Jiang Liwei seemed to be diverting hatred. Someone was just saying that Chen Xi was arrogant, but now he feels that Jiang Liwei is even more arrogant.

He was very respectful in his rituals and respectfully called Lun Wenxu "Mr.", but now he turned around and ridiculed him. Jiang Liwei seemed to be saying that Lun Wenxu was a petty person.

Someone immediately sneered and mocked: "So what if you pass the juren? Can you be ranked above Mr. Lun when you go to the exam? Don't you think about the ink in your stomach. Is it a bottle that is less than half a bottle, or is it just a bottle bottom at all!?"

Chen Xi knew that this time he offended the scholars from Tingzhou Prefecture again.

However, this is not the first time. I have been used to offending several times in a row. He came out to take the imperial examination at such an age, and was originally a target for others. But Chen Xi did not expect that Jiang Li, who had just met, would stand by him and set up two targets at the same time, and he would get less arrows on his body.

According to the plan, before dark, the scholars would go back to the teahouse to discuss the experiences they learned during the lectures of Zilun Wenxu, but because Chen Xi and Jiang Liwei were rude, everyone dispersed one after another, which made Su Tong a difficult person to do. In the end, the only ones who followed Su Tong back to the teahouse were Chen Xi and Jiang Liwei, as well as Sima Lu, a student with a good relationship with Su Tong.

This Sima Road is fat, big head, big ears, big belly, and looks like a person with a wide heart and fat body.

"Brother Su, I've said more than you just now, it's hard for you to do." After returning to the teahouse, Chen Xi apologized with an apology.

Su Tong smiled generously: "It's not your fault for Brother Shen. We are a scholar who is going to do everything to get a good exam. And Brother Shen said it well. Mr. Lun has not yet won the Jinshi... But it should be a natural thing. Looking at his knowledge today, this class should be almost the same. If we have the opportunity to take the exam with him, we should ask him for more experience..."

Jiang Liwei shook his head disapprovingly, as if he disagreed with the fact that he was a Jinshi in Lunwen: "I am really capable. Why did I not get the first place for two consecutive terms? If I try the same game, I would say that he must be above you and me?"

This is like a joke, but in fact it is Jiang Liwei who expressed his ambitions.

Jiang Liwei has accumulated two provincial examinations, and this time he is bound to win. Therefore, Jiang Liwei's ambition should be in the subsequent examination. Chen Xi thought to himself: "If I were to take the exam with Lun Wenxu in the same venue, it would be impossible for anyone to win or lose... Hehe, who told me to know the exam questions long ago?"

Although Chen Xi had countless classic eight-legged essays in his belly, the questions in the provincial examinations in the Ming Dynasty were a little blurred and it was hard to say that he would encounter familiar questions. However, Chen Xi, who had done special research, knew it clearly, which was his rare advantage.

But if Chen Xi wants to grasp his advantages, he must first pass the provincial examination... Even if he is good at asking about his own knowledge, he cannot ensure that his articles can be appreciated by the curtain officer.

After eating a few cups of tea, Su Tong said: "It's not too early today, so I should have said goodbye, but it's rare that Brother Gu Yu came from afar. Today I will be from Zaixia to invite the three of you to Chunyuan Pavilion to talk about it?"

Chunyuan Pavilion is the most famous private youth building in Tingzhou City. Although the pomp and appearance inside are similar to those of Tingzhou Prefecture Jiaofangsi, the girl's airs are not comparable to those of Jiaofangsi. As long as Su Tong can afford the money, the girl will ask for it.

Jiang Liwei smiled and declined: "I heard that there are two talented women in the Tingzhou Prefecture official office. I have a rare visit this time, so I want to see it."

Hearing this, he didn't want to go to the private Qinlou Chu Pavilion, because even if he was a guest of the temple, he would not feel any accomplishment. Jiang Liwei wanted to conquer the "two talented women in the Tingzhou Prefecture Official Office" with his personal charm, namely the two girls Xier and Yunliu, who were rumored outside.

Su Tong shook his head and sighed: "In the past few years, I have spent a lot of money in the official office. In the end, I still got nothing. On the contrary, Brother Shen... can enter and exit the girl's boudoir at will. Do you think it's annoying?"

Speaking of the matter of Fengyue, not only Jiang Liwei and Su Tong were in high spirits, but even Sima Lu, who was not very fond of talking, also mixed in a few sentences. It was roughly the story of Chen Xi visiting Jiaofangsi before and having some connection with the girls inside.

Sima Road had traveled to Jiaofangsi with Chen Xi and Su Tong, so he learned about it.

Jiang Liwei smiled and said, "Then you have to see it carefully. You should not only see the two beautiful women, but also see Mr. Chen's painting skills."

...

...

Before the lights were first launched, Jiaofangsi had already started business.

In the absence of a curfew, the Ming Dynasty's night ban system is in name only and is even more binding for scholars who are entering school. This can be seen from the late night viewing of the fireworks in "Jin Ping Mei". The banquets in this Jiaofang usually last until midnight. Men who were invited by women were lucky enough to visit the boudoir and go to Wushan together. They did not leave satisfied until the next morning.

Su Tong invited only three people this time, and the podium was a little smaller. Jiang Liwei was the guest of honor, and Chen Xi and Sima Lu were the guests.

After the servant made arrangements in advance, the three of them arrived at the Jiaofangsi and Yu Niang went out to greet him. Although she hadn't seen each other for a year, Chen Xi felt that this woman was still not as handsome as she looked younger.

"Yu Niang, Xier and Miss Yunliu..." Su Tong was most concerned about whether Xier and Yunliu could come out to drink, which involved face-saving issues.

Yu Niang smiled and said, "Xi'er has been feeling a little ill in recent days and can't come out to accompany her. However, Yun Liu can accompany her to drink a glass of water and wine with a few young masters."

Su Tongben was a little disappointed when he heard that Xier could not come out, but then he heard that Yun Liu could come out to drink with him and immediately said happily: "Then let me trouble Yu Niang's arrangement."

When he went upstairs, Chen Xi looked at Xier's room, but saw that the door of Xier's boudoir was closed, and some lights were emitted from inside. There was a trance of someone, but Chen Xi, who had clear eyes and careful eyes, felt that this person didn't look like Xier. Chen Xi felt a vague feeling of uneasiness in his heart, but he couldn't say what was going on.

"What a coincidence. I was unwell nine times after ten times. Isn't this a sincere pause for me?"

Before he could enter the banquet living room, he saw a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes in the corridor opposite the patio and was furious with a clerk wearing a green turban. He seemed to be angry that he could not see Xier.

Su Tong waved his hand: "It's not our business."

After saying that, Jiang Liwei, Chen Xi and Sima Lu were invited to the elegant hall.

As soon as she sat down, she served the fragrant tea and refreshments. Two girls who poured wine came over. They were pretty good. In Shen Xi's opinion, at least the level of the class beauties in later generations, it should be that Yu Niang dared not offend Su Tong, a big customer. Even if the business in the Jiaofang Department is busy, she will keep some girls out to accompany her at any time.

Jiang Liwei suddenly said in Su Tong's ear. Su Tong nodded and hugged a girl who toasted him. The woman dared not resist and was stiff and looked extremely restrained. Su Tong stuffed a liang of silver flask into the woman's arms: "What disease did Miss Xier have these days?"

The woman replied in a soft voice: "I don't know much."

Su Tong smiled and explained to Jiang Liwei: "Xi'er's little slut is the most attractive person, but she is a gentleman. Sometimes she really wants to push her down and do something wrong, but unfortunately she never can."

Jiang Liwei smiled and said, "With Brother Su's character and family background, there are still women who cannot get?"

Su Tong sighed: "This place is not Chunyuan Pavilion after all."

In one sentence, the difference between Jiaofangsi and private youth buildings is not useful here. These women are nominally owned by the government. They come out to entertain people with their own feelings. Whether they sell themselves depends on the girl's own wishes and choices.

Soon, Yu Niang brought Yun Liu into the hall and said apologetically: "Let the four young men wait for a long time."

Yunliu was specially arranged to sit next to Jiang Liwei. Yunliu had a little tired look on her face, and she seemed to have not had a good rest. However, her jade hand raised the wine pot and wanted to pour wine for Jiang Liwei: "The little girl toast a few young men."

The wine pot had not been lifted yet. Jiang Liwei's hand fell on Yun Liu's white wrist. Yun Liu was panicked, and the wine pot fell on the bamboo mat, splashing Jiang Li's body.

“Huh?”

Jiang Liwei showed a slightly surprised look on her face, and looked at Yunliu with a questioning eye. Yunliu was feeling fearful and trepidated at this time, and quickly took out the handkerchief in her arms to help Jiang Liwei wipe the wine on her body.

Yun Liu's eyebrows were full of apology: "Sir, please forgive me..."

Jiang Liwei's face flashed with a sharp look and she said with a smile: "It's okay, but I accidentally touched the girl's body. I should apologize."

Speaking of "jade body", two tiny reds flew on Yunliu's face. It was a little more charming than when Shen Xi saw him before.

Shen Xi thought to himself: "No, the 'selling point' that Yu Niang set for Yun Liu is generous and decent, not charming and affectionate. Do you think that the previous set was too noble and could not be sold at a high price. Have you changed your marketing strategy?"

But when Yun Liu filled Jiang Liwei with wine and came over toast and tea to the other three, his attitude regained his previous arrogance. Shen Xi was even more suspicious in his heart that there must be a problem. Only when Yun Liu and Jiang Liwei knew each other, they could explain it clearly, but they looked like they were different, not like an acquaintance.

Yun Liu sat aside after pouring the wine, looking quiet, just like Bixuan when she came in to toast everyone.

Jiang Liwei talked to Su Tong for a few words, looking at Yun Liu intentionally or unintentionally, as if she wanted to dig something from the beauty in front of her, but she could not do it.

Su Tong didn't think so much, and he had great enthusiasm for Jiang Liwei: "... Although Tingzhou Prefecture is located in western Fujian, the Tingjiang River flows through the territory, with winding and beautiful mountains and rivers. It is also a place where waterways and 6 Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi are connected. It is a great cultural heritage of Hakka. Brother Gu Yu is rare to come here, so you might as well stay for a few more days before leaving."

Jiang Liwei remained calm: "I came here this time mainly to visit relatives and friends, and there is still some private matters, so I will leave in two days."

"It's a pity that I can't take Brother Gu Yu around."

The meal was harmonious. Even though Jiang Liwei showed an arrogant attitude in front of Lun Wenxu, he was easy to speak and sincere. This is what Shen Xi admired the most.

But Chen Xi always felt that there was a kind of "nobleness" hidden in him, which Chen Xi could not understand.

At a short time of the banquet, Yu Niang came in and delivered wine and food to the room with her own hands.

Su Tong quickly stood up to greet him: "How can I bother Yu Niang?"

Yu Niang swept Jiang Li's eyes with a charming look and said with a smile: "It's rare to have a distinguished guest today, and we are honored."

Su Tong laughed silently: "Look at what Yu Niang said, is Mr. Jiang coming from afar a distinguished guest, and I am not a distinguished guest when I come here on weekdays?"

Yu Niang shook her head: "You can't say that. Nanjing Dali Temple Temple Minister personally visited me. How dare I neglect my family?"

Su Tong changed his face to look surprised and turned around to look at Jiang Liwei. But when he saw Jiang Li's right smile on his face, he seemed to have known that Yu Niang would say such a thing.

Jiang Li stretched out his hand and made a call: "I'm sorry, Yu Niang."

"You are welcome to be polite, Lord Jiang."

Yu Niang smiled, arranged the wine and food, and left respectfully.

Su Tong was shocked: "Brother Gu Yu, what happened? Why am I confused before drinking a few drinks?"
