Chapter 998: The Way to Get Out
After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere of the banquet became more enthusiastic, Tian Jun couldn't resist the Third Highness, and made a small order in desperation, which immediately attracted everyone's applause.
Most of the people who came to the banquet today are young sons who love poetry and love, with Tian Jun at the beginning, everyone comes and goes, and they write poems and endowments, judge each other, and compete with each other.
The lively scene lasted until most of the sons were drunk on the table, and Tian Jun returned to the seat with a confession of intoxication.
He looked at Yang Zhiyuan, who was eating and drinking by himself, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Young Master Yang is not kind, and he hides it from me." ”
So far, he can't see where Yang Zhiyuan met him on the street at all, it must have been the other party's idea, and he was invited to this banquet from the beginning.
"Brother Tian's reproach is that I didn't do enough to be generous in this matter, come on, come on, I'll punish myself." Yang Zhiyuan smiled and drank the wine in the cup.
Tian Jun just said casually, he didn't plan to worry about anything with the other party, in fact, he couldn't afford it, the third prince has a noble status, where is this invitation that he can push away.
Even Yang Zhiyuan can't be provoked, after all, the other party's backer is the Lord Lu Commander who is above 10,000 people under one person.
Tian Jun himself also raised a glass and drank together, which was regarded as an attitude, the strong wine entered his throat, and the hot taste had dissipated only in his throat, because his mood had never been hot because of this wine banquet, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt a chill down his back.
"Young Master Yang, I am being foolish, I really don't understand what you are doing this for," Tian Jun smiled bitterly: "I don't know if Gongzi can know each other directly." ”
"Brother Tian is humble, you are the right-hand man of the Second Highness, and you can turn evil into good fortune for the Lord who is facing enemies on all sides, and the Third Highness is also a person who loves talents, so it is not natural for you to have some ideas." Yang Zhiyuan said with a smile.
"Just the Third Highness?" Tian Jun asked meaningfully.
Yang Zhiyuan laughed, he raised his glass and said: "Brother Tian is relieved, don't forget that although you can pull the tiger skin as a banner, in the final analysis, you are just the son of a squire, so this move is also helpless." ”
Yang Zhiyuan is very self-aware, he is really nothing in Beijing, even if he has the name of Lord Lu, but there are some people he can't afford to provoke, such as His Royal Highness the Third Prince.
The other party was willing to put down his body to discuss this matter with him, it was already for the sake of Lord Lu's face, Yang Zhiyuan knew that his catties and two pounds were not a difficult thing, so he naturally gladly agreed.
"Is what Yang Gongzi said true?"
Tian Jun saw Yang Zhiyuan nodding, so he breathed a sigh of relief, when he first thought of Yang Zhiyuan's game, he was worried that Lord Lu was behind this matter, which really made him tremble.
At this moment, knowing that the original designer was His Royal Highness the Third Prince, Tian Jun suddenly let go of the stone in his heart, not that he looked down on this literati prince who was quite praised by Shilin, but compared with the Lu commander, no one would inevitably fall behind.
However, although this matter was not as troublesome as he initially thought, it was also very embarrassing, and the embarrassment was that he, as a guest of the Second Highness, had not communicated with the Lord, so he came to the banquet of the Third Prince.
"Young Master Yang, you're in a bad situation." Tian Jun sighed.
Yang Zhiyuan shook his head and said: "Brother Tian, don't worry, this matter is not authentic, this favor will be returned to you tonight, how about it?" ”
Tian Jun's wine suddenly woke up for the most part, and he said with a straight face: "Young Master Yang, please speak." ”
"The Third Highness finally invited you here, naturally he refused to let people go easily, you and I didn't avoid outsiders when we came, if you let the Second Highness know about this, I'm afraid it will hurt the feelings between you."
Yang Zhiyuan motioned for the other party to come closer, and then said: "Although the wood is now completed, Brother Tian can still make up for it, if you leave the banquet as soon as possible, and explain this matter to him before His Royal Highness hears the news, you may be able to eliminate the suspicion." ”
When Tian Jun heard this, he sighed: "I don't know how this matter is, but I have tried it many times, even if I ask for a farewell, His Royal Highness will not let him go, I don't know if Young Master Yang has noticed that the guards of His Royal Highness have been guarding the door, even if he wants to say goodbye without saying goodbye, I am afraid it is also very difficult." ”
"That's why you need Ben Gongzi's help," Yang Zhiyuan looked around with his eyes left and right, and then said in a low voice: "Ben Gongzi also has some friendship with the steward of this Jingshui Building, and when Brother Tian changes his clothes for a while, he can change into the clothes of the little guy and leave quietly." ”
"Really?" Tian Jun's eyes lit up: "Yang Gongzi's great kindness, remember it in my heart." ”
"Eh, you're welcome." Yang Zhiyuan waved his hand, and pulled the other party with a smile to continue drinking, without arousing the suspicion of the third prince.
On the other side, the third prince also used the cover of drunkenness to follow the staff who came to talk in a low voice.
"This king likes Mr. Tian's poems, this heart is not false, today I borrowed Yang Gongzi's hand to invite him, this king has been insincere to treat him, and now he uses Mr.'s method to calculate on him Alas, this is not a gentleman's doing."
The third prince's face was a little bitter, he was not as deep as Yang Zhiyuan thought, and the literati temperament he carried was not a disguise, and a large part of it was self-contained.
It's just that the staff member persuaded: "I also know that His Highness is kind-hearted, but if you don't do this divisive plan, with Tian Junzhi as a person, you will never easily abandon Your Highness Second." ”
"But." The third prince was still a little unbearable, just now he sang against Tian Jun during the banquet, he was really happy and happy, and when he thought that such a wonderful man would be harshly criticized by others because of himself, his heart ached faintly.
"Your Highness!" The staff sighed, and then persuaded: "If Your Highness really doesn't want to go, then you might as well wait for Mr. Tian to return to the door, and then reward him with a big gift to apologize." ”
"That's all there is to it." At this point, His Royal Highness reluctantly agreed.
The banquet continued, and Tian Jun had been acting on the scene in order to find an opportunity, and pretended to be overwhelmed after drinking with Yang Zhiyuan.
Yang Zhiyuan came to drink tonight, he didn't have any psychological burden anyway, he drank openly, until Tian Jun left, he was already a little drunk.
"Mr. Tian, are you leaving?" Seeing Tian Jun get up, the third prince hurriedly caught up, and he feigned anger and said, "Why is Mr. so disappointed, this banquet has just begun." ”
Tian Jun smiled and said: "This is natural, please let me change my clothes first, and I want to have a few more drinks with His Highness." ”
The third prince blushed a little and said: "So that's the case, this king Meng Lang, don't blame me, sir." ”
Just when the third prince released people and Tian Jun was about to quietly get out according to Yang Zhiyuan's forward plan, there was a sudden commotion outside the building, and the movement was very big.
Several people looked at each other for a while, all of them didn't understand what was going on, until one of the guards of the third prince hurriedly came to report: "Your Highness, it was the Second Highness who rushed up with someone." ”
This remark made Tian Jun's face suddenly turn extremely pale, and the three princes and others were also ugly, and even Yang Zhiyuan, who was lying on the table and was drowsy, was half awakened by this sound.
