"This is fine. As long as Ji Min is willing, you can leave at any time." Wang Shi had no intention of rejecting Zhao Ji. He looked at Gao Qiu's nervous face on the side and added, "By the way, you can live in Ji Min, that courtyard, needless to say anything else."

"Little courtyard? Is that small courtyard at the end of the street in front of you? I heard that Lord Zeng asked you several times and you didn't give it to him. It turned out that he was living for Gao Qiu!"

Zhao Ji put down his wine glass and suddenly remembered an interesting thing he had heard before.

Two years ago, Zeng Bu, who was Zeng Gong's younger brother, was also Su Shi's close friend. He had once looked for Wang Shi. He seemed to have some relatives or friends to come to Bianliang, so he planned to come to Wang Shi's courtyard. However, because Gao Qiu lived in that courtyard, Wang Shi never let go of this matter, and then the trouble was not very happy.

Because of support for the reform, Zeng Bupingbu whispered and finally entered the Privy Council. However, because Wang Shi had no actual official position at all, Zeng Bu had no choice but to deal with Wang Shi. However, this incident spread in Bianliang. Today, Zhao Ji was really surprised to hear that Gao Qiu was involved in this.

"Yes! Ji Min has been living in that yard. When he has nothing to do on weekdays, he will come to copy and write for me. Of course, he will go over to help you in the future."

He did not take the matter of giving favor to heart at all, and Wang Sheng was like talking about a trivial matter.

"Yeah! This one can be there. However, the purpose of coming today is not for Gao Qiu. So, the prince consort, what kind of woman you are talking about, should I get it out?"

Zhao Ji was naturally very happy when he met Gao Qiu, but he still did not forget the purpose of his coming out today.

"Haha! Duan, Duan, what do you think of others? If you call me, come and sway me, then you can still be called a strange woman? If you want to see her, you have to visit her by yourself. At best, I play a role in threading needles and threads, and I can't help with anything else around me."

Wang Shi shook his head with a big laugh, making fun of Zhao Ji's "naiveness".

Of course, Zhao Ji didn't care that Wang Shu made fun of him. He glanced at Gao Qiu beside him and said directly: "What, since that's the case, then Gao Qiu, please accompany me!"

"Me? No, no! I can't accompany you. If you ask me to help you copy official documents or something, I naturally cannot refuse, but I can't accompany you in the weathered places."

Gao Qiu, who was eating vegetables, was immediately dissatisfied when he heard Zhao Ji's words.

If it was something else, let alone copying official documents, even if you were going out for a roaming, Gao Qiu wouldn't care much, but where is the place like brothels and brothels so easy to go? Although Gao Qiu had fantasized about it sometimes, when he thought of Hua Xiangrong, this idea immediately disappeared.

Seven years have passed, Hua Xiangrong has long been graceful. If Gao Qiu hadn't felt that he had not achieved anything yet, they would have been married now. Of course, when he was at home, the role played by Hua Xiangrong would be the role of the housekeeper. If Hua Xiangrong knew that Gao Qiu had gone to the brothel, he would have lost all his life.

"Hey! Gao Qiu, are you a man? If you don't go to such places, are you a little unfair to never live in your entire life? You know, Su Shi and Grand Secretary Su often went to that kind of places when they were young! Prince Consort, do you think so?"

In order to "bewitch" Gao Qiu, Zhao Ji no longer thought about anything else. He even said some of Su Shi's gossip.

Of course, in ancient times, visiting brothels was not a matter of losing their identity. Many literati and poets even lingered in it. Liu Yong and Liu Sanbian, who praised the most, lived in weathered places all year round, and the words they wrote were spread by the women there. It should be noted that although there was a Song Dynasty, although princes and ministers were not prohibited from entering and leaving weathered places, they were limited to ordinary entertainment activities, such as staying overnight, which was completely forbidden.

Although Gao Qiu had never been to such places, the prince-consort Wang Shi went there a lot. After all, many times, the gatherings between literati and poets were directly selected, so Gao Qiu knew more or less.

But how could Gao Qiu, who knew that "cleans oneself", be able to fall into depravity? Faced with Zhao Ji's persuasion, Gao Qiu was full of stubbornness, raised his chest and raised his head, insisting: "No! Absolutely not!"

"Hey hey! What do you mean to do? I know Ji Min's character best. You tell him that this is useless!" Wang Shi was a little unhappy when he saw Gao Qiu's expression, and quickly winked at Zhao Ji, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and then said, "That's it, Ji Min won't go if he doesn't want to go. It's not a big deal. But there will be a fighting ceremony later, and Ji Min's old friend will also be there. How about it? Let's go and have a look?"

"Old friend? What old friend?"

I lived in Bianliang for seven years, but if I really want to talk about my friends, Gao Qiu didn't make any friends.

First, Gao Qiu is a scholar himself and has no common language with those in the market; second, Gao Qiu, a literati class like Wang Shen, has no way to get in touch with him.

"Oh, look at my memory. It's Cai You, who participated in the Boy Ceremony with you. How about it? Do you have any impression of it?"

He picked up the chopsticks and picked up a bite of the dish, and Wang Shi slowly explained.

There was no impression of Cai You and Zhao Ji. After all, there was no contact between the two. They only met once, but it was because Gao Qiu was present. However, after hearing what Wang Shi said, Gao Qiu remembered. Cai Jing's son Cai You participated in the Boys' Examination, but because the palace examination only started the second year after the recommendation, Cai You accidentally exceeded his age, and he was disqualified from the exam without even the chance to perform.

When he helped Wang Shi copy poetry and prose, Gao Qiu had indeed heard of Cai Jing's visit to Beijing to review national history. After all, Cai Jing's literary style is also quite good, so there are many gatherings. But although he knew Wang Shi, Gao Qiu did more like a book boy. It was really not good to say when attending a poetry and prose gathering through Wang Shi. Therefore, he never attended the gathering, so naturally he never met Cai Jing and his son Cai You.

Today's gathering, with Zhao Ji's current status, if history does not change in the future, then Gao Qiu is now equivalent to a close minister. Attending a small gathering, his situation will naturally be much better than before. When he goes to the gathering, if he talks about his old friend, Cai You can really be considered one.

But Gao Qiu was half-believing and half-doubted about Wang Shu's words, "No, my son-in-law, let's not mention Cai You's matter. Just say that this gathering is really a gathering? Don't you go to Huajie Liuxiang to gather?"

"Hey! What did you say? Will I still lie to you?"

Wang Shi's face was full of impatientness and his eyebrows frowned.

"This is not accurate."

Zhao Ji, who was standing beside him, was drinking on his own, but when he heard Wang Shi's words, he subconsciously interrupted.

"Hey hey! I said Duan Qiansui, what do you mean? Is my Wang Shi so unbearable?"

It was originally a stand-in for Zhao Ji, but when Zhao Ji teased him, Wang Shi was immediately unhappy.

"I'm fine! I'm fine! I'm fine! I'm fine! I'll punish myself for one cup, and I'll punish myself for one cup!"

Understanding that he had said the wrong thing, Zhao Ji was very open-minded and picked up the wine glass and 'punished' himself a glass of wine.

"Look, it's not that I don't believe you, but what you said is really untrustworthy. Prince Consort, tell me the truth. Is the gathering you want me to go to at Huancai Pavilion or Xiaoxiang Pavilion?"

Gao Qiu knew very well about the weathered places that Wang Sheng usually visited. When he asked such words, he planned to see if Wang Sheng said true or false.

"Hi! What Huancai Pavilion, Xiaoxiang Pavilion? The venue for the gathering today is Shiwenyuan. How about it, are you going?"

When Gao Qiu pointed out the two brothels he often went to, Wang Shi couldn't help but blush, waved his hand, and quickly told him where today's gathering was.

"The Academy of Poetry and Literature? Is it an academy? This is really..."

After touching the sparse beards on his chin, Gao Qiu suddenly felt that he seemed to have really wronged the other son-in-law today.

Poetry and Literature Academy, the name is just a place to read and write, and it has nothing to do with brothels!

"What's really true? Ji Min, are you going to go? If you don't go, then just go to Duanwang to help him handle the official documents."

Realizing that Gao Qiu's attitude was not as firm as before, Wang Shen added fire again.

"Go and go! Why don't you go? I've finished working in the study. Turn your head and you want me to work? Don't even think about it!" There is no entertainment on weekdays, so you have to go out to attend a poetry and essay gathering. Gao Qiu naturally had no reason to refuse. He looked down at his clothes. Gao Qiu stood up and said, "I'll go back and change my clothes first. You must wait for me!"

"Wait! We will definitely wait!"

Wang Shi smiled and waved goodbye to Gao Qiu.

Watching Gao Qiu go away, Zhao Ji put down the wine glass in his hand and looked at Wang Sheng on the side.

"I said to the prince consort, are you kidding? Poetry and Literature Academy? I came out today and didn't come to talk about poetry and essays with people!"

Zhao Ji came out to have fun. Although it is more interesting to tease Gao Qiu, it is not worth it to take care of him.

"Hey! Duan Qiansui, what's wrong with you? Can I still lie to you? Shiwenyuan is not a poetry and literature institute, and all those who attend poetry and literature gatherings are young women. How could I lie to you?"

It is one thing to deceive Gao Qiu, but Wang Shi really dare not neglect Zhao Ji.
