Three Kingdoms: Heir of Wolong, my father-in-law is Guan Gong

Chapter 16 Shiren was deceived and became lame

After sending Zhang Bao away, Zhuge Qiao took out the bamboo slips, briefly summarized today's events, and recorded tomorrow's plans on the bamboo slips.

It is Zhuge Qiao's habit to act in a planned manner.

When he was in Xichuan, Zhuge Liang noticed Zhuge Qiao's habit and systematically trained Zhuge Qiao.

At the same time, Zhuge Liang also discussed with Zhuge Qiao how to plan and summarize in the most time-saving and labor-saving way.

The plan proposed by Zhuge Qiao was to simplify the font.

Using simplified characters to record can not only save time and effort, but also maintain confidentiality.

In the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" recorded last night, Zhuge Qiao used traditional Chinese characters, because the recording of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" was originally designed to disguise the character of the layman who wrote the annotation of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic".

But the font Zhuge Qiao just used to summarize on the bamboo piece is the simplified Chinese character of later generations.

In the mansion of the military advisor general in Xichuan, there is a pile of bamboo slips, on which more than two thousand comparison tables of traditional Chinese characters and simplified Chinese characters are recorded.

That was prepared by Zhuge Qiao alone for Zhuge Liang.

The next day.

Zhuge Qiao did not go to find Liao Hua, but kept studying in the post house.

Today is the third day since Zhuge Qiao arrived in Jiangling City.

Zhuge Qiao was waiting for Mi Fang's reaction.

Let Mi Zhu go to see Pan Jun, not only to let Mi Zhu test Pan Jun's reaction, but also to distract Mi Zhu and give Mi Fang a chance to send people to find Zhuge Qiao.

Because Zhang Bao was too bored, he made an appointment with Guan Xing to go fishing by the river, but he was also not at the post house.

By now, it was nine o'clock in the morning.

The school swordsman who was on guard outside came to report, and General Shiren came to look for Mi Zhu.

"General Mi is not in the post house, so General Shi can go elsewhere." Zhuge Qiao said without hesitation.

The school swordsman said: "My subordinates also responded in the same way, but General Shi said that he is leaving Jiangling City today and would like to invite Mr. Qiao to see him."

"If you want to see me, just say it clearly. You have to go around the bush." ​​Zhuge Qiao felt contempt in his heart and put down the book in his hand: "General, please come in."

Zhuge Qiao had already guessed the purpose of Shiren coming to the post house.

Searching for Zhuge Qiao in the name of looking for Mi Zhu would not be Shiren's idea, it must be Mi Fang's intention.

Not long after.

Shi Renjian stepped inside and asked Zhuge Qiao for courtesy.

Zhuge Qiao asked the school swordsman to stand outside the door, invited Shiren to come to the table, and knowingly asked, "I don't know if General Shiren is here to see me. Do you have something important to do?"

Shiren was not polite and sat across from Zhuge Qiao: "I have been entrusted by someone, and I am here to give a gift to Mr. Qiao this time."

"Oh?" Zhuge Qiao pretended to be surprised: "I have no old friends in Jiangling City, who will give me gifts?"

Shiren smiled and said, "Young Master Qiao is humbled. With his status and reputation as a military advisor and general, there are not many people in Jiangling City who want to give gifts to Young Master Qiao."

"Prefect Mi was busy with official duties when he was inspecting Nanjun, and he was worried about neglecting Mr. Qiao, so he prepared four beauties and told me to deliver the beauties to Mr. Qiao personally."

It turned out to be a gift for a beauty.

This Mi Fang is indeed a businessman in nature. She either gives away money or beauties. This is corrupting me!

Zhuge Qiao pretended to be hesitant: "General Shi, I appreciate Governor Mi's kindness. But now I'm here to propose marriage to you. If I accept Governor Mi's beauty, I might make you unhappy."

Seeing that Zhuge Qiao did not refuse directly, Shiren suddenly realized that something was wrong: "Young Master Qiao is worrying too much. With his status as Young Master Qiao, shouldn't he be able to have a few beauties serving him?"

"There are beauties in the prince's palace, so how can I blame you, Mr. Qiao, for keeping beauties secretly?"

"Master Qiao, why don't you take a look first? If you don't like it, it won't be too late to refuse!" Shiren didn't wait for Zhuge Qiao to answer, and asked the four beauties outside the door to come forward.

have to say.

Although Shiren's character was not good, his vision was very vicious.

These four beauties from the Jiangnan water town can be said to be the best in both beauty and temperament.

Under Shiren's expectant eyes, Zhuge Qiao pretended to be obsessed with beauties, and his tone became a little more reluctant: "Let Taishou Mi worry about it. But right now, I really can't accept these beauties."

After saying that, Zhuge Qiao pretended to sigh again.

Seeing this, Shiren asked the beauty to step back first, and then lowered his voice: "If Mr. Qiao has something to hide, you might as well say it openly."

Zhuge Qiao was about to speak but stopped.

After a long time, Zhuge Qiao finally spoke slowly: "General Shi has just arrived in Jiangling City, so I'm afraid he doesn't know much yet. The Lord asked me to check Prefect Mi's account."

Shiren was taken aback: "Checking Prefect Mi's account? Why is this?"

Zhuge Qiao shook his head: "I don't know either. But the Lord has said that as long as I check the account of Prefect Mi clearly, he will agree to my marriage proposal."

"This time I came to Jiangling City on my father's order to ask for the prince's daughter to marry. If I cause the prince's dissatisfaction by accepting these four beauties."

"When I return to Xichuan, it will be difficult for me to explain to my father."

"General Shi, please go back and tell Prefect Mi: Father's orders cannot be violated. I can only handle this matter on an official basis."

When Shiren came, he had not yet received the information that Guan Yu asked Zhuge Qiao to check the accounts, and he could not help but be horrified at this moment.

"Why did Guan Yu ask Zhuge Qiao to check the accounts at this time?"

"Could it be that Brother Zifang's accounts gave Guan Yu some clues?"

"No, it's impossible. Although Liao Hua is not bad at it, he is still much worse than Brother Zifang. Liao Hua doesn't have this ability!"

"Could it be that Zhuge Qiao is deceiving me?"

"We have to discuss this with Brother Zifang as soon as possible."

Shiren was just a knight from Youzhou and had never read much. Fortunately, he had been with Liu Bei for decades before he achieved what he has today. Shiren couldn't understand the twists and turns in this.

Thinking of this, Shiren suddenly couldn't sit still.

Just when Shiren was about to leave, Zhuge Qiao said again: "There is one more thing that puzzles me. General Shiren has been in Nanjun for many years. Can you help me clear up my confusion?"

Shiren was surprised in his heart, but on the surface he was very generous: "Master Qiao is too modest. If I can clear up the confusion, I will definitely tell you everything."

Zhuge Qiao pretended, "Yesterday Pan Zhu came to see me and asked me to check the accounts of the Jingchu Chamber of Commerce. Does the Jingchu Chamber of Commerce have anything to do with the accounts of Prefect Mi?"

Pan Zhu, that son of a bitch!

Shiren couldn't help but curse secretly.

Mi Fang sold weapons to the barbarians and sold the barbarians' furs to Chu merchants in Jiangdong. This was done through the Jingchu Chamber of Commerce.

Pan Zhu asked Zhuge Qiao to come and check the accounts of the Jingchu Chamber of Commerce. Isn't this just trying to make people angry?
  "Mr. Qiao, I privately think that it is better not to investigate the accounts of the Jingchu Chamber of Commerce." Shiren was anxious and directly pointed out the conflict with Pan Zhu: "In the past, when Prefect Mi wanted to form the Jingchu Chamber of Commerce, Zhizhong Pan Jun is firmly opposed to it."

"Pan Zhu deliberately asked Young Master Qiao to investigate the accounts of the Jingchu Chamber of Commerce. He must have wanted to cause a conflict between Young Master Qiao and Prefect Mi, so that Pan Jun could benefit."

"Master Qiao, don't fall into Pan Zhu's scheme!"

"Who is Taishou Mi? Taishou Mi's sister is my lord's former wife. If Young Master Qiao conflicts too much with Taishou Mi, won't it make it difficult for the military advisor and general to do his job?"
