When Ji Han and his men traveled to the Three Kingdoms crew

Chapter 240 'Are you Zhuge Liang?'

"It's easy to count the number of Wuxi barbarians!"

Liao Li, who had taken great pains to complete the government affairs, felt extremely good about himself. There must be only a few people in the world who could handle it so quickly and safely, right?
Just when he was thinking he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw Shi Tao beside him picking up another stack, and he was shocked by how fast he did it.

He wondered in his heart, could it be that this person was just pretending?
The doubt made Liao Li feel itchy. He couldn't help but stand up, walk behind Shi Tao and look at him carefully. He saw the beautiful handwriting on the jute paper and the sharp words. All the events were handled in an orderly manner. Even he wanted to subconsciously say good.

He subconsciously glanced at what he had written and compared it with what Shi Tao had written.

It's really like comparing a poor horse to a good one, worthless shit!

But Liao Li would not admit it. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Shi Shuzuo, you have been in the envoy's army for a long time, right? I see that you have outstanding talents. Why are you willing to be a minor official?"

"It's been a long time indeed, as for talent."

Shi Tao acted as if he had heard a funny joke. He smiled and shook his head. His tone was particularly calm, as if he was narrating a trivial matter that was perfectly normal.

"Mr. Liao, why do you think I am so talented? I just did my job. Many of my colleagues here are far better than me. My ability is only enough to serve as a secretary. If I can serve as a Cao official, I will be very happy in my life."

"How can he be like Liao Jun, a genius?"

Clearly, those were words of praise, and the tone didn't sound sarcastic, but Liao Li felt as if the invisible words had turned into a visible slap in the face, causing his face to hurt unbearably.

In the end, he said nothing and sat down silently.

During this period of time, Liao Li was always troubled by official duties. He really was too embarrassed to ask Shi Tao for help. As for other officials, they really handled official duties with ease as Shi Tao said.

What surprised him even more was that the soldiers on guard duty could read and write.

Even the haggard-looking father-in-law named Le, who was responsible for their food every day, could speak eloquently.

For the first time in his life, Liao Li felt frustrated.

What made him even more powerless was that one day when he was marching to Jiangxia, he encountered robbers on the road. The robbers drew out their icy long swords and fought with the Wuxi barbarians. The moment he saw the blood spurting out, he couldn't help but shiver all over. In contrast, a young man from the Huo family, who was the same age as him, rushed forward with a sword without even frowning.

Is he really just an ordinary person?

Is he really so ordinary?

No, he also had a dream from an immortal!
"General."

"Victory!"

In the tent, Liu Bei was overjoyed to see the news of victory coming in. The fighting power of the Wuxi barbarians was much stronger than that of the rebels. He did not need Xu Shu's help to deal with these mere robbers. He could win the battle alone. Therefore, he divided his troops into two groups. He personally led one group from Wuling, and Xu Shu led the other group to the north to aid Jiangxia.

Xuzhou
dongyang
The once inconspicuous county has now become bustling, with peddlers and hawkers coming in an endless stream, bookstores and teahouses opening one after another, and the official road has become flat and wide under the management and careful maintenance of Dongyang Mayor. Even the chief of Guizhou can walk openly on the official road by paying some insignificant tolls.

There were no bandits along the way, and the scenery on the road was enough to make Zhuge Jin marvel.

Zhuge Jin retracted his gaze and lowered the curtain of the donkey cart. He looked inside the cart. The furnishings inside the cart were not luxurious but very simple, so simple that they looked a little sloppy.

However, his family did not have much luggage, and the carriage was relatively spacious, more than enough to accommodate his father and two siblings.

"Wuwuwu, ah, father, father, I need to go to the toilet"

A cry attracted Zhuge Jin's attention. It was the little guy in Zhuge Gui's arms, his third brother Zhuge Jun.

"Jin, Jun needs to pee."

"I know."

Zhuge Jin hurriedly called for the driver to stop, and the donkey cart slowly stopped. Zhuge Gui originally wanted to help Zhuge Jun with the toilet himself. Although Zhuge Gui did not confess his health, several people had seen him practicing the Five Animal Exercises every day. Zhuge Qian and Zhuge Yun, who were secretly worried about Zhuge Gui's health, volunteered.

The driver and several guards also smiled and said, "Mr. Zhuge, the master of the family specifically told us to ensure the safety of you and your family, so don't worry."

"Thank you." Zhuge Gui smiled.

Only Zhuge Gui, Zhuge Jin, and the soundly sleeping Zhuge Liang were left in the car.

"Father." Zhuge Jin couldn't help asking, "Why are we rushing to Dongyang?" Zhuge Gui didn't answer Zhuge Jin's question directly. Instead, he touched his head and asked back.

"Jin, do you know Chen Yuanlong?"

"Of course I know." Zhuge Jin nodded. "Dongyang Dazhi is the work of Chen Yuanlong. I heard that he is famous for his writing and often invites great scholars to give lectures. Anyone can come and listen. Father wants me to come here to listen to the great scholars' lectures, right?"

Zhuge Gui shook his head slowly, lowered his eyes, and reached out to gently stroke Zhuge Liang's forehead.

"How do you think your second brother has been these days?"

"how?"

Zhuge Jin thought for a moment and said seriously, "Since General Zhang came, my second brother has been willing to go out for a walk. His temper has improved a lot. Apart from studying, he has also been asking me about the sequel of Liangzhou Popular Romance. Could it be that, father, you are doing this for my second brother?"

"Yes and no."

"One of them is a school opened in Dongyang"

"As for the second one"

Zhuge Gui spoke in a very low voice, so as not to wake Zhuge Liang up.

"Ryo, you have become much more stable since a certain day. I am worried."

"?" Zhuge Jin scratched his head in confusion, "Isn't this a good thing?"

Zhuge Gui shook his head gently and sighed, "Liang seems to have something on his mind and is unwilling to talk to you and me. A child is smart at an early age. Without the child's natural straightforwardness, it will be difficult for him to achieve great things in the future."

"Father, you don't have to worry. I believe in my younger brother more than he does. He will definitely achieve something in the future."

Zhuge Gui laughed at first and then his eyes dimmed, "Father is wrong. I am worried that Liang attaches too much importance to certain matters and overworks himself because of them."

"This"

Zhuge Jin scratched his head. He was still a teenager. He felt that there was no need to pay attention to these things at the moment. Fortunately, his thoughts turned very quickly and he immediately responded.

"Father, I can help you look after the light, okay?"

"Father, did you find someone to look after Liang?"

Zhuge Gui corrected Zhuge Jin's statement.

"I was invited by a distinguished person."

"Your Excellency?" Zhuge Jin asked tentatively, "Mr. Mi?"

"No." Looking at the two girls who had returned, he smiled and said, "Her surname is Gan, and she is a woman."

"Ah?" Zhuge Jin scratched his head and muttered, "Girl, has father found a stepmother for Liang and me?"

Zhuge Jin and his companions successfully entered the county town. Under the guidance of a special person, they met Dongyang Mayor Chen Deng with a smile on his face.

Chen Deng put his hands on his knees and looked at Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang.
"I finally got to meet the Dragon and Tiger brothers today."

"?"

Zhuge Jin was confused. Dragon and Tiger brothers, when did they start calling each other like that?

Before he could ask, a woman walked out gracefully. Her skin was as white as snow, and she was the most beautiful person Zhuge Jin had ever seen.

Her husband greeted everyone, then looked at Zhuge Liang, with a look in his eyes that Zhuge Jin could not understand.

she said with a smile
"Are you Zhuge Liang?"

　The prime minister has made his debut, right? Anyway, the plot of discussing Dong Zhuo will begin in the next few days.
