As soon as the three of them left Xu's house, they got into a carriage that had been waiting outside the door. The carriage was very wide, and though it sat three people, it was not crowded.

After a few streets, the carriage stopped. The three of them entered the Xizi Restaurant. "Mr. Zhao" led Yu Ren and the others to a private room on the second floor.

Before he entered the door, Yu Ren heard the voices of the Wu brothers talking. That Wu Ying was talking about his journey to Jiangxi a few years ago, and he met robbers in the mountains, and how they outwitted the robbers, and finally influenced and subdued these people.

As soon as Yu Ren entered the door, he saw that the banquet had not yet opened, and the Wu brothers were already sitting at the upper table. Yang Ju sat in the main seat, watching him listen impatiently to the Wu brothers blowing the conch there, wanting to go but not leaving, Yu Ren was really sympathetic.

"Brother Yu, you're here!" When Yang Ju saw Yu Ren enter the room, he couldn't help but be very happy, as if he had seen a savior, and hurriedly left the table to greet him.

And the Wu brothers sitting on the side didn't seem to see Yu Ren, and they were still there dedicated to their unfinished business - bragging.

However, the master has left the table, who is this Wu brother talking to? Only then did Yu Ren notice that in fact, the Wu brothers were not talking to Yang Ju at all, but to the girl who was standing on the side of "Mr. Zhao".

Miss Yun'er had obviously been instructed by her master in advance, and although there was an impatient look on her face, she still endured it, standing next to the Wu brothers, and patiently listening to their bragging.

Seeing the painful truth of Miss Yun'er, Yu Ren was really sympathetic.

"Brother Yu is here!" Lu Xiangsheng also appeared out of nowhere at this time.

"Yikes! You're just here! I thought we were the last! ”

Lu Xiangsheng showed a wry smile, "I came early, but I thought there were always two bed bugs chattering here, which was really annoying, so I went out to breathe." As he spoke, he glanced at the Wu brothers on the table.

Lu Xiangsheng's words were deliberately loud, obviously deliberately for the Wu brothers.

Only then did the Wu brothers turn their heads, as if they had just seen Lu Xiangsheng and Yu Ren. "Ahh You're here too! It's okay to come. Anyway, even if you make up the numbers, you still have to make them! However, Brother Yang, in my opinion, you don't need to trouble Lu and Yu at all. Tang Zhe's group, I know too clearly. To deal with them, it is enough to have our two brothers.

Looking at the appearance of Lu and Yu, if any hometown gentleman recruits sons-in-law, he can consider sending them to appear. As for this archery competition, I don't think it's better to embarrass them! ”

It was Wu Ying, the second of the Wu brothers, who said this.

Lu Xiangsheng sneered, and was about to sneer at each other. Yang Ju saw that the two sides were about to fight again, so he hurriedly came up to play a round.

"Everyone is for the sake of Zaixia, for Donglin, and for the bigger, all for the prosperity and stability of the Ming Dynasty. No matter how much effort I contribute, I Yang Ju is equally grateful. At this time, the enemy is present, we should share the same hatred, and we should not fight internally! With that, Yang Ju led Lu Xiangsheng, Yu Ren, and Xu Fatzi to the banquet and sat down. Although he was also very unaccustomed to the style of the Wu brothers, he still had to rely on the two of them to contribute to the competition in seven days, so he had to endure it.

"Brother Yang's words are naturally reasonable. However, I don't think the matter of the argument between the Lu brothers and the two Wu Dacai should not be taken lightly. At the moment, of course, we should not compete internally, but we must first understand the respective strengths of everyone within us! As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can survive a hundred battles! Tang Zhe and the situation of the five people on their side, we naturally have to inquire, but between the five of us, we can't help but understand each other!

This competition is related to the reputation of Donglin and the fame of the five of us in our lives, so we must not be sloppy! ”

Yang Ju nodded, Yu Ren's words were not what he was thinking. It's just that as the master, a few people came out to help out of righteousness, so he naturally couldn't say what they wanted to show their abilities first! But as Yu Ren said, this question is too important. If they didn't figure out the strength of their side before the battle, they would not be able to make the best possible deployment.

Now that Yu Ren has mentioned it, he also happens to borrow the slope to get off the donkey.

"That, what Brother Yu meant. What should I do? Yang Ju asked deliberately.

"It's easy, too, so let's find a hidden place and stretch out our hands first. So that everyone can understand each other's strength in advance. Then according to the strength of the five people on Tang Zhe's side that we investigated, we will discuss the order and tactics of our appearance. ”

"It's easy, I can arrange it tomorrow. I know a friend who runs a martial arts gym in Hangzhou, and our family has always had some business dealings with their family. I'll go say hello tomorrow, let's borrow the martial arts training ground in their martial arts hall to have an internal competition first! What do you think? "Mr. Zhao" didn't wait for Yu Ren to finish speaking, and immediately said.

"What do the two Wu brothers think?" Yang Ju looked at the Wu brothers and asked.

"This is not entirely unreasonable. Then do it! Wu Peng stroked his beard and pretended to groan.

"Great, that's it. What is the specific time tomorrow, wait for 'Brother Zhao Xian' to arrange, and then notify everyone separately. Now, let's put aside all the unhappiness of the past and have a toast together! From now on, we are brothers in distress in the same boat. Yang Ju said, raising his glass first.

Although Yu Ren and Lu Xiangsheng didn't like the Wu brothers, they also knew that they still had to focus on the overall situation at this time. After all, this competition is not only about their personal fame, but also determines whether the Donglin Party can leave influence in Hangzhou, the nest of the Zhejiang Party, and finally gain an advantage in the struggle against the Zhejiang Party.

Due to the consideration of the overall situation, several people were more restrained after that. As a result, the atmosphere at the banquet began to become harmonious, and everyone drank a lot of wine.

This is the first time that Yu Ren has drunk so much wine in this world, and it is also the first time that he feels that the wine is refreshing.

What Yu Ren didn't expect was that Yang Ju, who had always been very low-key, had an astonishing amount of alcohol. And Lu Xiangsheng, who was regarded by Yu Ren as bold and upright, was drunk on the table not long after he came on the court, and he couldn't get up.

So, Yun'er hurriedly called the little guy in the restaurant, carried Lu Xiangsheng out, and temporarily settled him in the guest room of the restaurant. And Yu Ren and they continued to drink.

Fat Xu was the only person at this table who didn't drink, not because Yang Ju didn't pay attention to him, but because Fat Yang couldn't drink by nature. As soon as he drank alcohol, his whole body would become red and itchy. Therefore, no one else embarrassed him.

Originally, Yu Ren saw that the Wu brothers were still in a state of madness at all, and he had the intention to borrow wine to frustrate the spirit of the two. As a result, because of Lu Xiangsheng's early exit and Xu Fatzi's automatic abandonment, he became the target of the Wu brothers' attack.

Although Yu Ren's alcohol consumption is okay, the Wu brothers' alcohol consumption is not weak, if it weren't for Yang Ju helping him stop a lot of wine. Yu Ren had already been drunk by these two guys.

In the end, Yang Ju saw that Yu Ren couldn't bear it anymore, so he quickly found an excuse and dispersed.

Yu Ren was finally awake, but he was a little shaky when he walked. And Lu Xiangsheng fell asleep completely.

"I only have a car here, and now I'm afraid it's not very convenient to call a car. In my opinion, I still arranged for a car to send Brother Lu back to the inn first. Sit down here for a moment, and I'll be right back. Yang Ju said, and went downstairs to arrange to send Lu Xiangsheng away.

After Yang lifted down, Xiao Er came up and removed the dishes, and put on some melons, fruits, desserts and the like. Several people sat at a table, eating snacks, melons and fruits, and chatting. At this time, the stamina of the wine began to rise, and Yu Ren's drunkenness became stronger and stronger. Listening to the words of the Wu brothers on the other side, Yu Ren couldn't help but want to say a few sarcastic words.

But although his mind has begun to be a little chaotic at this time, he still understands in his heart, and knows that it is not appropriate to stiffen everyone's relationship at this time. However, if Yu Ren wants to sit here and listen to the fleshy praise of these two people, he has a feeling of wanting to vomit.

"Fatty, let's go back too!" Yu Ren said to Xu Fatzi.
