Chapter 193 The Birth of the Han Spokesperson

Chapter 193 The Birth of the Han Spokesperson
"Yuanlong, why did you invite us to your house as guests?"

The person who spoke was a man who was sitting in front of Chen Deng. He was wearing gorgeous clothes, had a black bun on his head, had a dignified appearance, and a pair of bright and sharp eyes.

"Brother Yuanda, everyone, please be patient and listen to me carefully."

Chen Deng smiled at the man. The man was Zhao Yuanda whom he had mentioned a few days ago.

Zhao Yuanda, whose real name was Zhao Yu, was a native of Langya. When he was young, he studied "Gongyang Zhuan" with the hermit Qi Guanjun. He devoted himself to study for many years and never went to the garden. Even his relatives rarely saw him.

After he had completed his studies, he returned to his hometown to do good deeds and became a role model of the time. He was always upright, did not listen to evil things, and did not look at things indiscriminately. No one could disturb his mind.

A few years ago, the imperial court selected three officials to fill the positions of county magistrates, and Zhao Yu was appointed as the magistrate of Ju County.

Zhao Yu, who was in Ju County, devoted all his attention to education. His political achievements were remarkable and he was also a very eye-catching figure in the entire Langya Kingdom.

However, the Yellow Turban Rebellion happened at that time and raged in the five counties of Xuzhou. Zhao Yu took the lead in sending troops to quell the rebellion. After the rebellion was quelled, the Xuzhou governor Baqi presented a memorial to the emperor, saying that Zhao Yu had the greatest contribution and deserved promotion and reward.

However, Zhao Yu knew that he had no outstanding military achievements, so he was ashamed and gritted his teeth and simply resigned and returned home. He expressed his distress to Chen Deng more than once under the influence of alcohol.

As a good friend, Chen Deng often comforted Zhao Yu. Of course, Chen Deng did not forget Zhao Yu in the afterlife. He once asked Zhen De about Zhao Yu's future, but got a regrettable result.

A few years later, Tao Qian became the governor of Xuzhou. He repeatedly recommended Zhao Yu to the emperor, but Zhao Yu repeatedly refused. In the end, Tao Qian even used torture to force Zhao Yu to take up the post.

After taking office as the governor of Guangling, the good days had only lasted a few days before Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou again. Xuzhou was in chaos. Zuo Rong, a fellow villager who had defected to Tao Qian, took this opportunity to leave Tao Qian with 10,000 men and women and 3,000 horses. When he passed by Guangling, Zhao Yu treated him with courtesy. Unexpectedly, when they were drunk, Zuo Rong became jealous of Guangling's wealth, and suddenly attacked, killed Zhao Yu, looted Guangling, and left.

Whenever he thought of this, Chen Deng couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. Neither Tao Qian nor Lu Bu were good people, and the death of his good friend was really unfair.

"Yuanda, you must stay away from the Danyang people with the surname Zuo in the future."

"?"

Chen Deng's subconscious words made Zhao Yu confused. What is "笮"? He is from Danyang?
"Yuanlong, what are you talking about? I don't know anyone from Danyang. I'm unemployed at home now and have no chance to make friends with people from Danyang." Zhao Yu said strangely.

Chen Deng retracted his gaze and said, "Yuanda, in the future, don't trust others easily."

"."

Zhao Yu was puzzled in his heart, isn't this a truth that even a three-year-old child knows?

But when he saw Chen Deng's serious expression, he still said "Okay."

Then Zhao Yu said: "Yuanlong, please tell us why you invited us here! Don't keep us waiting!"

Hearing the voice, Chen Deng looked up and looked around, one strange yet familiar face after another came into view. When they felt Chen Deng's gaze, they all straightened their backs and restrained their expressions, for fear of being labeled as rude and impolite.

These people were all scholars from various families in Xia Pi. The ancestor of the Chen family had a Taiwei who was one of the three highest officials in the country. Although the Chen family was not as good as the Yuan family, which had three highest officials in four generations, it was still a well-known family in Xia Pi.

As the heir of the Chen family, Chen Deng was even more famous in the village. Unlike the good reputation of other scholars, Chen Deng was known among the scholars for being frivolous.

However, the frivolous Chen Deng actually invited them to a banquet and wrote a letter personally, using Xuande paper! How could one not be overjoyed!
A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. If it were someone else, he would most likely have other thoughts, but this was Chen Yuanlong! It would be harder than climbing to the sky to get Chen Yuanlong to praise someone!
There was a burning flame in the eyes of everyone at the banquet. They looked at Chen Deng, expecting his speech.

"Clap"

Chen Deng clapped his hands, and seven or eight maids holding a wooden table came in through the side door with lowered brows and pleasing looks. They walked slowly in front of the scholars and placed the wooden table on the table.

The scholars looked at the objects on the wooden table and looked at each other in confusion. Someone murmured, "This thing looks exquisite, but what is its use?"

Chen Deng seemed to have heard the man's whisper. He raised his voice a few times to attract everyone's attention, then covered his face and said in shame: "Gentlemen, before this, I was like a frog in a well, and I could only see a small piece of the sky. I searched for wise men everywhere, but due to the narrow vision, I didn't find the wise men around me!" "So I racked my brains and finally researched this thing!"

Zhao Yu stood up and acted as Chen Deng's supporting actor. He asked, "Brother Yuanlong, what is this thing called, what are its effects, and how much does it cost?"

"I won't take a penny!" Chen Deng said loudly, "This thing is called a toothbrush. I give it to you as a gift to show my shame. You are all wise men, not wise men."

The scholars looked at each other again, and Zhao Yu asked, "May I ask what makes Yuanlong a wise man?"

"A wise man must first have good self-cultivation, secondly have a good reputation, and thirdly be elegant," Chen Deng replied.

Zhao Yu asked again: "How do we pursue self-cultivation, fame, and elegance?"

"Cultivation can be gained through reading, and reputation can be accumulated through doing good deeds, but elegance is the most annoying. Clothing, etiquette and music can all be cultivated, but the slow results are really tormenting."

"Brother Yuanlong's implication is that if you want to cultivate elegance efficiently..." Zhao Yu swallowed his saliva and looked at the toothbrush on the wooden table, surprised and asked, "Could it be that this is what you rely on?"

"Not bad!"

"What effect does this thing have?!" Zhao Yu waved his sleeves and looked up at Chen Deng, his tone becoming more and more urgent. He no longer looked like the gentleman he used to be, and he seemed to be determined to get to the bottom of the matter.

Facing Zhao Yu's questioning, Chen Deng took a step forward, straightened his chest, showing his white teeth, confident and assertive.

The scholars present looked at Chen Deng, who was not confused. The eagerness in their eyes seemed to penetrate into their hearts. Their breathing became rapid. They thought, so it turns out to make teeth white. If it were me, would I be as elegant as Chen Yuanlong? !
"So you just use a toothbrush to brush your teeth?! Great, great!"

Zhao Yu yelled, grabbed the toothbrush and stuffed it into his mouth.

However, Chen Deng reached out and grabbed Zhao Yu's arm and shouted

"Wait a minute!"

"Hmm?" Zhao Yu blinked.

Chen Deng smiled and took out a packet of medicine powder from his arms. He said with a smile: "It will only be effective if it is combined with medicine powder. Do you know the history of Hua Yuanhua?"

As soon as Hua Tuo's words came out, someone stood up immediately.

"Brother Yuanlong, Hua Changshi's name is well-known. I heard that Hua Changshi is not only proficient in classics, but also good at politics. He governed Jincheng County in an orderly manner. Moreover, Hua Changshi has superb medical skills. He is really a great sage! To be honest, my brother has been treated by Hua Changshi. Other doctors said that my brother could not be cured, but Hua Changshi just prepared a few decoctions and my brother recovered!"

Pei State was adjacent to Xuzhou, and many gentry in Xuzhou had received treatment from Hua Tuo. Before he had an official position, most gentry looked down on Hua Tuo, but after he had an official position, he was completely different in the eyes of the gentry. What kind of doctor is this? It was obviously Hua Changshi who couldn't bear to see the people suffering from illness, so he studied medicine!
Chen Deng nodded and said, "This medicinal powder was prepared by Hua Changshi himself."

As soon as these words came out, a storm instantly broke out.
"Heaven and Earth!" A scholar's eyes widened, and even his hands were shaking. "Did I hear correctly that Hua Changshi personally prepared it?!"

"If I use Hua Changshi's powder, won't I be able to live to be ninety-nine?!"

In the blink of an eye, the scene became lively, and they even forgot the fact that they were in Chen's mansion. The chief official in charge of the military affairs and money of a county was the chief official under the governor! The chief official personally prepared the medicine, and his medical skills were superb. This was something they could not imagine, and it satisfied their vanity in many ways.

"Ahem." Zhao Yu cleared his throat and asked, "Excuse me, Yuanlong, how much does the powder cost?"

As soon as this question was asked, the atmosphere suddenly cooled down. Yes, now it’s a question of how much money it is.

Chen Deng held up three fingers and smiled: "Three thousand coins a bag."
