Early the next morning, Liu Ze personally cooked a pot of soup with mutton bones. The mutton has been cut into thin slices by the cook, and all kinds of ingredients have been washed and prepared, and Liu Ze personally adjusted the sesame paste and leek sauce.

In the end, Liu Ze put a charcoal basin under the table where the charcoal was placed and was red. The so-called table is just a few temporary wooden boards, leaving a round hole in the middle just to place the charcoal brazier, and then the marching pot full of mutton bone soup is placed on the table, and a large plate of mutton slices and various vegetables are placed around, and each person has a bowl of prepared sauce.

Liu Ze beckoned Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Guan Hai, Pan Feng, and Wu Anguo to sit down, ready to eat. Except for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, everyone looked at each other, did anyone eat in a pot? Liu Ze said with a smile: "You don't have to be restrained, please eat something fresh today, this is called shabu mutton, even shabu to eat, don't be stunned, come and come, ensure that after you eat, you will have a good meal." ”

And they all sat down in turn. Liu Ze told them how to eat shabu-shabu, in fact, it was very simple, throw the ingredients into the boiling pot, cook for a while, and then eat them and eat them with seasonings.

As soon as everyone put the ingredients into the pot, there was a hearty laugh outside the tent, and someone said: "Meng De, it seems that we have a good fortune today." ”

But it was Huangfu Song's voice, Liu Ze and the others hurriedly got up, but saw Huang Fu Song and Cao Cao walking in together, Huang Fu Song said: "I smelled the tempting fragrance from afar, dare to love Runde got wild meat here, I don't know if I can share a piece of the pie?" ”

Liu Ze said with a smile: "General Huangfu and Brother Meng De are willing to give their faces to dine in the humble tent, it is an honor for the humble position, please sit down." ”

Huangfu Song honestly and unceremoniously sat down on the chief. Cao Cao smiled and thanked Liu Ze and sat down in the second seat. Liu Ze accompanied him in the main position, followed by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

As for Guan Hai, Pan Feng, and Wu Anguo, they saw the arrival of Huangfu Song. I'm embarrassed to sit down anymore, and I'm ready to quit the tent. Huangfu Song waved his hand and said: "Don't go, don't go, my Huangfu Song came and drove everyone away, how inappropriate, this place is quite spacious, sit down." "Huangfu Song is modest, sympathetic to his subordinates, and has no official position at all.

Liu Ze smiled and asked Guan Hai and the three of them to sit at the end. He also ordered his soldiers to bring two sets of chopsticks.

Huangfu Song and Cao Cao were patrolling the camps everywhere, but today they happened to pass by Liu Ze's camp in Baimadu, and they smelled the fragrance of Liu Ze's carefully cooked mutton bone soup from afar, and rushed over, just in time for this delicious meal. Huang Fu Song saw that the things cooked in the marching pot on the table were indeed unprecedented, and said suspiciously: "Runde, is this the flavor of your hometown?" ”

In the Han Dynasty, most formal occasions used a separate meal system, and family meals were eaten with a meeting meal system. Even if it is a dinner, the cooked things are put on the plate and bowl on the table, and it is probably unheard of to eat directly in front of the pot like Liu Ze.

Liu Ze said: "This shabu-shabu is the first of the lowly position, yesterday the subordinate hunted a yellow sheep back, and the lowly job had a whim." Cut the mutton into thin slices, soak it in water and immediately remove it and eat it, that is, it will not lose the deliciousness of the mutton. You can also feel this steaming atmosphere, when the weather is cold. It couldn't be more suitable. ”

Huangfu Song is open-minded by nature and is also an informal person. Otherwise, if Lu Zhi and Cai Yong are here, they will have to make a discussion about the gentleman's cooking. Huangfu Song picked up the raw mutton slices and put them in the pot, looking at the red meat slices The color turned white in an instant, Liu Ze signaled that it was edible, Huangfu Song took a chopstick mutton and put it in the bowl, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully, and couldn't help but praise: "Wonderful!" It's really wonderful, the mutton is soft and tender, the soup is fragrant, Runde is really a genius, such a delicacy, even if it is a delicacies of the mountains and seas. ”

Liu Ze said with a smile: "It's good if General Huangfu likes it." ”

"How can there be no wine for such a delicious meal?" Huangfu Song looked at the table, there was only food and no wine.

Liu Ze explained: "It is forbidden to drink alcohol in the army, how dare you violate military orders. ”

Huangfu Song said: "Now is only the time of garrison, not the time of marching and fighting, and it is not forbidden to drink, but it is not allowed to get drunk and make mistakes." ”

As soon as he heard that he could drink, Zhang Fei was happy, got up and ran to the room, brought over two jars of wine, and personally poured a bowl for everyone.

Everyone was drinking and eating, and Huangfu Song said with emotion: "When you sing about wine, what is your life?" For example, the morning dew is bitter in the past. When you are generous, you can never forget your worries, and how to solve your worries is only Du Kang. I still remember this poem at the beginning of Runde's Mansion on the Lu Gongfu, how can a good sentence solve my worries, only Du Kang, Runde, the few jars of wine you gave me are still sealed in my house, I thought I could drink it during the Chinese New Year this year, and it seems that I have to stay in the coming year. ”

Liu Ze's face turned red, the original author of this poem was sitting next to him at this time, although Cao Cao had no objections (of course, there could be no objections, this poem has been attributed to Liu Ze's name), but Liu Ze was sweating in his heart!

Cao Cao said: "Jingshi has long been rumored that Runde is proficient in astronomy, calligraphy is known as the world's best, eight steps into poetry is even more famous, to meet with Runde, every day marching and fighting, there is no leisure to chant poems as a gift, today it is rare to have such a wine and feast, Runde is not as good as a poem to help the fun?" ”

Liu Ze was embarrassed and excused himself: "Brother Meng De is talented, his poetry and songs are unique in the world, and the younger brother is only shallow in learning, how dare he make an axe?" ”

Cao Cao laughed and said: "Brother Runde is too modest, in the capital, no one knows the talent of Liu Runde of Zhuo County, Ruan Yuanyu prides himself on being one of the seven talents, but he was completely defeated by the virtuous brother, it is the ability to become a poem in eight steps, and it is impossible to be a brother." ”

Huangfu Song was very interested, and said: "The two of them are the first contemporary scholar Cai Yilang's high feet, and Meng De has been famous for a long time. ”

Cao Cao didn't shirk it, but people have real talent and learning, so he pondered for a while, and said: "Runde once wrote "Short Song Xing", and I also gave a song with this title, please correct it." ”

Nai Yin said: "Zhou Xi Bochang, cherish this holy virtue." There are three parts of the world, and there are two of them. Cultivation contributions, ministers are not honored. Chonghou slandered him, and he was restrained. Later, he saw the forgiveness of the original, and gave him the axe, so that he could conquer. As Zhong Ni said, he reached virtue, served Yin, and talked about its beauty. Qi Huan's work is the head of the hegemon. The princes of Jiuhe, the world is a Kuang. One Kuang world, not with military vehicles. Righteous but not bad, its virtue is said. Confucius sighed, and called Yiwu, and the people received his favor. Give the temple gir, and there is no worship. Xiaobai didn't dare, Tianwei was close at hand. Jin Wen is also a tyrant, bowing to the king of heaven. He was given Gui Zhan, a Ji Hu Tong Bow, a thousand Lu Gong and a thousand arrows, and three hundred tigers. Obey the princes, and be respected by the teacher. Heard from all directions, the name is Yaqi Huan. The meeting of Heyang, falsely called the king of Zhou, is its name. ”

As soon as a poem came out, Huangfu Song stroked his palms and laughed, and praised repeatedly: "Good poems and good poems, lofty intentions, impassioned, Meng De is worthy of being the leader among young talents, and only Runde can match it." Runde, it's your turn. ”

Liu Ze couldn't help but complain, after he plagiarized Cao Cao's "Short Song Xing", Cao Cao could still make another song, a genius is a genius, and it is really impossible to be unconvinced. Now it's hard for me to ride a tiger, I really don't know much about Han poems, Cao Cao's father and son have let themselves plagiarize, and I really can't find a single Han poem. No matter, Tang poems will be Tang poems, let's get through today's difficulties first.

At that moment, Liu Ze said with a smile: "Brother Meng De's poetry is unique in the world, and the younger brother is just a candle compared to it, how can he compete with the sun and the moon, he didn't dare to offer ugliness, but you didn't follow, so I had to catch the ducks on the shelves." ”

Shen said: "The golden bottle of sake is ten thousand, and the jade plate is ten thousand dollars." I couldn't eat when I stopped throwing my cup, and I was at a loss when I drew my sword and looked around. If you want to cross the Yellow River and ice congestion river, you will climb the snow-filled mountains of Taihang. Idle fishing sit on the stream, and suddenly take a boat to dream of the sun. The road is difficult, the road is difficult, the road is divergent, and now it is safe. There will be times when the wind and waves will be long, and the clouds will sail into the sea. ”

After chanting, Liu Ze saw that Huangfu Song and Cao Cao were both indifferent, bitter and unwavering, and secretly said in his heart, it's bad, isn't it because they heard something, this poem is Li Bai's masterpiece, isn't it too advanced? Nai said: "Thank you ugly, thank you ugly." ”

Cao Cao was the first to wake up from his intoxication and sighed: "A good sentence wants to cross the Yellow River and ice jam river, and will climb the mountains full of snow in Taihang. There is a stone in the world's poetry, and Runde enjoys eight buckets exclusively. If you are born and, what is Shengze? Runde, living in this world with you is the sorrow of our poets. ”

This poem "Difficult to Walk" can be said to be the pinnacle of the entire ancient Chinese poetry, which makes Cao Cao sigh to himself. Since ancient times, literati have been contemptuous, and literati have looked down on others in their bones, and Cao Cao is naturally not exempt from vulgarity. As soon as Liu Ze's "Short Song Xing" came out, Cao Cao was amazed, but he didn't care, thinking that he could make such a level of poetry himself (in fact, he made it himself), so Cao Cao also made a "Short Song Xing", whether it was intended or momentum, it was not inferior to Liu Ze's "Short Song Xing", but Liu Ze's "Difficult to Walk" came out, Cao Cao was completely convinced.

Huangfu Song also praised: "Runde this poem ups and downs, both the sigh of reality, and the thinking of life, the last sentence is even more straightforward, full of pride, this poem is out, thousands of poems are eclipsed, the world is afraid that there is no poetry to be out of the right." ”

They chanted poems here, and the evaluation was high, Zhang Feike couldn't understand a word, and complained with a stomach: "What kind of wind and waves, what does it mean, it's better to eat happily." Oh, big brother, this mutton is not big and stewed, you cut it into thin slices, and you can't eat it well, why is eating shabu mutton like washing chopsticks. ”

Zhang Fei is bold by nature, he likes to eat large pieces of meat and drink wine in large bowls, and a few thin slices of mutton are not pleasant to eat, but the words in his mouth are very appropriate to wash chopsticks, and everyone laughs. (To be continued......)
