Han Xiang

Chapter 425

Xu Shu immediately thought of Zhuge Liang, that real and proud Wolong.

It's a pity that when they were guests at Sima Hui's house before, Zhuge Liang, Shi Tao and others expressed their views. They all looked down on Liu Bei who was under the fence. Xu Shu thought that even recommending him would be unnecessary.

During the period of joining Liu Bei, Xu Shu felt Liu Bei's sincerity, and understood Liu Bei's lofty ambitions and far-reaching plans.

But, can I convince Kong Ming?

When Xu Shu frowned and thought, Liu Bei looked at Liu Ye with a smile.

"Yun Qi is indeed extremely intelligent. I think he is referring to Mr. Shui Jing. Unfortunately, although Mr. Shui Jing is talented, he is a hermit who does not want to be born."

Liu Ye said to him, "General Long can conclude from my letter that Yuan Zhi has a talented friend in Jingzhou. This reminds me of him calculating the date of Sun Ce's death. Therefore, I suggest that Yuan Zhi should seriously consider it. This may be General Long's special ability."

"A three-year agreement? I've heard Yide talk about it before, it's really incredible." Xu Shu's frown remained on his forehead.

Liu Bei interrogated and asked: "If Yun Qi had nothing to rely on, he wouldn't have sent Xu Wei thousands of miles to send a message, and just talking about this matter, he is now in trouble for Zhang Lu's matter, if Yuan Zhi's friend in Jingzhou, Mr. Yi Shui Jing is the most knowledgeable, maybe he has a clever plan to break the situation, why don't you lead me to his house?"

Seeing Xu Shu frowning and shaking his head after Liu Bei finished speaking, he continued to ask: "Mr. Shui Jing is really isolated from the world? I just go to ask for countermeasures? I don't necessarily ask him to go down the mountain."

"No."

Xu Shu shook his head, clasped his hands and replied, "General Long's citation of scriptures is very appropriate. Things of a kind gather people into groups. I have indeed made many friends in Jingzhou, and many of them are well-educated. Although Decao (Sima Hui) has the highest reputation, Jingxiang also has great talents who study heaven and man."

"Oh?"

Liu Bei was delighted to see Lie Xin, and his body leaned forward slightly, obviously looking forward to the next words.

Xu Shu asked Liu Bei: "My lord has been in Jingzhou for a long time, should I know the origin of the word 'water mirror'?"

"I've heard about it." Liu Bei nodded slightly, "This name was awarded by the famous man Pang Gong. Liu Jingsheng asked him to come out of the mountain, but it has always been a pity. I should have gone to Xianshan to seek peace and security, but I was afraid that Cai Kuai and others would be suspicious and attack me, so I haven't made it yet."

Xu Shu nodded in agreement: "My lord is right that he didn't go. Although Pang Gong is an amazing talent, his recluse attitude is more than morality. He should never be an official in his life."

"It's a pity that a man with a talent that shocks the world is so empty under the old forest."

When Liu Bei frowned and sighed, Xu Shu immediately made the point.

"In addition to being the crown of virtue, Mr. Pang also crowned two other heroes of Jingxiang, which are called Wolong and Fengchu."

"Crouching dragon, Phoenix chick?"

Everyone in the hall looked at each other after listening.

The names of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong are only circulated in a small area at present, and they are not as famous as Sima Hui, so this is the first time everyone has heard of them.

Curious, Liu Ye pressed his beard and asked: "If you dare to be crowned as a dragon and a phoenix, your talent must be very important. Why don't Yuan Zhi talk about it in detail?"

Xu Shu nodded slightly, and raised his hand to point out the door, only to see the wind and snow rolling in the courtyard.

"Fengchu is Pangtong of Xiangyang, whose name is Shiyuan; Wolong is Zhuge Liang of Langya, whose name is Kongming; both of them have the ability to know the world, if they get one, they will be able to secure the world."

Crouching dragon and phoenix chick, one can secure the world.

This sentence made Liu Bei's heart itch, but when he heard the surname Pang Tong, he immediately thought of the Pang family in Jingzhou, so he asked softly, "Who is Mr. Fengchu and Mr. Pang?"

Xu Shu replied: "Pang Shiyuan is the son of Duke Pang, and he has a bright future with the Pang family in Jingzhou. He will definitely not follow the master at this time, but Zhuge Kongming can give it a try."

"Yuan Zhi said Jingzhou Junjie before, but when he introduced Mr. Wolong just now, he said he was from Langya, Xuzhou. I don't know."

Hearing Liu Bei's question, Xu Shu explained with a smile: "Kong Ming has immigrated to Jingzhou for many years. His eldest sister married Kuai Qi as his wife, and his second sister married Pang Shanmin, the son of Duke Pang.

"My good fellow, I heard from the military advisor that all the powerful and powerful families in Jingzhou seem to have a close relationship with Wolong and Fengchu?"

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong had deep backgrounds in Jingzhou, and the gold content of Wolong and Fengchu was immediately discounted in everyone's hearts, but Zhang Fei, who had the most straightforward temper, directly expressed his views.

Xu Shu heard Zhang Fei's teasing, and said bluntly: "The fact is true, but with their talents and learning, they are enough to deserve this title."

"Military Master, I don't know how old Wolong and Fengchu are? Why do I feel that they are very young?"

Guan Yu, who had been silent all this time, also raised his own questions at this time.

Xu Shu frowned and thought for a while, then answered truthfully: "I remember that Shi Yuan was born in the second year of Guanghe, and his actual age should be twenty-three today, and Kong Ming is two years younger than Shi Yuan."

"What? So young?"

Guan Yu had been half-closed his Danfeng eyes, and when he heard that Zhuge Liang was only 21, he immediately looked at Xu Shu with wide eyes.

Then he pointed to Liu Ye and asked, "Mr. Ziyang and the military adviser have passed by and stood together, and they didn't boast about their talents. The two yellow-mouthed boys were crowned as Wolong and Fengchu. I'm afraid Mr. Pang deliberately flattered them?"

"Absolutely not."

Xu Shu stretched out his hand to interrupt, and said solemnly: "De Cao once appraised Shi Yuan as the most famous scholar in Nanzhou. If he didn't have real talent and learning, he would not be able to get this appreciation. Zhuge Kongming and I are close friends.

"Guan, Le? This guy has a big tone."

Guan Yu is familiar with the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period and is well aware of the deeds of Guan Zhong and Le Yi. At this time, he sneered at Kong Ming to defend his own cognition.

Xu Shu was about to explain to Guan Yu, but was interrupted by Liu Bei.

"Second brother, be safe and don't be impatient. Talented people have been so frivolous since ancient times. Listen to Yuan Zhi before it's too late. Since Yuan Zhi and Wolong are close friends, and there is no outsider present, can you explain to us, how is Kong Mingzhi better than you?"

Xu Shu saw that Liu Guan and Zhang questioned each other, but Liu Ye looked solemn, and he couldn't help shaking his head.

"Zi Yang became famous at a young age. You should know that knowledge has little to do with age. Although I am ten years old than Kong Ming, I often feel ashamed in front of him. If you look at the light of a firefly, the light is like the brightness of a bright moon."

"Sure?"

Liu Bei strode forward, holding Xu Shu's hand with both hands.

I was very excited at that time, Xu Shu was already a rare wise man, if Zhuge Liang lived up to his name, wouldn't he be a immortal immortal?

Xu Shu said solemnly: "There is no lie."

"Since the two of you are close friends, you should know where Mr. Wolong's fairyland is. Please ask the military commander to invite him to Wancheng as soon as possible, and help the Han Dynasty together with us. Wouldn't it be great?"

Liu Bei held Xu Shu's hand and kept shaking it.

Xu Shu could feel Liu Bei's sincerity, but he shook his head and said, "You can see this person, you can't give in, my lord should take care of him in vain."
