn't be so passive.

While Rong Zhuo was annoyed that his reaction was a failure, he couldn't help thinking about how to make up for it.

But this kind of topic often requires the first reaction, and if he seeks to make up for it after the fact, it will become darker and darker.

The more Rong Zhuo thought about it, the more depressed he became, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

He was four or five points drunk at first, but after drinking several glasses of wine in succession, he became even more drunk.

Yu Jingdu looked away from him, and winked when Jin Douzi was about to refill his glass.

Jin Douzi was also clever, and after knowing it, he quietly replaced the hip flask in his hand with a teapot.

Rong Zhuo didn't know whether he was confused from drinking, or he was absent-minded, but he didn't drink the wine and was replaced with tea, and just drank half a pot of tea one cup after another.

"I'll make it easier for you." Rong Zhuo stood up while supporting the table, but his body swayed a little because of his drunkenness.

Yu Jingdu quickly put his hands on his waist, rubbed the tip of Rong Zhuo's nose against the side of his neck, and couldn't help sniffing.

"Why is the smell of your incense so familiar?" Rong Zhuo said to himself.

Yu Jingdu frowned slightly, he didn't expect Rong Zhuo's nose to be so sharp.

In fact, the smell of incense on his body is not strong, but he lives in Xunhuan Building, even if he doesn't use incense, his clothes will always be stained.This level of fragrance is hard to smell from a distance, but it was still captured by the drunken Rong Zhuo.

The young man looked up at Yu Jingdu with drunken eyes, his eyes lingered for a moment on his face with a human skin mask, but he really couldn't see any clues.

"My lord, don't you want to go there for convenience?" Jin Douzi asked puzzled.

"Oh yes." Rong Zhuo hurriedly let go of Yu Jingdu, and was escorted by Jin Douzi to the outside of the hall.

Zhou Feng looked at the backs of the master and servant, one red and one green, and exchanged a glance with Yu Jingdu. Does that mean you want to go with them for convenience?Yu Jingdu shook his head, probably because he was afraid that Rong Zhuo would notice something if he followed too closely.

After Rong Zhuo went to wash his hands, he also washed his face while washing his hands.

Shocked by the cold water, his alcoholism dissipated a bit.

He sighed and thought of today's experience, and couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.

Why doesn't everyone have the slightest dislike for him?

Was he really such a failure as a dandy?

If these literati don't hate him very much, will the prince be the same as them and not care about it?

"Young master, why are you moaning?" Jin Douzi asked puzzled.

"Do you think everyone hates me?" Rong Zhuo asked him.

"I don't think so, I think they all like young master, probably because they think young master is good-looking." Jin Douzi said.

Hearing what he said, Rong Zhuo became even more depressed, and didn't even want to go back to the hall.

"You can stay with me in the garden for a while, I want to be quiet." Rong Zhuo said.

Hearing this, Jin Douzi helped him across the path, thinking of going to sit in the pavilion not far away for a while.

Unexpectedly, the master and servant walked around the flowers and turned a corner to see a person sitting in the pavilion.

The man was dressed in white, he looked only in his early twenties, and he had a good temperament, which was quite pleasing to the eye.

"Oh, there's someone." Jin Douzi helped Rong Zhuo and wanted to go back.

At this time, the people sitting in the pavilion also saw them, and said with a smile: "You two are here, why don't you have a taste of the tea brewed below before leaving?"

"Then disturb the young master." Jin Douzi bowed to him and said, "My young master drank too much wine, come out to get some air."

"You two, please go ahead." The man in white pointed to the seat opposite the tea table, signaling them to be free.

Rong Zhuo saluted him, then walked across to him and sat down.

The man casually picked up a teacup, poured freshly brewed tea into it, and handed it to Rong Zhuo.

"Thank you, but I'm a bit drunk in it." Rong Zhuo gave him a helpless smile and explained: "If I can't drink it, it's not because you didn't cook it well."

The other party was a little surprised when he heard the words, and raised his eyes to look carefully at Rong Zhuo for a while.

He knew that the people who came to this garden today were all literati, but he didn't expect that there would be someone like Rong Zhuo in there.The young man was beautiful and delicate, dressed in a red robe flamboyantly, but it didn't make people feel abrupt in the eyes, on the contrary, he carried a kind of vitality that is rare in literati.

Seeing him staring at him, Rong Zhuo didn't know that he was looking at him, he just thought that he was not happy if he didn't drink tea.

"How about... let me try a piece of your dim sum!" Rong Zhuo reached out and picked up a piece of dim sum on the tea table, "It's just a matter of time to go to get rid of the alcohol."

He picked up the snack, and looked at the other party with some hesitation, as if waiting for the other party's consent.

The man made a casual gesture towards him, and said with a smile: "You can't drink tea, but can you eat snacks?"

"What's so strange about this?" Rong Zhuo smiled, "Haven't you heard of it? The human stomach is divided into different parts. If you are full from a meal, you don't delay eating snacks, and if you are full from drinking, you naturally don't delay eating snacks. "

"What nonsense is this?" the man asked.

"It's not unreasonable, try it next time and you'll know." Rong Zhuo said as he picked up another piece of dim sum and put it in his mouth, and also took a piece for the golden bean beside him.

"Are you the master of making tea in Yong'an Hou Mansion?" Rong Zhuo talked to him while eating snacks.

"Probably." The other party smiled, and didn't give Rong Zhuo a chance to continue to grasp the topic, "I just saw the young master's frowning face down below, but what's on your mind?"

"Hey..." Rong Zhuo sighed, "It doesn't matter if you don't say anything."

"It must be very annoying to make the young master ignore the banquet in the hall, right?"

This person looks gentle and elegant, and his tone of voice makes people feel very comfortable. He belongs to the kind of person who is easy to gain trust.

He said this lightly, if Rong Zhuo didn't take precautions, he would probably be caught out easily.

Ke Rongzhuo has a good habit. He doesn't like to speak his mind when he's drunk, and he seldom makes a slip of the tongue after drinking.

It's not that he has good self-control, but that his thinking will become very strange after drinking too much, making it difficult for people to guide...

In short, people ask questions and he answers things, and people talk about dogs and chickens.

No, the other party asked him what was on his mind. He was in a daze for a moment, then suddenly got up and said, "Thanks to your reminder, I have to go back, otherwise it would be rude to leave for too long..."

"By the way..." Rong Zhuo was just about to leave with the help of the golden beans, when he suddenly remembered something, took out two gold leaves from his purse and put them on the tea table, "I can't eat your snacks for nothing." He said and then After saluting to the man, Jin Douzi left with his arm.

The man looked at Rong Zhuo's back with a complicated expression, and then his eyes fell on the two gold leaves.

It was the first time in his life that he was sent away with gold, and he was in a delicate mood.

"Douzi!" Rong Zhuo asked Jindouzi after leaving the gazebo, "Do you think the tea maker just now looks familiar? It seems like I've seen it somewhere before."

"This is the first time we have come to this garden, how could we have seen it?" Jin Douzi said.

"That's true." Rong Zhuo shook his still somewhat drowsy head, without thinking about it, he quickly forgot about this person.

After the master and servant returned, the banquet was coming to an end.

According to the process that Rong Zhuo learned in advance, the banquet after today's poetry meeting will be the last project.

After the banquet, Yong'an Hou Shizi will invite everyone to taste tea out of politeness.

But this tea tasting is actually just polite words, and those who know the etiquette will choose to leave at this time.

But Rong Zhuo didn't leave in a hurry, but waited patiently for a while.

If he guessed correctly, the prince will ask people to keep all the people he wants to recruit at this time.

Sure enough, Rong Zhuo saw that the entourage of the Hou Mansion left several people behind and took them to the side hall.

Presumably these people are the candidates selected by the prince.

Rong Zhuo waited tremblingly for a while, and he was completely relieved when all his followers left.

These people didn't keep him, does it mean that the prince really doesn't plan to recruit him?

Rong Zhuo didn't dare to be happy too early, for fear that extreme joy would turn into sadness.

It wasn't until he bid farewell to Zhao Shijun that he was sure that he had indeed escaped a catastrophe today.

The crown prince really did not intend to keep him, otherwise when he was about to leave, Prince Yong'an Hou would definitely keep him.

He succeeded!

The crown prince really gave up on recruiting him!

Rong Zhuo was so happy that his steps became much lighter, and the haze on his face was swept away.

God knows how disturbed he was when he learned that no one hated him today.

He was afraid that the prince would be too tolerant of what he did like these people.

Fortunately, the crown prince is indeed a person who can't rub the sand in his eyes, and actually abandoned him!

"Young Master Rong, what happened to you, so happy?" Zhou Feng came over and greeted him from a distance.

"I am honored to meet Brother Zhou today, I am naturally happy." Rong Zhuo said with a smile.

Rong Zhuo was overjoyed, and he took the initiative to hug Zhou Feng as he spoke.

Hugging Zhou Feng was not enough for him, he even hugged the "little servant" beside Zhou Feng.

Yu Jingdu froze and remained motionless, with a very complicated expression.

He didn't know that the little dandy still had this hobby when he was happy.

Fortunately, the other party was not happy at the banquet, otherwise wouldn't he want to hug everyone who came today?

"I'll see you some other day, and I'm leaving." Rong Zhuo said and got into the carriage.

"My lord, shall we go home directly?" Jin Douzi asked.

"What mansion are you going back to? Go to Xun Huan Lou!" Rong Zhuo said impatiently.

Afterwards, Rong's carriage drove away, as if to show the urgency of Young Master Rong.

Zhou Feng looked at the carriage going away, and then at the "little servant" beside him, not knowing what to say for a while.

Yu Jingdu was obviously taken aback when he heard Rong Zhuo say the words "Go to Xunhuanlou".

Is the little dandy impatient to share with himself?

In fact, Rong Zhuo not only wanted to share with Yu Jingdu, but also wanted to celebrate with him.

In his opinion, at least half of the credit for things going so smoothly is due to "Qingshi".

After all, he can't be a dude by himself, and in order to establish a character outside, he often mentions the other party.

"Qingshi!" Rong Zhuo held a rose flower in his hand and knocked on the door of Yu Jingdu's room for a while.

Just when he thought the other party was not there, the door opened from the inside.

"Qingshi!" Rong Zhuo entered the door happily, first replaced the flowers in the vase with new ones, and then said to Yu Jingdu: "I'll take you out to eat delicious food tonight!"

Yu Jingdu looked at him, pretending to be casual and asked: "Why are you so happy today?"

"Of course I'm happy to meet something good." Rong Zhuo said, "Where's your mask? Put it on quickly, I've asked Douzi to book a seat, let's go to Jiang Yuezhai for dinner tonight."

Yu Jingdu didn't say anything, but according to his words, he found a mask and put it on, and Rong Zhuo walked out of the Xunhuan Tower with the desire to jump high.

Sister Hua leaned against the door and looked at the back of her highness, feeling tired for him.

Obviously, he rushed back quickly, turned his face and followed Young Master Rong as if nothing had happened...

Gee!

"It's the first time I'm so happy to see you." Yu Jingdu said to Rong Zhuo.

"It's the first time I've been so happy since I came here." After Rong Zhuo gave instructions to the waiter, he went to the table and sat down. He lowered his voice and said to Yu Jingdu: "Do you still remember that I told you to go?" About having dinner with an acquaintance?"

"Remember, are you ready for dinner?" Yu Jingdu asked him.

"Eat well, and the person I hate didn't see me!" Rong Zhuo couldn't help being happy again, got up and took a few steps around the room, "I shouldn't have to be afraid of him anymore. "

Seeing his happy appearance, Yu Jingdu couldn't help but smile on his face.

He has no expression most of the time on weekdays, and even less when he smiles.

When Rong Zhuo saw him smile, he was almost stunned, and it took him a while to react.

"You look pretty when you smile." Rong Zhuo said foolishly.

Yu Jingdu restrained his smile, and asked, "That person didn't like you, is it because you were drunk?"

"I'm not too drunk." Rong Zhuo went to the table and sat down again, "I don't know why their wine has no taste in the end. I drank more than a pot, and I wasn't drunk at all."

Yu Jingdu suddenly wanted to laugh, thinking that this person really didn't realize that what he drank later was tea?

Even if the flavors can't be distinguished, but the wine is cold and the tea is hot... He can't tell the difference, it seems that he is somewhat drunk.

"Then why didn't he take a fancy to you?" Yu Jingdu asked.

Based on what he saw today, he thought that the crown prince would not give up trying to recruit Rong Zhuo.

In his opinion, whether the crown prince minds Rong Zhuo's reputation depends entirely on the direction of public opinion.

Since these literati don't have any dislike towards Rong Zhuo, it stands to reason that the crown prince shouldn't mind either.

But why didn't the other party keep Rong Zhuo in the end?

"Probably thinks I'm too dandy." Rong Zhuo raised his chin, looking quite proud.

But Yu Jingdu didn't think so, he always felt that something was wrong.

"You went out today... When you had dinner with your acquaintances, did anything happen?" Yu Jingdu asked him.

"Not really." Rong Zhuo thought for a while, "I drank too much wine halfway to make a convenience, and came back to eat a snack in their garden..."

Yu Jingdu was startled, "Why are there snacks in the garden?"

"It's their tea master making tea, I just ate a snack if I didn't want to drink tea." Rong Zhuo said.

Yu Jingdu keenly caught something, "Tea maker?"

"That's right, he's quite young, and he looks good, gentle and elegant." Rong Zhuo said.

"Are you wearing all white?" Yu Jingdu asked.

"That's right." Rong Zhuo said, "Do all the teamakers like to dress like that?"

Yu Jingdu took a meaningful look at Rong Zhuo, but stopped talking.

He really wanted to remind this little dandy that even if ordinary rich people find someone to make tea, they will probably find a girl, who would find a man to make tea?

And that person is dressed in white, gentle and elegant...

Yu Jingdu was a little skeptical, did the person Rong Zhuo said didn't like him, did he really not?

Or did the man have other plans?

But with his current status, he couldn't say anything to Rong Zhuo.

Yu Jingdu didn't enjoy the meal, but Rong Zhuo was unaware of his situation and ate carefree.

Yu Jingdu's eyes fell on the young man's smiling face, and he felt a little panicked.

"Have I never told you formally before? In fact, I came to Xunhuan Building to do so many actions just for today." Rong Zhuo said to Yu Jingdu while pouring himself a glass of wine: "I hate it That person doesn't like dandies, so I thought that as long as I indulged in sex, he would look down on me."

What Rong Zhuo said, Yu Jingdu had already guessed about everything, so he was not surprised when he heard it.

"Aren't you unhappy? I'm using you like this." Rong Zhuo asked nervously.

"What's there to be unhappy about? It's not a disadvantage for me." Yu Jingdu said.

Rong Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said again: "But I am sincere in making friends with you, whether I take you out to play or take you to eat, I sincerely treat you as a friend."

"Yes, I know." Yu Jingdu nodded.

Seeing this, Rong Zhuo's eyes were filled with a smile again, as if he had let go of something on his mind.

"Will you come to Xun Huan Lou in the future?" Yu Jing Du asked Rong Zhuo after the two of them finished their dinner and came out.

"Of course I'm coming." Rong Zhuo drank some wine and said to him drunkenly: "Not only do we want to come, but we also want to come in a costly manner."

The so-called acting has to be a complete set, and now the prince has abandoned him, which is only the first step to his success.

If he suddenly changed his ways and returned to the right, there was no guarantee that the other party would not accept him again.

Therefore, the safest way is that in the next few days, he will continue to be his dandy, until he fails the ranking next year, he will become a person with no fame and bad character.

At that time, no matter what, the crown prince would no longer be able to look at him again.

"Qingshi..." Rong Zhuo stretched out his hand and tugged on Yu Jingdu's sleeve, and smiled with a blushing face, "I have something embarrassing, but I can't find anyone else to ask it, so I can only ask you."

"what?"

"That's the one..." Rong Zhuo looked around, and pulled him to a secluded place, "You also know that although I often go to Hualou, I have always kept myself clean."

Seeing his awkward look, Yu Jingdu guessed what he was going to ask.

The little dandy was teased by Zhou Feng today, exposing his innocence, so he couldn't hold back his anger.

"And then?" Yu Jingdu raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

"I want to ask you, this is the situation... Do you understand my situation?" He lowered his voice with some embarrassment, and asked in Yu Jingdu's ear, "Can others see it?"

"What do you see?" Yu Jingdu continued to play dumb.

Rong Zhuo only thought that he didn't understand clearly enough, so he had no choice but to continue to explain: "It's just that you and I don't... that what... Can others see it?"

He seemed to be afraid that Yu Jingdu would not understand, so he hooked the index fingers of both hands together as a gesture.

"This." Yu Jingdu coughed lightly and said, "Of course I can see it."

"Ah?" Rong Zhuo suddenly realized, "No wonder they don't believe it, can they all see that I am still..."

Rong Zhuo didn't know what to think of, his face, which was already flushed from drinking alcohol, turned redder than before.

"How did you see it?" Rong Zhuo asked Yu Jingdu humbly, "And...how can people not see it?"

Yu Jingdu looked down at the little dandy who was thirsty for knowledge, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

"I know some methods." Yu Jingdu leaned close to Rong Zhuo's ear, lowered his voice and asked, "But are you sure you want to learn?"

Rong Zhuo's ears itched slightly, he shrank his neck uncomfortably, and then thought for a moment with a serious face.

He has to continue to pretend to be a dude in the future, and it is best not to let people see his flaws in this kind of matter.

Otherwise, no matter where he goes, someone will tease him like Zhou Feng did.

Dude also wants to save face, right?

Otherwise, if the matter spreads, others may think that he is not good at that.

"I want to learn." Rong Zhuo looked at Yu Jingdu seriously, "Teach me!"

Yu Jingdu: ...

The author has something to say:

Yu Jingdu: If you want to talk about this, I won’t be sleepy anymore
