Yan Yunhe tried hard to hold back the raised corners of his lips and pretended to be calm: "The pot is about to boil. Don't just chat. Eat quickly."

Seeing his appearance, You Liang couldn't help but said: "There's nothing in the pot." There's some meat left, what can we eat?"

On normal days, if You Liang deliberately provokes Yan Yunhe, Fang Zhizhou would usually not care.

Because Yan Yunhe usually would not ask for justice in words, but would catch You Liang and pinch his offensive mouth severely.

You Liang was not strong enough to resist. Every time he was pinched until his eyes turned red, he came to Fang Zhizhou to cry.

But now there is Yu Qin on the table. It would be a bit embarrassing to let the two of them fight childishly.

Fang Zhizhou picked up the serving chopsticks and said, "Whatever you want to eat, I'll serve it to you."

You Liang hummed with satisfaction and instructed Fang Zhizhou to eat more.

The two of them had a tacit agreement not to react in any overly surprised manner to Yu Qin's defense of Yan Yunhe.

After all, these two people knew very well early on what Yan Yunhe had in mind for Yu Qin.

It is indeed surprising that Yu Qin would respond to Yan Yunhe like this.

Fang Zhizhou was surprised, and at the same time a little worried, fearing that Yu Qin's show of kindness to Yan Yunhe had an ulterior motive.

But he believed that Yan Yun could not be so stupid and get everything out of him through a honey trap.

However, if Fang Zhizhou knew that it was not Yu Qin who actually used the honey trap, he would be so frightened that he could not even hold the fan steady.

After finishing a hot pot meal, the four of them came out of the private room in Pepsi Building and walked to the first floor. Before they went out, they bumped into Zhou Chonghua who had just entered Baishi Building.

Zhou Chonghua was leading a group of people into the Baishi Building, talking and laughing, and was stunned for a moment when he saw a few of them gathering together.

You Liang took the initiative and said, "Teacher, what a coincidence, you're here to eat hot pot too?"

Zhou Chonghua stroked his beard and smiled and said, "It's rare to see you two together."

Yan Yunhe said respectfully, "Teacher, are you okay? "

Yu Qin followed behind everyone, bowing his head silently and saluting.

Zhou Chonghua is the dean of Donglin Academy. Although he does not teach students, he rarely appears in the academy on weekdays.

But as the dean of Donglin Academy, which cultivates talented people all over the world, many officials in the court now have to call him "teacher" when they see him. Being highly virtuous and respected is just that.

Zhou Chonghua served in the Hanlin Academy, and Fang Zhizhou had always had contacts with him and had a close relationship with him.

Fang Zhizhou took the initiative and said, "Teacher, I want to drink. Is there a carriage coming? If not, just take my car back."

"I am a student who always likes to worry." Zhou Chonghua's friend next to him said with a smile, He patted Fang Zhizhou on the shoulder and said with appreciation: "Nothing, someone will see me off, you can go back."

After that, Zhou Chonghua led everyone straight to the private room on the second floor.

Yan Yunhe turned around, looked at the people following Zhou Chonghua, and frowned calmly, but he didn't say anything.

Turning around, he met Yu Qin's eyes.

Although they didn't speak, their eyes exchanged for a moment, and then they separated their eyes in a tacit understanding.

Yan Yunhe came on horseback, and Yu Qin did the same.

You Liang couldn't bear the cold, so he boarded his carriage first.

Fang Zhizhou was about to walk to the snack shop, so he said goodbye to everyone. The four of them separated. Yan Yunhe and Yu Qin stood in the lobby, waiting for the boy to bring the horse.

Yan Yunhe took the initiative and asked: "When did the teacher become so close to those admonishers?"

Yu Qin looked at the increasingly cloudy sky outside the window: "Zhang Zheng, who had a close relationship with the teacher before, was also a senior official in the Department of Science and Technology. "One of the people."

When Yan Yunhe mentioned Zhang Zheng, he remembered that the man in front of him had arrested Zhang Zheng before, which made Emperor Cheng Jing unhappy for a long time.

Later, after asking around, I learned that although Zhang Zheng was released intact, he was demoted to a remote area. At this age, I don’t know if there is still a chance to return to Beijing.

"Zhang Zheng is different. Although he is a public official, he is an upright man. He is different from those hypocrites who are just trying to gain fame." Yan Yunhe disagreed.

"You Liang told me that there was a person who criticized someone this morning. Is he among this group of people?" Yan Yunhe asked.

Yu Qin looked at him with a smile and nodded.

Yan Yunhe clicked his tongue and said, "Some of the people in the group turned green when they saw you. If they didn't have any evil intentions, why would the Commander-in-Chief be so scared when they saw us?" "

Qingliu hates Jin Yiwei deeply, they It would be abnormal if his expression didn't change when he saw me. "Yu Qin is very self-aware.

Yan Yunhe was silent for a long time after listening. Yu Qin originally thought that this person was thinking about how to comfort him, but unexpectedly, Yan Yunhe's next sentence was: "Actually, this is okay. After all, when those people look at you, their first reaction is Be afraid, rather than having dirty thoughts."

When they were both in Donglin Academy, the Wanhualou lady of that year was only slightly similar to Yu Qin, and both were sold at high prices by the students.

One can imagine how many people coveted Yu Qin.

Now that Yu Qin is famous for his evil reputation, it actually makes people feel awe.

Yu Qin thought thoughtfully and asked, "Dirty thoughts?"

Yan Yunhe suddenly felt that the most obscene person was himself. First he was drunk, then he disguised himself, and took advantage of Yu Qin several times. Those people just thought about it, he actually did it, and they really have no right to criticize others.

He cleared his throat in embarrassment: "Of course, I am different from them."

Yu Qin looked at him leisurely, as if he wanted to hear what he said about the difference.

Yan Yunhe said solemnly: "If you hadn't taken the initiative first, I would never have done anything to offend a beautiful woman. What's the difference between that and being a disciple?"

Yu Qin's brows trembled slightly: "A disciple?"

Yan Yunhe said today His eloquence seemed to have been boiled together with the hot pot just now, and became extremely bad: "No, I didn't mean to say that you are a scumbag."

Before he could finish his explanation, a boy with two horses came up. Chi, on Yu Qin's horse, the general's bells were ringing.

Yan Yunhe saw it, and before he could secretly rejoice, Yu Qin got on the horse with great skill.

He quickly got on the horse together and followed Yu Qin: "Hanchu, I never meant this. Don't misunderstand me."

Yu Qin said: "Master Yan, there is no need to send it away." After saying that, he rode away with his whip.

Yan Yunhe looked at Yu Qin's back. The joy he felt at being protected by Yu Qin in the Baishi Building suddenly disappeared.

He sighed helplessly, forget it, he was older than Yu Qin, and he was beautiful, so he should give in and suffer more.

Some little tempers are also good, and beauties come alive when they are angry.

After consoling himself, Yan Yunhe turned towards the direction Fang Zhizhou left.

The windows of the private room on the second floor of Baishi Building were gently closed. Zhou Chonghua turned around and toasted with his tablemates.

Yu Qin's horse was no more than two streets away when he saw a familiar carriage waiting quietly on the roadside.

He stopped at the car window and whispered: "I did what you asked me to do. What about what you promised me?"

The car curtain was lifted, and You Liang's face appeared behind the window: "You follow What’s going on in Huaiyang?”

Seeing You Liang's doubtful face, Yu Qin smiled sarcastically: "Master You, don't you understand?"

You Liang looked at him in surprise, and after a long time he said: "Huaiyang has nothing to do with this matter, why should you? " He was involved too deeply and went out of his way to make fun of him. "

Yu Qin said, "Master You really cares about his friends. How could the people from Dali Temple find out about him?"

You Liang gritted his teeth and said, "So what, anyway. He will be fine."

Yu Qin said impatiently: "Stop talking about irrelevant things, it's not important."

You Liang seemed to be aroused by the harsh words in his words. , it took a long time to endure it: "How can he like someone like you!"

Yu Qin looked at him coldly: "This is not something you should care about."

The protagonist of the topic at this moment, Yan Yunhe, had no idea that he had become The trigger for the tit-for-tat confrontation between Yu Qin and You Liang.

He walked into the snack shop and successfully logged into the Imperial City Department with the token.

Fang Zhizhou was sorting out the files and had already anticipated where the banquet would come from. Yan Yunhe asked: "I sent you a message the day before yesterday, why didn't you reply to me?"

"Your Majesty gave me something to do, but he was too busy to reply to you." Fang Zhizhou said.

Yan Yunhe sat down and looked at Fang Zhizhou for a while: "Are you hiding something from me? You don't feel right today."

Fang Zhizhou sighed: "I've been really busy recently, because King Wu Regarding the matter, the Imperial City Secretary had to be busy controlling public opinion. Moreover, after the winter solstice, many spies were discovered in the capital, and I still had to complete the tasks assigned by His Majesty. I didn't even have time to rest, so how could I give up like before? You're here when you're called."

Yan Yunhe said angrily, "Okay, Tijuan, just keep busy. I'll just go read the files myself."

He could vaguely feel that Fang Zhizhou seemed to be worried, but since the other party didn't want to. He said it was hard for him to ask further questions.

After the banquet ended, Fang Zhizhou slowly stopped what he was doing.

He was silent for a long time in the flickering candlelight, until he opened the drawer under the desk and took out two torn pages.

It is clearly recorded on it that on January 14, the ninth year of Chengjing's reign, Youliang went to Yongfangzhai to buy two boxes of snacks, but disappeared from Yongfangzhai.

Another piece of paper records that at three o'clock in the morning on the same day, Uncle Wu of the Yu Mansion took two boxes of Yongfangzhai snacks to the Salesian Hospital and distributed them to everyone.

They were just two mediocre records, and even the recorders thought they were nothing more than trivial matters.

However, the Imperial City Secretary has extracted useful information many times through these numerous trivial matters.

Fang Zhizhou folded the two pieces of paper together and calmly moved to the candlelight, watching as the paper was licked by the flames, rolled up in darkness, and finally disappeared.

He slowly opened the fan in his hand, and there was a splash-ink painting on it, which he painted casually after drinking, and he used it for many years.

The picture depicts deep bamboo leaves. There are two little people sitting opposite each other in the pavilion, drinking and talking.

At the bottom of the folding fan, someone stamped a personal seal haphazardly on it.

The owner of that chapter is named You, named Liang, and given the courtesy name Zijun.

It's Fang Zhizhou's biggest selfishness that he never talks to others easily...
