After hearing what Huayang Wei said, the second son felt a little dumbfounded, but in order for the banquet to proceed smoothly, he praised: "The king and grandson's proposal is very in line with etiquette. The Xu family is from outside, so it is appropriate to accompany guests."
Captain Huayang looked at Subian and said, "My charioteer and charioteer are all relatives. After the king of Han, I will definitely not humiliate you."
Sub'an bowed his head and said: "I am grateful for the honor given by the king and grandson. However, I follow the king's order and go hand in hand with my fathers and dare not leave each other. I am willing to give up the official uniform and serve as a servant."
Huayang Wei said: "Young Master is young, I'm afraid I won't be able to teach you. I heard that a scholar's work is in the world, and it is in the mind and body, not in the crown and clothes. Since the son serves the princes, the distinction between monarch and ministers has been determined, and the relationship between them is close. The dignity and inferiority have been established, and no crown or uniform can shake it."
Lu Bo suddenly whispered from behind: "Follow it!" Sub'an was stunned, knowing that Lu Bo wanted him to sit at the teacher's table. Although it was difficult to predict whether it would be good or bad, he could only grit his teeth and said: "Wang and Sun have taught me a lesson, and I will accept it. I wish. Teach.”
The person sitting at the bottom of the table said, "Good, good!" He left the table and helped Subo'an up. Under the introduction from the right side of the car, Subo'an met the teachers one by one and sat down at the bottom with an uncertain look on his face, not knowing what was going to happen.
This exchange of courtesy took a long time, and during the dinner, the two of them were still lying on the ground, not daring to raise their heads. After Xu Bo'an sat down, Captain Huayang turned around and dismissed the remaining two people: "As a merchant, you should know that your position is humble and your body is humble. Although you are rich, you can only look down on the court. Even if you are a farmer and a worker, you should be restrained, let alone a scholar. !”
Er Lu couldn't reply, so he had to endure the humiliation and bow down.
Captain Huayang said: "Since the two sons have returned their love and have good intentions again, I will still grant you a seat."
Lu Bo said: "I am a commoner, but I dare not sit across from a nobleman."
Captain Huayang said: "Since you have entered the country, you should follow the village etiquette, so you should sit with the doctor in civilian clothes. Don't have any doubts." The second son stood up, helped Er Lu and sent him back to the table. Er Lu's face was full of shame, and he didn't know why such an unreasonable disaster came out of thin air.
After the two sons returned to their seats, Lu Bo tried his best to mobilize his only rationality and whispered to Lu Zhong: "Wake up!" Lu Zhong did not dare to show any expression and just said "hmm" from his nose. Lu Bo looked at Sub'an again and saw that he was also sitting on pins and needles and restless. He wanted to signal to Subian to calm down, but Subian didn't look this way at all. He just lowered his head and looked at his nose, nose, mouth, and eyes without squinting. Lu Bo secretly complained in his heart, knowing that he was completely defeated in this confrontation, but he still didn't know what this polite and demanding Captain Huayang wanted to do: Is it just inappropriate etiquette? Hope so!
Uncle Tang, who was the butler of the tomb in the hall, witnessed the whole process. Seeing Erlu and Suban's confusion, he felt a little uneasy. However, Uncle Tang was in the position of a bystander and still had some room to think: "Is this Huayang Wei's usual method? Why didn't Mr. Bai mention it at all? Seeing Mr. Bai's behavior, it seemed a little unexpected. It shouldn't be... What does Captain Huayang want to do?"
There was a seating dispute. When we just sat down, the scene was a little cold. As the guest, Bai Gen worked hard and presided over a series of rituals: the guests and hosts met each other, drank libations, and exchanged greetings... This time, nothing unexpected happened to Captain Huayang. He followed Bai Gen's praises and bowed in a formal manner. When paying for wine, Huayang Lieutenant and Erlu paid each other courteously, as if nothing unpleasant had happened. Er Lu took advantage of the opportunity of mutual reward to remind Subian in a low voice. After three consecutive rounds of reward, a jar of clear water will be used up. The unhappiness before the banquet disappeared in these three rounds of mutual entertainment.
When Uncle Tang was serving wine in the hall, he divided the meat in the cauldron. After the exchange of rewards, Zhu Tang brought out the food utensils under Bai Gen's praise. After the guests and hosts followed the diet and sacrificed the food, they began to chew. From the beginning of the banquet, Lu Bo quietly observed Captain Huayang and found nothing unusual. He wondered in his heart: Is this just for etiquette? Why was there no further action?
Suddenly, the corners of Lu Bo's eyes twitched, and out of the corner of his eye, Captain Hua Yang stood up and walked towards Subo'an, who was sitting at the bottom of the table. When Sub'an saw Captain Huayang approaching, he quickly became wise and saluted loudly: "Greetings to Han Wangsun!" He successfully attracted everyone's attention to him.
Captain Huayang didn't care, Shi Shiran sat down next to Subian, took a date from the table in front of Subian and put it into his mouth, then picked up Subian's meat soup and took a sip. He handed it to Subian and said, "It tastes very delicious!" Subian took it, put it on the table, put his hands on his chest and said, "It's very delicious!"
Captain Huayang said, "How many cars do you have for this gentleman's trip?"
Suban asked: "The car is about a hundred times long?"
Captain Huayang said: "Where do you want to go with a hundred chariots?"
Sub'an said: "I want to go to Kaifeng and transport grain to the state of Zheng."
Captain Huayang burst out laughing when he heard this and said: "From Qifeng...? Transporting grain to Zheng...? The gentleman made a mistake! ...The gentleman made a mistake!"
Sub'an was puzzled by the laughter and said, "May Wang and Sun teach you a lesson!"
Captain Huayang stopped laughing and said, "I have a good man, what do you want me to do?"
Sub'an said: "I would like to hear the details."
Captain Huayang said: "I have food and thousands of stones, and I want you to go and unblock me. What do you think, gentleman?"
Sub'an's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Er Lu involuntarily. Lu Bo's expression remained unchanged, and he quietly put his fingers out of his sleeves and made a gesture to signal Subo'an to agree to everything first.
Wei Huayang glanced at Er Lu's table with a nonchalant look, and said seriously to Suban: "Do you want me to play with you? When the Qin people enter Qifeng, yes or no?"
Sub'an said: "Yes."
Wei Huayang said: "Do you know that the people of Qin bought grain in Qifeng?"
Sub'an said: "But I have heard it, but I don't know the details."
Wei Huayang said: "The people of Qin buy grain for fifty or sixty yuan per stone. Do you know that? When you buy grain in Qifeng, no matter how much food is left in the army, the price of grain is only fifty or sixty yuan. You still want to sell it to Zheng Guo." Huh? My family in the state of Zheng knows its price, thirty stones."
Sub'an said: "If this is the case, what can be done?"
Huayang Wei said: "Therefore, I discussed with the gentleman. The gentleman has hundreds of chariots and buys grain from Huayang and goes to Qifeng to sell it. Only then can we get a plan."
Sub'an said: "Fortunately, the king and grandson taught me a lesson, so I can avoid disaster. I should discuss this with my fathers because I am humble."
Captain Huayang sneered and said, "Fathers, why don't you say something when you see me at the banquet?" Then he said to his opponent, "I'm sorry for what you said, sir, but I don't know what you think?"
Er Lu was not prepared for the other party to shout directly, and was caught off guard and said in panic: "What King Han said makes sense!"
Lieutenant Huayang's next words made Er Lu even more dumbfounded: "I'll leave it to you sir, thank you."
Er Lu couldn't get over it for a long time, so he said: "I dare not resign from the king's and grandson's orders... What can I ask?"
Captain Huayang suddenly changed his expression and said, "What I just said, do you think it's ridiculous?"
Seeing that Captain Huayang was angry, Er Lu hurriedly avoided the table and bowed, saying: "I am a common man who is ignorant and cannot understand what the noble man said. I hope that the noble man can speak clearly."
Captain Huayang pointed angrily at Subaan and said, "Whatever you say!"
Sub'an also hurriedly got off the table and worshiped with Er Lu, saying: "Even a humble person doesn't know its purpose."
Captain Huayang became more and more angry, raised his hand, grabbed a sauce plate, and threw it in front of Subo'an.
