Chapter 255: The Gift
The snow-white mat cloth was in the warm basin, without the slightest sign of burning, and with a light glance, Han Rui seemed to smile and said, "This cloth pad seems to be a little unusual." ”
Usar was secretly proud, but he pretended to be indifferent, beckoned Han Rui to drink, never mentioned the matter of the cloth mat, and was ready to sell enough, until Han Rui couldn't help but be curious in his heart, and asked again and again, he opened his mouth to explain, however, Usar had calculated everything clearly, but he didn't expect that Han Rui II was a person, and some things that were ordinary in the eyes of the ancients were peerless treasures in his eyes, on the contrary, some rare treasures were ordinary goods and not worth mentioning, so Usar's calculations were destined to be in vain.
chuckled, Han Rui raised his glass and didn't mention what happened just now, which made Ursar feel disappointed a little, and secretly sighed that Han Rui was calm, he was not an ordinary person, but he would ...... Definitely can't sit still.
After a moment, Usar suddenly said, "Almost. ”
Then, he stretched out his hand on the charcoal hot pot, pulled the pad cloth, shook it gently, as if it was a spell, the pad cloth returned to snow white, leaving no trace of wine, a smug smile faintly appeared at the corner of Usar's mouth, looked up at Han Rui, and saw that he was calm, not half moved, and couldn't help but be stunned.
No, this kind of treasure is also a very rare thing in the countries of the Western Regions, and he has specifically inquired about it, the Central Plains region is even more rare, maybe only in the palace, there are tributes from foreign envoys, usually in the deep treasury, it stands to reason that even if Han Rui has seen it, it should not be treated so indifferently.
In the face of rare treasures, but silent, the city government is too deep, Usar doubted, but a little dazed and at a loss.
Han Rui smiled and said in a normal tone: "There are clouds in the book of Liezi, the cloth of fire and Huan, the cloth of Huanzhi must be thrown into the fire, and the cloth is the color of the fire. ”
With Usar's Chinese level, he barely understood the approximate situation, anyway, the word rare and rare will not be wrong, and nodded quickly.
"Well, that's good." Han Rui said, with a slight hint of approval.
That's it? Ursal was stunned, and he didn't know what kind of mood he was in now, he just wanted to grab Han Rui and roar, this is a baby, a treasure worth a thousand gold, you give some face, at least show a little excitement, can it be !!
Asbestos is only, in the future life, if there is no cleaner to deal with it, no one will pick it up on the street, what is there to be surprised about, Han Rui thought about it, and took another sip of wine, it was cold and cold, the taste was really good, smelling the wine, Han Rui had a whim, and asked curiously: "Brother Wusar, do you know how to make wine?" ”
Half a sound, Usar came back to his senses, what, brewing, of course not, Usar was about to answer, suddenly hesitated, what a chance, a flash of inspiration, and hurriedly said: "Master Han, wait a while, I'll come back immediately." ”
Looking at the back of Usar leaving in a hurry, Han Rui smiled, ignored it, and ate a piece of mutton, which was cooked over charcoal fire, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, it did have a unique flavor, maybe it was similar to the mutton skewers in Xinjiang Province.
After a while, Usal hurried again, with an extra fine wooden box in his hand, and when he arrived at the hall door, he slowed down, walked lightly, and said with a smile: "It is really rude to let your distinguished guest wait. ”
After apologizing, Usar sat down, quietly pushed the wooden box in his hand in front of Han Rui, and said politely: "Master Han, although I don't know how to make wine, but in the family, there are a few wine recipes, Childe, let's see if it's useful." ”
"It's just a casual mention, Brother Usar doesn't need to bother with it." Han Rui smiled and pushed it up.
"Recently, I have been taken care of by Han Gongzi, this is just a little bit of Ursar's heart, please don't shirk." Ursar said solemnly: "Otherwise, you will look down on Ursar." ”
Didn't do anything at all, how to take care of it, Han Rui shook his head slightly, it was just a temporary surname, and he didn't really plan to make wine, I don't know what Ursar wanted, this favor should not be owed, and he made a decision in his heart, Han Rui naturally would not accept it, and continued to refuse euphemistically.
It's really oil and salt don't enter, is this what Yu Chi Yiseng said about the literati bones, Usar was very distressed, he couldn't really be angry, so he had to put this matter aside for the time being, as if it was just a small episode, and the two began to talk and laugh again.
During this period, Han Rui also tried from time to time, Usar approached his goal, but felt that the time had not come, Usar naturally refused to reveal his tone, pretended to be deaf and dumb, and talked about him left and right, Han Rui didn't care about this, he didn't say it, he didn't say it, anyway, it wasn't he asking for someone, but he begged himself, and sooner or later he would know what was going on.
After being full of wine and food, Han Rui rested for a while and offered to say goodbye, but Usar was not easy to keep, so he had to readily agree, and sent Han Rui out of the inn, ready to send him home, but Han Rui refused, while it was still early, he was ready to visit Yu Shinan's house, and by the way, he asked a few questions about calligraphy and scriptures.
Leaving him in part, Ursar smiled away, bowed his head and returned to the house, muttering, "Good brother, you have won." ”
"Usar, I have already told you, this is not the royal city of Khotan, the nobles of the Central Plains, they are very 'courteous', and they will not be tempted by wealth easily." Monk Yu Chi Yi smiled brightly, and said as if comforting: "You should feel fortunate that there is no other action, otherwise the effect will be even more counterproductive, make people angry, and walk away." ”
"The Central Plains is really a magical place." Ursar sighed.
"Okay, Ursal, listen to me, don't calculate anything anymore, open your mind, make friends seriously, be honest with each other, and everyone will accept you sincerely." Monk Yu Chi Yi persuaded him.
Ursar nodded thoughtfully, but before that, there were some things that still had to be done...... In the afternoon, Yu Shinan also went home from the official office, according to the previous habits, in the study to read the scriptures, heard Han Rui's visit, a faint smile appeared on his face, naturally ordered the servants to invite people in, familiar with it, Han Rui came to the study, smiled and saluted, under Yu Shinan's signal, came to the opposite of him, sat on the ground and knelt on the ground.
"Today, how can I be free to come and visit the old man." Yu Shinan asked casually, bowing his head and flipping through a few pages of scriptures.
Han Rui smiled and said: "I happened to have something to do in the city, and after I finished it, I naturally came to visit and listen to the teachings of Duke Yu by the way." ”
"There are a lot of teachings, but unfortunately I have never seen you listen to them, so the old man didn't bother to mention them again." Yu Shinan said, raising his head slightly, with an understatement on his face.
Han Rui smiled embarrassedly, and he didn't feel much guilt, after all, the ancients said that it is impossible to obey the arrangements of others in everything, so what is the meaning of life.
However, in recent times, Han Rui can also be called a cultivator and a hard worker, Yu Shinan is still very satisfied, just a little beaten, and he didn't mean to hold on, put down the scroll, and said in a harmonious voice: "Say, what problems have you encountered again." ”
Han Rui was delighted, and hurriedly asked for teaching, worthy of being a calligraphy Confucian scholar in the world, a few words, it solved the problem that Han Rui couldn't understand, the so-called seeing the subtle knowledge, from Han Rui's readers' questions, you can know his level, Yu Shinan answered, and said approvingly: "Yes, it seems that I really studied hard." ”
"That's natural, thanks to the guidance of Duke Yu, famous teachers produce high apprentices, if there is no progress in the slightest, wouldn't it make you shame on your face." Han Rui said with a smile, quite a bit cheap and obedient.
"No, everyone knows that this is rotten wood that cannot be carved, and it has nothing to do with the old man." Yu Shinan smiled.
Han Rui's smile froze, but he forgot about this stubble, laughed dryly, put aside the matter, and said something else: "Gong Yu, when will the debate you said start?" ”
"The matter...... But there is no hurry. Yu Shinan groaned, frowned and said, "Looking at the current situation, I'm afraid it will be suppressed." ”
Han Rui was puzzled: "Why is this?" ”
Yu Shinan shook his head lightly, avoided talking about it, and said with a smile: "Han Rui, you are in the limelight again." ”
"What?" Han Rui was surprised, not understanding what Yu Shinan meant.
Yu Shinan said with a smile: "The poems you wrote for the music of breaking the array have been widely circulated in the court, heroic and vigorous, and have been praised by hundreds of civil and military officials. ”
"Ah, it came out so quickly?" Han Rui said in astonishment.
"It's not fast, you don't want to go down, Taichang Temple, in the imperial city, not far from the official offices of various provincial and ministerial supervisors, singing and singing, exquisite, who can ignore the past." Yu Shinan said with a smile: "Even, some officials don't have the heart to do things, so they secretly go to watch, let the imperial history catch it, participate in the impeachment, and be blamed, I don't know how to complain about you in my heart." ”
"Isn't it, and I'm to blame for that?" Han Rui was speechless.
Yu Shinan chuckled, chatted with Han Rui about interesting things about the court, intentionally or unintentionally, let him know more, the structure of the court, and the basic situation of some officials, and at the end, he said meaningfully: "Han Rui, listen more, learn more, maybe it will come in handy soon, and it will always be useful." ”
Han Rui was slightly stunned, this is not a hint, he had the heart to ask Yu Shinan clearly, but he also knew that he would not tell him directly, his mood was a little rippling, and after a while, he slowly calmed down, and found that the sun was twilight in the west, so he said goodbye and went back.
pondered all the way, returned home, and sat for a while, Han Rui found that there was a beautifully carved wooden box on the case, which seemed to have been seen somewhere, but for a while, he couldn't remember it, and asked the servant next to him, and learned that it was a gift from Usar.
Han Rui finally remembered, opened the box casually, and found that there was a note on the top, picked it up and looked at it carefully, the words were similar to the banquet just now, thank him for his care, a small gift, not a tribute, please smile.
"Ursar." Han Rui shook his head, put the note aside, looked down, and saw a few pieces of parchment stacked in the box, took it out and looked at it, Han Rui suddenly cried and laughed, the parchment was full of tadpole-like words, who can understand it, that's it, at least you can find someone to translate, but one of them is a hook line, not like words, but like ...... Map.
