When I saw this couplet, I couldn't help but sigh.

Although what literati and poets seek is nothing more than what they do, for some reason, writing in this place, in such a quiet and deep night makes people feel a calm and arrogant.

My eyes slowly looked into the door, inside the brightly lit room, and a figure sat upright in front of me.

Qinghan said, "Let's go."

He was more comfortable than me. He took me slowly over and walked to the gate. When he reached the gate, he smelled a very clear fragrance of wine and food. Although he felt that the couplet hanging on the door was a little unharmonious, he was hungry and could still care about pens, inks, paper and inkstones there, and my mind was suddenly scattered by the fragrance.

A very low and thick voice came from inside—

"Miss, Junior Brother Liu, you are here."

This sound is not good or bad, it is very ordinary sound quality, but strangely, even though he sat inside, he could feel that his voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard in our ears, and there was a kind of power that made people feel energetic. My mind was originally on the food, but at this time I was caught back.

There are some who felt like they were absent in class and were caught by the teacher.

Nan Zhenyi is worthy of being the chief of Xishan Academy. He often teaches students, and his voice has become a kind of majesty of a teacher.

Qinghan walked in and saluted the person sitting directly above: "Chief of the Mountain."

I also looked up and saw a middle-aged man sitting in front of me.

This man is about forties, with a square face, clear eyebrows and a beard under his jaw, which is very neatly trimmed, and has the feeling of a beautiful beard in ancient books. Although he is not a handsome boy, his outfit is very simple, and his clothes are washed white, I feel that even if there is a beautiful man with gorgeous clothes sitting here, I think the first person I see must be him.

Some people have a more dignified attitude than their natural appearance and are overwhelmed with gorgeous outfits. That is the real romantic attitude.

I looked at him and couldn't take my eyes open for a moment.

Qinghan turned his head and looked at me. I was slightly shocked, and then I woke up like a dream: "Uh--"

He smiled slightly, stood up and said, "I haven't seen you for several years, and the eldest lady is probably about to forget it. I am Nan Zhenyi, pay homage to the eldest lady."

After saying that, he stood up and bowed to me.

As I raised my hand, a slight blew out of my deep clothes and wide sleeves, turning into a breeze and swelling. I immediately smelled a faint rosy smell.

I leaned over and gave him a bow.

He said: "The eldest lady came to the academy before, but she was unable to meet her because she was discussing the truth. I apologized here, and I hope the eldest lady will forgive her."

I also bowed and said, "The mountain is so serious."

"Today, we will set up a light wine and feast. In addition to apologizing, we will also welcome the two. Miss and junior brother, please take your seat first."

After saying that, he stretched his arms, and then we both saw that there were already seats on both sides of his left and right hands in this open pavilion. The habits here are still different from those in the Central Plains. Most banquets are gathered together to eat together in the Central Plains, but in Xichuan, there are still separate meals, and each person sits in his own seat and eats his own portion.

Qinghan and I were naturally placed on both sides of his left and right hands.

So we walked over and sat down separately.

But after sitting down, I saw a seat at my bottom, with wine pots and wine glasses and dining utensils on it.

In addition to the two of us, there were other guests.

I didn't ask much, and after sitting down, I asked with a smile: "I heard from Qinghan that the mountain manager is very particular about food and clothing. I wonder what good wine and food are there tonight?"

Nan Zhenyi smiled and said, "There are no good wine and food. I just thought that the eldest lady had left her hometown for too long and the academy for too long, so she prepared some old things to relieve the eldest lady's homesickness."

"Oh? Then I'm looking forward to it."

Nan Zhenyi said again: "However, the guests have not arrived yet, and the nephew is about to arrive. Please wait."

This person is indeed very direct in his words and actions. He doesn't even have to guess and immediately tells us the identity of the remaining guest, who is his nephew.

His nephew?

Qinghan and I couldn't help but look at each other. Before we could communicate in our eyes, we heard footsteps coming from outside the gate.

A familiar figure walked in.

That young man.

In fact, if I gave me some more time, even if I had a breath, I could guess it was him, but he came too fast and my thoughts were too confusing, so when this young man walked in, I still couldn't control my expression well, and opened my eyes wide and showed a look of shock.

When the young man saw us, he was slightly shocked, but immediately calmed down. He respectfully leaned over to Nan Zhenyi above and bowed: "Uncle."

Nan Zhenyi said, "Zi Tai, you are late."

"My uncle, please forgive me." The young man named Zitai said respectfully: "I just did something and I'm a few steps late."

"Don't do this next time."

"yes."

"You sit down."

I don't know if they are too familiar with each other or too unfamiliar with each other, and they speak and do things very rigidly. Moreover, the young man felt that his eyes were on the top of his head since he first met him. He felt that everyone was disliked. However, when he looked at Nan Zhenyi, he was as respectful and obedient as a kitten.

No wonder, it is an elder.

I watched him walk to me and sit down, then turned over, and Nan Zhenyi said to us: "This is her nephew, Nan Zitai. I think I know them all."

I smiled and said, "So it's the mountain captain's nephew."

As he said that, he looked back at Nan Zitai. He had never been very good to me and Qinghan. Now it seems that he is also our junior. When I look at him, he is somewhat provocative, as if he is saying "Let me see it again." This young man is very conscious of the times and sits there with a stern face and doesn't speak.

Nan Zhenyi said again: "I know that Zitai and the two have known each other for a long time and have dated them. You can talk about the things in between tonight. Let's go to the bar first."

As soon as he finished speaking, several people came in outside the gate.

Judging from the outfit, it should be the chef servant he invited from the foot of the mountain. His sleeves were tied tightly and he gave us wine in a quick and easy manner. The smell of wine we just smelled was this smell, which was the wine produced in the cellar. Although it was not a famous product, it has been in Shu for some years, especially the elderly, who are very obsessed with this smell.

Nan Zhenyi raised his wine glass and said to us: "Please."

Everyone also raised their wine glasses and drank a glass first.

The taste of this wine is very light, probably because it was stored for too long. Moreover, the wine is warm and it will be sweet after drinking it. It is very refreshing. Because of this, people who drink this wine for the first time often drink it in a moderation because of this taste, and end up getting drunk as if it is muddy, because although the taste is light, the alcohol is quite strong.

After drinking the first drink, I said to Nan Zhenyi: "Actually, this time, I am very grateful to the mountain leader."

"Oh? What?"

"Stand up and turn the tide."

"Stand up and enter the game..."

He recited these four words silently, and a long and profound meaning appeared in his eyes. After a while, he smiled faintly: "These four words are so serious. I just sat in the academy and held a discussion, so that the students could argue. It was not considered standing up, let alone entering the game."

I also smiled and said, "It is not necessary to play swords to stand up, nor to break into the battlefield to be considered as entering the game. Although the Shanzhu's argument this time was a verbal battle, it was a competition for the general trend of the world and the correctness of the people's hearts. Such a power is better than a thousand troops."

He was silent for a moment, without saying a word, but just raised his glass: "Please."

So, everyone had a second drink.

I was a little anxious to drink the wine. After drinking the second cup, I felt a burst of heat rising from the base of my neck to my face. I didn’t have to look at it and knew that my face was blushing. Although those words just now were compliments, they were indeed the truth. I chose the most common opening words and hoped that the following words would be more smooth, but in the end, it was still not easy to speak if I really wanted to see people’s privacy.

Qinghan on the opposite side seemed to have been thinking for a long time. I winked at him and glanced at Nan Zitai next to me with the corner of my eyes.

In fact, what we need to ask now is nothing more than this.

Since it was difficult to speak to Nan Zhenyi, I could only find the entry point from Nan Zitai. However, before we could speak, Nan Zhenyi spoke first: "I know that the eldest lady and Junior Brother Liu are here tonight, so I must also want to know some things about me and Nephew Sao, right?"

It seems that in front of this person, it is best not to show any cleverness.

Qinghan nodded and said, "Yes, before, we wanted to know the relationship between you two, and now, we want to know the relationship between the chief of the mountain and the Longxi army."

The Nan Zitai immediately said, "Why do you say that my uncle has a relationship with the Longxi Army?"

I turned my head to look at him and said calmly: "When I saw you in the casino in Fengxiang City before, you appeared there to get the set of chain mail. We thought you were on order, but you said that that matter had nothing to do with Master Ye. Since it was not a public business, it was of course a private matter. And the two—" I said, looking back at Nan Zhenyi: "That is, you are uncle and nephew, and that private matter should be the same."

“…”

The young man suddenly had nothing to say, just frowned and closed his mouth.

Nan Zhenyi said calmly: "Zi Tai, don't be rude. The eldest lady said that, we are descendants of the Longxi Army."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Nan Zitai immediately closed his mouth obediently.

Qinghan and I couldn't help but look at each other. In fact, we had guessed something in our hearts, but we didn't expect the facts to come so quickly.
