Chapter 313 I, Li Bangyan, can’t coax a child with my methods? (Second update)
There was plenty of wine and delicacies, and there was enough meat and wine. Compared to the rough diet of the Liao Kingdom, the Song Dynasty’s diet was far more sophisticated.
When Gao Zhang and others were climbing up the stairs with their coats in hand, they heard a burst of laughter from behind.
Gao Zhang nodded subconsciously and saw a young man who looked exactly like the protagonist Ximen Qing in the old Hong Kong movie "The Golden Lotus".
Just as two other men of about the same age entered the restaurant, they heard Zhou Bangyan behind him let out a soft sigh.
The young man also saw the group of people here. When he saw clearly that Zhou Bangyan was among them, he couldn't help but look happy and quickly moved forward.
"Oh, isn't this a halal layman? I didn't expect that the boy and the layman are so predestined.
Not only have we met several times in Kuaihuo Building, but we can also meet by chance here. I wonder, layman, this is..."
Gao Zhang saw Zhou Bangyan subconsciously turning his head to look at him. Gao Zhang returned the look with a smile and led the three members of the Liao envoy dressed as Song people to go straight up the stairs.
However, Zhao Yaban and others were still standing not far away and watching with cold eyes.
Zhou Bangyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said to Li Bangyan in front of him.
"The Number One Scholar invited friends over for a banquet and asked me to accompany him..."
In an instant, Li Bangyan and the two imperial students beside him also brightened up.
One of them even called out in a low voice, "The Number One Scholar, is that the kid just now?"
"Don't be rude," Li Bangyan glared at his companions and quickly saluted Zhou Bangyan.
"Please don't be surprised, layman. I and other imperial students have heard about Gao Zhang, the child prodigy and the number one scholar, for a long time, but have never met him. I didn't expect to meet him here by chance today."
Zhou Bangyan was very satisfied with this young man named Li Bangyan, who was smart, good at dealing with people, and spoke nicely.
Thinking that Xiao Feng had already hinted to him before that he would continue to go to the Happy House to have fun after finishing the meal, he whispered to Li Bangyan.
"Brother Shimei, I will go up first. If we have time, we can chat later."

Li Bangyan did not hesitate to say hello to the two companions behind him, and then quickly climbed up the stairs until he saw Zhou Bangyan walking into one of the private rooms.
Then he slowed down his steps, waited for his companions to arrive, and then led two of his best Taixue classmates to a private room not far away.
Of course, he never expected that there would be such a coincidence that he would meet the world-famous prodigy, Gao Zhang, here.
There are countless rumors about this child prodigy champion. The key point is that this eleven-year-old child is actually the favorite and popular person around the emperor.
At only eleven years old, he was repeatedly entrusted with important tasks by the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. This made Li Bangyan, who considered himself first-rate in talent and versatile, very dissatisfied.
I am already in my early twenties, I am very good at dealing with people, and I am eloquent. The important thing is that I know how to win people's hearts.
It's a pity that the people I was able to interact with in the past were all at a low-end level, either bachelor's degree candidates who took the imperial examination, or low-level officials who had just won the Jinshi.
I finally spent a lot of money to find a way to become a Taipei student, but I found that it still didn't work.
Li Bangyan, who had been wandering around Taixue for more than a year, couldn't find a suitable path, so he took a chance.
Today, I met the Zhou family who were chatting happily in the Happy Building. I didn't expect that Gao Zhang, a celebrity around the official, was also here.
This couldn't help but make Li Bangyan's heart beat. He was obviously still a child whose childishness had not yet faded away, and he probably hadn't even shed all his fetal hair yet.
With his brains and social skills, can't he still coax a child?
As long as I can manage to marry this child and make him happy, I just need him to mention my name to the official family.
Then, relying on my ability to kill snakes and follow the stick, maybe the opportunity for me, Li Bangyan, to prosper is right in front of me. Today, it depends on whether I can seize it.
Li Bangyan showed a confident and calm smile and walked into the private room with the two friends who were both Tai students.
After Gao Zhang, Xiao Fengxian and others had already sat down in the private room, the dishes were almost ordered.
Only then did Zhou Bangyan step into the private room, but Gao Zhang didn't say anything. After all, Zhou Bangyan was a representative poet of the Song Dynasty.
I know a lot of poets and poets, so when I go out to do business, I often meet acquaintances, not many young people with celebrity faces.
This made Gao Zhang couldn't help but recall those old movies he once enjoyed. He is indeed a person who understands nostalgia and the romance of literary youth.
The three Liao people ate very happily. Even Zhou Bangyan ate happily, but he didn't drink too much wine.
After all, Gao Zhang, the host of the treat, could not drink alcohol, and the four regular guests present at the Happy House would definitely go to the Happy Building to have fun soon. They could not go to such a place after being drunk.
Even if you go, what's the point? After all, a drunkard can't appreciate the true essence of Happy House.

Just as a few people were eating, drinking, and bragging, they suddenly heard voices coming from outside the private room.
But it was Lu Qian who stopped him in his tracks, and then Gao Zhang heard the voice of the young man he had just heard.
"I'm familiar with everyone Zhou. I just want to come and toast you. I have no other intention. Please be accommodating..."
"Why is he here?" Zhou Bangyan also glanced at the door of the private room with a look of astonishment on his face, and then turned to look at Gao Zhang.
"Brother Lu, since that friend is a friend of the Zhou family, let him come in."
Gao Zhang's voice reached the door of the elegant room, and Lu Qian, who originally looked very cold, released his big hand holding the handle of the knife and stepped aside.
Standing at the door with a pot in one hand and a cup in the other, Li Bangyan suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, nodded and bowed towards Lu Qian and Fu'an, and then walked towards the private room.
When he entered the private room, he saw Gao Zhang sitting on the main seat. This handsome young man with red lips and white teeth was looking at him curiously.
Li Bangyan immediately stepped forward, put down the wine bottle and wine glass, and saluted the prodigy champion.
"Li Bangyan, a student of Taipei University, saw the number one scholar in the imperial examination. It has been long heard that the number one scholar in the imperial examination was eleven years old. He wrote outstanding works in the provincial examination and the palace examination, and won the favor of the officials. He became the first scholar in this department in one fell swoop..."
Gao Zhang looked at the young man in front of him, who was about in his early twenties, with an expression of admiration and eyes on him, and continued to describe his great achievements in detail.
Gao Zhang couldn't help but feel a little confused. The name Li Bangyan always seemed familiar to Gao Zhang.
