Chapter 36: Welcome
In the cold winter, the weather is cold and soaking, which makes people feel cold in their hearts.
Fortunately, when Cai Yong invited friends to a banquet, the weather was exceptionally sunny. The sky was blue, and a round of red sun hung in the sky, exuding a fiery light. Wang Can had already learned that Cai Yong would invite friends and hold a feast, so early in the morning, Wang Can sorted out his clothes and rushed to Cai Yong's mansion to wait for Cai Yong's instructions.
In the living room, there were only Cai Yong and Wang Can.
Cai Yong sat on the main seat in the center of the living room, and Wang Can sat on the lower left side of Cai Yong.
Cai Yong looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "First of all, the people invited by the old man today are all the pillars of the imperial court, as well as the celebrities and Confucians in the sea, you are responsible for receiving the people who come to the banquet, but you must be cautious, and you must not go wrong." ”
Wang Can nodded cautiously and replied, "Don't worry, teacher, disciple can save it." ”
There is no need for Cai Yong to order the reception of guests, and Wang Can will also be cautious. This matter is related to Wang Can's future development, and Wang Can will naturally not be sloppy. After a pause, Wang Can looked at Cai Yong and asked, "Teacher, the people who came to Cai's Mansion today are all celebrities and Confucians, I don't know who the specific ones are, what are the personalities of these people?" I also asked the teacher to explain one or two things to the disciples, so that the disciples would know what to know and not panic. ”
Cai Yong saw that Wang Can took the initiative to ask, and felt a sense of comfort in his heart, and said, "The old man will give you a detailed explanation, so as not to make mistakes." Although the old man has had a rough life, he has never held an important position in the imperial court, but fortunately, the old man still has some close friends, these people all hold important positions in the imperial court, and they have never despised me because of the old man's humble position. ”
"Situ Wang Yun, the word teacher; This person has an upright temperament and is loyal to the country, and he is the pillar of the Han Dynasty. ”
"Taiwei Yang Biao, the word first; After the great Confucian Yang Zhen, the son of Situ Yang Ci, he was jealous and hateful, and when he was Jing Zhaoyin, he executed the then eunuch Wang Fu. ”
"Guanglu Doctor Ma Riyan, the word Uncle Weng; The grandson of the great Confucian Ma Rong clan, inheriting Ma Rong's knowledge, is first-class in the world. ”
"Former Shangshu Lu Zhi, the word is dry; Studied under Ma Rong, was resolute and decisive, learned to be a Confucian, a model of the world, and a pillar of the country, and was a first-class Confucian in the world, but he was dismissed by Dong Zhuo because he angered Dong Zhuo. ”
…………
Cai Yong came to visit the Confucian celebrities and court officials one by one, and instructed Wang Can how to deal with it, and only after saying that, he waved his hand and said: "First, the time is almost up, the guests who come to visit are almost here, you go to the door to greet the guests instead of the teacher, and show your face in front of them." ”
"Yes, the disciple knows."
Wang Can bowed to Cai Yong and respectfully exited the living room.
Wang Can is really grateful to Cai Yong in his heart, although this old man is for Cai Yan's future, but Cai Yan entrusted Wang Can to take care of it, it is not cheap for Wang Can, even if Cai Yong asked Wang Can to swear not to interfere in Cai Yan's marriage, but after getting along for a long time, maybe the teacher will become a father-in-law by then.
In the final analysis, Cai Yong helped Cai Yan and also helped Wang Can.
At the gate of Cai's Mansion, Wang Can smiled and looked calm, glanced at the housekeeper of Cai's Mansion standing next to him, and smiled slightly.
At this time, Wang Can was wearing a white robe, with sword eyebrows and bright eyes, calm and generous, and his demeanor showed everyone's demeanor, and he was the image of a handsome son.
Wang Can looked straight ahead, only to see a carriage coming slowly.
It's close!
It's getting closer!
The carriage stopped at a distance of one foot from the gate of Cai's mansion, and the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a fifty-year-old man wearing a soap-colored robe, a white face, long hair, and a long crown on his head slowly came out of the carriage.
"Childe, this is Wang Situ." The housekeeper standing next to Wang Can reminded in a whisper.
Wang Can nodded lightly, without waiting for Wang Yun to get off the carriage, Wang Can had already walked to the side of the carriage and stood aside respectfully, and after Wang Yun got off the carriage, Wang Can bowed to Wang Yun again, and said with the courtesy of a disciple: "Disciple Wang Can, meet Mr!" ”
Sir, on the surface, it means that someone was born earlier than oneself and is older than oneself.
But in ancient times, Mr. was a kind of honorific title for a learned and famous person.
Wang Yun is a great Confucian at home and a friend of Cai Yong. Wang Can worships Cai Yong as a teacher and meets Wang Yun as a disciple, which can be said to complement each other without any mistakes.
Wang Can's eyes swept over Wang Can, and he smiled without saying a word: "Not bad!" ”
After finishing speaking, Wang Yun went straight into Cai's mansion.
Wang Can stood beside the carriage and was stunned, he didn't expect Wang Yun to speak so simply, and after saying a word, he left in style. Wang Can shook his head in his heart, still smiling on his face. Looking at Wang Yun's disappearing back, Wang Can returned to the gate and continued to wait for the next wave of guests to arrive.
After Wang Yun entered Cai's mansion with his attendants, the housekeeper said: "Childe, Wang Situ has always been stingy in evaluating others, and ordinary people are 'good', 'poor', 'mediocre' and so on, and you can get the word 'good', which is already quite good." ”
Wang Can smiled and did not speak.
He was not dissatisfied with Wang Yun's evaluation, but felt that Wang Yun was too crisp.
In a word, two words, it's really short and to the point.
Just when Wang Can was stunned, another carriage slowly came towards Cai's mansion. The carriage also stopped at a distance of one zhang from Cai's house, and the curtain of the carriage was opened, only to see an old man wearing a azure robe, with white hair and beard, and a wrinkled face, walking down.
"This is Taiwei Yang Biao!"
Wang Can nodded, and then without waiting for Yang Biao, who had just gotten out of the carriage, to take a step, he had already walked quickly in front of Yang Biao, still bowing as a disciple: "Disciple Wang Can, meet Mr." ”
Yang Biao stretched out his hand to help Wang Can up, and said with a smile: "Yes, the young man is talented, his appearance is extraordinary, and he has accepted a good disciple." ”
"Mr. praised, Wang Can didn't dare to take it." Wang Can's expression was neither humble nor arrogant, and he said humbly.
"Haha......" Yang Biao laughed loudly, flicked his sleeves, and strode into Cai's Mansion, after Wang Can welcomed Yang Biao into Cai's Mansion, he stood at the gate of Cai's Mansion and continued to greet guests.
After a while, in front of Cai's mansion, two carriages came in parallel.
Like the previous carriages, both carriages stopped at a distance of one zhang from Cai's house.
However, it is not known whether the driver deliberately stopped the carriage at the same time, and then the curtains of the two carriages were lifted at the same time, and the people in the carriage walked out at the same time. The old man who came out of the carriage on the left had gray hair, a cold face, and a murderous aura between his eyebrows; The old man who walked out of the carriage on the right was about forty years old, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, a beautiful beard under his chin, reaching out to stroke his long beard, with a thick smile in his eyes.
The housekeeper whispered beside Wang Can: "On the left is Lu Zhi, and on the right is Ma Riyan." ”
Wang Can was stunned in his heart, watching the two Taidou-level figures get out of the carriage at the same time, and his eyelids jumped unconsciously.
Lu Zhi and Ma Riyan are both friends of Cai Yong, and when both of them get off the carriage at the same time, Wang Can must go forward to meet the two, but who to meet first has become a problem, because it involves a matter of face. No matter which side Wang Can neglected, it would be a huge loss for Wang Can, Wang Can kept thinking about how to deal with it in his mind, and saw Lu Zhi on the left slowly getting off the carriage, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his heart.
Wang Can strode towards Lu Zhi, and when he walked in front of Lu Zhi, he respectfully bowed: "Disciple Wang Can, meet Mr." ”
After meeting Lu Zhi, Wang Can walked up to Ma Riyan again and respectfully bowed: "Disciple Wang Can, meet Mr." ”
Wang Can stood in front of Ma Riyan with his waist bowed respectfully, Ma Riyan glanced at Lu Zhi, a hint of banter flashed in his eyes, and asked: "Wang Can, the carriage of the old man and Zigan arrived at Caifu at the same time, and the old man and Zigan got off the carriage at the same time, why did you go to see Zigan first, and then meet the old man, don't you despise the old man?" ”
Wang Can sighed secretly in his heart, these two old guys really have a conspiracy.
