Shen Yichen didn't know that Cheng Guogong had already set his eyes on himself, let alone the doubts in the other party's heart.

If Shen Yichen knew, the answer to this doubt was actually very simple.

That is, the choice was given to the charity, and now, it is Shen Yichen who fights for it on his own!

On the side of the students in the inner courtyard, when Chen Qingtong appeared with Shen Yichen, they also attracted everyone's attention. However, compared with Cheng Guogong's sharp speculation, this group of people looked at Shen Yichen with more contempt and contempt.

"Qingtong, why did you bring a schoolchild from the outer courtyard to the banquet today?"

A student in a Wally shirt asked in a disdainful tone. and emphasized the word "schoolchild", ironically mocking Shen Yichen who failed the college exam, and was not even a student, but just a schoolboy who had not entered school.

"Zhu Qingyu, you don't care."

Chen Qingtong naturally heard the contempt in the other party's tone, so he replied very coldly.

"I'm a member of the Zhu clan, of course I can take care of it. Today's family banquet is not allowed to participate in the family banquet that is not the children of the clan and the students of the inner court, and Shen Yichen does not have this qualification. ”

After that, he set his eyes on Shen Yichen, wanting to see how this servant son should behave.

In the face of the provocative gaze, Shen Yichen was as plain as water, and he did not feel the slightest sense of shame when he was arrested. In his mind, he remembered who this Zhu Qingyu was, his grandfather and Zhu Neng, the first generation of Chengguo Gong, were brothers, and they could barely be regarded as his cousins.

However, because of his identity, Shen Yichen did not have much intersection with these Zhu clan children, and he had only met this Zhu Qingyu a few times and knew the relationship with a name.

It stands to reason that the two sides have no grudges, what is this kid doing when he jumps out to make trouble for himself, and the banquet is not his meal.

"Shen Yichen is also in the line of Chengguo Gong, why is he not qualified to participate!"

Shen Yichen didn't answer, Chen Qingtong was angry but stood up and fought for him, this Zhu Qingyu is far inferior to Shen Yichen in terms of blood closeness, and he is embarrassed to use the identity of the Zhu clan to manage?

"If you don't enter the genealogy, you don't count as a clan."

A cold voice came from behind Zhu Qingyu, and in an instant, the students of the inner courtyard who were surrounding to watch the excitement made way for them, and said in unison: "Second son." ”

Second son?

Hearing this title, Shen Yichen collided with the eyes of the comer, and there was only one person who could be called the second son in the Chengguo Mansion, and he was Zhu Yong's second son, Zhu Ji.

If Zhu Qingyu said this, Chen Qingtong would definitely have to argue. But when Zhu Ji appeared from his mouth, Chen Qingtong opened his mouth, and he didn't know how to argue for a while.

However, at this moment, a playful smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yichen's mouth. He used to wonder why Zhu Qingyu had nothing to do to trouble himself when he was full, but now when Zhu Ji appears, then everything can be explained.

Because in Shen Yichen's limited childhood memory, the bullying he was subjected to when he was a child was basically the initiator of this second son, Zhu Ji!

As for why he bullied himself, the reason is actually very simple, because Zhu Ji's mother Lin is not the wife of Chengguo, but the concubine of Houna.

What's even more unfortunate is that his mother, the Shen family, was assigned to the Lin family's courtyard as a maid!

The maid took the throne, and also had the child of Chengguo Gong, from the beginning of the master-servant relationship, to a "competitor". Regardless of the reason for the process, in fact, it has become an imaginary enemy of competition, and Zhu Ji is naturally full of hostility under words and deeds.

I didn't expect that I hadn't seen each other for many years, but everything was still the same.

"Shen Yichen, this is not the place you should come, so you should consciously go out."

Zhu Ji looked at the playful smile on the corner of Shen Yichen's mouth, and suddenly felt very unhappy. When this kid saw himself, he dodged like a mouse seeing a cat, and he still laughed today?

"I think you guys seem to have some misunderstanding about who I am?"

"Since I don't know, I might as well tell you that I didn't come to the banquet today as a child of the clan, or as a student of the outer courtyard, but in the name of the Taining Marquis Mansion."

After finishing speaking, Shen Yichen took a step forward directly, stood in front of Zhu Ji and said awe-inspiringly: "Closing the door and letting the guests of the Hou Mansion of Taining go out, you Zhu Ji don't seem to have this qualification." ”

No matter how unbearable and humble Shen Yichen was before, it was all in the past. The current Shen Yichen will definitely not continue to cowardly escape!

Even the momentum that erupted from Shen Yichen's approaching step made Zhu Ji's body tremble slightly, and he couldn't help but want to retreat. Fortunately, the whole action is not obvious, otherwise he was easily forced back by Shen Yichen's step, and Zhu Ji was afraid that he would lose face.

"That's right, Shen Yichen is going to the banquet with me in the name of the Taining Marquis Mansion, unless Uncle Zhu doesn't allow it, no one can let him out!"

Chen Qingtong also reacted at this moment, he invited Shen Yichen to the banquet together, so he nominally represented the Taining Hou Mansion, not the Zhu clan or the students of the outer court.

If you want to drive customers out, you must have Cheng Guogong to speak in person, otherwise no one can replace his qualifications. But the problem is that this kind of thing, it is absolutely impossible for Grandpa Guo to care, so Shen Yichen participated in it today!

With the blessing in the name of the Taining Hou Mansion, the expressions of this group of students in the inner courtyard who watched the excitement were very exciting, and they never thought that they would be able to find another way like this.

And Zhu Ji's expression became more and more gloomy, on the one hand, Chen Qingtong stirred up, so that he couldn't get off the stage. On the other hand, it was more important, that is, he knew in his heart just now that he was shocked by Shen Yichen's momentum for a moment.

It is simply a humiliation to be shocked by a servant son who has been despised by him since he was a child!

Just when the situation was a little deadlocked, a young man who looked mature and steady walked over and said to everyone present.

"The banquet is about to start, you classmates should go to the table first, there are many honorable relatives and important ministers here today, don't let people see the jokes of the Chengguo Mansion."

The appearance of this young man broke the stalemate and gave the two sides a step down. I saw Zhu Ji snort coldly, glanced at Shen Yichen angrily, and then brushed his sleeves away.

The other inner courtyard students did not leave directly, but gave up their hands one after another: "The eldest son." ”

Just like the name of the second son before, the one who can be called the eldest son in the Chengguo Mansion is naturally the eldest son Zhu Yi.

Seeing Zhu Yi coming, a smile also appeared on Chen Qingtong's face, and he saluted cordially: "Brother Yan Heng." ”

Yan Heng is Zhu Yi's cousin, he is a few years older than Zhu Ji and Shen Yichen, twenty-one this year. And compared with Zhu Ji's arrogance, Zhu Yi has a quiet and serious personality, which is very in line with the standard of the eldest son, and Chen Qingtong has a much better relationship with him.

"Since they're all here, let's sit down with you."

Zhu Yi looked at Shen Yichen and said, there was no special target, and there was no closeness, just like greeting an ordinary guest.

"Well, thank you, eldest son."

Shen Yichen thanked him, no matter what, Zhu Yi's appearance can be regarded as a kind of relief. In addition, his tone was also very flat, and he didn't feel any brotherly feelings in his heart.

Maybe the emotion of brothers, friends and brothers is not very suitable for the family of the emperor and prince.

In addition, what Shen Yichen didn't know was that the whole thing was all in the eyes of Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo. In a sense, the father and son were "reunited" on this occasion.
