Just when the officials were composing poems for fun, a county guard came to Yuan Qi with a wine glass in his hand and said: "Jiuwen Zhou Mu has two sons of Dragon and Tiger under his knees, and the second son Yuan Qi is both civil and military, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, officials from all over the country gather together, why not, please ask General Huwei to write a poem to set off the good scene, how about it?"

Gongsun Ruyun attached to Yuan Qi's ear and said softly: "This person is Cui Shou, the Taishou of Zhuo County, originally a person from Qingzhou, quite talented, good at internal affairs, and avoided disaster in Youzhou because of the war. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info looked at Cui Shou, and Yuan Qi found that he was a beautiful man, with sparse eyebrows, four feet long, and a high voice. Raising the wine glass filled with white water in his hand, Yuan Qi stood up and said to Cui Shou: "It turned out to be Brother Cui Shou, who has been admired for a long time, is still young, and is not used to drinking. "According to this world practice, twelve years is a round, and people within a round have fellowship, if there is no blood relationship or friendship, they can be called brothers, so Yuan Qi called Cui Shou Brother Cui Shou.

Cui Shou smiled and raised his wine glass, and took a drink with Yuan Qi. Then he said: "Please also ask General Huwei to make another good work, and listen to him." Hearing Cui Shou's words, all the officials in the hall shifted their eyes to Yuan Qi's body, waiting for Yuan Qi's masterpiece. After all, the rumors are false, seeing is believing, although the name of Yuan Qi's civil and military skills has been heard by everyone, but after all, no one has seen Yuan Qi compose poems with their own eyes, right?

Yuan Qi groaned slightly, and then said with a smile: "Today, a certain and his family teacher boarded the Youzhou Terrace, and I felt quite emotional. In the past, Jiang Taigong was appointed by the two generations of monarchs of the Zhou Dynasty and achieved great achievements; King Yan Zhao courteously treated Le Yi with courtesy, so that he broke through the seventy-two cities of Qi State and became famous through the ages; Yan Prince Dan knew that Jing Ke was killed, and Jing Keshi died as a confidant, and he assassinated the King of Qin when he was poor. On the other hand, in our dynasty, now the relatives and eunuchs are fighting endlessly, and the border barbarians have invaded for many years, which is really the time of life and death for the country. However, those who are in the high hall, do not think of Kuang Fu Sheji to thank the emperor, and do not think about political clarity to calm the people, so that many people with lofty ideals in the chest and the abdomen have no way to serve the country, and they are very sad in their hearts. ”

Everyone in the hall listened to Yuan Qi's emotion, and they all felt the same way, and they sighed for a while, and even more loyal to the country couldn't help beating their chests and tears. Yuan Qi secretly observed Cui Shou's expression, and sure enough, he saw a trace of sadness flashing on Cui Shou's face. The words he said before were not only emotional, but more importantly, Yuan Qi wanted to use these words to dig up Cui Shou, an internal minister. Yuan Qi could see that Cui Shou always had the intention of being loyal to the country in his heart, and now Cui Shou was serving under his father. I'm completely close to the water, and I got the moon first.

After pondering for a moment, Yuan Qi said in a low voice: "I didn't see the ancients before, and I didn't see the ancients after. ”

Listening to Yuan Qi's whispering, the civilian officials present were all touched, some bowed their heads in contemplation, and some shook their heads in taste. Even those generals who were born in martial arts and did not understand literature and ink understood Yuan Qi's simple and ingenious song.

There was silence for a moment, and someone took the lead in shouting, "Wonderful, wonderful!" and then a voice of admiration rang out in the hall and courtyard at the same time. The hundreds of officials present were full of praise for Yuan Qi's "Youzhou Taiwan Song".

Cui Shou was also shocked at the moment. You must know that Cui Shou is not only an internal minister, but also a celebrity, the so-called celebrity, is a poet and song that has been passed down in the world, can be called a celebrity. In Cui Shou's eyes, Yuan Qi, a Youzhou Taiwan song, is neither asymmetrical nor rhyming in terms of words, but the kind of artistic conception contained in the seemingly ordinary words is fascinating. The deeper I think about it, the more memorable it becomes.

After a while, putting away the shock in his heart, Cui Shou bent down and saluted Yuan Qi: "Shou heard General Huwei's masterpiece today, it was an eye-opener, admire! Admire!" It stands to reason that Cui Shou is the Taishou of Zhuojun, Yuan Qi is the General Huwei, Taishou is the official position of the fourth product in this world, and the General Huwei of Yuan Qi is the official position of the sixth product, although the two are in two different systems of the local and the army, but Cui Shou's official position is still higher than that of Yuan Qi. There is no reason to bow down to Yuan Qi at all, but Cui Shou just did that, which also shows that Cui Shou is a broad-minded person, and when he sees that he is more knowledgeable than himself, he can bend down and salute the other party regardless of his official position.

Cui Shou can do this, but Yuan Qi can't handle it calmly. First, Yuan Qi is younger than Cui Shou; second, Cui Shou's official position is higher than his own; the most important thing is that Yuan Qi has the idea of accepting Cui Shou for his own use, so it is possible to leave a proud and arrogant image on the other party? So, Yuan Qi hurriedly took two steps forward, bent down to return the salute to Cui Shou, and said: "Brother Cui Shou is broken. ”

Cui Shou straightened up, looked at Yuan Qi, stroked his beard and said: "There is only one stone in the world, and General Huwei has eight buckets alone!" Yuan Qi was stunned when he heard this, and Gongsun Ruyun on the side stood up with a laugh, walked in front of the two, and said loudly: "General Huwei can indeed be called a talented eight buckets, and I admire it." The three of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time, a sense of sympathy for each other.

The banquet continued, and the local Taishou, Xiang and county commanders reported to Yuan Ying one by one the situation in Youzhou in the past year, Yuan Ying listened carefully to everyone's story, and from time to time put forward targeted opinions, or issued some orders. It lasted for two full hours before the officials from all over the country completed the process of reporting on their work, and Yuan Ying also had a general direction for the governance of various parts of Youzhou.

After that, Yuan Ying raised his glass and said to hundreds of officials: "Colleagues, Ben Jiang is not strong enough to drink, and he can't toast you one by one, Ben Jiang will bargain here, and toast everyone with a cup and drink!" Because Yuan Ying has been guarding the border for many years, he has always called himself Ben General. There is nothing wrong with calling himself like this, and Yuan Ying himself also serves as the general of Suibian.

Everyone raised their glasses and congratulated: "Congratulations to the state pastor for his health—"

When everyone finished drinking together, Yuan Ying put down the wine glass and said: "After a while, let my son Yuan Qi Dai Ben toast you one by one, and I hope you will come and return happy!" Everyone sat down with a smile when they heard this.

Yuan Qi hurriedly walked to the middle of the hall, clasped his fists and saluted all sides: "Qi is still young, and he can't drink alcohol, so he will replace the wine with tea and toast to the adults." After speaking, he picked up his wine glass, poured a glass of white water, and walked to Master Fuyaozi first. Yuan Qi's actions caused another round of praise-

"That old man is General Yuan's master, Fu Yaozi, I can't imagine that General Yuan is not only both civil and military, but also respects his teacher so much!"

"The young man is ambitious, but he is not arrogant or impatient, he knows etiquette, respects the teacher, it is rare, it is rare!"

"Sure enough, it's a tiger father without a dog, Yuan Youzhou has a son like this, what more can the husband ask for?"

"Giving birth to a child should be like a Yuan Huwei!"

Looking at Yuan Qi's actions, Cui Shou's eyes lit up with a brilliance, and he secretly thought in his heart: Yuan Huwei is different, but unfortunately he is still young, I am observing him for a few years, if he still has such a demeanor when he is an adult, the country is expected to prosper.

A group of officials directly under Yuan Ying were also whispering, Shi Jia looked at Yan Yi and said: "I am right, Yuan Huwei is a person who values love and righteousness, and my vision cannot be wrong." Yan Yi glanced at Shi Jia and said lightly: "General Yuan spared your life, it is General Yuan's generosity, and it has nothing to do with your vision." The people on the side also nodded frequently in agreement. Yan Yi glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "It seems that you recognize the state pastor as the master?" Shi Jia was stunned for a moment and said, "Aren't you thinking this way?" Before Yan Yi could speak, someone next to him said: "In fact, he has long recognized the state pastor in his heart, otherwise, how could he claim to be a subordinate? You just didn't see it." When Shi Jia heard this, he turned his head to look at Yan Yi, who was smiling and silent, and suddenly realized: "Good Yan Yi, you are so bitter to hide it!"

Not to mention that Yan Yi, Shi Jia and the others were talking in a whisper, at this moment, Yuan Qi had already finished toasting Fuyaozi, he poured a glass of white water again, turned around and walked in front of Gongsun Ruyun, and toasted Gongsun Ruyun. After that, they saluted one by one, and in the meantime, naturally a number of officials praised Yuan Qi, and Yuan Qi was all smiling and humble in return. In his gestures, he actually began to take on a bit of the demeanor of a monarch. made Cui Shou, who had been secretly observing Yuanqi, even more emotional.

After the banquet, Yuan Qi arranged for people to prepare resting rooms for hundreds of officials, because there were too many officials who came, it was impossible for so many people to live in the state pastor's mansion, so only a few people such as Gongsun Ruyun and Cui Shou stayed in the state pastor's mansion, and the officials with poor status were arranged by Yuan Qi to live in the inn in the city of Jixian County, and for a while, the inns in the city were all full. Yuan Qi specially instructed to arrange the inn Tian Mou, and all the expenses should be recorded in the private account of the state governor's mansion, and the government treasury money should not be used. This time, it has won praise from many people. Fortunately, now Qingfeng is making golden silk leaves, which has begun to take shape, and the sales are also very good. Yuan Qi's grandfather, Mr. Yi, even brought several carts of golden silk leaves to Jiangdong to sell, and I heard that the income was also very objective. In that rich place in Jiangdong, the golden silk leaf was sold for the same amount of gold. It is precisely because of the income brought by the golden silk leaf that Yuan Qi has the capital to record the food and accommodation expenses of all officials in his own account.

At night, Cui Shou knelt in a guest room in the governor's mansion, reading a book by lighting a candle. A slight knock on the door interrupted Cui Shou's Yaxing. Cui Shou walked to the door, and after opening the door, he saw Yuan Qi standing alone outside the door.
