"Boy Zhuge Liang, I can't afford to be a friend of the public..."

"Oh? Zhuge ? Liu Mo pondered for a moment, took him all the way towards Menzixue, and asked with a smile: "There doesn't seem to be a minister surnamed Zhuge in the court?" How could you be sent by the Son of Heaven? ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "Liang doesn't know, Your Majesty's great grace ordered me to come to Menzi to study..."

"Hahaha, it seems that you are also a child of a poor family..."

"Hui Gong, I was born in the Langya Zhuge clan, and my ancestors have been officials for several generations... Uncle is Huaiyang Ling..."Zhuge Liang said with some embarrassment, he was worried that the other party would think that he was showing off his family background, in fact, he just didn't want to deceive the minister opposite, since entering Luoyang, this person is the most enthusiastic and kind to him, and he can feel that sense of oppression in the face of the Son of Heaven.

And ministers like Zhao Wen and Zhang He don't take him seriously, as for those students who study too much... didn't mention it, he said earnestly: "Liang is not showing off, but he doesn't want to hide from the elders..."

Liu Mo shook his head and said: "No hindrance, no hindrance, you can enter the academy at such a young age, obviously a smart person, it seems that it is the Taixue people who embarrass you, no hindrance, I used to be a newcomer to Taixue, and the students of Taixue looked down on me, so I came to Menzi to study... I'm different from you...", Zhuge Liang heard a little bitterness in the other party's words, and didn't ask more.

Liu Mo continued: "I was originally from Donghao, the king of Donghao, served the Han Dynasty and became a minister of the Han Dynasty, do you know Donghao? We are in the north of Samhan, that is, in the north of Youzhou, we have a lot of fish and shrimp there, and there is a kind of fish with dragon whiskers, which can be described as miraculous! Speaking of Donghao, Liu Mo's eyes lit up, he was a little excited, and he never stopped.

"Oh? Is there such a fish in the world? I don't know how long the dragon's whiskers are? Zhuge Liang asked curiously.

Liu Mo burst into tears, for many years, no one had ever asked him this, even if it was just a young child, so he danced and gestured, and described it, the two talked very harmoniously, the entourage behind Zhuge Liang changed his face greatly, and he narrowed the distance, and soon, he came to the door of Menzixue, and when he saw Liu Mo coming, the soldiers guarding the door had a headache.

Liu Mo didn't come to Menzixue once or twice, he came again and again, which made Menzixue uneasy, Zheng Xuan personally ordered them not to allow Liu Mo to enter, but no matter how they prevented it, they couldn't persuade this person, not to mention, this person was not white, or a subordinate of Taiwei Zhang Wen, Zhang Wen was their top official, what else did they dare to do?

Seeing him come again, the two soldiers frowned, and they really didn't know what to say.

Liu Mo frowned, and said: "According to the order of the Son of Heaven, I specially sent students to come to Menzi to study, and there is a letter to be handed over to Zheng Gong...", hearing his words, the soldier did not dare to block it anymore, with the order of the Son of Heaven, how dare they stop it? As for whether Liu Mo is deceiving them, heh, a Donghao person, dare to falsely preach the holy decree??

Liu Mo entered the Menzi School as he wished, he took Zhuge Liang and walked on this winding path, the students who came and went, all avoided things, and Zhuge Liang was frightened, who is this, why are others so afraid of him, finally, Liu Mo took him to the study where Zheng Xuan was, and immediately had a servant to tell him, but Zheng Xuan only saw Zhuge Liang and did not want to see Liu Mo.

Zhuge Liang bowed to Liu Mo and said goodbye.

Liu Mo smiled and whispered in his ear: "If someone bullies you, go find someone, call him Segriya, he is a Kushan person, you will say that you have an old relationship with me, and he will naturally protect you...", after speaking, he smiled and left.

He came here to see his friend Se Yujia, and now that the purpose has been achieved, he doesn't have to stay here, Zhuge Liang then walked into the study, Zheng Xuan was reading a book, saw him come in, looked him up and down, and saw that he was very beautiful, then nodded, squinted his eyes, and asked, "Is the Son of Heaven asking you to come?" ”

Zhuge Liang took out the letter of the Son of Heaven from his body and handed it to Zheng Xuan.

Zheng Xuan took it with both hands, read it carefully, then sat down again, and didn't say anything, and ordered the slave to take him to find the sacrificial wine, and to arrange Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang thanked him again and again, and then left here.

Zhuge Liang visited him one by one, but these people in front of him were no different from Taixue students, and when facing him, they were also extremely cold, and the slave sent him to his residence, so he ignored him, and left directly.

When they left completely, Zhuge Liang was a little lonely, but he was not annoyed, just looking forward to being able to go to school with the rest of the people tomorrow, and at night, his classmate came, this person was a young scholar who was a young man of the crown year, he had already heard that a classmate had come, and settled in with him, and he was happy, so he hurriedly walked in from outside.

Taixue, a single-person mansion, Menzixue is a double or even six-person mansion.

The man held a pot of wine, walked in happily, walked into the mansion, looked at it, only to see a young child looking at him suspiciously, there was no one else around, he frowned, and said with some doubts: "Now that you come to this school, can you still take a child?" He looked at Zhuge Liang and asked with some curiosity, "Where is your father?" ”

Zhuge Liang's face was stunned, and he said slowly: "It's been ten years since my father's death..."

The man was startled, the wine jug in his hand was almost thrown out, he was terrified, looked around in fear, thought for a moment, reacted again, and asked, "Who are you here with?" ”

Zhuge Liang then understood why this person asked his father, he thought he was coming with him, he got up, walked in front of the man, bowed his hand and said: "Learn Zhuge Liang, meet you!" ”

Hearing his words, the man's eyes widened, this guy can enter the door at such a young age? After a while, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Sima Lang... Meet... Jun...", he looked at the pot of wine in his hand, and put it on the case helplessly, so he didn't say anything, picked up the book, and went back to his study, seeing him leaving, Zhuge Liang continued to read his book.

As for the next day, Zhuge Liang has also been following the rest of the people to enroll in school, most of the sacrificial wine here are protégés and old friends recruited by Zheng Xuan, and the ability to govern the scriptures is not trivial, and they will also teach them about agriculture, laws and the like, however, there are not many teachings, mainly to govern the scriptures, Zhuge Liang listened to it fascinated, their level, compared to the sacrificial wine of the official school, I don't know how many times higher.

However, he still didn't find any students who were willing to pay attention to him, these people were very cold to him, Zhuge Liang also had his own arrogance in his heart, and he didn't want to look for others, so he was immersed in his studies every day, among them, it was the Guishan man who came to him, it seems that Liu Mo told him and asked him to take care of himself, this person is very different from Liu Mo.

He didn't say much, just asked Zhuge Liang if he could help, and left.

After he left, Sima Lang on the side asked with some curiosity, "Do you recognize him?" ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "When I came here before, it was the Taiwei Commander Shi Liu Gong who brought me here. ”

"Tohao-kun?" Sima Lang asked, smiled, and said, "In the future, you should contact them less... They... The reputation in this sect is not good..."

Zhuge Liang didn't answer, and Sima Lang said again: "Do you know why everyone is so cold to you? ”

Zhuge Liang put down the book in his hand, looked at him, and said, "Just because of my age." ”

"Definitely." Sima Lang shook his head and said: "The people who learn from Menzi are not too scholars, you are so talented, you can be on the same list with us at a young age, we will never be angry, but you do not pass the assessment, but through the recommendation of nobles, you come to Menzi to learn, which makes everyone dislike, not to mention, I heard that you are still from a family?" ”

Zhuge Liang couldn't say it clearly, and asked suspiciously: "I heard that Jun is also a member of the family?" ”

"Hahaha~~" Sima Lang laughed and said, "I am Hanoi Sima Shi..."

"Then why is it in Menzixue?"

"Thou shalt not speak, thou shalt not speak."

"The same goes for Ryo."

Zhuge Liang replied, Sima Lang looked at him, smiled, and said: "I don't mean it, you are the same age as my second brother, maybe a few years older, looking at you, it's like seeing my younger brother, he is like you, young and intelligent, and arrogant... Anyway, I won't persuade much..."

After that, Sima Lang never spoke to him again, Zhuge Liang studied all day long, if he had doubts, he asked about the sacrificial wine, he was extremely studious, and his studies were not left behind too much by these crowned people, the sacrificial wine was different from the students, he was very fond of him, his questions, the sacrificial wine would even teach him personally, which caused the rest of the students to be unhappy with him.

There are many reasons why the students are angry with him, his age, his family background, being recommended, and even his excellence, all make the rest of the students feel angry, after a few months, Zhuge Liang used the fastest time, faded away from the immaturity of his body, grew up quickly, did not like words, good at reading, many books in Menzi Xue, were often borrowed by him, and read them overnight.

It's just that Zheng Xuan still ignores him, and he doesn't know what the Son of Heaven said in his letter.

"Knock, knock, knock"

A gentle knock on the door came in, Sima Lang covered his forehead helplessly, Zhuge Liang smiled, stepped forward and opened the door, it was really Liu Mo outside the door, Liu Mo smiled, and walked in, Sima Lang pretended to be asleep, did not pay attention to him, Liu Mo walked in, and talked to Zhuge Liang, chatted for a while, Sima Lang couldn't bear it, and coughed a few times.

Liu Mo got up and smiled awkwardly, and Zhuge Liang didn't speak, so he walked out with him.

In these days, Liu Mo often came to him, and I don't know how he passed through the door, he never explained this, usually looking for Zhuge Liang to talk about Donghao, talk about today's major events, and his studies, Zhuge Liang found that Liu Mo has great talent, he has spent a lot of time in Taixue and Menzixue, in terms of knowledge, Zhuge Liang has never seen anything more powerful than him.

No matter what he talked about, Liu Mo could answer, even for several hours, and he never stopped.

"What did you learn today?"

"On politics, sacrificing wine asks us to find out ten arguments against the march into Funan..."

"Alas, the chaos in this court has still spread here, don't you know, in today's temple, the ministers of the two sides quarrel because of the matter of Funan Zhenla, and often do it, even I have been implicated, I am a little scribe, Zhang Gong took me to the temple all day long, and debated with the ministers.. So you, are you done? ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "No." ”

"Hey, Cao Cao, these people, the idea is good, it's just too young, think about it..." he wanted to speak, but he quietly looked around, and saw that there was no one around, so he continued: "Why is the son of today not as popular as the Son of Heaven?" It's not these new ministers of the imperial faction, they just want to make meritorious contributions themselves, they just want to expand their territory, make the Son of Heaven happy, and get meritorious deeds..."

"But what? How good will this be for the people? The tax burden has never been lowered at all... There has never been any love for the people, just the accumulation of meritorious deeds, this world is not among the merits of those princes and generals, it lies in the people, only the people's lives are good, the Son of Heaven is the Ming King, blindly conquering, but there is no love for the people, these ministers..."Liu Mo shook his head and said.

Zhuge Liang listened quietly, without the slightest impatience, he has been able to rise so rapidly in his studies these days, and Liu Mo has nothing to do with it, under the moonlight, the two walked together, Zhuge Liang suddenly asked: "Liu Gong, I have something..."

"Oh? What's wrong? Who has insulted you? Don't be afraid, I have a clan under General Gongsun..."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Liang and Liu Gongsu have never met, I don't know why Gong loves him so much?" ”

Liu Mo was stunned for a moment, was silent for a moment, and asked, "But it bothered you..."

"No, just curious..."

Liu Mo grinned and said, "In the world, you are the only one who is willing to listen to me... When I was the same size as you, I could only talk to myself, and I didn't know how many years I had to suffer...", he said, his voice gradually lowered, he did not tell Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang looked very much like his younger brother, and his younger brother died tragically at the hands of the Goguryeo people.

He often sees his family at night, and in his dreams, his family members don't blink to death, looking straight at him... He vividly remembered the wild laughter of the Goguryeo people and the wailing of his younger brother.

Zhuge Liang looked at the person in front of him, Liu Mo was cowardly by nature, he never dared to be an enemy of anyone, when Zhuge Liang was bullied for the first time, Liu Mo went to find that person, and it had no effect, the student beat Liu Mo hard, Liu Mo didn't dare to resist, and he didn't speak, he just carried the injury and went to Zhang Wen, and the angry Taiwei almost slaughtered Menzixue....

Zheng Xuan expelled the student from the school in order to appease the captain, and since then, Zhuge Liang has never been violently bullied.

This person has a lot of words, whether others listen or not, he always has countless words to tell others, and there is a pain in his heart, Zhuge Liang doesn't know why he is like this, he just knows that every time he talks about his childhood or family, Liu Mo's words are full of sadness and self-blame.

Zhuge Liang didn't think he was very annoying, since the death of his father, his uncle raised him, however, his uncle was busy with political affairs all day, he was alone since he was a child, the eldest brother and younger brother, and he couldn't communicate with him in general, because, until now, they haven't even finished learning the Analects....

Liu Mo was by his side, giving him a father-like feeling, Liu Mo would come to accompany him, and he would tell him everything in his heart, even if he was timid, he would stand up to protect him....

"Liu Gong..."

"Huh?"

"When will you take me to see the fish of Tokai... The kind with dragon whiskers? ”
