"Cao Pi, the secretary of the Prime Minister's Mansion, meet Bai Gong." Cao Pi was in the middle hall of the Cheqi General's Mansion and bowed to Bai Tu.

Nominally, Cao Pi is only a subordinate official of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he naturally has to salute when he sees the general of the Che Cavalry, but it is not a big gift.

Cao Pi ...... Okay, sure enough, the tiger father has no dogs, so take a seat. Bai Tu said with a shelf.

It's a pity that I'm too young to have a beard to brush up.

There were already waiters on the side, bringing Cao Pi, Sima Lang, and "Cao Bang" into their seats......

During this period, Cao Pi was a little curious - the dignified car rode the general's mansion, and he actually sat on a Hu bed and used a Hu table?

In contrast, Sima Lang was calm, even if he saw this "weird" layout, there was nothing unusual, while Cao Bang was curious and looked around, which seemed a little "unruly".

Cao Bang, whose name is Anguo, is the son of Cao De, Cao Cao's nephew, Cao Pi's cousin, and the younger brother of Cao Anmin, who died in Wancheng before, of course...... This is actually not Cao Bang.

It was the identity that Xiahou Juan arranged for himself after pretending to be Cao Pi's subordinate official.

After all, Cao Pi is only thirteen years old, and Xiahou Juan is only fourteen years old, even at this age, the girl seems more mature, but compared to the identity, "Cao Bang" is tender!

Therefore, since he wants to appear as a scribe of the Prime Minister's Mansion and an assistant to Cao Pi, it is reasonable to arrange the origin of a Cao clan.

Now, more and more people are using Hu beds and Hu tables on various occasions......

Of course, in fact, there are some differences with the Hu bed and Hu table, which is the prototype of the "Jiao Chair" in the Song Dynasty, the chair legs are crossed, but it is larger than the Jiao Chair, and the chair in Baitu is more like the square armchair of the Ming Dynasty.

The so-called Hu table is because Hu people use this kind of high table, and the Han people who are used to kneeling will definitely not use such high tables and chairs, so they are called so.

But in fact, Baitu's table is not the result of vulgarity, in short, how comfortable it is.

In other words, when Bai Tu had just crossed over, it would be criticized to use these in his own home, but now...... It is placed in the middle hall in a grand manner, and it is used when drinking and feasting with the ministers of the Che Cavalry General's Mansion, and no one will say anything, and even in Jiangdong and Huainan, many official eunuchs and wealthy families are vying to follow suit.

Only those families of the Dashi clan can't wipe off their face for a while.

And...... Nominally, it's not sitting for comfort!

"Zihuan, this Jiangdong chair is really high, is this the Hu bed? So...... I'm not tired. Cao Bang said in a strange voice.

Others didn't care about the voice, just that Cao Bang, who looked a little weak, was changing his voice.

However, Kong Rong on the side heard Cao Bang's words, and then turned around with a smile and said: "Mr. Xiao doesn't know, this chair is completely different from the Hu bed, in order to embody the 'benevolent love people', that is, the people-oriented, people-oriented purpose, highlighting the people's status of the lover chair." ”

"Yes...... Is that so? Cao Bang looked at Kong Rong a little awkwardly.

Theoretically, Kong Wenju, who "knows Confucius best", should not be able to talk nonsense, but ...... Cao Bangcong felt that this statement was strange.

"Ahem, Anguo, Kong Sai Wine naturally won't lie to you." Cao Pi said on the side.

When he was in Xu Du, Kong Rong had seen Cao Pi, but at that time Cao Pi was still a concubine, and he was still young, and Kong Rong was not impressed by him.

As for Cao Anguo...... It's even less impressive!

"Today is to pick up the wind for Xiao Cao's affairs, and everyone doesn't talk about government affairs." Bai Tu said specially.

Sima Lang got up at this time and saluted: "Bai Gong Rongyu, it is Cao Zhengshi who comes for government affairs, and it is Cao Zihuan who performs the junior ceremony to Bai Gong, why do you say 'Xiao Cao Zhengshi'?" ”

Bai Tu is indeed instinctive, and wants to take advantage of Cao Pi nominally first, but in this regard, Sima Lang is very sensitive, and his words are reasonable.

Bai Tu didn't care when he heard this, and said frankly: "Okay, it's a gaffe, today is to catch the wind for Xiao Cao, and tomorrow I will discuss the matter of Yuan Zheng's remnants with Cao Zheng." ”

Co-author or "Xiao Cao"......

This time, Sima Lang didn't want to say anything, after all, Bai Tu pointed out that today was not a formal occasion, and it was ...... Neither humble nor arrogant, you can't blindly "not be humble", now they are still in the enemy camp, if they are too "hyper", they will be slaughtered, and Bai Tu will only have a damaged reputation.

Sending the Cheqi General's Mansion was undoubtedly a crisis for Cao Pi and Sima Lang - even if it was dangerous, it was also an opportunity.

As long as they can go back safely, and ensure that during this time, Bai Tu will not turn against Cao Cao, especially if they don't hurt Cao Cao's face, their position will also be stable.

Cao Pi can basically sit in the position of heir, and a large part of the Cao family, the Xiahou family, and even the advisers with foreign surnames can be convinced; Sima Lang can also go from being a "favored" and "very developed" newcomer to the Prime Minister's Mansion to the list of core strategists in one fell swoop.

If it's not safe to go back...... Naturally, it was over, so both of them attached great importance to this matter.

Originally, Sima Lang was worried that the banquet would be particular about the future, but he didn't expect it...... Although it has nothing to do with etiquette, what Bai Tu eats is the same as what they eat, and Sima Lang doesn't have much to say.

And...... It smells so good!

Although he sat on the lover's chair and used the Wangmin table, it was still a separate meal system, except for the family banquet, Bai Tu really preferred the separate meal system, and there was nothing wrong with being hygienic.

It is the four famous dishes of the highest specification of the Cheqi General's Mansion - white male meat, braised meat, pork rib soup and steamed wild goldfish!

In the impression of Cao Pi, Xiahou Juan and even Sima Lang before, Jiangdong and Huainan were all in drought, even if it was not a drought, Jiangdong was not as prosperous as the Central Plains.

Especially...... Who is Bai Tu? From the beginning of entering Huainan, especially after entering Jiangdong, no matter how Sima Lang openly or covertly inquired about the folk news, when it came to Bai Gong, no one said anything bad.

It is said that when Bai Tu was in Jinling, he specially had to eat and drink with the victims once a day to warn himself of the people's livelihood - Sima Lang, Cao Pi, and Xiahou Juan really believed it at that time......

Believe in your wickedness!

The imperial chef who received Xu Du with the little emperor has no such skills!

How did Wang Mang come up with a simple character?

As long as there were floods and droughts in the Han Dynasty, he followed the vegetarian diet, and his wife went out dressed like his subordinates, and saw that the poor sold their carriages to help the poor...... Such is called "incorruptible and frugal".

According to the mainstream view of the Han Dynasty, Wang Mang is a big hypocrisy and a true traitor, and some people in later generations believe that Wang Mang's character is not fake, because after he became the emperor, it is said that he has achieved his wish, but it is still as simple as in the past, if the new dynasty does not die, Wang Mang can probably compete for the ranking of the most simple emperor......

Wang Mang is true or false, don't say, at least he really made an appearance, but what about Bai Tu?

This guy is arrogant and lascivious in the house every day, and there are millions of people outside, all saying that he suffers with the people and sings praises for him?

Regarding this "pseudo" word, Wang Mang is not as good as it, right?

Of course, whether it is Cao Pi or Xiahou Juan, or even Sima Lang, although they are slanderous, they have to say that this meal is ...... It smells so good!
