Chapter 29 Yuan Feng's Best Friend
"Yuan An?" Yuan Shu turned his head and called out to the door.
When Yuan An heard the call of his son, he immediately appeared at the door of Zou Rong's room. Yuan Shu, who was respectfully opposite him, said:
"Young master, the villain is here."
Yuan Shu ordered him:
"I'm going out with my father later, and now I'll leave some things to you.
Miss Zou Rong in the side room is my sweetheart.
You can find a few smart maids to serve you well and don’t neglect them.
In addition, buy more new clothes for Miss Zou, prepare more accessories and daily necessities, and buy the best ones, do you understand?"
Yuan An quickly nodded:
"The villain understands, don't worry, young master. If you are going to prepare now, you will definitely satisfy Miss Zou and the young master!"
Yuan An thought to himself that for the first time his young master loved a woman so much. It seems that I must not neglect this Miss Zou, otherwise I would just blow the pillow wind and maybe my life would be lost.
It seems that the young master still likes beautiful women. The young master who had a white face before should be just a close friend of the young master.
After settled down on the back house, Yuan Shu came to the main hall.
At this moment, Yuan Feng had already prepared a carriage and waited for him here.
Yuan Feng's carriage is made of best red sandalwood, and the horses pulling the carriage are also best dark horses.
The whole carriage looks very calm and atmospheric, low-key and restrained, which is completely opposite to Yuan Shu's gorgeous pretentious carriage.
For example, if Yuan Shu’s carriage is Ferrari Enzo, then Yuan Feng’s carriage is Rolls-Royce Cullinan.
Yuan Feng saw that Yuan Shu was coming on time, and his expression was much better to him.
He said to Yuan Shu: "Highway, get on the bus."
Yuan Shu followed Yuan Feng into the carriage one after another, and the carriage slowly drove out of the Yuan family under the control of the coachman.
"Dad, who is the famous teacher you found for me?"
When Yuan Feng scolds Yuan Shu on weekdays, Yuan Shu would call Yuan Feng ‘father’ or ‘father’.
If Yuan Feng is in a good mood and doesn't mess with him, just call him father.
Yuan Feng didn't have much demands on this son who was not stingy, as long as he didn't cause trouble.
In fact, under Yuan Feng's strict appearance, there is a gentle heart. He still loves his youngest son very much.
Yuan Feng said to Yuan Shu in a gentle tone at this time:
"Highway, the teacher I found for you this time is my father's close friend, Cai Yong, the current congressman. (Note 1)
This friend of my father is a famous Confucian scholar in my Han Dynasty. Everyone in Cai is not only proficient in Confucianism, but also knows the times, knows military skills, and is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
You must learn from him carefully. If you can learn 30% of his abilities, you will be able to benefit you for the rest of your life. Do you understand?"
Yuan Shu thought to himself: The great Confucian Cai Yong! This is definitely a great celebrity at the end of the Han Dynasty!
It seems that our father has also put his heart into it and is not just casually looking for a teacher to fool himself.
Fame was also very useful in the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty. If he became a disciple of Cai Yong, it would be beneficial for both becoming an official and recruiting talents. This is a good political resource.
Moreover, Cai Yong's daughter Cai Wenji is also very famous in history. I don't know if Cai Wenji was born during this period of time.
Yuan Shu was constantly thinking in his heart, and on the surface he still said to Yuan Feng very well:
"The child understands that everything is followed by his father, and he will definitely work hard to learn from Uncle Cai."
In Yuan Feng's mind, Yuan Shu is definitely a type of ignorant and unchanging after repeated teachings. No matter what he says to him, he can give him back.
Why is it so easy to talk and change your temper today?
No matter what the reason, Yuan Feng was still very pleased that Yuan Shu could become more well-behaved. He said with satisfaction:
"Just understand. When you succeed in your studies with Cai, you will be able to find a position in the court for you, so that you can make achievements in your career like your two brothers. Don't mess around in the city like the past."
The carriage slowly drove to the gate of Cai Yong's house.
Cai Yong's home also lives in the south of Luoyang City, perhaps because the scenery in the south of the city is relatively exquisite, which particularly attracts literati to live here.
As a famous scholar who has dominated the world, Cai Yong's house is quite large.
However, because Cai Yong advocated frugality, the decoration of the courtyard was not luxurious.
There were a few green bamboos planted in front of his door, showing his character as a literati.
The pine trees in the courtyard are tall, adding a simple and quaint charm to Cai Yong's mansion.
Because he had made an appointment with Yuan Feng long ago, and knew that he was going to bring Yuan Shu over, Cai Yong was waiting in front of the door early.
When Yuan Feng saw Cai Yong standing at the gate, he quickly asked the groom to stop the carriage and took Yuan Shu to walk over.
Yuan Shu carefully observed Cai Yong in front of him and saw that the man looked about forty years old, wearing a gray-white Confucian scholar robe and long beard.
He has a tall figure, and although he is not very old, he looks like a fairy-like look.
When he walked to the door of Cai's house, Yuan Feng bowed to Cai Yong and said:
"Brother Bo Ji, it's hot, why should you wait at the door? It's a mistake."
Seeing that Yuan Feng was so polite, Cai Yong bowed and said with a smile:
"Brother Zhou Yang, why should you be so polite with your relationship? I really miss you so much, so I'm waiting here."
Yuan Feng pulled Yuan Shu in front of him and said to Cai Yong:
"Brother Bo Ji, this is my dog son Yuan Shu. You must have heard of his reputation, which is too naughty.
My brother really had no choice but to send him to Brother Bo Ge, hoping that his elder brother could take him as a disciple so that he could embark on the right path in the future.
On the road, why don’t you meet Brother Bo Ji quickly?”
Hearing Yuan Feng call him, Yuan Shu quickly stepped forward and greeted Cai Yong and said:
"My nephew Yuan Shu, pay homage to Uncle Cai."
Cai Yong nodded and helped Yuan Shu up, and smiled at Yuan Feng:
"Since my brother has something to ask, how can I not do my best to be my brother? Today I will take Yuan Shu's nephew as a disciple, hoping that he can achieve success in his studies."
Yuan Feng said in surprise: "That's thank you brother!"
In fact, with Cai Yong's personality, the one he hates the most is a dissatisfied family like Yuan Shu.
These people are ignorant and have made no achievements except for making trouble. They do everything to corrupt the reputation of their ancestors.
To put it bluntly, these prodigal sons are just borers, and they are simply digging the foundations of the family and the great man.
If someone else recommends Yuan Shu to him, let alone accepting Yuan Shu as a disciple, saying more words to him would make Cai Yong bored.
But he had no choice but to have a good relationship with Yuan Feng, and Yuan Feng came to beg him personally, and he couldn't say anything about refusal.
Cai Yong is a very talented scholar. He cannot be lustful and mighty, and he is afraid that Yuan Feng will play the emotional card like him.
Cai Yong thought to himself that no matter how bad Yuan Shu was, he was still a young man, how bad could he be?
As long as I discipline myself strictly in the future, I may not be able to become a talent.
Thinking of this, Cai Yong's mood improved a little.
[Author's Off-title]: Note 1: Cai Yong, whose courtesy name is Boyi, was a famous official in the Eastern Han Dynasty, a writer, calligrapher, and the father of Cai Wenji, a talented woman.
