The young man lowered his eyes and looked quite cold.

"Caixiao, see off the guests."

The father and son of the Yan family were invited out by the servants with bad attitudes. When Yan Qin stepped out of the threshold, he still felt a little bit wronged in his heart, and his mind was full of Lin Sui's impatience.

"Erlang, if he still comes to pester you, you should stay away from him." Yan Yu was still a little worried, for fear that after he left, Lin Sui would directly bring someone to the door and snatch his son into the mansion, and said, "No If you go to Yanzhou with me and your mother, no, the academy there is too bad, or why don’t you go to Baizhou to find your elder brother and live with him?”

Yan Qin didn't know that his father was thinking of a plot of treacherous sycophants entering the house and robbing the son of a good family, so he shook his head and said, "No need, father, if he adopts a son, it must be because of your love and my willingness, otherwise he would not have raised him." An enemy, why bother."

"Furthermore, even if I don't take part in the general examination in the capital next year, I will still have to go to Beijing during the palace examination, and I may stay in the capital in the future. I will see you when I look up."

Yan Qin knew that all the above reasons were his excuses, he didn't want to leave the capital, at least not now.

It made sense for Yan Yu to calm down and think about it, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh, both worried and relieved.

"Father, you're going to Yanzhou tomorrow, where it's hot and humid and prone to rashes, I asked Mother to bring enough ointment..."

When Yan Qin talked about tomorrow's events, Yan Yu couldn't help but follow his words, and the two of them headed home while talking.

On the second day, Yan Yu left Beijing, and before leaving, he did not forget to tell Yan Qin to stay away from Lin Sui, but Yan Qin vaguely responded, feeling unspeakable in his heart.

In the eyes of others, Yan Erlang still looks normal, extremely talented, gentle and noble, but Yan Qin himself knows that he is different.

Every time he was on his way home, he could not help but listen to the sound of carriages beside the avenue, waiting for a certain carriage to stop in front of him and extend an invitation to him.

Every time when the concierge came to pass a letter, he always felt a little disappointed when he heard that it was not that person's invitation.

I couldn't help drawing another portrait after another, and then burned it like a cover. I had a good dream at night, and my heart became more empty the next day.

The person in the dream is lying on the desk, his blue hair is like a waterfall, swaying gently with his movements, his eyes are full of mist, as if hiding hazy mist.

Yan Qin thought he couldn't go on like this, so when his friends invited him, he went out to watch them play Shuanglu.

Shuanglu is a game of gambling. Each side has fifteen chess pieces. The board is rectangular and has twelve paths. Both sides roll dice to determine how to move. The side that moves the pieces out of the board first wins.

When Yan Qin arrived at the teahouse, he went down to the second floor under Xiao Er's guidance. There were already three or four people inside the screen. Yan Qin greeted them. There are not too many rules in the room, and they are seated after saying hello.

Backgammon tests the grasp of the overall situation, but sometimes it is very lucky, and it is necessary to play tricks on dice rolls.

Occasionally, Yan Qin pointed out to his friends who were playing chess, and stood aside to watch the game, but when he heard a name, he was attracted by the movement on the other side of the screen.

Someone jokingly said: "Our Mr. Luo is going to be so prosperous in the future, and won the favor of Lord Lin, I have to ask you to take care of him a little bit more in the future."

"I didn't get favored by adults, I felt stupid, but adults praised me for being smart, and I deserve it."

The voice of Mr. Luo who spoke was a little embarrassed, but the meaning in the words was showing off no matter how you heard it.

Master Lin, there are a few adults surnamed Lin in the capital, and that one is the only one who stands out at the moment.

Yan Qin frowned slightly, how this person beat around the bush when he spoke, he accepted the compliments generously, no matter what he was showing off here, it seemed that his cleverness had to be greatly discounted.

Next to the screen was a burst of compliments, not to mention that Yan Qin couldn't stand it, even the few people who were fighting Shuanglu couldn't stand it anymore.

Yu Yanpan muttered, "He's just a person who does nothing but flatters him. It's really embarrassing to be proud of."

Others took it very seriously, and also implicitly echoed it, so as not to be spread and punished by others.

Now that people are detrimental to the country, and they can't stop the people talking, it's still no problem to kill a few scholars.

The loud laughter and conversation beside him stopped abruptly, the screen was folded up, and the two people looked at each other.

"Who of you said that just now?"

The one who opened the mouth was a young man holding a folding fan. He looked young, about fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was at the time of frivolity.

Yan Qin looked at Mr. Luo, looked left and right, but couldn't see how smart or capable he was.

"You said it? What are you doing looking at me?"

Luo Yang saw the most eye-catching young man here at a glance, and seeing him staring at him, his mood became worse.

"I didn't say it," Yan Qin said with a calm expression, looking at the backgammon board on the other side of the screen, "If you play a game with me, I want to see how smart the person Master Lin praised for his intelligence. "

Several people in Yanqin's company looked at Yanqin with admiration, they dared to disrespect Lord Lin like this, he was worthy of being the son of Lord Yan, with integrity like pines and cypresses!

However, Yan Qin was just unhappy. He was praised for his talent and intelligence since he was a child. Although he was not arrogant under his reputation, he was also very confident, but Lin Sui only said that he was 'fair', which was praised by him as intelligent and promising. He wants to see how capable he is.
