Loyalty and filial piety

Zhuge Qiao's answer to Tianwen not only made Zhang Wen speechless, but also made all Jiangdong civil and military embarrassed, and the gaze cast on Zhuge Qiao also had a little more awe.

Sun Quan looked at the person in front of him, but a thick smile kept appearing on his face; "Bo Song is good at learning, good knowledge is really worthy of being the son of Zhuge Ziyu, a few days ago your father wrote to me, saying: I miss my son very much, I hope that Gu can recruit his son in Shu Han for him; What do you think," Sun Quan stared at Zhuge Qiao and said slowly.

"Wu Hou, in the past, I was the son of my uncle by my father's order, and now my father is Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han; As for the eldest uncle in Jiangdong, if I have time, I will visit from now on," Zhuge Qiao replied, and his words also contained a firm look.

Sun Quan frowned and sighed helplessly, and gestured to the waiter beside him;

a few breaths of time; A waiter ran in small steps, "Lord, Nanjun Taishou Zhuge Jin asks to see."

"What is he here for, isn't he in charge of the defense of South County? Pass him in," Sun Quan said in surprise, but a subtle smile flashed.

Zhuge Qiao sighed, it seems that the time to come is still coming;

As the waiter retreated, a person walked in outside the hall, dressed in a dark blue official uniform, walked quickly towards Sun Quan with a low face, and when he was almost ten steps away from Sun Quan, he immediately knelt down and said, "Chennan County Taishou Zhuge Jin greets the Lord."

"Ziyu is not in Jiangling City, why did he suddenly come to Wuchang today" Sun Quan asked puzzled;

"Return to the Lord; The lord still remembers that in the past, I passed my second son to my brother Zhuge Liang, and now his mother misses it very much, so I hereby ask the lord for his life, and the lord communicates with Shu Han to let the brother return my second son and reunite my family" Zhuge Jin kowtowed, but there was a trace of unbearability in his eyebrows.

"Lord, the minister also thinks that if Ziyu's family can be reunited, wouldn't it be a good thing at first sight," Zhang Zhao echoed, and stared at Zhuge Qiao a few times without comment.

In the blink of an eye, the previous decadence of the Jiangdong courtiers was swept away, leaving behind a look of anticipation of good things, looking forward to how the two people in front of him would end in the future.

Ma Tan stared at Sun Quan who was sitting on the top seat, his eyes were full of endless anger, and he glanced at Zhuge Jin who was kneeling on the ground with disdain, and the corners of his mouth touched slightly as if he was saying, 'Ruthless enough',

"Ziyu, Lone really can't make decisions for you in this matter, but you can ask the person next to you, if he agrees, Lone will immediately communicate with Shu Han about this matter" Sun Quan said with a smile, but the smile on his face was even stronger;

As soon as the words fell, Zhuge Jin turned his head and looked at the person beside him, and the person next to him also looked at him; The moment their eyes met, the face of the person next to him was so familiar, "You are Qiao'er" Zhuge Jin asked softly when he was surprised.

"Exactly, uncle!" Zhuge Qiao answered in a deep voice;

but stunned Zhuge Jin, not for anything else but for his uncle, which is enough to chill ten warm hearts;

"It's good to come back, I'll take you home tomorrow to see your mother" Zhuge Jin held back the loss in his heart and squeezed out these words from his mouth with difficulty.

"You don't need to be sent by your uncle, your nephew will go home, and if you have the opportunity, you will definitely visit your uncle in person" Zhuge Qiao replied, without any expression on his face, he knew very well that it would not be a coincidence that he was standing in the same hall with Zhuge Jin today.

Zhuge Jin faced the three words of the eldest uncle, although his expression was hated and surprised, but there was no so-called sadness in his eyes;

"What uncle, you still called me dad a few years ago," Zhuge Jin retorted;

"Lord, in my opinion, this Zhuge Qiao must be an unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, and unrighteous person, and he doesn't even call his biological father, even if this person is knowledgeable, what good does it do" Sun Shao stood up with an angry face.

As soon as the words landed, followed by the civil and military forces in the hall who cast a contemptuous look at Zhuge Qiao, after all, in the Han Dynasty, Confucianism was the only respect, and people regarded filial piety as very important; The king must govern the country with filial piety, and the minister must be filial piety to be an official, Sun Shao's words undoubtedly pushed Zhuge Qiao to the crowd.

"The Book of Songs" has a cloud of 'righteousness, self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world', and I am also doing filial piety in the "Qi family", and I have not forgotten the responsibility of 'governing the country and leveling the world'; I am an official in front of His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and a son in the family of my father Zhuge Liang, so why is it disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unjust" Zhuge Qiao said frankly;

"Who is your biological father?" Sun Shao continued;

"Uncle Nai, too;" Zhuge Qiao said to Sun Shao, but there was an endless chill in his eyes;

"Then why didn't your father invite you home, but you didn't obey," Sun Shao ignored Zhuge Qiao's gaze and continued to ask;

"I'm Captain Yao of Shu Han, do you know what that means? I was granted by His Majesty the Emperor of Han to come to Wuchang to discuss the matter of Jingzhou with Wu Hou, why did you stop me; Zhuge Qiao suddenly took a step forward and shouted at Sun Shao;

Sun Shao didn't expect Zhuge Qiao to dare to shout at himself in front of Sun Quan, and when he knew that Zhuge Qiao had been named Captain Yao, he was shocked at the moment, and was about to retort、、、

"Stand down! Captain Zhuge don't you think it's a bit impossible to let Gu give up the whole of Jingzhou? Sun Quan suppressed the anger in his heart and went back to the point;

Zhuge Qiao stared at Ma Tan, and Ma Jian also stared at Zhuge ; "Wu Hou, my lord said that if you don't want to give up Jingzhou, it's okay, but you have to collect Jingzhou's taxes for three years" Zhuge Qiao stared at Sun Quan Zhengse;

Originally, I only wanted to charge you 100,000 stone grain and grass and 100,000 taels of silver, but I think it's too cheap for you, and the tax for three years should be what you should bear.

"Three years of taxes! You can think of it, do you really think that my Jiangdong soldiers will be afraid that your Han army will not succeed" Before Sun Quan could speak, Lu Fan immediately stood up; After all, the tax revenue of the entire Jingzhou in three years will not be less than one million at least.

"See you on the battlefield then," Zhuge Qiao replied softly;

"Lord, the minister thinks that if he can form an ally with Shu Han to fight against Cao Wei, Jingzhou's three-year tax revenue should be borne by my Dongwu" Yu said;

"Lord, three years of taxation is too huge, according to the will of the minister, one year of taxation is enough" Zhang Zhao immediately said;

"Soldiers, it's child's play! Either return Jingzhou, or the entire Jingzhou for three years' taxes, everything is up to Wu Hou's decision," Zhuge Qiao continued to remind, without the slightest retreat in his words;

"Lord, the minister thinks that forming an alliance with Shu Han is the most important, after all, only if we are each other's lips and teeth, can we compete with Cao Wei at the moment" Gu Yong also said.

Yu Tuo and Gu Yong are both one of the four major families in Jiangdong, and the four major families are deeply rooted in Jiangdong, even Sun Quan does not dare to dispose of them at will, seeing them stand up, a smug smile suddenly flashed on Ma Yan's face.
