Chapter 104: The Fish and the Bear's Paw
Liu Ze groaned, but there was silence on the spot, Liu Ze was stunned, could it be a revealing stuffing - impossible, this poem was written by Cao Cao more than ten years later, is it ...... Looking at everyone again, they all looked intoxicated, and they were all shaking their heads and chanting in a low voice.
First of all, Cai Yong sighed: "Wonderful, wonderful, a good sentence to drink as a song, how much is life?" Asked gently, worried about the ancient and modern talents. Since the Book of Poetry, the four-word poem has gradually declined, few masterpieces have come out, but Runde this poem, the intention is lofty, ups and downs melodious, it is a masterpiece that has not been seen for many years, this poem will be famous all over the world, praise the world. β
Huang Wan also said: "The whole poem not only has the emotion of life, but also the meaning of thirst for talent, the last sentence of Zhou Gong vomits, the world returns to the heart, implying the spirit of the king, I view Runde must have a bright future." β
Everyone, you say a word, I say a word, and Liu Ze is almost ashamed of a few cases, whether it is a sigh of emotion in life, it is good to be thirsty for talent, even if it is the anger of Wang Ba, it is also Cao Cao's fart about Liu Ze, he is just a brazen plagiarist - no, it should be a plagiarist, once this poem is spread, Cao Cao will not dare to write it again in the future - Nima's, the festival is shattered. It seems that in this Guanghe year, his face is second-hand thick, is this the so-called "thick black"? Liu Ze smiled secretly in his heart, and on the surface, he had to act as if nothing had happened, and he looked like he was humbly asking for advice.
Lu Zhi smiled and said to Cai Yong: "It is rumored that Bo Ji is very strict in accepting apprentices, and non-sages cannot enter his door, do you think I, a student, are I qualified to be included in your door wall?" β
Cai Yongxi said: "Of course, Runde's talent is unmatched by few people in the world, but is the godbrother really willing to cut his love?" β
Lu Zhi said: "Although Runde is my proud protΓ©gΓ©, but I am only shallow, there is a suspicion of misleading people's children, today I sincerely recommend Runde to Bo Jiao, and I hope that Bo Jiao will look at my thin face, don't refuse." β
Cai Yong was overjoyed, he accepted apprentices strictly, but he just didn't accept mediocre people, but all talented disciples, that teacher didn't want to snatch it, Liu Ze helped the people and this short song, whether it was character or talent, Cai Yong was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to dig Lu Zhi's corner, at this time Lu Zhi actually automatically sent it to the door, Cai Yong couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and he agreed with his mouth full of words.
Liu Ze suddenly realized that he dared to love Lu Zhi to let himself write poems with deep meaning, and it could be regarded as a small exam under Cai's door, but fortunately he took out Cao Cao's proud work, which was an easy pass. Zhang Wen, Huang Wan and others congratulated Cai Yong one after another, saying that Bo Jiao was worth the trip.
"Although my student is in charge of the last business, he is diligent and does not fall, and he is the great-great-grandson of His Excellency Emperor Xiaojing, after King Jing of Zhongshan, the descendant of the imperial family, and he can't insult the reputation of Bo Jiao." Although there is nothing special about the imperial family, after all, several of them here are high-ranking and powerful court officials, but in view of Liu Ze's identity as a businessman, Lu Zhi thinks it is still necessary to bring it up.
Compared with ordinary scholars, the status of the imperial family is more or less noble, just imagine that the wealthy family does not have a shop industry, but if they are also classified among the last merchants, then you are very wrong.
It is conceivable that Cai Yong was even more overjoyed at this time, and he didn't even dare to say it. Lu Zhi turned back to Liu Ze and said: "Gong Cai has already agreed, you can go to Cai's Mansion tomorrow to apprentice, but Gong Cai's subordinates are not as good as me, the rules are very strict, Runde, you have to do it yourself, don't lose your teacher's hope." β
Liu Ze hurriedly said: "Follow the teacher's teachings. β
Huang Wan took the chopsticks and pointed to the plate of red grilled bear's paw on the table and the lightly steamed perch next to it and said: "The ancients could not have both cloud fish and bear's paws. A pun on the word, which means that Liu Ze can worship two great Confucians in the world as teachers at the same time, which is comparable to having both fish and bear's paws.
Lu Zhi laughed, raised his glass and said to you: "Princes, please drink this cup to the fullest, and if you don't get drunk, you won't return." β
When the banquet was held in the middle hall, Pan Feng also arranged for those entourages and followers to eat outside. Originally, the entourage only gave some ordinary food, but Pan Feng didn't know this rule, when he was in Phoenix Valley, even the lord Liu Ze ate with everyone, nothing else, naturally entertained those who were looking for some followers, it was all the same mountain and sea delicacies as in the middle hall.
There are a large number of these followers, although they follow the master everywhere to eat and drink on weekdays, but they have never seen such high-end wine and delicacies at all. After going back, after the addition of these guys, the matter of Lu Mansion entertaining people with delicacies from the mountains and seas spread in Luoyang City, naturally some people were envious and jealous, and even rumors were spread into the palace, and finally the eunuch Zuo Feng openly asked Lu Zhi for bribes, but Liu Ze did not expect.
The wine was exhausted, and the half-drunk people said goodbye one after another, and Cai Yong and Liu Ze made an appointment to leave tomorrow after apprenticing in Cai's mansion. Lu Zhi didn't drink too much today, first, he drank a lot, and second, he had to go out on campus today, and he didn't dare to delay his official business.
After sending everyone away, he said to Liu Ze sternly: "Runde, you come with me." β
Liu Ze was so frightened that he beat the drum in his heart, he took it upon himself to order delicacies from the mountains and seas, and also brought ten tables of blue and white porcelain, which obviously violated Lu Zhi's principle of being a man...... At this point, he had no choice but to follow Lu Zhi into the middle hall with anxiety.
Lu Zhi sighed lightly and said: "Runde, fortunately you are here today, which has given you great face to the teacher. However, how much it costs today is all paid by the teacher. β
When Liu Ze heard that Lu Zhi didn't blame him, he was overjoyed, and he didn't care about how much money he spent on dinner today. "Teacher, you don't have to worry about how much it costs today, these little money are nothing, teacher, you don't blame me for making my own decisions, I have already been grateful."
Lu Zhi glared at him and said, "The teacher knows that you are not short of money, but today I am inviting all my colleagues to a banquet for the teacher, how can I spend your money." β
"A meal doesn't cost a few pennies, the teacher doesn't have to fight, the right should be a piece of the disciple's heart."
Lu Zhi shook his head and said: "No, this is a matter of principle, how can I use my disciple's money to invite guests to dinner, and if the rumors go out, won't it make people laugh." Runde, how much did it cost, report it, and let Yu'er pay it to you in a while. β
Liu Ze was very helpless, but he knew Lu Zhi's temper too well, he said that no, he couldn't pull back eight horses, but he didn't know how much money he spent, so he could only call Pan Feng, who was far away from the hall, to ask.
Pan Feng said directly: "Son, today's banquet costs a total of 2,000 ......."
