Zhang Xi didn't expect that Zhang Fei, a black guy, was really jealous of Zhuge Liang.

And the reason for jealousy is also very simple and straightforward - since Zhuge Liang came, Liu Bei has been really good to him.

In the history books, it is said that "love is good and the day is secret", and in romance, it is said that it is "like a fish in water...... Anyway, it made Zhang Fei and Guan Yu very unhappy, and Liu Bei had to persuade them to let go.

Now, as far as Zhang Xi can see, it's no wonder that Zhang Fei is angry.

Now Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang ride together, and when they enter, they sleep together. Zhuge Liang had no place to live in Xinye for the time being, so Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang's family to live in his General Zuo's mansion, which was convenient for consulting day and night...... It's no wonder that Zhang Fei is jealous.

This treatment, with a little heart, can give you a direct desire to go crookedly.

But Zhang Xi thinks it is normal, after all, it is Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei, a model of thousands of years of friendship between monarchs and ministers, what can this level of treatment be counted, and later Zhuge Liang put his life on the line for Liu Bei's dream.

On Zhang Fei's side, there was also a Zhang Xi to help persuade Zhang Fei so that Zhang Fei would not complain, but Guan Yu was on his side...... Guan Yu is a dead tsundere, and he has long been displeased with Zhuge Liang.

Although it was inconvenient to stay in Xinye all the time because he had to guard Fancheng, Guan Yu returned to Fancheng without even participating in Zhuge Liang's appointment.

But Guan Yu's letters never stopped every three or five days, and when I heard Zhang Fei, they were all dissatisfied with Liu Bei's complaints, saying that Liu Bei treated Zhuge Liang too well.

Hawkers,Second master's temper...... It's good to get along for a while.

The second master is easily unconvinced, but once he takes it, he is really convinced, and there is absolutely no discount.

Well...... It should be fine after Huarong Dao.

In this way, after having Zhuge Liang as the leader, Zhang Xi's workload has been significantly reduced a lot, and he finally has time to educate Xiao Deng Ai well.

It's still the professor's "Book of Rites", but now it's the second "Qu Lixia".

Teaching children this kind of thing is difficult at the beginning, and when the child gradually gets used to the teaching progress, the next thing is much simpler.

In addition, Deng Ai, the child, is really smart, although it took some time to recognize and decipher words at first, but when he talked about the scriptures and meanings next, the speed of understanding was suddenly raised, and this child was quite good at drawing inferences.

Zhang Xi had no choice, for the sake of his master's face, he could only sneak a book and ask Xu Shu for advice...... This gave Xu Shu a headache too.

There is no other reason, Zhang Xi and Xu Shu are both children of poor families.

Although the two children of the poor family have their own strengths, they think that they are no worse than the so-called disciples of the family in practice...... But when it comes to the scriptures, they're really not very good at it.

Jingyi is a privilege that belongs to the family in this year.

The books of this year are limited by the carrier, every word is quite concise, and there is no punctuation, so there are often different interpretations due to broken sentences or different words.

At this time, some great Confucians will stand up and interpret the ancient books according to their own understanding, and these interpretations will eventually become scriptures.

But these days, the people who have the opportunity to read a lot of ancient books and have the time to do this kind of annotation research are basically people from big families.

Therefore, in order to ensure the status of the family and control the interpretation of this knowledge, these scriptures will be privately hidden by the family and become secret, and some books with annotations on the scriptures are impossible for the disciples of the poor to see.

Let's use an inappropriate analogy - if a poor disciple dies, he will complete nine years of compulsory education, and then there will be no one to teach you. But no matter what their qualifications are, the disciples of the family can at least finish high school, and the powerful ones can go to graduate school until they graduate.

Therefore, even a self-taught person like Xu Shu who takes the "Cheng Kao" route is not familiar with these scriptures, so he has no choice but to ask Zhang Xi to consult Zhuge Liang, a traditional son of the family.

Zhuge Liang is the descendant of Langya Zhuge clan, although Langya Zhuge clan has also fallen down over the years, but in the end it has not been down for a long time, unlike Zhang Xi and Xu Shu who have been down since their grandfather's generation, and the Zhuge clan is a central official of the imperial court in his grandfather's generation.

Zhuge Liang's understanding of Jingyi is obviously stronger than that of Xu Shu and Zhang Xi combined, and it is naturally easy to deal with a small Deng Ai.

But because of this, Zhuge Liang had a little interest in Zhang Xi's little apprentice, and casually asked a few small questions about Deng Ai.

Zhang Xi didn't expect that there would be such benefits, originally Zhang Xi planned to recommend Deng Ai and Zhuge Liang to learn the art of war, but when Zhuge Liang asked, he hurriedly praised his little apprentice that there is nothing in the sky and the world.

"My disciple is very beautiful, but he wants to learn the art of war, although Xi wants to teach it but does not know it, he really can't teach him...... Alas, ashamed! ”

Zhang Xi pretended to say, observing Zhuge Liang's reaction as he spoke.

As a result, in the end, Zhuge Liang just smiled, didn't say anything, and after commenting on the scriptures, he returned the book to Zhang Xi, and then sent the two people out in the name of official business.

Zhang Xi really wondered, this Zhuge Liang is too stingy, right?!

It's not the same to accept apprentices, you have the heart to accept Ma Yan, and you also have the heart to catch a Jiang Wei back to cultivate, this Deng Ai sent to the door, why don't you react at all?!

Zhang Xi didn't understand, it happened that Xu Shu was by his side again, Zhang Xi complained to Xu Shu, and sought Xu Shu's opinion by the way.

As a result, Xu Shu didn't understand it even more than Zhang Xi.

"Since you are a master disciple of the Yuan Chief, why do you want Kong Ming to teach?!" Xu Shu said in surprise, "If Xiao Ai'er is a teacher in the future, it is okay for the Yuan Chang to recommend Kong Ming, but now Xiao Ai'er has not yet learned a copy of the Book of Rites, but the Yuan Chang wants to recommend it to Kong Ming, so it is not in line with the ceremony, right?!" ”

Well...... Oh yes!

Zhang Xi understood, this matter, the pot is all on himself.

The rules of education in this era, worship a teacher, you can only learn from this teacher, until the teacher feels that he can't teach you, you can be a teacher, this will give a document proof, and then you can find another famous teacher or a teacher, you can.

However, if you learn art from others during the apprenticeship period, it is very taboo.

If the two are friends, or like Zhang Xi asked Xu Shu, just a temporary substitute teacher to take a look, this is not a big problem.

But the relationship between Zhuge Liang and Zhang Xi is not a friend, and he is a colleague to death. And the meaning of Zhang Xi's words was to let Zhuge Liang teach Deng Ai such an important knowledge of the art of war...... Zhuge Liang didn't pay attention to Zhang Xi.

If you want to find a student, you can find it yourself, there are many smart people in this world, and there is no need to teach a student with Zhang Xi.

Zhang Xi understood Zhuge Liang's thoughts and concerns, and knew that this matter could not be solved in a short time...... At least after I finished teaching Deng Ai's "Book of Rites", I had a reason to let Deng Ai become a teacher, and then recommend it to Zhuge Liang.

However, Zhang Xi is not out of the question.

From this day on, every half a month, Zhang Xi took Xiao Ai'er to General Zuo's Mansion to meet Zhuge Liang under the banner of seeking scriptures and righteousness.

Let's not recommend it in a hurry, but we can get familiar with it first.

Besides, with Xiao Ai'er's cleverness, if Zhuge Liang really likes it, maybe there is also the possibility of teaching it in advance.

It's just that in this way, Zhuge Liang is speechless.

Of course, Zhuge Liang could see Zhang Xi's thoughts...... But one thing to say, although Zhuge Liang admires Deng Ai's intelligence, he doesn't have much good impression of Deng Ai.

Zhuge Liang admitted that Deng Ai is a very smart child, learns everything quickly, and the most important thing is that he is very knowledgeable and can draw inferences.

These Zhuge Liang all admitted and knew that Deng Ai was indeed a good seedling for learning.

But Zhuge Liang didn't like the arrogance that Deng Ai hid in his heart.

People can be proud, but they can't be arrogant.

This is Zhuge Liang's understanding of the way of dealing with the world.

But little Deng Ai is different, he has no father since he was a child, and his mother has always raised him, and the situation of the Deng family, if you want to say that Deng Ai doesn't know anything about it, it's impossible.

Coupled with his stuttering, he has been ridiculed all the time, and the more anxious Deng Ai is, the more difficult it is to speak...... After a long time, Deng Ai is somewhat anxious, looking down on his peers, but also very much wanting to prove himself.

Zhuge Liang didn't like such people too much, so he never wanted to teach Deng Ai the idea in person.

But for Zhang Xi's sake, Zhuge Liang couldn't say anything, so he had to mention it euphemistically several times - Xu Shu is a very good teacher.

Xu Shu's temperament, although he is very free and easy, also has an inferiority complex in his bones, an inferiority complex from a poor background.

Xiao Deng Ai should be more suitable for Xu Shu's aesthetics, and Xu Shu's military level is not bad, at least in this troubled world, he is also the number one in the ranks, why bother to find himself? !

In fact, the most suitable teacher for Xiao Deng Ai in Zhuge Liang's heart is not Xu Shu, but the big-faced plate...... Well, forget it, it's better not to teach Xiao Deng Ai badly.

Zhang Xi didn't hear Zhuge Liang's hint, and still insisted on taking Xiao Deng Ai to Zhuge Liang.

But Xiao Deng Ai's sensitive little heart is a little unbearable.

One, he was keenly aware that Zhuge Liang didn't like him.

Although every time he asks for advice, Zhuge Liang answers him seriously, and he will explain in detail what he doesn't understand...... But that attitude is completely different from the attitude of Master and Master Xu towards him.

On the other hand, Xiao Deng Ai doesn't want his master to always bring him to the door to ask for help, which will make people feel that their master's knowledge is not as good as Zhuge Liang's.

Although Zhang Xi took this for granted, he was not as good as Zhuge Liang.

If you look for the whole history book, how many people can you find who is stronger than Zhuge Liang?!

But Deng Ai didn't think so, he didn't want the master to be inferior, especially for his own student to come to the door to beg for help.

Therefore, since then, Deng Ai silently wrote down anything he didn't understand in the scriptures, and planned to ask others for advice when he became a teacher in the future.

At that time, when others asked, it could be said that I was not attentive when studying, and the teacher told me that I didn't remember it...... It's my own problem, not the teacher's level.

Then, Zhang Xi suddenly found that Xiao Deng Ai's learning progress was "swishing", like riding a rocket, super fast.

"Qu Lishang" was studied for two months, but in the next six months, he completed the entire "Book of Rites".

Zhang Xi felt that Xiao Ai'er was fooling herself, and she didn't know how to pretend to understand.

But with Zhang Xi's level of righteousness, I really can't find out whether Xiao Deng Ai is fooling himself.

I have the heart to ask Zhuge Liang to help investigate, but Zhuge Liang has been very busy recently.

Not only Zhuge Liang is very busy, Xu Shu is also very busy, and Liu Bei is even busier.

As soon as half a year has passed, it is the late autumn season again, the grain harvest is over, and it is time to use soldiers.

At this time, Wancheng's side really started to move again, and this time the general of Wancheng was replaced by Xiahoudun.
