"Howling empty city sparrows, what is the urgency of the body."

"Ben and the wren group, not with the Feng royal family."

"Good! All right!! ”

In a luxurious mansion in Luoyang, eight strange-shaped scholars sat around, looked at the poems in front of them, and praised them one after another.

I saw a beautiful man who was nearly eight feet tall, standing up drunk, and said loudly: "Your Majesty is so literate!" It is a poor sparrow, it is difficult to maintain life, and it can only be with the birds, how dare it be with the phoenix? ”

"You people are shameless phoenixes!"

Everyone in front of him laughed, but a young man with a bright face frowned and did not speak.

Ruan Ji rolled his eyes at the drunk man and didn't speak.

Then another young man of short stature stood up and shouted to the drunken man:

"Uncle Ji's night!"

"If you are the empty city finch, why do you want to be with us phoenixes? It can be seen that you are also the phoenix in His Majesty's mouth! ”

"You're the phoenix! Your whole clan is a phoenix! ”

"I'm a bird... No, I'm an empty sparrow..."

The man was drunk, and his preface did not match the afterword, and this tall and strong man was Ji Kang, a famous man today.

Ji Kang was born in a big family, Ji Kang's father Ji Zhao, an official to the secretary of the imperial history, and his brother Ji Xi, who joined the army as a talent in his early years, was deeply favored by the Sima family.

He himself married the granddaughter of Pei Wang Cao Lin, the lord of Changle Pavilion, as his wife, so he was worshiped by Langzhong. Cao Lin is Cao Pi's younger brother, so Ji Kang is a contemporary of Cao Chao. Because he married the clan, Ji Kang became Langzhong, which was an official position that followed the emperor.

But this man is extremely sloppy, and despite his outstanding appearance, he never cleans himself up, nor does he work well, and drinks and has fun all day long.

The short man continued: "Come, come, no matter what this drunk, this guy doesn't know how to taste wine, but only knows how to drink cows, even if he finds a herd of pigs, he can eat with him!" Ignore it! ”

The crowd laughed again.

The short man is called Liu Ling, he is short and ordinary, only more than six feet tall, and he is out of place in the crowd, he is also addicted to alcohol, drunk and dreaming of death, and he is already a famous man in the world at a young age, and is known as the world's first wine taster.

"Carry the four yellow mouths, drink milk without tasting enough~~"

"The food monarch has a surplus of chaff, and he is often afraid of black kites!"

Liu Ling read two more sentences, and said to Ji Kang with a smile: "You guys have heard clearly, you can't eat enough every day, you eat chaff and dregs, and you're afraid of black kites chasing you!" This phoenix is not the same as a black kite! ”

Ji Kang waved his hand and shouted, "What's the difference? It's just a black kite that calls itself a phoenix, and while the phoenix has not grown up, it will peck at this phoenix and call it a finch! ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an instant silence in the mansion.

A rough-looking, hard-looking man frowned, and said to the young man on the side, "Uncle is drunk at night, send him to the inner room to rest." ”

This man's name is Shantao, compared to others, his background is low, and his father, Shanyao, is just a county order.

Shantao was bereaved at an early age, his family was poor, and he was a man who was outstanding and cautious when he was young.

And that young man, his appearance is seventy percent similar to Ruan Ji, his name is Ruan Xian, and he is Ruan Ji's nephew.

After Ruan Xian sent the drunken ghost Ji Kang to the inner room, everyone continued to talk about the empty city sparrow.

"Shame on the risk, shame on the camp."

"The destiny of heaven has a fixed end, and it is impossible to keep what you want."

Liu Ling thought about it, shook her head and said, "It's a pity, my status is humble, and I can't drink with Your Majesty!" ”

At this point, everyone was silent again.

Shame on the steepness of the Taihang Mountain, even more ashamed to grab the corn of the overturned car, everything has the destiny to decide, so live in peace.

This is simply His Majesty's heartfelt words, but isn't it a true portrayal of these celebrities?

Then I saw a man with a noble body get up and say, "If it weren't for the last line, this poem would have been burned." ”

This person is called Wang Rong.

This is even more heavyweight, he was born in Langya Wang, is the son of Liangzhou Thorn Wang Hun, since he was young, he is beautiful and beautiful, long in Qing talk, known for his incisive evaluation and recognition, among the people present, he is the closest to the Sima family.

Hearing his words, Ruan Ji gave him another roll of the eye.

The one who had not spoken for a long time said, "In that case, then remove the last sentence and send it everywhere!" Courage for the sparrows! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

This bearded, tall, and sharp-eyed man is not the same as the temperament of these drunkards, his name is Lu An.

Dongping Lu was born, his father was Jizhou Mu Lu Zhao, he was strong, different from others, he often thought about how to govern the world and relieve the people.

Wang Rong pointed at Lu An and shouted, "Zhong Yi!! It's all said that we won't talk about state affairs here! ”

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, the last Xiang Xiu also hurriedly got up to persuade peace.

Xiang Xiu was born in Hanoi Xiang, and the article was very well written.

And these people are the most famous celebrities and scholars group today, Ruan Ji, Ji Kang, Shan Tao, Liu Ling, Wang Rong, Xiang Xiu, Ruan Xian, known as the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest in the history books.

Well, Lu An, who has been friends with Ji Kang for a long time, failed to make the list.

They are typical of the confused scholars of the Wei and Jin dynasties, unable to realize their ambitions, dissatisfied with the cruel rule of the Sima family, and desperate for real life, so they avoided seclusion, dispersed, drunk, and flouted etiquette....

"The Empty City Sparrow... O empty city sparrow! ”

Lu An looked very dissatisfied.

An indescribable emotion was transmitted among the crowd, and Liu Ling sighed, "Gentlemen, since we are talking about poetry, don't talk about other things, we won't be the phoenix, the black kite, or the bird..."

"So what do we do?"

Lu An asked rhetorically.

"We eat wine."

Shantao replied.

Lu An smiled bitterly, picked up the wine in front of him, and drank it all.

Liu Ling tried to liven up the atmosphere again and talked about other articles and poems.

And Wang Rong took the opportunity to sit next to Ruan Ji.

"Heizong, it's a good thing to serve as a free horseman, but don't bring out the things in the palace anymore, even if it's poetry..."

He whispered: "In the past few days, in Luoyang, but it is not quiet at all, first some people slandered General Zhengnan, and now, this poem is even more popular, many people say that the general is a black kite, and the minister of the court is a phoenix who flatters the black kite... Biqiu is a wren..."

"These remarks even spread to Taixue."

"You know what those young men are like."

"This has already caused dissatisfaction among many ministers."

"A poem actually offended the Manchu ministers and generals... Don't do that again. ”

Ruan Ji threw away a roll of his eyes again and said nothing.

Wang Rong smiled bitterly, "If you hate it, you will hate it, I am also for the good of everyone, General Zhengxi has already issued an order, and the phoenix is not allowed to be reproduced in the poems in the future... We delve into poetry, so why get involved in these things? ”

Everyone present seemed to quickly forget the unpleasantness of Fang Cai and once again devoted themselves to the conversation.

They began to comment on the world's celebrities and talk about poetry, but they didn't talk about any major things.

Liu Ling said with a smile: "There were eight chefs in the Han Dynasty, and there are eight of us today, which can be described as endlessly talented!" ”

Lu An continued: "I don't know what future generations will say?" Is it eight drunk? Or the Eight Sages? ”

Everyone talked and laughed, ending the good life of the day in the carnival.

When Ruan Ji walked home drunk, Lu An helped him.

"What kind of person is the emperor?"

Lu An asked cautiously.

Ruan Ji glanced at him, "It's a thirteen or fourteen-year-old man." ”

"Nonsense... I'm asking him how he behaves. ”

"Cunning."

"Good for you, thief! Dare to insult the Son of Heaven? ”

On weekdays, Lu An is closest to Ji Kang and Shantao, and he doesn't have much contact with the rest of the people, but at this moment, he is entangled in Ruan Ji's side and even jokes.

Ruan Ji thought for a moment, then said; "It's a male lord who knows how to forbear, and he was born at the wrong time."

The smile on Lu An's face froze a little, he wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say more.

Ruan Ji said to himself: "We are not birds, wrens, eagles, phoenixes, kites, but owls, ominous, and we can't see the light." ”

"Lu Jun doesn't need to ask too much, just drink."

"Then why did Ruan Jun spread the sound of sparrows to the whole of Luoyang?"

Lu An asked again.

Ruan Ji was silent for a moment, then looked up and laughed.

"This owl is also noisy!!"
