At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

So Lu Zhi looks so masculine is also very reasonable.

Standing with Lu Zhi, Cai Yong, who was originally a beautiful man and an old man of literature and art, was simply weak.

It feels like Lu Zhi is the real man, and he smells of male hormones all over his body. Compared with that, Cai Yong really lacks masculinity.

To make an inappropriate analogy, it's like the comparison between a Korean sissy and a martial arts superstar, except that both have beards.

"Hahahahahaha! Bo Xie, long time no see!"

When Lu Zhi opened his mouth, he could hear it clearly from a distance.

Looking at his posture again, he took great strides, walked like flying, and walked over a long distance and a few steps, and the bottom plate was extremely stable, showing the solid foundation of martial arts and excellent physical fitness.

He really deserves to be a figure who has led troops to fight for a long time to suppress the rebellion. This is the real general.

"Zi Gan, it's been a long time since you saw me, you are getting stronger and stronger, hahaha!"

Lu Zhi and Cai Yong are friendly and have a private friendship.

I heard that Cai Yong was going to lead the team to proofread the scriptures. He also suggested that he should join the project. As a result, at that stall, a rebellion broke out in Lujiang, and Lu Zhi had to go south again to become the prefect.

Now that the rebellion in Lujiang County is over, Lu Weiwei has been liberated, and he can finally come back and do what he likes.

The two chatted cordially for a while, before Lu Zhicai turned his attention to Guo Peng, who had been standing by the side motionless without saying a word.

"Yesterday, when I was arranging the family affairs at home, I heard from my family that Luoyang had a prodigy named Guo Peng, who often walked around Bo Jie. Could it be you?"

Guo Peng immediately bowed and saluted.

"Student Yingchuan Guo Peng, meet Lu Langjun! The student is just a little clever and dare not claim to be a supernatural power."

The voice was loud and steady, without a hint of rudeness.

"It's really you."

Lu Zhi looked at Guo Peng with interest, and then showed a little surprise, but the surprise flashed by and quickly turned to a smile.

"I heard from my family that a five-character poem has been sung very quickly in Luoyang recently. My family also read this five-character poem to me. After listening to it, I am deeply touched, Bo Zhe, your disciple is not ordinary."

Lu Zhi held Cai Yong's hand and laughed.

"Don't laugh, Zi Gan, he is not my disciple yet, I allow him to proofread books with me in Dongguan, he has an excellent memory, and he never forgets it. He can remember many things that we forget and miss. Proofreading books now requires him, and other than that, it’s not a big deal.”

Cai Yong waved his hand, as if "this kid has nothing to brag about".

"Since it's no big deal, why did you bring me here in such a hurry? Isn't it to show me that you have a master?"

"Hahaha, Zi Gan, you really know how to joke, I'm here in a hurry, you don't tell me to stand here, don't even let me drink a glass of water?"

Cai Yong laughed and joked, and Lu Zhi patted his head and laughed.

"I'm so happy, I almost forgot, haha, come come, Guo Lang, you come too!"

Lu Zhi greeted Cai Yong and Guo Peng into the living room, and got some fruit in the living room to entertain Cai Yong and Guo Peng.

Then Guo Peng listened to the two of them talking about some past events, telling interesting stories about their past acquaintances, exchanging ideas about what to do in the near future, and talking about official business and the current situation. Listen to what they have to say.

After about an hour, the conversation between the two was almost over, and the topic was led to Guo Peng.

"Bo Jie, is Guo Lang really not your student? I heard that you appreciate him very much and take good care of him."

Lu Zhi asked while eating a piece of cake.

Seeing Cai Yong looking at him, Guo Peng immediately straightened his posture, sitting upright.

"It's not that I don't want to, but I think that someone else is more suitable to be his teacher than me."

Both Lu Zhi and Guo Peng felt very curious.

"Bo Xie, who is this person you're talking about?"

Cai Yong looked at Lu Zhi and smiled slightly.

"This person is far away in the sky, close in front of me. His surname is Lu, his name is Zhizhi, and he is Zigan."

Lu Zhi raised his eyebrows.

Guo Peng was full of surprises.

What's happening here?

"Boy, are you serious?"

Lu Zhi looked at Cai Yong and asked.

"Seriously, Zi Gan, you are more suitable to be Guo Peng's teacher than me."

Cai Yong nodded.

"Why?"

Lu Zhi asked simply.

Chapter 30. Thirty, are you willing to worship me as a teacher?

Seeing Lu Zhi taking the bait, Cai Yong smiled.

"He is very similar to Cao Mengde, and his ambition is not to be academic, but to have the world in mind. What do such people like to learn from me, a Confucian student who has no skills other than academics? Zi Gan, you know me, I I don't have the ability to traverse the sky and the latitude, I'm just a Confucian scholar."

Lu Zhi looked at Guo Peng, who was sitting upright, and then looked at Cai Yong.

"Bo Xie, I really didn't expect you to ask me about this."

"Zigan, we have known each other for some years. I know very well how you behave. Guo Peng's personality is too similar to yours. I hope you can accept him as a student and teach him some skills."

Cai Yong got straight to the point, surprised Guo Peng, speechless, and didn't react. Lu Zhi's psychological quality was good, but he obviously had no prior preparation for this matter.

"Bo Xie, you suddenly said that, what should you call me?"

"Zigan, I'm embarrassing you, this is just my wish, this child has been working by my side for more than a year, and his talents, qualifications, and morals are all first-class. He asked me to be a teacher. It is not a matter of one or two days.

But Ziqian, I know very well that according to the current situation, the great Han world does not need a second Cai Bojiao, who has no power to tie the chicken. "

Cai Yong spoke earnestly, and even stood up, stood in front of Lu Zhi, and bowed.

Guo Peng was shocked and stood up at a loss, while Lu Zhi was also shocked, and quickly stood up to support Cai Yong's body.

"Bo Xie, why do you and I need such a big gift? You entrust me, I accept it, there is no need to do so."

"really?"

Cai Yong looked at Lu Zhi with a smile on his face, Lu Zhi was stunned, opened his mouth, moved his mouth, but did not say a word, leaned a little, his stunned face turned into a wry smile.

"Cai Bojiao, ah Cai Bojiao! You are really a Confucian scholar without the power to tie a chicken!"

Lu Zhi shook his head with a wry smile, then turned around and looked at Guo Peng, who was standing at a loss.

"Guo Peng, come here."

"Ah? Oh... yes!"

Guo Peng immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Lu Zhi, looking up at the sturdy man Lu Zhi.

"Would you like to be my teacher?"

"I……"

Guo Peng looked at Lu Zhi and then at Cai Yong, not realizing what happened for a while.

Everything happened so fast that he didn't have the slightest defense.

He didn't even know how he became Lu Zhi's official introductory disciple inexplicably, and he couldn't remember how he said yes.

Anyway, when he came back to his senses, he and Cai Yong had already gone back together in the car where he came.

"Today's events are indeed a bit sudden. I didn't tell you beforehand, so it is inevitable that you will be so shocked."

Cai Yong looked at Guo Peng who had not recovered, and said with a smile, "However, Xiao Yi, can I still help you a little bit?"

Guo Peng reacted, looking at Cai Yong's narrow smile, and remembered that he had just given Lu Zhi the gift of teacher and student, and officially became Lu Zhi's disciple. This sudden surprise made him unable to adapt for a while.

"It's still a little dizzy."

Guo Peng said with a wry smile: "Cai Gong suddenly did this, the students were really not prepared at all, and they almost made a joke."

"You still blame me?"

"Don't dare!"

"Hahahahaha!"

Cai Yong laughed, then cleaned up his face, and said, "Xiao Yi, you have been editing books by my side for a year, and this year, you have begged me to accept you as a disciple many times. The reason for not agreeing to you is what I just said to Lu Ziqian.

You are very similar to Meng De. Your ambition is in the world. For you, knowledge is not the ultimate goal, but a means to achieve the ultimate goal. Therefore, unlike me, I have no ambition or talent. I can only study knowledge. It's just a title of "Fame".

But you are different, you have ambitions, the purpose of your study of scriptures is to change the status quo of the big man, not to be an old school like me, so I am not suitable to be your teacher, your teacher should be Lu Ziqian . "

Guo Peng was silent for a while, then said, "I didn't think of such a deep place."

"You want to ask me to be a teacher. If I agree to you, I will be responsible to you. I want you to be a teacher to do things, not just accept you as a disciple and then have nothing to do. This is not right. How can people with different aspirations be teachers and students?

Lu Ziqian is different. When you get on a horse, you can govern the army, when you get off a horse, you can be a herdsman. You can also write articles and edit scriptures while sitting next to me. If you want to realize your ambition, it is the most important thing to follow Lu Ziqian to learn the real skills. Follow me, you can only learn Some...trails. "

Cai Yong's face showed a self-deprecating expression: "My teacher is the former grandfather Hu Guang, and he is also a herdsman, but as his student, I only learned the rhythm, calligraphy and painting, and I can't learn the ability to stabilize the country. That's why I'm not happy to accept apprentices."

Turns out there was this thing.

But think about it, Cai Yong's greatest achievement is indeed not the peace and stability of the country, but the music and art.

Compared with the official Cai Yong, the artist Cai Yong is the one who is famous in history. He really did not make any actual contribution to the Han Empire in terms of politics and people's livelihood.

Guo Peng understood Cai Yong's painstaking efforts, and was moved in his heart, so he stood up in the shaking car and bowed to Cai Yong.

"Although there is no relationship between students and Cai Gong, the students are willing to honor Cai Gong for the rest of their lives. I hope Cai Gong will not refuse."

Cai Yong did not refuse, but nodded and accepted Guo Peng's request.

"I promise you."

"Thank you, Duke Cai."

Goodbye Guo Peng.

Then, Cai Yong and Guo Peng talked about some things about learning skills with Lu Zhi, explained some precautions, and then mentioned the matter of the Guo clan in Luoyang City.

"A few years ago, Guo Xi was a Taiwei, and his fame and power were very high for a while, but he was quickly dismissed and resigned to his hometown to retire. It is also your uncle, you should know about this matter."

"Students know."

Guo Peng nodded.

From the generation of grandfather, Guo Peng's clan has no contact with the Yingchuan family. Whether they are high officials in Luoyang or suffer disaster has nothing to do with Guo Dan and Guo Peng and his son. It still depends on Cao's relationship.

Guo Peng came to Luoyang, and he did not go to meet his uncle Guo Hong, who was an official in Luoyang. The relationship was really indifferent and tight. Naturally, Guo Hong did not say anything about Guo Peng's existence, even after Guo Peng got Cai Yonghe. The present that Hashi Xuan appreciates.

"Your in-law relationship with Cao's family is a major problem for you to realize your ambitions. I also know that this is a helpless move for your honor. If you get benefits, it must also be harmful. This is the harm. Now that you have not been crowned, the harm is not so obvious. , when you are crowned, the harm is really obvious, and if you want to turn the situation around, you have to do it by yourself."

Cai Yong said softly: "I know your father must have thought about the old affairs of the Xun family, so he agreed to marry the Cao family for you, but the status of the Xun family is far beyond the Guo family, let alone your family, Xun. Shi's example can't be used mechanically, you have to find your own way."

"Student...understand."

Guo Peng hesitated slightly.

"You're very smart, Xiaoyi. If I were Zi Gan, I would definitely accept you as a disciple. Students need teachers to help, so why don't teachers need students as wings?"

Cai Yong saw Guo Peng's hesitation, and said something to untangle his heart: "The world is like this, why do you have to worry about it?"

Guo Peng knew that Cai Yong knew his thoughts, so he smiled and nodded.

Cai Yong also laughed, and said that he was looking forward to where Guo Peng would go in the future. If Guo Peng became rich and noble in the future, maybe he would have to rely on Guo Peng to support him.

Guo Peng hurriedly said that he did not dare.

Chapter 31 The Northern Expedition to Xianbei

Back at the residence of Taixue, Zang Hong stayed in Guo Peng's house as always, reading and eating fruit, not treating himself as an outsider at all.
