Happy Little Scholar

Chapter 377 Why are you here?

It is said that enemies always meet on narrow roads, and you will always have to pay back for what you have done. This time, they ran into someone else's home court, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. Tianlai Novel

Fortunately, the corner where Li Yi and Ruyi were was remote and hidden enough, and Cui Yanxin seemed to have been paying attention to the King of Shu, and did not see him.

His eyes moved away from Cui Yanxin, and suddenly he felt something in his heart, and vaguely felt that a pair of eyes fell on him.

Li Yi looked up and saw a familiar face in the front position diagonally opposite.

If he remembered correctly, the young man who looked like a scholar was named Chen Licheng, and he was from the Duke of Chen's Mansion. Just a few days ago, under the plum tree of Hanshan Temple, he was also tit-for-tat with him, and finally Li Xuan's guard broke the legs of his servants. It can be said that he had a lot of conflicts with him.

It was a mistake to come to the banquet invited by the King of Shu tonight. He only had a few enemies in the capital, and he met almost all of them...

The King of Shu held a wine glass, stood in front of the crowd, and said: "Thank you all for giving me face and coming to the banquet of the palace. This first glass of wine, I will drink it first as a respect."

This sentence is of course polite. I would like to ask, among the young talents in Kyoto, who dares not to give face to the King of Shu except Li Xuan?

No one would like to offend the future emperor. Due to their status, perhaps their families cannot have official exchanges with the King of Shu on the surface, but the relationship between the younger generations has always been ambiguous. On this point, whether they are firm supporters of the King of Shu or not, the decisions they make are generally the same.

There is nothing wrong in making friends with the King of Shu, and you have to leave a way out for your family.

After the King of Shu drank a glass of wine first, the atmosphere in the venue became heated.

Eating, drinking and having fun were the main themes of the banquet. Some people took this opportunity to reconnect with old friends, and some people talked quietly with the King of Shu, smiling, smiling, and spitting, which made the King of Shu nod his head repeatedly ------ secretly, I don't know what kind of improper transactions were going on.

The dancers in the venue had already left, leaving a group of men, whispering and rubbing their ears. Those who knew thought it was the King of Shu's banquet, and those who didn't thought they had come to a large gay dating party...

Li Yi was different. Although Miss Liu was not very willing to talk and rubbing her ears was impossible, she was beautiful. If she glanced at him, her mood would inexplicably improve, right?

Li Yi was in a good mood, but some people were in a bad mood, and Cui Yanxin was one of them.

As a newly-minted Jinshi and a descendant of the Cui family, although he is only a branch of the family, under the influence of the Cui family, he can seek a better job and wait for a few more years of experience. Not to mention that he can wait for a bright future, it is much better than being unemployed at home now.

It was just because he looked down on a lowly actor in the Ning Wang Mansion. Why did a newly-minted Jinshi end up like this?

Cui Yanxin certainly knew why he ended up like this. He did not dare to hate the Ning Wang, the Ministry of Personnel, and of course, the current emperor.

He only hated the hateful Anxi County Lieutenant, who forced himself to stand up for the lowly actor, making him lose face that night. Until now, the hat of "forcing sorrow to compose new lyrics" is still firmly on his head, which has become a lifelong shame.

It is not a gentleman to not take revenge for this, but not now. Cui Yanxin gritted his teeth. What he has to do now is to follow His Royal Highness the King of Shu closely and use all his skills to gain His Royal Highness's attention.

When His Majesty ascends the throne, he will certainly not treat him badly. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Besides, everyone knows that His Majesty's physical condition will definitely not last another ten years. By then, the humiliation he has suffered must be returned a hundredfold and a thousandfold.

"Hello, Mr. Cui!"

Cui Yanxin raised his glass and frequently exchanged empty greetings with the people around him. They were all related to the Cui family to some extent, and they were also people around the King of Shu. His status naturally rose. To a certain extent, the Ning Wang Mansion incident was not completely without benefit to him.

The people in the King of Shu Mansion tonight were all real upper-class figures in the capital. If he could make friends with one more person, he would have one more way out in the future. Cui Yanxin's eyes swept through the hall. Suddenly, his body was startled, and his face showed an unbelievable look.

"It's him, how could it be... Impossible, how could he be here!"

Cui Yanxin shook his head violently, driving the unrealistic idea out of his mind.

That hateful guy is the county lieutenant of Anxi. He should be in Qing'an Prefecture now. How could he appear in the capital and at the banquet of the King of Shu? It must be that his hatred for him is too strong, which has caused hallucinations.

Cui Yanxin took a sip of wine, and after his eyes swept through the crowd again, the hateful face appeared in his sight again.

"Puff!"

He sprayed out all the wine that he hadn't swallowed in time.

A person who passed by Cui Yanxin was lucky enough to enjoy a wine bath. He wiped his face, and the anger on his face didn't have time to appear. He saw that the person opposite him was even angrier than him, and strode towards the corner.

"What are you looking at?" No matter how calm she was, she couldn't stand being stared at for so long. Liu Ruyi turned around and glared at Li Yi fiercely, saying.

"Stingy, you won't lose a piece of meat if you look more." Li Yi curled his lips. Miss Liu Er always had a cold appearance on weekdays, giving people a mature and cold feeling, but in fact she was only just over ten years old. She is seven years old, and her face is so tender that you can pinch it with water. It is full of collagen. When you look at her carefully, you can see the childishness under the cold appearance.

He was a little curious. Logically speaking, even if the personalities of two people who grew up in the same environment were different, they would not be so different. How did Ruyi develop a tigress-like personality like Ruyi and Miss Liu Er? What about?

Out of curiosity about this issue, I originally wanted to interview her, but after thinking about it carefully, I gave up the idea.

If she knew that he compared her to a tigress, Li Yi couldn't guarantee that he would be able to go back intact tonight.

"How will you be here!"

At this moment, a voice of suppressed anger came from the front. Li Yi turned his head and happened to see Cui Yanxin gritting his teeth.

Unable to escape his own embarrassment, Li Yi looked up at him and asked, "Why can't I be here?"

He was secretly depressed. He had a conflict with Cui Yanxin because the other party bullied his friend in front of him, and he was forced to copy poems and slap him in the face. Why did he keep biting him?

People often say that meeting an old friend in a foreign country should be one of the four great joys in life. I don't ask him to put this matter on the same level as the wedding night, but he won't be so unfriendly as soon as they meet, right?

Although Cui Yanxin is only a small subordinate official in the Prince of Shu's palace, who is the Prince of Shu and who among the people around him dares to underestimate him? He might be a high-ranking official in the court in two years. Therefore, his actions Every movement attracted the attention of many people present.

The young scholar sitting next to Li Yi was slightly startled when he saw this, and then his face showed joy, knowing that his opportunity had come.

He suddenly stood up from his seat, pointed at Li Yi and said, "Yes, people like this who disrespect His Highness the King of Shu have no right to sit here."

Cui Yanxin looked at him, and the young man immediately spoke, adding words of jealousy, "This gentleman is unaware of something. Just now..."

Li Yi rubbed his eyebrows. When it comes to talents, the King of Shu really does not reject anyone. He said that if the person next to him was a storyteller, he would definitely have a much better future than studying.

He quietly watched the young man spitting, Cui Yanxin's face was gloomy, and he glanced at him occasionally, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire. Several people around him had noticed something strange here, with doubts. Looking over...
