A birthday banquet that was originally happy and peaceful, but after the prefect Fang left, the atmosphere suddenly became weird.

The Shen family had already chased him out after seeing the prefect Fang leave, and it seemed that they wanted to chase him back and save the Shen family's birthday banquet.

But everyone waited for a long time and didn't see the prefect come back.

Another tea time passed, and Shen Han, the birthday star of the Shen Mansion tonight, finally came to the courtyard.

Looking at the smile on his face, Xu He knew that he already knew what had just happened.

Although this smile is light on the surface, it has lost the joy when they first met, giving people the feeling that although he is smiling, he is very reluctant.

"Thank you for coming to the old man's birthday banquet, if there is no good hospitality, please also invite everyone Haihan!" Shen Han arched his hand around!

Everyone stood up and clenched their fists.

I thought there would be a lengthy speech, but who knew that Shen Han actually sat down with a smile after saying this.

Seeing this, Shen Xuan on the side had no choice but to beckon everyone to sit down and announce the official start of the banquet.

The Shen family's wine banquet is naturally full of delicacies from the mountains and seas.

Especially on the front table, the delicacies are stacked on top of each other as if they don't need money.

With a few glasses of wine, it seemed that the awkward atmosphere just now was swept away, and the guests began to talk to each other again.

During the banquet, Xu He, as the youngest guest, of course, toasted the scarlet robes on the table before the future of the main family.

After everyone got acquainted with each other, and because of the drinking, Xu He began to hear people around him discussing what had just happened.

"Songjiang Mansion only has two counties, and it is close to the sea, the Wusong River is flooded from time to time, and in the summer and autumn, the local people often can't pay taxes, and the prefect surnamed Fang is also the truth!"

"I heard that in the past 20 years, the position of the prefect of Songjiang has not been easy to do!"

"That is, as soon as the grain is paid and the tax is paid, the local government will ask to sue the Shen Mansion, I heard that a few years ago, a slave of the Shen family beat the magistrate of Shanghai County to death, and in the end there was nothing, why? It's not time to ask for the Shen family, there's no way, swallow your anger! ”

"Be cautious, don't say anything like that! Someone from the Lord's house is coming! ”

The officials immediately shut their mouths, smiled and stood up with their cups.

Xu He saw that Shen Han did not come to this table to toast in person, but Shen Xuan and Wang Liangchen came to this table on behalf of the Shen family.

"Little Pavilion Old!"

"Lord Wang!"

After what happened just now, everyone had a new understanding of the Shen family's status in Songjiang, and they didn't dare to make a mistake, and they smiled on their faces!

Shen and Wang first came to Xu He's side, cast a net on the people at this table, and drank a drink together.

Then Wang Liangchen said: "Brother Shen Han's youngest son is still young, and he just said some bastard words, which really made you see the joke, as an uncle, I will compensate you on his behalf!" ”

After saying that, he asked the maid to pour the wine and punished himself with a glass.

Everyone said that how old is Shen Yu, can he still say that he is young?

But at this time, there was no fool to debunk Wang Liangchen, so everyone snorted and gave face, so they should have fooled this matter.

At this time, Shen Xuan and Wang Liangchen toasted Tang Shun separately, nothing more than to congratulate him on his first arrival in the place and his future ambitions!

Just when everyone thought that the uncle and nephew were going to go off the table and continue.

Who knew that the two of them called the maid to fill their wine glasses, and then Wang Liangchen spoke: "Liangsheng, you are not very old, but your knowledge impresses me!" If we have a chance, let's have another fight together? How is it? ”

When everyone heard this, their hearts couldn't help but be shocked.

Who is Wang Liangchen?

The brother-in-law of the former pavilion elder, and now the great master of Nanzhili.

Xu He was appreciated by him, not to mention anything else, there will definitely be no problem in the future scientific examination and annual examination.

And that's not all.

After the student became famous, he wanted to achieve greater achievements in the imperial examination.

Achievement is one thing, fame is also another.

Especially the township test.

Although it is transcribed and the name is obscure, the imperial court has the policy of supplementation.

That is to say, you have a great reputation in Shilin, and in the end, if you fail to be selected by the marking officer, under the recommendation of the big guy, you can also submit the debugging paper and ask for re-reading.

At this time, there was a policy that did not exist in the imperial examinations of the Ming and Qing dynasties in another time and space.

Of course, this addendum is very cautious for the bigwigs to use.

Because once you propose an addendum for someone, that person will be completely tied to your political life in the future.

The state will acquiesce, and if he has a problem, the person who proposed the addendum will also sit with him.

That is, it's okay if this person doesn't have an accident in the future, but if something happens, even if you are a university scholar, then I'm sorry, you have to be implicated!

But it was praised by a province, especially the two capitals, in front of everyone.

What else do you need for a bike.

When he went out to participate in a literary meeting, a person like Xu He, who had been praised by the great grandmaster, was naturally superior.

Even if he is a member of the student now, people will not dare to rise above him when they see him.

But this is not over, Wang Liangchen filled the wine glass after drinking a glass with Xu He, and then called Xu He aside and said: "Liangsheng, don't leave after a while, Shen Ge Lao invites you to go to the inner courtyard for another small banquet!" ”

Xu He was stunned when he heard this, the so-called small banquet is a small-scale banquet, which is generally a special etiquette for the host to receive familiar guests.

Who are you?

I thought that because of the uncle's entry into the cabinet, the Shen family's plan to enter the cabinet failed, but this time I would be given some face by the Shen family.

Who knew that he was not only warmly entertained by the Shen family, but also asked him to participate in a small banquet that only guests close to the Shen family could attend.

What's going on here?

Just when Xu He was puzzled, Shen Xuan also came forward with a wine glass.

Compared with Wang Liangchen's intimacy, Shen Xuan, who should have been the most familiar with him in the Shen Mansion, had a smile on his face that was very reluctant: "Bright voice!" Drink! ”

After speaking, he drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

Xu He couldn't figure out the situation, but he knew that this was not the time to speak, so he also drank the wine in one gulp.

About half an hour passed for the banquet.

The guests who came to congratulate him, first some bigwigs talked to Shen Han for a while, and then said goodbye one after another.

Other officials, big and small, also stopped their chopsticks, and waited for the official position higher than themselves to finish, and then got up with their colleagues to say goodbye.

Tang Shunzhi smiled before leaving: "You still don't leave?" ”

Xu He told the Shen family that he had to keep him to attend the small banquet.

Tang Shunzhi said with a strange look on his face: "I didn't see it, the Shen family still likes you kid!" ”

After speaking, he smiled and said: "I am in Huzhou, not far from your Hailing, I have time to come to Huzhou for a walk, read books, read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles!" ”

Xu He hurriedly bowed down and thanked him!

When the officials were almost gone, Shen Xuan went to the courtyard outside on behalf of the Shen family to send those rich businessmen and tycoons and some people with heads and faces.

Wang Liangchen introduced Xu He into the inner courtyard of the Xu family.

As he went deeper and deeper, Xu He was even more suspicious in his heart, at this time they had already come to the backyard where the ladies of the Shen family stayed, this was not a place where he could come with a foreign surname.

Just as he was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard a banquet prepared in the brightly lit hall in front of him, and more than a dozen men and women on both sides of the banquet were talking around an old man.

"Thanks for looking for the energy drink of my former brother,

Thanks brothers for the gifts!

Thank you for your monthly pass support!

I'm honored to be able to read this book, brothers, just give a free gift, thank you brothers for always being so supportive, it's too expensive!"
