(On Saturday and Sunday, the bottle drifted away with his colleagues.) Drifting in the same boat with my sister paper in the summer, everyone knows it...... Monday bottles were really unrefreshed. Let's strive for three watches every day this week. Originally, I wanted to have more yards and one more today, but after the three yards, my head was really dizzy. But rest assured, the bottle has been working hard to write. ）

The ministers had already dispersed, and Lu Ren and Emperor Liu Xie were seated opposite each other in the pavilion. If there is wine in the courtyard, just bring a jar over; There are dry food prepared yesterday in the bag, and a few things that are okay can be considered snacks. By the way, the eunuch who served Lu Ren and Emperor Liu Xie with wine was patting the mud open, and the aroma of the wine wafted out, and the eunuch's throat was constantly squirming

This is Lu Ren's mansion, but it is not as good as the utensils in the palace, and the wine cup is just an ordinary bamboo cup. However, Emperor Liu Xie didn't care about this, after all, he had also lived a life like a beggar for a while. After raising the wine and Lu Ren exchanged greetings, he drank the wine as soon as he drank it, and Emperor Liu Xie smiled and said: "What a mellow wine!" Unexpectedly, Lu Qing's wine was also so outstanding. ”

Lu Ren smiled: "It's okay." However, Your Majesty, you no longer have an official position, and you should not be able to use the title of Qing, so Your Majesty still calls your subordinates by their names. ”

Emperor Liu Xie shook his head: "Lu Qing, why do you have to do this?" In fact, what is the sin you have committed compared to the disobedient people I have met? Sometimes I feel depressed when I think about it, and even though I am angry at those traitorous ministers, I have to show my closeness; But for a loyal person like you, I really want to be closer, but you think it is impossible. Is I really the Lord of Meanness? ”

"Your Majesty is serious!" Lu Ren hurriedly responded, and said in his heart that you are really not a mediocre emperor, but you were born at the wrong time.

Emperor Liu Xie sighed: "What are Lu Qing's plans after he leaves this time?" Don't you want to be an official again? ”

Lu Ren said to himself: "It doesn't matter to me whether I am an official or not, as long as I can live a peaceful life." If today's reinstatement was Lao Cao's mouth, maybe I would have agreed. But it was your little emperor who spoke...... Hmph, I have more than two years left, and I really don't want to get involved in the political struggle between you and Lao Cao.

"It's the spring of the third year of Jian'an, and the edict you got out was around the end of the fourth year of Jian'an, and it was discovered by Cao Cao at the beginning of the fifth year of Jian'an. If one of your tendons is on the wrong line and wants to pull me in, won't you still pit me when I leave? If you can avoid it, you can avoid it! I am neither nor do I want to be the so-called loyal servants of the feudal dynasty, we don't have that awareness. Of course, we won't be traitors, and being traitors will only be an undercover agent who penetrates the enemy. ”

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Ren said to Emperor Liu Xie: "Actually, I never thought about becoming an official in Xia, and even strictly speaking, I am not a scholar in Xia. This time as an official, to be honest, it's just a mistake. Now there is nothing wrong with being a commoner in Xiafu, and in comparison, Zaixia also prefers to live the kind of life of 'picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and seeing Nanshan leisurely'. Carefree and at ease. ”

After speaking, Lu Ren remembered that "picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and leisurely seeing Nanshan" is Tao Yuanming's poem, and I don't know how many generations are different from this time. However, the artistic conception of the poem is there, and Emperor Liu Xie recited a few words silently after hearing it, shook his head and let out a long sigh: "What a 'picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan'...... Lu Qing, I actually envy you very much. Although you come from a poor background, you have never had any important responsibilities on your side, you don't have any worries, and you can live the life you want as you want......"

......: "Lu Renxin said, you are a little emperor, do you want to become a literary youth?" But then again, Lu Ren, a time-traveler from later generations, understands the mentality of Emperor Liu Xie, at least he can understand the posture of Emperor Liu Xie on the surface. Thinking that there was nothing suitable to say at this time, Lu Ren had no choice but to smile awkwardly, and then raised a toast to Emperor Liu Xie.

Emperor Liu Xie said in amazement: "Lu Qing, you are my only friend in cloth, and what is even more rare is that you have never had any utilitarian heart, and I can have a friend like you...... Alas, I don't even know what to say. ”

Lu Ren was also a little speechless. In fact, how many people in later generations can not be sympathetic to Emperor Liu Xie? At least Lu Ren knew very well that Emperor Liu Xie was by no means a mediocre person, and he was born at the wrong time. On the other hand, all emperors generally want to have friends around them, and the smarter ones will hope to have real friends, but as emperors, they are destined to have no friends. As for whether Emperor Liu Xie really regarded himself as a friend, Lu Ren was not sure, after all, in Lu Ren's opinion, there were too many impurities in it, so Lu Ren just positioned himself as a playmate.

At this time, Emperor Liu Xie asked: "Listening to Lu Qing, what you mean, do you plan to become an official again?" So what are your plans for the future? ”

Lu Ren responded: "I don't have any plans. Originally, I wanted to pack up my things and go to other places to see, but just now Cao Gong had already said that he would reward some farms and houses for the sake of his past merits, and he could go to farming for his work. ”

This is the truth, who to go to is under the fence, no matter how you say it, it's a little embarrassing. But if you really have your own farm, it is better to stay on your own land. Then again, it's only been these two years, and Xuchang is relatively peaceful here, there is no war before and after, and Lu Ren doesn't want to run around if it's not necessary. AS FOR THE PLACE WHERE WAN'ER SAID TO GO TO JUANCHENG FOR THE FIRST TRY, IN FACT, IT WAS PASSED BY LU REN AT THE BEGINNING, IT WAS RELATIVELY CLOSE TO GUANDU, AND IT WAS EASY TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT WHEN IT CAME TO THE BATTLE OF GUANDU.

Emperor Liu Xie said: "That's fine, at least from time to time, I can also summon you into the palace to accompany me to play a ball......

When they said this, Lu Ren and Emperor Liu Xie were already relatively speechless, and they didn't know what to say. But a moment later, when Wan'er entered the pavilion with a few plates of temporarily cooked hot dishes, she asked Emperor Liu Xie to find the conversation: "This girl is Wan'er, right?" ”

Lu Ren nodded, and Wan'er was about to retreat after giving a salute, but Emperor Liu Xie let Wan'er sit on Lu Ren's side. After looking at it carefully for a while, Emperor Liu Xie smiled and said: "It is true that he has a bit of Ruili and delicate, but it doesn't seem to be as gorgeous as the rumors say." ”

Lu Ren smiled: "It is rumored that this thing is exaggerated a lot, how can it be taken seriously?" ”

Emperor Liu Xie glanced at Wan'er a few more times, and muttered: "Lu Qing is twenty-seven years old this year...... Lu Qing, I think this Wan'er is good, but her background is indeed too humble. It's okay for Lu Qing to take her as a concubine, but you can't classify her as Lu Qing's wife in your main room, otherwise Lu Qing will definitely cause criticism. ”

Lu Ren smiled and shook his head, but he had no intention of arguing with it, after all, this was the concept in that era, and Lu Ren was unable to go against these humanistic concepts no matter how capable he was, so Lu Ren's response was: "Your Majesty, I am now a common man with no title and no official position, which official and which clan is willing to give the daughter of the family to marry me?" And to be honest, I really don't have that mind, with Katada House for me, I can live my ordinary and peaceful life with peace of mind. And for a person like me who has no ambitions, it is enough to have Wan'er by my side. ”

After hearing this, Emperor Liu Xie was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and he could only shake his head helplessly to Lu Ren. At the end, I looked at Wan'er, who was kneeling beside Lu Ren, probably to end this conversation with no results to speak of, so he sighed lightly: "I heard that Wan'er's flute art is not under Lu Qing, and since I have come to Lu Qing, I also want to hear about it." What does Lu Qing think? ”

Lu Ren didn't refuse, and he couldn't refuse, so Wan'er had to take the bamboo flute and play a few songs, which was considered to have given Emperor Liu Xie a rather elegant ending. Of course, Emperor Liu Xie had to praise a few words, and then he rewarded Wan'er with ten pieces of silk...... Emperor Liu Xie can only do this.

――――――――――――――――――――

Just when Lu Ren and Emperor Liu Xie were drinking and chatting in the pavilion, Cao Cao also sent someone to find Guo Jia. And when he saw Guo Jia, Cao Cao's first sentence was: "Fengxiao, didn't you go to Yihao to tell him secretly?" ”

Guo Jia was stunned. By the way, Guo Jia is only Cao Cao's staff, and he does not have an official position in the court, and Guo Jia has nothing to do with the discussion of politics in the upper court, so Guo Jia doesn't know what happened to Lu Ren at this time.

After listening to Cao Cao's words, Guo Jia said with a smile: "Lord Mingjian, those words were originally intended to be told to him after his family property was confiscated from the government. This kid's usual heart is quite calm, but when he suddenly encounters such a thing, his mood is not so calm. If he had been told in advance that he was too easy to show flaws in front of Zhu Qing, once anyone saw that he was acting, then this matter would probably be self-defeating, and the lord understood what he meant, right? ”

Cao Cao nodded in understanding. Guo Jia's meaning is actually very simple, that is, the play that is not acting is the best play, and with Lu Ren's current state, acting is easy to smash, so it is better to let Lu Ren act in his true colors without knowing anything.

Guo Jia added: "In addition, there are many officials in the court who are a little unhappy with this kid, and now when they see such an opportunity, they will naturally deliberately exclude him, so this kid will naturally be disappointed." And this kid was frustrated, but the lord showed him kindness in time, and he would naturally be a little more grateful to the lord...... But I really didn't expect that the Son of Heaven would come forward to speak for him in person. Miscalculation, miscalculation! ”

Cao Cao waved his hand and didn't blame Guo Jia, after all, no one expected that Emperor Liu Xie would come forward in person. After a pause, Cao Cao threw several fragments of the scrolls snatched from Lu Ren's fire pit in front of Guo Jia. Guo Jia's face changed after reading it: "This kid really burned?" ”

Cao Cao said bitterly: "Why do you think that Lone is joking with you?" ”

Guo Jia frowned and spun around in the pavilion, and only after a long time had passed before he shook his head and said, "This time it's a bit troublesome." These books are the hard work of this kid for several years, and they are asking about his human nature, if he didn't have the heart to do things and want to achieve some achievements, he wouldn't have written so many books. Now that it has been completely destroyed, it can only show that he has become disheartened and has the intention of no longer becoming an official. ”
