Chapter five hundred and seventy-fifth recommend you to be a sacrificial wine
Zhao Chen originally wanted to go back to Wannian County after breakfast at his house.
As a result, Li Ke walked in and told him that Gao Shilian was visiting.
Gao Shilian, Zhao Chen is not familiar with him.
Today, Zhao Chen also saved a lot of money because of Gao Shilian's words.
Walking to the door, Gao Shilian, with his hands behind his back, was looking at the couplets at the door, nodding from time to time.
"Mr. Gao!" Zhao Chen and Gao Shilian shouted.
Gao Shilian's eyes were still on the couplet at the door, and he asked with a smile: "Did you write this couplet?"
"Yes, it's just something written casually. It doesn't count. Mr. Gao, come in and sit down and have a sip of tea." Zhao Chen smiled and extended his hand to invite.
"No rush." Gao Shilian waved his hand and did not enter the house directly. His eyes still fell on these two couplets.
"The body is like a wandering cloud, the shadow of the moon and the light of the stream are proof of one's nature; the mind is like the flowing water, the sound of pines and the color of bamboo are forgotten together."
"Your power is comparable to that of the calligraphers of the past. If you hadn't said it yourself, I wouldn't have believed it."
"Compared with you, Chu Suiliang, Kong Yingda and others are really far behind." Gao Shilian stroked his gray beard and seemed very satisfied with the handwriting on the couplet.
Zhao Chen was already used to such compliments.
If someone said that his handwriting was ugly, that would make Zhao Chen feel strange.
"I think this word is just average. What's so good about it?" Li Ke stuck his head out and looked at the handwriting on the couplet with some disdain.
"What can you see, kid? When you have Zhao Chen's ability, you won't say such words!" Gao Shilian scolded.
He even dared to scold Li Chengqian directly, so Li Ke was naturally no different.
"Each of these twenty-two characters has its own style, like a dragon flying, a phoenix mingling, a tiger surging..."
"There is no one in the world whose handwriting can be better than mine." Gao Shilian sighed, with a trace of shame on his face.
He found that after living for so long, he was buried up to his neck in loess, but it was not as good as a seventeen-year-old boy.
But thinking of Zhao Chen's identity, Gao Shilian felt much better.
With Zhao Chen's various abilities, if he inherits the position of emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the future, he will definitely govern better than the current emperor.
However, why does this couplet mean that it is aloof from the world?
"Zhao Chen, I would like to recommend you to be the Imperial Academy's sacrificial wine minister, what do you think?" Gao Shilian said suddenly.
"Hiss..." When Li Ke heard this, his knee hit the door, and he sucked in the cold air from the pain.
These eyes were fixed on Gao Shilian.
Very strange!
Gao Shilian and Zhao Chen met for the first time today.
Moreover, Gao Shilian and Zhao Chen were enemies in the court before.
Although Gao Shilian helped Zhao Chen in the end, they didn't have such a close relationship.
The Imperial Academy's wine offering is on the same level as the Six Ministers.
It's strange to recommend Zhao Chen to serve as the imperial minister.
"Thank you Mr. Gao for your kindness, but Zhao Chen's heart is in Wannian County and he really has no other thoughts." Zhao Chen shook his head with a smile.
He is also strange.
He was not familiar with Gao Shilian, so he instinctively resisted Gao Shilian's approach.
"Zhao Chen, you don't want to have more power. The Imperial College offers wine, but compared to you, the magistrate of Wanxian County..."
"Hey, okay, Mr. Gao, I have no interest in high-ranking officials and high salaries. My biggest wish is to sleep until I wake up naturally and count money until my hands cramp."
"What rights are you talking about? What's the point of not taking them with you in life or death?"
"If Mr. Gao wants to drink tea, Zhao Chen welcomes him. If he is working as a lobbyist for Lao Li Tou, then there is no need." Zhao Chen and Gao Shilian handed over.
Hearing Zhao Chen call the emperor Lao Litou, Gao Shilian also understood that Zhao Chen had always treated the emperor as a friend.
No wonder Zhao Chen felt that the emperor was taking advantage of him as soon as the emperor mentioned his relationship with Zhao Chen.
"Haha, I'm just here to drink tea today. We'll talk about other things later!" Gao Shilian laughed loudly and walked into the Zhao Mansion with his hands behind his back.
…
"Vice President Wei, at this hour, the court meeting should be over."
"Sir, you should send someone back to deliver a message!"
It was already noon in the academy. Wei Zheng and a group of academy students had been sitting here all morning, and no one left first.
"Chang'an is fifty miles away from here, how can it be so fast?"
"The less news there is, the less important it is, otherwise Li Ke would have sent someone long ago." Wei Zheng comforted everyone.
In fact, I am not sure either.
Maybe Zhao Chen has been captured.
After all, Chang'an City is fifty miles away from here, so it can't be reached in just one or two feet.
"Sister-in-law has just asked someone to come over and ask questions. If there is no news, I guess she will go directly to Chang'an City!" Cheng Chumo said.
But he was already ready to go.
It is estimated that as soon as Li Ruoshuang makes a move, he may follow him.
"Wait a little longer. You don't know Zhao Chen's abilities. If he can't solve the problem, what can you do?" Wei Zheng advised.
He now wished he could put on a pair of wings and fly directly to Chang'an to see what the situation was like.
"Doctor Wei, Zhao Chen hasn't come back yet, I'm going to Chang'an City first!" Li Ruoshuang came out wearing a red dress, with frost between her brows.
Holding a blue sword in his hand, the cold air is overwhelming.
"Miss Ruoshuang, please wait a moment, maybe Zhao Chen has sent someone to deliver the news!" Wei Zheng stood up quickly and shouted.
He was worried that by then, things on Zhao Chen's side would not be over, and Li Ruoshuang would fall into trouble again.
How could Li Ruoshuang listen to Wei Zheng's advice?
She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, so she didn't have the energy to wait here.
"Excuse me, Doctor Wei, please wait here while Ruoshuang goes to Chang'an City." Li Ruoshuang handed over his hand.
"Sister-in-law, I'll go with you!" Cheng Chumo stood up and picked up the weapon that had been prepared next to him.
"I'll go too!" Qin Huaiyu also stood up immediately.
"And me!" Luo Tong took the spear.
The others were hesitant.
They dare not go. Making trouble in Chang'an City is tantamount to rebellion.
They all have families and families, but they don't dare to be so reckless.
"Okay, come with me!" Li Ruoshuang nodded.
"Oh, don't go!" Wei Zheng shouted.
But no one listened to him.
"Vice President Wei, Sir, here comes the news!" There was a sound of horse hooves outside, and then Chang Sun Chong was seen running into the academy.
…
"You have very good taste. You have the style of an ancient gentleman."
"I finally know why you wrote those two sentences on the door!"
In the Zhao Mansion, Gao Shilian was wandering in Zhao Chen's yard with his hands behind his back, nodding his head.
He actually envied Zhao Chen's life.
It is indeed rare to find such a quiet place in a busy place like Pingkangfang.
"Mr. Gao, let's have a cup of tea." Zhao Chen and Gao Shilian shouted.
Gao Shilian then turned around and walked slowly with Zhao Chen.
"I heard from Your Majesty that the tea you brewed is extremely fragrant. I don't think so, but I am lucky enough to try it today." Gao Shilian sat down and said with a smile.
