Chapter 424: See Cai Yong

After Liu Xin discussed the cooperation with Yang Biao, Liu Xin saw that it was not too early, so he decided not to chat with Yang Biao here, and wanted Yang Biao to take him to meet the people who had the power of the scribes, and by the way, it would be better to introduce so many people to Liu Xin.

Therefore, Liu Xin said to Yang Biao with a smile: "Brother Yang, this king thinks that we are quite bored sitting here, so if you can, please also ask Brother Yang to take this king to meet those scribes in Luoyang City, especially Mr. Cai Yong, Mr. Cai, Lu Zhi Lu Shangshu and other great writers, this king has admired them for a long time." ”

Liu Xin's words are reasonable in Yang Biao's opinion, after all, Liu Xin had discussed with Yang Biao before, hoping that Yang Biao could introduce Lu Zhi and Cai Yong for himself, and just now for various reasons, Yang Biao also forgot about this matter for a while, and now that Liu Xin said this, Yang Biao also secretly said how could he forget this matter.

So, Yang Biao immediately nodded, and then arranged for a subordinate to go to the living room to see if Cai Yong, Lu Zhi and the others had arrived.

After all, there are a lot of people who come to participate in Yang Ci's 60th birthday banquet today, and they each have their own circle of friends, and the importance in Yang Ci's eyes is not the same, so this time Hongnong Yang's family has prepared four living rooms, among which Liu Xin's living room is the highest standard living room of Hongnong Yang's family, after all, this is the courtyard where Yang Ci, the head of Hongnong's Yang family, is located.

Then in the special compound where the banquet was held today, there was a main living room, which was the place responsible for receiving those high-ranking members of the family's forces, and the place where the "battle meeting" led by Yuan Feng was held today.

And there is a side living room next to this main living room, and this living room is naturally used to receive the members of the scribe power in Luoyang City, after all, everyone has a common language, and to say a bad word, most of the members of the scribe force are either low in official position, or belong to the Qingshui Yamen, do not have much real power, or simply a group of "unemployed vagrants", so the members of these scribe forces are basically people with very ordinary identities and status, plus the so-called "literati arrogance", Yang Ci was also worried that the members of the scribe power would clash with other guests who came to attend his sixtieth birthday, and it would not be beautiful at that time, so Yang Ci specially arranged it this way.

As for the other ordinary guests, they were arranged by Yang Ci in a large living room, and another important member of the Hongnong Yang family was in charge.

After explaining to his subordinates, Yang Biao said to Liu Xin: "Lord Wang, I want to go to my father's room now and place this piece of amber properly, so Lord Wang, you can wait for me here for a while." ”

Liu Xin nodded very understandingly, and said: "Well, Brother Yang, you have to put this piece of amber away, even if there is only such a piece of amber in the hands of this king, its preciousness does not need to be repeated by this king." ”

Yang Biao immediately nodded, picked up the box containing amber on the side, and said solemnly: "Of course I understand that this piece of amber is definitely a unique existence in this world, and I will definitely place this piece of amber properly, please rest assured, Lord Wang!" ”

Liu Xin nodded, smiled and waved his hand to Yang Biao, Yang Biao understood, left the living room directly, and walked towards his father's room.

And Liu Xin began to look up at the sky boredly and began to think about life... And what will be delicious at Yang Ci's 60th birthday banquet tonight...

Liu Xin didn't know how long it had been, and finally waited for Yang Biao to trot all the way back to the living room.

Yang Biao looked at Liu Xin apologetically, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Lord Wang, I just had some accidents, and I met a cousin in Xia, so I chatted with this cousin for a while, and then I finally got rid of this cousin, so I came back late in the next time, so I made you wait for a long time." ”

Liu Xin came back to his senses at this time, and said to Yang Biao with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, this king hasn't waited long, so Brother Yang, you don't have to apologize." ”

Yang Biao saw that Liu Xin didn't mean to blame himself, so he was relieved, and then said with a smile: "Lord Wang, you are really an adult, by the way, Lu Shangshu and Mr. Cai have already arrived in the living room, if you have nothing else to do, then please let me take you to see Lu Shangshu and Mr. Cai." ”

Of course, Liu Xin nodded, and couldn't wait to get up and said, "That's natural, please Brother Yang, you can lead the way." ”

Yang Biao smiled, nodded immediately, and took Liu Xin to the living room where Lu Zhi and Cai Yong were.

I have to say that Hongnong Yang's family is wealthy, Liu Xin looked at the gardens that were large and small, and they were not repeated, and couldn't help but sigh like this.

And the venue where the banquet is going to be held tonight is a huge palace, this palace should actually be a huge house, which has been lit up with lights, and all kinds of preparations for the banquet have been done, but there are still many people from the Hongnong Yang family who are busy here.

And Yang Biao didn't chat with people less along the way, and simply discussed some matters for tonight's banquet, so he wasted a lot of time, which made Yang Biao apologize to Liu Xin again and again.

But then again, Liu Xin felt that he was also disturbing Yang Biao's official work, after all, Yang Biao, as the son of Yang Ci and the heir of the head of the Hongnong Yang family, had such an important banquet today, Yang Biao was the person in charge of this banquet nine times out of ten, and now, Yang Biao, the person in charge of the banquet, was wandering around with him, Liu Xin felt that he was a little sorry for Yang Biao.

Therefore, Liu Xin said to Yang Biao with some embarrassment: "Brother Yang, will this king be a little too disturbed, after all, this king thinks that Brother Yang, you seem to be the person in charge of this banquet, right?" ”

Yang Biao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile, and said: "No, no, no, you are too worried, the main job of the prince today is to be responsible for entertaining the prince and you alone, as for the person in charge of today's banquet, he is actually a younger brother of his father, but those subordinates have some small details that they want to report to the next place, so let the prince worry about it." ”

Liu Xin nodded, hehe smiled, it seems that this Yang Ci really looks up to himself, and even let his son accompany him on a special trip, this treatment is really good...

In this way, Liu Xin followed behind Yang Biao and came to the living room where Lu Zhi and Cai Yong were, and before Liu Xin entered the living room, he heard the pleasant sound of the guqin coming from this living room.

Needless to say, Liu Xin also knew that this was a member of a certain scribe's power in Luoyang City to show his talent, after all, there were famous scribes in the Han Dynasty, but they paid great attention to "qin, chess, calligraphy and painting", and the "qin" as the first skill, naturally was the most valued by the scribes, so in many historical records, most of those famous scribes had a good piano skill.

And now the sound of the piano coming from the living room is naturally very pleasant to Liu Xin's ears, and for Liu Xin, a music idiot who doesn't know anything about the guqin, he can also hear that this scribe who plays the guqin has extraordinary skills.

Therefore, Liu Xin stopped and stood outside the door of the living room, quietly listening to the beautiful sound of the piano, and Yang Biao on the side naturally stood in place, and he was relieved.

After all, Yang Ci has been following his father for decades and has seen many famous scribes of the Han Dynasty, and these scribes, regardless of their temper, have a common problem, that is, they pay great attention to etiquette, especially in a situation like today, if Liu Xin walks directly into the living room, it will definitely be regarded as a very rude performance, and even if it is Liu Xin, he will be despised by these scribes, and there may even be conflicts.

So Yang Biao was ready to stop Liu Xin and prevent Liu Xin from entering the living room rashly, and now Liu Xin stopped outside the door so politely, which made Yang Biao feel relieved, it seemed that he was still too worried.

And after a while, the sound of the piano in the living room gradually disappeared, Liu Xin couldn't help but nodded, Liu Xin had to admit that this was the best guqin performance he had ever heard (of course, Liu Xin could say that this was the first time he had listened to a complete guqin performance... Liu Xin couldn't help but follow the applause in the living room, and walked into the living room while clapping.

And everyone in the living room naturally noticed Liu Xin who walked in from outside the door, and Yang Biao who accompanied Liu Xin.

Most of these scribes here, or all of them know Yang Biao, after all, the circle of scribes in Luoyang City is so big, basically these scribes living in Luoyang City know each other, and Yang Biao, as the son of Yang Ci and the heir of the head of the Hongnong Yang family, is naturally a well-known existence in the circle of scribes in Luoyang City.

And now, Yang Biao, the heir to the head of the Hongnong Yang family, is following behind a young man who looks to be in his twenties, and at a glance he knows that Yang Biao is taking care of this young man, which makes everyone here know that Liu Xin's origin is definitely not simple, and some smart people here, or people who are more well-informed, have already guessed Liu Xin's identity, after all, in addition to Liu Xin, only Emperor Han Ling is worthy of Yang Biao's treatment.

And Liu Xin saw the middle-aged scribe who was still sitting in front of the guqin at first sight, dressed in a simple scribe's dress, and couldn't hide the unique temperament of this scribe, to put it simply, Liu Xin identified this middle-aged scribe at a glance, it was Cai Yong who he wanted to see!

After all, in Liu Xin's eyes, Cai Yong should be like this.

And Yang Biao also stood up at this time and introduced Liu Xin to everyone, "Everyone, this is the famous and hot king of Chengdu in Luoyang City, Liu Xin and Liu Ziqi of Yizhou." ”

Everyone present nodded thoughtfully, after all, during this period of time, Liu Xin's name can be said to be very loud, everyone present has more or less heard of Liu Xin's name, and has also roughly understood Liu Xin's various deeds, so they all have a preliminary understanding of Liu Xin.

However, everyone present was puzzled by Liu Xin's arrival, after all, Liu Xin had never had a "literary name", so everyone present was speculating about the purpose of Liu Xin's trip.

And Liu Xin naturally guessed that such a situation would occur before he came here, after all, Liu Xin also knew that the clerical forces were a very xenophobic circle, so Liu Xin was ready to deal with difficulties, after all, in a large number of novels that Liu Xin had read, there was a plot where the protagonist suffered difficulties in this situation, so Liu Xin had already prepared and countermeasures.

However, facts once again prove that some novel plots cannot be established in reality, for example, the current Liu Xin has not met a dragon actor who stands up to make things difficult for himself, after all, among these scribes here, they are not fools, first, Liu Xin's identity and status are so high that although Liu Xin, who is not a scribe, has the capital to enter this circle of scribes, and no one will be stupid enough to offend a big man like Liu Xin inexplicably; The second is that Yang Biao has personally brought Liu Xin to come, which means that Yang Ci has recognized that Liu Xin can enter here, which means that Yang Ci also agrees that Liu Xin is qualified to join this circle of scribes, after all, everyone here knows that Yang Biao, as Yang Ci's son, exists as Yang Ci's spokesperson in many cases, and many things Yang Biao does are behind Yang Ci's instructions.

Therefore, everyone present basically accepted Liu Xin's existence, but because he was not familiar with Liu Xin, the atmosphere at the scene was still a little awkward.

Therefore, Liu Xin took a deep breath, and then said with a smile: "Gentlemen, gentlemen (gentlemen in the Han Dynasty basically refer to scholars) Hello everyone, this king heard that all gentlemen are gathered together today, so it's like I want to come here to have a look, by the way, I want to get to know a few gentlemen, if there is any trouble, please forgive me." ”

Liu Xin's words can be regarded as well-founded, so everyone present said that it didn't matter, and some scribes also expressed their support and goodwill to Liu Xin.

Seeing this situation, Yang Biao was also relieved, it seemed that the scribes present had accepted Liu Xin, so Yang Biao took Liu Xin directly to the middle-aged scribe who played the guqin, that is, Cai Yong, who had been recognized by Liu Xin.

And it is true, this middle-aged scribe is Cai Yong that Liu Xin has always wanted to see.

As the host, Yang Biao naturally started the job of an introducer, so Yang Biao said to Liu Xin: "Lord Wang, this is the Mr. Cai you are looking for." ”

Liu Xin nodded and said with a smile: "Mr. Cai, in the next Liu Xin Liu Zi period, I have heard of Mr. Cai's name for a long time, and I was able to see it today, and it really deserves its reputation." ”

Cai Yong also smiled, naturally he didn't take these polite words said by Liu Xin seriously, but Cai Yong still replied politely: "Lord Wang, you are tormented, you are just a nobody, Cai Yong and Cai Bojiao have seen the prince." ”

Liu Xin smiled, shook his head and said: "Where is it, this king is not casually nonsense, Mr. Cai's literary name was heard when this king just returned to Dahan, so this king has always wanted to meet Mr. Cai, but after this king came to Luoyang, at first because he had various affairs, he couldn't spare time to visit Mr. Cai, and secondly, because this king was worried that something would happen suddenly, if no one was recommended by this king, he rashly came to visit Mr. Cai, I am afraid that it will cause Mr. Cai's disgust. Therefore, this king can only choose to wait until today, and meet Mr. Cai under the recommendation of Brother Yang. ”

Cai Yong's life experience is also very rich, so Cai Yong thinks that he is very experienced in judging whether a person is telling the truth, so Cai Yong can see that the current Liu Xin can be described as "true feelings", and Liu Xin really wants to meet him.

Therefore, Cai Yong said with some surprise: "Well, Zai Xia is just a flat-headed common man now, I don't know why you want to meet Zai Xia so much, Lord Wang?" ”

As soon as Liu Xin heard Cai Yong ask himself, he knew that he had been recognized by Cai Yong, so Liu Xin said with a smile: "That's because this king heard that Mr. Cai, you are not only a scholar, but also upright, and dare to expose the ten permanent servants who are corrupt and pervert the law, which makes this king admire, plus Mr. Cai's Jiaowei Qin and Ke Ting flute in your hand, it also makes this king fascinated, so this king has always wanted to meet with Mr. Cai, and then have a good chat." ”
