Ye Xingyuan was quite speechless about this, he didn't expect that when he first arrived in your realm, someone would immediately come to the door, and it was not the provincial officialdom he was worried about before, but it was a romantic debt left by Tang Shiyan. Sure enough, it was the villain's revenge, from morning till night.

After a sigh, Ye Xingyuan said: "This Li Xin is obviously prepared, and he wants to give his seniors a dismount." Since this is the case, I accompanied my seniors to participate in the literary meeting to make a strong appearance. ”

Originally, Ye Xingyuan didn't want to go, he just wanted to participate in the provincial test in a low-key manner, and he didn't want to show his head in the limelight. Similar to this kind of literary meeting, as long as he doesn't find his head by name, he will definitely push it.

But to be a man, you always have to talk about righteousness, Tang Shiyan can be regarded as a friend, and he has always taken good care of himself. Seeing his friend in trouble, standing by is not his Ye Xingyuan's style.

Tang Shiyan was greatly moved, shook his head and said: "The virtuous brother is righteous and thin, and he deserves the name of 'timely rain', but they didn't invite you, why bother to go with the brother to embarrass people? ”

Damn! Ye Xingyuan couldn't help but complain a few words, he was kind enough to help, how could he definitely be "embarrassed"? But looking at Tang Shiyan's expression, Ye Xingyuan suddenly figured it out, no wonder Brother Tang didn't believe in himself.

Although he Ye Xingyuan County Test and Government Test are both the head of the case, neither of the two articles has been circulated, and he rarely writes articles.

Moreover, when Ye Xingyuan and Tang Shiyan interacted, he only talked about Fengyue and did not talk about current strategies, and in Tang Shiyan's heart, he probably still classified Ye Xingyuan as a literary and artistic talent, and he didn't think how good Ye Xingyuan was at writing papers.

Therefore, Tang Shiyan didn't know what the level of Ye Xingyuan's current literature was, and even few people in the entire provincial capital knew. At this time, of course, he was worried that Ye Xingyuan would be "embarrassed" by himself.

Ye Xingyuan smiled bitterly, and only said: "Seniors, the so-called three stinkers, beat Zhuge Liang, one is short, and the other is long, and we will go together." If you encounter any problems, you can also discuss them with each other. ”

Tang Shiyan sighed, "Having said that, the virtuous brother doesn't know that Li Xin is tricky. In this meeting, we must be deliberately targeted. I can't wait to prevent it, so I'll just leave it at that. ”

He turned his head and said to the guy who came in with the invitation: "Please tell Master Mu that Master Tang only arrived in the provincial capital today, and he was tired of traveling and driving." I'm a little tired and plan to rest for a few days. I don't want to go to this article, thank you for your kindness on my behalf. ”

The guy nodded and said, "Don't worry about Xianggong Tang, the person who sent the invitation specially left a message, saying that if Xianggong Tang doesn't dare to go, then you don't have to go, and Mr. Li Xin Li will explain to Master Mu." ”

Who doesn't dare to go? What can Li Xin say? What good things can Li Xin say if he adds oil and vinegar? Tang Shiyan fell for the trick of the general, and immediately became furious, slapped the table and said: "Go, go! Old Tang is not a person who is afraid of things! You go and talk back." Let's just say that Old Tang will be there that day!"

Such a simple agitation plan can be eaten hard? Ye Xingyuan was beside him and increased his forehead with his hand, speechless for a long time. Tang Shiyan is still a talented literati in the end, and the other party is just like a primary school student talking, can he also provoke him?

Originally, Ye Xingyuan thought that Tang Shiyan's willingness to endure was not necessarily a bad thing, it saved a lot of trouble, as long as it didn't delay the provincial test, it didn't matter. Unexpectedly, he fell for the trick again in the blink of an eye, and it seemed that he still had to go with it......

Thinking of this, Ye Xingyuan smiled and said: "The water comes to cover the earth, and the soldiers come to block it, so I will follow my predecessors." Let's see what kind of three-headed and six-armed figure this Li Xin is. ”

Tang Shiyan was angry and agreed, originally a little weak-hearted, but seeing Ye Xingyuan relaxed, he couldn't help but feel a lot relieved. But after all, I didn't have much hope for this virtuous brother's article. After a few more drinks, he went back to his room and sighed for a long time.

didn't mention it, but said that three days later it was the period of the cultural meeting, and Mu Million sent a car to pick it up. Mu Million's family is wealthy, and he is not stingy in this regard, and he is a scholar who gets an invitation. can enjoy such treatment.

Tang Shiyan was uncertain, his face was still stiff, tense and tight, and he couldn't see any worry. Ye Xingyuan followed Tang Shiyan to board the car, walked through the streets and alleys, and walked out of the south city gate. And they walked three or four miles, and came into a garden. From afar, I saw the peach blossoms in full bloom, and the sea of flowers everywhere was dazzling.

Mu million is not bad for money, this peach blossom is a mundane variety, but the peach orchard is dozens of acres, and it covers a vast area. In the peach blossom forest, Mu million bought a peach blossom banquet, and the fragrance of wine hit people, quite the style of the ancients.

"This idea must have been Li Xin's idea, the vassal is elegant, and the villain is ambitious, it is really hateful!" Tang Shiyan scolded in a low voice.

He was actually jealous, and when he smelled the fragrance of peach blossom wine, the gluttony came to his mouth, and he almost drooled. He was selling wine in the Han River, and his money was not very loose, but the enemy Li Xin became the richest man in the provincial capital, and he lived a free life.

Ye Xingyuan was leisurely, and calmly estimated the scale of the peach blossom forest. This place is not far from the city, and it is surrounded by fertile land, and the land price must be expensive. According to Tang Shiyan, there was no such peach forest outside the city before, and it was clear that Mu million returned to farmland to plant peaches, and there was only such a grand scene in spring.

This Mu family is really rich! Ye Xingyuan could only exclaim, the gap between the rich and the poor in this Xuanyuan world is really big enough, I really can't imagine that Mu Wanyi is a businessman, and he has no magical powers, what kind of powerful means can he keep such a large family business?

I heard that Mu Million only has one daughter under his knees, and after he drives the crane to the west, he is afraid that Wanguan's family wealth will be wasted, so he wants to take this opportunity to recruit a son-in-law who can advance in the imperial examination to ensure that this wealth will be passed on from generation to generation?

Ye Xingyuan was thinking wildly, speculating on Mu Million's thoughts. The carriage was not slow, all the way through the peach forest, only to see the colorful flowers falling outside the window, and there was no end in sight.

"Tang Shiyan, the head of the four great talents of Hanjiang Mansion, Tang Xianggong has arrived. The carriage stopped in front of a pavilion, and immediately someone called it.

When Ye Xingyuan got out of the car, he looked forward, only to see a murmuring stream on one side and a winding wooden corridor on the other. Peach blossoms are covered, pavilions loom, and there is ingenuity in the design.

It seems that Mu Million is not a simple vassal and elegant person, although he is a nouveau riche, but judging from what he has seen so far, there is no vulgarity.

The two got out of the carriage, and a servant led them in, and before they had walked a few steps, they saw a tall man with Eguanbo hurriedly coming out, and laughed loudly, "Brother Tang Xian, I haven't seen you for many years, but I miss my brother very much!"

Ye Xingyuan watched coldly, this person was thin, and although he had a smile on his face, he hid a sense of arrogance that could not be driven away. His eyes were narrow, and the corners of his eyes were raised, as if they were flashing with a cold and cold light.

No need to ask, as soon as he looked at this person's age and appearance, Ye Xingyuan guessed that he was Tang Shiyan's old rival Li Xin. This person became famous very early, and he was quite famous in the provincial capital, and he was famous for his poems when he was a teenager. It's a pity that in the past ten years, the imperial examination has not been able to go further.

However, this person is much better at camping than Tang Shiyan, unlike Tang Shiyan, who is really hidden and idle. After failing the imperial examination for many years, Li Xin has always wanted to take a shortcut to the south, making friends with various powerful people under the guise of mountain people and scholars, and he is a guest of countless Zhumen. Among them, Mu Million is the richest, and he is also the most important financier of Li Xin.

"Brother Li has been absent for a long time. "Tang Shiyan's city government is not as good as the other party, it is impossible to hate it in his heart, on the surface, he is good to me, he only said a faint perfunctory sentence, and he didn't even bother to introduce it to Ye Xingyuan.

Although Tang Shiyan was not stable in his heart, he was worried that he would make a fool of himself and affect Ye Xingyuan for a while, but he had the ability to pretend to be forced for many years, otherwise it would be impossible to mix into the four great talents of the Han River, so his face was still tight.

Li Xin's gaze swept lightly over Ye Xingyuan, seeing that he was young, he only regarded him as a junior brought by Tang Shiyan, and he didn't take it to heart. He only pretended to be affectionate and supported Tang Shiyan's forearm, and said with a smile: "I said goodbye that day, I haven't seen you for six or seven years, right? Brother Tang Xian is still as plump as ever, but he has been reduced for his brother." ”

Ye Xingyuan couldn't even look at it, Tang Shiyan was originally a little fat, and he had indulged in lust all these years, but he didn't lose weight, but he had a little belly.

In contrast, Li Xin's appearance is much better, although he is two years older than Tang Shiyan, he looks energetic, his figure is well maintained, and he holds a feather fan in his hand, but he has a bit of the demeanor of a fairy. If you don't know his true character, listen to his conversation and look at his appearance, maybe you really think that he is a master in the forest.

Tang Shiyan was already upset, and when he heard the other party attacking his body, he was even more angry, but he didn't know how to fight back.

So Ye Xingyuan took the initiative to take the talk, and said leisurely: "The saint has clouds, a wide heart and a fat body, if this senior doesn't worry too much about state affairs, he will probably be able to relax his mind and not be disfigured." ”

Li Xin was stunned, and then he was looking at Ye Xingyuan. This young man is much sharper than Master Tang's sharp teeth, he is just showing off his talent and fame, which state affairs are he worried about?

The so-called thief has a weak heart, and he is afraid that others will break his ugly things, Ye Xingyuan's words are only slightly sarcastic, and listening to Li Xin's ears is seven points of provocation. He let go of the hand holding Tang Shiyan, and said with a smile: "I haven't asked this little brother for his name." ”

Ye Xingyuan gave up his hand indifferently, "The younger generation returned to the county Ye Xingyuan, a nobody, accompanied the Tang seniors, just to increase their knowledge." ”

Ye Xingyuan's name sounded familiar, but Li Xin didn't think much about it, after all, he was only at this age, what experience could he have, so he smiled and said: "It turned out to be a young talent, Brother Tang Xian is now making friends all over the place, no wonder he looks so young." ”

He Li Xin is a great Confucian, there is no white correspondence, and he does not enter the door of the non-powerful. Tang Shiyan could only mix with the younger generations, and he also saw his fall, and after the comparison, Li became more and more proud.

What's the use of this young man's hard mouth? Later, at the peach blossom banquet, Cewen will fight, what kind of insight can this kind of young man who has never been out a few times and only reads dead books at home? At best, he is just embarrassed to accompany Tang Shiyan.

Tang Shiyan has also been worried about this, hearing Ye Xingyuan ridiculing Li Xin, although he was happy in his heart and grateful for his righteousness, but the worry in his heart was even deeper.

After that, there was no word, and the two accompanied Li Xin inside. I saw that dozens of scholars had already entered the table first, and Mu Million was sitting on the main seat, his eyes half-open and half-closed, as if he was dozing off. (To be continued.) )
