The invitation that others were jealous of was like a hot potato in Zhu Pingan's hands. If possible, Zhu Pingan really wanted to give this invitation to others.
Let's not talk about Ouyang Zishi. Just thinking about the way Miss Yan Er threw her shoes on the second floor facing the street when she praised her officials on the imperial street is definitely enough to make her walk around without food.
If Miss Yan Er told Yan Song or Yan Shifan that she accidentally spied on her taking a bath... But in this feudal society, girls attach great importance to honor and integrity, and Miss Yan Er probably wouldn't say anything. Yes.
However, what if I tell you?
It's so sour and refreshing that I can't even imagine it.
By the way, it's not too late to get "drunk" now, well, I guess it's too late, I've already accepted the invitations. Based on the behavior of the fat man Yan Shifan who invited him to a banquet at Zhuangyuan Tower last time, it is estimated that even if he was really drunk, he would be carried to Yan's Mansion.
It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided. Helpless, Zhu Ping'an had no choice but to say goodbye to Zhang Siwei, asked him to take good care of Wang Shizhen, and then went to Yan's Mansion with others.
The scale of Yan's small enrong banquet was smaller than that of the big enrong banquet because the number of people was much smaller, about thirty people in total. In addition to Zhu Ping'an, nine other newly promoted Jinshi were invited, and the rest of the people in the Yan Mansion were all officials.
There are more than one person Zhu Ping'an knows here. One is Zhang Juzheng, whom he met at Xu Jie's house, and the other is the Feiyu uniform Jinyiwei who he met shortly after arriving in the capital and is responsible for handling the money bag dispute. It seems that his companion is called He experienced it deeply.
By the way, isn’t it true that Mr. Shen disliked Yan Song very much? At that time, he even called Yan Song the number one person to die, mocking Yan Song as saying, “When you look at Prime Minister Yan, you must use rich people.” Why did he come to attend Yan Song’s small favor banquet? Here it comes.
Also, who is the middle-aged man wearing a bullfight uniform sitting in front of this experienced Shen? I have to say that this man is really eye-catching. He is tall, his skin seems to be like a ball of fire, and his face is also dark red. I feel that Guan Yu from the Three Kingdoms period just had this skin color.
This small enrong banquet is for Yan Song. In fact, it was Yan Shifan who was responsible.
Yan Song showed his nakedness at the beginning, said congratulations to Zhu Ping'an and others, and said a few words to the officials present to excuse himself from feeling unwell. He handed over the hosting of the banquet to his son Yan Shifan.
"Mr. Lu, I still have something to ask Mr. Lu. I wonder if I can move here in my honor?" Before Yan Song left, he walked up to the middle-aged man in a bullfight suit and asked.
"Master Yan, you're welcome. Master Yan has something to do. There's no need to ask for advice. Lu knows that I won't say anything and I won't stop talking." The middle-aged man in a bullfight uniform smiled slightly, stood up and bowed his hand to Yan Song.
After the two whispered a few words to each other, the man in the bullfight uniform left the banquet with Yan Song.
When he heard Yan Song call the middle-aged man in bullfight uniform, Mr. Lu, Zhu Pingan vaguely guessed the identity of the middle-aged man in bullfight uniform.
Wearing a bullfight uniform, the man with the last name Lu sat next to him was Jin Yiwei. At a glance, he knew that he was closely related to Jin Yiwei, and at least he had a much higher position than Shen. It can be seen from Yan Song's attitude towards him just now.
In the Jiajing Dynasty, the only person with the surname Lu who was related to the Jinyiwei and had a high position was Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyiwei. Lu Bing, this is another great person in history. It is said that Lu Bing got close to Yan Song and his son during the process of dealing with Xia Yan, and the relationship has been good since then, and it seems that this is indeed the case now.
"Chunfu, you can go back on your own after the banquet. You don't have to wait for me." Lu Bing said to the guard in Feiyu uniform before he left. He didn't seem to be surprised at all by Yan Song's invitation just now.
Chunfu?
Shen Chunfu?
Zhu Ping'an heard Lu Bing call him Jinyiwei. I was stunned on the spot. Shen Chunfu, isn't this your sister Shen Lian? ! Besides Yang Jisheng, Shen Lian was the more famous person who impeached Yan Song in the Ming Dynasty.
According to historical records, Shen Lian was born as a Jinshi. He had served as a county magistrate and a royal guard. He was upright and hated evil, and was highly appreciated by Lu Bing. It was probably because of Lu Bing's appreciation that Shen Lian was invited to attend the banquet of the Yan Mansion.
In fact, you can understand it if you think about it. Shen Lian was born as a Jinshi, and he was outstanding among the Jinyiwei. He wrote manuscripts, made case files, and so on. Who among the Jinyiwei could compare to Shen Lian, who was born as a Jinshi. He was undoubtedly outstanding in the Jinyiwei system and could be appreciated by Lu Bing. It's understandable, not to mention that Lu Bing appreciates scholars.
After Yan Song and Lu Bing left, Yan Shifan hosted the small favor banquet. Because Zhu Ping'an was the number one scholar, his seat at this banquet was also arranged to be at the front of the table with Yan Shifan and the others.
It was fine at first, but after three rounds of drinking, things got a little out of control. The source of the loss of control was Yan Shifan.
After Yan Shifan drank for three rounds, he let go, shouted for six drinks, and made a loud voice. He often asked people to drink. He had no restraint and was particularly lacking in quality.
The first one to bear the brunt was Zhu Pingan.
"Come, let's toast our champion." Yan Shifan sat on his seat, stretched out his fat hand like a pig's trotter, pointed at Zhu Pingan, and suggested to everyone at the same table.
"Good." Everyone at the table responded one after another.
Then Zhu Pingan had to drink a glass of wine. He had no choice but to drink in front of everyone. After drinking, Zhu Ping'an relaxed a little. From now on, it seems that Miss Yan Er did not tell Yan Song and his son that she accidentally spied on her taking a bath. This is good news.
"Zi Hou, I am very happy to win the No. 1 Scholarship in Enke in my weak year. Now that I think about it, the last time I tried my best with you in the No. 1 Scholar Building, it was a good sign that I got the No. 1 Scholar Prize. What do you think?" Yan Shifan shouted. After drinking, he put a piece of venison in his mouth and chewed it. He looked at Zhu Pingan and asked.
"Of course, I am safe. Thank you, Mr. Yan."
Zhu Ping'an slightly arched his hands, smiling on his face, but in his heart he cursed, "How shameless... You have the nerve to say that, how can you walk so vigorously from morning to late at night?" Not to mention, the firecrackers at the Wei Guogong Mansion next door were blaring all night long. Sleeping was simply impossible. If it weren’t for the ginseng that Li Shu asked Baozi’s maid to give to her in the exam the next day, she wouldn’t have even cried during the exam. .
But in the end, Ouyang Zishi didn't even get into the first grade, but he won the first prize. This is probably something Yan Shifan didn't expect. The agency was too clever in its calculations, but it cost Qing Qing her life. In fact, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips when he thought about this result. (To be continued.)
