After listening to the old man's suggestion, Zhang Muzhi pushed the breakfast cart to the entrance of the Imperial Academy and set up a stall early the next morning.

"This old man really doesn't deceive me!"

Zhang Muzhi looked at the students coming and going. All of them were well-dressed, including expensive fabrics and jewelry!

What kind of students are they? They are just walking around like mountains of gold and silver!

He placed his sign in a very conspicuous place.

Soon a burly young man with a height of seven feet and wearing black clothes came over.

"No matter how miserable your life is, you can't sell a cake for five cents?" the young man said after carefully looking at the sign.

"This is not an ordinary cake, this is Wang Wei Shili... This is a delicious egg-filled cake!"

"I'll get a taste of three cents and take care of your business!"

"Is five cents expensive?" Zhang Muzhi was very puzzled.

Shouldn't these rich kids just throw out a piece of silver and tell themselves there's no need to look for it?

This is different from what’s shown in scripts and TV series!

How could he still bargain with himself?

"Xu Huizu, have you told your sister about the Poetry Club?"

The young man looked back at the man with a straight face and said, "Li You, you don't invite me, but you still want me to send a message to my sister. What a beautiful idea!"

Zhang Mu was stunned and looked carefully at the young man in front of him. This was actually Xu Da's son!

"Your sister was invited by Hu Xiang's daughter, who is also my fiancée, and this poetry meeting is conducted in pairs. Who is willing to go with you, a poor student?"

"All the intellectuals are gathered together, why are you joining in the fun?" Li You said.

In this simple conversation, Zhang Muzhi captured an important message.

This young man named Li You is Hu Weiyong's future son-in-law, and Hu Weiyong's daughter will also participate in this poetry meeting.

Now it’s time to break off the engagement!

"Poetry party? I wonder where it will be held?" Zhang Muzhi looked at Li You and said.

Li You looked at Zhang Muzhi and said disdainfully, "We are holding a poetry meeting, what kind of cat and dog are you? You still want to go, why don't you show your identity by peeing!"

"Master, look where you are thinking. Although I am literate, I know that my status is shallow! I just want to buy some egg-filled pancakes!"

Zhang Muzhi was polite, but in his heart he was already greeting Li You's family!

In order to cancel the marriage and avoid causing unnecessary trouble, he endured it!

At this moment, he couldn't help but admire that he was really a man, able to bend and stretch!

"Hmph! You know the current affairs, unlike some people who insist on inserting onions into pigs' noses when they don't have three ounces of ink in their stomachs!"

"The poetry meeting is on the painting boat on the Qinhuai River. You can prepare some fruits and snacks to send over. The money will be yours!" Li You said as he turned his attention to Xu Huizu.

"What do you mean? Believe it or not, I will slap your mouth!" Xu Huizu's eyes were as wide as bells, and his clenched fists made a "click" sound.

"What? You still want to hit me?" Li You said.

"Can't I beat you? Don't you just rely on your uncle being Li Shanchang? I don't have a good uncle, but my father is Xu Da!"

Xu Huizu's verbal skills were also very good and he immediately hit Li You's pain point.

Although Li You's father was also an official in the court, his family was not in Li Shanchang's favor.

To put it bluntly, you are a freeloader, and Li You is very jealous of this!

"You..." Li You's fig leaf was removed by Xu Hui, but he was not angry but laughed.

Li You said, "You'd better tell your sister to attend the poetry meeting, or I'll tell the Master that you ask your sister to help you with your homework!"

"You..." Now it was Xu Huizu's turn to be in trouble.

If this matter was revealed, he would be killed immediately.

By then Xu Da knew that he would be subjected to large-scale domestic violence!

"Okay! You may be cruel, but I have to go too!" Xu Huizu said, "Who knows if you will have evil thoughts towards my sister!"

"You can't go because there is no one to team up with you!" Li You turned around and prepared to enter the Imperial Academy.

"Who said there isn't?" Xu Huizu said hurriedly, "I'm looking for Tang Ding!"

"He already has a partner!" Li You said playfully, "And registration ends at noon today! You don't have time to look for him anymore!"

"You, you come with me!" Xu Huizu looked at Zhang Muzhi anxiously.

"Me?" Zhang Mu was stunned, this person is trying to drag me into trouble!

Li You burst out laughing, "Okay! If you're not afraid of making a fool of yourself, just let him be your companion!"

Zhang Muzhi naturally didn't want to see Xu Huizu's momentum and refused, fearing that he would ruin his own business.

"Just don't say anything then!" Seeing Li Youyuan leaving, Xu Huizu hurriedly warned, "Otherwise, you will embarrass me!"

"Actually, I know a little bit about poetry, maybe..."

He was interrupted by Xu Huizu halfway through his words, "What do you know as a stall keeper?"

He was about to refute when Xu Huizu, who paid the money and was about to leave, gave up the opportunity to refute.

You may not be able to meet Hu Weiyong's daughter directly when you go to deliver things. The probability of meeting Hu Weiyong's daughter with Xu Huizu is still very high!

Xu Huizu took a bite as he walked, looked back at him and said, "It's really good. This egg-filled cake costs at least ten cents!"

…

Soon many people bought their own egg-filled pancakes. After closing the stall, he went to Jiming Temple to set up a stall to see a doctor.

Seeing a doctor is not as busy as buying egg-filled cakes. Zhang Muzhi also leisurely squinted his eyes and rested for a while.

At this time, a pilgrim came out to offer incense and happened to see the content on the signboard of Zhang Muzhi's pendulum.

"Xiao Langjun, your master is really not a human being!" He took out three coins from his arms and walked to him, "Take out the bowl in your car!"

"What do you mean?" Zhang Muzhi took out the bowl suspiciously.

Only a few "bang" sounds were heard, and three copper plates fell into the bowl where the eggs were beaten.

"What do you mean?"

Looking at the three copper plates spinning in the bowl, Zhang Muzhi said, "I'm not a beggar, I set up a stall to treat people!"

"I know, I know! It's not easy for you to see through but don't tell me!"

"Hey! You are slandering me!" When Zhang Muzhi spoke, the man had already got on the carriage and left.

He didn't see any patients at noon, so he had to pack up his things and go home to take a nap.

As soon as he returned home, he saw two Guardsmen wearing Feiyu uniforms coming towards him.

"Just a reminder, you must never interact with the Lu family again!"

"What's wrong?"

"I witnessed something big happen while I was on duty today, a big thing!"

"What's up?"

"It concerns the Crown Princess!"

"What's wrong with the Crown Princess?"

Although the conversation between the two was not loud, after all, there was only a wall between them, and he could hear it clearly.

"The Crown Princess has been suffering from weakness after childbirth, but the concubine Lu has been secretly adding something to the Crown Princess's tonics!"

"Ah? There is such a thing!"

"Then what does the prince plan to do?"

"I don't know yet! I guess the Lu family is in doom. The concubine's crime of murdering the principal wife is a serious crime!"

"Thank you for reminding me, I have to clear my relationship with the Lu family as soon as possible! If these big shots shake their heads, we little guys will be in danger!"

"But how did you discover this?"

"It seems that His Highness the Crown Prince has met a strange person. I don't know the details either!"

"The less you know about this matter, the better. You must come to my treat tonight!"

…

Zhang Muzhi, who had been leaning against the wall and listening, murmured, "Why does this sound like Brother Zhu Shou? Could he be the prince?"

"Impossible!" Zhang Muzhi thought this was just a coincidence.

A prince is not free, especially a prince like Zhu Biao.

Every day must be full of arrangements. Whether it is schoolwork or studying and dealing with government affairs, he will be very busy. How can he have time to go out and play?

The next day when he went to set up a stall in front of the Imperial Academy, Li You gave Zhang Muzhi a list and some silver coins.
