Chapter 346: Eclectic Talent Reduction

Lu Ming slowly walked towards Yang Xiuyuan and Fan Guanhai, and at the same time said to the two: "Two scholars, you are also here." ”

The two of them also stood up immediately, only to hear Yang Xiuyuan smile and say, "Lu Ming, you are here too, please take a seat." ”

"You're welcome. ”

Lu Ming immediately sat down on the side, and Fan Guanhai personally poured a glass of wine for Lu Ming, which suddenly startled him: "I can't help it, how dare Lord Lao Yuanjun pour wine for me." ”

Fan Guanhai said: "You are the champion of Liang State, the state Wenhou who was given the title by Liang Jun, or the Zhenguo Gong who is familiar to scholars, is it not enough to pour you wine as an old man and a gentleman of Wenyuan?"

"In the future, if you become a great Confucian, the old man is pouring wine for the Great Confucian, which is a matter of glory to the face. ”

When Lu Ming heard this, he immediately cried and laughed: "Lord Yuanjun is really humorous, since you poured the wine, Xiaosheng should give you the first cup." ”

After speaking, he raised his wine glass and drank it directly.

"Okay! refreshing!", Fan Guanhai said with satisfaction.

Yang Xiuyuan said: "I said Brother Fan, you haven't poured me a glass of wine after knowing each other for so many years, you are a little eccentric." ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

"The prince has arrived!"

A voice suddenly sounded, and Zhuang Yusheng, who was wearing a dragon robe, walked in, and many scholars and officials stood up and saluted.

"The ministers attend the prince. ”

Zhuang Yusheng smiled and said, "Everyone, please take a seat." ”

"Prince Xie. Then they sat down again.

Zhuang Yusheng bowed his hand to everyone and said slowly: "Thanks to the care of your colleagues, I am fortunate to be crowned the prince today, so I set up a banquet to entertain you, first, to thank you for your support, and secondly, I hope that your colleagues will have the opportunity to show their talents in the future and contribute to the people, the court, and the Liang country." ”

"You are all carefully selected talents by me, you are all ambitious like me, gathered together at this moment, I want to tell you that you are the most powerful pillars of the Liang country, you are the people in your hearts, you are carrying heavy responsibilities on your shoulders, what is boiling in your chest is blood, and what you support is the bright future of Liang country!"

Speaking of this, everyone's eyes were full of fighting spirit and excitement.

Zhuang Yusheng raised his glass high, and said in a loud voice: "I salute all my colleagues, I wish the Liang country prosperity and talents, and I am willing to treat all my colleagues with all sincerity, share blessings and difficulties!"

After saying that, he drank it all.

"Good! Share the blessings and difficulties!"

Everyone raised their glasses and drank them all in one fell swoop.

With a "snap", Zhuang Yusheng took the lead in breaking the wine glass, and then everyone smashed the wine glass together.

Drinking is an alliance, and a broken glass is an oath!

"Drink heartily, don't get drunk!"

"Good!"

The crowd was even more merry, and immediately ate a large amount of wine, a large piece of meat, and was very happy.

After three rounds of drinking, many people were almost half drunk.

At this time, Zhuang Yusheng's expression was very sad, but he only drank vigorously.

Lu Ming walked over and said, "The prince seems to have something on his mind?"

"Lu Ming, it's you......"

Zhuang Yusheng's face was flushed, obviously he had drunk a lot of wine, but he was not too drunk, and he was still very sober.

Everyone looked at Zhuang Yusheng together, and the originally happy atmosphere suddenly became a little serious.

"Prince, there are no outsiders here, so it's okay to say that you have something on your mind. Lu Ming said.

"Hey......"

Zhuang Yuchang sighed and said with a wry smile: "I don't want the third brother to be the crown prince because of the ambition of the first assistant Yan Kun wolf, and I am afraid that the people of the Liang Kingdom will be oppressed by these corrupt officials and corrupt officials and suffer, but how do you know how reluctant I am to be the prince in my heart?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, and some people didn't know what they meant.

"My father named me the crown prince, the third brother must hate me to the core, that's right, when the prince is indeed beautiful, he raised his arms above the court, and all officials responded together, but for me, for the position of the prince, for the sake of the Liang country, for the people, but let our brothers kill each other and become a tool for your civil and military officials to fight for power and profit, don't you think it's pathetic, don't you think it's ridiculous!"

After Zhuang Yusheng finished speaking, he drank another glass of wine, and could no longer hide the sadness in his heart, and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Prince ......"

When everyone heard this, their faces became extremely unsightly, and some people sighed, and all of them were sad.

Since ancient times, emperors have been widows, and if you want to become the king of a country, you must first become a widow.

It is conceivable that even if Zhuang Yusheng ascends the throne and becomes the monarch in the future, he will pay for the pain of loneliness without brotherly feelings.

Lu Ming said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please forgive me for saying that although it is the third prince who wants to be the king, the person who wants to harm the Liang country is the first assistant Yan Kun. ”

"How do you say this?", Zhuang Yusheng looked puzzled.

"Yan Kun wants the country of Liang, and the three princes just want to sit on the dragon chair of the monarch, although their goals are not much different in nature, but in fact they are not contradictory, on the contrary, they need to cooperate with each other to achieve their goals. ”

"Just imagine, if the third prince sits on the dragon chair and Yan Kun is in charge of the country, then who between the two of them is more harmful to the Liang State?"

"This ......", Zhuang Yusheng was stunned.

The others also fell into deep thought, unable to figure out Lu Ming's question.

Yang Xiuyuan said: "Sima Yan abolished Wei as emperor, and Yan Kun will definitely follow Sima Yi's example." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhuang Yusheng's face immediately changed.

Lu Ming continued: "The third prince is the tool that Yan Kun uses to realize his ambitions, he is the saddest person, the crown prince, you should let him suddenly wake up and rescue him." ”

"You're right!"

Zhuang Yusheng wiped away his tears of sadness, cheered up and said: "Our enemy is the first assistant Yan Kun, no matter what happens, I must protect the Great Liang River, and I must not fall into the hands of the Yan family!"

"The son can be taught!", Yang Xiuyuan nodded with satisfaction.

"At the prince's banquet tonight, I have a poem for His Highness as a gift for tonight. ”

After Lu Ming finished speaking, he pounced on the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the table and wrote a poem.

Kyushu is angry and thunderous,

It's sad to hear from all the horses.

I advise the Lord of Heaven to shake up,

Eclectic talent reduction.

After the poem is completed, the talent emerges and shines with golden light.

The elephant of the town!

At this time, everyone was accustomed to Lu Ming's poems becoming Zhenguo, and they now paid more attention to the content of the poems.

"What a 'I advise the Lord of Heaven to be vigorous and eclectic to reduce talents', this is exactly the ambition I desire the most!"

Zhuang Yusheng took the case and said with appreciation: "If the Liang Kingdom is full of talents and the whole country is united, how can there be such a struggle in the imperial court? If the civil and military officials do not confuse their consciences because of power, I would rather not be a prince, and I am willing to travel around the world for an ordinary scholar." ”

"But God is not beautiful, our Liang Kingdom just lacks a talent like Xiang Lu Ming!"
