Chapter 8

Lu House.

Lu Kang, the prefect of Lujiang, celebrated his 68th birthday, and the entire Lu residence was full of guests, and it was very lively.

This was Liu Gan's first time participating in the birthday banquet of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it was also the birthday banquet of the dignified prefect. Although he did not have the embarrassment of grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, it was an eye-opener for him.

As soon as he came to the Lu Mansion, he saw groups of strong men competing with each other outside the door, one of them was even more powerful, he lifted a huge three hundred catties cauldron and won applause from all the halls.

"This man's name is Wen Ji. He is extremely brave and controls half of Shu County's troops. He is the prefect of the county. The Wen family is also a well-known family in Lujiang. Apart from Duke Lu, he has the highest prestige in Lujiang." Qiao Yuan said slowly, Patiently introduced to Liu Gan the main characters who came to Lu Mansion to pay their respects.

About the name of Wen Ji, Liu Gan has heard of it. It is rumored that this man defeated [-] Yellow Turban Army with [-] soldiers, beheaded the enemy generals in the formation, and his martial arts were outstanding.

Qiaoyuan introduced several important people to Liu Gan, until the arrival of one person broke the dullness.

"I've seen Mr. Qiao, but I don't know how Lingrong is doing recently. I haven't seen her for quite a while."

The visitor was dressed in a long gown, with delicate features and deep eyes. The strong aura of a descendant of an aristocratic family made people feel precious at first sight. In terms of demeanor alone, it was enough to be called suave and imposing.

"It's Ziming. I haven't seen you for a long time. Ziming is still so handsome. Come, let me introduce you." Qiao Yuan smiled and took Lu Jun's hand, looking quite enthusiastic, and came to Liu Gan: "Wu Shuang, Let's get acquainted, this is Lu Gong's eldest son, Lu Jun Lu Ziming, you young people should get closer to each other."

Liu Gan couldn't help but carefully looked at Lu Jun. This person is in excellent shape, tall and straight, and his appearance is also the best choice. He is full of energy and normal, not at all like the person with hidden diseases...

Could it be that Xiao Qiao lied?
Liu Gan couldn't verify it, so he cupped his hands and saluted: "I'm not talented, Liu Gan, I met Brother Lu."

Lu Jun returned the salute with a slight smile: "I've heard about Wushuang's great name, the capture of He Yi and Zhu Heman, and they should be role models for our younger generation. It's really a joyful move for a man to compete for supremacy in the battlefield!"

Liu Gan said with a smile: "Brother Lu is absurd, the yellow scarves are causing chaos everywhere, Wushuang, as a man of the people, should do his best, and the only thing he can do is die!"

"It's a good one to die!" A voice came suddenly.

"Mr. Lu!"

"Lord Lu!"

"Jining!"

……

That voice was exactly what today's protagonist Lu Kang said. As soon as he arrived, everyone congratulated him one after another. Suddenly, the place where Liu Gan was was overcrowded.

"Meet Duke Lu!" Liu Gan saluted and shouted.

"Well, the younger generation is awesome. Laoqiao has found a good son-in-law, which has added a lot of brilliance to my Lujiang." Lu Kang turned to Qiaoyuan and said with a smile: "Laoqiao, you should be glad that I have no daughter under my knees, otherwise you This good son-in-law, I will definitely fight with you."

"I'm not afraid that you won't fight, but I'm afraid you won't be able to fight. Besides, are you willing to make things difficult for Ling Rong?" Qiao Yuan stared and smiled.

"But you saw through it, boring, boring, my Lingrong child didn't come?" Lu Kang asked.

"Before the wedding date, the two cannot meet." Qiao Yuan explained.

"Look at my old bones, I am forgetful when I am old, I have completely forgotten all of this, ahem..." Lu Kang suddenly coughed.

"Father, are you okay?" Lu Jun looked worried.

"Lu Gong, make sure you are healthy!" Qiao Yuan said.

"It's okay, it's just an old problem, it's going to pass slowly, let's start the meeting." Lu Kang waved his hand and said.

Let's have a feast, and serve wine and food.

A pleasant melody came, and the drums and festivals were played, and the music was harmonious.

Lu Kang was sick and felt unwell after just one cup, so he had to replace wine with water.

Liu Gan took the opportunity to say: "Grandpa Lu, my nephew brews a few altars of good wine. Not only does it taste mellow, drinking less can also strengthen the body, clear the liver and nourish the kidneys."

Hearing this, Lu Kang was shocked immediately, and said, "Is this true?"

"Really." Liu Gan nodded, took out a jar of wine, poured out a bowl and put it in front of Lu Kang, respectfully said: "This is made by my nephew, Mr. Lu can drink it with confidence."

Lu Kang was surprised that Liu Gan could mix wine at such a young age.

Take a sip, the taste is good, the entrance is sweet and the aftertaste is long.

"Good wine!" Lu Kang praised without hesitation.

"Does this wine have a name?" Lu Kang asked.

"So the wine uses longevity turtle and musk deer as the main raw materials, so it is called deer turtle wine." Liu Gan said softly.

"Bold, how dare you compare Lu Gong to a land turtle!" Wen Ji suddenly stood up, pointed at Liu Gan's nose, and questioned loudly.

Lu Kang couldn't help frowning, this wine is indeed a good wine, but the name of the wine is not a good name.

His eyes fell on Liu Gan, and Lu Kang wanted to hear Liu Gan's explanation.

"Wen Zi'an, Liu Gan is clearly talking about deer tortoise, elk deer, and black tortoise tortoise. Why do you have anything to do with Duke Lu? Don't force your words!" Qiao Yuan said loudly.

Zi'an is the epigraph of Wenji.

Wen Ji looked back and forth between Qiao Yuan and Liu Gan, and said coldly: "The deer is the land, and the tortoise is the tortoise, but the name of the wine, what is it called? Putting the turtles together, the grand-sounding name is Lugui Wine, but in fact it refers to the deer as a horse, and its heart can be punished!"

Qiaoyuan wanted to argue with Wenji, but was interrupted by Liu Gan waving his hand.

Liu Gan first bowed to Lu Kang, then nodded slightly to Wenji, with a composed expression, calm and calm: "Brother Zi'an thinks it is inappropriate to put deer and tortoise together. It is nothing more than looking down on tortoises. Why do people look down on tortoises? Because tortoises have It's an ugly name, bastard."

Hearing this, Lu Kang's face gradually became a little ugly, and everyone present was talking about it.

Liu Gan took his time and said slowly: "Actually, a tortoise is a tortoise. If there is no other name like bastard, the tortoise represents longevity, authority, predicting the future, etc. Even the tortoise is a kind of cultural knowledge. I believe everyone Everyone knows that oracle bone inscriptions are the earliest hieroglyphs left by the sages, in which turtles play an important role and are a symbol of knowledge and culture.”

Liu Gan suddenly raised his voice, and questioned Wen Ji face to face: "May I ask what is wrong with the turtle? It is ridiculous, sad, lamentable, and even more pitiful for a creature that has contributed so much to us to be humiliated by people as a bastard for a long time!"

"In my opinion, a tortoise is a tortoise, and a bastard is a bastard. In the eyes of knowledgeable people, it is a tortoise! ​​In the eyes of ignorant people, it is a bastard! Master Wen, I give you a word..."

"There are no things much ado about!"

As if struck by lightning, Wen Ji was speechless in the face of Liu Gan's rebuttal. After a while, he waved his sleeves and hummed coldly: "Huangkou kid."

After saying that, Liu Gan bowed to Lu Kang again, and left the table on the pretext of going to the toilet.

As soon as Liu Gan went, the people in the hall were like a frying pan, and people began to criticize Liu Gan with mixed opinions.

"It's against the sky, a scumbag, dare to openly argue with this official! And humiliate this official with bullshit! Great rebellion! Great rebellion!" Wen Ji was furious, and vomited bitterness in front of Lu Kang.

Surprisingly, Lu Kang didn't get angry, instead he said with a smile: "It's good to say that there is nothing wrong with mediocrity in this world. This guy is not vulgar!"

On the side, Lu Jun stared at the direction where Liu Gan disappeared in a daze.

Is this the husband-in-law chosen by Ling Rong?
