Chapter 162: Acquaintances Meet
Obviously, he was still amiable just now, but he turned his face in an instant. At this moment, the scholars in the restaurant were arguing fiercely, one by one, their tone was excited, their spit was flying, and they even moved their hands in the back, and some poured rice on each other, stirring up the food and soup all over the sky.
The restaurant guys who came out to pull the rack were all splashed into soup chickens, and no one listened to them when they shouted loudly, so they simply gave up struggling and hid in the back kitchen to let them go, just arrest people and lose money in the end.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Gu Yunji and the others took advantage of everyone's inattention, and paid the money early in the morning to prepare to leave in a low-key manner. Who knew that they had just walked out of the restaurant a few steps before they were stopped: "Yo-it's rare to see old friends, and I didn't say hello, why did I leave like this?" ”
Gu Yunji paused, sighed speechlessly, and turned to look at the visitor: "Ren Yingze, what do you want to do?" ”
"What can I do? I just want to catch up with you. Ren Yingze put his hand on Gu Yunji's shoulder, looking quite affectionate, "I've known friends for so long, and I actually wanted to avoid me and quietly walk away in the restaurant just now, this is not righteous!" ”
Gu Yunji mercilessly shook off Ren Yingze's arm and took a step back to distance himself from him: "Who is your friend with you?" Don't think too highly of yourself. ”
Although there is no deep hatred between him and Ren Yingze, the past experience of the two is not pleasant, and it is far from being a friend.
What's more, the reason why the scholars in the restaurant quarreled like this was, in the final analysis, the regional contradiction provoked by Ren Yingze first. Now that the fire arch is bigger, others are fighting inextricably, but he slipped out leisurely, looking like he didn't care about himself, and it made people angry when he looked at it.
In fact, Ren Yingze took the initiative to come to Gu Yunji, they didn't have any special purpose, but they were a little surprised, Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan were both admitted to the exam, plus they were not familiar with life in the capital, and when they finally saw two people they knew, they couldn't help but come over and owe a few words.
Seeing that Gu Yunji didn't save any face for himself, Ren Yingze sighed lightly: "Look at what you said, even if you are not a friend, at least you are an acquaintance, right?" Is it necessary to be so hostile to me? ”
"Speaking of which, I didn't expect both of them to pass the exam, which is really surprising." Ren Yingze glanced at the two of them unscrupulously, his gaze was uncomfortable, "Isn't it that there are few scholars in Songjiang Mansion who take the exam this year, so you are lucky?" ”
Xu Dong, who was following behind Gu Yunji, listened to it for a long time, and couldn't help it, and blurted out: "You are talking nonsense!" One of my young master and Cheng Gongzi is Xie Yuan, and the other is Yayuan, and their rankings are very high, so it's not a fluke! ”
Unexpectedly, Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan did so well in the exam, Ren Yingze's face stiffened, and his face was a little unbearable, so he simply pointed the finger at Xu Dong, and said in a deep voice: "I'm talking to your young master, what kind of thing are you, and you dare to intervene?" ”
Gu Yunji quietly stepped forward, protected Xu Dong behind him, and said in a cold tone: "People like you can be lifted, isn't it normal for us to be hit?" ”
Ren Yingze suddenly felt looked down on and was very unhappy: "What do you call a person like me?" I Ren Yingze was born in a scholarly family, I have been a genius since I was a child, I can read and write at the age of three, recite poetry at the age of seven, and I can compose at the age of nine, and the elders in the family are all well-educated people, and my grandfather is still a scholar......"
"Oh, so what?" Gu Yunji glanced at him lightly and interrupted loudly, "Since your grandfather is a school official, could it be that you are a lifter through the back door?" ”
"Gu Yunji!"
Ren Yingze almost didn't come up in one breath, he wanted to have a seizure but was afraid of being on the street, so he had to restrain his anger, lowered his voice and gritted his teeth: "I was admitted with my own strength, and I didn't go through the back door!" And I was already in the last Enko, earlier than all of you! ”
Gu Yunji immediately retorted: "So much older than us, are you embarrassed to compete with us sooner or later?" ”
Cheng Yan was not to be outdone, and Yu Yu continued: "The last time Enke Township test, Yun Ji and I were only fourteen years old, if we really won the move at such a young age, we would have been a peerless genius who caused a sensation in the world, and you can still have the qualifications to speak to us on an equal footing today?" ”
"You guys!" Feeling the gaze of the passers-by around him, Ren Yingze smoothed his breath, endured it a few times before he could maintain his demeanor, and forcibly held back the fire in his heart.
Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he cupped his arms for a long time, and the corners of his mouth hooked a sarcastic arc: "Speaking of which, why don't you see Su Qi?" Don't you three spend a lot of time together? Could it be that he failed in another country? ”
"Or ......" Ren Yingze paused, and glanced at Gu Yunxiao next to him, intentionally or unintentionally, "You broke off your friendship and got a new follower?" ”
Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan were silent for a moment, and then asked for no reason: "Ren Yingze, you don't read the Di newspaper at all, do you?" ”
Ren Yingze was unexpected: "What? ”
Gu Yunji took a deep breath, tried to suppress the urge to scold in his heart, and said slowly: "In March this year, the Tatars invaded northern Xinjiang, and His Majesty ordered Su Qi to be a general, and together with Chu Jing, the new chief soldier of Datong Town, he led the troops to support. After the Tatars were repulsed, Su Qi was promoted to the chief soldier of Xuanfu Town because of his repeated military exploits during this period, and guarded the frontier on behalf of his father. ”
Gu Yunji raised his head and looked at Ren Yingze, with deep doubts in his eyes: "Even if you don't read the Di newspaper, haven't you heard of these things at all?" ”
The seventeen-year-old boy general led 10,000 elite cavalry deep into the enemy's army, defeating nearly 50,000 Tatar soldiers. From an eighty-year-old woman to a three-year-old child, everyone on the streets and alleys was amazed, how could Ren Yingze not have heard of it.
After reacting, Ren Yingze suddenly realized how ridiculous his speculation was, his face turned red, and he said stiffly: "I, I forgot, it's not such a strange thing, who can always remember it......"
Gu Yunji was too lazy to spend any more time with him, and said casually: "It's not early, let's go back first and say goodbye." ”
"Eh, wait." Ren Yingze was surprisingly thick-skinned, and when he saw that Gu Yunji and the others were leaving, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, "What's the matter, it's an acquaintance, since everyone is in the same capital, why don't you have to tell me where you live?" In the future, we will have a lot of exchanges with each other. ”
I'm afraid that the exchanges are fake, but the entanglement is real. If Ren Yingze is told about his residence, he may not know when he will come to the door to disturb the trouble, and in the next few months, it will be strange to be able to prepare for the exam with peace of mind.
Gu Yunji glanced at him with a smile: "Ren Gongzi's memory is so poor, even if he tells you, he won't be able to remember, so it's better not to say it at the beginning, and see you again in the future." ”
After that, without waiting for Ren Yingze to react, several people turned around and left.
