Yanlouchun

Chapter 5 You are the little white lotus living in filth
Bai Bian fetched some water and prepared a hand towel.

After Shen Zhiyun tidied up his facial appearance, he didn't have any spare clothes, so he could only wait in the room for a while to let the wet marks dry naturally.

It's been a long time, and when I came out, the banquet was about to start.

Qi Lao never came to the main banquet from the beginning to the end, and sent someone to say that he was old, just looking for an excuse to let the young people get together.

Mrs. Qi also left early on the grounds that she was old.

Right now, Qi Minshi and Qi Lishi are taking the lead.

Shen Zhiyun walked through the pavilion and came to the front yard.

As the scene changed, the noise in the ears became louder and louder.

Qi Min saw her coming from the pavilion and was about to greet her.

Unexpectedly, Princess Zhile intercepted Hu halfway and stopped Shen Zhiyun.

Qi Minshi looked around, thinking whether to call Shen Zhiyun over.

Mrs. Qi Li came over and took Qi Minshi's arm, frowned and shook his head, "What age are you? I know what age you are. Why are you recruiting him into the group of drinking and boxing people like you?"

Qi Minzhi's eyes widened slightly, when did these literati's desks that practiced poetry and drinking became people who drank and punched.

"You let people know more and communicate with young people. Young people get together, and male guests and female relatives don't share the table, and they can also order poetry and wine. Why do you sit at the same table with you old fried dough sticks in the court?"

Qi Minshi was about to refute, but Qi Lishi blocked his words again.

"Ren Zhiyun calls you Brother Minshi, your son is only five or six years younger than Zhiyun, and he really regards himself as an older brother. It is because you are annoyed by you people that you are busy with government affairs every day, so you can't be a daughter-in-law. .”

Qi Minzhi smiled helplessly, and finally understood what his wife meant.

Indeed, the son of Jingzhong at Shen Zhiyun's age has already married a wife, and the fastest one even has a child in his arms.

There are indeed a lot of young people who came today, and the adults also brought a lot of female relatives.

It's funny to say that Gu Hanshu and Shen Zhiyun were torn apart in the court, disregarding half of their classmates' affection.

This Princess Zhile can be regarded as half a child raised by Gu Wangfu, but she always likes to play with Shen Zhiyun, and she doesn't know what Gu Hanshu thinks.

"Help me quickly, take a quick look."

Li Zhile concealedly slipped a note to Shen Zhiyun, with long nails on her green little finger, printed with soft red stamens, as if blooming at the fingertips, fresh, tender and delicate.

It's just that the delicate long nails didn't pay attention, and a scratch was drawn across the back of Shen Zhiyun's hand.

"Hey! It's okay, it's okay, I really didn't pay attention." Li Zhile said shortly, feeling guilty.

Shen Zhiyun turned his wrist and glanced, and said calmly, "No problem."

Then he unfolded the note, and Li Zhile pressed his hand down before he could read it clearly.

"You are too obvious! Keep a low profile!"

I'll touch it for you, and you'll open it right away, holding it so high, lest others won't find out that there is collusion between us.

Li Zhile stood up, puffed out her cheeks and kicked her.

Shen Zhiyun is very innocent, looking at the four servants standing silently behind Li Zhile, this formation, no matter where Princess Zhile goes, she will not be unobtrusive, and she can read this note casually.

"Come over here."

Li Zhile called out to the back, and ordered four servants to surround him and help Mr. Shen block other people's sight.

Seeing the four maids getting closer in front of him, Shen Zhiyun couldn't help taking a step back.

Wouldn't this picture be a little strange for others to see?
Don't you want to keep a low profile?
This is too pretentious.

Shen Zhiyun took a step back, Li Zhile thought she was going to leave, and hurriedly grabbed her sleeve, frowning and urged, "Look!"

Just now I thought it was too fast, but now I think it is too slow.

The princess is so difficult to serve.

Shen Zhiyun unfolded the ball of paper in his hand again. It was crumpled. It looked like it had just been written, and the ink was folded before it was dry. The handwriting was blurred and blurred, but the content could still be read clearly.

"Didn't we start discussing poetry after dinner?"

Shen Zhiyun glanced at it, the poem title written on the paper - it seemed to be true.

This time the topic is quite weird and interesting.

"Hush—" Li Zhile put his index finger in front of his lips, "Money can make ghosts grind."

After speaking, he laughed twice, thinking that he should not be too smart.

Shen Zhiyun smiled and said, "You are not aboveboard, and you even gave me the details in advance, so that I am also not aboveboard."

Li Zhile pouted, "The male guests and female relatives are compared together, don't you like showing off?"

"Besides, since you became an official, those who are in charge of government affairs and law enforcement have long since cut off from our class.

As he spoke, he gestured like a knife in two halves.

Good guy, so you are not worthy to participate in this kind of fun after you become an official?

She's only in her early twenties.

It turns out that the classes in the world are not only divided into nobles and common people, it turns out that even being an official will be discriminated against.

"Then tell me what class you are and what class I am?"

"We are innocent people who have not been polluted by the ruling party. You are living in a filthy place..."

Li Zhile's mind turned, thinking that she still wanted Shen Zhiyun, so she changed the topic.

"You are the little white lotus in the filth."

Li Zhile cupped his face in both hands and made a flower shape, tilting his head and laughing.

When did the princess count as a citizen?
And little white lotus...

Hearing these three words, Shen Zhiyun felt that his temples began to twitch slightly due to his busy government affairs recently.

Li Zhile took advantage of the victory and pursued, "You might as well give me this opportunity to show off. If I find a husband-in-law someday, I won't bother you anymore."

"Don't, just continue to bother me. The girls from the other family thought I was taken by the princess, so they didn't dare to come to me."

Shen Zhiyun used some internal force to crush the cheating note.

Seeing Shen Zhiyun's actions, Li Zhile was so frightened that Shen Zhiyun would not help her anymore, put his hands together, and said pitifully, "Please, please, Brother Zhiyun, you are the best."

Unexpectedly, Shen Zhiyun was very straightforward, raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes."

Li Zhile was so happy that he almost jumped up, "Really!"

This time it was so easy to talk.

"Really, but you have to do something for me."

"No problem." Li Zhile agreed more readily.

Shen Zhiyun possessed her body and quietly confessed to Li Zhile. Li Zhile became even happier when she heard this, and her brows were dancing.

"I thought you were trying to embarrass me, but this is clearly a reward—"

Shen Zhiyun laughed, so in Li Zhile's mind, is this a reward?
Hmm...why doesn't count.

"Since it's settled, you go back to your table, and I'll have a table with Master Qi."

Being blocked by the princess and four maids, this scene is not good.

Shen Zhiyun turned around to leave, Li Zhile grabbed her sleeve again, and said with some coyness: "That's right, you know my level...don't write too well."

Pretty self-aware.

Shen Zhiyun knocked her on the head, "Knowing what level I am, I'm always lazy."

"How did you learn to love knocking people like your teacher!"

Li Zhile also listened to Mr. Qi's lectures a few years ago, and she discovered that people who listened to Mr. Qi's lectures too much have this stink problem. Gu Hanshu is like this, and so is Shen Zhiyun. When will this bad atmosphere be... to stop!
"How can you mix the water and flour in your head without knocking?"

"A short way."

Li Zhile made a grimace and ran away, and the four waitresses hurriedly followed, walking in a hurry, like a gust of wind.

What a big battle...

Staying where she was, Shen Zhiyun had the urge to hold his forehead and sigh.

And Shen Huiyi on the table quietly watched the movement of the pavilion.

Princess Zhile loves to have fun, and always goes to various banquets, but Shen Zhiyun is a troublesome person who rarely comes to such banquets.

Therefore, Shen Huiyi didn't know that the relationship between Princess Zhile and Shen Zhiyun was so good?

Thinking back to Gu Shizi who borrowed Princess Zhile to talk to him just now, it seems that he and the princess are very skilled...

Then I felt that letting Shen Zhiyun read the joke was like a shave on the face, which was so hot that it made people feel depressed and short of breath.

Here, Gu Hanshu looked at Shen Zhiyun who quietly sat next to him, and asked in surprise, "Why are you sitting here?"

Shen Zhiyun sat down expressionlessly, "Mrs. Qi drove me over."

Gu Hanshu's seats are all the sons of princes and princes from aristocratic families, including those who serve in the imperial court, some who study and test scholars, and some who are playboys.

No matter who it is, they are extremely surprised to see Shen Zhiyun sitting in front of Gu Hanshu.

Didn't it mean that these two people have different political views and are not conspiring with each other?
But the playboys are very happy. Before Shen Zhiyun entered the academy, he spent money and money with them, and did a lot of stupid things.

It is said that the friendship between them was the deepest when they were young, and they rounded up Shen Zhiyun's childhood.

Later, Shen Zhiyun studied the imperial examinations, became an official and took power, and the bloody storm in the court took the lives of many families in his hands.

Who dares to be presumptuous in front of him like before, wouldn't he take the initiative to sacrifice his life to provide others with political achievements.

But now they are sitting together again, there are people who are close to each other, and people who are bitter and mean.

They are all spoiled children of aristocratic families, and how many of them can understand the importance of each person in the court.

"Brother Shen is busy with government affairs, so he hasn't compose poetry with us for several years."

"You just have fun when you have fun, what are you doing talking about writing poetry, can you write poetry?" Someone laughed and joked.

"Master Shen became famous when he was young, so he is naturally different from us."

A person staggered to Shen Zhiyun's side and poured her a glass of wine, the glass was so full that it was about to overflow.

"There is a world of difference between those who rely on their own ability to conduct scientific research and those of us who are secretly entrusted with official positions."

"Everyone walks in his own way, and they all walk the one they can choose, what's the difference?" Shen Zhiyun calmly avoided the man's hand on her shoulder.

"It's still different. You are promoted quickly, and you are favored by His Majesty. We are all drunkards and fools with positions. We can't learn Master Shen's methods."

These words trampled on the descendants of the aristocratic family, but this person himself is also a descendant of the aristocratic family, and this is where Yin Yang Shen Zhiyun's official position came from.

Shen Zhiyun smiled, "You can say it yourself, who are you, who is you like you, Gu Shizi was also entrusted to the official position, and I have never seen a small officer in the city defense like you, and I haven't seen a promotion in three years .”

This person is the youngest son of the Earl's Mansion, and his older brothers and sisters are all very good. When he was brought up to him, he began to indulge him, so he raised a half useless.

He actually thought that Shen Zhiyun was someone from a family like him who could find trouble.

Even though he is the son of the earl's mansion, Shen Zhiyun is now the second assistant of the cabinet, even the earl should give her face.

This person drank a little wine, and the words he said were out of order.

Shen Pingshan is the servant of the household department of the third rank, Shen Zhiyun and the second assistant, the Shen family is now in full swing, what is the difference from the earl's palace.

As soon as Shen Zhiyun took his seat, someone with no eyesight came to make him unhappy, and the atmosphere was a bit grim, so someone came to warm up the scene.

"Haha Zisheng drank too much and started talking nonsense. Brother Shen, don't bother with him, let's continue with ours."

It was Erlang from the He family who spoke, and while he was talking, he called out to the servant to lift Wei Zi out.

"Who is drunk? He Changhua, don't..."

Shen Zhiyun raised his eyes to look at the troublemaker, his eyes were calm, without any disturbance.

That Wei Zisheng seemed to have suddenly sobered up, and without any resistance, he walked along the steps and said that he would go to the side room to rest.

After the rioters left the stage, all the talents became active again, and they all talked about their own things.

Gu Hanshu tapped Shen Zhiyun's full cup of wine with his fingers, and the wine overflowed half of the cup, spilled on the silk cloth and made him dizzy.

"What are you doing?" Shen Zhiyun said in a bad tone.

"When do you plan to leave Beijing to run school affairs?"

"What? Have you agreed to open a mutual market in Hanhai?"

"What do you think, how is it possible."

"Whenever His Majesty approves the mutual market, I will run the school field."

Gu Hanshu leaned back and leaned on the back of the chair, "Then don't think about it, if that's the case, it would be more convenient for me to run a school field."

When the table was almost ready, Shen Zhiyun invited Bai Bian.

Leaning over to whisper a few words in his ear, Bai Bian hurriedly recited them silently, went to find a pen and ink to write it down on paper, and handed it to the maidservant next to Princess Zhile.

Li Zhile got the poem, his brows were brimming with joy, and he blinked at Shen Zhiyun through the crowd.

Gu Hanshu saw it and asked, "What did you ask Bai Bian to give Zhile?"

"Guess." Shen Zhiyun spoke lazily.

Gu Hanshu thought for a while and said, "Don't get too close to Zhile."

"why?"

"I'm afraid she has feelings for you, so don't miss her."

After hearing this, Shen Zhiyun bent his eyes and smiled.

"Speak out."

Gu Hanshu said seriously again, "Don't take it seriously, I mean it's really possible."

"Relax 1 times, it's impossible."

Shen Zhiyun's words are certain, and Gu Hanshu knows her temperament, so he must be very certain.

"You two, what are you talking about behind my back?" Gu Hanshu narrowed his eyes slightly.

Shen Zhiyun still said the same thing, "Guess."

She looked at the lively Xian Yi Erlang over there, and the person in charge took out the poem topic that had been ordered a long time ago from the red box, and shouted out.

It was quiet for a moment, and then it became noisy and started a discussion. Those with quick minds had already bowed their heads and meditated.

Several people are already eager to try, just wait for one person to start the poem, and then they will compete to compete for the top.

Looking at Li Zhile who was looking around repeatedly on tiptoe under the rockery, he thought of Gu Hanshu's worries.

Couldn't help laughing out loud.

Of course she was quite sure.

It's just that the reason cannot be explained, because she did a very hurtful thing to Gu Hanshu, and she felt very guilty.
