Faced with An Yan's attack, Sheng Changquan did not speak. He just looked at him quietly and stopped.
To be fair, Sheng Changquan didn't believe that An Yan would really fall out with him here.
As a son of a noble family, An Yan, who has been influenced by his family for a long time, cannot just make enemies casually just for a little dispute of temper.
It's not that Sheng Changquan is arrogant and thinks how great his family will be in the eyes of others.
Of course, to ordinary people, he is amazing, but!
The son of Lord Jingguo can still ignore him.
However, you must know that Sheng Changquan's position as Jie Yuan was determined by Academician Zhai Jingnian. If An Yan fell out with him at this cultural meeting, he would not only not care about Sheng Changquan, but also slap Academician Zhai in the face.
Even though Duke Jingguo has a good background, it is unlikely that he will offend the bachelor.
After all, a bachelor's degree is an extremely noble official position, and it is of great sacred significance in the eyes of many literati.
In the field, An Yan didn't seem to notice anything was wrong, but still said wildly: "If you want to convince me, that's easy!"
He raised the wine bottle in his hand and waved it forward.
"As long as you can use the contents of this pot to overwhelm me, I will obey you!"
"Buzz!"
Everyone looked at each other in shock!
"coax!"
As soon as An Yan said these words, the originally silent scene suddenly came to life!
"Haha, it turns out that Mr. An means this!"
"I also have this intention!"
"Yes, I'm not convinced either!"
"Please Sheng Jieyuan please convince me orally!"
"..."
After hearing An Yan's joking words, everyone laughed and joked along.
However, although everyone looked relaxed on their faces, they were also a little depressed in their hearts.
It's like reading "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and seeing Lu Bu - I originally thought he was a brave and invincible general, but I didn't expect that this guy turned out to be a slave with three surnames!
What a disappointment!
"Hahaha, since you all have such a taste, then I will sacrifice my life to accompany you!"
Sheng Changquan raised his eyebrows and secretly thought that it was true.
"You guys drink a lot!"
Sheng Changquan toasted to invite him.
"please!"
Everyone raised their glasses together and replied.
Of course, these people do not include Li Yancheng.
"Eh? Brother Li, why don't you drink?"
After everyone finished drinking, An Yan saw that Li Yancheng was not moving, especially when he saw Li Yancheng's expression was stunned and the corners of his mouth twitched, as if he was abnormal. He deliberately pointed it out and said loudly: "But this drink is not suitable for Brother Li." appetite?"
"If so, why not try the cup of sweet-scented osmanthus wine in front of me?"
“This wine goes into your throat softly and has a long-lasting aftertaste, but it’s really good!”
An Yan squinted his eyes and looked at Li Yancheng with a smile, his eyes full of teasing.
"Huh? No! No need!"
Li Yancheng swayed at first, then quickly regained his composure, and even his expression calmed down.
Because An Yan's voice was not quiet, Li Yancheng moved very quickly. Before everyone turned their attention, he took the wine glass in front of him and drank it down.
After a long time, he replied with a smile: "Thank you Mr. An for your concern. I'm just a little distracted and a little drunk."
"Oh, that's how it is!"
An Yan smiled slightly and expressed understanding.
However, An Yan's smile was somewhat interesting. He glanced sideways at Li Yancheng and raised the corners of his mouth inexplicably.
——"Young man, you still want to use me as a gun user? Do you really think I'm some kind of idiot?"
But Li Yancheng, who accepted An Yan's strange look, remained "unmoved" and just lowered his eyes silently, treating it indifferently, as if he really didn't know anything.
However, the hands he folded into his sleeves betrayed him.
After all, the clenched fist was so hard that the edges of the sleeves bulged out!
"Hahaha! Let's give Brother Sheng another drink!"
An Yan shook his head and walked towards Sheng Changquan with a big smile.
An Yan seems to be informal, but in fact he is a refined person. His words are bold and rough, but inside he has quietly become closer to Sheng Changquan, changing from Sheng Jieyuan to Sheng brother.
…
As for the final outcome of this battle, it is also obvious.
Although Sheng Changquan smelled of alcohol, he finally came back sober.
Of course, at the cultural conference, it was impossible for everyone to really target him alone and let him drink the whole place. However, Sheng Changquan still blocked the main firepower.
Therefore, his massive "not drunk after a thousand cups" finally became famous in the literary society and won unanimous praise from everyone.
As for not being convinced, there is nothing we can do about it, because there was still Li Yancheng at the cultural conference.
This guy won't be convinced even if he is beaten to death.
It is worth mentioning that Yuan Shanjian, the husband of the Yuan family, and Lou Ben, the husband of the Lou family, who were also lucky, did not attend this cultural gathering. They seemed to have no intention of getting along with everyone. Regarding this, everyone was unhappy, but they also Nothing can be done.
Sheng Changquan guessed that these two people might not participate in the upcoming examinations, or even the next few examinations.
"It seems that these aristocratic families in Henan Province are preparing to become officials after the situation becomes clear." Sheng Changquan said secretly.
…
After Sheng Changquan told Aunt Wei and Minglan something about the cultural meeting, the three of them dispersed.
And Aunt Wei only stayed at the Sheng family for one night and then returned to the Jiang family courtyard. It seemed that she still didn't want to stay in the Sheng family for a long time, and she didn't want to be said that she took advantage of the Sheng family.
Bisha cabinet.
After telling Xiaotao and others to go out to play, Minglan stayed alone in the room quietly. She casually picked up the embroidery next to her and embroidered while thinking to herself.
"wrong!"
"Auntie's attitude this time is completely different!"
"There must be something wrong here!"
Although Aunt Wei repeatedly insisted that what happened back then was just a misunderstanding, Minglan still didn't want to believe it. Her intuition told her that something was wrong.
"correct!"
suddenly!
Minglan remembered the letter Aunt Wei had written before.
After thinking about the letter, Minglan quickly put down her work and got up to find the letter.
"Xiaodie..."
Looking at the content written above, especially when Aunt Wei said she was surprised after finding Xiaodie, everything was filled between the lines.
"No! No!"
Minglan shook her head, her eyes becoming more and more certain: "Auntie must be lying to me!"
"If that matter was really just a misunderstanding, how could my aunt say that she would bring Sister Xiaodie to Bianjing to meet me?"
"Besides, the surprise between the lines is completely inappropriate!"
Minglan sat back in her seat suddenly, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was correct.
"If it were really like what my aunt said, then there would be no way that she would be so happy in her letter. It should be... regret and loss!"
After looking down at the contents of the letter again, Minglan was finally sure. She closed her eyes: "So, aunt doesn't want... to let me know?"
Recalling what happened that year, especially the worried look in Wei Shuyi's eyes before he died, Minglan's heart felt like a knife.
"Little girl..."
Then, a tear slowly left the corner of Minglan's eyes.
"Little girl..."
"I will never let you go in this matter!"
Instead of being cautious and reserved in the past, Minglan now had a stern look on her face!
…
