bastard seizes tang

Chapter 178
Li Ke's appearance is completely different from Ma Zhou's. Ma Zhou's clothes are poor and casual, and the bartender doesn't want to see him, but Li Ke is dressed in fine clothes and well-dressed.

Since Li Ke opened his mouth, he naturally didn't miss the money for the drinks. How could the bartender have any reason not to do business when he saw the door-to-door business.

Li Ke sat down in the private room, and the food and drinks to be ordered were ready. The middle-aged scholar Li Ke had seen downstairs just now was brought up by the bartender and appeared in front of Li Ke.

"Sir, he has a good capacity for alcohol. He can't get drunk after drinking for three days. I admire you." As soon as the middle-aged scholar entered the private room, Li Ke got up and said.

Qin Huaidao, who was beside Li Ke, didn't know why Li Ke wanted to show courtesy to this down-and-out scholar, but since Li Ke got up, it was inconvenient for him to sit aside, so he also stood up.

The bartender was worried that the middle-aged scholar would get drunk and cause trouble, which would annoy the distinguished guests, so he made a special trip to wash the middle-aged scholar's face with cold water before coming up.

When the middle-aged scholar saw Li Ke standing up, he didn't take it seriously. Instead, he looked down at the food and wine prepared on the table in front of Li Ke, and asked, "I heard from the bartender that the young master invited Ma to come up for a drink?"

Li Ke nodded and said, "Of course."

The middle-aged scholar then asked, "Is it enough?"

Li Ke said with a smile: "That's natural, even if you drink up this restaurant."

"That's good, good! Good!" The middle-aged scribe listened to Li Ke's words, and the smile on his face became stronger. He arranged his robes in a manner, and sat down opposite Li Ke.

Seeing the visitor sit down, Li Ke sat down himself, and asked the middle-aged scholar: "You and I met by chance, don't you know your name?"

The middle-aged scholar heard Li Ke's question, and replied inadvertently: "During the dismounting week, King Ma Bin is just a nobody at the moment, and the young master must have never heard of it."

Ma Zhou was born in Chiping County, Qinghe County. He was a child of a poor family, and he was not known to the world by his name.It had only been a few days since Ma Zhou entered Chang'an City, and the only person in Chang'an City who knew him was probably the bartender in the restaurant.

But Ma Zhou saw Li Ke's appearance, he must be a son of a family, he would know him, so he said this.

But others may not know Ma Zhou, but how can Li Ke not know?

"A phoenix and a phoenix soar to the clouds must be supported by wings. The sending of the thighs and brawns, sincerity lies in loyalty."

The most legendary prime minister during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, although Ma Zhou was born in a poor family and started from a humble beginning, he was able to seize the rare opportunity to rise to the top in just over ten years and finally reached the peak of the Tang Dynasty. How could Li Ke not know.

But looking at Ma Zhou's appearance, it is obvious that he has just arrived in Chang'an not long ago, and his opportunity has not yet appeared, so Ma Zhou is still an unknown person now, and it would be strange if Li Ke said that he knew him.

Li Ke said: "Although I have met you for the first time, my husband's temperament is very suitable for me, so I invite you to come up and have a drink together, and I hope you don't see outsiders."

Ma Zhou raised his hands, looked at his clothes, and said with a smile, "I, Ma Zhou, have fallen so far, and if you are willing to buy me a glass of wine, my lord, I am naturally happy to do so. There is nothing wrong with it."

After hearing Ma Zhou's words, Li Ke actually picked up the jug himself, walked to Ma Zhou's side, and wanted to fill the wine glass for Ma Zhou.

Li Ke's status, suddenly pouring wine for a down-and-out scholar, really startled Qin Huaidao who came with him, Qin Huaidao hurriedly stepped forward and said: "I'll pour this wine, how dare you bother my lord."

Seeing this, Li Ke stopped Qin Huaidao, who was about to go forward to take the jug, and said with a smile, "Mr. Ma and I hit it off right away, and I will pour this glass of wine myself."

After speaking, he picked up Ma Zhou's wine glass and poured a full glass for Ma Zhou.

Ma Zhou's literary talent was high, and he was pretentious, but he was not an arrogant person. Li Ke was the son of your family. Such a person suddenly condescended to pour wine for him, which really shocked Ma Zhou.

Li Ke is different from the bartender's arrogance, Li Ke treats him with courtesy, Ma Zhou will not neglect, Ma Zhou hurriedly took Li Ke's wine glass, thanked: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord, I am ashamed to accept it."

Li Ke said: "Sir, why bother to say the word 'ashamed' when you see outsiders, Mr. is a great talent, and sooner or later there will be a day of soaring to the sky. This glass of wine is my first congratulations for Mr.

After listening to Li Ke's words, Qin Huaidao finally understood Li Ke's meaning. It turned out that Li Ke intended to win over this down-and-out scholar, but what puzzled Qin Huaidao was that in Li Ke's capacity, what kind of talent he could not win over. He wanted to spend all his time on Ma Zhou.

After listening to Li Ke's words, Ma Zhou asked, "Right now Ma is in such a poor state, why does the young master still say this? Could it be that the young master also knows the art of face-to-face?"

Li Kedao: "the so-called 'husband's style is born on the ground, starting at the end of the green apple. Invading the valley, raging in the mouth of the soil bag.' Although Mr. is not ambitious at the moment, I think that Mr. is not an ordinary person, and he has extraordinary ambitions." , very talented, in today's prosperous and clear world, if you don't miss your talents, you will surely have a high-spirited day."

"Ha ha!"

After hearing Li Ke's words, Ma Zhou laughed loudly. He stood up, raised the wine glass in his hand, raised it to Li Ke, drank it down, and said loudly: "I, Ma Zhou, came from a poor family. But I am dissolute and unrestrained, I have been despised by many people all the way to this day, I never thought that in this small tavern today, there are people who know me."

Ma Zhou belonged to literature when he was young, and he was the top choice regardless of his literary talent, but because of his background, he was not valued by the people of the time, and he has been wasted until now.Today's Ma Zhou is in his thirties, he stood up a long time ago, but still achieves nothing, and his heart is depressed. It is rare to meet Li Ke who knows him today, so he is naturally relieved.

Li Ke said: "There are bole in the world, and then there are thousand-mile horses. There are always thousand-mile horses, but Bole is not always there. Mr. has the talent to govern the world. If you don't get the favor of noble people, it will inevitably be difficult to get ahead."

Li Ke's words hit Ma Zhou's heart. Ma Zhou nodded and said excitedly, "However, there are many mediocre people in the world, but few people can know people. The words of Mr. Bo Le are very close to my heart."

Seeing this, Li Ke followed Ma Zhou's words and asked, "Since that's the case, I don't know if the master has any plans for the next step."

In just a few words, Ma Zhou already regarded Li Ke as a confidant, and replied: "General Zhonglang and I were old acquaintances, and this time we are going to Beijing to join our old friends."

Hearing this, Li Ke asked, "Chang He? Chang He is a military general who doesn't know how to write and ink. How can he be a gentleman?"

Chang He official worshiped Zhonglang General, because he opened the Xuanwu Gate for Li Shimin and made great achievements, so he was cited as a confidant, and if Li Ke remembered correctly, Ma Zhou, the top Tang history, wrote the memorial for Chang He But it entered Li Shimin's eyes, and he has been leaning on him ever since.

But what Li Ke said was not unreasonable in Ma Zhou's ears.

Civil and military have different paths, Chang He is a military official, but Ma Zhou wants to follow the literary, there is a big difference between the two.

However, since Li Ke said so, there was a reason for it, so Ma Zhou asked, "I wonder if you have any good words?"

Li Ke said: "How about I come to be Mr. Bole?"

Ever since Ma Zhou met Li Ke at the first sight, he knew that Li Ke was not an ordinary person. Now that Li Ke said so, he became more and more sure.

Ma Zhou asked, "Did you ask about your noble name?"

Li Ke replied slowly: "My surname is Li, and the single name is Ke."
