Chapter 39 Visiting Friends
Today is a rare day off.
In the Han Dynasty, except for the ten days of the Spring Festival, it was basically a five-day rest system.
Work five days and take one day off.
The system does have this system, but in these troubled times, the system of recuperation has also changed beyond recognition.
is like Zhang Xi, who once presided over the drill work in Zhang Fei's camp for a month, and like Liu Bei, he is basically in a state of all year round.
Hawkers, it's also hard work for the future Emperor Zhaolie, who likes dogs and horses, music, and beautiful clothes.
Recently, Liu Beijun has a lot of urgency, and he always feels that Liu Bei can't wait to prepare something.
On the contrary, after going to Wollongong once and meeting Zhuge Liang once, Liu Bei suddenly announced that the army would be on holiday, and the officials would take a holiday, and one day off would be three days off.
Although I don't know what the lord Liu Bei thinks, he can take a holiday...... That's a good thing.
Even Zhang Fei happily said that when the holiday is over, he will go hunting in the wild with the eldest brother and second brother, and Kou Feng and Guan Ping have made an appointment to exchange and learn martial arts with each other in the Guan family's martial arts training ground.
Originally, the two also invited Zhang Xi, but Zhang Xi didn't want to join in the fun.
He doesn't know martial arts, so why don't you go up and use these two bastard boys as punching bags?!
Another one, he also wants to take Xiao Qibao, Xiao Qi Xiaoba, and the four of them to go out into the wilderness together.
Although the time is a little late, it is almost autumn......
But before Zhang Xi could figure out where to go, he was dragged away by Xu Shu.
Destination, Wollongong.
Characters, Zhang Xi and Xu Shu.
This time, without the companionship of the lord Liu Bei, it was a simple visit to friends in nature, which was also what literati and scholars often did on their days off.
But Zhang Xi didn't quite understand why Xu Shu called himself.
It stands to reason that he is not familiar with Zhuge Kongming.
Although I visited Wollongong with my lord last time, it was mainly a conversation between my lord Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, and Zhang Xi didn't say a word to the future prime minister of the Han Dynasty.
Zhang Xi was indeed happy to visit Mr. Kong Ming, but ...... Mr. Kong Ming won't dislike him, right?!
Xu Shu didn't care, he pulled Zhang Xi hard, and said, "This time, first, let Yuan Chang and Kong Ming get acquainted, and second, you and I will join forces, but we can also embarrass Mr. Wolong, who is above the top." ”
Ha?!
This is human talk?!
Are you going to play with the Prime Minister?!
Xu Shu, Xu Yuanzhi, where did you get the courage?!
There is a title called "Wolong" in front of Zhuge Liang's name, which belongs to the elite monster with a name prefix...... If you're looking for someone to play with him, you should also find someone who also has a title.
For example, "Phoenix Chick" Pang Tong.
We both belong to the kind of whiteboard heroes who have no title or prefix, can they be other people's opponents?!
Zhang Xi didn't think that Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang had anything to deal with, after all, Xu Shu was smiling when he said this, which belonged to a kind of ridicule between friends.
But Zhang Xi really wants to say, you have an intelligence of 96 and want to go to the line with an intelligence of 99, I won't stop you, but please don't pull me, a person whose intelligence may be less than 80, right?!
We can't afford to lose that person.
But Xu Shu doesn't care, he thinks, maybe there will be a drama in this matter.
In terms of talent, strategy, and change, Zhang Xi is indeed not good at everything, but this guy has learned a lot of things, maybe there is something that Zhuge Liang doesn't understand.
Xu Shu, Cui Jun, Meng Jian, Shi Tao and other four people have long had opinions on this Zhuge Liang.
What do they say they are not the position of the state and county, but he Zhuge Liang compares himself to Guan Le...... If you weren't a friend, you'd have to punch this guy if you were screaming at him.
The scholars of this era are not weak and corrupt Confucians in the Ming and Qing dynasties, they are all real men who pay attention to "convincing people with virtue".
Therefore, when they get along in private, these four people will always change the law to make it difficult for Zhuge Liang, but every time Zhuge Liang can get out...... Whether it is talent or sophistry, the four of them are not Zhuge Liang's opponents.
But this has become a way for these people to get along in private, and they often hate each other together.
Today, Xu Shu's purpose of looking for Zhang Xi in the past is actually the same, he can't help himself, so he asks a friend to help him.
Unlike the last time I took Liu Bei to see Zhuge Liang, this time it was a pure gathering of friends, so I didn't have so many worries.
Xu Shu and Zhang Xi walked on the road for two days, Xu Shu told Zhang Xi many times about Zhuge Liang's "hatefulness", and when they arrived in Wollongong, it was already dark.
Xu Shu was not polite at all, he knocked directly on the door of Zhuge Liang's grass house when it was dark, and called Zhuge Liang up from the bed.
Zhang Xi looked at Xu Shu with a reasonable and arrogant look, and Zhuge Liang looked helpless with a black face, and laughed wildly in his heart.
It turns out that these historical figures also have such a cute side in private.
Zhuge Liang can't help Xu Shu.
This guy will be thirty soon, and he won't say anything about finding a partner for himself, and he doesn't consciously visit the house at night to destroy his married life.
It's tolerable, it's unbearable.
But...... It's a friend.
Zhuge Liang really thinks highly of himself, but he is outstanding in learning, and there are very few people who can be recognized by him and become his friends.
The people who were friends with him, Xu Shu and Shi Tao were from Yingchuan, Meng Jian was from Runan, and Cui Jun was from Boling...... Not a single Jingzhou local.
Zhuge Liang really only looks at his ability to make friends, and never looks at his background and status, so he is not very popular in the circle of the Jingxiang family.
Of course, a certain "phoenix chick" is actually not much better, if it weren't for the uncle of Jingxiang Mingshi, he might be even worse than Zhuge Liang.
Anyway, Zhuge Liang is really handsome.
Although Zhuge Liang was also very unhappy when he visited late at night, he still arranged for Xu Shu and Zhang Xi to live together, and the next day he officially entertained the two visitors.
Of course, a good face will not be given.
"Entering the door in the middle of the night, there is no courtesy!" Zhuge Liang accused Xu Shu in person.
And Xu Shu didn't care, and said, "Kong Ming compares himself to Guan Le, is it possible that he doesn't know how to manage Bao's friends?!" Jinshu is just emulating the sages and wanting to achieve a good story with Kong Ming. ”
That's right...... It's shameless.
Uncle Bao didn't run to knock on Guan Zhong's door in the middle of the night.
Zhuge Liang glared at Xu Shu hatefully, and said, "Guan Bao's friendship is a beautiful talk, but Ranliang's friend is a good man, not comparable to the sages." ”
Well, this is also quite choking, to put it bluntly, Zhuge Liang accused Xu Shu of changing his name and surname to Liu Bei, and he didn't even tell Liu Bei about his real name and past.
Xu Shu could only choke on and not speak now.
Changing the name to avoid disaster is excusable.
But if you have to meet the master, but you don't tell the truth, this is a bit too much to say.
This matter, Xu Shu is indeed not authentic, but he also has his own difficulties.
"You have your own opinions on this matter." Xu Shu stalked his face and stiffened his sentence, but he no longer quarreled with Zhuge Liang.
And Zhuge Liang saw that he had won, and he also smiled, but turned his gaze to Zhang Xi.
"This gentleman must be the friend mentioned by Yuan Zhi, Yingchuan Zhang Yuanchang?!" Zhuge Liang asked Zhang Xi with a smile.
Zhang Xileng paused, and then was overjoyed.
The Prime Minister knows about me...... Hey.
"After the end of school, I entered Zhang Xi and met Mr. Zhuge Kongming!" Zhang Xi didn't say a word, and paid a big salute to Zhuge Liang.
No shame, this is Zhuge Liang...... When we entered the Wuhou Temple, we had to kneel down, not to mention seeing me.
It's just that such a big salute to pay homage frightened Zhuge Liang, and he quickly got up in a panic and helped Zhang Xi up, saying, "Hurry up, please get up, please get up quickly......"
As he spoke, he looked at Xu Shu..... What's wrong with this friend you brought?!
Literati salute each other, basically just make a bow, and pay a big salute, which is the etiquette for treating teachers.
Zhang Xi paid a big salute to Zhuge Liang, who had only met for the second time, which was inconsistent with the ceremony.
Xu Shu also felt ashamed...... Still counting on this guy to scare Zhuge Liang with him for a while, why did he surrender before the fight started?!
And Zhang Xi, I'm also coming back to my senses now.
I was more excited to see Zhuge Liang just now, and I didn't think much about it for a while, so I took the twenty-five-year-old Zhuge Liang in front of me as the later Prime Minister Zhuge to pay homage.
Now Zhang Xi has also reacted, it is not etiquette to do this by himself, it can be said that he lost an adult in front of his idol.
"I have heard the name of Mr. Wolong for a long time, and Xi admires him very much, so I am out of shape, please forgive me." Zhang Xi hurriedly got up, and then made up for himself.
Although it is already a fact that people are embarrassed, but explain it somewhat, don't let Zhuge Liang think that he is a person who does not know etiquette and righteousness, and does not learn and has no skills.
Zhuge Liang didn't continue to investigate this matter, Xu Shu just glared at Zhang Xi, and then Zhuge Liang beckoned Zhang Xi to sit down again, and asked the boy to serve tea and chat with Xu Shu and Zhang Xi.
After chatting for a while, Zhuge Liang asked about Xu Shu's intention.
"Yuan Zhi is here, isn't it for Liu Yuanjun to be a lobbyist?!"
"You can't get out of the mountain, it's all in Kong Ming, why do you have to say anything!" Xu Shu looked at Zhuge Liang meaningfully and said, "You are here to offer countermeasures for Kong Ming and the lord!" ”
At this time, there was no such thing as "Longzhong Pair", which was the name given to this dialogue by later generations, because it was in Zhuge Liang's grassland, so it was called "Longzhong Pair".
"Huh?!" Zhuge Liang glanced at Xu Shu in surprise, remained silent, and said, "I don't know if you have any advice?!" ”
Xu Shu did shake his head and said with a smile, "Kong Ming's words are indeed a good article for a while, but there are also shortcomings in them. ”
Zhuge Liang continued to take a sip of tea soup calmly before saying, "I want to hear it in detail." ”
Zhuge Liang didn't believe it, he thought of a strategy for several years, and Xu Shu could find any flaws in a few days.
If this is the case, then Zhuge Liang said that there are too many heroes in the world, and I, a talentless person, will die of old age.
Then, Xu Shu began the first round of attacks today.
