Xie Zijun said again, "you went to the Xu family yesterday, but you didn't even enter the door of the Xu family."
Wei Chen asked, "how do you know?"
"Because when you came to Xu's house, I was a guest of Xu's house," Xie Zijun said in a somewhat erratic tone. "Xu Shoufu personally invited me to his house. Xu Shoufu said a lot to me. At that time, someone came to report that you asked to see outside the gate, and Xu Shoufu said," No. "
Wei Chen clenched his fist. He was fooled.
Xie Zijun continued: "next, you went to the homes of several officials. To tell you the truth, those officials had contact with Xu Shoufu. As soon as you went to their house, they told Xu Shoufu about it. They are a huge interest group, but you are only alone. You can't fight them. "
Wei Chen gritted his teeth and said, "I won't admit defeat. Even if all of you collude, I won't give up! I won't let you do whatever you want! "
Xie Zijun sighed, "aren't you afraid of death?"
"Not afraid!"
Wei Chen answered very decisively. When he decided to find out the truth, he was ready to break to pieces.
Xie Zijun asked, "is your family afraid of death?"
Wei Chen's body stiffened and his steps stopped.
He looked at Xie Zijun with anger: "what do you want to do?"
The palace man in front stopped and looked back at them. He didn't understand why they suddenly stopped?
Xie Zijun smiled at the palace man: "we want to talk alone. Please wait a minute."
The palace man gave Xie Zijun face, nodded slightly, and then walked away so as not to hinder them from talking.
Xie Zijun looked at Wei Chen again. He was always polite on his face. At this time, he looked particularly cold.
"You should remember that you don't live alone in this world. You have family besides yourself. For example, your sister is just a rural village woman with no power. If Xu Shoufu wants to crush her, it's like crushing an ant."
Wei Chen is in a hurry.
He grabbed Xie Zijun's skirt like an angry little beast and roared.
"If you dare to touch a hair of my sister, I'll fight with you!"
Xie Zijun stood where he was and said coldly, "as long as you are obedient and don't always want to trace it to the end, your sister and your family will be safe."
Wei Chen stared at him with red eyes. His eyes were very fierce: "are you threatening me?"
"It's not a threat. It's just a kind reminder. After all, I had an engagement with your sister. I don't want her to die at a young age."
Xie Zijun noticed that someone was coming this way not far away. He waved Wei Chen's hand, took two steps back, and said in a voice only they heard.
"Don't hurt your relatives for a moment. Fame is important, but relatives are more important, don't you think?"
Wei Chen was very angry at this time.
He wanted to punch Xie Zijun in the face and tell Xie Zijun loudly that he was not afraid of anything! No matter what sinister means you use, he won't give in!
But in fact, he can only stand where he is and can't do anything.
Because he knew that with the power of Xu Yizhi and Xie family, it was enough to destroy everything he cared about.
He is not afraid of death or being laughed at, but he is afraid that his sister will be hurt.
When he needed help most, my sister stood firmly behind him and held up a sky for him.
Now, how could he ignore his sister's safety because he was unwilling?!
He wants to protect his sister.
Even in a compromise way.
Xie Zijun tidied up his skirt and said to the palace man not far away, "OK, let's go."
At the qionglin banquet, everyone had a smile on their faces. They flattered and praised each other, and kept pushing cups for lamps.
Wei Chen said his Majesty's good morning when he first met the emperor, but he didn't say anything again.
He sat alone in the corner, drinking silently and not communicating with anyone.
After three rounds of wine, the emperor left.
As soon as the emperor left, the ministers were more open, and the atmosphere at the banquet became more warm.
Almost all the scholars gathered around Xie Zijun, toasted him and accosted him.
Because there were too many people, Xie Zijun was too busy, and some people were left out in the cold.
In order to attract Xie Zijun's attention, those people pointed the spear at Wei Chen, who was sitting in the corner drinking quietly.
"Oh, this is not our top spot. Why are you sitting here drinking alone? Don't you boast of your talent? Can you even say that you wrote the article by yourself? Come on, you'll give us an article now to see how amazing your talent is? "
As soon as these words came out, they really attracted Xie Zijun's attention.
Xie Zijun frowned and said, "we are Jinshi of the same subject, and we will all be officials of the same Dynasty in the future. Why don't we hold on to a little thing?"
Seeing that the number one scholar Lang actually spoke for Wei Chen, the people who wanted to pick things were boring. They all closed their mouths bitterly and dared not talk about Wei Chen again.
Wei Chen just glanced at Xie Zijun and Xu Yizhi, then took back his sight and continued to drink with his head down. He had no intention of thanking him for his rescue.
Seeing him like this, those who originally had opinions on him looked down on him more and more. They just felt that he was not only narrow-minded, but also arrogant and unworthy of making friends!
It's just an episode. It'll be over soon.
The qionglin banquet went on as usual.
The party lasted an hour and a half.
At the end of the party, Wei Chen was undoubtedly drunk.
With the help of the palace people, he left the palace unsteadily. Liang Yuxing had already been waiting at the gate of the palace.
When he saw Wei Chen coming out, he hurried to meet him and helped him to the donkey cart.
"Why drink so much?"
The quality of Wei Chen's wine is very good. Even if he is drunk, he doesn't make any noise. He just sits quietly like a delicate and beautiful doll.
If it weren't for his drunkenness, outsiders wouldn't know he was drunk.
Because of this, he didn't make any jokes at the qionglin banquet because he was drunk. It was lucky in his misfortune.
Back to Liang's courtyard.
Wei Chenming was lying in bed, his mind was drowsy, but his consciousness was very clear.
He can't sleep.
He is homesick again, more and more.
If only he could go home now, so that he could see Mr. and Mrs. Wei Ci, his sister and brother-in-law.
As long as he stays with his relatives, even if he is just an ordinary person, he feels very happy.
