"Mr. Zhuge !" Sitting in the boat and drifting with the waves, enjoying the scenery of Huaishui, Zhuge Jun heard the shouts of people on the shore.

Turning his head to look at the shore, what appeared in his field of vision was several Qin soldiers on war horses who were running along the Huai River, shouting loudly.

The Qin army, who made the shout, did not see him, and rode his horse and went downstream.

"Are those soldiers looking for Mr." Stretching his neck and looking towards the shore, the boat man asked Zhuge Jun.

"Leave them alone!" Smiling slightly, Zhuge Jun waved his hand and said: "And let them find it, the scenery has not yet been appreciated and transparent, how can I go!" ”

His answer was undoubtedly to tell him that the Qin army on the shore was looking for him.

With some hesitation on his face, the boat seemed to want to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he still didn't say it.

Zhuge Jun was wearing a robe, and he could see at a glance that he was a person who read poetry and books, and the boat was holding a boat in the river all the year round, and he didn't even know a single big character, so it was really inappropriate to remind people who had read books what to do.

In his heart, he decided that Zhuge Jun had an idea, and the boat held the boat all the way downstream.

On the shore, several Qin soldiers searched around, and almost every painting boat and show boat were searched, but Zhuge Jun was not seen.

Standing on the shore, Qin Jun, who came from Luoyang to convey Liu Wei's order, frowned and muttered: "This Zhuge Jun is not good!" ”

The few Shouchun soldiers who accompanied him here were silent.

Since Zhuge Jun entered Shouchun, they can see him from time to time.

But every time I saw him, he was either wandering around the market or drinking in the restaurant, but he didn't see him wandering around Fireworks Willow Lane.

To say that Zhuge Jun would go so far to find Mei Ji, these soldiers really didn't believe it.

In the Huaishui, Zhuge Jun sat on the bow of the boat and took out the bag that Zhuge Liang gave him from his arms.

Opening the bag and reading them one by one, he tore the branches that said he was written and threw them into the river.

The shredded paper is like a fluttering vegetable powder butterfly, whirling on the surface of the river and falling into the river.

The pieces of paper fall into the river, and the river whirls through them, whirling them into small whirlpools, bringing them into the river, and then pushing them out of the river.

After several times, the paper soaked in the river finally sank into the river.

Looking at the pieces of paper that sank into the water, Zhuge Jun stood up and said to the boatman: "Uncle, this farewell, I'm afraid it will take some time to meet!" ”

"Mr. is leaving?" After a few days of holding a boat to take him on the Huai River, the boat also got some benefits, and when he heard that he was leaving, he was really reluctant in his heart.

"yes, I'm leaving!" Nodding, Zhuge Jun put his hands behind his back, looking at the river in front of him, as if he was saying to himself to the boatman: "Some things, after all, there is a decision!" Even if they are brothers, I am afraid that they will have to be their own masters in the future! ”

If it weren't the boat who listened to his words, but someone who knew him, they would have known that he was talking about Zhuge Liang.

I don't know the general trend of the world, and I don't know who Zhuge Jun is, and the boat is even more confused.

But thinking about other people's affairs, he has nothing to do with it, and the only loss is that there are a lot of guests who have less money to travel all day, and the boat is calm.

"Isn't that Mr. Zhuge that?" Standing on the bow of the boat, Zhuge Jun was staring ahead, and a Qin soldier on the shore found him, raised his hand and pointed at the boat, and shouted to the herald from Luoyang.

The herald did not recognize Zhuge Jun, and when he heard the soldier's shout, he hurriedly looked into the river.

What he saw was a young scribe in a blue robe, with his hands behind his back, staring ahead.

"Is it really Mr. Zhuge ?" Turning his head to look at the soldier who found Zhuge Jun, the herald asked.

"Exactly!" Nodding, the soldier answered.

After determining Zhuge Jun's identity, the herald rode his horse to the bank of the river and shouted to Zhuge Jun standing on the boat: "Mr. Zhuge , on the order of His Royal Highness, I came to ask Mr. to rush to Luoyang!" ”

Hearing the herald shouting the words "rush to Luoyang", the corners of Zhuge Jun's mouth tugged, revealing a smile.

In the bag that Zhuge Liang gave him, there were three strategies written.

But these three strategies are of little use to him now.

The three strategies are nothing more than life-saving strategies, and what Zhuge wants is to gain a firm foothold beside Liu Bian, not just to save his life!

Hearing the shouts of the soldiers on the shore, Zhuge Jun turned around and said to the boatman: "Annoying old man, dock the boat!" ”

"Okay!" In response, the boatman propped himself up and drove the boat toward the shore.

The shouts of the soldiers on the shore were also heard clearly by the boatman.

The person whom His Highness ordered to be greeted must also be a nobleman in his opinion.

Since Shouchun and Xia Cai were completely merged into the territory of Daqin, his life has been much better than before, in addition to supporting the boat to survive, on the north side of the riverbank, he also divided a few acres of land.

Every year, don't say that you have a full stomach, even if you want to sell something, the income is enough to maintain.

Life was good, and the boat was inexplicably grateful to the King of Qin, so he also brought the person who the King of Qin specially sent to invite him.

The boat slowly approached the shore, and when the side of the boat docked to the shore, several Qin soldiers on the shore jumped off their horses, and the soldiers who ordered the ship ran to the side of the boat, hugged their fists and said to Zhuge Jun: "Mr. Zhuge , Your Highness, please go to Luoyang immediately, there is something important to discuss!" ”

"Did Your Highness say that you want to go to Liaodong?" Looking down at the herald soldier, Zhuge Jun asked as if he was very casual.

"I haven't heard of it!" Maintaining a fist-clenching posture, the soldier answered.

Zhuge Jun nodded, took out a handful of copper coins from his arms, handed them to the boatman and said, "Uncle, these are enough for today's boat fare!" ”

"Sir, just put the money away!" He didn't take the copper coin, and said with a smile: "Your Highness's guests are our guests, what is it worth if you take a boat!" ”

Stretching out his hand and pulling the boatman's hand, Zhuge Jun shoved the money into his hand and said: "The old man just takes it, if His Royal Highness rewards him, he will definitely not refuse." But it's not easy for my husband to make a living, there is no need to do this! ”

As a result, Zhuge stuffed the copper coin in his hand, and the boat nodded and said, "Mr. is also a good person!" Those who follow His Highness are good people! ”

Zhuge Jun nodded with a smile, jumped off the boat, and asked the herald soldier, "Do we want to return to Shouchun to get some things?" ”

"Sir, do you have anything important?" I don't know if Zhuge Jun has something important, and the soldiers don't dare to make a decision lightly, so they asked him a rhetorical question.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a change of clothes!" Smiling slightly, Zhuge Jun said, "You can do it or not!" ”

"There's no need to pick it up over there, please go on the road with Mr. and a certain earlier, don't make His Highness wait in a hurry!" Hearing that it was just a change of clothes, the soldier hurriedly said, "If the gentleman wants to bathe and change clothes on the road, buy some new ones!" ”

"That's it!" Nodding his head, Zhuge Jun responded.

With his promise, the herald turned back to the soldiers who had come with him and shouted, "Give me a war horse to sir!" ”

A Qin soldier who accompanied him jumped off his horse and led the war horse in front of Zhuge Jun.

Zhuge Jun was not polite to the soldier, held the saddle with both hands, and jumped on the horse's back.

"Please, sir!" When he got on horseback, the herald also turned over and jumped on his horse, and made a gesture of invitation to him.

Shaking off the reins, his legs gently clamped towards the horse's belly, Zhuge Jun rode his horse to the ferry.

There was no bridge at the ferry, only a few big ferries, and the herald soldiers accompanied Zhuge Jun to get on the big boat, and watched the big boat go to the opposite shore.

Standing on the side of the big boat, Zhuge Jun looked at the rushing Huai River, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was entangled in something.

"Sir!" Standing beside him, the herald asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

When he asked, Zhuge Jun showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his face was a little desolate, and he took a deep breath and said, "I just have some emotion in my heart." ”

He said that there was some emotion in his heart, and the herald soldier did not ask any more questions.

In any case, Zhuge Jun was the person Liu Wei asked him to invite.

If he arrives in Luoyang, Liu Wei doesn't reuse him, then it's just that, if he reuses him, he will be the official of Daqin in the future.

If the officer offended him before he took office, although the soldier would not have any trouble with him in the future, if he came to do business, he would indeed write more troubles.

The soldier who had come to invite him stood aside and said nothing.

"A certain brother, the eldest brother in the early years served the Jiangdong Sun family!" The herald soldier didn't ask, but Zhuge Jun said: "The second brother and a certain are ploughing in Longzhong." My two brothers traveled all day long, visiting famous friends, just to learn more about the ability to govern the world! The second brother is smart and famous, but he is stupid by nature, and he is not well-known. This time, the second brother wants to go to Luoyang, in order to find a position next to His Royal Highness, which can be used for shelter in the future! ”

Listening to what Zhuge Jun said, the herald soldier did not say a word.

Something like this, he, a soldier, simply had no chance to touch.

With his wisdom, it is impossible to give Zhuge Jun any meaningful advice, all he can do is listen and listen to Zhuge Jun's complaints.

"Since I was a child, I have followed behind my second brother, the world only knows Zhuge Liang, only knows Wolong Kong Ming, and who knows me Zhuge Jun?" His eyes narrowed slightly, and Zhuge Jun continued: "The second brother wants to serve King Qin, and he pretends to shirk it, and along the way, he is also pretending to be crazy and stupid!" If His Royal Highness sends a certain person to Liaodong, a certain person will accept his fate! Now His Royal Highness wants to go to Luoyang ......"

Having said this, Zhuge Jun turned his head with a smile on his face and glanced at the herald soldier beside him and said, "That's it, these are all later words, let's talk about it later!" ”

In addition to understanding his dissatisfaction with Zhuge Liang, the herald soldier didn't understand anything, blinked twice and looked at Zhuge Jun, opened his mouth slightly, and didn't say anything for a long time.
