Chapter 77: The Confucian Banquet

I saw that outside the Confucian Mansion, there was an endless stream of carriages, and people kept coming and going.

Horse-drawn carriages were lined up from the streets to the alleys, and it was a spectacular sight. Some of the soldiers were maintaining order, and when they saw that people with special status allowed the carriage to enter the house, the scene was noisy, but it was not chaotic at all.

Kong Huaiyu is the eldest lady of the Confucian Mansion, and Ye Hao's carriage naturally no one dares to stop it, and the carriage gallops into the courtyard of the Confucian Mansion all the way. Kong Huaiyu got out of the carriage and went to the backyard, leaving Ye Hao alone.

At this time, a young man in Tsing Yi trotted towards Ye Hao.

"Aunt Ye, please come here, the slave will take you in!" The little guy in Tsing Yi said to him very respectfully, the master in front of him is a legend, and all the stories that have been circulating these days are about him. The deeds of adding oil and vinegar also made this little guy full of admiration. Looking at Ye Hao's indescribable temperament, coupled with his previous everything, he was ashamed of himself, so he lowered his posture of speaking.

"Okay, lead the way!" Ye Hao said immediately.

Ye Hao followed the little guy in Tsing Yi and walked into the living room of the Confucian Mansion.

As soon as he saw Ye Hao's figure walking in, You Heng, who was chatting and laughing with everyone, and Xu Gan, were immediately ushered in. Xu Gan said with a smile: "Ha Luha, Little Brother Ye looks really good today, he is really still a young man, he is energetic." Oh, come, the old man will introduce you. ”

As he spoke, Xu Gan pulled over a few people in satin brocade clothes and introduced: "This is Ye Hao, the son of the Ye family, the word Guansheng, is the old man's New Year's friend, not only has a good martial arts, but also has a very good literary style, and he also writes a good hand!" ”

"I've heard it for a long time, and today I finally got it, Sansheng is fortunate to ......" Several people also greeted Ye Hao, they were all young scholars like Ye Hao.

After a while, Xu Gan introduced many celebrities to Ye Hao, several of whom still left a shallow mark in the history books. Ye Hao, who has already seen many celebrities of the Three Kingdoms, seems to be numb to these, so it is not surprising.

However, Ye Hao was still very polite and greeted everyone one by one.

There are really a lot of people who come to the banquet, and because you are a regular here, you Heng is busy greeting the guests. Xu Gan is also a very high-status person among these celebrities, so he is naturally indispensable for socializing.

The banquet in the Confucian Mansion was arranged according to the order of status, because of the large number of people, it was divided into the inner hall and the outer hall. The outer hall is mostly composed of some small characters, and the children of small families who are not in the stream, as well as businessmen.

After Ye Hao sighed for a while, according to his qualifications, he was qualified to enter the inner hall, and after the introduction here, he got up and walked towards the inner hall.

"Dare to ask, did you make the poem "Hypocrite Song" 'Life is boring, do it and cherish it', and the famous Ye Hao of Qingzhou, Ye Gongzi?" A young man in an official uniform greeted him with his fists and greeted Ye Hao.

This man has thick eyebrows and big eyes, is very polite, and is eight feet tall.

Ye Hao's face showed a gentle smile, people talked about etiquette and made friends politely. He is not the kind of person who doesn't know what to do, so he suddenly stepped forward, and responded with a fist hugging his hand very kindly: "Fortunately, fortunately, dare to ask Brother Tai?" ”

"I am Beihai County, Sun Shao of the Sun family."

"Your word, but 'Changxu'?" Ye Hao asked with some surprise.

"Ye Gongzi, 'Changxu' is exactly the next word." Sun Shao said.

It is recorded in the history books that Sun Shao: the word Changxu, at first for Kong Rong's subordinate Cao, Kong Rong called him "Langmiaocai", that is, a talent who can be appointed to important positions in the imperial court, and then arrived in Jiangdong with Liu Xuan, and then became an important adviser to Sun Ce and Sun Quan. Sun Quan was called the queen of Wu and became the first prime minister of Wu.

This is an amazing character, Ye Hao was just about to sit down and have a good relationship with him, when there was a sound of footsteps next to him. But when he saw a strange man coming, tall and thin, with fine eyes and beautiful hair, he shouted, "Where is the little brother Guansheng?" I have not been far away, and I ask for forgiveness. ”

"You are the Wang Xiu of the word Shuzhi, the king master?"

Sure enough, the man replied to Ye Hao: "Exactly! It is often heard that Kong Taishou praised his virtuous nephew for his outstanding literary talent and wit. When I saw it today, it was! ”

"Uncle has a good reputation, and I often hear that when Uncle Wang governs government affairs, he suppresses the strong, helps the weak, rewards and punishments are clear, and he is deeply loved by the people, and I have admired him for a long time!" Ye Hao sat in the corner of the table and said praisefully.

Wang Xiu, the word Shuzhi, a native of Beihai Yingling, is currently the chief secretary of Kong Rong. It is recorded in the history books that whenever Kong Rong is in danger, Wang Xiu will arrive immediately even if he rests and recuperates at home. Kong Rong has been defeated repeatedly against the Yellow Turban, and often relies on Wang Xiu to avoid disasters, it can be said that Wang Xiu is the existence of half of the famous generals in Beihai County, probably similar to Zhou Yu's kind of Confucian general~.

In history, Wang Xiu has served Kong Rong, Yuan Tan, Cao Cao, and the most important official to Dasi Nong, Lang Zhongling. Kong Rong once commented: If you can brave the difficulties, only the king repairs his ears! Cao Cao boasted: Jun bathes in the body and bathes in virtue, flows in the state, is loyal to the results, talks about the beauty of the world, the name and the truth are worthy of each other, and the people are far away. Knowing the king with a lonely heart, deep and familiar, not in vain!

Kong Rong also came at this time and said: "Ha Luha, I didn't expect the two of you to praise each other politely, Shuzhi is my main book, and his talent is very extraordinary, virtuous nephew, you will want more Shuzhi to be close to you in the future." ”

"Nice, uncle." Ye Hao replied respectfully.

Wang Xiu picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then proposed: "I often hear that Ye Gongzi is good at poetry, not only carried forward the seven-character poems, but also created the original Chinese words. Today, when the sages are all over, can you improvise a poem? ”

Ye Hao came here and knew that he must compose poetry, and he did not postpone it under the difficulty of hospitality, "Well, since all the celebrities don't dislike me for being a shallow learner, then Xiaosheng will be ugly." ”

After speaking, Ye Hao pondered for a moment, and suddenly thought of a poem, Ye Hao took a full posture and slowly chanted:

"Life is a hero, death is also a ghost.

So far, I think of Xiang Yu and refuse to cross Jiangdong. ”

This poem starts with a high-pitched tone and clearly puts forward the value orientation of life: people live to be heroes among people and make contributions to the country; If you die, you will sacrifice your life for the country and become a hero among the ghosts. Patriotic passion, overflowing with words!

The poem has been finished, and there is silence all around, and no one has spoken for a long time! Almost everyone was shocked by Ye Hao's poem for a while! As soon as this poem came out, everyone was impressed, this Young Master Ye is really a genius!

Sun Shao immediately clapped his hands and said, "Okay, this poem is very exquisite, easy to understand, catchy, and expresses the true meaning of heroes!" ”

"Ye Gongzi's writing is outstanding, this poem is simple and clear, just twenty words, but it highlights the essence." ……

Everyone agreed, and Wang Xiu and the others looked at Ye Hao with even more different eyes.

A faint light flashed in Wang Xiu's eyes, and his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had seen Ye Hao clearly, and praised in his mouth: "A good one' is a man in life, and a ghost in death." That's how my boys ought to be. ”

"Good poems, good poems, a four-word poem by a virtuous nephew today, the end is wonderful, there is a legacy of the sages, and it should be a big white." As he spoke, Kong Rong drank all the wine in the wine glass.

"The younger generation's joke for a while can't be put on the stage, which makes my uncle and you laugh." Ye Hao said humbly and politely. The tone is neither humble nor arrogant, with a faint smile on his face, and a personable gentleman's style.

This left a great impression on everyone, making everyone nod their heads more frequently, and they all praised Ye Hao as a gentleman who was humble and knew etiquette

"If I can't even get this on the stage, how can I live when I wait?" A scribe said with a bitter face.

Kong Rong touched his beard and sighed: "Virtuous nephew, this is another famous poem that can be exiled through the ages, similar to your sentence 'Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people returned to fight in ancient times'." It seems that the old man is old after all, and he sighs that he is not as good as the virtuous nephew, and the other guys can compare the chapters of this poem? Come, please! ”

"This is one of the best works in the world, and this poem is enough."

"I'm waiting, there's nothing good to offer.

"Kong Taishou is very good, just rely on Ye Gongzi's poem, and he should be a big deal." ……

Everyone shook their heads and was willing to admit defeat, toasting Ye Hao desperately, and at the same time talking to each other.

For a while, the atmosphere in the scene was hot, and everyone present was talking and laughing at each other.

I didn't expect that one poem would solve all the problems, which was completely beyond Ye Hao's expectations. Ye Hao smiled and picked up the wine glass to drink with everyone, being able to drink with so many celebrities in the Three Kingdoms, he was also a little complacent in his heart, it was really a great joy in life!

Kong Rong drank the wine in the wine glass again, and said to everyone present: "If there is anything inconsiderate about the courtesy, please take care of it, and please eat and drink well." ”

It may be because of the frequent reception of guests, the decoration of the living room of this Confucian Mansion is magnificent, and there are many maids in the banquet, and the small maids are interspersed among them, pouring wine and serving food to the guests.

Kong Rong sat on the main seat, accompanied by You Heng, Xu Gan, and officials of Beihai County.

In the process of eating and drinking, Ye Hao also accosted Wang Xiu and Sun Shao, two celebrities, enthusiastically, and he continued to bombard the two of them with those exquisite languages of later generations. The more the three of them chatted, the more they felt speculative, and unconsciously, they had completely abandoned their seniority and began to call each other brothers.

"Beihai Sun Family's Sun Qian has arrived!"

"General Wu Anguo has arrived!"

"The general Zongbao has arrived!"

Listening to the sound of the little girl's report, Sun Qian from Beihai County, Wu Anguo, Zong Bao, and the three of them actually came together and walked into the living room. Sun Qian is very young, not handsome in appearance, but shrewd and loyal, thin like a bamboo pole, and has a smiling expression on his face. Zong Bao has a mediocre appearance, a round face, a somewhat fat body, wearing a full body of armor, and exuding a cold murderous aura.

The most rearly Wu Anguo is a strong man, very different from Zong Bao, he does not wear a general's uniform, he is about 1.9 meters tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, his eyes are like angry King Kong, his face is full of short beards, he is not angry and self-imposing, and he is full of people.

Wow, what a tiger general!

"Under the tent of Kong Rong in Beihai County, it is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!" Ye Hao sat silently in his seat, squinting slightly and quietly looking at the three people who were late. When he took a closer look at Wu Anguo, a gleam flashed in Ye Hao's eyes, and he couldn't even feel his cultivation, and his face became more and more solemn.

But I found that Wu Anguo's implied military general momentum actually felt close to the old man? Could it be that Wu Anguo is a first-class top general? Close to a super-first-class existence? It's simply amazing!

Sun Qianzi Gongyou, a native of Beihai, worked as a graduate student in the famous professor Zheng Xuan before he came out, and was recommended by him to the state. After Liu Bei became the pastor of Xuzhou, he hired him to serve as an official. Later, Liu Bei has been following, Jingzhou and Yizhou, and never abandoned. Similar to Jian Yong, he has good eloquence and is good at diplomatic lobbying. is Liu Bei's sworn friend and iron buddy~, and he is relied on as a cronie. After Liu Bei settled in Yizhou, he was officially awarded the title of "Bingzhong General".

Zong Bao: A general under Kong Rong. The Yellow Turban Yu Dang Guan Hai led troops to trap Beihai, and Rong asked for food, and reprimanded it. Hai was furious, slapped the horse and danced the knife, and melted the treasure out of the horse; The battle was not counted, and he was stabbed by Guan Hai and cut the treasure under the horse.

Wu Anguo: Kong Rong's subordinate generals, Kong Rong once said: "I have to be Anguo, such as Liu Bang has Fan Er!" "Good at making a meteor hammer, once challenged Lu Bu in the Tiger Prison Pass, fought to more than ten times, a halberd was cut off by Lu Bu's wrist, fortunately was rescued by other princes together.

"Ha Luha, the old man has a banquet, the three of them finally came, the old man is so honored!"

At this moment, Kong Rong's laughter sounded, strode to the front of the banquet, and said to everyone present: "It's better to come early than to come by chance, the old man has two things to discuss with you today, this is the first thing, let's take a look at the letter in my hand first." ”

Those who can attend the banquet of Confucius Mansion are all people with heads and faces in Beihai County. After Kong Rong finished speaking, he took out a letter from his official sleeve and handed it to the people present, and the whole audience passed it and read it, it was Cao Cao's letter to Dong Yuwen!
