Chapter 434 The Talk Begins

Huaminglou now has three Michelin stars in Chang'an, and reservations are required for dinners, because too many people come here to eat every day.

But Huaminglou has an unspoken rule!

Huaminglou occasionally closes its doors from time to time, and the specific reason... so many times, the people of Chang'an have already understood!

That is, Marquis Shiping wants to treat guests, and they are still distinguished guests, and there must be a big event!
However, there are not many such incidents, which also reassures the people of Chang'an.

After all, in Chang'an, you can't find a restaurant like Huaminglou!
After several renovations, Huaminglou is no longer what it used to be as a small restaurant!

Covering an area of ​​nearly a hundred acres of space, the decoration is antique but somewhat magnificent but gorgeous and restrained.Well-trained maids, thoughtful hospitality, carefully prepared various vegetables, etc...

Huaminglou is still closed today, but the carriage parked at the door is not a simple person!

This time is different from the last time, because these are all patriarch-level figures, so the location is chosen in the independent private room on the second floor!

And the maids have long been replaced by servants brought by Liuyi, and there are many servants guarding everywhere in the restaurant.

Obviously, it looks like it's about to talk about big things!

Several patriarchs walked into the Huaming Building hand in hand, pointing at the decoration of the Huaming Building, people who didn't know thought it was a few old men who came to play!

Ding Yi came from behind, and when he arrived, everyone was already there.Among these people, apart from the few principals, only Zheng Yi and Ding Yi, the patriarchs of the Zheng family, have ever met.And that Wang Ziyu invited by Ding Yi!

These Patriarchs all have their own bodyguards, standing behind each Patriarch.

Suddenly, a familiar face appeared in Ding's eyes, that person was standing behind Li Xiaogong, but because he was wearing a hat, he couldn't see clearly.

Ding Yi, who was puzzled in his heart, walked to the main seat, and said with a straight voice: "Ding Yi has met all the Patriarchs, and the few of you came to visit together, boy, this flowery building is full of splendor!"

However... Several patriarchs all looked like they were smiling. Seeing this, Zheng Yi said with a smile: "Marquis Shi Ping is being polite. Marquis Shi Ping was assassinated two days ago. Because of the entanglement of affairs, we can only let Hao My son went to visit. Seeing you today, it seems that Marquis Shiping has recovered! Congratulations, congratulations!"

This group was also familiar with Zheng Yi and himself, and Ding Yi also maliciously speculated about Zheng Yi's actions, but in the end they all came to the conclusion that he had no reason to do so.

Therefore, Ding Yi thinks that Zheng Yi is a sensible person, a person who sees the general direction of the future!

"Hahaha, thank you Patriarch Zheng for your concern, Ding Yi is already much better!" Ding Yi thanked with a smile, being able to stand up and make a rescue at this time showed that Zheng Yi really wanted to make friends with him.Otherwise, they would not have said such things in front of the other four Patriarchs.

"Marquis Shiping is young and promising, I admire it! But it is a good thing for young people to be aggressive, but it is not good to rely on one's own ability to be domineering. It is easy to be targeted!"

Ding Yi followed the sound and saw that the speaker was the old man sitting in front of Cui Bencun!

"I think this is Patriarch Cui of Qinghe! I don't agree with Patriarch Cui's words. Young people have to be aggressive, or they will only be depressed and sad when they are old!"

Patriarch Cui's complexion changed, and he snorted coldly: "Hmph, it's better to be famous than to meet each other. Such a sharp mouth!"

"Marquis Shi Ping did such a thing at such a young age, it is understandable that some violent actions. Patriarch Cui is an octogenarian, don't care about a child!" Just as Patriarch Cui was about to say something, the old man in front of Li Zebo spoke.

It's just that Ding Yi didn't intervene this time, and quietly watched these old bastards talking with each other.

There is no need to compete with them for lip service.

Seeing the noise getting louder and louder, Zheng Yi hastily said to stop: "Everyone, we are here for the railway, why bother to make such a fuss! Why don't you let Marquis Shi Ping tell me what the railway is all about?" To be honest, after Hao'er finished talking to me, I still couldn't understand what the railway was all about!"

As soon as this remark came out, the few people did not argue, and watched the new tea after the rain carefully with their teacups in their cups.

Ding Yi looked at these old bastards with disdain. If he can persuade your principal to invite you here, my lord, I have already figured out how to deal with you bastards!
"No hurry, no hurry, before we talk about the railway, I still have a few things I want to talk to you about!"

A few veterans still have that look, sitting upright and not panicking at all!

Zheng Yi was like a peacemaker, asking: "Marquis Shiping, what do you want to talk about?"

Wang Ziyu and Wang Zhonghe's uncles and nephews didn't speak at this time, not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't.

Neither of them is the head of the family, and the Wang family is now weak, so it is the head of the family who is talking at the moment.If they speak rashly, those veterans will definitely spread the flames of war to themselves.

Although they want to get benefits from Ding Yi, it doesn't mean they will advance and retreat together, let alone help Ding Yi attract firepower!

Ding Yi said: "Now the Tang Dynasty is thriving, and everything is developing in a good direction. You are all seniors, and after thinking about it, you know that some necessary conditions are necessary to establish an orderly society."

As soon as these words came out, the court fell silent, the guard behind Li Xiaogong narrowed his eyes and looked at Ding Yi in the chief seat, thinking about what he was going to say.

Before they could reply, Ding Yi continued: "An orderly society must require many conditions. Among these conditions, knowledge obviously plays an important role. I wonder what you think about the culture of Tang Dynasty today?"

"Or the degree of cultural popularity?"

The sound of drinking water in the arena also stopped, and all eyes were on Ding Yi.

After a long time, Cui Patriarch of Qinghe said: "What does Marquis Shiping mean by this? We all know that I am a Confucian... Oh, no! It is said that Marquis Shiping once said that he is not a child of Confucianism? I heard that Marquis Shiping is proficient in ingenuity, Could it be that Mohist disciple?"

The others looked like they were watching a play, obviously they had known Ding Yi for a long time.Now we are waiting to see how Ding Yi will deal with Patriarch Cui. This is very important to them and will test the ability of a partner!
"Mohism?" Ding Yi shook his head and said, "No, no, no! I said long ago that what I study is all about science. Mohism, Confucianism, Legalism... and even other schools of thought have little to do with my science. But it all matters!"

"Hmph! Arrogance! What kind of science can be compared with Confucianism!" This time it was not the Cui family of Qinghe, but the Cui family of Boling!

These people didn't pay attention to this matter before, that's because this kind of thing is very common!

There are always some people with high self-esteem who separate themselves from Confucianism and advocate the way they have learned.

In the end, they were all drowned in the torrent of history by Confucianism!
