Rise From the Humble

The direction of the wind on the wine table changed quietly after Zhu Pingan took the initiative to toast, and did not blow on Zhu Pingan for the time being.

The wine table was full of wine, people were impassioned, and Yan Shifan's arrogance became more and more intense, especially after everyone toasted him one by one, he was even more arrogant. Regardless of the official position of the person at the wine table, or the age of the person at the wine table, Yan Shifan is always high-minded and bossy. Even if they are older members of the Yan Party, Yan Shifan has no intention of respecting them.

Shen Lian was the only person at the wine table who dared not to hang on to Yan Shifan. Although Shen Lian's official position was only Jinyiwei's experience, at best he was only a grassroots cadre of Jinyiwei, but Shen Lian had a backer. He got the highest official of Jinyiwei Lu Bing Appreciated and valued.

Yan Shifan also has some scruples about Shen Lian. Apart from being scruples about Lu Bing, the commander of Jinyiwei, Shen Lian's character is also on the one hand. Shen Lian works in Jinyiwei. ;In addition, this character is jealous of evil and hates evil, and will speak out against injustice. He is destined not to be a law-abiding Jinyiwei. He is in Jinyiwei and his heart is in the speech officer.

Theoretically speaking, Shen Lian's character is not easy to mix in Jinyiwei. He always writes to officials and counselors, and easily offends others; however, there are exceptions to everything. Shen Lian not only firmly established himself in Jinyiwei, but also The reason for the momentum of promotion is that his character and ability have been appreciated by the commander of Jinyiwei, Lu Bing. Lu Bing thinks that Shen Lian is a talent, so he protects him more. In many activities and actions, such as this small grace feast, Lu Bing took Shen Lian with him, intending to train Shen Lian and prepare for future reuse.

Yan Shifan is a smart person. He can see Lu Bing's intentions clearly, so he treats Shen Lian differently from others. He also turns a blind eye to some uncooperative behaviors and actions of Shen Lian. It was to give Lu Bing face.

Exceptions to Shen Lian do not mean exceptions to others, including our own people, including Zhu Pingan

After drinking a few more glasses of wine, Yan Shifan felt upset, so he waved his hands and signaled the servants who were serving at Xiao Enrong Banquet to fetch some giant bottles.

After the maid brought the giant bottle, Zhu Pingan took a look and was a little confused. The whole body of the giant bottle was made of gold, and it looked like a retro three-legged wine bottle, but it definitely could be called "giant". It is twice the size of an ordinary teacup, and this cup is enough to bear! The average person can drink a lot, and this drink will make him drunk, let alone himself.

"Hahaha, this is delicious."

The short, fat Yan Shifan, with one eye exuding a domineering luster, laughed out loud as he looked at the giant bottle as if no one was around.

Looking at the somewhat dodgy eyes of the crowd, the gleam in Yan Shifan's one-eyed eyes became even more excited. The most exciting thing in the world is the fearful eyes of others.

Yan Shifan's one-eyed glanced at the crowd, looking for the first person to drink from a giant bottle. When his one-eyed eye saw there, he was as frightened as a bird or beast.

"Zi Hou is the champion, the first in the imperial examination, this first bottle of wine should be used first by the number one scholar." Yan Shifan squinted his one eye slightly, and glanced at Zhu Ping'an like a falcon.

As soon as Yan Shifan said this, Luo Longwen who was sitting on the side was the first to respond, saying that a good horse matches a good saddle, and a good wine matches a champion. He fanned the flames and looked at Zhu Ping'an interestingly, wanting to see what Zhu Ping'an would do reaction.

He knew that Zhu Ping'an didn't drink very much.

Other people at the wine table were also watching Zhu Ping'an's reaction.

Zhu Pingan was not at all surprised by Yan Shifan's behavior. As early as when he received the invitation to Yan's Xiaoenrong Banquet, Zhu Pingan was mentally prepared. How much preparation did Yan Shifan make for Ouyang Zishi to win the first prize? It is conceivable that Yan Shifan must have more preparations in other places besides a series of behaviors towards himself, such as finding a breakthrough from the examiner and studying Emperor Jiajing's recent A series of travel, guess possible questions and so on. Everything was ready, and it turned out that the champion was allowed to give it to himself. No wonder Yan Shifan was happy.

Yan Shifan, Zhu Pingan knew a lot about Yan Shifan in history books and unofficial histories before, and knew his nature and habits. Why at least half of the world is on his shoulders.

The conceit which this entitlement entails is generally incapable of hearing dissenting opinions, let alone acts of dissent.

This bottle of wine, I have only two choices: one is to drink it so readily; the other is to find a bunch of reasons to refuse, and then I have to be forced to drink it, and I will be fined.

After thinking about it, Zhu Pingan had a choice.

"I drink very little. If I drink too much later, if there is something inappropriate, please criticize me, seniors, and Lord Yan protect me."

Zhu Ping got up and took a full bottle of wine from the maid, smiled slightly and bowed his hands to everyone.

Before the words were finished, everyone present was delighted to see Zhu Ping'an, who actually spoke so freshly and refinedly when he was drunk. Seniors criticize me, Lord Yan protects me, this kind of contrast is really interesting.

After listening to Zhu Ping'an's words, Yan Shifan pointed at Zhu Ping'an with a fat finger and smiled, "You are honest, yes, don't worry, I will help you if the sky falls."

"Thank you, Master Yan."

Zhu Pingan bowed his hands to Yan Shifan, and when he was about to drink, he suddenly stopped.

what happened again? Luo Longwen looked at Zhu Ping'an impatiently.

"Uh, can you share that caviar with me? Ahem, Pingan comes from the countryside and I have never seen such delicacies." Zhu Pingan said a little embarrassed.

Well

Is it because he is worried that he will get drunk later and not be able to eat the caviar he has been coveting for a long time?

Hahaha

When everyone saw this, they remembered the title of Zhu Ping'an who was the loser Zaiyu when he was taking the imperial examination in Nanzhili, which had been circulated a few days ago, and couldn't help laughing, especially Luo Longwen, who laughed the loudest.

"Zihou, you are really honest and simple." Yan Shifan couldn't help but smile, and then waved his fat hand to signal the maid on one side to take the caviar and Zhu Pingan in the middle of the table.

"Thank you, Master Yan, for your kindness."

When everyone's attention was focused on the caviar, Zhu Ping'an thanked him softly, picked up the wine glass with one hand, and waved his wide sleeves with the other hand to pass around the other side, and also fell on the wine glass. The two sleeves just blocked everyone's sight. , in the process of raising the wine glass, he quickly tilted the wine glass, and poured the wine in the wine bottle down the sleeve.

When the caviar was brought to Zhu Pingan by the maid, and everyone's eyes fell on Zhu Pingan, Zhu Pingan had already finished drinking the wine in the wine bottle, and tipped the bottle upside down with a swipe of his mouth, indicating that there was not a drop of wine in the bottle. Sat down.
