When Sun Shao saw Zhuge Liang's home, he was very surprised. In Chengdu these days, although he knows that Liu Bei is not obedient to Zhuge Liang like the legend, but Zhuge Liang is a military general after all, and he is in charge of the affairs of General Zuo's Mansion, how can he live so simply? The small courtyard in front of me is much colder than the courtyard in Wu County.

"The general lives here?" Sun Shao pointed to the courtyard gate, his face a little strange.

Zhuge Liang smiled calmly, and raised his hand to signal: "I'm really ashamed, the Liang family is surrounded by walls, and it can't be compared with the school captain, and I ask the school captain to bear with me one or two." ”

Sun Shao smiled bitterly and followed Zhuge Liang into the door. It is of course too exaggerated to say that the four walls of the house are empty, but it is not too much to say that it is simple, although the area of the courtyard is not small, but it is empty, except for an old and dizzy old servant who is slowly cleaning the fallen leaves in the courtyard, there are no other servants in sight. When Sun Shao passed by the old servant, the old servant didn't react at all, and swept by himself, as if he didn't see Sun Shao at all, let alone expect him to catch up and bring tea and water.

When he sat down in the hall, a young man hurried over, and when he saw Sun Shao, he bowed deeply and said apologetically: "I don't know if there is a guest coming, there is a loss of welcome, and the capital crime is a capital crime." ”

"This is my third brother Zhuge Jun, the cursive character is flat." Zhuge Liang smiled very casually.

Sun Shao hurriedly saluted, but Zhuge didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly returned the salute. Although Sun Shao is young, Zhuge knows that Zhuge Liang usually never brings people home, Sun Shao is the only one, and he can't be lazy.

"Brother, you sit with Captain Sun, I'll go and prepare?" Zhuge Jun looked at Zhuge Liang and asked him with his eyes if he wanted to prepare lunch, if he wanted to keep guests, the wine and food at home were not of high grade, and he had to rush to the city to buy them.

Zhuge Liang smiled: "You don't have to do much, what hasn't Captain Sun seen?" You go and tell your sister-in-law to pick some fresh vegetables in the back garden, and you go to the city to drink two buckets of wine and cut some beef. He turned his face and smiled at Sun Shao again: "Captain Sun, there is really nothing good to entertain at home, so I can only mean it." ”

Sun Shao has been looking at Zhuge Liang, he feels that Zhuge Liang seems to be a little too much, with his money, can the family only live such a frugal life? If a self-disciplined person is either a hypocrite, or he is really willing to be bland, but if Zhuge Liang is really willing to be bland, why should he follow Liu Bei to this troubled water? But if you call him a hypocrite, it seems that he does not have this tendency, and his behavior is natural.

"The general is gracious." Sun Shao waved his hand lightly, not polite at all. Zhuge Liang didn't explain, so he invited Sun Shao to take a seat, Zhuge Liang sent tea, and went out, thinking that he was drinking and buying meat.

"General, I heard that Cao Ying's subordinates have a Zhuge birthday, and he is the same clan as you?"

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, and looked at Sun Shao in a daze: "Is the public holiday under Cao Ying?" ”

Sun Shao was also stunned, he only knew that the Zhuge family had a dragon, a tiger and a dog in the Three Kingdoms, the dragon was sitting in front of him, the tiger was in Jiangdong, and the dog was not Zhuge Day? That's why I asked casually, why didn't Zhuge Liang know?

"Oh." Zhuge Liang smiled and hurriedly explained: "Gongxiu is indeed the same clan as me, he is one year younger than me, he is my younger brother, but it has been more than ten years since he failed, and I have never known his whereabouts." Where did the captain hear about it? How is he now? ”

The black line on Sun Shao's head, how do I know. He smiled hiddenly: "I've also heard people talk about it, and the specific situation is not very clear, so I'm really embarrassed." ”

"Hehehe, it's okay, since I know that he is under Cao Ying, I will send someone to inquire in the future." Zhuge Liang didn't mind, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Sun Shao, "Captain, today I asked the captain to go to the cold house to talk about it, to be honest, there are some attempts." ”

Sun Shao smiled: "You want to ask about the new wine, right?" ”

"Exactly." Zhuge Liang also smiled, "I'm very curious about how the captain made this wine, and I hope the captain can give me some advice." ”

Sun Shao looked at him, took two sips of tea, and had a smile on his face, but he didn't speak, and only said after a while: "The general is so graciously invited, it stands to reason that I should be honest." But, hey, hey, General, this is my way of making a living, and you can't stop me, right? ”

Zhuge Liang was a little embarrassed, he originally thought that if he invited Sun Shao to the house, and asked for advice so sincerely, Sun Shao would have to say a few words, even if the key points were vague, he could understand it, but he didn't expect Sun Shao to be so faceless, and rejected him straightforwardly, refusing to show a word. For a while, he didn't know what to say, and in turn he had to say apologetically: "So, it's presumptuous." ”

Sun Shao was thick-skinned, he didn't feel embarrassed at all, he drank tea with peace of mind, thought about it and said: "The way of new wine, I can't say, this is not only my way to make a living, but also my aunt's way of survival." General Zuo married a new man and forgot the old man, neither gave my aunt a letter of resignation for her to remarry, nor gave me a little living expenses, my aunt can only point to this wine shop to live, if I tell you, wouldn't I watch her starve to death? How can I bear it. ”

Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly, but his heart was angry. If it weren't for the sake of face, he would have kicked Sun Shao out. Will Sun Shangxiang starve to death? She hasn't sold her wine to Chengdu now. Sun Shao explained that he accused Liu Bei of not doing things authentically, and married Mrs. Wu again without giving Sun Shangxiang an explanation, in the final analysis, this is a family matter between the Sun family and the Liu family, and he is not very good at commenting. But Sun Shao actually used this as a reason, and he was so angry for such a reason, which really made him very unhappy.

"The captain is serious."

"Hahaha...... Of course, this is just a joke, and I don't think the general will believe it. Sun Shao laughed, as if he had succeeded in his prank, and was very happy: "But I have a word that is not a joke at all, and I think the generals will definitely be able to understand." There is a so-called, the heavenly machine must not be leaked, otherwise there will be flying disasters. General, can you be trusted? ”

Zhuge Liang's heart moved, and the anger just now disappeared. Sun Shao's words confirmed his conjecture more and more, there was a secret in that winery. He picked up the teacup, took a shallow sip of tea, and nodded sympathetically: "I can understand what the captain said, since this is the case, Na Liang doesn't dare to ask." ”

The corners of Sun Shao's mouth twitched, and he looked at Zhuge Liang who was deflated with some pride, and then said: "However, thanks to the general's invitation, I really want to talk to the general about things other than this new wine, such as ...... This. ”

"Dao?" Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed: "What way?" ”

"The Way of Heaven."

"The Way of Heaven?" Zhuge Liang glanced at Sun Shao, a little disapproving. Although he didn't know much about Sun Shao's situation, it didn't mean that he didn't know anything. Sun Shao is a martial artist, a good martial artist, but his knowledge is average, and Guan Yu discusses the Spring and Autumn Period, he can only say that the first two volumes, and the back ones are not educated, that is, Guan Yu's half-baked man can only look up to him. He actually dared to come and talk to himself today, and he was so serious, isn't it boring to be self-deprecating? He was disdainful in his heart, but his face did not show a trace of strangeness, and he leaned over and said, "Liang Xi'er listens to the captain Gao Jian." ”

"Hahaha......" Sun Shao smiled heartlessly again: "General, Confucianism, Taoism, and ink soldiers, I don't know which one the general likes?" ”

Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment: "Of course, it is the Confucianism passed on by the sage." ”

"Words are not right, words are not right." Sun Shao pointed at Zhuge Liang in a big way, looking like an old-timer pointing out the little descendant, "The general is not sincere." ”

"Why did the captain say that?" Zhuge Liang asked with a smile.

Sun Shao fiddled with the teacup in his hand and said slowly: "Shao is not talented, I heard that when the general lived in seclusion in Longzhong, he called himself Guan Le. Is there such a thing? ”

"Yes." Zhuge Liang thought for a while, then nodded in response. Just now he invited Sun Shao to the house because Sun Shao said this, although he felt that Sun Shao knew that this matter was a little strange, but his brother was in Jiangdong, and Sun Shao occasionally heard about it, and it was not strange.

"The general is ingenious and good at the art of organs, but is there such a thing?" Sun Shao asked again.

Zhuge Liang frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and nodded: "Yes." ”

"The general entered Yizhou, took charge of the affairs of the general's mansion, and ruled Shu with the rule of business and Han, which is also obvious to all, right?"

The corners of Zhuge Liang's mouth were slightly crooked, and he nodded without smiling.

"That'...... What is the rule of the general? ”

Zhuge Liang smiled disapprenously: "Liang only reads for a general idea, does not follow the rules and sentences, and does not monopolize one classic." ”

"That's no cure." Sun Shao patted his thigh: "Guan Zhong, Zajiaye, Le Yi, Bingjia, Shang Han, Legalist, Organ Technique, Mo Family, General Tong, but only one classic, how can you say that you are in the way of a saint?" The general couldn't help but say it, did he want to scold me? ”
