To be honest, if time could be turned back, Liu Xin would definitely invite Zhou Yi to his courtyard in advance before Zhou Yi invited him to the banquet, at least he wouldn't have to abuse his stomach like this. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Liu Xin pondered carefully, and came without being rude, Zhou Yi invited himself to a Han banquet, so he should also give Zhou Yi a modern meal.

So, Liu Xin couldn't help but speak: "Lord Zhou, Brother Wentai, and Brother Bohou, if there is nothing else to do tonight, please come to my house, I have prepared a lot of good wine there, and we will not get drunk today." ”

Zhou Yi naturally knows that the good wine in Liu Xin's mouth refers to the bottle of grape wine worth thousands of taels of gold, and the reputation of this grape wine has already spread to the entire Han Dynasty with the legend about Liu Xin.

Naturally, this includes Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi is also a good drinker, but as a child of a family, Zhou Yi has relatively high requirements for wine, and has the mentality of preferring lack to excess, so the wine Zhou Yi drinks is relatively good.

However, Zhou Yi also has a different kind of feelings for grape wine, when Zhou Yi was very young, he once followed his grandfather to the banquet, between pushing the cup and changing the lamp, the host of the banquet carefully took out a jar of grape wine, and then Zhou Yi was lucky to take a sip, and since then Zhou Yi has remembered the taste of grape wine.

After Zhou Yi became an adult, he also tried to buy a jar of grape wine, but unfortunately it backfired, grape wine in the Han Dynasty, to be precise, in the Han high-level elite class are priceless, every time there is grape wine from Liangzhou to Luoyang, before arriving in Luoyang, after first removing the one supplied to Emperor Han Ling, the remaining grape wine was carved up by the top families, even the recently favored general He Jin, all went through a lot of hardships to buy a jar of grape wine from others at a high price, as for the price, It's not something that Zhou Yi can afford.

Therefore, this has become Zhou Yi's regret, but now Zhou Yi remembered that Liu Xin is now the most famous grape wine supplier in Dahan.

Therefore, as soon as Liu Xin's invitation was opened, Zhou Yi couldn't wait to open his mouth and agreed: "It's so good." ”

As soon as Zhou Yi's words came out, he knew that he was a little abrupt, so he hurriedly explained: "Well, it turned out to be Immortal Master Liu's invitation, so naturally I couldn't refuse, and I hope Immortal Master Liu won't blame me for being too abrupt." ”

Liu Xin hurriedly waved his hand, made a look of indifference and said to Zhou Yi: "Where is it, Lord Zhou can be a guest in the lower mansion, I am too late to be happy, so please Lord Zhou must come to my house tonight for a banquet." ”

Zhou Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Liu Xin didn't blame himself, and said to Liu Xin with a smile: "Immortal Master Liu, don't call me Lord Zhou anymore, I am a little Luoyang Ling, how dare I call an adult in front of Immortal Master Liu, so Immortal Master Liu, don't call me an adult anymore, just call me Zhou Yi, anyway, we are about the same age." ”

Liu Xin nodded, but said with some embarrassment: "Then since Brother Zhou Yi and you have said so, then I will call you directly, but then again, Brother Zhou Yi, don't you have a word?" ”

Liu Xin actually noticed a long time ago, just now Sun Jian called Zhou Yi by his name, Liu Xin thought that this was because Zhou Yi and Sun Jian had a very good relationship, so he called him by name, after all, a child of a family like Zhou Yi, when he reached the age of twenty, he would be arranged by the elders or teachers to arrange a table word.

And now, Liu Xin saw that Zhou Yi actually asked him to call him by his name, did Zhou Yi really have no words?

Liu Xin remembered that in Zhou Yu's relevant information, there was no description of Zhou Yi's words, which was obviously very abnormal for Zhou Yi, who was born in a family.

It's like having a person's nickname Li Goudan, and when he gets to the household registration, he really registers his name as Li Goudan, although it's not impossible, but it's completely unreasonable.

When Zhou Yi heard this question, he couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, as if there was something unbearable about the past.

At this time, Sun Jian stood up and helped Zhou Yi explain the problem with a wry smile: "Immortal Master Liu, this matter is a long story, I will make a long story short, this is how things are." ”

After Sun Jian's explanation, Liu Xin finally knew that Zhou Yi did not have a table word, but that Zhou Yi's table word was taboo, so he gave up using this table word in order to avoid it, and Zhou Yi simply stopped using the table word.

Things are simply like this, Zhou Yi's table word is Zihong, but I didn't expect that the name of Emperor Ling of Han who ascended the throne later was Liu Hong, obviously, Zihong Zihong can naturally be disassembled and interpreted as his son Liu Hong.

Although everyone knows that Zhou Yi's table cannot be interpreted in this way, but after all, this is a taboo for the new emperor, and Zhou Yi is still serving as the Luoyang Order, and he is an official at the foot of the Son of Heaven, so Zhou Yi's table can only be discarded, and the friends and family around him say that they call Zhou Yi's name directly, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to Zhou Yi.

"The Legend of the Ram: The First Year of the Min Dynasty" said: "The Spring and Autumn Period is a shame for the Venerable, a secret for the relatives, and a shame for the sage." ”

This is the basic principle of the famous avoidance system in ancient China.

The system of avoiding secrets, simply put, is that the king or respect relatives in order to show their majesty, stipulates that people avoid calling their names or writing their names directly in the text, and replace them with other words, from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the present, almost every emperor has avoided it, for example, in order to avoid the Tang Taizong Li Shimin's secret, the Ministry of Civil Affairs was changed to the Ministry of Households, and the name of the Ministry of Households has continued since then.

Because Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty was called Liu Zhuang, he directly renamed the book "Zhuangzi" as "Yanzi" at that time, and Emperor Liu Xiu of the Han Dynasty also changed the name of Xiucai to "Maocai" for a time, so there is the title of Maocai in some records.

And Chang'e in the Moon Palace was not called this name back then, and the original name should have been called Chang'e, but because Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was named Liu Heng, he changed his name to "Chang'e".

Of course, although the mainstream of evasion is to avoid the emperor's name, some officials sometimes ask their subordinates and the people in the area under their jurisdiction to avoid their own name, the most famous of which is the story of "only the governor is allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps".

There is such a story in Lu You's "Notes on Lao Xue'an": A Taishou named Tian Deng did not allow his subordinates and the people in the state to call him by name, nor was he allowed to write his name, but on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he should have put the lights on for three days as usual, but in order to avoid the name of this Taishou, the little officials who wrote the notices did not dare to write the word lanterns, so they could only change it to "set fire to the state for three days according to the regulations", so there was a joke that "only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light the lights".

Of course, even in modern times, although there are no clear rules to avoid, but the people will spontaneously avoid it, just like the name of *** will not be many will be taken, and the names of historical celebrities like Liu Bei and Cao Cao will also be consciously avoided, after all, Zhuyu is in front, take a name that is the same as that of historical celebrities, and will always live under the "shadow" of these historical celebrities, and life is gloomy.

After all, when you meet a stranger, as soon as you say your name, others will think of the famous person in history as soon as they come, isn't it very speechless.

Liu Xin never expected that Zhou Yi's table words were actually to avoid the name of Emperor Han Ling, so he would "lose" his table words.

But then again, Zhou Yi's table word "Zihong" is indeed the kind of table word that can make a big news, if Emperor Han Ling really wants to investigate it, Zhou Yi's table word can make Zhou Yi lose his official position and go home.

However, Zhou Yi is also a straightforward person, since he can't use the word "Zihong", then he doesn't need it at all, and he doesn't bother to think of a new word.

Liu Xin sighed, and said with some tears and laughter: "Brother Zhou, you are too unlucky, you just happened to hit the muzzle of His Majesty's gun today." “

Zhou Yi could only sigh helplessly, and said with some melancholy: "Immortal Master Liu, what you said is very right, you can only blame me for my bad luck, and the words on the table just rushed to His Majesty's name." “

Cao Cao will also say in a timely manner: "Yes, I used to have a friend with a macro in his table words, and in the end he could only choose to change the word and change the macro to a giant character. “

Liu Xin couldn't help but blush, I didn't expect that you, Cao Cao, were not a serious person, and you would tell some kind of colored jokes here.

However, Liu Xin looked at everyone as a matter of course, and realized that he was a little "dirty", after all, in this era, chrysanthemums are still a kind of flower.

Thinking of this, Liu Xin had to sigh that what he knew seemed to be too much compared to Cao Cao and them.

Liu Xin shook his head, threw out all the things in his mind, and said to Sun Jian seriously: "Brother Wentai, Brother Bohou, what about you, are you interested in having a drink at my house tonight, don't say much else, there is enough wine." “

Sun Jian heard some things about Liu Xin from Zhou Yi, including the news of grape wine.

Sun Jian, as a military general, is naturally not happy without drinking, after all, you are a person who practices martial arts, if you don't drink, you will definitely be laughed at, so Sun Jian is also a drunkard, and he often drinks a little wine when he has nothing to do.

As a nobleman in the wine of the Han Dynasty, the reputation of grape wine is already very great, it can be said that everyone knows it, no one knows it, and Sun Jian is naturally coveting grape wine.

However, because Sun Jian felt that he and Liu Xin had just met, and he still had to ask for others, he offended Liu Xin at first, although Liu Xin didn't seem to have the intention of pursuing it, but Sun Jian had a hurdle in his heart.

Now Sun Jian hasn't figured out how to formally apologize to Liu Xin, Liu Xin invited himself to be a guest regardless of his previous suspicions, and he didn't have the slightest feeling of hypocrisy, so Sun Jian was even more entangled.

However, the matter has come to this, Sun Jian can't resist the temptation of grape wine, and secondly, he is also impressed by Liu Xin's atmosphere, so Sun Jian no longer hesitates, and replied: "Since Immortal Master Liu has said so, then it is better to be respectful than to obey his fate, and I will bother Immortal Master Liu tonight." “

As for Du Ji on the side, he looked tangled.

Although Du Ji is an official in the capital, his family lives in a small village more than ten miles away from Luoyang, and lives with his stepmother and several brothers.

Although with Du Yi's current identity, he could have set up a house in Luoyang City after splitting up, but Du Ji couldn't rest assured that his stepmother, after all, it was still the same sentence, the transportation and communication conditions of Dahan were very backward, and the distance of more than ten miles of road, in case of any accident, Du Ji might not get the news until a day later.

Therefore, Du Ji is now saving money to buy a big house, after all, Du Ji has a lot of family members.

However, it is precisely for this reason that Du Ji has to return to his home more than ten miles away every day so as not to worry his family.

Therefore, although Du Yi also wanted to attend the cocktail party held by Liu Xin, in order not to worry his family, Du Yi could only choose to refuse.

Therefore, Du Ji said very regretfully: "Liu Xianshi, I'm sorry, I am now living with my family in a small village more than ten miles outside Luoyang City, if I attend the banquet held by Liu Xianshi tonight, I will not have time to go home, and my family will be worried at that time, so please forgive me for being rude and not being able to participate in the banquet held by Liu Xianshi, and please forgive Liu Xianshi." “

Although Luoyang has a ban on night walking, people like Cao Cao Zhou Yi and others happen to be the officials in charge of this area, so as long as they have their tokens, they can travel at will at will, and of course they can't go to the palace and other forbidden places to hang out.

However, even Zhou Yi himself could not leave Luoyang City at night without the edict of Emperor Han Ling, so Du Yi had to leave Luoyang before nightfall.

Filial piety comes first.

Although Liu Xin regretted that Du Yi could not attend the dinner party held by him, Liu Xin did not feel that Du Ji was rude, so Liu Xin hurriedly said: "Where is it, I owe it to me to consider this matter, then I will send someone to send a bottle of wine to Brother Bohou, and we will find a chance to drink together in the future." ”

Although Du Yi has never eaten pork, he has also seen pig runs, and he knows that the bottle of wine in Liu Xin's mouth is a grape wine worth thousands of taels of gold, and Du Ji feels that even if he uses this lifetime, he can't save enough for this thousand taels of gold.

Therefore, Du Ji decisively refused: "Immortal Master Liu, this matter is not allowed, how can I ask for your wine, as the saying goes, no merit is not lost, I can't take the wine you gave me for no reason." “

Liu Xin nodded, it seems that this Du Yi is the kind of talent who can withstand the temptation, and it seems that he is very suitable to be his subordinate.

Now, Liu Xin is even more determined to dig the foot of the wall.
