Chapter 52: Riddles and Riddles (Part II)

Liu Fan looked back, saw that it was a father-in-law, and said with a smile: "I don't know what my father-in-law is looking for a student?" Come, come, father-in-law, sit down first, let's drink and talk in detail. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Oh, yes, please forgive the student for not having a case, and I haven't asked my father-in-law for his name......"

Where does the eunuch Wang Xi have the mind to talk about wine at this moment, he came to Liu Fan with a task this time, although he was anxious, but he still had a smile on his face, and said: "Liu Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, hehe, the miscellaneous family is a small slave next to His Majesty, and his name is Wang Xi, and he can't enter Liu Gongzi's respect." The miscellaneous family took the liberty to come to the son this time, and it was really a last resort. Childe, look at this hall, Prince Rouran is arrogant and rude, doesn't Childe want to worry about the king? ”

Liu Fan rubbed his hands and said with an innocent look: "The student really wants to serve His Majesty, but well, His Majesty scolded the student last time, saying that the student is too showy, and the student thinks about it calmly, and he feels that His Majesty scolded too right, it is simply every word, and it is very correct." Now that the student has known his mistake, he has secretly made up his mind that he must completely change this problem and become a new person, so that His Majesty will be impressed. So......"

Wang Xi was speechless, this guy actually made this excuse, Wang Xi's smiling face turned into a slightly bitter face, and said bitterly: "This is to share worries for Your Majesty, not to be in the limelight, Gongzi is my great Chu people, and he is also a relative of the emperor, in order to defend His Majesty's dignity, what is the crime of arguing with that prince?" Childe can do it boldly and without any doubts. Besides, the prince of Hule is too arrogant, and Liu Gongzi is also my great Chu scholar, how can I let that small country barbarian treat my Great Chu Dynasty like this? ”

"Oh." Liu Fan nodded thoughtfully, is this considered a scolding of the street? But scolding the street is not very good at it, and discussing knowledge is almost the same as the appetite of this son. But Wang Xi's later words are quite right, that Prince Hule is really excessive, and it is really annoying.

Liu Fan paused for a moment, a trace of shyness appeared on his face, and said: "Princess, the student has the heart to serve, but he is helpless, and he is stupid, he is afraid that the teacher will be disadvantaged, but instead of winning glory for His Majesty, it has weakened the prestige of my Great Chu." ”

Liu Fan is very cautious and introverted, how can he quarrel with others in the palace hall at will? Even if it is, it has to be approved by the emperor!

After Wang Xi listened to Liu Fan's words, the muscles on his face twitched, and he was still speechless? The civil and military officials in the hall were about to die of shame, Wang Xi had no choice but to smile and say: "Liu Gongzi doesn't have to be modest, the miscellaneous family has confidence in you, and not only the miscellaneous family, many people also have confidence in Liu Gongzi." ”

Among these many people, does it also include Your Majesty?

"Since the princes have confidence in the students, the students are open-minded. For the sake of His Majesty, for the sake of Da Chu, the students are on the knife mountain, down the oil pot, and they will not hesitate to cut a thousand knives. Prince, you must write down this sentence, and later I will truthfully tell Your Majesty that the students are determined to sacrifice their lives for Your Majesty, and their loyalty to Your Majesty is unswerving. Liu Fan took the errand with righteousness and awe.

The muscles on Wang Xi's face twitched even more, and this time he barely squeezed out a little smile, and said, "Okay, Gongzi Liu, the miscellaneous family will do it, and Gongzi must not delay any longer." ”

Seeing this, Liu Fan suddenly doubled his courage and scolded the street by order, what else is there to be afraid of?

was about to appear, and saw that Weiyang Lingbian, who was not in light with him, had an angry face, and pointed at Prince Hule and said, "You...... You...... You ......" said a few words "you" in a row, but the words behind him couldn't be said anyway, obviously angry, but after all, his wit couldn't compare to the prince of Hule, and he couldn't find any offensive words for a while.

It must be known that if the adults here talk about demeanor, loyalty, and talent, they are all first-class in the Great Chu Dynasty, but when it comes to this kind of ridicule, let them drag a few sentences of "Zi Zeng said" and the like to make a little ridicule, but they are all embroidered pillows.

Liu Fan came out from behind the table and said to Tang Yan: "Lord Tang, you ...... You...... What are you doing? Your Majesty set up a banquet to entertain Prince Rouran who came from afar, but you are pointing at His Royal Highness the Prince here, and you are also a courtier of Your Majesty, and you can be regarded as a great Confucian who has read poetry and books, are you embarrassed? International friends, His Royal Highness the Prince, traveled thousands of miles to come to our Luoyang, for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries, with friendship and smiles, you use such an attitude to others, what should you do if you are angry? ”

No one thought that as soon as Liu Fan, a stunned young man, appeared, instead of targeting Prince Rouran, he pointed the finger at Tang Yan, and there was an uproar for a while, and many people in the palace couldn't help but think: "Is this Liu Fan crazy?" ”

Tang Yan was confused, what did this Liu Fan do when he scolded himself? It's really strange, whether this Liu Fan is a Chu person or a Rouran person, although there are some dirty contradictions between the two, but at the moment of foreign enemies, is this guy a little unclear about the situation?

He opened his mouth to speak, but Liu Fan interrupted him without hesitation: "What? Lord Tang is still not convinced? As a Weiyang order, you are walking in front of the palace, representing the prestige of the Great Chu court, but look at you, what kind of person is this, it is like a shrew scolding the street and insulting international friends, it is really Sven sweeping the floor! ”

Liu Fan pointed at Prince Hule with his finger and continued: "His Royal Highness the Prince is such a noble person, admiring my Great Chu culture, and even more fluent in Chinese, such a gentleman, you ruthlessly reprimand him in broad daylight and in front of everyone?" Although the student is only a scholar and does not have an official position, he can't stand it, no matter what, he has to seek justice for His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

"You...... You ......" Tang Yan was speechless for a moment, speechless, Liu Fan's mouth was too clever, he hadn't said a word, there were ten or eight sentences waiting for him, where was he Liu Fan's opponent.

Liu Fan sighed and continued: "If Lord Tang must show his official authority to scare the students, oh, yes, yes, the students almost forgot that the adults are still the sacrificial wine of Meiting Academy. The student has a poem that can just describe the adult: Lang Lang Qiankun is upright and every-spring, distinguishing right from wrong, and is highly respected. What kind of peach and plum are the flies and dogs, and it is difficult to break the bad roots of the people who regret it......"

Hey, this son actually made another chapter, and Liu Fan himself couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

Tang Yan was speechless, and suddenly his heart froze, and he thought: "He is a madman, I have not ordered anything to worry about him, and spread it out, but it has not ruined the old man's dignity." He pursed his lips, snorted coldly, and went back to his seat.

Seeing this, Liu Fan did not pursue, turned around to look at Prince Hule, and said with a smile: "International friend...... Ah, no, His Royal Highness the Prince, Lord Tang has just spoken disrespectfully, please don't be surprised by His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

Prince Hule said vigilantly: "What is this prince to blame, but he is just a little curious, they all say that Da Chu is a country of etiquette and a country of gentlemen, and it seems that today it is nothing more than that." ”

Liu Fan smiled slightly: "Yes, yes, but here, the student can assure His Royal Highness the prince that except for a very small number of extremists who are unteachable, most of them are actually still worthy of being called gentlemen." It's like just ...... down" Liu Fan smiled brightly, very weird, and looked at Prince Hule with a pair of eyes, no one knew what medicine was sold in his gourd.

Prince Hule sneered, but he didn't match.

Liu Fan continued: "For example, if you are just below, you are still very polite, you can all witness it, you can be a witness." ”

The huge hall, but no one squeaked, only that Chang Qian was very ashamed to deal with it: "Yes, Liu Gongzi...... It's still very polite. Quickly lowered his head, his old face was red, he still had to tell a lie in front of everyone at such an age, he regretted it a little, and he was ashamed of himself!

Liu Fan continued: "The etiquette of our Chu people is divided into two kinds, one is the gentleman's gift, and the other is the ** gift. For example, the gentleman's gift, it is as if the student has seen Chang Qian Chang, who is highly respected, indifferent, hardworking and simple, Yushu is in the wind, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, ancient road and hot intestines, high wind and bright festival, both ability and political integrity, sinking fish and geese...... Ahem, this sinking fish and geese are not counted, in short, all the virtues in the world are gathered in the body of Chang Daren, such an old gentleman, the student naturally practices the courtesy of a gentleman. ”

Chang Qian's old face was even redder, and when he saw countless eyes falling, he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Prince Hule just continued to sneer, knowing that Liu Fan was playing tricks, and was about to speak, but then Liu Fan said: "As for the gift of **, it is mainly for some barbarians who talk nonsense, such as Turkic, Huns or something, the so-called seeing people and talking about people, and talking about ghosts, in fact, the same is true." Therefore, this ** gift will inevitably have a bad attitude, please ...... Oh no, don't blame Your Highness the Prince. ”

A trace of anger flashed in Prince Hule's eyes, and he was about to sneer at him, Liu Fan interrupted him again, and said in surprise and fear: "Your Royal Highness, the student has a word first, and this ** gift is definitely not aimed at His Highness." The student swears to the sky, although Rouran is also a barbarian...... Oh, no, no, Rouran is by no means a barbarian, the student has no such thoughts, how can Rouran be a barbarian? Obviously, they are very polite, for example, they can speak fluent Chinese, and they can ...... Will it ...... Will you ......" said a few times in a row, Liu Fan's face became a little nervous, and he asked weakly: "Your Highness, I don't know what else your people will do?" ”

Prince Hule snorted coldly and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? ”

"Yes, you can still talk nonsense, hey, is nonsense also your country's specialty? Ah, nonsense, it's good, you can talk nonsense, it already shows that your country has entered the first stage of civilization. For example, His Royal Highness the Prince, he is very good at talking nonsense, and he fights with Confucianism, and the Confucianism of Dachu is beyond the reach of the dust, and he is willing to bow down. ”

Prince Hule said angrily: "You are reversing black and white!" ”

Liu Fan smiled and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, this is too wronged to the students, and the students who are black and white can still be distinguished, just like His Royal Highness the Prince, who is so black that he is shiny, black and stylish, and so black that he can't see his fingers." Speaking of this black letter, the students were full of doubts, and dared to ask, if His Royal Highness the Prince walked at night, would he be under a lot of pressure? ”

To deal with this kind of nonsense enemy, what Liu Fan has to do is to mess around more than him, and Liu Fan has a deep experience in this kind of thing, and the most important point is that you must not follow the other party's train of thought, you must grasp the initiative yourself, pick a word and play hard, and firmly grasp the initiative.

Prince Hule was furious and said, "Are you here to get in the way of destroying the diplomatic relations between your two countries?" ”

Liu Fan was surprised: "Diplomatic relations? Where does this start, His Royal Highness originally came to talk about diplomatic relations? Hey, why didn't Your Highness say it earlier, I just saw His Highness's appearance, why do I think His Highness is here to quarrel, and he is here to talk nonsense more than anyone. But I didn't want to, it turned out that His Highness had a heavy responsibility, disrespect, disrespect. ”

The hall burst into laughter, many officials had no scruples, except for a few officials of the Ministry of Rites whose faces were slightly ugly, most of them were already disgusted with this Prince Hule from the bottom of their hearts, especially the content of the diplomatic letter, and they hated him and Rouran extremely much!

Seeing this, Prince Hule knew that he couldn't talk to Liu Fan anymore, pursed his lips, and returned to his seat angrily.

Liu Fan smiled, no longer cared, and returned to his position, but he kept saying in his mouth: "Speaking of this diplomatic relationship, the student remembered one thing, it seems that the diplomatic relations between Rouran and Beiqiang are very deep, but His Royal Highness the Prince does not go to Beiqiang diplomatic relations, why did he come to Luoyang to have diplomatic relations with my Great Chu?" Hey, it's puzzling. ”

Everyone smiled, but a few officials from the Ministry of Rites secretly wondered in their hearts, this Liu Fan was just a prisoner, but he also knew Beiqiang? It is strange to know that Beiqiang borders Rouran.

Prince Hule snorted coldly again, and made up his mind not to pay attention to Liu Fan anymore, he knew very well that if he took Liu Fan's words, Liu Fan would have even more hateful words later.

Liu Fan looked at Prince Hule who continued to speak with a smile, and said thoughtfully: "Isn't it that Beiqiang himself is difficult to protect?" No, the Khitan is so powerful, is Beiqiang going to be out of order? ”

When these words came out, Prince Hule's eyes flashed with a trace of confusion, and then there was a hint of fierceness.

Liu Fan continued: "I can't imagine that the Khitans are so powerful, I don't know that the Beiqiang have been invaded by the Khitans several times, hey, repeated defeats, speaking of which the Beiqiang people are really miserable, but if the Khitans defeat the Beiqiang one day, what will happen to the land of the projectile, but it is exciting." Wan Er smiled, shook his head and said: "What does this have to do with me, the Khitan people fight, the best thing is to slaughter the city, if I am the prince of Rouran, I must die begging to lie in this Luoyang, no matter what, I will never go back to Rouran, if I am accidentally captured by the Khitans, castrated to be the eunuch of the Khitan, it will be too miserable." ”

Everyone listened to Liu Fan's thoughts, but they didn't know what it meant, and they were full of doubts. At this time, Prince Hule seemed to have touched his heart, and snorted coldly: "What is so terrible about the Khitans, don't say that there are 100,000 people in Beiqiang, even Rouran, and there are more than 10,000 warriors, if the Khitan army doesn't come, if they dare to come, they will teach them to come and go!" ”
