Since he missed the book the night before yesterday, and then had the spirit of sending the book to the Shen family, as soon as he woke up, Du He fell into deep uncertainty and self-doubt, suffering from gains and losses, and was deeply afraid that the development of events would not go as he wished. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Presenting the book to the Shen family is already a summary of what he has thought and learned for half his life, if it can't be reverberated to make people look at it, then he doesn't know what else he can rely on to make people look up. So for him, this is his last chance in the capital, and he is inevitably extremely apprehensive in his heart.

What made Duch even more distressed was that there was no one to confide in this uneasy feeling. Although the members of the trilogy attaché around him are all loyal and righteous servants, they are not good people to talk to. The only best friend, Chu Jiye, lives in Taicheng most of the time, and it is rare to see each other in leisure. As for Du Yi, orphans and widows are at home, and he really doesn't want to bother him often.

So in the next few days, Du He often wandered aimlessly near the Qinhuai River. Occasionally passing by Shen Garden, seeing the towering star-picking tower, and seeing the crowded courtyard with guests and traffic, my heart was full of loss and frustration, and I could only use the Shen family as an excuse to comfort myself with too many visitors and no time to take care of myself, but my mood was getting heavier and heavier.

After suffering for a few days, Du He's whole body became haggard, and he finally waited for Chu Jiye, but the news brought by the other party made Du He even more depressed.

After not seeing each other for a few days, Chu Jiye hurried to Guanyu, where Du He lived, and when he saw Du He's haggard appearance, he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Dao Hui is sick?" Why is it such a weak posture that is unbearable to the weight of Luo Yi? ”

Du Heqiang smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Probably because he is not satisfied with the water and soil, he is a little tired, Brother Ji Ye doesn't have to worry." ”

"After all, you still have to take care of your body, don't work too hard."

Chu Jiye breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then said with a smile: "By the way, the Shen family's invitation should have been sent, right?" Daohui rested early today, recuperated his spirits, and waited until tomorrow when I went to Shen Yuan with you. Shen Lang is interesting and strange, and he is not only unique. Daohui, your family has learned from you, and when you respond appropriately, you will show yourself. ”

When Du He heard this, his face changed suddenly: "Invitation? I haven't seen it, has Brother Ji Ye already received it? ”

Chu Jiye was also surprised when he heard this, and asked the servant to send the invitation card of the Shen family that he received the day before yesterday, held it in his hand and said: "This invitation was sent to my house as early as the day before yesterday. Haven't you received it yet? ”

Du He's expression was gloomy, he shook his head, took the invitation card handed by Chu Jiye, held it in his hand and looked at it for a while. This invitation is indeed exquisitely made, not inferior to the Nanyuan ticket redemption he saw earlier at Du Yi's house, and the handwriting on it is the most respected guard body nowadays, which makes people love it, probably the surprise that Chu Jiye said earlier.

However, no matter how beautiful the invitation is, it has nothing to do with itself. At the thought that everyone else had been invited, and that he was the only one who had been left out, Duch was even more pessimistic and depressed.

Seeing that Du He's expression was quite sad, Chu Jiye pondered for a moment and comforted: "Earlier, the Shen family decided that they would not leave out those who invested in the famous post, probably because Daohui You have not settled in the capital, so it has been delayed. Don't worry too much, it will come soon. ”

Hearing this, Du He's heart became more and more sad, he had taken this section into account when he sent someone to submit the book earlier, and at the end of the article he had already detailed his foothold in the capital, and it was impossible that there was no possibility of sending invitations nowhere!

Thinking of his painstaking work and half of his life's learning being abandoned, Du He's heart was even more twisted, and he decided not to tell Chu Jiye that he had submitted to the Shen family, and he could still retain the last bit of humble self-esteem.

While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door suddenly, Du He got up to greet him, and saw two Taoist priests standing outside the door, and asked in surprise: "I don't know what the two of you came to meet?" ”

One of the Taoist priests saw Du He, and a slightly apologetic smile appeared on his face: "There is indeed something to inform Du Langjun, my family Guanyu is mostly provided by nobles in the capital. Later, the nobleman's family had a female dependent who wanted to enter the temple to recuperate, so it was inconvenient to stay in the view. If it is convenient for Du Langjun, I hope that he can choose a good place to live in the next few days. ”

When Du He heard this, the anger that had been stored in his heart for a long time suddenly erupted: "The goods offered by my family before, obviously agreed to be borrowed until the end of the month, but now it is only the middle of the month, how can you be so untrustworthy!" ”

Another Taoist priest saw Du He's anger, and immediately sneered unceremoniously: "It is said that you can live until the end of the month, but your family has many servants, all of whom are as fierce as evil ghosts, and the daily consumption of rice and grain is several times that of the usual." I waited for my patience to invite Lang Jun out again now, which is already a rare benevolence! Your Excellency, if you have a mouth, you might as well visit one or two, how can food and housing be so cheap in other homes! If you and other poor people are still entangled, you are the real murderer! ”

"How dare Piffan insult me like this!"

When Du He heard this, his face suddenly turned red, he was a high-ranking man in the north, and after crossing the river, he was treated coldly and fell down, and even the little Taoist in front of him made sarcastic remarks, which really made him unbearable, and when he returned to the room and drew his sword, he said in a fierce voice: "I swear to kill you Xue shame!" ”

When the two Taoist priests saw Du He's fierce state, their faces changed, and they hurriedly turned around and ran away.

Seeing this, Chu Jiye also hurriedly stood up, stretched out his hand to hold Du He's sword, and comforted: "Dao Hui is angry, that Taoist disciple is indeed annoying, why bother with this villain's words." This is not a place to live forever, so it is better to leave. I've been at home for the last few days, so Daohui simply moved to my house for a while. ”

"Forced to be humiliated so far, what face to see again!"

Duhe's expression was agitated, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground, hiding his face and weeping silently. He also knew that Chu Jiye had a narrow door in the atrium of the capital, so how could he bring many attachés to his mansion to disturb him.

Chu Jiye was still about to persuade him, but a servant of the Du family rushed in outside the door and shouted: "Liulang, it's not good!" Feng Er and they were arrested by the guards in the city and have been taken to the county government ......"

Hearing this, Du He's face changed again, and he didn't care about self-pity and self-harm, wiped away the tears on his face and asked, "Why did the guards arrest them?" ”

The servant glanced at Chu Jiye, opened his mouth but didn't make a sound. Seeing this, Du He immediately understood why his family had violated the ban, and immediately became anxious in his heart, and turned to Chu Jiye and said: "Today is really eventful, it is inconvenient to entertain more guests, and I will visit Brother Ji Ye in the future." ”

"What else are you talking about!"

Chu Jiye patted Du He on the shoulder and said, "Daohui, you don't peep into the door in the capital, and I will go to the county government with you to rescue your family!" ”

Saying that, without waiting for Du He's refusal, Chu Jiye asked the servant to move the ox cart, and while instructing someone to send Du He's luggage to his house, he urged Du He to board the car quickly.

Seeing that Chu Jiye was so enthusiastic about helping, Du He couldn't say anything about refusal, so he could only board the car and go to the county government together.

The ox cart traveled all the way, and soon arrived in front of the Danyang County Mansion, Chu Jiye got out of the car and said to Du He: "Wait a little in front of Daohui Court, I will first go to the county government to ask a friend why I took someone." ”

After finishing speaking, Chu Jiye hurriedly entered the Danyang County Mansion. He had a relationship with the Du family, but Du Henan came to cause trouble, and he felt that he was not taking good care of himself, so he felt guilty in his heart.

Du He stood outside the county government in a worried mood, not only worried about his own parts, but also worried that Chu Jiye might be ashamed to see the inside story after knowing the inside story later, and he was already burning.

After about half an hour, Chu Jiye walked out of the county government, his expression was gloomy like pouring lead water, and he stared at Du He for a long time after going out.

Seeing this, Du He felt even more difficult to face, and stepped forward and whispered: "Brother Ji Ye, I ......"

"Shut up!"

Chu Jiye was really so angry that he didn't know what to say, his previous experience was an embarrassing humiliation that he had never experienced in his life, he never expected that the servant of the Du family would be sentenced for rat theft. When his friends learned that he was actually asking for help for such a thief, the strange look in his eyes made Chu Jiye want to hide his face and leave.

"Du Daohui, you, you are worthy of your ancestors! You ......"

Hearing Chu Jiye's questioning, Du He couldn't bear it anymore, covered his face and said sadly: "I know that I have no face to face Brother Ji Ye again...... I, I'm also ashamed to establish the world again, but, just cheekily ask Ji Ye and Chu Jun to rescue my family, they are the only loyal people in my family, and it's really hard to give up...... If Chu Jun rescues my family, I, I will leave the capital, and I will not disturb Chu Jun in the slightest, and we will never see each other again! ”

Chu Jiye was indeed furious in his heart, and he almost couldn't help but cut off his robe with Du He, but thinking that this young man's family had died in the north, and he had no relatives in the capital, only he could still rely on him, so he couldn't bear to say ruthlessly.

After being silent for a long time, he said astringently: "There are still few people who know about this matter, you must not come forward again, if this matter is known, I don't know that you have no place in the capital, even your family Qingwang ...... Alas, why bother for this! ”

"Then those people in my family ......" Du He wiped away his tears and glanced at the majestic Yimen of the county government, and his heart was also remorseful.

When Chu Jiye heard this, his eyes were filled with annoyance, and he pulled Du He to the side of the road and shouted, "Do you know what kind of property your family's illegal logging is?" It's King Nanton! This sect king is unreasonable and still wants to entangle three points, but now your family is taking the initiative to provoke his family, how can you give up easily! I'm just afraid that this matter will be known all over the city and add to the evil noise in your house. If you can't do anything, you can only give up on your family ......"

Du He was shocked when he heard this, shook his head hurriedly, and then said with a wry smile: "So far, what reputation does my family have to cherish?" It was a remnant house, how could it be tiring people because of false names. I also know that my family is unbearable about this, and I am ashamed to speak up in front of others. I'll think of a way to do this again, Brother Ji Ye, you still refuse to abandon me, it's all right, and it's really not appropriate to get involved in this again. ”

"Daohui, don't be impulsive and make mistakes, this matter is definitely not a matter of will! King Nanton ......"

Chu Jiye looked embarrassed, if he changed to a different time, there may be room for change in this matter, but now Zhongshu has a lot of persecution for King Nanton, even in order not to be looked down upon coldly, King Nanton will definitely make a big fuss about a little thing, with his light words in the capital, even if he has the heart to help, he is powerless, and he really can't bear to see Du He make a senseless sacrifice.

Listening to Chu Jiye talk about the delicate situation in the capital now, Du He realized what kind of trouble his family had caused, originally he thought that his predicament had reached the extreme, but he didn't expect that bigger blows would come one after another, it was like an endless sea of suffering. For a while, he had the feeling that the heavens and the earth were so big that he had nowhere to live, and almost all his thoughts were lost.

At this time, an ox cart on the avenue slowly came, and when it was approaching, the person in the car suddenly pointed to Chu Jiye and said in surprise: "I finally saw Chu Jun, my lord ordered me to personally invite a newly entered the capital Jingzhao Du Jun, but I couldn't find it." I only heard that Chu Jun and this Du Jun had a love contract, I don't know if there can be Lao Chujun to introduce him? ”
