(If you have something today, you will have a change, and you will make up for it tomorrow!)

In the evening, the wind is gentle, dry and cold......

Ye Rongtong bathed and changed clothes, and his clothes came to call Chen Sanlang. followed by a companion, named "Ah Feng", who was born to the Ye family, who was strong and powerful. This way to Chang'an, he is equivalent to Ye Rongtong's bodyguard, loyal to protection.

"Dao Yuan, let's go, don't be late, they have something to say, saying that we are afraid and dare not go......"

Chen Sanlang nodded and went downstairs with him.

On the first floor of the inn, there are some guests eating and drinking - because there is still a long time before the test, there are not many people rushing to Chang'an now, so there are many tourists living in the Yunlai Inn at present, such as businessmen.

Whew!

Suddenly, seven or eight people poured in outside, leading one who was born rich, with a big waist and a round waist, a brocade robe, and a mink coat, strode to the counter, pointed to the shopkeeper and shouted: "Money shopkeeper, you don't understand reason." ”

When the money shopkeeper saw him, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Master Cai, what do you have to say?"

Master Cai couldn't hold back his anger: "Money shopkeeper, don't pretend to be confused." Just now my little servant came to fetch wine, did you tell him that the altar of bamboo leaves was sold to someone else?"

"Not bad. ”

Syllable!

Boss Cai slapped on the counter and almost shouted: "I see that your inn is trying to close!"

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Master Cai, listen to the old man's explanation......"

"Don't talk nonsense, who did you sell to? I want to see, who hasn't shown their tricks in this film, and came to grab wine from me?"

The money shopkeeper sighed: "Master Cai." It's just a jar of wine, so why bother to get to the bottom of it?"

Master Cai sneered. Looking at the other party's face, it seemed that he was going to dig out some valuable clues from it. He knows the money shopkeeper well. Dare to brush your own skin and sell the ordered wine to others, which can only mean one thing-

Others will not be less than themselves!

It's just that he, Master Cai, is also a figure with a head and a face in this area, how can he be willing to suffer a dumb loss in a confused situation?

His principle of doing things for others is: the skin can be damaged, but it is necessary to find out who is the loss, and it is even more important to find out whether the other party has such qualifications.

"Hey, Chen Jieyuan, you're down, help my shopkeeper say something. ”

The shopkeeper has sharp eyes. Call.

Chen Sanlang frowned slightly: "What's the matter?"

"Last night's bottle of wine ......"

This little two is a clever person, and he deliberately stopped halfway through his words, but it was enough to point out the relationship between the situation.

Sure enough, Master Cai stared at Chen Sanlang with burning eyes, and saw that his face was very raw. I heard Xiao Er call him "Chen Jieyuan" just now, could it be that he was a person from another province who came to participate in the examination? And it seems that he is still a Xie Yuan......

No, the so-called "Xie Yuan" is more about the good reputation, and the actual status is just a layer higher than that of ordinary people. And a fellow from the provinces, how much did he rely on to get the money shopkeeper to sell him the wine?

As a time-honored brand in Beijing, Yunlai Inn has its own background and origin, and it can eat both black and white. How could he offend Master Cai for the sake of a state and county Xie Yuan?

Something counterintuitive.

Unless Chen Sanlang had someone in the capital and a big backer - but in that case, why would he still live in an inn. Go directly to the backer house to live, the environment is much worse?

It's a bit of a strange thing......

Master Cai looked at Chen Sanlang. Suddenly, he hugged his fists: "The contemptible person's surname is Cai, and the neighbors appreciate their faces." Call 'Master Cai', dare to ask your Excellency's name?"

This tone is quite a Jianghu atmosphere.

Over there, Ye Rongtong heard him report to his home, and he couldn't help but feel a chill, and subconsciously reached out to pull Chen Sanlang's sleeve -

Ye Rongtong has been in Chang'an for a long time, living in Yunlai Inn, in his spare time, wandering the streets, seeing the customs and customs, among which he has heard of Boss Cai's deeds, which is far from being as simple as a bully. All in all, it's the kind of character who can't be lightly messed with, and once it is touched, it will get fishy, or even take off his skin.

In one word, "the snake of the ground".

The huge capital, the water is as deep as the sea, and the weight of the snake in this place is far from being comparable to other places. If it is released, it may belong to the Jiaolong-level storage zài in the locality.

"Kuye, Daoyuan has only been in the capital for a day, how can he be entangled with this local snake?"

Ye Rongtong complained bitterly in his heart.

As a person who came to take the exam, he is famous, and he is not afraid of the other party's messing around, but his hands and feet in secret, if he uses unscrupulous means to make some dirty stumbling blocks, it is enough to eat a pot. Yan zhòng's words affect the test, and he will return, so he must not cry to death?

Inexplicably involved in this matter, Chen Sanlang glanced at the shopkeeper.

When Xiao Er received this look, his heart was empty, and he quickly lowered his head. He and the shopkeeper have the same position, that is, it is not good to be a person in the middle, so he simply picks it up and lets Master Cai and Chen Sanlang say yes in person.

These little tricks, Chen Sanlang's heart brightened, he snorted coldly, and bowed his hand: "I've seen Master Cai, Xiaosheng is from Yangzhou Jing County, surnamed Chen, and the word 'Daoyuan'." ”

Old Man Cai said with a smile: "It turned out to be Chen Juzi, it's like this, the contemptible people ordered a jar of wine at the inn, but the shopkeeper said that it was sold to you last night, but is there such a thing?"

Chen Sanlang shook his head: "There is no such thing." ”

As soon as these words came out, several people's faces changed.

I heard Chen Sanlang say leisurely: "I was going to give money, but the shopkeeper desperately refused to accept it." Since you don't have to spend money, it can't be said to be a sale. ”

When Master Cai heard this, his face changed again: Chen Sanlang's words were clear, and the implication was that he didn't want to buy the wine, but the shopkeeper insisted on sending it.

One sells and one gives, but the meaning is different.

He stared at the money shopkeeper with an ugly face, and said astringently: "Old Qian, what's going on?"

The shopkeeper coughed dryly: "Master Cai, I said it a long time ago, it's just a jar of wine, why bother?"

Old Man Cai took a long breath: "Okay, good ......"

As he spoke, he turned around and left the inn with his entourage. When he got outside, a henchman said: "Cai Ye, I think it's the old man Qian who is playing tricks, we might as well ......"

"Shut up. ”

Master Cai shouted in a low voice: "What do you know......"

After a pause, he sneered: "Hey, this old man Qian has bad intentions, he deliberately wants me to find the stubble surnamed Chen!"

The subordinate was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

"Borrow a knife to kill!"

Said word by word.

"Ah, could it be that Old Man Qian deliberately asked us to get rid of the surname Chen, but it doesn't make sense......"

Master Cai was irritable, and slapped him in the face: "Stupid, it's Old Man Qian who borrowed someone's knife and wants to kill us!"

"What?"

The subordinate couldn't care about the pain in his cheeks, he was surprised, he really couldn't figure out what was going on: Chen Sanlang was just a man who came from Yangzhou to take the exam, and his fame was really nothing in the capital, how could he threaten himself?

Old Master Cai is exquisitely thoughtful, how can he be a brainless person who can mix well in a place like the capital where dragons and snakes are mixed?

"Yes. ”

All the men gave the order and agreed in unison.

In the inn, Ye Rongtong was still a little confused, but when he saw Chen Sanlang striding out of the inn, he hurriedly followed and asked in a low voice: "Daoyuan, what happened?"

Chen Sanlang spread his hands: "If I say I don't know, believe it or not." ”

"I don't believe it. ”

Ye Rongtong shook his head like a rattle.

"Then what are you asking, let's go, I'm going to be late. ”

Ye Rongtong pursed his lips, but he had to suppress the doubts in his heart, but he just looked at Chen Sanlang's eyes, and it was clearly a little different. If it is said that at the Luming banquet, Chen Sanlang dared to speak eloquently in front of Yuan Wenchang, and his face remained unchanged, because of the style of the literati and the unyielding of the powerful, then when he arrived in the capital, he encountered this strange thing on the first day, and it should not be so simple.

On the way, Chen Sanlang casually asked about the Wenhui and gradually understood it clearly.

Next year's spring boudoir will be examined, and the reference can't help but include qualified lifters from various states and counties, as well as the supervisors of the capital Guozijian.

With so many examinees gathered in the capital, it can be said that there are a lot of heroes, and those who come in advance cannot say that they nest in the inn every day to review their homework, and it is inevitable to call friends and recruit friends, walk around, and gradually form a circle. When, at some point, there is some friction and collision between circles, and there is a contradiction.

Scholars pay attention to "gentlemen do not move their hands", they are not convinced by each other, of course, it is impossible to fight, fists and feet are high, then only use poetry and articles to compete, the beautiful name is said: "to meet friends with literature".

Such gatherings, in Chang'an, are held every year of the imperial examination, and they are quite popular. The gatherings are mainly based on the state, county and local units, and the topics are not limited, which is very free. For example, find an elegant place, a group of literati sit there, those from Yangzhou sit together, and those from Mingzhou sit together.

When it began, everyone took turns to discuss the question, and you came and went, arguing and arguing, which was very intense.

Ye Rongtong is a talented man in the south of the Yangtze River, and he has come to participate in the examination for the first time, and his heart is inevitably high. Invited to the party, of course, he will not refuse, and he promised to make a splash at the party, make a name for himself, and leap from a genius in the south of the Yangtze River to a genius in the world in one fell swoop.

However, when he came to the place, among the more than ten people, he was the only one in Yangzhou, and he was very lonely. What's even worse is that the people from all the major states and counties have a natural regional hostility towards Yangzhou, and they are proud to defeat Yangzhou's talents. So, soon Ye Rongtong sadly found himself the target of the public and became a target......

The results can be imagined.

Ye Rongtong returned to the Yunlai Inn with a pitiful wounded heart, and when he saw Chen Sanlang, it was like seeing relatives and rescuers.

"It's not far ahead. ”

At night, the market is brightly lit. Chen Sanlang followed Ye Rongtong, turned two streets, and after about half an hour, he came to the outside of a garden, and saw the words written on the forehead of the gate: "Fish Water Garden".

Seeing that the name was ambiguous and ambiguous, I knew a little bit in my heart, and when I walked in, the red lanterns were hanging high, and there was no doubt about the warblers and swallows.

Isn't this the green building? (To be continued......)
