Chapter 39

"Liu Shijun has no talent for kings and hegemony, nor is he the master of chaos. This is the misfortune of the Han family and the great fortune of Jingzhou."

After listening to Liu Jing's long speech on Liu Biao, Zhuge Liang could only admire in his heart, and the eyes of the two Zhuge girls were even more admiring.

Zhuge Xuan was equally amazed, Liu Jing didn't behave like a 17-year-old boy, even Liuhou Zhang Liang and Grand Tutor Deng Yu were at his age, it would be difficult for him to have such insight!

Is there really a god-given talent in the world?Otherwise, how will Liu Jing explain it?

The only thing that made Zhuge Xuan feel a little inappropriate was that when Liu Jing talked about Liu Biao, his words were too wild and lacking in humility.

You must know that Liu Biao is the master of Jingzhou. If Liu Jingri wants to make a difference in the future, he must go to Xiangyang. Even so, he still speaks without restraint, which shows that he is extremely conceited. This is not a good thing, and it may even be because of this calamity.

However, these words seemed to be superficial for him, and he seemed to be relying on the old to sell the old, so he asked his nephew Zhuge Liang to find an opportunity to persuade him in private.From his point of view, Liu Jing is humble on the outside but proud on the inside, and I'm afraid he is not someone who can easily listen to other people's opinions.

Liu Jing didn't know what Zhuge Xuan was thinking. If he knew, he would have laughed it off. There was no way to explain this kind of thing. Could he say that he was not conceited, but made an objective and rational evaluation from the perspective of a traveler. .

Of course, as a traveler with the ability of prophets, facing the ancients, it is inevitable that he will feel a little superior psychologically, which is normal.

Liu Jingdao: "I wonder if Mr. Zhuge heard that Zhu Hao and Zhu Wenming died."

Zhuge Xuan was Yuzhang who was kicked out by Zhu Hao. The former, as a loser, survived in the end, while Zhu Hao, as a winner, lost his life instead.

Zhuge Xuan nodded lightly, his expression unusually calm: "I heard about it yesterday, but I didn't expect him to die at the hands of 'my own'."

It was Ruo Rong, the leader of Xuzhou Buddhism who killed Zhu Hao. He relied on his fellow Xuzhou Mu Taoqian and became the Prime Minister of Xiapi.On the way back to his hometown of Yangzhou, he successively killed Zhao Yu, governor of Guangling, and Xue Li, governor of Pengcheng, and Zhu Hao, governor of Yuzhang, was the No.3 victim.

Zhe Rong returned to his hometown Yangzhou to defect to Yangzhou Mu Liu Yao, who was sent to Yuzhang to assist Zhu Hao. At that time, Zhuge Xuan had already been defeated. Zhe Rong covetted the great county of Yuzhang.

Knowing the news of the death of his opponent Zhu Hao, Zhuge Xuan no longer harbored any hatred in his heart, but felt a bit of pity. He only recently heard that his father Zhu Jun died of an illness in Chang'an in February this year. Before he died, did he receive the bad news of his father's death?

Both father and son died in the same year, sad husband!

Zhuge Liang hated Ruo Rong very much in his heart, and his tone was full of anger: "A shameless villain like Ruo Rong, who betrays his trust and repays his kindness, is able to run amok and do whatever he wants in the world. What a dangerous world this is!"

If Zhuge Liang knew that Ruo Rong still had a memorial site in later generations, he would probably be so angry that he vomited blood.

Zhe Rong was a despicable and cruel person with blood on his hands. He could be called a heinous person. However, he has a very special position in the history of Buddhism. What a great irony.

Liu Jing advised: "Kong Ming doesn't need to be angry with such a villain. Ruo Rong is greedy and forgets righteousness. He is a short-sighted person. He killed Zhao Yu, the prefect of Guangling, and Xue Li, the minister of Pengcheng. That's why he was safe and sound." , all because Tao Qian can't take care of himself. Now killing Zhu Hao without authorization will surely anger Liu Yao, and the time for this man to be extinct from the world is numbered."

Zhuge Xuanyi said: "Liu Yousu came to see the Zhongming Festival and cherished his feathers. As the lord of Yangzhou, if he could not avenge Zhu Hao, the rest of the counties would definitely be cold-hearted and leave him, and even though Yangzhou would be big by then, there would be no place to stand on it. land."

Zhuge Liang naturally could see that since ancient times and now, people like this have never had a good end, and the end of Zhe Rong has long been doomed.The same goes for Cao Cao.

It may be that the topic was too serious before, which made the atmosphere a little dignified. Afterwards, the three of them deliberately changed their talk about literature and calligraphy, which gradually eased the atmosphere.

Only then did the two Zhuge girls finally have the opportunity to speak and join the discussion among the three.

As the daughters of the Qilu noble family, the two Zhuge girls have a high level of education, not weaker than their sister-in-law Lai Ci.

Fortunately, he said early on that he "likes to read, and does not stick to the chapters and sentences."

After all, Zhuge Xuan was ill, and after sitting for more than half an hour, he felt out of energy. Seeing Liu Jing talking happily with his two nieces, his heart moved, and he asked, "I don't know if Zhong Da was married?"

Liu Jing couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Zhuge Liang who was beside him, and saw that he was also stunned.

In a flash of thought, Liu Jing said: "I already have a fiancée who has been controlled by my parents since childhood, she is a girl from the Deng family in Nanyang. If there is no accident, I will get married next year or next year."

"So that's how it is." Zhuge Xuan sighed inwardly, Liu Jing actually had a fiancée who was born in the "Feng Clan", so he had to stop thinking.

The Nanyang Deng family can be regarded as one of the best in the world. It once had two empresses, but it cannot be regarded as a family of noble relatives. Beginning with Tai Fu Deng Yu, the Nanyang Deng family has always insisted on passing on Confucian classics for more than 100 years. This is also an important reason why they have been revived after several declines.

Nanyang Deng has repeatedly produced "Phoenix", and Liu Jing's fiancee must also be extremely outstanding.

The two Zhuge girls are not deep in the palace, and their pretty faces are full of disappointment.

On the other hand, Zhuge Liang was only slightly regretful and put it down quickly.

To avoid embarrassment on both sides, Liu Jing took the opportunity to bid farewell to Zhuge Xuan.

Zhuge Liang also followed, came to the hall on the first floor, and solemnly apologized to Liu Jing: "Zhong Da actually has a fiancée. If I had known earlier, this embarrassing situation would not have happened today."

Liu Jing smiled and said: "I can't blame you for this. Marriage with fingertips is rare in the world, and I have never mentioned it to you. ——Kong Ming, your two older sisters are both outstanding in appearance and talent. A rare and beautiful woman in the world, she will definitely find a good husband in the future."

"I hope it is as Zhongda said." Zhuge Liang finally smiled.

Liu Jing glanced at the missing engraving placed in the hall. Today, he is the host, and he must be there early. He said to Zhuge Liang, "It's getting late, let's go now."

"it is good."

The two walked out of the gate of Duting side by side, headed west, entered the West City through the south gate, followed the crowded crowd all the way to the front of the restaurant.

In the Han Dynasty, there was no written signboard at this time. A sheep-shaped wine bottle decorated with a sheep's head was hung at the door of the restaurant as a symbol. Even a three-year-old child would know what the wine bottle represented. , has the meaning of auspiciousness.

There are many people in front of the restaurant. There are commoners in simple brown clothes, businessmen in luxurious long robes, and scholars in painted brocade robes. They stand staggered, and the picture is surprisingly harmonious. At this moment, they They are all alcoholics in terms of identity, and there is no distinction between superiors and inferiors.
