Chapter 128: Zhuge Jin and Xu Sheng
Jiang Hong remembered that Moling seemed to be the Nanjing of later generations, Sun Quan renamed it Jianye, and Zhu Yuanzhang called it Yingtian. As the ancient capital of I don't know how many dynasties, although these dynasties do not seem to have a long lifespan, it can also be seen that the geographical advantages of Moling can also be seen.
Although Jiang Hong is still just a small Guangling Taishou, Jiang Hong does not care at all, and plans to shift his governance, or political focus, to Moling.
Speaking of which, at this time, it was Li Wei and Guo Yan who were in charge of the court, as long as they sent someone to give some gifts and say some good things, it seemed that it was easy to win an official position.
Although Jiang Hong can now lead the history of Yangzhou Thorn, and even say that he is Yangzhou Mu, but what is officially recognized must be more formal after all.
Whom will they send? Jiang Hong thought for a while, and simply sent Zhuge Jin out, this kid has been studying with Zhang Hong for so long, and it is time to come out to see the world. By the way, Xu Hao's nephew can also go with him, it seems that Lu Dai likes this little guy very much.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hong suddenly felt that the name of this young general was very familiar, and hurriedly got out of bed to rummage through the latest battle report sent by Lu Dai. In the end, Jiang Hong found two words in the corner of the bamboo slip, Xu Sheng.
I'll take it, how did this Xu Sheng become Xu Hao's nephew? Jiang Hong looked confused, and it wasn't until he called Xu Hao from the army that Jiang Hong understood.
When he was in Ju County, Xu Hao saw that the orphans and widows left behind by his eldest brother were quite pitiful, so he begged Jiang Hong to bring them back together. Jiang Hong didn't care about it at that time, so he agreed casually.
After a few years, this Xu Sheng gradually grew to 16 years old, his martial arts were quite good, and he wanted to go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions, but his age was not enough for Jiang Hong's standard for recruitment.
In the end, Xu Sheng could only find his uncle and ask him to stuff himself into the army. Looking at Xu Hao's cramped face, Jiang Hong scolded him with a smile and didn't ask any more.
It should be good to send these two people to Chang'an for a tour. At the beginning, he broke up Chen Zhi and Zhuge Jin, two good friends, and today he will compensate him for a more pink Xu Sheng, and Zhuge Jin will not suffer a loss.
After making up his mind, Jiang Hong asked someone to write a letter, why not write it himself? Because Jiang Hong's words are still too ugly, and he hasn't practiced for a long time, it is even more ugly and outrageous, in front of the juniors, it is better to save some face.
"Master." I haven't seen him for a few years, and Zhuge Jin has grown from a teenager to a handsome son.
Jiang Hong asked Zhuge Jin to study with Zhang Hong, Zhuge Jin was gentle, and he was a good material, so Zhang Hong simply accepted Zhuge Jin as an apprentice and tried his best to teach Zhuge Jin.
"Jin'er, do you know why the teacher called you over today?" Zhang Hong asked very kindly.
"I don't know, please let the master make it clear." Zhuge Jin replied respectfully.
"Taishou intends to let you go to Chang'an." Zhang Hong said.
"Really?" Zhuge Jin's head was raised suddenly, but the excitement in his eyes couldn't be concealed.
It's no wonder that Zhuge Jin was too excited, it was indeed Jiang Hong who suppressed Zhuge Jin a little tightly, and he held it in his hand for four years before letting it out, and if it was someone else, he would be more or less resentful in his heart.
But fortunately, Jiang Hong found a good teacher for Zhuge Jin, and the first thing Zhang Hong taught Zhuge Jin was to cultivate oneself and guard against arrogance and rashness. Zhuge Jin's performance in the past few years has also made Zhang Hong very satisfied, but today Zhuge Jin has a good gaffe, and Zhang Hong doesn't blame him.
"Take it and see it for yourself." Zhang Hong smiled and handed Jiang Hong's letter to Zhuge Jin.
Although Zhuge Jin was excited, he still waited very respectfully for Zhang Hong to hand it to him, and then took it and read it carefully, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"Alright, let's go down, I'm about to laugh on my face." Zhang Hong saw Zhuge Jin smiling more than once, and quipped, "Also, Chang'an is not a good place, so you have to pay more attention to it." ”
"No, follow the teachings of the master." Zhuge Jin stood up, thanked Zhang Hong, and then retreated.
It wasn't until he walked to a place where Zhang Hong couldn't see that Zhuge Jin waved his fist vigorously and vented the excitement in his heart. This is his first errand, but he has to complete it well to leave a good impression on Jiang Hong.
However, Jiang Hong's letter also specifically pointed out that there would be a young man who would go to Chang'an with him, which made Zhuge Jin full of joy.
Young talent, it must be the son of a family who came out to practice, Zhuge Jin has begun to yearn for the picture of the two talking happily and becoming confidants, um~~, it's really beautiful.
As soon as the two met, Rao is Zhuge Jin had followed Zhang Hong's self-cultivation for many years, and his face collapsed suddenly, which was too different from what he imagined!!
This man knew at a glance that he had never read a book, and that he was very arrogant, and that his demeanor was debauched, and that there was no amount of rudeness to speak of. Zhuge Jin had already begun to wonder if this was a trial arranged by Zhang Hong for himself?
"Hey, that's what you're doing, Zhuge . Eh, what's going on with Zhuge ? As soon as Xu Sheng spoke, Zhuge Jin had the urge to turn around and leave, the two of us are going to Chang'an together, you don't even remember the names of the people who are traveling with you? ?
"Under Zhuge Jin, the word Ziyu." Zhuge Jin endured the discomfort in his heart and said.
"My name is Xu Sheng, I don't have a word yet, it seems that you are a few years older than me, just call me Xiaonu, this is my nickname." As he spoke, a slap almost knocked Zhuge Jin to the ground.
Zhuge Jin staggered and stopped, and said with a smile:
"Along the way, I hope that Xiaonu will give me a lot of advice."
"Of course, looking at your small body, it's too weak to help the wind." After speaking, he slapped Zhuge Jin's shoulder a few more times.
Zhuge Jin endured the pain on his shoulder, and kept silently reciting in his heart: cold for thousands of years, everything is still quiet, the mind is quiet, look at me alone, the heart and mind are one, the qi should follow each other, if there is more than one phase, all changes are not shocked, no ignorance, no desire, no desire, no abandonment, no self.
Hold on, hold on, it's just a trial, hold on, you have to endure this trial, just endure it.
"Xiaonu smiled, Jin is a scholar, how can you compare to Xiaonu?" The smile on Zhuge Jin's face was more ugly than crying.
"No, the superintendent told me that a gentleman has six arts, etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics, looking at you like this, I'm afraid you stay in the house all day long, right?" After speaking, the small fist punched Zhuge Jin in the chest.
"Ahem." This sudden punch almost didn't interrupt Zhuge Jin, and he bowed his waist for a while before he recovered.
"By the way, Ziyu, do you know how to ride a horse?" Xu Sheng looked at Zhuge Jin, who kept stroking his chest, and suddenly asked.
Hearing Xu Sheng's question, Zhuge Jin's face changed wildly, and he shook his head like a rattle, for fear that he would be slowed down, and he would be dragged to the horse by Xu Sheng without paying attention.
"It just so happens that I won't, let's learn together. It is said that the horses this time, but the Xiliang horses specially transferred by General Xu Rong from the army, you picked them up~~" Xu Sheng nodded slowly, and a lewd smile appeared on his face.
Master, help!! Zhuge Jin sounded a helpless cry in his heart, I will never go out again...
