643 Zhuge Liang's decision
At this moment, Rao is Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang have such a good relationship, and they can't help but be a little sour, just like lemons.
has an uncle in Jingzhou and a brother in Jizhou, how come someone has paved the way for Zhuge Liang everywhere?
I feel that no matter what time it is, someone has prepared for Zhuge Liang in advance, as if they are waiting for Zhuge Liang to show his talents.
Thinking of his bumpy encounter along the way, Xu Shu couldn't help but sigh, the difference between people and people is bigger than the difference between people and pigs, and he can't bear it!
"Since Brother Ling has already come out, you should return north as soon as possible and go to join Brother Ling, Kong Ming, this kind of opportunity is not something that anyone can encounter, you have such a situation, you should seize it immediately, and you can't hesitate, otherwise, how can you let me wait for these people who have to find a way out by themselves?"
Seeing Xu Shu looking at him with a dejected expression, Zhuge Liang suddenly understood everything.
A feeling of embarrassment, guilt and coolness swept through Zhuge Liang's heart.
So at this moment, Zhuge Liang, a young man who was eighteen years old at the time, made the decision to leave Jingzhou and return north.
He knew that what he still needed to hesitate about in his eyes was an opportunity that he couldn't ask for.
So Zhuge Liang not only decided to go by himself, but also did not forget to give his friends a little benefit.
"I'll take you to see my brother together, we all participate in this ceremony, if you unfortunately lose, maybe my brother can find a way out for us, Yuan Zhi, what do you think?"
Xu Shu is four years old and now he is twenty-two years old, and he is already a decent adult, but he has not been able to become a leader, and now is the time for Xu Shu to seek a career.
It's a pity that he was born in a poor landlord family and has no background in the scholar family.
Although he was able to enter the academic hall and study with the children of the scholar clan by relying on a little chance and his own excellent talent, the gap in identity is not something that can be smoothed out by talent.
When he first came to Jingzhou to study in his early years, he was very despised because of his bad background, and no one wanted to associate with him.
Later, he studied hard, studied hard, and gradually showed his talent, and then he won the friendship of a few scholars who were not above the top and did not discriminate against their humble backgrounds.
Zhuge Liang is one of them.
There are selections and eliminations in the Talent Ceremony, which Xu Shu knows, so in case he loses, and Zhuge Liang is willing to get rid of Zhuge Jin to recommend him and find a way to match him, which is a very great kindness in Xu Shu's opinion.
It is equivalent to double insurance.
So Xu Shu couldn't help but be a little excited.
"Really?"
"Seriously."
Zhuge Liang nodded decisively.
"Great! Kong Ming, if that's the case, Xu Yuanzhi owes you a favor! ”
Xu Shu's face was full of excitement.
It was only at this time that Zhuge Liang understood more deeply his background and luck that no matter how many people asked for it, they couldn't ask for it.
And what happened afterwards confirmed this view.
After Shi Tao and Meng Jian learned the news, they were also very surprised, so they came to Zhuge Liang hand in hand, and said with a joking meaning that Zhuge Liang could not favor one over the other, everyone was a good friend or something.
Having said that, Zhuge Liang heard a bit of realism.
There are no simple jokes, all jokes have an element of truth, and some jokes are even more real than serious words.
One of these two people is from Yingchuan and the other is from Runan, both of whom are from the Shi clan.
However, in the era of war, the network of relations on which scholars relied to maintain their power was broken up, and the network of interests formed by in-laws, mutual filial piety, and business was destroyed.
The old one was destroyed by the war and Guo Peng, and the new relationship network formed by Guo Peng after the complete reshuffle has begun to take shape.
And when the new network is formed, they are not in it.
Now that the north is stable, it is already very difficult for them to return to their hometown's new relationship network, because no one will be willing to play with them, and they even have to re-follow Zhuge Xuan's old path and re-enter that circle.
Zhuge Liang has ready-made ones here, of course, they must make the most of them, otherwise relying on their own already greatly weakened family strength, it will not be so easy to enter the Guo Wei regime, which has become a ruling group.
So Shi Tao and Meng Jian seized this opportunity and asked Zhuge Liang for help jokingly, but they took this joke seriously in their hearts.
Zhuge Liang naturally sensed the sincerity of the two friends, and immediately sighed very much, feeling as if he had suddenly entered a terrible vanity fair.
In this Vanity Fair, is there still a sincere friendship?
Zhuge Liang naturally responded, so Meng Jian and Shi Tao left very happily.
As a result, I don't know who was not tight-lipped, and the news spread quickly.
As a result, some of the students in the academic hall who were born in the middle and middle school scholars and had lost their family networks, had no kinship within the Guo Wei regime, and were running around for the future.
They immediately forgot how they had been verbally violent against Zhuge Liang.
also forgot how they forced Zhuge Liang to be a man with his tail between his legs, and even almost ruined the Zhuge family.
In the officialdom, many friends have many paths, they are not just asking for one Zhuge Liang, but also other people with connections, in line with the principle of asking for one more opportunity, one more Zhuge Liang is naturally good.
With a shy face, he went to Zhuge Liang's residence to visit Zhuge Liang with some gifts, and then humbly accompanied the smiling face in the hope that Zhuge Liang could say a few good words to his brother, and then help them ask for a position under the Duke of Wei.
People like them are actually quite promising, because they are shameless and will drill camps.
Zhuge Liang was able to cope with it at first, but as more and more people came to visit him, he was so annoyed that he felt very disgusted with these people, so he couldn't help but speed up his preparations to leave Jingzhou.
He said goodbye to his teachers Pang Degong and Sima Shuijing, and said goodbye to his father-in-law, Huang Chengyan, a famous scholar in Jingzhou.
Pang Degong and Sima Hui really admired Zhuge Liang's talent, and the two of them knew the news of Zhuge Liang's decision to return north, and even had a trace of yearning.
But after all, their identity is different from that of a young man without an official position, and it would be too ugly for them to leave now.
Zhuge Liang is still young and can go, but they can't.
They are old, the character is fixed, they want to save face, and they can't leave, otherwise the character they have created for a lifetime will be ruined.
But it doesn't matter, as long as the many scholars in the academic hall, including Zhuge Liang, can get a good position, then their future will not be very difficult.
So Sima Hui and Pang Degong encouraged Zhuge Liang, saying that Zhuge Liang's talent in his belly was enough for him to achieve a certain status under the talented Guo Peng, and Zhuge Liang would definitely be appreciated by Guo Peng.
Zhuge Liang was noncommittal about this, and said goodbye to the two elders who were kind to him.
Then, Zhuge Liang came to Huang Chengyan's mansion to bid farewell to his father-in-law, Huang Chengyan.
Huang Chengyan admires Zhuge Liang's talent and feels that Zhuge Liang will definitely not be a simple character in the future.
So when many people were not optimistic about Zhuge Liang, they agreed to Zhuge Xuan's marriage and married their daughter to Zhuge Liang.
Now it seems that this luck is very good, not to mention talent.
But in the final analysis, Zhuge Liang is also a young man and has the common problems of young people, so in order to prevent him from making mistakes, Huang Chengyan felt that there were some things he had to tell Zhuge Liang in advance.
"This time, the talent ceremony presided over by Duke Wei selected Wei officials, not Han officials, do you know?"
