Xuande

Chapter 50 Good boy, did you dig me here?

Everyone knew very well that Liu Bei's ability in this operation was by no means a simple scholar-type official.

Among the ancient literature schools where scholars and officials gather, Liu Bei seems to be an outlier.

Lu Zhi didn't say anything, but was somewhat worried in his heart.

Because although there are many words of praise, it is not without criticism and criticism. Some old scholars in the school of ancient literature think that it is not a good thing for Liu Bei and Yuan Shao to get too close. Take care of him.

Although the ancient literature school and the modern literature school are not clearly separated, there are indeed some serious sectarian views within each other.

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

Most of the hawks within the Ancient Literature School have suffered profound discrimination and blows. They hope that the Ancient Literature School can overthrow the academic hegemony of the Modern Literature School, but their existence is suppressed under the premise of the disaster of the party.

But Lu Zhi can't just pretend that their voices don't exist. The disaster of the party will eventually come to an end, and no one knows how the situation will change by then.

So with some worries, Lu Zhi approached Liu Bei, hoping that Liu Bei could restrain his words and deeds a little bit, so as not to make himself appear too conspicuous.

He is already very famous, if he continues to ostentatiously, there will be no good results.

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

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

"Then why did you..."

"Because the disciple has no other way."

Liu Bei looked at Lu Zhi and said, "My disciples believe that the behavior of transcending ordinary people will certainly cause all kinds of criticism and disasters, but people with lofty ideals will still do it without regret, and they will not regret what they will lose. Feeling sad because to be famous!"

Lu Zhi frowned and looked at Liu Bei.

"Famous? Just to be famous?"

"Teacher, it's not easy for my disciples to get to where they are today. Although my disciples are relatives of the Han family, their family has long been in decline. In order to get to where I am today, I have spent 13 years, 13 years of hard work, and carefulness. today."

Liu Bei smiled, a little sad and helpless.

"The teacher may think that the pursuit of fame and fortune is too utilitarian, but teacher, fame and fortune are born to some people, but students are born with nothing, and Luoyang children are born with things, and Luoyang children stretch out their hands. What can be obtained, disciples have to work hard to get it.

Luoyang's disciples can live in seclusion and be looked after, because they have a family, old disciples, some people promote their fame for them, and some people design and pave the way for them, so that they can go directly to Luoyang Chaotang, but the disciples have nothing. If you don't sell fame and reputation, what can you get for your disciples?

Kong Wenju in Beihai was four years old, and he was famous for giving away pears. His disciples thought that if he was not a descendant of Confucius, who would know?How could he be the only one who did such trivial things?Why is it widely known only when he gave up pears? "

Lu Zhi was speechless.

What Liu Bei said was of course true, and Lu Zhi knew it very well, but he never thought about the impact that such a situation would have on Liu Bei who had finally come to where he is now.

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

With inexplicable emotions, Lu Zhi slowly raised the jug and drank a lot of wine in one breath, only to calm down his mood a little.

After a while, Lu Zhi organized his own language.

"Xuande, as a teacher, I know that you have a lot of confusion in your heart, but you can't let yourself become a slave to power, do you know that? Once you are reduced, you really can't get out."

"Teacher, this disciple knows what he should do."

Liu Bei raised his wine glass to Lu Zhi with a smile: "After all these years, this is how I have walked all the way. No matter when and where, I will never forget that I used to be a street vendor with my mother carrying burdens from home to the county town. Poor boy."

After hearing this, Lu Zhi felt very complicated.

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

There seems to be an insurmountable gap between him and Liu Bei who doesn't know when.

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

The political and academic setbacks in the past can all be resolved, but he doesn't even know how to resolve this frustration.

He likes Liu Bei very much.

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

But when the negative meaning of chasing fame and fortune was also bound to Liu Bei, he felt helpless like never before.

In Liu Bei's view, Lu Zhi's persuasion is a kind of surplus of scholars, a kind of surplus unique to well-born scholars. This kind of surplus can allow them to live at home without doing anything, and they can continue to live. Grow fame.

But this slack does not belong to him.

He does not have the family background of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and does not have the knowledge and reputation of Lu Zhi. Even if he faces criticism and criticism, he must go forward bravely, fight for power and gain, and climb up.

He can't let himself be forgotten, and he can't let himself disappear in the circle of public opinion. Only in this way can he use the remaining time to embark on an unimagined path, but whenever possible, he doesn't want to embark on the path of striving for supremacy in troubled times.

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

He took the invitation letter to Yuan Shao's mansion to attend today's banquet without hesitation, and took out the invitation letter on the spot.

"It's also interesting to say that yesterday, Bei suddenly got an invitation card from Yuan Gong's younger brother Yuan Gonglu, saying that he was invited to visit his mansion as a guest, but he couldn't go because he still had Yuan Gong's banquet today. Will it make Yuan Gonglu feel unhappy?"

When everyone present heard this, they immediately fell silent.

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

Good boy, did you come to me for poaching?

Don't you look at whose younger brother Liu Xuande is?
Dare to hand over a greeting card casually?
Did you put me in your eyes? !
Yuan Shao might not have been so upset if Liu Bei had operated the banquet in the Yuan Mansion for him.

However, after Liu Bei operated the Yuan Mansion banquet for him, he seemed to have become an indispensable core of the team in Yuan Shao's heart. Yuan Shao, who realized Liu Bei's strong organization and planning ability, could no longer accept the fact that Liu Bei was poached by others.

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