Chapter 162: Sima Hui
Xiangyang Academy was set up by Liu Biao for the world's celebrities, and Sima Wei, a famous scholar in Yingchuan, lived in Xiangyang and lectured and taught apprentices here.
Sima Hui, the word Decao, Yingchuan Yangzhai (now Yuzhou, Henan) people. He is a high-minded person, has a wide range of knowledge, has the ability to know people and discuss the world, and identifies talents, and is respected by the world.
Wars in Yingchuan were frequent. In order to avoid the disaster of war, Sima Hui traveled to Xiangyang City under the rule of Liu Biao in Jingzhou. He is known as "Mr. Water Mirror". The manor where he lived in the south of Xiangyang City was also known as "Shuijingzhuang".
Liu Biao asked him to come out many times, but he refused, but only promised to teach him an apprenticeship in the academy.
In history, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were recommended to Liu Bei.
On this day, Sima Wei was studying a catalogue in the study, looking at his frowning appearance, I was afraid that he was stumped by the drawings on the picture for a long time!
"Hey, I'm really not good at this, do I have to ask for someone?" Sima Wei's face was entangled, and he sighed......
"Forget it, Brother Chengyan is good at learning, let's visit him tomorrow......" After pondering for a long time, Sima Wei finally put down the catalogue in his hand with a dead heart.
"Knock knock......" At this time, someone knocked on the door outside the room, "Sir, Mr. Huang has come to visit, which has led to reception in the front room." ”
"Oh? Hahaha...... Speaking of Chengyan, Chengyan arrived, what a coincidence! Sima was slightly happy, picked up the catalogue and ran to the front hall in high spirits.
When he came to the front hall, he saw a middle-aged man leading three teenagers and children, Sima was slightly stunned, but he didn't think much about it, and smiled directly at the middle-aged man: "Brother Chengyan is really anxious, I just wanted to visit tomorrow, but I didn't think that Brother Chengyan would send it to the door by himself!" ”
"Oh, Brother Decao also has something to look for me, that's a coincidence......" The middle-aged man returned the salute, his face was surprised, and then said to a girl behind him, "Ah Chou, come and see Uncle Sima." ”
The girl is about ten years old, with big eyes and a small face, and her appearance is very cute, but she is born with rabbit lips, which makes people sigh and cry out that God is unfair.
The girl was very cowardly, and had been hiding behind a young man, and when she heard the man's call, she lowered her head and hurriedly saluted Sima Wei, and then ran back behind the young man and hid.
This girl's milk name is A Chou, her name is Huang Yueying, and the middle-aged man is her father Huang Chengyan, these two are also very famous in history, because this girl grew up to become Zhuge Liang's wife, and this Huang Chengyan is Zhuge Liang's father-in-law.
Huang Chengyan saw that his daughter was rude, and said to Sima Wei helplessly: "Don't blame Brother Decao." ”
"Where, Brother Chengyan is polite, Ah Chou has made great progress." Sima Wei has a deep personal relationship with Huang Chengyan, and knows that his daughter is inferior because of her rabbit lips and does not want to see anyone. When I saw his daughter for the first time, don't say a salute, it's good not to cry. So in order to make him strong, Huang Chengyan often took his daughter around. Nowadays, it is a great improvement to be able to give gifts to people.
It's just that what surprises Sima Wei now is that Huang Yueying, who usually doesn't dare to see people, has been hiding behind a strange boy who is thirteen or fourteen years old, which has to make him look at the boy with admiration.
Huang Chengyan saw that Sima Wei was paying attention to the young man, so he beckoned him and another ten-year-old boy and said, "Liang'er, Jun'er, come and see Mr. Sima." ”
The two young men came to Sima Wei generously and saluted deeply: "The late Zhuge Liang (Zhuge Jun) visited Mr. Sima. ”
"No courtesy." Sima stroked his head slightly, looked at Huang Chengyan, and seemed to ask.
Seeing this, Huang Chengyan explained: "Yuzhang is too shou, Zhuge Xuan's son and nephew. ”
Sima Wei's eyes froze, his expression was abrupt, and then he said to Huang Chengyan with a little caution: "Brother Chengyan, let's sit down first and then talk." ”
Huang Chengyan answered, and the two sat down one after another, and several children knelt behind Huang Chengyan.
After taking a seat, Huang Chengyan spoke first: "When Zhuge Xuan went to Yuzhang, he entrusted these two children to me to raise. Now that Jiangdong has been defeated, my Huang family, Cai family, Kuai family, and Zhuge family are all on the cusp, I am worried that I will not be able to protect these two sons, and I will be entrusted by my friends, so I want to ask Brother Decao to take care of one or two. ”
Huang Chengyan's father-in-law is Nanjun Dashi Cai Wei, and Cai Yan is Cai Mao's father. Cai, Kuai, Huang, Zhang and other major Jingzhou families all have the friendship of marriage, and they are entangled with each other openly and secretly, and support each other, so that they can control the power of Jingzhou and make Liu Biao helpless.
But now that Cai Mao, Kuai Yue, and Zhuge Xuan were defeated by Yuan Yao in Jiangdong, and they also had the Huang family Jiangxia worried about losing their land, which was a good opportunity for other families who were suppressed by several families to turn over, and even a good time for Liu Biao to take back power. If these great families can't be protected, the alternation of rights will definitely be accompanied by bloody storms, and Huang Chengyan himself will be difficult to protect at that time, not to mention these two children.
Besides, Zhuge Xuan still has the crime of surrender in Jiangdong, although there is no news of defection to the Yuan family, but if something is unlucky, these two children will be easily liquidated, so if Huang Chengyan doesn't want to lose his trust, he must plan early.
And Sima Wei is celibate, and his reputation is heavy, and in this era of knowledge monopoly, people who are willing to engage in education work are not only deeply admired, but also have broad interpersonal relationships, and there should be no problem in protecting the two children who have nothing to do, so Huang Chengyan asked for this.
Sima Wei thought about it for a while and knew what it meant, so he said seriously: "I heard that Zhuge Fujun surrendered to prevent Zhenrong from slaughtering the city, this is a benevolent act of sacrificing himself for others, and it is a blessing for my generation to be able to take care of his family, although Brother Chengyan is handed over to me." ”
Huang Chengyan was greatly relieved to see Sima Wei respond without hesitation, and then let go of his worries and pulled Zhuge Liang and said: "Actually, another important reason why I think of Brother Decao is that although Liang'er is young, her intelligence is the only one I have seen in my life, and I have the ability to never forget, and everything I am good at is miscellaneous learning, so I am afraid that I will miss the future of my children." Thinking about it, in today's world, I am afraid that only Brother Decao will teach him, so he will not waste this sub-qualification. ”
"Oh?" Sima Wei was surprised to see Huang Chengyan respect Zhuge Liang so much.
Seeing this, Zhuge Liang bowed unhurriedly and said: "Uncle praises falsely, nephew is ashamed." ”
"Huh!" Seeing Zhuge Liang's youthful appearance, Sima Wei stroked his beard and was happy.
In fact, Sima Wei also has a good impression of Zhuge Liang, the reason is that Huang Yueying, who has low self-esteem, can hide behind him without fear.
The child is innocent, and he is also very sensitive to the sincerity of others, so Huang Yueying is reluctant to see people because she was born with rabbit lips. Now that he can be unsuspecting of Zhuge Liang, it proves that the other party has never shown a trace of disgust for her appearance, which is enough to prove that his character is extraordinary.
"Since Brother Chengyan said so, I will find an auspicious day and accept him as a disciple!" Sima Wei didn't pretend anymore, and directly agreed to Huang Chengyan's invitation to accept apprentices.
"Haha, so I have accepted the love of Brother Decao!" Huang Chengyan's heart has been decided, and Lao Huai is relieved.
Zhuge Liang solemnly came to the hall at this time, bowed to Huang Chengyan and Sima Wei, and said: "Uncle and Mr. Liang'er will never forget the grace of reinvention in this life." ”
