Chapter 47 The Princess's Scholar (4) (1/2)
After the examination, Zhao He felt like he was almost shorn of skin. Fortunately, he still had some martial arts skills, so he didn't fall on the person who came to pick him up like other people did. Instead, he sat in the sedan chair safely.
As soon as he sat in the sedan chair, he fell into a deep sleep due to his fatigue. When he woke up, he found himself lying on the bed without any surprise.
Zhao He yawned and got up. He smelled the stench on his body because he hadn't taken a bath for a long time. He frowned in disgust, got out of bed with difficulty, moved his hands and feet, and was about to take a bath in a daze, but suddenly he stopped and clapped his hands.
Oh!
How could he fall asleep directly? He should have asked Brother Lin for news before going to sleep!
Even with his strong body, he almost couldn't make it. Brother Lin was so weak, what if he couldn't make it...
Zhao He didn't care about taking a bath, and hurried to the door outside. As a result, when he opened the door, he happened to meet the book boy who came in with tea.
"Master! You're awake!"
The servant shouted in surprise when he saw him, and put the tea on the table, saying, "Master, you scared us. We slept all day and just finished the exam. Doctors in the capital were all snatched up. I didn't expect that Master Lin, who has always been in poor health, was safe and sound, but you, Master, fell down."
Zhao He was about to ask Lin Shiheng, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"Is Brother Lin really okay? I was thinking when I came out. The capital is too cold. If it weren't for the hot pot base and those copper beads, I would probably have lost half my life."
"It's okay, Master Lin is fine. By the way, Master, let me tell you."
The servant has always been with Zhao He, so he naturally knows how bad his relationship with Hu Chuan and the others is. Now that he sees him wake up, his face immediately gloats and mutters about Hu Chuan vomiting blood at the entrance of the examination room.
"This matter has spread everywhere. Our Master Lin was also present at the time. It seemed that he had an argument with Master Hu, so many people misunderstood that Master Hu's vomiting blood was due to their quarrel. However, Master Hu said that it had nothing to do with Master Lin. It was his own physical weakness. He had been in the examination room for so many days and was weak, so he vomited blood."
As the book boy spoke, he smiled and looked overjoyed. Zhao He, who was shocked by this matter, rolled his eyes and weakly raised his hand to knock on the book boy's head.
"You are so happy that Hu Chuan got into trouble? I am almost laughing out loud."
"How can I not be happy? The young master was excluded in the academy before because of them. The young master stayed in the academy for so long because of them. You are a person who likes to make friends, but you don't have any friends..."
"Go away."
Zhao He knocked on his head again, "When making friends, it is better to be good than to be numerous. Didn't you see that Brother Lin and I are good friends? When making friends, you should find people like Qinzhi who are pure-minded, kind-hearted, insightful, and have similar interests. Most of those people in the academy are pedantic scholars. I don't like them!"
The little book boy curled his lips and said nothing.
The door of the room was pushed open, and the scholar in a white cloak walked in with a smile. He happened to hear this sentence and added a sentence.
"When I was drinking and talking with Brother Zhao before, Brother Zhao didn't say that."
Zhao He immediately remembered the scene when he was drunk and vented all the anger he had suffered in the academy to Lin Shiheng in one breath.
What did he say at that time?
Did he tell about the incident in the middle of winter when someone teased him and poured cold water on his quilt?
"Hmm..."
Lin Shiheng yawned, watched the book boy leave, and said with a smile, "Now we are just waiting for the announcement of the results. We don't know if we passed the exam."
"Anyway, we have passed the exam, why think about it."
Zhao He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he didn't mention the incident just now. If he wasn't drunk, he would never tell others about this embarrassing incident of being bullied.
"Brother Lin, I heard that Hu Chuan had an argument with you before he vomited blood. How is it? Did others misunderstand you?"
The handsome scholar who took off his white cloak and put it on the chair seemed very confused. He turned his head and knelt slowly. He picked up the teapot and asked curiously while pouring tea, "Why do you misunderstand me?"
Zhao He's reaction was not strange. Anyway, Brother Lin has always been such a kind person. Even if others talked about it, he probably wouldn't get angry.
But remembering that Hu Chuan was not easy to get along with, he still asked, "Brother Lin, although I know it has nothing to do with you, what did Hu Chuan argue with you about before he vomited blood?"
If he tells it now, he can help think of a countermeasure if Hu Chuan and his three friends turn the tables on him in the future.
"It's nothing."
Lin Shiheng took a sip of tea, "It's just that the hot pot base is very fragrant, and I was sitting behind Brother Hu, so it affected him."
Zhao He was stunned. He knew how fragrant the hot pot base was. Although the taste was indeed good, if the taste was eight points, then this fragrance was twelve points. Normally, even if you are not hungry, you will want to eat it when you smell it. If you are hungry, you will want to eat it as soon as you smell it.
Could it be that Hu Chuan really wanted to eat it because of this smell?
This man is too stingy.
He actually vomited blood because of a bite of food, tut tut tut.
Although he felt that Hu Chuan was making a big deal out of nothing, Zhao He immediately said righteously, "Brother Lin, don't worry about rumors from outside. If someone really blames you for Hu Chuan's vomiting blood and misunderstands you, I will definitely defend you."
"Why do you want to refute?"
Zhao He sighed in his heart again that his brother Lin was indeed pure-minded, but this purity seemed a bit too much. The reputation of a scholar is the most important. Although Lin Shiheng and Hu Chuan didn't have much friendship, they were in the same examination room and could be considered classmates. If others insisted that he was the one who made people vomit blood, wouldn't he have a bad reputation?
But it doesn't matter. Although Brother Lin doesn't care about these false names, he must help.
Thinking of this, Zhao He immediately looked serious.
"Of course I have to refute it, otherwise, what will happen if others misunderstand you, Brother Lin!"
"Others are others, and it has nothing to do with me."
Lin Shiheng smiled gently, lowered his head slightly with an embarrassed look, and took a sip of tea, "Besides, there is no misunderstanding."
"Brother Lin, you don't have to blame yourself for this. It's Hu Chuan himself who is narrow-minded. I know you are a good person, but reputation is a lifelong thing."
The handsome scholar who took off his white coat and revealed the green clothes inside smiled, put down the cup in his hand, and said softly, "Brother Hu is right. I deliberately used food to make him sleepless."
Zhao He almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. He stared blankly at the person in front of him.
The smile was gentle, the eyes were clear and warm, and the temperament was like a gentleman in ancient countries, as elegant as orchid.
How could such a person do such a thing, such a thing...
"You, you did it on purpose?"
Lin Shiheng smiled shyly, "It's not really intentional."
"Before the formal exam, I wanted to give Brother Hu the hot pot base, but Brother Hu refused to accept it, so you can't blame me."
Huh!
Zhao He breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that a gentleman like Brother Lin would never do such a thing.
He tried to calm down his excitement and waved his hand, "Brother Lin, don't breathe as hard as you did just now when you talk. How can you say you did it on purpose? It's obvious that Hu Chuan didn't appreciate it and blamed you. You don't know what kind of person he is. How could you know that he would refuse it before you gave it to him?"
"I know."
"Brother Hu has always been an enemy of Brother Zhao, so he naturally won't believe me, Brother Zhao's friend. I said I would give him the base before the exam, but I just wanted him to regret it after smelling it. It would be better if he accepted it."
Lin Shiheng saw Zhao He's eyes Guang looked at him in a daze, stiffly and in disbelief, revealing some doubts in his eyes, "Why does Brother Zhao look at me like this? If it were Brother Zhao, would he not do the same?"
"That's not the case."
Zhao He smiled awkwardly, "Hu Chuan and I have an old grudge. At first, I didn't want to bother with him, but I found out that he really wanted to kill me as soon as he got the chance, so of course I had to strike first."
It's just that he didn't expect that Lin Shiheng, who he always thought was kind and kind, actually plotted against Hu Chuan silently.
As Zhao He thought about it, a light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he clapped his hands and stood up.
"Brother Lin! Could it be that when you asked them to make the hot pot base, you were planning to plot against Hu Chuan?"
"If that's the case, Brother Lin, you are too awesome!!"
Faced with Zhao He's praise, the blue-clothed scholar smiled shyly, "Brother Zhao, you're too kind. I'm just average."
Zhao He was so excited that he sat down again and slapped the table, "How can this be average! If I had your brain, I wouldn't have been tortured by Hu Chuan and his men and almost lost half my life!"
"You don't know, the three of them are so good every day. When we are alone, they are very nice to me when there are people around, but they bully me when there are no people around. When there are people around again, in the eyes of others, they are very nice to me, but I am stinking and ignoring their kindness. People in the academy don't want to associate with me in the first place, and after this incident, they look down on me even more. "
Lin Shiheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "When the late emperor was alive, he had already begun to improve the status of merchants. We obviously have merchants' children studying here. Even if some people around us have grudges, at least they should keep peace on the surface. Why are there so many stubborn people in Brother Zhao's academy?"
Zhao He shrugged, "Brother Lin, you don't know that our Zhi County was occupied by the extinct Dong Dynasty in the previous dynasty. After the previous dynasty was destroyed, it was not until 35 years later that our ancestors fought back. Therefore, Zhi County was more deeply influenced by the previous dynasty than other places, and the status of merchants was not as high as other places. Otherwise, my family would not have been so focused on letting their children enter the Guanchang."
"I am the son of a merchant, and my status in the academy is awkward. Although the teachers will not look down on me, they will not be partial to me. If I hadn't known that I was the only one in my family who could continue to study, I would have wanted to go back long ago!"
Lin Shiheng listened thoughtfully, but Zhao He was excited after he finished speaking.
He didn't have any fear of Lin Shiheng, who had superb skills and silently launched a big move. After the previous trace of disbelief faded, only excitement and excitement remained.
Of course he was excited, Brother Lin was on his side. If he could teach him a trick, he wouldn't be suppressed every time he met those three people in the future.
"Brother Lin, since you are so powerful, can you teach me how to deal with Hu Chuan and the others? I am not saying that I want to plot against them secretly or make them lose their arms and legs, as long as they feel aggrieved."
"That's easy."
The blue-clothed scholar still looked easy to talk to, "Since Brother Hu and the others treated you like that, why not treat them the same way? Brother Hu was patient about vomiting blood in the examination room because if he went to the examination room because I brought delicious food and he refused to eat it, but after the exam he hated me for bringing delicious food that made him unable to concentrate on doing the questions, then if it got out, even if I would be affected, Brother Hu would inevitably be known as a narrow-minded and ungrateful person."
"If Brother Zhao wants to vent his anger, just do this..."
Lin Shiheng called Zhao He over and whispered a few words in his ear, which made Zhao He gradually realize something.
"Great!"
"Brother Lin, you are awesome! I'll go wash up and we'll go out in a while!"
He just stood up and suddenly remembered something, so he sat back down, "Brother Lin, we've been together for so long, and I know you've always been tolerant and generous. Your gentlemanly demeanor doesn't seem fake, so why did you resort to a trick to deal with Hu Chuan this time?"
After saying that, Zhao He was afraid that Lin Shiheng would misunderstand that he disliked him, so he quickly waved his hands to explain, "I'm not saying I don't agree, I just think that if you take action against someone like Hu Chuan, aren't you dirtying your hands?"
"From beginning to end, I didn't touch Brother Hu with my hands, and my hands were not touched by him. Where is it dirty?"
Lin Shiheng raised his eyes slightly and said seriously, "Since I met Brother Zhao, Brother Zhao has always taken care of me a lot. I have a disease in my body and can't help Brother Zhao much with other things. I heard a few book boys mention the old grudge between Brother Zhao and Brother Hu these days, so I took action."
Zhao He opened his eyes wide, "Actually, it was for me?"
The blue-clothed scholar nodded reservedly, "Didn't Brother Zhao say that we are close friends?"
"You take care of me a lot, so I naturally have to repay you. How can you take advantage without giving back?"
As he said, he coughed a few times with a pale face, and his slender and elegant eyebrows slightly frowned, pressing his chest.
"I've been in the examination hall for a few days, and I've hurt myself a little. It's a pity that it's hard to find a doctor now. Otherwise, I'd like to ask how to make up for it."
"It's okay! I'll have someone take your pulse. Although I can't tell the general pulse condition, I can still prescribe a tonic prescription or make a medicinal diet!"
Zhao He was so moved by what Lin Shiheng said before that he almost cried. Now that he saw that Brother Lin, who treated him so sincerely, was not feeling well again, he patted his chest and stood up without hesitation.
"Brother Lin, don't worry. My family has nothing else, but tonics are enough! It's not time to eat yet, wait a minute, I'll have someone make some delicious food."
Lin Shiheng frowned, stood up slowly, and looked embarrassed. "I'm so embarrassed. I had to stay at Brother Zhao's house because I had nowhere to go and was about to take the imperial examination. Now that the exam is over, I should leave. How can I continue to bother you with a shameless face?"
The blue-clothed scholar just stood up weakly and was pushed down by Zhao He.
"What do you mean by bothering me? You and I are close friends! My house is your house! Besides, Brother Lin also said that we should repay each other! Brother Lin helped me to vent my anger, so I should repay Brother Lin."
"Just sit down, I'll ask someone to prepare it."
Lin Shiheng coughed twice in a low voice with helplessness on his face, "Brother Zhao invited me so kindly, I can't refuse it anymore, but the food should not be too good, especially the Zhixian steamed fish, which took too much effort to make last time, so don't make it."
Zhao He, who originally didn't think about steaming fish, was reminded and immediately said, "By the way, I almost forgot that Brother Lin likes to eat steamed fish. I'll tell them to make it now. Okay, Brother Lin, you continue to rest, I'll go and tell them first, and we'll go out together after dinner."
Lin Shiheng smiled gently and nodded, picked up the teapot on the table, "Then I'll go make tea, and it happens that the tea is almost finished."
"Oh, no need, no need."
Zhao He quickly took the teapot in his hand, and looked up and down at his good-looking and temperamental friend who was a little weak and powerless. "Brother Lin, you are weak, how can you do this kind of work? I will go out and let them make tea."
After he said that, he walked out, thinking with some sighs as he walked out, Brother Lin was really polite.
He helped him so much, but he didn't want anything.
Oh, such a good friend should be cherished.
Seeing Zhao He leave, Lin Shiheng stood up and casually took a book from the bookshelf and read it.
When he sat back on the stone bench, he found that the stone bench had moved slightly.
His face was still pale, and his eyes were still looking at the book in his left hand, but his right hand slightly exerted force to lift the solid stone bench that had moved and moved it to its original position.
Although the hot pot base tasted very delicious, the Zhixian steamed fish tasted the best when it came to deliciousness.
If you want to say what is the most nourishing thing for your body, it is naturally what you like to eat.
After convincing himself, the blue-clothed scholar nodded in satisfaction and began to read at ease.
The meal at the Zhao Mansion was indeed as delicious as Zhao He ordered, and it was also a nourishing medicinal meal.
The two of them enjoyed the meal very much, and when they finished, they got up and went out together.
According to the little book boy who was the best at getting gossip, Hu Chuan finally invited a doctor to see him, but he only said that he was angry because there were many people at the time. When everyone heard it, they thought that Hu Chuan was angry because he didn't do well in the exam, so he vomited blood. Although it was embarrassing to tell others about it, it was not him who was embarrassed anyway, so the rumors were spread happily.
Vomiting blood because of anger sounds serious, but in fact, it only takes a prescription. According to the news that the book boy found out, Hu Chuan may feel that his face has been damaged. Recently, he has been talking with a group of scholars who are also waiting for the list in the top scholar building every day.
Based on Zhao He's understanding of this guy, he is definitely trying to gain the reputation of "gentle and polite" again.
In the past, Zhao He would hide when he saw Hu Chuan, but now it is different.
He has Brother Lin's support!
Even if he can't beat Hu Chuan, doesn't he still have Brother Lin, a smart man?
Zhao He, who felt that he had a lot of momentum, took Lin Shiheng to a very imposing restaurant.
"Brother Lin, look, this is the Zhuangyuan Building in the capital. It is close to the list of names posted here. Although the words can't be seen clearly, it is a good place to wait for the list to be posted. In addition, many scholars have come here to wait for the list to know that they have passed the exam, so this place is even more popular among scholars."
It's just to get a good start.
Lin Shiheng nodded in understanding, and stood below and looked up at the three words on it.
Zhuangyuan Building, it can have such a name, and it can also occupy such a large area in the capital as a restaurant. It is impossible without the official Zhao behind it.
He raised his eyebrows and followed Zhao He into the room.
In the building, some people dressed as scholars were gathering together on the first floor to discuss. Some who liked quietness chose private rooms, or those who didn't like to discuss but only liked to watch the excitement leaned on the railing on the second floor to look down. Looking around, it was indeed a pure and elegant atmosphere, which was very consistent with the aesthetics of scholars who pursued the four gentlemen.
At this moment, Hu Chuan was sitting at the table and talking with several scholars, looking at the people who were discussing together from time to time.
Now it was about to get dark, but there were quite a few people in the Zhuangyuan Building. After all, everyone had studied hard for many years to reach the position of a scholar. If they passed the examination, they would be officials in the future. How could they not relax after just finishing the examination?
The reason why Hu Chuan came out just after losing face was because many of the scholars sitting in this Zhuangyuan Building must have passed the examination. He knew that he had no chance after the examination, but this did not prevent him from making friends with a few friends who passed the examination. In the future, they would choose officials and communicate with each other, which would also lay a foundation for their future life in Guanchang.
Unlike when he just finished the exam and was in a bad mood with bloodshot eyes, Hu Chuan was extremely excited at this moment, and he was full of confidence when talking to other people he was going to meet.
When others saw him, they just thought that he felt that he had done well in the exam, so he was in such a good mood, and they were also envious.
Two young men in luxurious clothes were led in by the servants with their servants, and went up to the second floor, chose an empty railing, and looked down at the scene below.
"Is that the person chosen by the third brother?"
Shen Huyang frowned slightly, and looked at the Hu Chuan below with a little puzzlement, who had a plain face but an excited expression and could not see any good from head to toe.
"Is it really him? Why does he look like a scholar?"
Shen Hu'an, who was taller than her and standing beside her, smiled helplessly, "If he hadn't immediately excitedly gone to find the juren he knew to bring them into the mansion of the third brother as soon as he was contacted by someone sent by the third brother, I wouldn't have known his identity so quickly."
"The third brother's vision is really getting worse and worse. I thought he was a great figure and wasted an opportunity to leave the palace in vain."
"In fact, he is not bad. My subordinates have found out that his grades are okay, he is young, and he ranks well in Zhi County. Although his character is a bit bad, he can still be used. What's more, isn't he recruiting juren everywhere? He is also a good subordinate."
Shen Huyang looked at Hu Chuan, who had no gentlemanly manners at all, and retracted his gaze. "He can only be called a subordinate, not a scholar."
"Sister, you are here again. Then, as you said, what kind of person can be considered a scholar?"
Shen Huyang answered without hesitation, "Of course, it is like grandpa who has talents that others cannot match."
"Yes, the champion three years ago was quite talented, but unfortunately, he was an old champion who was over fifty years old and had become a grandfather."
Shen Hu'an looked even more helpless, "Father said that sister's blooming time has come. He knows that you love talented scholars the most. This time, he plans to choose a marriage from the talented scholars on the list."
"I know."
Shen Huyang looked indifferent, "So my third brother started looking for scholars who are willing to join him. If it weren't for grandpa leaving you 's loyal people, I didn't know that my marriage was also in the eyes of the third brother. "
Speaking of this, Shen Hu'an's face on the side completely disappeared, "I have implicated my sister, if it weren't for me..."
"If it weren't for you, I still couldn't decide my marriage."
"Whatever."
Shen Huyang looked at the scholars below who were talking or laughing together, "I have seen a lot of candidates in these days, and they are all the same. Since my father has decided to find a son-in-law for me this time, it doesn't matter who he chooses."
"It's just a matter of respecting each other. Anyway, as a princess, I can still live freely even if I don't have a good relationship with my son-in-law."
She was born a princess and didn't have the blessing of her biological mother. Although she had a brother, it could only make the two of them live more and more difficult in the palace.
Shen Huyang was not favored, and so was her brother. She was fine, as a woman, and at most she would be ridiculed and mocked by other princesses. But her brother was different. He was a prince, and was born to be a thorn in the eyes of some people. Losing the protection of his biological mother did not make some people show mercy, but became more unscrupulous.
They grew up well, but if they did not fight, looking at the temperament of the brothers, no matter who got the throne in the future, they would not have a good life. In this case, why not fight.
The man with a somewhat immature face on the side also looked gloomy, "I have implicated my sister."
Because he was a prince, others would not let his sister get a husband with a good family background.
Therefore, Shen Huyang had few candidates for the son-in-law this time. During this period, he almost used up all the connections left by his grandfather, but none of the candidates with good grades and appropriate age were in their eyes.
They were born princes and princesses. Even if they were bullied, the education they received would never allow them to look down on ordinary people.
Thinking that such an excellent sister could only marry someone casually because of him, he clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes flashed with determination.
He must get the throne and protect his sister for life!
Someone hurriedly came up from the upstairs and walked to the two of them, "Fifth Prince, someone has sent a letter."
Shen Huyang looked at the anxious face of the guard and said to his brother, "You go to the private room to see, I will watch here for a while."
"Okay, I will go in first, you guys, stay and protect the princess."
"Yes!"
Watching her brother leave, Shen Huyang's expression also dimmed.
She is a woman, and she has lived in the palace since she was a child. She has never thought about what kind of appearance and character the prince consort should have if she has a prince consort in the future, whether he is really talented, and whether he is willing to treat her well.
But she didn't expect that she would have to marry so hastily.
Now the imperial edict has not been issued, but during this period of time, my brother used the connections left by my grandfather to check all the candidates with good grades. There are also some good ones, but they usually get married early. The rest have no problem with knowledge, but other things are very mediocre.
Shen Huyang sighed, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
What else can she expect? She and her brother have no biological mother, and they are lucky to grow up safely. Too much extravagance will only add to the sadness.
She was about to turn around and leave, but two young men walked in from outside.
"Brother Hu!"
Hu Chuan was talking to someone, and suddenly there was a kind call from behind. The voice was familiar but very strange, with a hint of excitement and full of intimacy.
He turned around strangely, thinking that he didn't have any particularly good friends who hadn't met, and met Zhao He's smiling face.
"Brother Hu, long time no see, long time no see!!"
Zhao He walked up to him and saluted him regardless of Hu Chuan's look as if he had seen a ghost.
Hu Chuan was stiff for a while before he slowly returned the greeting, even his voice was obscure, "Brother Zhao."
What is this Zhao He up to? He was clearly tricked by him before and ran away when he saw him, but now he is so attentive to him.
Could it be that he is going to deal with him like that sinister and cunning villain Lin Shiheng and Lin Qinzhi?
Just as he thought of this, the blue-clothed scholar following Zhao He slowly stepped forward and saluted slowly with a gentle smile, "Brother Hu, long time no see."
Hu Chuan, who had just returned the greeting and stood up, "..."
What do you mean long time no see? They clearly met yesterday!
These two people are really lying with their eyes open.
Even if he was reluctant to return the gift in his heart, Hu Chuan still gritted his teeth and leaned forward slightly to return the gift in front of everyone, with great vigilance towards the two people.
"Brother Zhao and Brother Lin don't like to attend such gatherings? Why are you here today? I wonder which brother invited you?"
Hu Chuan had never heard that anyone had invited them.
Uninvited, the news would get out...
"Brother Lin! Brother Zhao!"
One of the organizers of the party happened to come over and was immediately surprised when he saw the two of them. He hurried forward to salute, "I thought Brother Lin was weak before, and he must have rested well after the exam. Brother Zhao had to take care of Brother Lin, so I didn't send you two invitations. I didn't expect to meet you here. If I had known this, I would have sent you invitations. It's my fault."
"What's wrong? It's my brother who is considerate."
Lin Shiheng lowered his head slightly, pale He coughed twice, raised his eyes and looked like a sky full of stars, and smiled gently, "I am indeed not feeling well. I was just worried about Brother Hu vomiting blood yesterday, so I asked Brother Zhao to bring me to visit him."
"So that's the case. I didn't expect that Brother Hu and Brother Lin have such a good relationship. I won't bother you three."
The organizer left, and Zhao He smiled affectionately at Hu Chuan, who had a gloomy face but could only hold on to a "hello, I'm fine, everyone is fine" face because he was in public.
"That brother just said it wrong. It's me who has the best relationship with Brother Hu. We are from the same county, classmates and took the imperial examinations in the same year. If we talk about fate, it's naturally you and I who are the best."
As he said that, he raised his eyebrows at Hu Chuan, who had a stiff expression on his face, "Brother Hu, do you think so?"
Hu Chuan "..."
He took a deep breath and tried not to say that he was gritting his teeth, "Of course it is."
"That's good. I thought Brother Hu didn't welcome us with this expression. Come on, Brother Lin, sit down quickly. Brother Hu invites us to sit together."
Hu Chuan, who didn't invite him, "..."
The scholars just now had already said hello and left, but at this moment, there were scholars coming and going around, and with so many eyes watching, he really couldn't do anything to drive the two away directly.
Zhao He sat down and kept talking, "Brother Hu, I heard that you vomited blood yesterday? Hey, I was very worried after hearing that, and I wanted to come to see you immediately. By the way, my brother Lin said that you like the hot pot base in my house, so I brought you one today."
As he said that, he took out a small box and handed it to Hu Chuan.
"Brother Hu, this is unique to my house. You have seen it in the examination room before, so you naturally know how delicious it tastes, right?"
Hu Chuan looked at the small box on the table with a gloomy face, and immediately remembered how badly he was tortured by it during the exam.
I was writing furiously, and there was a fragrance in my nose.
I was eating white porridge, and there was a fragrance in my nose.
I was sleeping, and there was another fragrance!
Every time he opened his eyes and drooled in his sleep because of the fragrance, he would think about how good it would be if he had agreed when Lin Shiheng said he would give it to him. Even in his dreams, he would smell the fragrance all night long.
But he could smell it every day, but he couldn't eat it.
Thinking of the frustration of those days, Hu Chuan clenched his fists tightly, and Zhao He's voice, as if he was very close to him, asked in his ears, "Brother Hu, you haven't answered me yet, yes or no?"
Hu Chuan gritted his teeth and said, "Yes."
"That's good, come, take it, we are classmates, we should take care of each other."
Go to your uncle's classmates! !
Hu Chuan almost breathed hard, Zhao He came over and was worried again, "Brother Hu, why do you look so bad? Are you going to vomit blood again? Come on, I'll pour you a cup of tea to calm you down."
"I'll do it."
Lin Shiheng smiled, lowered his eyes slightly, picked up the teapot with his white hands, first moved the teacup forward, then aimed the spout of the teapot and slowly poured it down.
"Brother Hu, please."
Hu Chuan stared at the same posture as when he moved a bowl of thick soup in the examination room to tempt him, and his chest was stuffy.
He picked up the teacup stiffly.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Lin Shiheng raised his eyes and smiled at him.
The look in Shen Huyang's eyes, who was looking at this side from above, made her look slightly stunned.
He is really a clear and pure gentleman.
