Chapter 55: Recruiting Talents [II]
Ren shop is really worthy of being a big store in Bianliang City, three restaurants reflect each other, stand in the form of a product, the main building is five stories high, and the two auxiliary buildings are not short, there are four floors. Sitting on the top floor, you can sit and watch the scenery of the small half of Bianliang City. Even if it is the second or third floor, you can also watch the scenery of the Xiaoji River outside the store. On the other side of the Xiaoji River is the backyard of a Taoist temple, and the backyard is full of plum trees.
Although it is not the season for plum blossoms to bloom at the moment, there are still two or three pink plum blossoms blooming in the cold wind on each plum tree, and they fall on a snow-white earth, which is so beautiful.
The river near Rendian is planted with willow trees, you can imagine how poetic it is in spring, when the willow branches sprout, the drizzle, the spring breeze blows, and the willow branches shake gently. It's no wonder that Ren Store can become bigger, the nearby environment is very important.
As soon as Zhao Yu arrived near the gate of Rendian, he was greeted by two or three well-dressed intellectuals. "Childe Wanfu! I don't know if Childe is going to set up a banquet or be invited to an appointment? ”
Zhao Yu waved his hand boldly, and Xiao Xuanzi immediately rushed out from behind a forbidden army, and a copper coin flew out. Although the winter sun was not too violent, Zhao Yu saw a flash of light in the eyes of the intellectual.
Zhike quickly took the copper coin, and the smile on his face was sincere, and it is estimated that he treated his own father with such an expression!
"Set up a two-table banquet in the lobby, and then open a private room for me on the top floor of the main building!" Zhao Yu said indifferently.
When the acquaintance heard this, he was embarrassed.
"Miscellaneous? Do you think that my son-in-law can't get out of this money? Naturally, Zhao Yu didn't need to come forward to inquire about this matter, and Li Lizhong stood up with an angry face. Compared with his strong physique, it is called a huge disparity, as if a big man is bullying a young girl.
Zhike was also taken aback by Li Lizhong, who was six feet tall, and couldn't help but be timid in his heart, and he had no confidence to speak. "Childe, it's not a small snubbing, it's really that the top floor has been wrapped up for the banquet of Lu Xianggong's eldest son on the spot to go to the exam, and the small one is really helpless!"
Zhao Yu frowned, the Xianggong Lu in this Zhike is not a person with a casual surname Lu, who can be called Xianggong in the Song Dynasty, can only be a person who has been a prime minister, or is already a prime minister. The surname Lu in the court is Lu Yijian, and his eldest son is Lu Gongxuan.
Xiao Xuanzi is worthy of being born in the palace, but he remembers these things very clearly, and reminded on the side: "The current Jixian Academy Governor, Prince Zhongyun and other positions!" ”
Zhao Yu touched his chin and didn't make a sound. The acquaintance didn't dare to urge, although Zhao Yu was young, but he was followed by more than a dozen powerful guards, but he was holding weapons openly on the street, such a boy and brother were not something that he could offend as a small acquaintance.
In the end, Zhao Yu still felt that it was a little bad to offend Lu Yijian at the moment, and Lu Yijian, the old fox, could be said to be the No. 1 important minister under Liu E. If he is demolishing his son's platform now, I am afraid that he will be misunderstood that Song Renzong is ready to attack Liu E. From the fact that Song Renzong was unwilling to change the era name and did not change the pattern of the imperial court, it can be roughly seen that at present, Song Renzong still wants to focus on stability, wait and see first, and then make adjustments.
Zhao Yu is naturally not good, for the sake of a box, he ruined Song Renzong's big things.
Zhao Yu, who was very depressed, pointed to the annex building next to him and said, "Don't worry, there is no private room there!" ”
Although the top floor of the auxiliary building and the fourth floor of the main building are about the same height, how can Zhao Yu's identity be able to dine at the feet of Lu Gongxuan? If you spread it, won't it become a joke for others? Although few people know Zhao Yu's identity at the moment, they are afraid of being recognized, and Zhao Yu cannot be comfortable in his heart.
This time, Zhike did not say that anyone had chartered the venue, in fact, in order to prevent offending the guests who came to the banquet, Ren Restaurant generally rarely chartered people. That is, Lu Gongxuan and other second-generation officials, so they have such ability.
Zhike welcomed Zhao Yu and the others into the annex building with some surprise, and the twenty forbidden soldiers ate in the lobby, while Li Lizhong, Xiao Xuanzi and the other four forbidden soldiers followed Zhao Yu to the box, and the forbidden soldiers stood guard outside the door, and they would take turns standing guard later. After all, Zhao Yu had only been assassinated two months ago, and it was impossible for his vigilance to relax.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhao Yu was also a little full, so he went downstairs to enjoy the scenery. Li Lizhonghe originally wanted to follow, but Zhao Yu knew that he had a large amount of food, and he definitely didn't eat enough at this time, so he refused, this is to take Xiao Xuanzi and four forbidden soldiers downstairs.
As a big hotel, the scenery near Rendian is not bad, the backyard is planted with flowers and trees, and there are more than 20 plum trees, forming a small plum blossom forest. In addition, there are some green bamboos, rockeries, flowing water, a cobblestone path that twists and turns in the snow, and lanterns hang one after another between the branches, so you can imagine that this place does not give people a deep and dark feeling at night.
Many guests lingered here to watch after dinner, Zhao Yu was tired of walking, and just saw a pavilion in front of him, so he wanted to go in and rest.
I don't want to hear five or six scholars in the pavilion talking about it, talking about it is nothing, the scholars have talked about it since ancient times, but the people who open their mouths talk about things are not ordinary things! It's Western Xia!
"The court is still drunk and dreaming of death, and the princes in the hall are vying for power and profit, but they don't know that the Western Xia is sharpening their knives. What a life of sorrow and death of peace! ”
Zhao Yu stood near the bamboo forest, so that the forbidden army was silent and carefully watched the person who spoke.
The person who spoke looked thirty-two or thirteen years old, although he was wearing a scholar's uniform, but his chin was a circle of iron beards, saying that he was a literati, I am afraid that he was even more chivalrous and martial artist!
"Zhang Zishi, you can't help but worry too much! What is that Western Xia? It's just a green-skinned hooligan who took advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the troubled times in the former Tang Dynasty. If he dares to rebel, as soon as the 100,000 troops of the imperial court come out, they will be destroyed like slaughtering sheep and killing them like slaughtering dogs. This friend of the beginning of Zhang was not as good as his words, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was sarcastic and arrogant.
Zhang Zishi was dissatisfied: "You live in the Central Plains, how can you know about the affairs of Western Xia!" The old chieftain of Western Xia died of illness, and the new chieftain Li Yuanhao had great ambitions and often led troops to covet his neighbors in all directions. ”
"Then did it violate my Great Song?" A gentleman interjected.
"Not yet, but ......" Zhang Zishi was interrupted again before he finished speaking.
The scholar sneered and said: "Don't say anything, that party barbarian, that is, dare to bully the Qiang people, Tubo and other dogs!" I am in the Great Song Dynasty, how dare I covet it? Moreover, he has just ascended the throne, and he is a poor soldier, that is, a figure like Emperor Yang of Sui! ”
The other scholars, except for Zhang Zishi and another scholar with a national character face, all praised this scholar for making sense. PS: The third update is here! Fourth, I'm afraid it will be a little later, because Cousin Mumu's mobile phone is broken, and I have to go outside with her to repair it, which will be delayed for about an hour or two. Therefore, the fourth update is estimated to be uploaded at about 23 o'clock at the earliest.
