After crossing the stone arch bridge, Qin Yiming saw that there were many Confucian scholars in the pavilion in front of him, who seemed to be drinking and chanting poetry, and when Qin Yiming saw Chen Yunze and Li Guohao, he felt that something was about to happen.

"Congratulations to Lord Qin, congratulations to Lord Qin, Lord Qin is the top martial artist in high school today, I am envious of the other students, please Lord Qin get off the horse and have a drink?" Chen Yunze stood in front of the horse and said with a smile.

Before Qin Yiming could speak, the eunuch of the inner court said angrily: "Ignorant calf, do you know that this is a royal horse, retreat quickly, otherwise you can't afford to eat it." ”

"This father-in-law, we are gathering today, drinking and chanting poems, and I met Lord Qin riding a royal horse to parade the streets, it was really a chance encounter, on a whim, I want to let today's champion Lang chant a poem, if it is spread in the future, wouldn't it be a beautiful talk?!" Chen Yunze quibbled.

The eunuch of the inner court said angrily: "Hmph, it is your liberal arts scholar's business to write poetry, Lord Qin is the champion of martial arts, what kind of poetry do you chant?" Don't retreat yet. ”

Chen Yunze couldn't continue to resist, but he was not willing to give up, so he said: "What my father-in-law said is reasonable, I am not reluctant, I just want to fulfill Lord Qin's good story today, if Lord Qin does not dare to agree, then forget it." ”

After Chen Yunze's words were finished, the students all showed a look of contempt, which made the father-in-law of the inner court want to say but it is difficult to speak.

"Wait, forget about poetry, this situation and this scene are beautiful, Qin is a shallow learner, why don't you come up with a puzzle for everyone to learn poetry and books, how about a pastime for talented people who are rich and rich?" Qin Yiming said with a smile.

Chen Yunze listened to the poetry and books, and felt that he was provoking, so he said: "Very good." ”

Qin Yiming knew that there were many temples in Xicheng, but he didn't know that there was a Daming Temple, and he didn't know what this lake was called now.

The lake and the temple, the scenery is naturally very beautiful, which makes people feel peaceful and peaceful.

"One person is dignified, two are the same light, one foot deep, point to the ice, the two are connected, do not owe one side, three beams and four pillars are burning, except for the double hook for two days." Qin Yiming said slowly.

"One person is dignified, and two are the same light? What word? ”

"Going to the ice is a water word!" A Xuan Sheng guessed a word and shouted with joy. But there are still a few words that I don't have a clue about.

Everyone was lost in thought.

"Father-in-law, let's go, don't disturb them." Qin Yiming said with a smile.

"Literati, phew!" The father-in-law of the inner court led the horse and continued to walk.

Chongzhen's message soon spread. The emperor has a banquet, who dares not to go? There are a total of forty-three important ministers and giants in the court, and Kang Yingyuan of the Kang family is also among them, so exciting, the ministers feel weird, but these giants are very excited, this kind of thing is simply a glorious lintel, they all feel that they are stained with Qin Yiming's light!

Inside the silver number of the Jingshi Kangjia.

Kang Shiyuan was very excited, on weekdays, he also stammered the sons of those high-ranking officials, so he felt extremely honored, but now he had the opportunity to enter the palace, because the father-in-law who sent the message made it very clear that the emperor wanted to drink freely with everyone, in order to prevent someone from drinking too much and no one took care of him, each person could bring a family member to accompany him, that is to say, he could go to the Forbidden City with his brother.

"Qin Yiming, this bastard is really capable, the emperor also personally set up a banquet in Honglu Temple, what a great honor this is, big brother, tomorrow the emperor's banquet, I will accompany my eldest brother!" Kang Shiyuan pleaded.

Kang Yingyuan looked at his younger brother, who was not a weapon, and shook his head for a while, he was extremely tolerant of his younger brother, after all, he was a brother, the eldest brother was like a father, and he had the responsibility to take care of his younger brother.

"Okay, you choose a simple dress, and come to the banquet with me tomorrow!" Kang Yingyuan was a little worried in his heart, this emperor's behavior was quite abnormal, making him a little unsteady, just a martial artist, so exciting, it was too abnormal, the emperor is now diligent and thrifty every day, and his life is simple, he has heard people say that the emperor has not been so extravagant for a long time, and there must be demons when things go wrong.

Kang Shiyuan is not happy, this is not easy to enter the imperial city once, and he has to wear old clothes, isn't it embarrassing?

"Big brother, I have a lot of brocade and silk, why do I have to wear so plain and inappropriately dressed, in front of the emperor, it is a loss of honor in front of the palace, it is a big crime!"

Kang Yingyuan shook his head, not knowing when his younger brother would be mature and steady, and explained: "Shiyuan, don't you think it's strange that this emperor suddenly invited a banquet to his ministers and us lowly businessmen? ”

"What's so strange? It was said that it was that bastard who won the martial arts, and the emperor won the general, so he lost his mind and went crazy, not surprising. Kang Shiyuan disagreed.

"Then Qin Yiming High School, the banquet should also invite those civil and military ministers, why invite us to go! I'm afraid it's the drunkard's intention not to be in the bar. Kang Yingyuan was deeply worried.

"What does the eldest brother mean is that the emperor wants to take this opportunity to let us donate?" Kang Shiyuan asked in surprise.

"I'm afraid so."

"Then donate some, donate one or two hundred thousand taels, it's not a big problem, and you can please in front of the emperor, right?" Kang Shiyuan said briskly.

"Bastard! All this money is saved by us little by little, why donate, you still donate 120,000 yuan, this is the beginning, and the court will not worry about our Kang family in the future, suck up our Kang family! Kang Yingyuan scolded angrily.

Kang Shiyuan was scolded by his eldest brother like this, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak, but he was muttering in his heart: When I was talking to those ministers on weekdays, tens of thousands of taels were spent, so why couldn't I donate silver to the emperor!

The next day, Kang Shiyuan followed his eldest brother to the Forbidden City Donghua Gate in high spirits, to Kang Shiyuan's disappointment, he did not see the emperor with his own eyes, because they were blocked out of the Donghua Gate, the guards did not allow them to enter the imperial city, and the guards only allowed those family heads and ministers to enter.

After entering the imperial city, everyone was seated, Chongzhen and the queen also came out, what made Kang Yingyuan unhappy was that this Qin Yiming was also in the seat, although it was inevitable to see Qin Yiming.

Just like Kang Yingyuan, all the giants are dressed very plainly, and those ministers are also dressed shabbyly, and everyone seems to think that Chongzhen is looking for them for money, and they are very vigilant.

Looking at these people, Chongzhen was extremely angry in his heart, all of them were the masters of the family, but they were so capable of pretending, they were afraid that they would ask for money, which was really hateful. However, he has already developed the ability to be moody and unremarkable.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today's banquet is for Daming to get a general, I have an extra arm, and I accidentally tasted a good wine, this wine is offered by Qin Aiqing, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy, please come today, there is nothing to do, just to taste wine!" Chongzhen said, giving Wang Chengen a look.

Wang Chengen shouted: "Give wine!" ”

A group of palace maids rushed out, each holding a pot of wine in their hands, standing behind those high-ranking officials and giants, and then began to pour wine.

Everyone was relieved at this time, it turned out that they were really just drinking. This Qin Yiming came from that small place in De'an, what good wine can he have, is this wine better than Jingshi's daughter? Many people looked at Qin Yiming with doubts on their faces.

"I drink this cup with all of you!" Chongzhen picked up the wine glass and dried it up.

Queen Wang said worriedly on the side: "Your Majesty, don't be greedy for cups, beware of the dragon body!" ”

Chongzhen leaned close to Queen Wang's ear and whispered, "Don't worry, Queen, I have water in this cup!" ”

Queen Wang was shocked, what happened to the emperor today? It's already unusual to set up a drinking banquet, and now you've learned this trick? Isn't this the method used by the little people in the market?

Those high-ranking officials and giants, who don't like to drink two cups during the banquet, are all good for this one, when they are defenseless and do it in one gulp, everyone's expressions are bright, and their eyes are as wide as copper coins, some of them also inhale sharply, and some people are so spicy that they can't open their eyes.

Queen Wang looked at these people who usually behaved steadily and behaved elegantly, all of them had extremely strange expressions, they were simply disgraced in front of the palace, she was extremely curious in her heart, she even wanted to take a bite.

Chongzhen looked at the expressions of the people below one by one, and couldn't help laughing, those ministers, one by one, looked embarrassed, didn't know how to deal with themselves, but seeing the strange expressions of others, they also made fun of each other, this laughter, the stiff atmosphere began to change.

"Your Majesty, can you give another cup?" Huang Daozhou first opened his mouth to ask, Chen Xinjia, Zhang Zhifa, Li Jiantai and other important ministers looked at Chongzhen expectantly, hoping that he could reward him with another cup.

Chongzhen smiled and said, "Huang Aiqing also likes this wine? Haha, it's rare! Zhong Aiqing rest assured, this kind of good wine is rare, in Wuchang twenty taels of silver a cup, in the Jingshi Yuebei Restaurant, it is thirty taels of a glass, I still have several jars here, no one is allowed to leave if the wine is not drunk today. ”

Some of these ministers know, some don't, but they also pretend to know more than that, thirty taels of glasses, who dares to say that they have drunk it, but the wine must be good wine.

"Good wine, quick, another drink!" Li Jiantai urged out the palace maid and said.

This high-strength wine is indeed very popular, and everyone will soon be **, and those who can't drink it are persuaded by each other to drink one by one, and they can't drink it and follow it.

Li Jiantai felt that he was almost there, so he stopped, Chongzhen looked at the thief, and raised his glass to Li Jiantai and said, "Lord Li, I heard that your son will get married in a few days, I congratulate you first." Chongzhen's cup is dry. Li Jiantai felt extremely honored and followed suit.

Looking at these people, the corners of Qin Yiming's mouth showed a hint of evil smile.

Kang Shiyuan waited outside the Forbidden City for more than two hours, and suddenly the palace gate opened, and a eunuch sent people out.

"Where is Lord Wang's family?" The father-in-law shouted to the family.

A man immediately ran forward and replied, "Yes, father-in-law, I am Lord Wang's boy." ”

"Lord Wang Yongguang sympathized with the emperor, and said during the banquet that he would donate 30,000 taels of silver, you can remember!" The eunuch said.

At this time, Wang Yongguang, who was so drunk, shouted: "Yes, 30,000 taels, 30,000 taels!" ”

The boy's face was ugly, but he still replied respectfully: "Father-in-law, the boy remembers!" Wang Gongzi helped his father into the carriage, and Wang Yongguang kept shouting 30,000 taels, 30,000 taels.

When Kang Yingyuan was helped out, he was also drunk, and shouted: "Two hundred thousand taels, two hundred thousand taels!" ”

Before Kang Shiyuan waited for the bus agent, he spoke first: "Father-in-law, I understand, my Kang family is willing to donate 200,000 taels!" ”

The father-in-law nodded, then turned to help the next one.
