Chapter 52 Farewell at Changting Pavilion

 Most of the poems in the early Han Dynasty have the word "xi". Later generations explained that this word has no specific meaning and is used as a modal particle. However, in the Han Dynasty, this word "xi" represents a form transformed from song lyrics and can be sung.

, but unfortunately in later generations, there is no specific record of what key and rhythm it was sung in.

The Chinese farming civilization has gone through too many hardships, and many things have been lost in the long river of history...

So Cai Yan thinks that one of the reasons why Fei Qian's poems are so novel is that there is no word "xi", which makes it impossible for her to judge whether to use Chu rhyme, Yue rhyme, or Zhou rhyme?

No matter how they were paired together, they didn't seem to fit together very well, which made her a little distressed as she claimed to be quite good at music - this junior fellow student didn't even mark it out, so how could anyone guess?

However, Cai Yan still understood the meaning of these two sentences. Overall, although the intention was good, but——

Hum, do you think I'm a dead tree or a sunken boat?

Is most of the Yellow River still clear?

The turbidity should be Jingshui!

This junior brother should read more books and find time to talk to his father. If this knowledge spreads, the Cai family will be disgraced...

Let’s make a list of books that Junior Brother Fei Qian needs to study——

"Chu Ci" needs to be added, um, "Yuefu" also needs to be added, the rhyme is wrong, and if you don't like to use the word "Xi", then at least you should be familiar with Ban Gu Ban Meng Jian's works... "White Tiger Tongyi"

"In addition, "Liangdu Fu" is also very well written. Although it is a fu, forget it, let's add it too. By the way, there is also "Han Shu"...

There are also some problems with Junior Brother Fei Qian’s calligraphy, which is tangible but not spiritual. He still needs to practice more...

Let me think carefully about what temporary post to find for him...

*********************

Fei Qian was still congratulating himself that Cai Yong had not solved the knot in his mind these past two days and had no intention of assigning him any homework, when he received a long list of must-read books assigned by Senior Sister Cai Yan as his acting teacher.

The stele sticker that Shan He must copy...

It was such a long string that Fei Qian's eyes were dizzy.

Cai Yan, Cai Zhaoji, I didn’t offend you!

If Fei Qian had known that the random poems he wrote would bring him back so much homework, he probably wouldn't have written those two sentences even if I beat him to death.

But the only good thing is that these tasks can be done slowly and not in a hurry, otherwise Fei Qian will really feel like jumping into the Jingshui River.

That day he was drinking and practicing martial arts at Lu Bu's house. Before he came back, luckily Lu Bu and Zhang Liao helped him eliminate most of his muscle soreness with Lu Bu's secret ointment on the spot. Otherwise, let alone walking the next day, it would have been difficult to get out of bed, and it might even have been possible.

Even feeding myself is a problem.

After all, Fei Qian's original body was relatively thin and he had not exercised yet.

As for the tragic scene of applying ointment, Fei Qian selectively decided to forget about it.

Although Fei Qian understood that Lu Bu was willing to take out this ointment that was said to be made from the fat of the alpha wolf on the prairie and mixed with herbs to help him relieve muscle soreness in his body, it showed that Lu Bu really favored Fei Qian, but

The problem is - this guy Lu Bu didn't even discuss it first...

Otherwise, we can at least find a few maids...

Fei Qian still felt a little guilty.

In fact, Fei Qian didn't even think about it. It would take such a thick ointment to penetrate into the muscles without a lot of strength. Moreover, this kind of treatment must be done in one go. Otherwise, if the treatment breaks down halfway, the muscles of the body will suffer even more.

If Lu Bu hadn't liked Fei Qian, had a bad temper, and helped him find a new weapon, he wouldn't have gone to such trouble. When Lu Bu practiced martial arts by himself, he had to endure it little by little...

However, martial arts training must be put aside first. Now Fei Qian has to rush to the east of the city to prepare before his master Cai Yong.

Master Liu Hong is about to rush to Shanyang County to take office.

Although the two old men had already drank one-on-one wine before, when Liu Hong was about to leave, Cai Yong still had to come to give him a gift. Of course, Fei Qian, his disciple, was coming.

Otherwise this would be extremely rude.

About ten miles outside Luoyang City, there are some small pavilions built along the official road. In addition to being used as a place to rest, another important purpose of these pavilions is as a place to say goodbye.

When Fei Qian arrived in advance in a hired carriage, he looked around and didn't see Cai Yong, and he was relieved. Fortunately, he was not late. It would have been rude to be late.

Fei Qian asked the coachman to help him find a pavilion with a better view and a cleaner place to set up the wine and meat he had bought. Then he stood quietly on the left side of the road with his hands tied, waiting for the arrival of Cai Yong and Liu Hong.

After a while, he saw a very simple carriage approaching, and Cai Yong walked out of the carriage. Seeing the drinks prepared by Fei Qian in the pavilion, Cai Yong nodded and said nothing, just like Fei Qian.

He stood quietly on the roadside and waited.

If someone is not familiar with it, who would know that a court servant, a great writer, is just like an ordinary scholar, eating dust by the roadside and waiting for his friends?

Not long after, a convoy of three carriages and about a dozen guards was seen coming slowly from a distance. The prefect's scepter was hung high on the front carriage.

Liu Hong is here.

It's not that Liu Hong wants to show off, but it's the court's rules. Officials who travel on official business must hang a staff to show their status. Violators will be punished as disrespectful. Like Cai Yong and Fei Qian, it's a private matter, so they can wear casual clothes.

However, since Liu Hong took office, he was traveling on official business, so he was not only accompanied by a scepter but also an escort appointed by the imperial court.

When the motorcade arrived, Liu Hong got off the carriage and walked into the pavilion hand in hand with Cai Yong.

The guard of Liu Hong's motorcade had already experienced a lot of farewells, so he found an open space on the side of the road to park his carriage and horses without any need to say hello and waited.

However, what these guards did not expect was that Fei Qian not only prepared Cai Yong's farewell drinks for Liu Hong, but Fei Qian also prepared the portions of these guards in advance. At this time, he brought the hired coachman to serve the guards one by one.

These guards were quite surprised and thanked them profusely.

Liu Hong saw Fei Qian's actions, pointed at Cai Yong and said, "Look, this guy's mind is really delicate."

"Zi Yuan is indeed friendly and considerate in his dealings with others." Cai Yong agreed, but today he is not here to praise Fei Qian, but to see you off, "Yuan Zhuo, we have only been together for a short time, but we have to part ways again.

We say goodbye now, I don’t know when we will see each other again.”

The two old men are quite old.

If it's okay to be young, after all, the future is long, but now that both of them have gray hair, no one can say whether they will still meet each other.

After Fei Qian settled the guards, he quickly returned to the pavilion and saw two old men, Cai Yong and Liu Hong, holding hands with tears in their eyes...
