Chapter Twenty-Four: The Legend of the Three Cups of Grass

When Ning Ze found Pei Min, Pei Min was chatting with He Zhizhang about some trivial matters in the court.

He Zhizhang is now a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites is used for the five rites of auspiciousness, Jia, military, guest, and fierce; Manage the affairs of the national schools, the imperial examinations, and the affairs of the vassal and foreign countries.

He Zhizhang is mainly responsible for the imperial examination and Chinese studies.

Pei Min happened to have a place to ask He Zhizhang for help at this time.

He planned to build a large library in Guzang, Liangzhou, which was remote and excellent books and articles were scarce.

Most of the books circulating in the market are too old to keep up with the times.

Culture is such a thing, innovation is more important than antiquity.

In this era when there are no telephones and computers, the existence of libraries is necessary.

The Tang Dynasty was an era that attached great importance to culture, from the Hongwen Museum in the Li Shimin period, to the current Zhaowen Museum, Jixian Academy, and History Museum, there were special personnel responsible for inspecting, repairing, and compiling various books.

It is recorded in the history books that the book collection was flourishing in Kaiyuan, and its author was 53,915 volumes, and the scholars of the Tang Dynasty wrote their own books, and 28,469 volumes. Woohoo, it can be described as a grand event!

It's just a little bad, as a national collection, the books in the Zhaowen Museum, Jixian Academy, and History Museum are not allowed to be entered by ordinary people.

Only people of a certain status, or bachelors from various academies and museums, can enter and leave it.

The significance of collecting books is not only to protect the flame of culture, but also to spread this fire, and to ignite the fire of Chinese culture everywhere in the world.

A large library that allows the world to come and go is necessary.

Books are the key to a library.

He Zhizhang has the power to do so.

Regarding Pei Min's proposal, He Zhizhang was very interested and chatted happily.

As for Zhang Xu, he is still the same as always.

Lying in his seat, a few snoring sounds can be heard from time to time to indicate his presence.

Du Fu described Zhang Xu's "Song of the Eight Immortals in Drinking" as follows: "Zhang Xu's three cups of grass holy biography, taking off his hat and revealing his crown in front of the prince, waving the paper like a cloud of smoke".

Compared with King Ruyang's "Three Buckets Begin to Rise to the Sky", Li Shizhi's "Drinking Like a Long Whale Absorbing a Hundred Rivers", Li Bai's "One Bucket of Poems", and Jiao Sui's "Five Buckets of Fang Zhuoran......

Zhang Xu's "three cups" are really weak.

also confirms one thing, Zhang Xu is good at wine, but the amount of wine is ordinary.

Compared with Pei Min and He Zhizhang, they are the five scum of war.

In short, the three of them drank together, and it was always Zhang Xu who fell first.

However, Zhang Xu has a major feature that makes Pei Min and He Zhizhang admire him.

Zhang Xu got drunk fast and went fast.

He's like a meerkat.

Meerkats like to eat king cobras the most, and generally speaking, king cobras are not able to bite flexible meerkats.

However, there are exceptions, if you give a meerkat in the bite of a king cobra, no matter how much snake venom the king snake injects into the meerkat body, the meerkat can take a nap at most, and nothing will happen.

Zhang Xu is the same, his body seems to have the anti-venom function of a meerkat, and he takes a nap when he is drunk. Then wake up, like no one, and continue drinking.

What kind of post-hangover reaction, Zhang Xu can't see the slightest bit.

If the banquet is longer, Zhang Xu can get drunk several times in a banquet......

This kind of ability, even Pei Min and He Zhizhang have to accept it.

"Guogong, Gao Nei sent someone to say that Your Majesty is angry, so you have to go to the palace no matter what......"

Ning Ze spoke with a suspicious chill, his face was pale, and beads of sweat kept falling.

As a steward in Pei's Mansion, Ning Ze can be regarded as having seen a lot of the world.

But Li Longji's weight is too heavy, and the emperor is angry, who can stand it?

Pei Min was a little inexplicable, and he didn't know what the situation was.

He Zhizhang hurriedly said cautiously: "Jingyuan should enter the palace quickly, Gao Neishou can best understand His Majesty's thoughts, and he kindly reminded him that he must not go." ”

"It's good!" Pei Min also knew the priorities and said, "In this way, my brother will go to the palace to investigate." I haven't drunk it today, but I will come to my house tomorrow and continue to drink. Make amends to the two old brothers......" He glanced at Zhang Xu, who had already fallen asleep, smiled, and didn't bother him to sober up.

Out of He Zhizhang's Mansion, Pei Min rode on Simba and went straight to the palace.

Just half an hour after Pei Min left, Zhang Xu woke up staggeringly, looked at the wine in front of him, his hazy eyes suddenly lit up, and said, "Drink, continue to drink......"

……

Colliers can have today's status, and he can do things, and he can do things inseparably.

Pei Min was led by Gao Lishi's arranger all the way, and he was unimpeded in the palace until he saw Gao Lishi outside the Wude Palace.

"Gao Weng!"

It was the first time that Pei Min called Colliers like this.

Like history, Colliers has been by Li Longji's side for ten years.

With Li Longji's excessive trust in his own people, Gao Lishi's status is also the same as Pei Min's, and the tide is rising.

Pei Min is the weight, holding the envoys of the two towns, 140,000 elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, and Gao Lishi is mighty.

Song Jing and Zhang said that prime ministers like this kind of prime minister must be respectful to Gao Lishi, and some Shangshu assassins and the like are like slaves in front of Gao Lishi.

The crown prince Li Ying also treated Gao Lishi with the etiquette of a brother, and the other princesses and princes called him Gao Weng, and the likes of the concubine were even more Gao Ye......

Colliers is the only one who can replace Li Longji's idea......

Pei Min had a good relationship with Gao Lishi, so he called "Gao Weng" with a bit of half-truth.

Gao Lishi hurriedly said: "Guogong is a certain torment, how can you be the same as those laymen." Where can you afford to be called a national prince, or call it 'inner servant' as before, it sounds kind. ”

Seeing Gao Lishi's sincerity, Pei Min said: "Gao Neishi, what is the situation now?" ”

Gao Lishi explained the situation in detail and said: "What the Duke of the Kingdom has done is really wrong, Your Majesty has been reading the Lord of the Kingdom all these days when it will come, how many times a day." No, as soon as I got the news that you came to Chang'an, I immediately ordered the Shang Food Bureau to prepare wine and food, and specially ordered to make some of your favorite food. Your Majesty thinks so of you. But what a great blessing, how can you not enter the palace for the first time when you arrive in Chang'an? Knowing that you have gone elsewhere, Your Majesty is disappointed in the bottom of my heart. ”

He glanced around vigilantly and said, "Your Majesty's feelings are the most delicate, and they are easily affected by this aspect. Don't look at this as a small thing, a careless, but it will be a big thing. Anyway, Your Majesty is angry, remember to coax it later......"

Pei Min listened to the cause and effect, and was a little speechless, how old is Li Longji, angry about this matter, child?

Thinking so in my heart, but I don't dare to be careless, the richer the feelings, the easier it is to drill the horns.

It is true that he has paid a lot to achieve today, but without the heavy support of Li Longji, the emperor, he would not have been so smooth.

He didn't want to change from a son of the court to a wild child without a mother because of this little thing.

He cautiously waved at Gao Lishi and said, "Xie Gao's inner servant pointed out, Pei Min will not dare to forget this situation." Please also inform us of the ......"
