Aoyama Chronicle

The atmosphere after the banquet was not as dull as imagined, on the contrary, it was very lively. There were even dancers in the center who came to perform.Those ministers, headed by Mr. Shen, were more noisy than one, and it didn't take long for them to start drinking.

At first, the Holy One was given a drink, and all the Xinke Jinshi also toasted and drank a drink.Then Mr. Shen and the others wanted to pay respects to a few more princes, and then everyone had another drink.Next, we had to respect King Anle. Needless to say, everyone continued to drink together, and three cups were already down in one go.

It was only at this time that Zhong Yiwen realized that King An Le had also come over today. If he hadn't just made a toast to him, Zhong Yiwen probably wouldn't have found out.An Le Wang sat very low-key and sat next to the Holy Majesty, hardly saying anything.Beside him and across from him were the crown prince and several princes. The prince and his four brothers were very lively and kept trying to persuade each other to drink.The Holy Majesty sat not far away, watched the four of them making a fuss and did not speak.

The prince doesn't look much like the other three princes.The second prince looks about 24 to [-] years old, handsome, tall, with a hulking back, looks more like King An Le than the current Holy Majesty.It is said that the second prince's Ah Mo was born very tall, so the second prince should follow his example.The appearance of the crown prince is a bit plain, he can barely be regarded as Zhou Zheng, he doesn't look like the current emperor, and he probably doesn't look like his Empress Amoxian, Lin Shi.The fourth prince is somewhat similar to today's Shengshang, delicate and white, like a scholar.The last seventh prince is the most handsome among the four brothers, and he loves to laugh very much, with a naughty look.

Apart from the four princes, there are six princesses. The first four princesses are all married, and there are still two princesses left in the palace, but they are all under ten years old.

Zhong Yiwen knew that he didn't have a good capacity for alcohol, so he didn't dare to drink more, and he didn't usually have the habit of drinking at home, so he drank three cups before eating anything, and he was overwhelmed in a short while.Not only was his head a little dizzy, but his face was also slightly red.

Although many people did not take the initiative to get close to Zhong Yiwen, but there are indeed many people who pay attention to him.Now Zhong Yiwen's appearance naturally makes people see clearly, a complete picture of a drunken beauty.

The prince and the others also noticed Zhong Yiwen's drunken state, and they were a little dazed, they didn't expect Zhuangyuan Lang's drinking capacity to be so bad.The prince gave some color to the brothers around him: "Let's go to say hello to Xin Ke Zhuang Scholar, how about it?"

"Okay, okay!" The Seventh Prince was the first to respond happily.The other two also nodded.

In fact, the three of them wanted to win over Zhong Yiwen as early as when the results of the examination came out, but they didn't take any action because they found out that Zhong Yiwen was actually related to Anle Palace.If Zhong Yiwen knew that it was because of Prince Anle's mansion that the princes did not get along with him, he would add another crime to Prince Anle and the others.From being forced to visit Mr. Jiang and Mr. Lu before the test, to being called out by King Anle to warn him after the test, plus the comments about him in the capital, which one has nothing to do with Prince Anle's mansion.

Now, Zhong Yiwen is the number one scholar, the prince and the others won't shy away from it a lot, after all Zhong Yiwen's personal talent is appreciated by them all.Although the crown prince didn't like Zhong Yiwen, he naturally wouldn't show it on the surface at this time, but his dislike didn't mean that Zhong Yiwen might be drawn over by others.

With such a mood in mind, the prince led his brothers to get up, not afraid of being seen by others, and walked to Zhong Yiwen's side with a wine glass.

Zhong Yiwen was at the moment when his head was dizzy, and when he saw someone suddenly coming in front of him, and it was the prince and the others, he stood up immediately enduring the discomfort, and greeted him with a salute: "His Royal Highness, Second Prince, Fourth Prince , His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince."

"Zhuangyuanlang, your name, my brothers have heard of it for a long time. When I saw it today, it really deserves the reputation. Today I saw that Zhuangyuanlang himself is about the same age as us, and I couldn't help but want to make friends, so I came here to say hello to you. In the future Please give me some advice from the talented number one scholar!" The crown prince's words were only treated as if Zhong Yiwen was a friend, at least it gave people the most direct feeling that he was a corporal.

Zhong Yiwen's heart skipped a beat, and his mind suddenly cleared up a lot. His heart was not good, and he didn't know when he had offended the crown prince and gave him such a big hat, but on the surface he was still sincere and fearful: "Thank you, my lord." The crown prince and several princes value it, but the word 'guidance' is really not worthy of it."

"Then it won't be a problem to compete with us!" The Seventh Prince said with a smile, "Come on, come on, come on, let's talk about the rest later, of course the happiest thing today is to congratulate Zhuangyuanlang High School, please!"

The Seventh Prince raised his glass to respect Zhong Yiwen, and the others naturally raised their glasses without saying anything else.

How could Zhong Yiwen fail to see what the Seventh Prince meant for him, and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Your Highnesses, I'll do it first, please!"

In front of the princes, Zhong Yiwen drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.The princes were not far behind, and drank all the wine in their cups in one gulp.

The few princes who were supposed to go back to their seats after drinking, but under the teasing of the seventh prince who loves to laugh and play, went around the place and toasted the second place and Tanhua, and then jointly offered to all the remaining new scholars We toasted.Starting from them, the entire Luming Banquet set off a second wave of toasting*, of course, it is not a group of people's toasting, but a small wave of toasting.

Naturally, Zhong Yiwen, the number one scholar, couldn't escape.After a while, I was congratulated by the crowd who came up in turn, and was toasted five or six times.But now he is also smart, he only takes a small sip each time, and contributes the rest to the black cloak he brought.Of course, this matter is naturally done seamlessly, so that people can't see the clues.It is really not easy for Zhong Yiwen to maintain his sobriety by cutting corners in this way.

"Brother Zhong, you have a good drinker!" Ding He and Tanhua Hu Weijun, who were sitting opposite Zhong Yiwen, also ran over to have a drink with Zhong Yiwen.The two of them were obviously drunk with Zhong Yiwen, but they still supported drinking so much, they really admired it.

In fact, Zhong Yiwen is suffering and can't tell now. Although he is cutting corners now, he rarely makes more. Such a small mouthful of microphones is actually quite a lot.Now I can still hold on and not fall, it is purely the willpower that persists, and I can't lose my dignity.

Seeing the lively scene below, the Holy Majesty also knew that he might not be able to enjoy himself with these people, so he stopped sitting and waved to Eunuch De next to him: "Let them young people go and play, I will leave first Xiao Dezi, you stay here and help take care of the aftermath."

"Yes, this servant obeys. Respectfully send off to the emperor!" Eunuch De saluted.

His Majesty's departure didn't cause any big commotion, he just went out through the side door.Lord Lu, Lord Shen, and King An Le, who were sitting relatively close to the Holy Majesty, all noticed it.Mr. Lu didn't like this kind of entertainment in the first place, so he almost separated from the Holy Majesty.Several other older ministers looked at each other, finally nodded and left quietly together.On the contrary, Wang An Le and Lord Shen still kept it.In the end, only two or three ministers remained.

Mr. Jiang Mojiang is one of the remaining ministers.He didn't continue to sit there anymore, and went to find Zhong Yiwen with the wine glass.He already knew about Tanhua yesterday, and he didn't have time to ask Tanhualang, so it must be Zhong Yiwen's help.Hearing that everyone in the capital is now discussing his family's Huahaoren, Mr. Jiang also felt very honored, and even the Holy Majesty even praised him this morning.Master Jiang's mood can be imagined.

When Mr. Jiang passed by, Zhong Yiwen was being toasted by several people, and he happened to see Zhong Yiwen's tricks clearly from his perspective.

This kid is so courageous, he even dared to cheat at the Lu Ming Banquet.

Mr. Jiang did not expose Zhong Yiwen's intentions, but walked directly to Zhong Yiwen's side, and communicated with Zhong Yiwen.

Zhong Yiwen is really a little drunk now, he only vaguely saw a person sitting next to him, and after a closer look, his brain took a while to recognize who this person was: "It turned out to be Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang, can you tell me who it is?" You can't drink to me anymore, I can't drink anymore, if I drink again, I will definitely get drunk!"

I see you are quite drunk now.Forget it, Lord Jiang secretly took out a mouthful of black pills, and handed them to Zhong Yiwen: "Zhuangyuanlang, this is a hangover pill, take it quickly, and don't let anyone see it!"

Mr. Jiang himself is also a person who can't drink, but how can he push it after entering the officialdom.At first, he was drunk every time, and then the next day he had a headache.Later, it was his husband who found an old doctor who took the prescription of this hangover medicine, and used more than a dozen kinds of precious medicinal materials to make this hangover pill.After that, as long as there was a banquet, Mr. Jiang would definitely take one with him. When the wine was almost drunk, he would secretly eat it to ensure that he would wake up as soon as the wind blows, and there would be no sequelae the next day.

Today, Mr. Jiang also brought a hangover pill, but he didn't drink a few glasses of wine today, so the hangover pill was cheaper than Zhong Yiwen.

Zhong Yiwen was not polite, and directly swallowed the hangover pill, feeling a sudden coolness in his mouth and throat, which were originally hot.It really is a good thing!Zhong Yiwen has already considered that he must get some more from Mr. Jiang's house in the future, and there will be more opportunities to drink in the future. It is impossible for him to cheat like this every time.It’s okay in winter, just put it on a cloak or thick clothes, what can I do in summer.

Master Jiang didn't know that Zhong Yiwen had already decided on his hangover pills, and after sitting for a while, he got up and bid farewell to Zhong Yiwen and left.He had already greeted Zhong Yiwen, and also contributed a precious hangover pill to help Zhong Yiwen, and he also planned to go home.
