After the engagement, it was the emperor's birthday on April [-]th that attracted the most attention.So everyone clamped their tails between their legs and behaved themselves, not wanting to cause trouble in April.Even the adults in the prison who were caught shut up, knelt on the ground and begged God to bless the emperor instead of biting each other.

On April [-]th, not all officials could enter the palace to pay their respects.Fusuibo cannot.He has been introduced to Shen Chi as a friend by Ning Shuo.Officials like Fu Suibo were very attracted to Shenchi. Fusuibo originally wanted to befriend Shenchi because of Ningshuo's reputation, but later he was conquered by his character and the two became good brothers.

So Ning Shuo went to the palace to have a banquet. After helping Suibo to be fine, he ran to sell goods with Shenchi.After running like this, I actually ran into someone familiar.On this day, the two of them were queuing up at the city gate to leave the city. Fu Suibo saw a man who was entering the city whom he knew very well.

He hesitated for a moment, and called out hesitantly, "Nujiang?"

Hearing this, Du Nujiang took a look and laughed, "It's Brother Suibo."

Fu Suibo was overjoyed and said, "You are such a boy! I have been away from home for many years and I haven't seen you for a long time."

He then introduced him and Shen Chi, "Brother Shen Xian, this is my wife's neighbor."

Shen Chi still said very little when facing other people. He just smiled and said, "Brother Fu, since you meet this fellow countryman, you can go back with us. You don't have to accompany me."

Fu Suibo apologized, "Next time I'll go to the outskirts of Beijing with you."

Shen Chi smiled and left.

Du Nujiang looked surprised, "He's a salesman, right? Brother Fu, why are you..."

Fu Suibo: "This is a hard-working and honest man, but also a noble character."

Du Nujiang is twenty-three this year, about the same age as Shen Chi, and has the pride of a scholar. He looked down on these low-level people, so he smiled and said: "Brother really knows a lot."

Fu Suibo still couldn't hear what he meant, he was unhappy, and said: "You are very aggressive."

But because he was acquainted with him when he was young, he didn't say much, he just said: "Do you have a place to live? If not, go live with me."

Du Nujiang: "I'm not going. I've already found a place to stay. But I want to go to your place to have a few drinks and meet Sister Chunniang."

Du Chunniang is the name of Fu Suibo's wife.

So the two of them returned home. Mrs. Fu was very happy to see the person. She asked her children to go out to get a drink, and cooked several big dishes herself. After drinking for three rounds, Du Nujiang looked at the sky and said curiously: "I haven't been back just now. God, I forgot that today is His Majesty's birthday banquet - logically speaking, my brother can go to the banquet, right?"

Fu Suibo sighed, "Hey, things are complicated, I'll tell you."

After he finished speaking, Du Nujiang sighed, "Brother, this is an unreasonable disaster."

Then he said with relief: "Come, eat, we two brothers have eaten early, those adults have to wait for the banquet in the evening."

The birthday banquet is in the evening.

Fu Suibo quickly covered his mouth, "You really are! You still have such a big mouth."

The two exchanged cups. Du Nujiang was very happy and said: "Your Majesty is opening Enke this time. Everyone who knows about it is rushing to Kyoto, especially those who are good at reading. They want to get the first place this time."

Fu Suibo: "It's time to come. If you don't win this year, there will be next year. Two chances are better than one."

Du Nujiang whispered: "It's not that simple. When the students of Yuzhou Academy heard that Enke was introduced this time to give opportunities to scholars in the north, they took a deep breath and wanted to take the metropolitan exam in Kyoto. When the time comes... Squeeze out one by one. Let the people in the north see how powerful the people in the south are."

Fu Suibo took a breath, "What - are you really, really here?"

Du Nujiang nodded.

Fu Suibo panicked, "Oh no, something is going to happen."

Du Nujiang didn't understand, so he took a sip of wine and asked, "What happened?"

Fu Suibo couldn't say well either.

But he also occasionally followed Ning Shuo to investigate Sui Boying's case. When he found the critical moment, he could see the wealth in the south of the Yangtze River and the poverty in the north.He still remembered what Ning Shuo said to Boss Bu Yuchuan: "Follow Boying's thinking, the students search and search, and finally get a little bit of inheritance. Now that Enke is opened, I am afraid that the disputes of the past will be revived... Sir, student want to try to do it.”

He thought at that time, what does Ning Shuo want to do?Just now he suddenly understood something.

He also felt that something was going to happen, so did he want to do something?

……

In the palace, at the birthday banquet, King Jin came over with a glass of wine to drink with Ning Shuo.Duke Ning Guo and Ning Chao and Ning Chen met and stood up to drink together. King Jin smiled and said, "Lord Xiao Ning is very busy these days and has helped me a lot, so I'll come to toast him."

Ning Shuo was neither humble nor arrogant, "Your Majesty has promoted his subordinates."

King Jin actually quite liked Ning Shuo's personality.It's a pity that this person has learned a lot from Bu Yuchuan, and he can't win him over no matter what.

It's not like the King of Jin has never tried to win over Ning Shuo these days, but no matter in terms of wealth, interests or reputation, this man remains unmoved. He is really a hard nut to crack, and he is the son of Ning Guogong, so he is even more difficult to move.

What's more, Ning Guogong seems to be more loved by his father recently.

Just when he thought this, he saw his father calling the eunuch beside him to give Ning Guogong food.Ning Guogong naturally wanted to take his children there to express his gratitude.Holding the wine, King Jin watched the four people from Duke Ning's Mansion walking forward, while he stood at the bottom, being stared at by everyone, and suddenly laughed at himself.

Father, my son is just here to propose a toast.

He picked up the flask and poured himself a glass to drink. Just as he was about to go back, he saw the prince holding out his little finger and gesturing.

A trace of anger flashed in King Jin's eyes.

Such a person...such a person can actually hurt his vitality.

It's not fair.

……

On the other side, the Crown Princess was ringing the banquet bell and talking.People around her came over intentionally or unintentionally, smiling, and they were all complimenting her, and no one was a bad person.Feast Bell looked calm and talked to several ladies.

Sheng's mother was talking to Mrs. Li on the side. When she saw it, she clicked her tongue, "Is that a banquet bell? What a big girl. It's only been a year."

Ms. Li smiled and said: "There will be changes in the future. She is a very smart girl."

Then he turned around and saw that Mrs. Han was pulling Yun Niang to talk again, so she quickly said: "Yun Niang, I'm a little dizzy."

Mrs. Han: "..."

She smiled but said, "I didn't think about anything else. I haven't seen my daughter for a long time and I just wanted to talk to her."

Li Shi refused, "I really have a headache, let Yun Niang stay with me."

Mrs. Han left angrily.

Mrs. Li felt relieved now, took Yun Niang's hand and said, "Don't follow her, I'm afraid she will cause trouble."

Then turned around again, but did not see the Crown Princess and Yanling.She frowned and asked her mother-in-law, "Where is the banquet bell?"

The mother-in-law whispered: "The Crown Princess has just arrived from the palace. The Crown Princess sent someone to say a few words to Your Majesty, and then Miss Sheng went with the Crown Princess."

As soon as the words were finished, Miss Wu came back and said: "It seems that something happened in the East Palace. The Crown Princess left in a hurry. Before leaving, she was holding the hand of the banquet bell, but she forgot to let go when she was leaving. I looked at the banquet bell like It’s hard to break away, so we walked away together.”

Mrs. Li's heart jumped, "Just don't let anything big happen."

Sheng's mother was anxious, "Can we go and have a look?"

Li shook her head and said, "Your Majesty is celebrating his birthday, so don't leave without permission. Xixi, you can't leave either, otherwise you will be disrespectful to His Majesty. Yan Ling has grown up now, please let her go."

He also comforted: "There is the Crown Princess here, don't be afraid, the Crown Princess is steady, and will not let Yanling have an accident."
