Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Eight: Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy (Monthly Pass)
After hearing Liang Shidu’s inquiry, Chen Kaizhi knew in his heart that his seemingly inconsistency question was actually testing himself.
If the truth is revealed, I will have no trump card.
So Chen Kaizhi only smiled and said, "The officials are very ashamed and cannot be praised by the emperor."
Shidu Liang looked at Chen Kaizhi deeply, smiled and seemed to not care.
He had just entered the Hanlin Academy. Because he was in the Attendant Room, the Minister of State Liang was not in a hurry to arrange Chen Kaizhi to the palace to be on duty. After all, Chen Kaizhi still needs to be familiar with the environment.
However, now that he has become a Hanlin, Chen Kaizhi can serve with his senior brother in the future. The Museum of Literature and History is not far from the Attendant Room. Deng Jian heard that Chen Kaizhi had entered the Attendant Room, but he was speechless and depressed.
This is not jealousy. It is really not a pleasure to be a senior brother and a composer, but it is not even as good as a junior brother.
Chen Kaizhi was very serious about studying the rules in the Hanlin Academy, especially the Hanlin Academy at the Waiting Dian. After entering the palace, he would report the right and what kind of rituals should he perform when he was summoned. This seemingly inadvertent thing actually contains great knowledge.
Many days passed, but people from Jinling arrived in Luoyang.
It turned out that Xiaoyan and Cuihong came to Beijing.
In this era, men and women are different from going out. If there is an urgent matter, men can ride horses. Even if it takes hundreds of miles, it will only take more than ten days to go.
How can a woman ride a horse when she goes out? Not only can she not ride a horse, but she also cannot show up in public, so she can't help but rush to drive a car. But this car is different from a horse. There are many trails where horses can walk, but the car insists on walking around the official road. If the bridges along the way collapse, you have to wait. As the road goes down, a thousand miles of roads, stop and stop for one or two months is fast. If you encounter heavy rain or natural disasters on the way, it is possible to delay for half a year.
These two girls looked at their "new home" carefully. Seeing Chen Kaizhi coming back in his official uniform, they hurriedly came to greet him happily and said, "Have you become an official?"
Chen Kaizhi smiled and said, "Where is an official? Don't say that to the outside world. Have you settled down? This place is a little more cramped. I'll ask someone to clean up a room for you. You have to be wronged and live together first. Also, who do you cook?"
Xiao Cui hurriedly said, "I...I can."
"Very good." Chen Kaizhi said gratefully: "Then please give me."
Although Xiaoyan was serving the concubine of Dongshan County Prince, she was actually trained as a singer since she was a child. She knew how to cook and cook, but she knew nothing about it. She had to say timidly: "Young master, I... I can make some female reds."
Chen Kaizhi encouraged: "It's better to stitch and patch it. In short, let's stay for the time being and live some time. When you move to the new house, you won't be so nervous."
Deng Jian was paid the deposit from the Hanlin Academy and saw Chen Kaizhi and said, "There is a carriage outside, but are you looking for you?"
After saying that, he stared at Xiaoyan and Xiaocui, as if he was afraid of being embarrassed, so he turned his face away.
Chen Kaizhi frowned and said, "Carriage?"
So Chen Kaizhi walked out. It was already dim at this time. In the sunset, a carriage was indeed parked under a locust tree outside.
Seeing that there seemed to be someone in the carriage, Chen Kaizhi stepped forward and said, "Student Chen Kaizhi..."
Before Chen Kaizhi finished speaking, the curtain had rolled open and a figure appeared. When Chen Kaizhi saw it, he immediately looked surprised.
It turned out to be...I...My talented uncle...
Uncle Wucai looked sneaky and looked around, then waved to Chen Kaizhi and said, "Come in and talk."
Chen Kaizhi also looked around and said, "I don't know if the carriage was rented, so I won't let myself pay for it later."
Once you are bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of a rope for ten years.
Chen Kaizhi still obediently entered the carriage. As soon as he entered, he realized that there was a different world in the carriage. All the layings were exquisite. Chen Kaizhi stared at Master Wucai, who was wearing an old robe, and said, "Uncle Master has come to the capital? Why don't you come to the house to sit?"
Uncle Wucai stroked his beard and said, "It's so inconvenient."
Chen Kai was speechless when he was a man of the same name. Damn, he said it as if you were a big shot, and he had many inconveniences.
He said, "I wonder what happened to my mentor?"
"Brother is still like that, what else can I do?" Uncle Wucai seemed a little impatient: "I came to find you secretly. I have something to tell you. I will ask about Jinling later. Kaizhi, do you have any rift with His Highness Beihai Prince?"
Chen Kaizhi thought for a while and said, "Maybe there is, but how do you know, uncle?"
"How come you don't know, what do you think your uncle does? Wherever you go, you will first get a stay in the inn and find out everything about Zi, Chou, Yin and Mao in the capital. This is called knowing yourself and your enemy."
Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but say, "Is the uncle here to fight?"
Uncle Wucai rolled his eyes to Chen Kaizhi without hesitation and snorted coldly: "I can't get it stupid, don't talk too much. Since you have a rift with the Prince of Beihai, don't say everywhere that I am your uncle. Uncle Master plans to visit Prince of Beihai."
"Baihai Prince..." Chen Kaizhi was stunned for a moment: "Where is the Prince of Dongshan? Didn't the uncle become his guest of the curtain? Why..."
Uncle Wucai blushed: "Your Highness of the Prince of Dongshan is a good person."
Chen Kaizhi immediately sneered in his heart, "Good man, are you still coming to find the Prince of Beihai?"
Uncle Wucai covered his heart and said, "To be honest, Uncle Wu is staying next to the Prince of Dongshan and saying things like the sky and the spring every day. He feels guilty. He always feels a little sorry for this child. His conscience is always uneasy. I don't want to stay in Jinling. I follow His Highness Dongshan to eat and drink delicious food in Jinling. But after all, I am not the kind of shameless person, but I still have a conscience in my heart."
Chen Kaizhi's face changed, and his eyes were full of contempt. Damn, uncle, don't be humble, you are the most shameless person I have ever seen.
"So..." Uncle Wucai seemed to have not noticed Chen Kaizhi's expression, took a breath, seemed to remember the guy Chen Dexing, and then became relaxed again, and said again: "The Prince of Beihai ordered people to go to Jinling to invite him again and again, and insisted on coming to this capital. Uncle Wu was a little hesitant at first, but gradually he thought it clear that it would be better to come to the capital, so that the uncle could use his skills in the capital."
Chen Kaizhi suddenly thought of something at this moment. I remember hearing from Yang Ye last time that there was an expert in Jinling, would it be really...
Just thinking about this, Chen Kaizhi's face became very strange.
Mr. Wucai shrugged and said, "The child of the Prince of Dongshan is so good. At least when he comes here, the uncle has no burden. Besides, staying by the Prince of Dongshan is the same as the Prince of Beihai. The uncle will come to the door tomorrow. He has been left with the Prince of Beihai for many days. I think he is anxious now."
Chen Kaizhi was stunned for a moment, but became worried: "This Prince of Beihai is not a good person and is unruly. Uncle Master, how good is living peacefully? Why do you have to do this?"
Uncle Wucai stroked his beard and said, "I am already a famous figure in the world. Is it true that I want to get out if I want to get out? What is a little prince of Beihai? I have never seen such a great world? Will Uncle Master tell you that this is the capital, Uncle Master has many friends? Do you know that, the Grand Secretary of the Tianren Pavilion, Yang Biao, the Grand Secretary of the Tianren Pavilion, talked and laughed with him. I heard that your article has also been on the Tianren List. It seems that this may be a favor from Uncle Master."
Chen Kaizhi was stunned again and then said, "Uncle Master also recognizes Mr. Yang?"
"Why, do you recognize it too?" Uncle Wucai suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Chen Kaizhi suspiciously.
Chen Kaizhi said ashamed: "I have met him a few times and talked to him at night, but why haven't I heard him talk about uncle, uncle, next time I go to Baiyun Peak, I have to go and ask."
Master Wucai's face suddenly turned red, but his lips were trembling with anger, and said, "A gentleman's friendship is as light as water. If you talk about it, you will be teased. Originally, people know that if you turn to him to ask your Master, will you embarrass Brother Yang? Don't mention these messy things. What Master Master hates the most is that you rely on your Master's friends who have identities to cheat on him and use his name to deceive me. It's really outrageous. We make friends, but we don't care about our actions."
Seeing that Uncle Wucai reacted so fiercely, Chen Kaizhi had to smile bitterly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, no mention."
Master Wucai's face relaxed a little, and he turned to say, "Anyway, Master Wu came to see you secretly. No matter what, you are also a disciple of your brother. Oh, is there another Deng Jian? I remember that he is also in the capital, and I am his uncle. Unfortunately, Master Wu has something to do, but he can't see him anymore, and he can't let him welcome me. Why not do this? You should always have filial piety, otherwise Master Wu will feel very uncomfortable if you know that you are not feeling well. You can go and find your senior brother, get a member of the thirty or fifty taels of silver, just treat it as a discounted meal for this dust feast, okay?"
Chen Kaizhi was dumbfounded. He had known this for a long time. After so long, you are still as unkind as you are.
So Chen Kaizhi said dumbly: "This...is good, but... Master Uncle, Senior Brother is about to get married, so you will be invited to have a drink at that time."
When he heard that Deng Jian was about to get married, Master Wucai's face changed again, his face turned pale and pale: "I think about it carefully. It's better not to know about Master Master here. Don't mention this matter."
Chen Kaizhi nodded repeatedly, looked relieved and said, "Uncle Master came to the capital just to go to the Beihai County Prince's Mansion and be a guest of the Muslim? Uncle Master... In my opinion, you still..."
"Needless to say, don't mention these things, the uncle has his own thoughts."
