Everyone knows very well in their hearts that Liu Bei's ability to operate this time is by no means a simple scholar-type official.

In the ancient literature school where scholar-type officials gathered, Liu Bei seemed to be an outlier.

Lu Zhi didn't say anything, but he was a little worried in his heart.

Because although there are many words of praise, it is not without criticism and criticism, there are some old scholars within the ancient literature school who think that it is not a good thing for Liu Bei and Yuan Shao to get too close, and feel that Liu Bei is young and can't suppress the desire in his heart, and Lu Zhi needs to take care of him more.

Although there is no clear distinction between the ancient literary school and the modern literary school, there are indeed some serious opinions within each other.

They are far more hostile to each other than most, and they are not satisfied with the state of both sides.

Most of the hawkish forces within these schools of ancient literature have suffered profound discrimination and blows, and it is hoped that the school of ancient literature can overthrow the academic hegemony of the school of modern literature, but their existence is suppressed under the premise of the disaster of the party.

But Lu Zhi can't just assume that their voices don't exist, the disaster of the party will end after all, and no one knows how the situation will change at that time.

So with some worries, Lu Zhi found Liu Bei, hoping that Liu Bei could restrain his words and deeds a little and not make himself look too eye-catching.

He is already very famous, and if he continues to swagger, it will not end too well.

In this regard, Liu Bei was only silent for a while.

"What the teacher is worried about, the disciples know, and they know it clearly."

"Then why are you ......?"

"Because the disciple has no other way."

Liu Bei looked at Lu Zhi and said, "The disciple thinks that the behavior of detached people will certainly cause all kinds of criticism and calamities, but people with lofty ideals will still do this, and they will not feel regretful, nor will they feel sad about what they are about to lose, because they want to become famous!" ”

Lu Zhi frowned and looked at Liu Bei.

"Fame? Is it just for fame? ”

"Teacher, it is not easy for the disciple to get to this day, although the disciple is a relative of the Han family, but the family has long been defeated, in order to get to this day, the disciple has spent thirteen years, thirteen years of dedication, carefulness, to get to today."

Liu Bei smiled, a little sad and helpless.

"The teacher may think that the disciple's pursuit of fame and fortune is too utilitarian, but the teacher, fame and fortune are born with some people, and the disciple is born with nothing.

The children of Luoyang can live in seclusion and raise hope, because they have families, protégés and former officials, some people promote their fame, and some people design and pave the way for them, so that they can go directly to the Luoyang court, and the disciples have nothing, if they don't sell their fame, what can the disciples get?

Beihai Kong Wenju was four years old, and he was famous because of the pear, and the disciple thought that if he was not a disciple of the Kong family and a descendant of the Confucian saint, who would know? How could he be the only one who had done such trivial things? Why is it that only he gave the pear to be widely known? “

Lu Zhi was speechless about this.

Of course, what Liu Bei said was true, Lu Zhi knew it very well in his heart, but he never thought about what impact such a situation would have on Liu Bei, who had finally come to this point.

At this moment, Lu Zhi suddenly found that he had never really understood his proud disciple, and he had never really understood his life journey from the beginning.

With inexplicable emotions, Lu Zhi slowly raised the wine jug and drank a lot of wine in one go, so that his mood calmed down a little.

After a while, Lu Zhi organized his own language.

"Xuande, I know that you have a lot of confusion in your heart, but you can't let yourself become a slave of power, you know? Once you fall, you really can't get out. ”

"Teacher, the disciple knows what to do."

Liu Bei smiled and raised his glass to Lu Zhi: "After all, for so many years, the disciple has come all the way, no matter when and where, the disciple will never forget that he was a poor boy who carried the burden from home to the county seat with his mother to set up stalls." ”

When Lu Zhi heard this, his mood was very complicated.

He wanted to say something, but he felt that no matter how he said it, he couldn't get to the point.

It seems that there is an insurmountable gap between him and Liu Bei.

As a teacher, looking at his disciples, Lu Zhi had such a sad and frustrated mood for the first time.

In the past, political and academic frustration could be dissolved, but he didn't even know how to dissipate this frustration.

He likes Liu Bei very much.

I like his talent, his intelligence and hard work, his courage and tenacity, his indomitable momentum and firm belief.

But when the negative word of chasing fame and fortune was also bound to Liu Bei, he felt unprecedented helplessness.

In Liu Bei's view, Lu Zhi's dissuasion was a kind of scholar's surplus, a kind of surplus unique to well-born scholars, which allowed them to live while lying at home and doing nothing, and they could continue to grow their fame.

But this surplus does not belong to him.

He does not have the family background of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and does not have Lu Zhi's knowledge and fame, even if he faces criticism and criticism, he must move forward bravely, fight for power and profit, and climb up.

He can't let himself be forgotten, he can't let himself disappear into the circle of public opinion, so that he can strive to use the remaining time to get out of an unimagined road, but whenever there is a little possibility, he doesn't want to embark on the road of competing for power in troubled times.

Fame! Fame!

For this reason, when Liu Bei received an invitation letter from Yuan Shu, he saw an opportunity.

Without hesitation, he went to Yuan Shao's mansion to attend today's banquet with the invitation, and took out the invitation on the spot.

"It's also interesting, yesterday, Bei suddenly got an invitation from Yuan Gong's brother Yuan Highway, saying that he invited Bei to his mansion as a guest, and Bei remembered that there was a banquet for Yuan Gong today, so he couldn't go, but I don't know if this would make Yuan Highway feel unhappy?"

When everyone present heard this, they immediately fell silent.

When Yuan Shao, who was sitting at the top, heard this, his face suddenly turned cold, and his heart was full of unhappiness.

Good boy, digging into the foot of the wall to dig into me?

Don't you look at whose little brother Liu Xuande is?

Do you dare to hand over the prayer post casually?

Did you take me into account?!

If Liu Bei operated the Yuan Mansion banquet for him, Yuan Shao might not be so unhappy.

But after Liu Bei operated the Yuan Mansion banquet for him, he seemed to have become an indispensable team core in Yuan Shao's heart, and Yuan Shao, who realized Liu Bei's strong organizational and planning skills, could no longer accept Liu Bei's poaching by others.

Especially this person is still Yuan Shu, who has always been at odds with him.
