Chapter 408: A loyal minister and a filial son, accept with a small stick and walk with a big stick(1/2)
People say that when you are proud, you will forget your form.
Liu Bei met his teacher, reunited after a long absence, and felt that he had done something great. He was so happy that he wanted to show off what he had done.
There was a momentary lapse in conversation, and Liu Bei immediately said the distilled wine.
However, whether Lu Zhi could understand what distillation is after listening to it casually is a matter of two opinions.
The distillation method is simple, but the threshold is not easy to cross.
Lu Zhi once again lamented that Liu Bei had a good command of the army, and even the wine brewed in the army was much better than the fine wine he usually drank.
Lu Zhi, who was hungry due to the abundant meat, opened his mouth to eat after Liu Bei repeatedly persuaded him to eat.
The chicken was stewed so tender that it was even stewed with spices. Lu Zhi could smell it as soon as he smelled it.
Spices are more expensive than gold and silver, and Liu Bei's army is so luxurious.
Lu Zhi originally thought that it would be better to admonish Liu Bei again and persuade the student to march and fight in a simple way.
However, when he thought about Liu Beijun raising chickens, ducks and pigs, and perhaps growing his own spices, Lu Zhi laughed at himself and ignored it.
Liu Xuande, this student, has strong wings, so there is no need to mess up the old man's words.
Lu Zhi caught up. Spices were expensive and scarce. A few days ago, the traveling caravan bought back some small quantities of spices.
I just used it to entertain guests today.
The chicken is delicious, so is the duck. I don’t know how the fish was cooked, but it’s not fishy and delicious. The fish should have been stewed with vinegar, so it’s sour, tender and delicious.
Half fat and half lean beef is fine.
The mutton is fat, tender and extremely delicious.
After eating the meat, Lu Zhi suddenly saw a bowl full of eggs in the bowl next to the table.
Eggs are delicious too.
Stop to peel the eggs and enjoy the meal.
This sumptuous meal in the army is considered luxurious.
This was probably the most comfortable and enjoyable meal that Lu Zhi had had in several months. It was not like in the army, where he was worried about the military situation every day and did not dare to neglect for a moment. He ate porridge every day and did not know the taste of the porridge.
Now I am in the student army, I feel safe and comfortable, almost like home.
Liu Bei saw the teacher letting go and eating to his heart's content. He smiled happily, picked up the wine bowl, and then got ready to eat and drink.
After taking a sip of wine, Liu Bei let out a sigh.
This wine...
Take another sip, yes, this wine is sweet and tastes surprisingly good.
It shouldn't be. Liu Bei drank distilled spirits, but they were not so sweet. Why are the spirits so sweet?
Liu Bei vaguely felt that there was a story, but it was difficult to find out at this time.
Lu Zhi was full of wine and rice. There was a lot of meat left on the table, and he really couldn't eat any more.
Liu Bei observed his words, clapped his hands at the right time, and called his soldiers to come and collect the leftovers.
Then, after chatting with Lu Zhi for a while, Liu Bei introduced the topic at the right time, "Master Lu, this dispatch of troops depends on the help of everyone. I would like to introduce you to the teacher. Is it possible?"
Liu Bei was so humble in what he said. As a guest, Lu Zhi did not violate the principles of the host family.
Lu Zhi nodded and said, "I guess there must be many capable men under Xuande's tent." Lu Zhi gave Liu Bei a small compliment.
Liu Bei called his soldiers and told him, "Go and call Generals Guan and Zhang, as well as military advisors."
Lu Zhi heard clearly that under Liu Bei's command, two generals, Zhang Zhang and a military advisor were heavily relied upon.
After a while, figures outside the tent moved.
Three figures, two large and one small, entered the account one after another.
"I've met Master Lu. (I've met Master Lu.)"
Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Li Mengxi bowed respectfully to Lu Zhi, who was sitting upright.
Lu Zhi saw that Guan and Zhang were both tall and handsome, and secretly thought they were two fierce men.
The third one I saw was a child.
Lu Zhi gave a rare smile, "Xuande, the baby is so old? Are you going to fight with a baby?"
Guan Zhang couldn't help laughing.
Liu Bei also grinned to the sky, while Li Mengxi looked helpless.
"Master Lu, these are my two sworn brothers. The one in green is Guan Yu, whose courtesy name is Yunchang, and the one in black is Zhang Fei, whose nickname is Yide. Both of them have courage that no man can match."
"This young man is not my son, but our army's military advisor, Li Shi, also named Meng Xi.
Since Zhuozhou, students have relied on him for military matters."
After Lu Zhi listened to Liu Bei's introduction, he didn't react for a moment. After a moment, he suddenly stared at Li Mengxi and saw that this little boy, this is... Military Advisor Liu Xuande?!"
Lu Zhi only felt ridiculous.
"Yun Chang, Yide, Xi'er, take your seats." Liu Bei greeted the three of them.
The three of them took their seats.
After Li Mengxi sat down in the seat at the back, he curiously looked at the main seat. Li Mengxi was very curious about what kind of person Lu Zhi was.
I saw a middle-aged man of average height with a thin face sitting in the main seat.
This man had his hair randomly tied into a bun with a cloth band and a large cloak on his body. He had no armor, no harness, and no sword. He did not look like a commander leading troops in a war. Instead, he looked like the Confucian scholar in Li Mengxi's impression.
Somewhat imaginative.
Looking at his appearance, he has a wide forehead and low cheekbones, long eyes and thick eyebrows. He looks over with scrutiny.
Under his chin, there are three strands of long beard.
Different from Liu Guan and Zhang Ji, Liu Bei has a short beard under his chin, Zhang Fei has a full face with mustache, and Guan Yu has a full beard and drooping chest.
Lu Zhi, on the other hand, has three strands of beard.
When Li Mengxi looked at Lu Zhi curiously without fear of others, Lu Zhi also looked at Li Mengxi curiously.
From Lu Zhi's perspective, Lu Zhi looked Liu Bei's military advisor up and down with full of surprise and curiosity.
I saw that this was a young man who was at most ten years old. He was wearing coarse clothes and straw sandals. There was nothing special about his body except for a short knife hanging on his waist.
Looking at the boy's appearance, he is clean and delicate. Indeed, at his age, he is much cleaner than his peers.
When their eyes met, the young man smiled lightly.
Lu Zhi was in a daze. The young man was very calm and his eyes were very bright.
After coming back to his senses, Lu Zhi nodded secretly. No matter what, his calm and unusual demeanor was far beyond that of ordinary teenagers.
Li Mengxi and Lu Zhi looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes, which was extremely interesting.
Liu, Guan, and Zhang knew that these two people had noticed each other, which was very interesting.
A long time.
Lu Zhi nodded and smiled, "Little friend, you are young and young, so you can let Xuande accept the important task of military advisor from you. Why?"
Li Mengxi straightened up, bowed his hands to Lu Zhi, and said seriously, "No one else, Xuande Gong has a sharp ear for recognizing people."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After saying that, he bowed his hand to the shorter Liu Bei opposite.
"Ha ha!"
Lu Zhi was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
Wonderful, this young man spoke wonderfully. In one sentence, he praised himself, Liu Bei, and both of them.
What's more, this young man is quite conceited.
Lu Zhi smiled lightly and flicked his fingers on the table. As an elder, he said, "Xuande has worshiped my little friend as a military advisor. I must have extraordinary abilities."
"Of course." Li Mengxi refused to deny it and replied neither humble nor overbearing.
This is tantamount to admitting that you have extraordinary abilities.
Lu Zhi's smile became even brighter, "In that case, little friend, do you understand military strategy?"
"Since Master Lu talked about military strategy, I have a question. Can Master Lu answer it?"
Li Mengxi asked in response.
Lu Zhi extended his hand and said, "Please speak."
Li Mengxi cupped his hands towards Lu Zhi and said seriously.
"I heard that Master Lu was dismissed from military power because he did not bribe the traitor Zuo Feng, so he advanced to slander him. Is this possible?"
When mentioning the sad thing, Lu Zhi looked downcast and sighed, "It's true."
"Don't you hear that changing generals before battle is a taboo for military strategists? Why did Master Lu give up his military power when the imperial court made such a foolish move?" Li Mengxi asked.
