Zhu Fengxian and Yang Ansheng each vented their dissatisfaction loudly, although Chen Jing, as the host, did not join their discussion team, but just sat on the side and drank alone, but it could be regarded as a pleasure for the guests and hosts.

After Zhu Fengxian's enlightenment, Yang Ansheng's mood finally stabilized at this time, especially after no longer being restrained, eating and drinking well for a while, and his heart knot also opened a lot.

Zhu Feng stood up first, poured wine for the three of them, and then sat down again and said, "Brother Yang, what are you going to do next。。。。。。?" ”

He didn't say it thoroughly, after all, with the illustrious family backgrounds of him and Chen Jing, it was easy to help this unambitious foreigner, but it was just a sentence, and it didn't take much effort at all, but although it was good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, with the help of the two of them, not to mention that the career would be smooth in the future, but it would definitely be no problem to get an official and a half-job, after all, even if it was a big Situ who was in power and had a monopoly on power, he would sell Chen Jing and his father a face, but if he really had to be promoted by the two of them, it would be regarded as a seal, and from then on, it would be their subordinates, for this simple-minded foreigner, but not necessarily a good thing.

If you are ambitious and have the means, those people may be able to hit it off, after all, if you want to mix with officialdom and have no ability, then wait to be killed by others, but if you are actually a person who likes to be content with the status quo, then it is better to go home early, even if you fail to achieve fame in the exam, but there is no endless road, you can always do other things, whether it is business or farming, you can live a good life.

Therefore, he never chose to speak thoroughly, and directly revealed the true identities of the two.

Hearing Zhu Fengxian suddenly ask like this, Yang Ansheng hesitated again and again, and finally sighed, and said gloomily: "Brother Ma and I have a classmate, and now he is dying tragically on the street for no apparent reason, if I leave, I will definitely have trouble sleeping, but I also know that with my ability, it is impossible to deal with those adults who collude together." ”

If you want one person to fight against the entire bureaucracy, then you are a fool's dream, don't say that he is a foreigner with no foundation connections, even if he is the king of a country, the first person in the world sitting on the dragon chair, he cannot directly confront all the officials under him, once they put down their prejudices, the same hatred and hatred, and gather together, it is a huge energy that can completely subvert the entire country, and can even make the king embarrassed, so the kings of all dynasties have pursued the golden mean, and if one side gains power, it is necessary to immediately support the other side to indirectly suppress one or two。

In the eyes of the emperor, there is no distinction between loyalty and treachery, only the difference between what can be used and what cannot be used, if you can't use you, even if you have the ability, you have to be hidden in the snow, if you can use you, even if it is rumored that you are a traitor outside, you must also be reused, anyway, the people are scolding you, what happened, just take your top bag, and it will not drive the emperor down, this is the emperor's mental trick, the king's heart is unpredictable.

When Zhu Fengxian heard this, he was immediately relieved, and secretly said You can see it clearly, you are not the kind of fool who likes to rush to death, there are some things, just talk about it at the wine table, don't take it seriously, and asked pretending to be puzzled at the moment: "Oh?

Yang Ansheng said with a resolute face: "I heard from a friend that there is a big man in the capital, who claims to be the person who controls the entire underground of the capital, with huge energy, it is said that whether it is a gambling house or a music square, it is his industry, and even the private salt, gunpowder and other things prohibited by the imperial court, his people dare to do it, the ninth-rate people in the whole capital are all his other eyes, all the masters on the rivers and lakes are the knives in his hands, I want to go to him to uphold justice!"

Zhu Fengxian almost laughed out loud, secretly glanced at Chen Jing, who was sitting next to him, without raising his eyelids, and deliberately said: "There is such a powerful person in the capital? But according to Brother Yang's description, he should also be a great evildoer, how can he uphold justice for you?"

Yang Ansheng stood up and said, with a firm expression: " Non also, non also, you don't know about this matter, this big man, is the only person in the capital who can find justice for the people, once someone's land was forcibly occupied by the local big family, and the family was ruined, just because the big family was related to the imperial court and county order, no one dared to provoke, until the descendants of the family found this adult, the next day, the head of the big family and the local county order was neatly placed on the city tower, such a person, although it is a shady business, but with a righteous heart, I believe he will be able to avenge Brother Ma！”

After all, a person as legendary as this, even if he is just retelling the stories he heard from other people's mouths, he is already excited, and he is embarrassed by himself, what young man does not worship heroes? Especially this kind of hero who is not bound by secular rules and dares to uphold justice for the people.

Zhu Fengxian couldn't help but glance at Chen Jing who was sitting next to him again, and found that he still didn't react, and was just about to open his mouth to reveal his identity and help this poor foreigner friend, but the door of the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside with a "bang".

Chen Jing was holding a small wine glass in his mouth, and before he could put it down, he just raised his eyelids slightly, and in the frightened look on Yang Ansheng's face, a large number of people suddenly walked in from outside.

The leader should be about thirty years old in terms of physiognomy, dressed in the official uniform of a bird, but he looks like a traitor, with thin eyes and a thin mouth, a thief's appearance, and his body is thin, and his hands on both sides must grasp the Peiyu belt on the side of his belly, and stand up slightly to prevent him from falling.

This man was followed by a dozen or so people dressed as officials of the yamen, but none of them carried weapons, but just clasped their hands on their chests and stood quietly behind him, pretending to be a man for him.

As soon as the gang swaggered in, the last one closed the door, oblivious to the exclamations outside.

The thin-eyed official in the lead kicked open the tables and chairs around him, walked all the way to Chen Jing's side and stood still, gently pouted, and a government official behind him stepped forward, put his hand on Chen Jing's shoulder, and said with a cruel smile: "Boy, get up!"

Chen Jing didn't say much, just put down the wine glass casually, walked to the side silently, and then sat down again, his expression was indifferent, and he didn't seem to feel humiliated.

Zhu Fengxian, who was on the other side, stared at what the thin eyes did when he came in, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly.

And Yang Ansheng on the other side was already trembling with fear.

How could he not recognize this man? Even if the other person turned to ashes, he would recognize him!

Because this person was the deputy of the chief examiner in the examination room that day, that is, he collected money from the students on their behalf.

This person sat down in the position that originally belonged to Chen Jing, and said with a smile on his face: "Oh, I can't see that you Yang Gongzi is still a rich man, and you can still come to eat in a separate compartment in this Qifeng Tower, it seems that the official underestimates you." ”

Where did Yang Ansheng dare to reply, he could only secretly cast a distressed glance at Zhu Fengxian, who was sitting next to him, but the latter was still waiting for a good show to be staged, where could he ignore him, just pretending to be afraid and lowering his head, not wanting the people next to him to find out that he was snickering.

Seeing that his friend didn't dare to speak out to help him in this kind of scene, Yang Ansheng was angry and helpless, although at this time, the other party really had no obligation to offend this person who was obviously an official of the imperial court for a friend who had known him for a long time, but he didn't even dare to say a word.

The momentum of avenging his good friend just now disappeared with the other party's group breaking in, he is just a poor and depressed ordinary scholar, and now in this situation, whether it is status or force, is far above him, he is completely powerless to resist, just hang his head at the moment and do not speak.

Seeing that no one was willing to answer, he glanced left and right, and sneered disdainfully: "It seems that you two should also be friends with wine and meat, right?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and patted Chen Jing's head lightly.

"Don't be afraid, this official is not here to look for you today, but what you see today, remember not to talk nonsense if you drink too much, otherwise once something happens, it will be bad, both of you are young people, and you have a great future!"

As he spoke, he grabbed the chopsticks on the table and thrust them into the fish head on the plate, and at the same time glanced at Chen Jing and Zhu Fengxian left and right, and the threat in the words was extremely rich.

After warning the two people next to him, his fine eyes turned to Yang Ansheng and asked, "The official was at the door just now, and when I heard what you said, I want to find someone to take revenge on the official, right?"

Yang Ansheng just lowered his head and shook it gently, but he still didn't dare to speak.

The thin eyes stood up and shook his head a little boringly: "Okay, the official heard it outside, so don't pretend to be garlic." ”

Yang Ansheng had no choice but to raise his head slightly, only to see his thin eyes leave his seat, walk over slowly, stand next to him again, lower his head, and threaten in a voice that everyone could hear.

"Your friend doesn't know each other, and he is looking for death, he can't complain about others, and he doesn't want to think about it, my family is a proud protégé of the great Situ, and he sued him. ”

He stretched out his hand, patted Yang Ansheng's face gently, and continued: "This official has said that, you are so self-conscious, I suggest that you leave the capital tonight and hurry back to your hometown, this time, this time, when you are drunk and gaffe, let you go as a fart, if the official still sees you in the capital tomorrow, let your family go to the moat to collect the body!"

After saying this, he held his belt again and walked towards the door, shaking his head and sneering as he went.

"A bunch of poor worms who don't know the height of the sky!"
