The prince is very cruel

"Master Pei, goodbye!"

After saying that, he turned and left, calmly and composedly, not like a young man. He could easily accept Pei Xingwen's scrutiny, but he also showed great generosity and did not make things awkward, making it difficult for Pei Nan.

In this respect, he is far superior to Pei Xingwen's narrow-mindedness.

Pei Xingwen's face darkened when he saw him leave. He snorted again and said, "Young man, you'd better remember that the Pei family is not yours to climb!"

Guan Ning's footsteps paused, his knuckles clenched until they turned white, and anger appeared in his eyes.

Any man would feel unhappy and insulted to be looked down upon like this, but he endured it in the end, not considering the other person's feelings, after all, Pei Nan was his sworn brother.

He slowly turned his head, his eyes like a wolf's, captivating.

"Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. Sir, don't look down on the young and poor!" After saying this, he walked away with a very determined back.

Pei Xingwen was shocked and murmured, "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. Don't look down on the young and poor..."

His eyes suddenly lit up: "Don't look down on the poor young man! This boy is even more outstanding than his father was back then. It's a pity, it's a pity that he won't live past the age of 25. He is destined to die young."

"If Duke Guan hadn't died, we could have been together, but the Guan family has fallen into decline."

He shook his head and didn't care.

After leaving the attic, Guan Ning was unaffected and went to Quetai alone.

Quetai is the central location of Shangyin Pavilion, surrounded by three libraries. It has mountains, water and bridges, covers a very large area, and is filled with tables from the inside to the outside.

They were arranged in order of status and fame, and many people had already taken their seats.

When Guan Ning took out the sign, he was surprised to find that the invitation Pei Nan found for him was actually for a seat inside Quetai, which was the most core circle!

Looking around, everyone is either rich or noble, and all of them are scholars who have been famous in the capital for a long time. They talk eloquently and write eloquently, with a strong scholarly air, but they seem to be showing off.

"It's a pity that Pei Nan is gone, otherwise we could have a drink and chat." He muttered, because poetry gatherings often last a whole day and it would be boring to be alone.

He stopped and watched for a while, trying to find He Zhijie, and then strike up a conversation with him to see if he could recruit him.

It was also at this time that the scholars who participated in the poetry meeting noticed Guan Ning. They talked about him secretly and kept their distance from him. Wherever Guan Ning went, the place would be empty.

He was afraid of being associated with Guan Ning and causing dissatisfaction among Zhao Qing.

Guan Ning didn't care about this and was about to go around the long bridge and enter Quetai.

Suddenly, a young man in a blue robe stopped me and came up with a big smile on his face: "Prince Guan."

"My name is Chen Tu. I've long heard of your name!"

Guan Ning stopped and looked at the other person blankly. He didn't recognize him. He was in his twenties, good-looking, but a little dark. However, his face was very kind. He looked like a young man, but not a first-class one, so he could only sit a little outside.

Seeing that the other party was so polite and had no ill intentions, he politely bowed and said, "Nice to meet you."

"Hehe, Master Guan, I've been following you for a long time. It was really satisfying when you confronted Zhao Qing just now. You're a real man!" He whispered, raised his thumb, and made no secret of his approval.

Guan Ning smiled modestly and said, "It's just a little bit of verbal skill."

"Why, do you have a grudge against him too?"

"Yes, yes. This bastard relies on his father and acts arrogantly. If I wasn't afraid of implicating my family, I would have beaten him up a long time ago. He even stole an antique from me during the Lantern Festival last year!" Chen Tu said with gritted teeth.

Hearing this, Guan Ning couldn't help but sigh. It's the same everywhere, the big fish eat the small fish. Even if you are a rich young man, the bigger rich young men will still bully you unless you pay your respects to them.

In this world, only a strong fist is the truth.

"By the way, Brother Guan, let's not talk about these unhappy things. I see you have been standing for a long time. Is there no seat? Come, sit with me. I came here alone too." Chen Tu invited warmly and was very familiar.
