The capital is full of greenery and deep summer.

After Zhuang Xian went down, he did not rush home, but made an appointment with three or five friends as before, went to the restaurant to eat tea and listen to books, and pushed the lamp to socialize, until the middle of the moon, and then left the restaurant drunk and said goodbye to everyone.

When he turned the street, his vain footsteps suddenly became steady, and the depression on his face after indulging in alcohol disappeared completely, only the reddish cheeks and the strong smell of wine all over his body could make people see that he had just drunk two catties of wine.

After retching on the wall for a while, Zhuang Xian leaned directly on the wall to rest, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and muttered: "One after another, the amount of alcohol has been getting longer recently!" Hmph, wait until you come back and see if you drink that guy! ”

Qingsong, the little guy who was sent to find someone, hurriedly stepped forward to help him when he saw this, and his brows were so furrowed that he could trap a mosquito: "Son, the master has already given a death order, and you are not allowed to drink five or six all day long and get drunk!"

"If this continues, if your family breaks off your monthly routine, your little money can't afford to spend so much......

"Okay, okay, don't be verbose! Help your son-in-law go home! Zhuang Xian interrupted Qing Song's exhortation, and the whole person collapsed on the other party's body.

Although he has already started a career as an adult, he still has access control, and if he goes back later, he will be found out by his grandfather, and he will have to be reprimanded.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Xian couldn't help but complain in a low voice, "This group of guys is deeply hidden, and they almost drank me down!"

"Hmph, wait for Han Yan to come back, see if we don't take care of him!"

Qing Song couldn't cry or laugh: "Why did you get involved with Young Master Han again?" What does he have to do with this? ……”

You can't just because the two of them have been in the same place that everything is "blessed and shared with hardship".

Zhuang Xian hummed, why has it nothing to do with Han Yan?

If it weren't for Han Yan to find out the details of each family and take the opportunity to form a "deep" friendship, would he have seen the world and drank to make friends?

"Long-winded!" Zhuang Xian glared at Qing Song and said, "With this kung fu, why don't you hurry up and help your master home!" ”

After that, the whole person was pressed on Qing Song's shoulders, and he "carried" himself home.

Overnight, my stomach was bloated and turned over and over.

When he got up the next morning, Zhuang Xian went to the yamen on duty with a confused head.

I can't stay up until the next office, and I am preparing to quit drinking today, and go home to have a good rest, who knows that as soon as I got out of the gate of the Hanlin Academy, I saw Xie Zhiyi standing slim, waiting there with a smile.

Zhuang Xian was stunned for a moment, and quickly cheered up.

For Xie Zhiyi, a fellow senior brother, he admires and fears from the bottom of his heart.

Unlike him and Han Yan's uninhibitedness, Xie Zhiyi is probably very restrained and cautious because of his poor background, although he does not ask his relatives and friends around him to be as self-restrained as him, but in the face of Xie Zhiyi, Zhuang Xian is still unconsciously nervous and uncomfortable.

Therefore, it is clear that Xie Zhiyi, as a household servant, is very able to speak in the court, but he has visited almost all the masters and classmates of the Guozijian, but he has been hesitant not to find Xie Zhiyi.

"Senior Brother Xie." Zhuang Xian stepped forward and smiled, "Why do you have time to come to our Hanlin Academy today?" Do you have any business to do? ”

I hope he didn't come to find himself, in this unprepared and confused state, he didn't know how to deal with someone like Xie Zhiyi who spoke and acted without leakage.

However, the more you worry about something, the more you come.

I saw Xie Zhiyi smiling in the wind, and said elegantly: "I came specially to find Senior Brother Zhuang for you."

"I don't know if Senior Brother Zhuang is free at this time, how about the two of us go for a drink?"

Zhuang Xian was shocked when he heard that Xie Zhiyi had come to find him; When I heard that the other party was asking me to drink, I suddenly felt that my stomach was churning again, sour, spicy, bitter, swelling and pain, and all kinds of flavors came up together, and I almost vomited.

Xie Zhiyi saw Zhuang Xian frowning slightly, and suddenly "chuckled" in his heart, for fear that he would refuse, but his face was still not impatient or impatient, and he looked calm and humble as usual.

"What's the matter, Senior Brother Zhuang is inconvenient tonight?" Xie Zhiyi asked with a smile, clasped his hands together, leaned back slightly, and straightened his body.

When Zhuang Xian heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Senior Brother Xie's invitation is my honor, I am free!" Have free time! ”

Even if you don't have time, you have to make it even.

The squire of the household department, assisting the household secretary in charge of the world's household registration money and grain, should not be underestimated.

Hearing Zhuang Xian's response, Xie Zhiyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Then go to Yuji Teahouse, it just so happens that you are more familiar with it." ”

Seeing that Xie Zhiyi generously set the location of the date in his base camp, Zhuang Xianyan had a reason not to agree.

"Okay! Just listen to my brother! Zhuang Xian replied cheerfully.

I was thinking in my heart, Yu Ji Teahouse is not close to here, and it is my own territory, I don't know why a cautious person like Xie Zhiyi would set the date location there.

The two of them had their own thoughts, laughed and socialized, walked all the way to the Yu Ji Teahouse, and after saying hello to the shopkeeper Yu, they went to the usual private room.

Shopkeeper Yu was stunned by Zhuang Xian's sudden tea with his friends, and after coming back to his senses, he immediately ordered Xiao Er to wait in the private room, while he himself personally stared at the surroundings of the private room to prevent anyone from peeping.

This is a convention, every time Zhuang Xian goes to Yuji Teahouse, if he chooses a random place to drink tea, it means that he is here for recreation and does not need to be deliberately served.

But if you go to a fixed private room, it means that there is something important to do, not to mention clearing the room, at least you have to ensure the cleanliness and stability around the private room.

Outside the private room, the shopkeeper Yu's eyes were like torches, staring at the sentry.

In the private room, after Xiao Er served drinks and side dishes, Zhuang Xian waved him away.

"I don't need you to serve here, just go and get busy." Zhuang Xian said with a smile.

Xiao Er bowed in agreement, retreated, and closed the door of the private room.

The two brothers drank three rounds, and the previously tense and awkward atmosphere gradually became harmonious.

Now it's time to get down to business.

Zhuang Xian thought silently in his heart, quietly clenched his fists, and patiently waited for Xie Zhiyi to open his mouth to cut to the chase.

Xie Zhiyi has always been thoughtful in doing things, of course, he will not go straight to the point, and when he was drunk, he said with a smile: "Two days ago, I went back to Guozijian on official business, and I only realized after listening to them, saying that Senior Brother Zhuang has recently frequently returned to China to visit his master and classmates in the Zijian ......."

After a pause, Xie Zhiyi raised his eyes to look at Zhuang Xian, who was calm, and joked: "Compared with Senior Brother Zhuang, is my senior brother too unqualified?" ”

"Everywhere, Senior Brother Xie, what he said is a joke." Zhuang Xian's heart sank, but he didn't dare to show anything on his face, and he smiled humbly, "I'm just idle and panicked, to visit the master and visit old friends." ”
