Hearing Lu Xiaoxian say that he just wanted to walk around and have fun, Zhang Shuo couldn't help but snort coldly: "Most people with no ambitions are greedy for enjoyment, which is understandable!" ”

"Master Zhang, you are wrong again!" Lu Xiaoxian was not angry at all at Zhang Shuo's ridicule, he seemed to be saying something that had nothing to do with him, "The ancients said, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books." Life is full of learning, and play is no exception. On the surface, I was having fun, but in fact I was also doing learning, and the effect was far stronger than reading a book! ”

Zhang Shuo scoffed at Lu Xiaoxian's fallacies, but Shangguan Wan'er was very interested, and humbly asked: "It's the first time I've heard that fun is also learning, can Lu Gongzi tell me in detail, let me also have a long insight!" ”

"Absolutely!" Lu Xiaoxian tilted his head and asked, "Shangguan Shanggong, do you know how lime is made?" ”

"Huh?" Shangguan Wan'er was stunned, a little unable to keep up with Lu Xiaoxian's thinking, she didn't know why Lu Xiaoxian asked this question, so she could only shake her head honestly.

Although Shangguan Wan'er is known as the "Prime Minister of Women", she is in the palace all the year round, how can she know how lime is made.

Lu Xiaoxian looked at Zhang again and said, "Does Lord Zhang know?" ”

Zhang said that he also didn't know how lime was made, but he didn't bother to answer Lu Xiaoxian, just snorted, and then turned his head to the side to look at Lu Xiaoxian anymore.

Lu Xiaoxian turned a blind eye to Zhang Shuo's increasingly dark face, and said to himself: "Speaking of which, this is also the knowledge gained through play." A few days ago, I went to Luoyang to play outside the city, and happened to pass by a lime kiln, and saw the masters calcining in lime. I saw piles of blue-black rocks, all of which turned into white lime after being burned by the raging fire. Deeply touched, I made a poem called "Lime Yin", and I will recite this poem to you! ”

After that, Lu Xiaoxian pretended to clear his throat and chanted loudly: "Thousands of hammers have been chiseled out of the deep mountains, and the fire is burning as if you are idle." Don't be afraid of broken bones, you have to leave your innocence in the world. ”

"Good poetry?" Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but admire.

"Lime Yin" is a seven-character quatrain created by Yu Qian in the Ming Dynasty, this poem supports the words and aspirations, adopts symbolic techniques, literally sings lime, actually borrows things to metaphor people, supports things to send nostalgia, and expresses the poet's ideals.

Zhang said that he was a master of poetry, how could he not hear the subtlety of this poem. Although he still felt unhappy in his heart, Lu Xiaoxian's poem couldn't help but make him admire, at least he didn't dare to despise Lu Xiaoxian in his heart.

Lu Xiaoxian then said: "After talking about playing and making poems, I'll talk about drinking and making poems." A few days ago, Brother Yang and I were drinking, and I made another poem with joy, and I will sing it to you together! Can? ”

Shangguan Wan'er has always liked poetry, and after listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words, she couldn't help clapping her hands and said, "Okay, okay!" We're listening! ”

"You don't see the water of the Yellow River coming up from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning. You don't see the sad white hair of Gao Tang Mingjing, and the morning is like green silk turning into snow at dusk. Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon. I am born to be useful, and my daughter will come back when I am gone. Cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle for pleasure will require 300 cups of drink. Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, will enter the wine, don't stop the cup, and sing a song with you, please listen to it for me. Bells and drums are so expensive, I hope that I will not wake up after being drunk, the ancient sages are lonely, and only the drinker will leave his name. In the past, King Chen feasted peacefully, and fought wine for ten thousand years. What is the owner's words, he has to sell the right gentleman. Five flowers

Horses, daughters, and Hu'er will exchange for fine wine, and sell eternal sorrow with you. ”

Lu Xiaoxian groaned, only to be stunned Shangguan Wan'er, and Zhang Shuo was also shocked and had nothing to say.

No matter how high the poetry talents of Shangguan Wan'er and Zhang Shuo are, they are not as high as Li Bai, who was praised as a "poet immortal" by later generations. At least this song "Will Enter the Wine" is something they can't make anyway.

At this moment, as far as his eyes could see, Lu Xiaoxian overlooked the main hall, and a Taoist priest was scooping water from the tank with a scoop.

Lu Xiaoxian rolled his eyes, pointed to the back of the hall and said to Zhang with a smile: "Lord Zhang, do you see the scoop in the hand of that Taoist priest?" Let's take this scoop as the theme and make a poem each, how about it? ”

Lu Xiaoxian was clearly telling Zhang about the war book, Zhang said how could he not fight, he said without hesitation: "Okay, just make a poem with this topic, let's limit it to a pillar of incense!" ”

After that, he no longer paid attention to Lu Xiaoxian, lowered his head and began to think about it.

Looking at this work, Lu Xiaoxian said to Shangguan Wan'er: "Shangguan Shanggong, I will talk to Qin Jun on the side, and after Lord Zhang is ready, you can call me!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er said strangely: "Master Lu, don't you have to think about it?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian's tone was flat, as if what he was saying was an ordinary thing: "Isn't it just a poem, it's just like that if you don't conceive it!" ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

Zhang said that he thought that Lu Xiaoxian was making fun of himself, so he couldn't help but feel a little angry, raised his head and was about to ridicule him, but Lu Xiaoxian had already pulled Qin Jun aside.

Shangguan Wan'er felt amused on the side, and burst out laughing.

"Qin Jun, have you been doing well in the palace these days?" Lu Xiaoxian asked in a low voice.

Qin Jun stared at Lu Xiaoxian, first nodded, and then shook his head.

In the blink of an eye, it has been more than two years since Qin Jun entered the palace.

Before entering the palace, Qin Jun was full of ambition, he felt that with his diligence and cleverness, he would definitely be in the palace soon.

But after actually entering the palace, he realized that things were far more complicated than he imagined.

There are many rules in the palace, and the hierarchy is strict, and if you are not careful, you will break the rules, and the better ones will be punished by the rod, and even the small life will not be guaranteed if it is serious. A young eunuch like Qin Jun couldn't do anything but work carefully.

At this moment, listening to Lu Xiaoxian's question, Qin Jun just nodded habitually, and after nodding, he felt that it was inappropriate, so he shook his head again.

"Do you know why I begged Shangguan Shang to transfer you to the East Palace?" Lu Xiaoxian looked directly at Qin Jun, as if he wanted to see his heart.

"I know Childe is for my good! I'm afraid I'll be bullied there! Qin Jun lowered his head and pursed his lips, his expression a little gloomy, "I know that I don't do well enough to satisfy my son, but I will work hard!" ”

Hearing Qin Jun say this, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't say what he thought about for a while.

Qin Jun's temperament, Lu Xiaoxian knows. Back then, he voluntarily entered the palace in order to make a appearance in the palace.

Lu Xiaoxian could imagine that Qin Jun must have made more efforts than ordinary people in the palace. However, giving does not equal return. Giving is genuinely voluntary, but giving back is undemanding. To pay for the same return, of course, it will be very tiring.

After a moment of silence, Lu Xiaoxian pondered his words, for fear of touching Qin Jun's fragile self-esteem: "Qin Jun."

I know you've worked hard, but you must remember that you don't put in the effort to please others, but to satisfy yourself. I just want to remind you that if you want to achieve your ultimate goal, you have to do three things in addition to hard work! ”

Qin Jun raised his head, his eyes flashing with the light of expectation: "Which three points?" ”

"First of all, you have to live!" Lu Xiaoxian looked at Luoyang City with his hand, it seemed that the imperial city inside the Duanmen was in front of him, and he said in a serious tone, "The palace is very complicated, and it is really not safe for you to stay there." If you stand on the wrong team, you will die, if you don't stand in the wrong line, you will die, and sometimes even if you don't stand on the wrong team, you may die! If even the life is gone, what else can we talk about? ”

Although Qin Jun didn't fully understand Lu Xiaoxian's words, the worry in Lu Xiaoxian's tone was unmistakable, and he asked cautiously: "Gongzi asked me to go to the East Palace, just to save my life!" ”

Lu Xiao turned his head suddenly, with a shallow smile on his face: "Do you remember the first time we met?" ”

Qin Jun's thoughts couldn't keep up with Lu Xiaoxian, and he nodded stupidly: "Of course I remember!" ”

"At that time, we each played our own eyes, even if we were played by each other, we just laughed it off! But the palace is different, sometimes the heart-warming eyes will kill people! Lu Xiaoxian smiled and said solemnly, "You go to the East Palace, although you are more lonely and lonely, but you are rarely remembered for doing errands there, and it is easier to live!" More importantly, the second point I said, there is a great opportunity waiting for you there! ”

"A big opportunity? What chances? Qin Jun opened his mouth wide and looked at Lu Xiaoxian in a daze.

Although Qin Jun was just a humble eunuch, after all, the palace was the center of the Great Zhou, and many things had been heard. The imperial heir Li Dan lives in the East Palace, and his weight in the eyes of His Majesty is too far behind that of King Wei and King Liang! When I arrived at the East Palace, how could I have a big chance?

"Remember my words today, after you arrive at the East Palace, you must have no distractions and serve the emperor's heir wholeheartedly, as long as you can endure your temperament, the opportunity will definitely come!" Lu Xiaoxian paused and said something like a proverb, "If a person wants to succeed, the third point is very important and crucial, that is, when the opportunity comes, you must seize it!" Go in peace, I'm optimistic about you! ”

Qin Jun was a little dazed, and was about to ask, but he heard Shangguan Wan'er's voice coming from there: "Master Lu, Master Zhang is ready, you can come over!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian responded with a smile, patted Qin Jun on the shoulder, and walked towards Shangguan Wan'er and Zhang Shuo.

Looking at Lu Xiaoxian's back, Qin Jun's heart felt like a dense net was woven, and it was very chaotic.

Lu Xiaoxian showed a shyly smile on his face, looked at Zhang Shuo, and said casually: "Lord Zhang, are you coming first or me coming first?" ”

Without waiting for Zhang Shuo to answer, Shangguan Wan'er, as a judge, directly determined that Lu Xiaoxian would chant poetry first, and Zhang would chant later.

Zhang Shuo looked at Lu Xiaoxian indifferently and did not speak, anyone could see that Zhang Shuo had four big words written on his face: confident.

"The name of my poem is 'Song of the Scoop'! I'll be the first to groan! Lu Xiaoxian had a faint smile in his eyes, as if he was a child's prank, "The wine is hanging on the scoop, and it is really pure and good." The snail chamber rolls its head, and the crane's neck draws a long handle. Elegant pigment and yellow, humble and light. There is no carver, this is your nature. ”
