In 291 A.D., the first year of Yuankang, the Western Jin Dynasty conquered the western general to sacrifice the wine Wang Xu to go to Chang'an, Shi Chong and everyone prepared to set up a banquet in the Golden Valley Villa in Heyang County, Luoyang, which was the first real literati gathering in Chinese history, and later generations called it "Golden Valley Banquet Collection".

Luoyang Pan Yue's house

Siren has passed away, and Pan Yue can't always cry in front of his mother and make her sad. It's just that the old mother found that since he returned to Luoyang from Zhongmu after his bereavement leave, his expression was always light.

At this time, Pan Yue told his mother that he was going to accompany Jia Mi and others to visit Shi Chong's Golden Valley, and he would never come back. Pan's mother-in-law nodded, which was considered acquiescence.

Pan's mother-in-law remembered that she had heard that the life of the rich Shi Chong was extremely luxurious, and the fight with the emperor's uncle Wang Kai was even more sensational in the capital. asked these relatives Pan Bowu (Pan Yue's nephew, the only nephew who escaped when Pan Yue was killed), Shi Chong how he became a prince.

Pan Bowu said with a smile: "The pomp and circumstance of the Anyang townspeople are far better than those of today's nobles, and there are many concubines in the family, all of whom are dressed in brocade and surrounded by beads. Its mansion and courtyard are not Xuan Xie looking at each other, and the clear stream is surging, like Qiongtai Yao Pond. ”

The little maid next to her also added that Emperor Wu Sima Yan had given him a coral tree more than two feet high in the treasury in order to help his uncle Wang Kai fight for wealth. Unexpectedly, Shi Chong snorted coldly, picked up Tie Ruyi, and smashed him to a pulp, and then asked the servants to take more than a dozen coral trees that were three or four feet high, saying that it was up to him to choose.

When the old mother heard this, she couldn't help but speak, and Pan Bowu said again: "I heard that the minister Liu Yu once went to visit Shi Chong's mansion, and when he went to the toilet, he found that there was a brocade blanket on the silk gauze bed, and I saw the maid on the side holding a sachet and standing in the colorful room. He thought he had strayed into Shi Chong's bedroom, but he didn't know that it was where his family changed clothes. ”

Pan's mother-in-law was not only surprised, but also puzzled: "Since Shi Chong is rich in the world, why does he still want to be with Jia Mi?" ”

This question was asked a little abruptly, and Pan Bowu knew that Pan's mother-in-law had always been dissatisfied with his uncle's attachment to Jia Mi, so he thought for a while before saying, "Maybe it's because I want to seek protection." But the uncle is different, the uncle actively uses the world, as long as it is used in the right place, the ancestors still don't mind. Besides, Jia Mi has the grace of knowing his uncle and others, which is comparable to the king of 'Chunshen' and 'Meng Wei', so they will gather to respond. ”

Pan Bowu's words are reasonable, recalling that his son's envy of Ronglu in his life is nothing more than to magnify the lintel of Pan's family, Pan's mother-in-law finally tried to understand Pan Yue's intentions. However, she was determined to always warn Pan Yue that he should be content and not cling, especially to stay away from Jia Mi.

But Pan's mother-in-law, Xing, knows that her son is easy to follow, and he likes to be greedy for power, and now that he is being reused by Lu Gongjia Mi, it is impossible to follow his advice. Thinking of this, Pan's mother-in-law sighed, she seemed to see that after Jia Mi fell in the future, the Pan family would also disappear.

"There is a different Lu in the golden valley stream at the border of Henan County, go to the city for ten miles, or high or down, there are clear springs and lush forests, fruits, bamboos, cypresses, and medicinal herbs, all of which are complete. There are also water mills, fish ponds, and earth caves, which are prepared for the pleasure of the eyes. When the general of the expedition to the west sacrificed the wine king, he returned to Chang'an, and Yu and the sages were sent to the stream, feasting day and night, repeatedly moving his seat, or ascending to the heights, or sitting on the waterfront......"

Zuo Si stroked the mustache on his chin, and groaned and praised, "I still remember the first time I visited the garden, the brother Shi did this "Golden Valley Poem Preface". The rhetoric is exquisite, and it's impressive. ”

Shi Chong hugged the beautiful woman in his arms, and smiled gracefully: "Where is it, Brother Zuo once made 'Luoyang paper expensive' with a piece of "Sandu Fu", which is amazing." ”

After that, he said to twenty or thirty literary friends: "Today, Shi is the east, everyone can have fun, and they won't go home if they don't get drunk!" ”

This Jingu Beilu is built on the mountain of Jingu Stream, during which the high platform flying pavilion and the Xiuzhu Liquan pitch can be seen. There is also a maiko music, where celebrities and gentlemen can drink until they reach the end.

Although Shi Chong is aggressive and rich, he is not good. It is better to punish people for drinking in the name of writing poetry. The person who was punished often couldn't bear the long and strong strength of the wine, so Shi Chong asked the maid to accompany him.

Pan Yue said that he had no intention of drinking, so Shi Chong explained him and said: "Brother Shi, don't be afraid of getting drunk, I have someone here to serve you." ”

Pan Yue took a sip of wine and said, "Brother Shi has a beauty, and he has no distractions. Pan thinks about his deceased wife and doesn't want to marry again, so Brother Shi doesn't want to make fun of me. ”

Shi Chong couldn't help but admire, but turned his head and whispered to him: "Today, Lu Guogong will take Jia Hou here." Empress Jia wants to meet you. ”

Pan Yue's heart jumped suddenly, like a drum whispering. He had already heard that Empress Jia had misbehaved and mingled with beautiful men outside the palace. Now......

When he had this idea, he thought it was funny. Is he still the only beautiful man in the old world? He's nearly fifty years old!

While everyone was drinking, the crown prince Sima Shu was in a dilemma in the East Palace, because he didn't know whether he should attend this Golden Valley banquet or not. Sima Shu and Mr. Liu stared at the invitation and couldn't pay attention, but at this time Sima Shu found that he lacked a strategist to help, but unfortunately the water could not quench his thirst, and the dilemma in front of him still needed to be solved by himself.

"Your Highness, the slave maid thinks it's better to participate, since the Marquis of Anyang sent you an invitation, it means that the other party must have received Jia Mi's approval, otherwise the Marquis of Anyang will never dare to send an invitation to His Highness in private."

"But this palace just can't figure it out, this is obviously a party organized by Jia Mi's henchmen, why did they invite Gu to participate?"

The slave maid thought that His Highness had misunderstood, and this party was not only attended by Jia Mi's subordinates, but also by many celebrities and celebrities. What's more, this banquet is nominally a send-off banquet for General Zhengxi's sacrificial wine Wang Xu, and I am afraid that many courtiers will be present at that time, and it is said that Empress Jia will also go to join in the fun! ”

"In this way, it seems that Jia Mi is even more unkind to invite this palace!" Hearing that so many people were attending the banquet, Sima Shu became even more nervous.

"Your Highness doesn't need to worry, Jia Mi just wants His Highness to make a fool of himself in front of everyone, slander His Highness's reputation, and use this to blow His Highness's prestige and create public opinion support for the future removal of His Highness! As long as Your Highness deals with it carefully and doesn't follow Jia Mi's way, there should be no big problem. Manager Liu comforted.

"I hope so!"

In Sima Shu's view, it is inevitable to participate in the Golden Valley banquet, and it seems that he can only improvise.

I got on the carriage and drove for nearly an hour, and finally arrived at Jingujian. As soon as I arrived at the entrance, I saw all kinds of luxurious carriages parked in the open space in front of the door. The coachman found a place and parked the car, and as soon as Sima Shu got out of the car, he saw a young scribe dressed in white and snow, accompanied by a majestic and mighty man, to the Jingu Stream.

Sima Shu's eyes were immediately attracted by the demeanor of the white-clothed scribe, who was handsome and chic, radiant, gentle and elegant, so that Sima Shu couldn't help but sigh: The beauty of the Three Kingdoms is nothing more than that!

"Who is this person?"

"This person is Liu Kun and Liu Yueshi among 'Luo Zhongyi, Qingsun, and Yueshi'!"

"He's Liu Kun!?"

Sima Shu was shocked, if there was a figure in the Western Jin Dynasty that Sima Shu felt sorry for, yes, it was pity, then this person was, Liu Kun and Liu Yueshi, who smelled the chickens and danced. When the Jin family declined, causing hundreds of millions of people in the north to fall into the hands of Hu Lu, it was he who carried the banner of supporting the Jin family alone.

Liu Kun led more than 1,000 people to leave the capital Luoyang and arrived in Jinyang (present-day Taiyuan, Shanxi) in the spring of the first year of Yongjia (307). At that time, Jinyang experienced war and became an empty city. Liu Kun pacified the displaced people, developed production, and strengthened defense in an environment surrounded by strong enemies on the left and right. In less than a year, Jinyang regained its vitality and became one of the few secessionist regimes in the Eastern Jin Dynasty behind the enemy lines of the Xiongnu.

Liu Kun is talented, and from the current point of view, he is an all-rounder, not only good at music, poetry, and songs, but also knows military affairs, civil affairs, etc. is especially good at psychological warfare, when he played a song of Hu Ji, he blew away tens of thousands of Hu cavalry, this is a classic psychological warfare, and Han Xin's embattled plan is similar.

It's a pity that this humanistic atmosphere is too heavy, especially trusting people with musical talents, and he is "good at caressing, and short of control, in one day, although thousands of people return, those who go one after another." It was Liu Kun's lack of character and ability that prevented him from being a good leader.

However, the cruelty of fate made him have to take on the responsibility that did not belong to him, for the sake of the Jin family, Liu Kun not only let his parents and sons die at the hands of the Hu people, but finally he himself died in the hands of the Xianbei people.

"Sure enough!"

Sima Shu looked at Liu Kun's back and sighed, he couldn't help but think of a small story in history. The Great Sima General Huan Wen of the Eastern Jin Dynasty is heroic and heroic, and he thinks that he is outstanding in appearance, handsome in the wind god, and extraordinary in his instrument, and often compares himself to great heroes such as Sima Yi and Liu Kun. Some people compared him to the general Wang Dun, and he was quite resentful, thinking that he was a hundred times stronger than Wang Dun-

Huan Wen made a northern expedition to the Central Plains, defeated the former Qin Fujian, and triumphed. The subordinates captured an old woman, claiming that she was the singer of Liu Kun's mansion back then. Huan Wen heard that she was a singer of the idol family, so he hurriedly invited her in. The old woman had already been bought by Huan Wen's subordinates, and when she saw Huan Wen, she stared at it for a long time, and wept-

Huan Wen was very strange, and hurriedly asked why-

The old woman said, "When I saw you, the general, I remembered Liu Sikong, you look too much like him!" ”-

When Huan Wen heard this, his heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly rewarded him with gold and silver, and then returned to the bedroom, changed into a new set of clothes, dressed up carefully, came out and continued to summon the old woman, and asked, "Take a closer look, where am I like Liu Sikong?" ”-

The old woman was also real, and looked up and down carefully, thought for a long time, and said, "The eyes are very similar, but they are smaller; The face is very similar, but it is a little thinner; The beard is very similar, except a little red; The body shape is quite similar, you are just a little shorter; The voice is similar, just a little sissy. There is nothing else, it is exactly the same as Liu Sikong! ”-

Huan Wen listened, stunned, cold from head to toe, went back to the house to take off the official hat, untied the jade belt, washed his face indiscriminately and fell asleep, and was depressed for several days-

In this way, you can see how charming Liu Kun's demeanor is from the side!
