Chapter 607 Drinking(1/2)

 For a moment, His Majesty Li Er felt a little embarrassed.

After all, this is the best time to divide the gentry in Jiangnan, and His Majesty Li Er does not want to make enemies everywhere.

No matter from any perspective, he, the emperor, needs the support of Guanzhong families such as the Wei family.

So he could only give up his eyes and said, "The beloved concubine is such a bad word. As Xiao Douzi's brother-in-law, Yang Fan naturally treats her as her sister Pang Nu. What's wrong with her being kind to her?"

"Besides, the reason why Changle married together was because Yang Fan was very talented, not because the outside world rumored that Yang Fan loved beauty! Therefore, the beloved concubine said something a little too much!"

Although His Majesty Li Er's face became more and more gloomy, Concubine Wei was not afraid at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "Your Majesty is very much, I have received the teachings!"

"But there is one thing that I don't agree with. According to rumors from outside, Wannian County Duke is a stick that can only move thickly. Such a person married Princess Changle, the noblest and most talented in our royal family. His Majesty said that Changle admires Yang Fan's talent, which is not convincing!"

"Now all the ministers and royal relatives in the court are here, and drinking is boring, so why don't you communicate?"

"On the one hand, we can not only understand the talents of Wannian County Duke, but also deepen our feelings. Why not do it? What does Your Majesty think?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Wenju, who was the most reckless just now, immediately agreed: "The Imperial Concubine said it well. As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. It is said that the county magistrate is unparalleled in the world. As a literati in Jiangnan, I really want to ask for advice. Is the county magistrate dared?"

As soon as this statement was spoken, it immediately attracted everyone's support.

After all, with so many prince consorts, His Majesty Li Er is particularly favored by Yang Fan. Now that he has the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, everyone will certainly not let it go.

Seeing that everyone was in high enthusiasm, His Majesty Li Er didn't have any time to say anything, so he had to say, "The beloved concubine's proposal is very good. Since everyone is so elegant, how can we not be able to drink without orders? Otherwise, what if we do a drink?"

Drinking and practicing orders was a unique way for the ancients to cheer up when drinking.

The drinking order has been around for a long time, and at the beginning, rules were set up to maintain order at the banquet.

It was called "Shang" in the Han Dynasty, which means that the order of the cup was executed at a banquet, and some punishment was imposed on those who did not drink all the wine in the cup. Later, the order of the wine became a custom and became popular among the scholars and officials.

Drinking orders frequently appear during banquets, often write poems and essays to praise them, which can also be called a game for literati.

Now that His Majesty Li Er proposed to perform a drink order, even though Yang Fan was a little unhappy, it was still difficult to object directly.

Concubine Wei immediately echoed proudly: "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. Now the snowflakes are flying, and the plum blossoms are fragrant. How about a flying flower order?"

"The Empress is worthy of being from a scholarly family, and her intention is extraordinary. I agree with you, and I also want to ask the Duke of Wannian County..."

Yang Fan looked around in the voice, but saw that the speaker was about twenty years old, with a tough national face and a thin figure, like a well-educated man.

"This is Wang Jingzhi, the son-in-law of Princess Nanping. His father is Wang Gui..."

Just as Yang Fan was guessing who this person was, a gentle word rang in his ears.

Yang Fan turned his head, but saw that Princess Gaoyang had come behind him at some point, and her red lips moved slightly. She obviously knew that Yang Fan didn't recognize this person and was introducing him.

Yang Fan nodded slightly and directly signaled Li Zhi next to him to give way.

His Highness, King of Jin, was tactful. Although he was very unhappy, he still gave up his position.

There is no way, Li Zhi really has a natural fear of Yang Fan's brother-in-law.

Perhaps to facilitate the convenience of drinking, Li Er immediately adjusted his position to a certain extent.

With the emperor as the center, the prince and the prince consort on both sides are respectively on both sides. The ministers are placed according to their authority in closeness and distantness.

Due to the status of Changle and Princess Gaoyang, Yang Fan, the prince-consort, sat in Li Ke's first position.

Princess Gaoyang stood next to Yang Fan, and Yang Fan sorted out the brocade mats for her, and her careful and considerate care made others envious.

Princess Jinyang sat close to Princess Gaoyang.

After hearing Wang Jingzhi's words, Xu Jingzong immediately instigated: "Nephew Wang is afraid he's drunk too much. People say that Yang Fan is very talented and has him here. For such elegant things as drinking, ordinary people should retreat. How dare you go ahead and count in a arrogant way?"

Xie Wenju immediately joked: "Uncle Xu's words are bad. Although we should have a sense of self-knowledge, but learning is endless, so how can we retreat because of the other party's reputation?"

His words sounded humble, but when he followed Xu Jingzong, he was suspected of being teased and contemptuous.

Who doesn’t know that Xu Jingzong’s eldest son died in the imperial examination? He and Yang Fan had already planted a lot of trouble.

Not long ago, Xu Jingzong was dismissed from his post as the Minister of the Yellow Sect because of the conflict between Yang Fan and the Jiangnan gentry.

Everyone naturally knew that Xu Jingzong wanted Yang Fan to smell bad.

Princess Gao Yang frowned slightly and was about to refute it, but was quietly stopped by Yang Fan.

There is no need for women to get involved in the fight between men.

Although everyone continued to provoke, Yang Fan's face was calm and he was not happy or angry. It was obvious that the purpose of this group of people was also seen.

The people who target him either had hatred for him or were from the Jiangnan gentry.

It seems that these people do not give up and want to discredit his reputation before he goes to Jiangnan.

Seeing that Yang Fan had no response to the attacks of Xu Jingzong and others, everyone booed from time to time.

Actually, it’s not that everyone is not optimistic about Yang Fan, but actually only a few poems by Yang Fan.

Although it has been widely praised, it has been questioned by many great scholars and scholars.

Because the poems and words are simple and plain, the sentences are mostly things of love and love.

Although poetry is good, it always lacks a bit of magnificent background.

Of course, more people's hearts are because of jealousy.

After all, Yang Fan not only held a high position at a young age, but also married two noble princesses, which was of course not popular among others.

Wang Jing patted his forehead and lamented in distress: "I forgot this, so why don't we tie ourselves up?"

"However, Brother Xie, victory or defeat is common in military affairs, not to mention that it is just a literary exchange. At worst, you can lose and drink. If you can have good poetry and wine, it will be a great pleasure in life!"

Yang Fan glanced at this seemingly generous person and thought to himself.

Did this guy laugh at him with the words of Xu Jingzong and Xie Wenju, or was he really an open-minded person?

However, this guy’s father Wang Gui is really a celebrity in history. He is not only one of the four famous ministers of the Tang Dynasty, but also has a very good reputation.

Hearing these people's words, Li Zhi, who had stopped making a sound because he knocked his front teeth and stopped talking at this time, said: "The Wannian County Master is talented and has a superb mind. Although I am young, I can't help but want to listen to some teachings."

This is a magnificent saying, but Yang Fan is so uncomfortable that he can't hear it. This guy is so dark-hearted?

Literati are arrogant and do not accept anyone. Li Zhi said this reasonably, but in fact he was forcing himself to go to Liangshan and cause hatred for himself.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Zhi finished speaking, Yang Fan discovered that there were a few more hatred gazes.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Yang Fan couldn't help but say, "Since your highness knows that he is not dry, he should always be alerted. Since he knows that I am a hero among men, why never see you come to ask for advice on weekdays? Isn't this a contradiction? Lying is not a good character that a good child should have!"

Yang Fan's words were too damaging. He treated Li Zhi as a late reprimand, which made him shorter for a lifetime.

Princess Gaoyang couldn't help but smile in her heart, but she didn't want to be rude, so she had to endure it desperately, and her shoulders were shaking like a knife.

Princess Jinyang stared at her eyes in a daze, but for some reason, Brother Zhinu was crazy and wanted to trouble her brother-in-law.

Li Zhi was stunned at first, then blushed and didn't know how to answer for a while.

I really feel that Yang Fan’s poems are all excellent works, and any one of them can be called a famous work that has been passed down to the world.

Although I just had the idea of ​​making Yang Fan look ugly, I also hoped to attract Yang Fan's attention. After all, this brother-in-law always likes to tease him.

Now Yang Fan actually compared him to an ignorant child, and was immediately embarrassed.

Li Zhi was old, and he had not practiced until his face was invulnerable to swords and guns. He only felt that everyone would look at him with a ridiculous look, so he could only stand up and say, "My brother-in-law has taught me a lesson. I will definitely come to ask for advice from now on. Now the King of Japan's teeth are a little painful, so I will say goodbye first."

Little Siezi quickly persuaded him to stay and said, "Brother Zhinu, my brother-in-law said this for your own good. Why do you care?"

Li Zhi said ashamedly: "My sister Douzi misunderstood. She was not angry because of her brother-in-law's words. On the contrary, it was her brother-in-law's words that woke me up like a sudden enlightenment."

"Learning is endless, and from now on, I will understand it all the time. My father and son are not in good health, so I will leave first..."

After saying that, without waiting for His Majesty Li Er to answer, Li Zhi turned around and left.

Looking at Li Zhi's back as he left, Yang Fan really wanted to curse himself.

This guy pretends to be like a little white rabbit, so shameless?

Although Li Zhi said it nicely, the move to retreat to advance is really good.

In this way, everyone will think that Yang Fan bullies the small for the big.

This guy will be able to ascend the throne in the future, indeed it is not just luck, but he is actually full of bad things...

As expected, after Li Zhi left, almost everyone responded with sympathy and admiration for His Highness King Jin's honesty.

If you are deliberately humiliated and scolded by others, you will not only not be angry and resentful, but you will find your own shortcomings and repent. You are worthy of being a dragon son and a grandson.

There are decent facts and villains. Unfortunately, Yang Fan, who is unreasonable, naturally became a big villain.

Even Changsun Wugui, who had been silent, looked at him with some resentment.

It seems that he is complaining that Yang Fan should not say such heavy words to his youngest son.

His Majesty Li Er also glanced at Yang Fan indifferently. Although his expression was unpredictable, Yang Fan still saw dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Obviously, he also thinks that Yang Fan should not be petty with a child.

This made Yang Fan even more depressed!

Everyone thought that Li Zhi was a harmless little white rabbit?

I'll go!

This kid is so good at acting.
