Tang Xie came up to give Ji Ning a generous gift, which still made Ji Ning feel unblessed.

Western women are not very beautiful, although the blonde hair and blue eyes are a little special, but even if they stay by their side, it will make Ji Ning feel very eyesore, and when she is about to get married, it is always inconvenient to keep such a woman by her side.

"Brother Tang's kindness is understood, but you better take this woman away first, it's always a trouble for me to stay by my side......" Ji Ning said with a sigh.

Tang Xie looked a little embarrassed, the gift he had painstakingly prepared for Ji Ning, Ji Ning still refused to accept it, and he could only compensate Ji Ning in other ways, he smiled: "Yongning, you refuse to accept this gift, how can you be reluctant in the future?" The people still took it away first, and looked back to see how to deal with it, this Western woman still has some market in the Dayong Dynasty, haha......"

He first asked people to take the Western woman away, and then he came back and sat down to continue drinking with Ji Ning, after the two drank for a long time, Tang Xie suddenly seemed to think: "Yongning, in fact, you don't come to the court as an official, it's a pity, you can wait for old age to enter the Confucian Temple, in fact, many people choose this way, it is easy to enter the Confucian Temple, but it is difficult to leave the Confucian Temple." ”

Ji Ning smiled and asked, "Is it really easy to enter the Temple of Literature?" ”

"Haha, of course, it is very difficult to enter the Temple of Literature with such knowledge, but you are different, with your knowledge, it should be easy to enter the Temple of Literature...... Yongning, after drinking today, they will go back to rest first, and there will be another one in the evening, this time I plan to introduce you to two friends, both from the south, and you should have a common language. ”

After Tang Xie finished speaking, he continued to persuade him to drink, and Ji Ning also knew that Tang Xie would invite him to drink again in the place of Fengyue in the evening, so he would not drink too much at this banquet, at most he would drink a few glasses, and he would do his best to reunite old friends after a long absence.

……

……

After drinking, Ji Ning came out of the wine shop, Tang Xie drank a little too much, Ji Ning knew that he had just returned to the capital, and he came to drink with him before he even settled down at home, which was enough to see that Tang Xie attached great importance to him.

Tang Xie himself had to go back to settle his family first, and Ji Ning asked He An to take someone to load the things sent by Tang Xie into the carriage before returning home.

In this banquet, Ji Ning didn't mention to Tang Xie that he was going back to Jinling City, and he also felt that Tang Xie had just returned to the capital, and it was a bit embarrassing to raise this matter at this time, and Ji Ning was also afraid that Tang Xie would misunderstand that he was going to Jinling to avoid these old friends, and he couldn't explain why the Temple of Literature suddenly sent him to Jinling.

After going back, Ji Ning took a break, Yu Ling and Lin Juan'er already knew that Ji Ning had injuries at this time, even if they regretted that Ji Ning didn't ask for them, they were still taking care of Ji Ning, and even Yu Ling was still complaining that Ji Ning went out to drink.

“…… I said that I don't have a big deal, look at your fuss, I will be obedient at home, and when I get married, I will take you to Jinling City together. Juan'er, I will also tell your brother to officially marry you into the door, so that you can follow us in the name of righteousness......"

Ji Ning is still very responsible for Yu Ling and Lin Juan'er, and what he said is also very targeted, before Lin Juan'er was still worried that Ji Ning would leave her in the capital if she left like this, and it was difficult to say whether she would have the opportunity to see Ji Ning in the future.

After having Ji Ning's promise, Lin Juan'er's face looked much better, and Yu Ling was also very obsessed with Ji Ning, the two little girls could just see but not pick, which also made Ji Ning somewhat regretful, but he believed that there was basically no problem with his injury, and many things could actually be done naturally.

……

……

That night, after Ji Ning was ready, he took a carriage to Renxian Pavilion, which was also the place where Ji Ning and Tang Xie met to drink together.

Outside the Human Immortal Pavilion, Tang Xie was already waiting, there were two people standing next to Tang Jie, these two looked handsome and hearty, they looked like they were young and talented, one of them had clear eyebrows, Ji Ning seemed to think that this person was likely to be a woman, but he didn't know who it was, and Tang Xie greeted him with a smile.

"Yongning, you weren't late this time, and originally said that if you were late, you would definitely be punished, and you would be fined three glasses of wine. Let me introduce to you, these two people are looking for capable people in Jiangnan, their purpose is to come to the capital to make a difference, and introduce people to you today...... The talents of these two people are not weak, but they have not been able to participate in the imperial examination because of some background or family restrictions, and I want to introduce them to you today. ”

Tang Xie was very enthusiastic and came up to introduce friends to Ji Ning, but Ji Ning was actually about to leave the capital at this time, embarrassed by his current status, and he didn't want to know any friends.

Tang Xie introduced the two to Ji Ning one by one, one of the taller names is Lianchenghe, the word Zhuheng, and the name Liu Liang, who is shorter and shorter than Ji Ning, is suspected of being a woman, and the word is Huai.

After the two of them saluted Ji Ning, Ji Ning also returned the salute, although he himself is a bachelor of the Confucian Temple, but in terms of making friends, he does not have any secular high and low prejudices, and he is still very polite in terms of etiquette.

"Yongning, Zhuheng, Zhonghuai, today is rare to get together, we will go upstairs, today must be to drink the best wine, but also to appreciate the most beautiful beauty, if you have the ability, you can also enjoy the service of the most gentle woman here tonight, it depends on your own, I can provide the silver, the ability depends on yourself......"

When Tang explained this, Ji Ning was deliberately looking at Liu Liang's reaction, although Liu Liang looked a little like a woman, but it seemed that his eyes lit up when he talked about this kind of thing, and he didn't seem to be very shy about this kind of thing.

Ji Ning couldn't judge that this Liu Liang must be a woman, and he didn't think about it anymore, whether it was a man or a woman didn't seem to have much to do with him.

The four of them entered the Renxian Pavilion, the business of the Renxian Pavilion was not very good that day, and there were only one or two tables of guests outside, after Tang Xie went first, there was a woman about forty years old upstairs to greet her, the woman walked with the wind and swayed willows, and came up and said in a very strong Beijing accent: "Yo, where is this guest from?" ”

Because there was a sense of alienation in his words, Tang Xie was very unhappy when he heard it: "What's the matter, Renxian Pavilion has changed owners, or has it changed the old bustard?" ”

The other party spoke politely, and Tang Xie was not polite when he spoke, and the middle-aged woman came down and said with a smile: "This guest officer has a big mouth, but since he has come to the entrance, he is a guest, and he has seen a few sons." ”

"Return Zhulian, I think it's still a good match, how old are you, give it such a name, forget it, arrange the room!" Tang explained.
