In fact, he trusted his younger brother very much, otherwise he would not have given up his lifelong political ambitions because of his younger brother's words, and he has been raising his family in Jiangdong for nearly fifteen years.

Zhi Mindu said: "Monk, although I don't know who that person is, I know that he and your Lu family have a great chance."

Lu Ji smiled and said, "Master Zhimeitu should understand that I don't believe in Buddhism."

Zhi Mindu smiled mysteriously: "It's not about Buddhism, it's about fate. The Lord of Dou Shu has appeared."

The Lord of Dou Shu is Ziweixing.

Chapter 202: Celebrity Affairs (Twenty-nine)

Lu Ji said: "When did the master change Buddhism and become Taoist?"

The theory of fortune-telling and stargazing are all Taoist skills.

Zhi Mingdu smiled and sighed: "Although Buddhism and Taoism are becoming more and more prosperous as a new religion, it is not as long-standing as Taoism. If we don't combine the strengths of all schools, how can Buddhism and Taoism last forever?"

Nowadays, metaphysics is flourishing, and all the famous eminent monks in the world have learned by analogy, and they are all good talkers. Otherwise, there is no way to promote Buddhist doctrine and win a place in the dispute of orthodoxy.

When Lu Ji heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Master is indeed a rare and wonderful person, very sincere. No wonder he is famous in my place in Jiangzuo."

"Thank you, thank you." Although Zhi Mingdu was self-effacing, there was no trace of humility on his face.

Lu Yun walked for a few moments and finally saw the true face of the musician. Compared with his own graceful and elegant appearance, the person who played the flute music was not at all as gentle and elegant as the music he played. On the contrary, his face was Handsome and as powerful as Yuanting.

"What kind of problem did brother encounter?" Lu Yun stepped forward and asked.

You Hongyin and his party had already seen someone approaching, and Hu Gui and the other guards were all on alert.

Although You Hongyin didn't know the identity of the person in front of him, he felt good about him when he saw his popularity. Hearing the visitor's question, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "Just now, the old fisherman in Mengjiang River was very hospitable and gave me delicacies from the river. It’s a bit distressing because there is no one around me who is good at cooking.”

Hu Gui's expression remained calm next to him, and he knew that his master must have selectively forgotten the original purpose of playing the flute. But in front of outsiders, he would naturally not dismantle his own lord.

Lu Yun laughed loudly: "I heard Mr.'s song just now in the distance. Since the old fisherman listened to the music and sent fish to him, why not come up with another story about meeting friends and enjoying sea bass together. I am walking in autumn with my good friend and brother. There happens to be a Yi Ya master next to me.”

You Hongyin couldn't bear to eat the delicious food, and said without restraint: "It's such a bother."

"Don't bother me, don't bother me. Come with me." Seeing this, Lu Yun turned back, and You Hongyin walked with him.

"I wonder where Xiongtai's fairyland is?" Lu Yun asked.

"I grew up in Luoyang when I was young, then studied in Guangling, and now I work in Qingzhou." You Hongyin said: "My surname is Guo, my name is Xi, my accent is Guan Xiongtai, and I am from Wu County. I don't know what the name is?"

When Lu Yun heard You Hongyin introducing himself, he couldn't help but pause slightly and said, "My dear brother is Guo Xi, Guo Congyue, the governor of Qingzhou?"

You Hongyin said: "So I am actually so famous?"

Lu Yun said: "I wonder if my dear brother knows Mr. Dai Chang?"

You Hongyin paused for a while and said, "Mr. Dai is an old friend of my mentor, how could I not recognize him?"

Lu Yun said: "I am Lu Yun of the Lu family in Wu County. My brother Lu Ji has even become friends with Dai Yuan, the son of Mr. Dai Chang. A few years ago, we have heard of the name of the wise brother." Up to this point, Lu Yun still said quite funny. : "Mr. Dai Chang praised you to the heavens and the earth, but my brother Siruo has already had the desire to compete with you and wants to see what I am capable of."

You Hongyin looked at it carefully: "It can be seen that things in the world are so clever. It turns out that the gentleman is Lu Shilong of the Lu family."

"So, dear brother, you came here specifically to find me." Lu Yun's eyes flashed slightly, but his tone seemed very casual.

How did he know Guo Xi?

It was indeed through Dai Yuan's mouth at first.

Dai Yuan and Lu Ji were indeed close friends, and even had a half-teacher relationship. Although Dai is a celebrity in the family, he can only be regarded as a newcomer. Even if there is Dai Chang, he is not considered a wealthy family. Dai Yuan was quite intelligent, but what he learned was not favored by the powerful. Because Lu Ji was the most talented in the world, Dai Yuan followed Lu Ji to study essays for two years, and his essays were also very splendid. Fang Bo earned a reputation as a scholar. Later, after being recommended by Lu Ji, he was officially recognized by the Sima family and was able to take up a high position.

Later, the people he relied on failed to fight for Luoyang, and Sima Yue had the final say in Luoyang. Dai Yuan resigned from his official position and temporarily lived in Jiangzuo, patiently waiting for the opportunity to come out again.

A few years ago, Dai Yuan received a letter from his father at home, praising Guo Xiguo Congyue, a disciple of the Chen family and Chen Kan. Dai Yuan, who had never received any praise from his father, could not help but feel jealous even though he was the father of several children. How much talent a sixteen-year-old kid with a yellow mouth has, it's just that he has some talent for calligraphy and makes the old man happy.

This was the first time Lu Yun heard Guo Xi's name. At that time, neither he nor Dai Yuan took this young man seriously.

Until a year ago.

Since Lu Yun is determined to seek the enlightened master of the world, he naturally pays more attention to the affairs of the world. Several princes and princes are under his observation, and several ministers of various lands and territories are also under his evaluation.

It was at this time that Guo Xi, the Lord of Qingzhou, came into his eyes.

Others didn't know Guo Xi's age. They only knew that this descendant of the Guo family in Luoyang was young enough, but he happened to be the governor of Qingzhou. His words were filled with contempt and disdain. This person had neither talent nor virtue. Not only famous, but also not from a top family, it is inevitable that some people will feel unhappy.

But Lu Yun understood that the governor of Qingzhou had great plans. He was just in his early twenties, but he was already a pastor of a state.

Lu Yun never believed in luck or coincidence, so he began to deploy people to investigate Guo Xi's deeds in Qingzhou.

You won’t know if you don’t check it, but you will be shocked when you see it.

It is a well-known fact that Qingzhou is remote and not rich in products. Although it is better than Bingzhou, Youzhou and other places, except for the Daizong who is the most famous in the world, it is really nothing to praise.

But now Qingzhou has changed a lot. Although it may not be as prosperous as the south that has been prosperous for countless years, it has exuded a different vitality. At least it is definitely second to none in the north.

Looking closely at Guo Xi's promotion process, he first won the position of Gaomi County Governor, and Chen must have contributed a lot behind this. Otherwise, even in a remote county, Guo Xi would have been hard-pressed to win at his young age. Then he seized the time to develop Gaomi, and finally Seize the right time, when the location is favorable and the people are right, he seizes the position of Qingzhou Shepherd in one fell swoop.

After seizing the throne, there was a severe drought in the north and an infestation of locusts. The Hu people moved south, and even Sima Yue had to prepare to move the capital to temporarily avoid the enemy. However, Qingzhou was peaceful, with abundant food harvests and no bandits.

Lu Ji looked at the Yizhou Mu Shou next to him, who could only be considered a young man and was ten years younger than him, and sighed in his heart that this man still had the leisure to come to Jiangzuo to play.

However, Lu Ji also saw Qingzhou's weaknesses, and also understood Guo Xi's purpose of risking his way to Jiangzuo to look for people.

Looking at the grain taxes this person has paid to the court in the past two years, as well as the entire document crying about poverty, we can know what his thoughts are.

However, he could not take off his righteous skin for the time being, and he could not spread everything on the table like that idiot Chen Min in Jiangzuo now. Therefore, few people paid attention to the Qingzhou incident, and his name as Guo Xi was only There are rumors circulating in Qingzhou, but few people have heard of it. Naturally, this unknown person has no one to turn to, and if no one turns to him, he will naturally have no talent. It is useless to be thirsty for talents, and no one will pay attention to him.

Therefore, Lu Yun was not surprised at all that Guo Xi came looking for someone. Of course, knowing all this did not prevent him from pretending to be stupid, so he could ask the same question before.

When You Hongyin heard that Lu Yun asked back, but he was specifically looking for him, he naturally said so.

But I heard Lu Yun said: "Although I have heard of Cong Yue for a long time, I don't know what my dear brother Xunwu is talking about."

You Hongyin took a careful look at the peach-faced scribe in front of him and said, "You and I don't know each other very well when we meet for the first time, so we'll put this topic on hold for the time being. We have a long time to come."

Lu Yun smiled and said, "We're here."

But it turned out that the two of them had been talking all the way and had arrived at the Yanmiao Pavilion where Lu Yun, Lu Ji and Zhi Mindu were enjoying the river view. ∞This ∞ work∞ is compiled by ∞ Si∞ Rabbit∞ at ∞ online∞read∞read∞net∞friend∞organized∞upload∞∞

The two characters "Yanmiao" written on You Hongyin's Guan Pavilion are not the regular script that is gradually becoming popular nowadays, but the seal script. The font is simple and simple, with a sense of flowing water. It can be seen that the person who wrote it took the scenery into his heart and then used it to describe it. Love enters the character.

"Good words." You Hongyin said.

"This word was written by my brother when he was young. If you think about it carefully, it has been many years." Lu Yun said: "Brother, this is Guo Xi and Guo Congyue, Chen Kan's disciple. Brother Dai Yuan once mentioned it."

Then he wanted to introduce monk Zhi Mindu to You Hongyin, but was interrupted by Zhi Mindu: "Guo Tanyue is fine."

You Hongyin was a little confused: "I seem to have never seen the master before."

"The monk's name is Zhi Mindu. He once went to Zhuxi Temple to exchange Buddhist teachings with senior brother Miaozhi, and he met Tan Yue." There seemed to be a smile on Zhi Mindu's face: "It was just that Tan Yue made a bet with senior brother Miaozhi at that time. , but I ignored the monk."

You Hongyin thought carefully and finally remembered that when he was in Guangling that day, Monk Miaozhi of Zhuxi Temple had a string of rosary beads that was very popular with his teacher Chen Kan. It was originally prepared by Miaozhi as a birthday gift for Chen Kan, but that happened to him. The monk was born with a bad taste. He used the rosary to make Chen Kan miss him but refused to give it away in vain. He insisted on making a bet. If something happened, the disciple would obey him, so You Hongyin took over the bet.

At that time, the monk asked a question, and even You Hongyin thought about it for a long time, from morning to evening down the mountain, before he got the answer.

It seems that a famous monk from Qiguang Temple came to the temple that day, but at that time he was focused on difficult problems and did not have much impression.

"It turned out to be the master." After You Hongyin recalled carefully, Fang was surprised: "But I remember that the master had a ruddy face and smooth and white skin a few years ago. Why has it been like this in the past few years?" The famous monk in You Hongyin's impression He is a young monk, but the person in front of him has his eyebrows gradually turning white, and there are signs of age on his face.

"It's just that time is ruthless." Zhi Mindu said casually as he did not want to discuss the topic in depth.

Seeing this, Lu Yun smiled and said: "I just played a song from Yue, and the old fisherman gave me a few four-cheeked bass. It just so happened that I brought along a master of Yi Ya. Master, brother, we are borrowing some money, and we are very lucky."

Although Zhi Mitu is a monk, in fact today's Buddhists do not abstain from meat, but only avoid eating five pungent foods.

If a Buddha cannot eat the five pungent foods. Garlic, onion, green onion, orchid green onion, and xingqu are the five pungent ingredients.

Therefore, Lu Yun's words of blessing also include the support and compassion.

Then the Lu family servant who was good at cooking led the servants to a distant place to bury the pot and cook. Lu Yun often went out to play. He did not like cooked food such as cakes, but liked to heat up meals and dishes in the wild. Because he was born and raised by the river, he liked to eat fish the most, so he often went out with a cook and various ingredients.

Seeing this, You Hongyin called Hu Gui who was outside the pavilion and told him to take out the things in the car.

Chapter 203 The Elegance of Celebrities (30)

Hu Gui brought two things, one was a can of clear tea, and the other was a jar of wine.

This can of clear tea was made from a wild tea plant picked from the pines on Mount Tai. It must be extraordinary to catch You Hongyin's eye. The age of this tea tree is unknown. It has been coexisting with pine trees for many years. The dew it receives has all passed through pine branches and leaves. Therefore, the leaves carry a hint of bitter pine fragrance, which complements the bitter taste of the tea itself, so it is called "Songyin Mist Tea".

The wine was not that precious, it was just sorghum wine. Qingzhou planted a lot of sorghum to resist drought. You Hongyin brewed it into wine, but the new sorghum wine tasted too stimulating and strong, with a bit of dryness, so You Hongyin stored it in bamboo cellars for two years, and added some medicinal herbs. You Hongyin learned the recipe from an unknown time. The medicinal herbs in the recipe had a plain taste and had little effect on the taste of the wine. On the contrary, they could remove the dryness and spiciness in the wine, and had the effect of strengthening the body, which complemented the sorghum wine. Because the recipe contained hundreds of herbs, it was named Baicao Gusheng Tang, and the wine followed the recipe and was named Baicao Wine.

The tea at that time was not the fried tea of ​​later generations, but fresh tea leaves. Drinking tea was not
