Chapter 140: The Magi Who Shocked Their Jaws
Guan Ning and the four of them came together, and when they arrived at the door, they saw their friends coming together, Guan Ning nodded, and thought in his heart, it seems that Huaxin's trip to Beihai is false, and the search is true. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Everyone was about to enter the door, and a person suddenly came out of the house, wearing silver-white armor, wearing a crown hat, slender figure, handsome appearance, good demeanor of a child of a family, full of momentum between gestures, worthy of being a long-time battle formation, the four of them saw this person, and thought of a person in their minds at the same time: Su Chen, the general of Beizhonglang.
"Ben Hou is still this morning, why the magpies on the branches are chirping non-stop, I didn't expect that there are wise men coming to the door, which really makes Ben Hou happy."
Su Chen took the lead, and the four of them were flattered, and saluted gratefully: "Guan Ning (Bing Yuan, Sun Wei, Wang Xu) has seen General Su!" ”
"Everyone, please excuse me!" Su Chen gave a hand, and after a few people got up, he immediately said: "The great name of the four wise men Benhou has been like thunder, it is the honor of Benhou to meet today, the mansion has prepared thin wine, the four wise men, please sit down with Benhou!" ”
"General, please!"
politely led the four of them to the hall, all of them were generals under Su Chen, and the generals sitting on the right were all military generals, with Xu Huang as the respect, followed by Ju Yi, then Zhang Fei, and then the six strong generals and Zhang Liao. The person on the left is Hua Xin, followed by Tao Qiuhong, Su Chen led the four of them behind Tao Qiuhong, and sat down in turn, before he slowly walked to the top.
Lu County was messed up by Guan Hai, and even if the singers and maids in the palace were not taken away by King Kang, they were also ruined by Guan Hai, so there were no women left, and there were no singers and dancers in a hurry, so Su Chen could only think differently.
After a while, the wine and food came up, the wine is naturally the best Wuyuan immortal brew, and the dish is cooked meat, although the taste is average, but in this era of war and chaos, it is also very precious, there is a saying that is good, meat eaters seek it, and it is the life of a superior person who can eat meat.
Su Chen raised his glass first and said: "The reputation of You'an and others, Ben Hou has long admired it, but he didn't have the opportunity to see it, today is the right time for his meeting, fortunately, Ben Hou did it first as a respect." ”
"The general praised it!" Guan Ning and the four of them said in unison, and then they all dried up the wine in their cups.
Su Chen's compliments to the four people, all the generals knew it, and knew that the lord intended to recruit these four people, so they also politely toasted to them.
The atmosphere on the field was very friendly, everyone laughed and talked very happily, then Zhang Liao suddenly got up and said: "Lord, there is no singing and dancing in the banquet, it is very disappointing, why don't you have a sword dance for the generals by your subordinates?" ”
"Does Wen Yuan still have such skills? Hurry up. After that, he looked at Guan Ning and the others again, and said, "If your sword dance can be praised by the four gentlemen, Benhou will definitely reward you." ”
"Subordinates take orders!"
After a while, Zhang Liao changed into a loose white samurai uniform, held a long sword, saluted the guests present, and then slowly danced.
Zhang Liao's swordsmanship is taught by him personally, which is based on Wang Yue's lifelong swordsmanship experience, coupled with his perception of Taiji Sword.
Su Chen glanced at Zhu Gongdao behind him, and Zhu Gongdao immediately stepped forward: "Wen Yuan, it's too boring to dance the sword alone, why don't I play with you." ”
"I wish the commander is willing to teach, Liao is honored."
The weapons used by the two are all swords, and Zhu Gongdao is to cooperate with Zhang Liao, not to steal his limelight, so the sword did not use true qi, even so, the action of the two fighting is also wonderful.
At the same time as the two of them were dancing with swords, Su Chen also introduced to the four of them: "Gentlemen, Wen Yuan has worshiped Jiayue as his teacher since he was a child, and he has been personally passed on by his family teacher Wang Yue's swordsmanship, and now he is the general of Huwei who is enshrined by the imperial court, and now it is not yet the year of crowning, what do several gentlemen think of this son?" ”
"It's really a hero out of a young man, the generals are full of tigers, and the yellow scarves are just around the corner, which is really the luck of the court and the people." It was Wang Yu who spoke, he was an authentic Beihai person, although Su Chen expelled Guan Hai from the city, but after some raiding by the Yellow Turban thieves, now Beihai has long since lost its former prosperity, and he deeply feels the importance of the imperial court's armament.
"Mr. Shuzhi praised it falsely, Benhou just did his duty as a minister." Speaking of this, he turned to say: "Since Ben Hou fought against Xianbei, every step has been very difficult, if it is not for the assistance of your colleagues and the soldiers' lives, how can you protect the people of a county from foreign invasion?" ”
"It's just that, despite this, I also feel powerless, for fear of taking a wrong step, especially the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the people are displaced, Ben Hou sees it in his eyes, hurts in his heart, and often thinks about it, I can't sleep, as the so-called one person is short, two people are long, if you can get a virtuous person day and night, it is really the luck of Ben Hou, but also the luck of the court, the luck of the people."
As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, Zhang Liao and Zhu Gongdao also pulled a sword flower, stopped their movements, and he got up first and clapped his hands and praised: "Wen Yuan's swordsmanship has entered the hall, and he has a meritorious sword dance today, and he will give Wen Yuan a set of military books, and ten gold medals for justice." ”
"Thank you, my lord!" The two responded in unison.
Before the two could retreat, soldiers came in with two plates, one of which had ten horseshoe gold on it, and the other with five snow-white books.
Zhang Liao impatiently picked up the books on the plate and swept the cover, which was exactly the five military books he had been thinking about for a long time, Sun Tzu's Art of War, Sima Fa, Liutao, Sanluo, and Wei Xuanzi.
These five military books were collected by Su Chen at a great cost, especially the three strategies, which he asked Wang Yue to copy in the palace, the full name of these three strategies is Huangshi Gong Sanluo, which belongs to the Taoist military book, and Huangshi Gong once taught it to Zhang Liang, so there are rare books in the palace.
Even if Wang Yue is Liu Bian's teacher, it is not easy to copy this three strategies, and it still took a lot of money to get through the relationship between the eunuchs and succeed.
Seeing that Zhang Liao got a full set of military books, Hua Xin quipped: "Wenyuan, I am willing to give a thousand gold, can I exchange one or two with me?" ”
Hearing this, Zhang Liao smiled and refused politely: "The military advisor still doesn't want to take away people's favors, don't talk about a thousand gold, even if it is ten thousand gold, Liao will not give this treasure, this is Liao's heirloom in the future, and it will be passed down from generation to generation." ”
As soon as these words came out, Guan Ning and the four of them were very curious, they didn't know what kind of books could be exchanged for a thousand dollars, and finally Guan Ning couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked, "General Su, can you let me take a look at the books in General Zhang's hand?" ”
"Then you have to ask Wen Yuan." Su Chen immediately pushed the ball to Zhang Liao, this set of books was only recently delivered to him, several generals wanted to borrow it, but he didn't approve it, and today the reward was Zhang Liao, in addition to highlighting his merits, it was also to make a show.
"General Zhang, I wonder if you can let me see the book in your hand?"
"Mr. has an order, Wen Yuan should obey it." With that, he respectfully came to Guan Ning with a plate.
Guan Ning was immediately shocked when he saw that the paper was so snow-white, and as a book lover, he couldn't wait to pick up a book on his face and flip through it.
Qingxiu's handwriting was neat, it didn't seem like a handwritten record, and he didn't pursue it, but carefully stroked each page of paper, as if he was stroking a lover, maybe even stroking a lover was not so gentle.
The other three were also attracted by his movements, and then regardless of etiquette, they stood up, picked up a book from the plate in Zhang Liao's hand in turn, and flipped through it.
"Why is the handwriting the same in every book? Even if it's the same person's handwriting, it's impossible to write every word the same, what's going on? ”
It was Sun Wei who asked this question, worthy of being the first prime minister appointed by Sun Quan as emperor, even if he was shocked, he still retained enough reason to analyze the problem.
Hearing this question, the other three also realized it, and they all turned their eyes to Su Chen, and Su Chen did not hide it, and immediately explained: "Gentlemen, don't hide it, this is the snowflake paper produced by the Su family's workshop, the texture is tough and soft, and it is very suitable for writing, as for the font on the book, it is Jiayue's flying white body, not handwritten, but printed, so the handwriting in each book is the same." ”
Snowflake paper? Printing?
These two words touched the nerves of the four people, especially Guan Ning, who couldn't help but ask: "General, have such books ever been popularized in the world?" ”
"I can't do it!" Su Chen gagged his mouth with four words, and at the same time said seductively: "Snowflake paper is only sold in the Wuyuan shops in Luoyang, and the price is very high, as for the printed books, except for the scholars of Taihang Academy who can borrow them, they are not popularized in other places, and the cost is too high to popularize the world." ”
"I see!" Su Chen's saying this is very much in line with their expectations, if it can really popularize the world, this cake is enough to make too many people take risks, and it is a good thing to regard it as a luxury among nobles at the moment.
This is also Su Chen's consideration, although the printing technique is successful, but to make cheap paper, it is really not good, can only be printed with snowflake paper, the price of this kind of book is two or three times that of paper, not too high, but compared to ordinary people, it is indeed a luxury.
Hearing that the scholars of Taihang Academy could borrow books, Guan Ning finally understood the other party's plan, but even so, he was very yearning.
Seeing the desire in the eyes of several people, Su Chen took the opportunity to say: "Several gentlemen are all great talents, the world is uneven at the moment, and the people are suffering. ”
Sun Wei and Bing Yuan had already agreed to Hua Xin's request, and immediately replied: "I don't dare to ask for ears, Sun Wei (Bing Yuan) visited the lord." ”
Seeing the two of them bowing their heads, Su Chen was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward to help the two of them up, and then looked at Guan Ning and Wang Yu who were standing awkwardly.
