Rise From the Humble

Chapter 375: Small Grace Banquet

The invitation that others were jealous of was like a hot potato in Zhu Pingan's hands. If possible, Zhu Pingan really wanted to give this invitation to others.

Let's not talk about Ouyang Zishi. Just thinking about the way Miss Yan Er threw her shoes on the second floor facing the street when she praised her officials on the imperial street is definitely enough to make her walk around without food.

If Miss Yan Er told Yan Song or Yan Shifan that she accidentally spied on her taking a bath, but in this feudal society, girls attach great importance to honor and integrity, Miss Yan Er probably wouldn't say anything.

However, what if it is said?

It's so sour, I can't even imagine it.

By the way, it's not too late to get "drunk" now, well, I guess it's too late, I've already accepted the invitations. Based on the behavior of the fat man Yan Shifan who invited him to a banquet at Zhuangyuan Tower last time, it is estimated that even if he is really drunk, he will be carried to Yan's Mansion.

It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided. Helpless, Zhu Ping'an had no choice but to say goodbye to Zhang Siwei, asked him to take good care of Wang Shizhen, and then went to Yan's Mansion with others.

The scale of Yan's small enrong banquet was smaller than that of the big enrong banquet because the number of people was much smaller, about thirty people in total. In addition to Zhu Ping'an, nine other newly promoted Jinshi were invited, and the rest of the people in the Yan Mansion were all officials.

There are more than one person Zhu Ping'an knows here. One is Zhang Juzheng, whom he met at Xu Jie's house, and the other is the Feiyu uniform Jinyiwei who he met shortly after arriving in the capital and is responsible for handling the money bag dispute. It seems that his companion is called He experienced it deeply.

By the way, isn’t it true that Mr. Shen disliked Yan Song very much? At that time, he even called Yan Song the number one person to die, mocking Yan Song as saying, “When you look at Prime Minister Yan, you must use rich people.” Why did he come to attend Yan Song’s small favor banquet? Here it comes.

Also, who is the middle-aged man wearing a bullfight uniform sitting in front of this experienced Shen? I have to say that this man is really eye-catching. He is tall, his skin seems to be like a ball of fire, and his face is also dark red. I feel that Guan Yu from the Three Kingdoms period just had this skin color.

This small enrong banquet was invited by Yan Song, but it was actually Yan Shifan who was in charge.

Yan Song showed his nakedness at the beginning, said congratulations to Zhu Ping'an and others, said a few words to the officials present, excused himself from feeling unwell, and handed over the hosting of the banquet to his son Yan Shifan. .

"Mr. Lu, I still have something to ask Mr. Lu. I wonder if I can move here in my honor?" Before Yan Song left, he walked up to the middle-aged man in a bullfight suit and asked.

"Master Yan, you're welcome. Master Yan has something to do, so there's no need to ask for advice. Lu should know that I won't say anything and I won't stop talking." The middle-aged man in a bullfight uniform smiled slightly, stood up and bowed his hand to Yan Song.

After the two whispered a few words to each other, the man in the bullfight uniform left the banquet with Yan Song.

When he heard Yan Song call the middle-aged man in bullfight uniform, Mr. Lu, Zhu Pingan vaguely guessed the identity of the middle-aged man in bullfight uniform.

Wearing a bullfight uniform, the man with the surname Lu sat next to him. He was closely related to Jin Yiwei, and he was at least in a much higher position than Shen. This could be seen from Yan Song's attitude towards him just now.

In the Jiajing Dynasty, the only person with the surname Lu who was related to the Jinyiwei and had a high position was Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyiwei. Lu Bing, this is another historical genius. It is said that Lu Bing got close to Yan Song and his son in the process of dealing with Xia Yan, and the relationship has been good since then, and it seems to be true now.

"Chunfu, you can go back on your own after the banquet. You don't have to wait for me." Lu Bing said to the guard in Feiyu uniform before he left. He didn't seem to be surprised at all by Yan Song's invitation just now.

Chunfu?

Shen Chunfu?

Zhu Pingan was stunned on the spot when he heard Lu Bing calling him "Jinyiwei". Shen Chunfu, isn't your sister's Shen Lian? ! Besides Yang Jisheng, Shen Lian was the more famous person who impeached Yan Song in the Ming Dynasty.

According to historical records, Shen Lian was a Jinshi, served as a county magistrate, and was a royal guard. He was upright and hated evil, and was highly appreciated by Lu Bing. It was probably because of Lu Bing's appreciation that Shen Lian was invited to the banquet of the Yan Mansion.

In fact, you can understand it if you think about it. Shen Lian was born as a Jinshi, and he is outstanding among the Jinyiwei. He writes manuscripts, makes case files, etc. Who among the Jinyiwei can compare to Shen Lian, who was born as a Jinshi. This is undoubtedly outstanding in the Jinyiwei system. Yes, it is understandable that Lu Bing appreciates it, not to mention that Lu Bing appreciates scholars.

After Yan Song and Lu Bing left, Yan Shifan hosted the small favor banquet. Because Zhu Ping'an was the number one scholar, his seat at this banquet was also arranged to be at the front of the table with Yan Shifan and the others.

It was fine at first, but after three rounds of drinking, things got a little out of control. The source of the loss of control was Yan Shifan.

After Yan Shifan drank for three rounds, he let go, shouted for six drinks, and made a loud voice. He often asked people to drink. He had no restraint and was particularly lacking in quality.

Bear the brunt of Zhu Pingan.

"Come, let's toast our champion." Yan Shifan sat on his seat, stretched out his fat hand like a pig's trotter, pointed at Zhu Pingan, and suggested to everyone at the same table.

"Good." Everyone at the same table responded one after another.

Then Zhu Pingan had to drink a glass of wine. He had no choice but to drink in front of everyone. After drinking, Zhu Ping'an relaxed a little. From now on, it seems that Miss Yan Er did not tell Yan Song and his son that she accidentally spied on her taking a bath. This is good news.

"Zi Hou, I am very happy to win the No. 1 Scholarship in Enke in my weak year. Now that I think about it, the last time I tried my best with you in the No. 1 Scholar Building, it was a good sign for the No. 1 Scholar Building. What do you think?" Yan Shifan shouted. After drinking, he stuffed a piece of venison in his mouth and chewed, looked at Zhu Ping'an and asked.

"Of course, it's safe. Thank you, Mr. Yan."

Zhu Ping'an slightly arched his hands, smiling on his face, but in his heart he slandered, "How shameless. How dare you have the nerve to say that, how could you walk so vigorously from morning to late at night, not to mention Wei Guogong next door?" The house's firecrackers were blaring all night long, and it was impossible to sleep. If it weren't for the ginseng that Li Shu asked Baozi's maid to give him during the exam the next day, he wouldn't have cried in this exam.

But in the end, Ouyang Zishi didn't even make it to the first place, but he won the first prize. Probably this was something Yan Shifan didn't expect. The agency was too clever in its calculations, but it cost Qing Qing her life. In fact, thinking about the result, Zhu Pingan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.
