Chapter 54: Yang Hu Favoritism
The young Confucius looked at the "uncle" Fang Jishi, and there was a pleading look in his eyes.
The personal guard from earlier stepped forward again, ready to drive the young Confucius away. It can be seen that the great god Fang Cornerstone was present, as if he was very familiar with it, so he didn't dare to take action, and stood there, watching the changes.
"You go to the Feast Hall first! I'll recommend it for you! Fang Jishi nodded at the young Confucius and said.
The young Confucius's eyes suddenly swelled with gratitude, nodded his head, and recommended himself: "I know the etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty, and I can be a ceremonial official." When Lu Gong receives VIPs, it can be held with a variety of ceremonies......"
Ji Pingzi interrupted: "I know, you go to the dining hall first, I will talk to the great god for a while, and I will see you alone later." ”
And then! He said to the personal guard who was already waiting on the side: "Lead him over there and treat him like a sergeant." ”
"Yes!" The personal guard answered, and made a "please go" gesture to the young Confucius.
The young Confucius had no choice but to follow behind the personal guard and go to the banquet hall.
"Please!" Ji Pingzi transformed into a very excited and honored smiling face, and greeted Fang Jishi.
Fang Jishi was also not polite, and after answering, he walked parallel to Ji Pingzi.
Ji Pingzi led Fang Jishi to another private room, did not go to the VIP hall, and received him alone in the most respectful and cordial way.
Fang Jishi took this opportunity to talk about the life experience and ability of the young Confucius.
"Oh?" Ji Pingzi was a little incredulous and asked, "He, a Confucian who plays a trumpet, is so talented?" No! He? It's amazing that he was able to be self-taught in such a difficult environment! ”
"That's it! It is! When I first heard about it, I couldn't believe it! This is not? I visited it myself last time, and it was really like that. ”
Fang Jishi didn't know how talented the young Confucius was, and he just helped him blow it at this time. Although he talked with the young Confucius for most of the last time, he only listened to the other party's words. But! This is not without a spectrum, after all! He later became a saint.
So! Blow! Blow it if you can!
"Just?" Ji Pingzi said with an embarrassed face: "He hasn't done the coronation ceremony yet?" A man who is not yet an adult, what can I arrange for him to do? If the name is not right, it is not good? ”
"This?" Fang Jishi is also embarrassed.
Oh, yes? Although you are talented, you are not of legal age, are you? You haven't been crowned yet, have you? What kind of work can you be assigned to do?
Under the care of Ji Pingzi and Fang Jishi, the guard was much more polite to the young Confucius.
When the others saw that it was the master's personal guard who came in with a large young man who had not been crowned, no one dared to speak. guessed that it was arranged by the master Ji Pingzi, and his expression was naturally much more polite.
Entering the dining hall, the young Confucius really met a few acquaintances. When he was a Confucian scholar in Qufu City, several people with scholarly status knew him. When he saw that it was an acquaintance, he went up and saluted him, and began to talk to him.
In fact! The first-class people in Qufu City, the capital of Lu State, all knew him, or had seen him, or had heard of him. Because! When he was a Confucian scholar, he was very famous in the team. He not only knows funeral etiquette, but he is also diligent and versatile. It's just that! There were many people who looked down on him and pretended not to know him when they saw him.
As a scholar, he disdained to speak to Confucianism.
Scholar! Look down on Confucianism.
I'm a taxi! It's the nobility. You are a Confucian scholar, and you are a low-class professional citizen who handles funerals for others.
After a while, it was time for the official feast.
Under the arrangement of the personnel of the Ji Mansion, each person is in place, and there is a case in front of each person. All the people with sergeant status are sitting in danger, waiting for the service staff to serve the food.
The young Confucius, under the greeting of the waiter, was also placed in a position and treated like everyone else.
After a while, the food was served. The staff of the Ji Mansion waited in a line outside the hall with trays, ready to be served.
That's what it is, it's to let these people eat and drink for nothing, so! Lots of dishes. After the prescribed dishes came up, Ji Pingzi came over to give a "speech". At the same time, I will bring Fang Jishi and others to observe the atmosphere of the scene and see what dishes and what places are used by the diners.
The "feast" system set by Zhou Gong Jidan is for the purpose of selecting and recommending talents. Outcome! This system has become a mere formality, and has become a simple "eat and drink for nothing". The talent selection and recommendation system has long been abandoned, and it has become a way to find a good job. There is no way, you are a genius, and no one hangs you.
After a while, the dishes were all ready, and I waited for Ji Pingzi to come over and give a speech. The young Confucius only heard about the dishes he had when he was a feaster, and where had he really seen them. When he saw the roast suckling pig, he really had that drooling feeling.
Suckling piglets, that is, piglets, piglets that have just been born. It's not that big, and it weighs about two pounds. Of course! You can't eat it alone. It's not that you're left alone, but! Cut as much as you eat with a knife. If you can't finish eating, you will have it left, and then the master will take it back and reward it to the next person to eat.
Again! There are a lot of dishes, and you will be full after eating them all in one bite.
The first dishes are the prescribed dishes, and new dishes will continue to be added in the future. I couldn't put it on the table, so I took the finished dishes and the dishes that went first to make room for it.
At this time, Yang Hu, a retainer of the Ji family, came over.
Seeing Yang Hu coming, everyone held their breath and looked at him. Yang Hu is here, which means that Ji Pingzi is coming soon. So! There was a sense of excitement in everyone. In any case, those who eat and drink for nothing must respect others and cheer for others.
Don't think that you really eat and drink for nothing, people invite you to eat because you come to cheer him on. If you don't cheer, people will naturally be unhappy, and maybe they will find an opportunity to clean you up in the future.
Only a fool really thinks it's eating and drinking for nothing!
After Yang Hu came to the Feast Hall, he didn't speak, but his eyes swept around. Soon! His eyes fell on the young Confucius.
"Where!" One of the guards pointed at Yang Hu with a flattering gesture of his hand.
Everyone looked in the direction of the guard's finger, and realized that it was none other than Kongqiu. It's the young Confucius who hasn't been crowned yet! No! It's Confucianism! The Confucian Confucius who played the trumpet to help people deal with funerals.
Yang Hu pulled down his face, walked quickly to the young Confucius, and shouted in a low voice: "You come with me!" ”
The young Confucius was stunned, but he still got up and followed Yang Hu.
He sensed that this Yang Tiger was very bad to him.
Yang Hu has treated him badly not once or twice, but many times. Once, Yang Hu personally went to his house and asked him for trouble. The reason is very simple, it is because he looks like Yang Hu.
But today, the young Confucius thinks there should be nothing? Because! It was Ji Pingzi who asked him to wait for him in the dining hall. Furthermore! Uncle (Fang Jishi) recommended him in front of Ji Pingzi again. So! The young Confucius didn't care.
I thought: Yang Hu is unhappy, it should be that he is jealous of me. He shouted for me to go, maybe it was Dr. Ji Pingzi who asked him to shout. Quite possibly? It's for him to give me a job......
