Mr. Zhuang was surprised. He didn't expect Bai Shan to remember it. He remembered that he only mentioned it once.

Bai Shan pursed his lips and asked, "Where did you see them, sir?"

Mr. Zhuang smiled and said: "In a teahouse, he didn't come to the door. Maybe he didn't know that I was in the capital. It was just that it involved old things and I felt uneasy, so I asked someone to take a look."

Man Bao: "Why are you upset, sir? Aren't they the ones who should be upset?"

Mr. Zhuang said with a smile: "My heart is concerned, and when I have worries and concerns, I naturally feel uneasy."

Not only Man Bao, but also Bai Shan didn't understand, "Sir, if we are here, what are we afraid of?"

Mr. Zhuang said: "That's not what I'm worried about."

He sighed: "My heart is very complicated. I am worried and worried, and I feel uneasy because of worry..."

Bai Shan and Man Bao were puzzled.

Mr. Zhuang said: "I don't have many friends in my life, and Yao Ge is one of them."

Mr. Zhuang met Yao Ge when he was studying abroad. Later, they bumped into each other when they went to Beijing to take the exam. They both had children and got along well with each other. They immediately got together and rented a yard to live together.

Half of it was a very unhappy time.

Mr. Zhuang looked at the two disciples and said, "This is just like when the three of you were studying together. You go in and go out together. You can discuss books when you go in together, and you can make friends when you go out together. At that time, the two of us were rushing to take the Imperial Examination.

Come."

"Later I met Chen Fulin in the capital. I knew that there was no hope of getting admitted to the Imperial Academy, so I decided to wait until the autumn for the Jinshi examination and try to take the Jinshi examination. If I failed, I could also take the Mingjing examination the next year." He sighed: "

At that time, I was not completely confident, but he kept encouraging me. Neither of our families were very wealthy, but at that time he would show me the books he borrowed first, and then he would read them himself."

Man Bao and Bai Shan were surprised.

They only knew that Yao Ge stole his husband's poems and gave them to Chen Fulin, but they didn't know that their relationship would be so good, so his husband must be even more sad, right?

Man Bao pursed his lips and asked, "I never asked Mr. why he did that?"

Mr. Zhuang looked far away and said softly: "It's nothing more than money. At that time, his child was seriously ill..."

Mr. Zhuang sighed, not hiding it from his two disciples, "So I resent him, but I don't resent him that much."

To put it bluntly, Mr. Zhuang still has feelings for this former friend, so he is a little uneasy after being worried.

Bai Shan and Man Bao looked at each other. At present, their friends are friends and their enemies are enemies. There has not yet been a situation where enemies are friends, so they cannot understand Mr. Zhuang's psychology.

If you don't understand, you have to ask. Manbao asked: "What do you want to do, sir?"

Mr. Zhuang said: "I have no plans to do anything. I just know their purpose of coming to the capital. Let everything take its course."

Mr. Zhuang thought that since the capital was so big, they might not meet again.

But I didn't expect that the concierge would receive a letter addressed to Mr. Zhuang the next day.

Mr. Zhuang couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the familiar handwriting on the envelope.

Bai Shan and Man Bao, who were in a hurry to go to the Yamen, walked by and saw Mr. Jiang. They thought it was Mr. Jiang and they had invited him to have tea again, so they waved and said: "Sir, let's go first."

Mr. Zhuang came back to his senses, waved to them, and was not in a hurry to leave. Today was not a large court meeting, there was only one class in the Chongwen Hall, so he was not in a hurry.

Mr. Zhuang opened the letter next to the car, read it once, and put it away.

He had been a little uneasy all day, and even Yin You could tell it, and couldn't help but ask: "Did you encounter any difficulties, sir?"

When Mr. Zhuang saw him, he suddenly felt blessed and couldn't help laughing.

Yin You looked at him with an incomprehensible expression.

Mr. Zhuang laughed heartily for a while, looked at Yin You and said: "I am the one who is obsessed with the appearance. Others are timid in their hometown. What am I? Hahaha..."

Yin You still didn't understand, but seeing that Mr. Zhuang had returned to normal, he said: "Sir, your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have agreed that I leave Chongwen Hall. I will not come into the palace in two days."

Mr. Zhuang asked with a smile, "What are you going to do after you stop studying?"

Yin You said with a smile: "I feel comfortable just reading at home and going to Huguo Temple to see Master Zhiren from time to time."

Mr. Zhuang knew that Yin You had no one to talk to in the Chongwen Hall now. A new group of students had been selected this year, and the distance between him and Yin You was even further. He was not very happy staying in the palace, so he nodded.

Mr. Zhuang watched him leave, and then went to the banquet calmly after leaving the office.

It was the same teahouse as yesterday. As soon as Mr. Zhuang walked in, a waiter came up to him and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhuang, are you sitting on the second floor or in the lobby today?"

Mr. Zhuang said: "I'm here to keep my appointment in Mei's private room."

When the waiter heard this, he immediately smiled and asked Mr. Zhuang to go up to the second floor. He went to a private room with a plum hanging on the door, opened the door and invited him in.

There was a person sitting in the room, and I don't know how long he had been sitting there. He raised his head when he heard the door open, and lowered his eyes when he saw it was still the waiter. But after a moment, he raised his head again and looked straight at the person behind the waiter.

Mr. Zhuang walked in, nodded slightly to the waiter, and let him go out.

The waiter closed the door for them, and suddenly there were only two people left in the private room.

Mr. Zhuang looked at the people sitting there, and his father-in-law also looked at him. He stood up slowly while holding on to the table. He wanted to smile, but found that he couldn't. After a while, he sighed: "I

I thought you wouldn’t come.”

Mr. Zhuang walked to the table and sat down. Unlike being polite and distant when facing Chen Fulin, he couldn't even be polite when facing the man in front of him.

So Mr. Zhuang chose to look calm, pointed to the chair opposite and said, "Sit down."

Yao Ge held the table and sat down slowly. The two of them didn't speak for a while, just looking at each other.

In the end, Yao Ge came to his senses, stood up, picked up the teapot, and poured tea for him with slightly trembling hands. He pushed the tea to Mr. Zhuang and said with a wry smile: "They say that people can't do bad things in this life, and it's true."

Mr. Zhuang held the tea, looked at the man who was older than him, and couldn't help but sigh: "Is that why you came to me to talk about this?"

Yao Ge shook his head, "I originally thought I would never see you in this life. We are so far apart, and maybe there will be no chance. If there is a chance, I would be shameless."

Mr. Zhuang frowned slightly.

"But someone came to see me. After thinking about it, I thought I should come and see you. Firstly, it's a matter of concern. Secondly, it should be to make amends for what happened back then."

Mr. Zhuang looked at him in surprise, "Someone is looking for you? Does it have anything to do with me?"

Yao Ge nodded, "Not long ago, someone came to me to inquire about what happened back then. I heard him say that not only did you become an official now, but you also forced Chen Fulin to become an official and return to his hometown. He will not be able to set foot in the capital for the rest of his life. I was very surprised."

He twitched his lips and said with a smile: "It shows that God is still fair in this world, and retribution does not come easily. People who do wrong things will always receive retribution."
