When everyone returned home, Zhuge Jin went to see Hua Tuo alone, and watching Zhuge Jin in front of him grow step by step, Hua Tuo's heart was also full of relief. Zhuge Jin greeted Hua Tuo for a long time and told him to take care of the Zhang family, and then he said goodbye and left.

Hua Tuo is now also a spring breeze, in Taishan Professor of the apprentice has accumulated more than 500 people, after this year's professor, has been basically out of the teacher, rushed to Qingxu all over the country, the year is not confused Hua Tuo's mind gradually precipitated, became a professional doctor of the Zhuge family, and now only Zhang Zhongjing is still diligently teaching disciples.

Time flies, at the end of 185 A.D., the Han Dynasty was full of turmoil, first Zhu Jun took over as the general of the right chariot cavalry, and Zhang Yan of the Yellow Turban was recruited by the imperial court to take charge of the affairs of the mountainous areas north of the Yellow River. In order to build the palace, Emperor Ling of the Later Han Dynasty increased the tax on acres of land across the country, and ordered all localities to transport building materials into Beijing. Soon after, Emperor Ling built the Wanjin Hall, stored personal funds and materials, purchased real estate in the river, and scattered the savings in the homes of various eunuchs.

Then Situ Yuan Kui was dismissed and replaced by Cui Lie, the imperial lieutenant, and Deng Sheng, the imperial lieutenant, was removed from his post and replaced by Zhang Yan, the imperial servant. In June, 12 people, including Zhang Rang, a regular attendant of the Central People's Republic, were made marquis for their meritorious service in the crusade against the Yellow Turban, and the eunuch power was unmatched for a while. Not long after, Sikong Yang Ci died, succeeded by Guanglu doctor Xu Xiang, the clan Liu Tao was imprisoned for writing a letter to accuse the eunuchs, and then killed himself in prison, and soon, the former Situ Chen Tan was killed by the eunuchs at the same time, died in prison, and the struggle between the two factions of Zhang Rang and He Jin in the court became increasingly fierce.

In July, the Qiang people rebelled, and the edict ordered Huangfu Song, the general of the left chariot cavalry, to guard Chang'an and crusade against the rebellion. Later, due to the plague of borers in the Sanfu area, Huangfu Song was deposed, promoted Sikong Zhang Wen to the general of the chariot cavalry, and Yuan Peng of Jinwu as his deputy, leading the army to conquer the Xiqiang troops.

In the same year, Dong Zhuo and Bao Hong's combined forces defeated the Xiqiang troops, and Bian Zhang and Han Sui retreated to Yuzhong. Dong Zhuo attacked Lingqiang first, Zhongji was surrounded, and he was able to escape safely by using stratagem, and the official army was defeated, leaving only Dong Zhuo to save the army and emerge in Liangzhou.

Zhuge Jin sat at home peacefully, watching the strife in the world, and secretly sighed that Emperor Ling was mediocre, this foundation of the country has been stirred into a pot of porridge, and his people can still be greedy for pleasure and lust. During this time, Zhang Rang and He Jin sent people to woo Zhuge Jin, but they were all vaguely passed, which made both sides unhappy, but because of Cai Yong's name, He Jin did not do too much to do anything, but Zhang Rang and others gradually lost their patience, and saw that Zhuge Jin slowly won the favor of Emperor Ling, so they naturally pointed the finger at Zhuge Jin.

"Our family has long said that this Zhuge Jin is a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, and now it's good to grab our jobs." In the capital, in Zhang Rang's mansion, a piercing cry came out.

"Okay Duan Gong, it's better than falling to He Jin, the butcher." A middle-aged man sitting at the top spoke, only to see that his face was white, his cheeks were covered with red powder, and his lips were smeared with vermilion, which looked very bewitching.

"What Zhang Gong said is very true, although this person has some skills in slapping horses, he is not as good as us living in the palace for a long time, but this son is too slippery, we have to think of a way to make it our talent." Another person in the hall spoke. It turned out that today was the gathering of the ten permanent servants in Zhang Rang's mansion to discuss the plan. Since a few people became a marquis, a few people no longer have any scruples, every time after a while, they will gather in Zhang Rang's mansion, and today is the day when several people gather again.

"Hou Gong's words are also bad, Zhuge Xiao'er is close to the eldest prince, he will definitely become a party in the future, why don't we design it, eradicate it first, you must know that the first strike is strong, this son is now deeply rooted in the sacred heart, if it is promoted by the great prince to be established, then I will die without a place to be buried." Everyone in the hall listened, turned their heads to look, and saw that it was Zhao Zhong, and several people had their own thoughts in their hearts.

Zhang Rang pondered for a long time, and then asked Zhao Zhong, "Does Zhao Gong have an idea in his heart?" ”

Zhao Zhong didn't take it seriously, he laughed hehe, his voice was sharp and harsh, several people looked at each other, only to hear Zhao Zhong muttering in a low voice: "That Zhuge Jin is young and handsome, we just need to be so ...... like this"

"Uh, haha......" Several people listened to it, and they all laughed cheaply.

After a while, Zhang Rang seemed to remember something, and asked with a frown: "This method is okay, but it's just the ...... of the saint."

"Don't worry, Zhang Gong, God knows this matter, you know and I know, it's about our lives, I don't think anyone wants to leak it out, right?" Zhao Zhong patted Zhang Rang's shoulder and persuaded him, and at the end, he glanced at everyone with a stern look.

"Naturally, it's ......" Several people saw it and nodded in agreement.

At this time, Zhuge Jin, who still didn't know that he had been calculated, was looking at the invitation in his hand with a sad face, as the saying goes, again and again, not again and again, He entered the mansion for a banquet, this is the third time to send an invitation, if he refuses, it is estimated that even if he is in the name of Cai Yong, He Jin will give him a few pairs of small shoes to wear.

Jia Xu was not worried, he waved the feather fan in his hand calmly, I really don't know, in this winter, won't the fan wind be cold: "Lord, there is no need to worry about this matter, I have already decided to temporarily take refuge in He Jin, and now the lord has rejected it twice, but now the time has come, and I can take this opportunity to show it to He Jin." ”

Zhuge Jin thought about it for a long time, and his brows were still locked: "It's just that now that the eunuchs are powerful, although I am not afraid, I am also troublesome." ”

"Hehe, the lord is in the game, at this time, he is at a disadvantage, the lord goes to vote, he will definitely be able to get his mind, as for Zhang Rang and the like, now the lord's holy favor is strong, how can he be embarrassed by the lord." Jia Xu couldn't help but laugh when he heard Zhuge Jin's worries.

After hearing this, Zhuge Jin was a little surprised: "This is Jin confused, and I want to thank Mr. Guo for his advice." As he spoke, he thanked Jia Xu, and then continued: "In this case, we are invited to participate this time, Wenhe, you should make some preparations." ”

"Yes, my lord." Seeing that Zhuge Jin quickly understood, Jia Xu was very relieved, nodded and agreed, and then retired and left.

The general He Jin was in the mansion, and He Jin was also discussing with his staff.

"Ziyuan, are you really sure that Zhuge Jin will accept this invitation?" In the main hall of the house, He Jin sat on the main seat, a little worried.

Xu You saw it, and said disdainfully: "General, please rest assured, forgive him for a little child, how dare you refuse the general's invitation three times, you think that this son will definitely come to the banquet this time, if he is smart enough, this time he must come to serve, and at that time, the general can try his sincerity." ”

"Oh? What should I do? He Jin listened to Xu You's words, his brows loosened slightly, and then he raised slightly, looking at Xu You suspiciously.

Xu You first looked at the other people in the hall, and saw that everyone was curious, and felt a little proud in his heart: "Without him, gold and silver, beauty, and power are the ears." ”
