Chapter 52 Dinner
Take it upright?

Gui was silent for a while, then tentatively said, "Zhao Rong, are you going to sell Lin Wenruo?"

When the words fell, Gui immediately became excited, "This seat agrees with this idea, and this seat has long disliked him."

Zhao Rong said strangely, "Where did he offend you?"

Gui sneered, "How could he have the right to offend me, I just don't like his attitude of 'doing my part', as if Zhongnan would not be able to leave him. He, or you sour scholars, heh, There are also those Mo Xia with a single tendon, always holding some narcissism of the savior, self-righteous and taking saving the world as their responsibility, please, don’t look at your own position.”

"You Confucians don't have a saying, you don't have a position, you don't plan for your government. You have no ability, you just have the heart of a common man, and you dictate things all day long, and teach high-ranking people to do things. It seems that others are inferior to you. I can do better, hehe, I met one of these people and killed one of them back then."

Zhao Rong was speechless, opened the curtains, and glanced out the window.

Gui continued: "He, Lin Wenruo, is now the head of the Lanxi Lin clan, but as a result, he has no prudence and does not put the prosperity of the family in the first place, but takes the entire family as a bet for him alone, betting On the table, bet on an unknown future. It's okay to win, but what if you lose?"

"Ancestor's foundation, a hundred years of wear and tear, destroy it at once, it is a great treason!"

Zhao Rong did not refute or argue with it. He knew that what Gui said was actually his way, and what Lin Wenruo did was also his way. Everyone's way was different. Black is white.

And in this Xuanhuang Realm, what the various schools of thought and the monks on the mountain are fighting for, isn't it to make their own Dao the Dao recognized by the world?
As for what his Tao is, maybe he already has it, but he doesn't know it yet, and is still asking himself...

The more Gui thought about it, the more angry he became, "If my family has such unworthy descendants, I must go back and break his dog's legs!"

Zhao Rong said helplessly, "Okay, okay, break the dog's leg, break the dog's leg, stop being angry, if it's not convenient for you to hit, I'll help you break his dog's leg."

Gui snorted coldly, "You still have some conscience."

Zhao Rong said solemnly: "What are you talking about, who are we and who? Good brother who soaks a tub and sleeps with a quilt every night, who am I not going to help you?"

Zhao Rong coughed lightly, "By the way, first tell me which family it belongs to, I'll be ready first, or what if I run over and get interrupted by the dog's leg."

He didn't answer the question, and brought back the topic of habitual deviation, "So you didn't betray Lin Wenruo? Then how can you take it upright?"

It thought for a while, and said seriously: "Aren't you going to buy them from them, or exchange something for something? I advise you not to do this, don't think that people are fools, once you make such a request, they will immediately be alerted , Tingni Zijin Furnace, a treasure of the seventh level, can be dusted with pearls until now, giving you the opportunity to pick up the leak, which is a miracle in itself, and you still hope that others will not find its magic after checking it?"

After speaking, it was puzzled, "I don't know why it was left here, and the pearl has been covered in dust. Well, first of all, it can be ruled out as a bait. This small place even said that it is impossible for anyone in Wangquezhou to use this kind of thing. The treasure of the level is in the game, so you don't have to worry about fishing. Let's wait until you get it."

Zhao Rong thought for a while, then slowly said: "I'm not that stupid, I'll remind them that the furnace is extraordinary. I have some ideas at the moment, but they're not perfect. I'll have to observe for a few more days, but if there's no accident, we'll just walk in during the day. , in front of them, just take out the Tingni Zijin Furnace with integrity."

Returning to ask again, but Zhao Rong smiled and said nothing.

After a while, the carriage had bumped into the south gate of Luojing. Zhao Rong jumped out of the carriage, paid the fare, and returned to the inn with ease. After talking to the shopkeeper, he took out some money and put it on the counter. , extended the room to ten days.After that, Zhao Rong returned to the guest room, changed his clothes, tidied up his things, and left.

Zhao Rong bought some snacks for Su Xiaoxiao on the street. Seeing that it was getting late, he returned to Lanxi Lin's manor while thinking about things.

About an hour later, Zhao Rong stepped on the last rays of the setting sun and stepped into the quiet yard where he lived, and ended the way of lowering his head to think, but when he raised his head, he found that Lin Wenruo was holding a jade bi in his hand, standing in the yard.

"How long has Wen Ruo been waiting?" Zhao Rong said with a smile, went to the well to draw a pinch of water, and washed his hands.

Lin Wenruo smiled warmly and didn't ask Zhao Rong why he was out during the day, "I just came here for a while, did Ziyu eat? I happened to have a dinner party and introduced a friend to you."

Zhao Rong stopped for a moment, wiped his face with a silk towel, and looked back at Lin Wenruo.

Since Zhao Rong entered the Lin Manor, except for a few domestic servants, he has not seen many people. It is reasonable to say that the Lanxi Lin Clan, as a family of poetry and etiquette, a family of Zhongming Dingshi, and the leader of Confucianism and Taoism in Zhongnan, communicate with each other. There should be an endless stream of visiting Confucian scholars, dignitaries, and dignitaries, but the mansion is very quiet, there are no feasts, literary gatherings, silk and bamboo orchestras, and the surroundings of the residence of himself and others are even more quiet and no one.

This is probably the reason for preventing this Confucianism and Taoism debate from being leaked again, the same as last time.

As for myself going out twice today, I don't need to worry too much, because Lanxi Lin usually provides accommodation for some passing scholars and scholars, letting them live in a special homestay outside the manor.

Therefore, there are a lot of people entering and leaving, so Zhao Rong is inconspicuous among them.

And this time Lin Wenruo specially came to him for a dinner party and introduced friends, it could only be related to the debate between Confucianism and Taoism, and the identity of that friend was ready to be revealed.

"I didn't eat, let's go." Zhao Rong put down the silk towel and went out with Lin Wenruo with the cake.

When passing by Su Xiaoxiao's courtyard, the two stopped, Zhao Rong knocked on the door, waited for a while, found that Xiao Nizi was not there, and didn't know where to go, so he hung the cake on her door, and the two leave.

The dinner was held on the open-air top floor of a three-story building in the south corner of the manor.

The crescent moon is like a hook, and the evening breeze is gentle.

When Zhao Rong and Lin Wenruo went upstairs, a scribe was already waiting in the room.

This man is dressed in a big cloak, wears a jue bian on his head, and holds a feather fan in his hand.

Lin Wenruo explained to Zhao Rong.

This person's name is Chen Mu, the word is Muzhi, and he is a native of Zhongshan, thousands of miles away from Zhongnan.

Chen Muzhi was a well-known scholar in Zhongshan. He was a child prodigy since he was a child. He even won the third grade in the imperial examinations, but he refused to serve as an official.

Chen Muzhi is good at ancient poetry of the seven laws and clear talk and debate. He heard that the wind of clear talk in Zhongnan Kingdom was prevalent before, so he came to visit specially, because the family had an old relationship with the Lanxi Lin family, so he settled in the Lanxi Lin family's manor.

After the dispute between Confucianism and Taoism was settled, Lin Wenruo remembered that there was a good talker in his family, and invited him to help Lanxi Lin's favor, and the latter readily agreed.

Moreover, not long after Chen Muzhi came to Zhongnan, he didn't have much contact with Zhongnan celebrities, so almost no one in Zhongnan knew him, which was why Lin Wenruo chose him. Chong Xuguan didn't know Chen Muzhi's existence.

The three meet.

Lin Wenruo introduced the two with a smile, but Chen Muzhi frowned slightly when he found out that Zhao Rong was just a young scholar who went to Linlu Academy to study.

Zhao Rong said hello, and Chen Muzhi nodded with a rather reserved expression.

Zhao Rong smiled and didn't care.

During the banquet, the three of them exchanged cups and exchanged a cup of tea, and the conversation was quite enjoyable, but it was mainly Lin Wenruo who was active, Zhao Rong and Chen Muzhi were sitting around him, and there were very few words between the two.

Although Chen Muzhi is arrogant, he does have real talents and real learning. For example, when he drinks the flying flower order, Zhao Rong can't help but look at him a few more times, but Zhao Rong doesn't participate much, mainly because he and Lin Wenruo are playing .

However, with Lin Wenruo in the room, the atmosphere was not awkward, and it was considered a home away from home.

Soon, as the dinner drew to a close, Lin Wenruo looked up at the bright moon in the sky, Zhao Rong and Chen Muzhi put down their chopsticks and wine glasses.

After all, it was late, and the three still had business to discuss.

The three got up and walked to the railing.

Zhao Rong stretched out his hand and tapped the railing, looking into the distance.

Chen Muzhi shook his feather fan slowly, his expression indifferent.

Lin Wenruo glanced at the two of them, let out a sigh of relief, and looked serious, and slowly talked about the specific arrangements for the debate between Confucianism and Taoism after nine days.
