He Chou was a bit upset. He had three brothers and a large family. The family was relatively harmonious and they did not separate and live alone. After a while, the whole family gathered together, but He Junyao dispersed them one by one, leaving only Next, He Erlang came in the same hurry.
While Old Man He was talking intermittently, the three brothers were staring at each other and didn't quite understand what was going on. However, He San, who had been slapped several times, felt wronged, and it was none of his business.
He Da and He Er couldn't help but comfort him, and asked He San to quickly get some food and drinks. The three brothers would then call those apprentices whom Grandpa loved over and have a few drinks with Grandpa. Nothing would happen. It's all gone.
He Chou has gained many disciples in Jin over the years, and he has also begun to write books. Don't be too proud of such a life in his later years.
Now that the writing has been drawn up, it will take two years to complete some beginnings and tails, and publish it according to Li Po's original promise. The publication will be as big as Li Po's territory.
This is simply the best affirmation of a person's achievements. Since ancient times, there are no emperors who can pave the way for their ministers like this.
Most emperors actually don’t want people like Confucius and Mencius to appear under their rule, which would be a bit bad for the emperor.
Of course, when He Chou wrote a book, he definitely did not expect to be the first of his kind as Li Po said at the beginning. If he had the strength, he could overthrow the founder Lu Ban and think about it.
The cake was a bit big, and He Chou was excited about it at the time, but when he thought about it later, he thought it was unreliable, so his goal was actually to let people in the world and later generations know that there was a He Chou who came to this world and walked away for a long time. suffered, and left something behind.
In fact, it is what literati call leaving a name in history.
In addition, he also accepted a lot of disciples. If it were not approved by the King of Han himself, it would be very taboo? Of course, people like Sun Simiao and He Chou would be fine.
When he returned to Chang'an, He Chou brought back several talented apprentices. They were all young and eager to learn, so they followed their teacher to Chang'an.
And He Chou's many disciples are now scattered in the army, the Ministry of Industry and other places. In time, without He Chou's own convening, these people can gather together and form a faction of their own.
Of course? That's what happened in the future? Could He Chou see the two talking about that day? And the apprentices he taught and his sons are actually senior brothers? They are still very close these days.
While Old Man He was making a fuss, Wang Ajiu, the deacon of the inner house outside, ran in at a trot. He only glanced at the situation inside the room, then leaned into He Da's ear and said: "The King of Han has arrived, and Liu Erlang is leading him here? Are you there?" look……"
He Da stood up in shock? "Really..."
Of course it's true? Wang Ajiu hasn't lived enough? To fool the master in this kind of matter is to seek death.
He Da immediately became anxious, "Why don't you report early... Hurry up? Erlang, Sanlang, the King of Han is here. You take people to greet you. Ah Jiu, go prepare the food and drinks. Be careful and don't let anyone mess with you, otherwise everyone will Life is not guaranteed.”
After rushing people to prepare, he turned around and said, "Master, the King of Han is here. I will accompany you to welcome him."
When the King of Han came here, he must be looking for He Chou himself. Others in his family did not have that weight. The King of Han had not yet proclaimed himself emperor, but he was already an emperor in the eyes of everyone.
Now that I suddenly arrived at the courtier's house and failed to greet him outside the house, it was already a sin. I don't know what the reason was, but looking at my grandpa like this, the situation was not good.
He Da couldn't help but feel very worried.
He Chou was still losing his temper, "What do you want me to welcome you? I pretend to be fake on weekdays, but when it's critical, you think I'm in the way... Insufficiency and conspiracy..."
While muttering, the old man got up and straightened his robe, not forgetting to get angry at his son, "What are you doing here? Why don't you straighten it for me? I'll meet you soon. If you're rude, I'll deal with you."
He Da didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He hung around his father for a long time, adjusting his clothes, and then followed his grandfather out to greet him.
Li Po didn't bring anyone else with him, he just followed a group of guards and entered the He family's private residence, so he didn't go quickly, mainly to give the He family time to prepare.
Naturally, he was going to the main reception hall of the He family, not the place where old man He played his temper. When he arrived, He Chou and his sons were already there to welcome him. Seeing his arrival, he immediately called him His Highness the King of Han.
They all saluted.
Li Po, as before, hurriedly stepped forward, held He Chou's arm, and laughed as loudly as Cheng Dabeard, "Mr. He, please forgive me. You have been waiting here for a long time. Come on."
Go in and talk, the sun is still bright, don’t get too hot."
Everyone subconsciously looked up at the sky. The night was getting darker and smoke was everywhere. How could there be any sun?
He Dahe Er had long heard from his younger brother how the King of Han treated his grandpa. He didn't believe it at first. But now that he saw it with his own eyes, he realized it was true. He was surprised and grateful at the same time.
Moreover, it was also the first time for them to see His Highness the King of Han. After taking a look at him secretly, they couldn't help but praise him. The True Wise Master also...
Most of Li Po's attention was focused on He Chou. He took a closer look at the old man's face and couldn't help being startled, "Mr. He, who is this...who made you unhappy? Tell me and I will definitely deal with it."
He stripped me of my skin and bones just to vent my anger on you."
As I said this, I actually guessed it, and it was a bit funny. I thought it was a sin that the old man actually came back and cried.
He Chou was so excited and angry that he had not dissipated. After seeing Li Po, within a few words, the hair fell smoothly and there was a smile on his face.
He pretended to hold Han Wang's arm and walked into the hall together, "There's nothing wrong. I just feel that I'm old and my eyes and ears are not good enough. Some things are kept hidden from others. Thinking about it like this, it's better to go home and concentrate on writing without asking.
foreign affairs."
Li Po laughed again and again and stopped pretending, "It turned out to be for that matter. Let me just say, besides He Gong himself, who else dares to make you angry? I'm here to explain it to you.
He Gong's suspicion."
He Chou couldn't resist at all, so he changed the topic first, introduced his sons to Li Po, and asked them to prepare the food and wine, leaving only his eldest son to accompany him.
Li Po had also been busy all day and was really a little tired. He sat on the couch and sighed happily, thinking in his mind whether the banquet in He's house was delicious. If it was not delicious, he would not be in a good mood. He
The old man was afraid that he would cry again.
He Chou naturally knew that the King of Han was famous for his good food, and was also worried about whether the food at his house would suit the King of Han's taste. However, he could only give a few words of advice, and Li Po was in such a hurry that he had no time to prepare anything.
"Looking at the king's face, it does look a little bad. The king should pay attention to his health. I am in charge of the Imperial Medical Office. Why don't you find two people with superb medical skills to take care of the king?"
Li Po shook his head, "Hey, everyone is paying attention now. As long as an imperial physician appears by his side, there will be a lot of rumors the next day. Maybe we will hear that the King of Han is not going to die soon. What you always came up with is a bad idea.
You will definitely be fined a drink."
He Chou didn't feel any embarrassment at all, he stroked his beard and smiled, "This is what I admire about your Majesty. He is thoughtful and clear-minded about the world. He can always think about what others think and take advantage of everyone's selfish interests. He knows people well and does their job well without omitting any omissions.
It has accomplished so much today.”
Li Po was very comfortable with the flattery.
While he was talking, the food and wine were already served. Li Po rarely ate at other people's homes. One reason was that the food was not to his taste, and the other reason was that it was troublesome.
Both food and wine had to go through two stages before they could be served. Not only had the food been touched, but it was also almost cold. It was very inconvenient for others and themselves, and safety was not guaranteed. Therefore, the king was wandering around freely, which was pure ignorance.
It hurts others and hurts oneself, and it is not good for the rule.
Li Po has not yet proclaimed himself emperor, and Chang'an City is also a dangerous place for him. Visiting He Chou will really give He Chou face.
To be honest, the food at He Chou's house was not very delicious. Li Po got tired of it after just a few bites. It was typical Kansai food, very rough.
Fortunately, there was a delicious sour soup on the table. It was probably made by the chef to relieve everyone's boredom. The combination was not bad. Li Po picked the good one and praised it, so as not to affect his mood.
He Chou was old and couldn't drink too much. After drinking two drinks with Li Po, he asked his son to take his place.
Li Polai didn't want to get Mr. He drunk. It was enough. The small talk was almost over and he finally got down to business.
"The matter of the country's title has been roughly decided..."
As soon as these words were spoken, He Chou cheered up and glanced sideways at his son. He Da immediately resigned.
"You have probably heard about it. I didn't let you know during the discussion because I was afraid that you would be anxious. If we quarreled with someone in court, your body wouldn't be able to withstand it."
He Chou was dissatisfied with this explanation, but he had nothing to say. After all, he was probably the only one who could ask the King of Han to come over specifically to explain.
So he just muttered, "I am the Minister of Taichang Temple, and it is my responsibility to determine the country's name and the era name..."
Li Po nodded repeatedly, as if he agreed very much, "This is true. I regretted it later. You didn't see it at the time, and everyone protested. If you are always around, you will definitely be able to help me with the fight.
We're going to have a confrontation, don't you think?"
He Chou was old, and his reactions could not keep up with this cunning man's, so he readily agreed: "That's natural..."
Li Po immediately put his hands on his hands and smiled, "Let me tell you, the matter of the national title will definitely get the full support of Mr. He..."
At this point, he made a longing statement and said: "The Tang Dynasty... Li Yuan occupied it for a while, but it doesn't matter. It sounds grand. If the gods don't deceive me, wait until I bring peace to the world and let the Turks and Goguryeo rule."
Entering my soil, the name of the Tang Dynasty will surely shine through the ages because of me."
He Chou was a little confused. At this point, what else could he say? He felt embarrassed to retort to the previous sentence.
