Chapter Eighty-Nine: You can know the origin of my Zhuge and family learning
The court dissolved, and Sun Quan left Lu Su alone.
Sun Quan's face changed back to his original cold and weird, and he asked in a deep voice, "What does Zijing think?" β
Lu Su arched his hand, "I don't know what Wu Hou said?" Zhuge Ziyu's father and son, or... What is the situation in Soochow today? β
Sun Quan groaned, "All of them, you talk about them separately." β
Lu Su showed a little worry, "It was a bit too much for Wu Hou to lead the donkey out, if it weren't for Zhuge Ke to relieve the siege, Zhuge Ziyu would definitely suffer a great humiliation!" β
"What's more, now, because of the Hefei gambling contract, it has been rumored in the market, and some people say that this is a game laid down by Zhuge Ziyu and his brother Zhuge Liang... Although Su knew that Ziyu was not such a two-faced and three-sworded person, he would inevitably suffer such a shame and resentment this time... Perhaps, perhaps... Will be disloyal to the lord! β
Without waiting for Lu Su to chant all the worries in his heart, Sun Quan interrupted: "Zijing don't worry, Lone and Ziyu have had an oath of life and death for many years, Ziyu does not live up to Lonely, and Lonely does not live up to Ziyu... He is a man who is not righteous, and he is as kind as flesh and blood, and he is deeply informed. β
"When Kong Ming visited Wu State, I asked Ziyu to keep him. Ziyu said to me, 'My brother has followed others, and he has no two hearts. My brother won't stay, just as I won't leave. No one else believed this, but he believed alone. No one can have a long-lasting relationship with a lonely god like Ziyu, this is not a 'humiliation' that can be changed! Ziyu to me, I will definitely live and die! β
Speaking of this, Sun Quan paused, his tone became more and more heavy, and he muttered: "Zhang Liaowei is shocked and happy, and the lonely army of 100,000 is still frightened... In the entire Soochow, he is the only one who can bear the title of 'incompetent' for Lone and block the gossip! β
"Bang" punch.
It seemed to be talking about the sore spot, and Sun Quan slapped the case suddenly.
The missing corner of the case is especially clear.
Lu Su sighed for a while...
He sighed with emotion: "Admonish but not commit, be righteous but not resolute, will be ordered to the court, and forget his private position... Zhuge Ziyu can be a celebrity, but..."
With his praise for Zhuge Jin, a "just" changed the conversation suddenly.
Sun Quan raised his eyes, "Zijing is worried... Zhuge Yuanxun (Zhuge Ke), a young man who has not yet reached the crown? β
"Lantian Meiyu, add words to get a donkey..."Lu Su sighed: "The entire Dongwu, a young man of his age? Who could be so wise? Can... Such talents are often too sharp, and it is inevitable that they cannot be wronged. β
"Hehe..."Sure enough, Sun Quan's eyes were cold, and he pondered for a moment before he spoke: "Is it really wise?" β
"What does Wu Hou mean?"
"This is Zhuge Jin... Donkey! Sun Quan kept the accent on the word "donkey", and he said eloquently: "If I were him Zhuge Ke, I would never add that stroke!" β
Speaking of which...
Sun Quan's eyes suddenly became sharp.
Lu Su also shook his head slightly.
This son is too sharp, and he doesn't know how to hide... It's a blessing or a curse!
β¦
β¦
By the river, the water is murmuring, falling into the sun, Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke, one big and one small, holding a fishing rod together, looking at the water surface dyed red by the sunset.
Zhuge Jin had already taken off his official robe, and instead wore a coarse cloth short coat that only "white bodies" had, with his sleeves pulled up.
Zhuge Ke was a little careless... It's as if the mind is not on this fishing at all.
Zhuge Jin was the first to speak, "Do you know why I brought you here to fish?" β
Zhuge Ke didn't think twice, "The sages of the ancients all loved fishing, but Jiang Taigong is still fishing when he is eighty?" My father took me to admire the sages! β
"Hehe..." Zhuge Jin smiled, but gradually, this laughter turned into a bitter smile.
"What's wrong with my father?" Zhuge Ke noticed the change in Zhuge Jin's expression and hurriedly asked.
Zhuge Jin said with emotion: "Jiang Taigong fished to wait for King Wen of Zhou, but just now, my son lost King Wen of Zhou, who was his father!" β
This...
Zhuge Ke retorted: "Although he obeys his words, he has no responsibility, and he uses others to block him in case of trouble? And what's the use? If King Wen of Zhou is like this, Taigong Jiang has been defeated six times, is it not that he will be humiliated by King Wen of Zhou six times? β
Zhuge Jin smiled: "King Wen of Zhou was angry and took Jiang Ziya to be angry, but Jiang Ziya's son was not convinced, and he was also angry with Jiang Ziya!" β
Between this pair of Zhuge father and son, there are no taboos...
Talk about whatever comes to mind.
What Jiang Taigong, King Zhou Wen, what is convincing, angry... You can say it all.
"The child is just not worth it for the father!" Zhuge Ke pouted, "Second Uncle is at Uncle Liu Huang, how can he ever suffer this grievance?" When I get back later, I'll kill the donkey, and we'll eat donkey meat tonight." β
"That donkey, Wu Hou is named 'Zhuge Jin', how can he say kill it?" Zhuge Jin said with emotion.
"After killing and eating, Jiangdong's father died, and the surviving father joined me to join Uncle Liu Huang... Let that Sun Quan regret it! β
Zhuge Ke is indeed talented, but talented people are often very conceited, and they will have their own share of style.
He can endure it until now, which is enough to give face to his father and enough to Sun Quan.
But Zhuge Jin became more and more serious, "When others praise my son, my son always says, 'You can know my Zhuge Yi's family and family history'... But do you know, what is Zhuge Yi's family? What is the origin of family education? β
This...
Zhuge Ke blinked his eyes, ready to listen to a tirade.
Zhuge Jin said: "My Zhuge clan lives in Langya, Xuzhou, the ancestor Zhuge Feng has been smart since childhood, read the scriptures and read history, and is known as a prodigy, in the Yuan Emperor Dynasty, he did the Sili school captain, Guanglu doctor, but because of his upright temperament, he hated the corrupt officials and flattering villains, and later because of the impeachment of the ministers, he was demoted to the captain of the city gate, and was soon dismissed from the official and demoted to the concubine! β
"Then he gave birth to two sons... The eldest son is your grandfather Zhuge Xuan, and the second son is your brother Zhuge Xuan's father... Among them, your grandfather became the county of Taishan, and later was killed because of his upright temperament and impeachment of the ministers. When he died, your father and I were only thirteen years old, and your uncle Kong Ming was only eight years old..."
"As for my uncle Xuan, he will be a subordinate official of Yuan Shu, and the official will be too shou of Yuzhang... However, because of the unknown master, after the fall of Yuan Shu's emperor, he was replaced by another candidate in the imperial court, and the Zhuge clan has declined. β
Zhuge Jin talked eloquently, but Zhuge Ke blinked his eyes, a little confused.
"What did my father say about this?"
Zhuge Jin didn't explain, but continued, "Didn't you find it? From the ancestor Zhuge Feng, to your grandfather Jue and grandfather Xuan, has my Zhuge clan ever risen? Have you ever been thriving? What is this for? β
"Because..."Zhuge Ke wanted to say that it was because of the uprightness of the ancestors and grandfathers, and they didn't know the art of flattery.
But after thinking about it, I felt that it was wrong, "The child knows, it's my Zhuge family that has never had a backer!" Or... Like grandfather Xuan, he chose the wrong backer! β
"Good!" Zhuge Jin was pleased that his son could realize this, "It is because my Zhuge family has no backer and chose the wrong backer, which makes my Zhuge family never be among the world's famous families. β
"It was my grandfather who understood this point thoroughly, so he specially instructed his father, your second uncle, your third uncle, and your uncle... will slightly explain his perception in this troubled times and in this officialdom... In this troubled world, if the Zhuge clan wants to continue to last, then it must find a backer, but the world is strife? Who can tell who will die in the end? β
"If you make the wrong choice like Yuan Shu, then the Zhuge clan will fall into a situation from which you will never recover... For this reason, worried about the wrong choice, they simply scattered to find, to divide and defect to these princes, as long as there is a backer in the Zhuge lineage to find the right one, with the origin of the Zhuge family, it will be able to make some merits, and the lintel of the Zhuge clan will be able to prosper! β
Oh...
Hearing this, Zhuge Ke finally understood, "This is why the second and third uncles defected to Uncle Liu Huang, Uncle Born was an official under Cao Cao in the north, but his father was in Eastern Wu... Under Wu Hou! β
"And that's not all." Zhuge Jin continued: "Your eldest aunt married Kuai Qi of the Xiangyang Wang clan, and the second aunt married Pang Shanmin, the son of Pang Degong, a famous scholar in Xiangyang, also for the Zhuge family!" Otherwise, where do you think your second uncle's name 'Wolong' comes from? Why can he worship the water mirror as a teacher? How can he become Uncle Liu's most trusted person when he first arrives! β
Got it...
Now, Zhuge Ke fully understood.
It's because his vision is narrow, his father's forbearance, his father's "Mingzhe", it's not that his father is not competitive, it's not that his father doesn't know that Cao Cao's side is more powerful, and Uncle Liu Huang's side is more polite and virtuous...
Everything my father did was for the continuation of the Zhuge clan, which was a situation laid down by the Zhuge clan in troubled times.
ββThe so-called Zhuge lineage, the origin of family learning!
This is just a boastful word in his Zhuge Ke's mouth.
But in the eyes of my father, my three uncles, and my two aunts, I have to fight for it all my life!
No wonder, when Chibi was in the time, the second uncle would not defect to Jiangdong, and his father would not defect to Uncle Liu Huang, and Uncle Birthday would always be an official in the north.
No wonder, my father and second uncle are their own masters, and they spare no effort...
What they did was not only to show their talents, but also to prosper the Zhuge family!
Zhuge Ke sighed honestly.
Zhuge Jin stood up abruptly and cheered, "Hurry up..."
It turned out that a fish had been hooked, it was Zhuge Ke's fishing rod, Zhuge Ke stood up and slipped the rod, Zhuge Jin encouraged on the side, "Wu'er, don't let it run." β
Zhuge Ke lifted it hard, and a fish flew out of an arc and fell on the grass.
Zhuge Jin hurriedly held it down, with a smile like an old father.
"Caught it, my son caught it, for the father's relief... Solve it for the Father. β
Zhuge Jin was quite excited.
Zhuge Ke smiled, realizing his father's hard work, and for the first time, he personally felt everything that the Zhuge people had paid for the prosperity of the family, and he suddenly felt a lot heavier.
It's just that...
It seems that these still can't sway his decision.
Zhuge Jin followed Zhuge Ke and laughed for a while, his expression slowly dimmed, turned his head to look at the river, and fell into deep thought.
Zhuge Ke said empathetically: "The fish has also been caught, and it seems that King Wen of Zhou will not be hooked, father, let's go home!" The children are hungry! β
Zhuge Jin nodded, looked at the fish in the basket, and muttered for a long time before he said seriously.
"You caught this fish, you have the final say on how to do it!"
The implication is that Zhuge Jin stated his position.
His generation is destined to strive for the prosperity of the Zhuge clan and strive in the corner of Dongwu.
He would never turn his back on Soochow.
But in his son's generation, Zhuge Jin felt that he couldn't be too selfish, and his son's path should be chosen by himself.
Zhuge Ke blinked his eyes, "The child hasn't thought about it yet, but... The child thinks that even if it is fishing, but the lord of Dongwu is definitely not the king of Zhou Wen that the child has to wait for! β
As soon as this statement came out...
Zhuge Jin's expression darkened slightly, but he still nodded.
Ke'er is so talented, he should choose his own path in the future!
In fact, Zhuge Jin still had one more thing that he didn't tell Zhuge Ke.
That's... For so many years, Huang Yueying has not come out.
Kong Ming has mentioned several times that he longs for a stepbrother and a son...
Zhuge Jin originally planned to let his second son "Qiao'er" go.
But...
Now, he is willing to give this opportunity to choose to Ke'er!
Stay in Soochow...
Or go to Bashu, Ke'er, it's up to you!
(PS: In history, Zhuge Liang was not born in his early years, Zhuge Jin passed his second son Zhuge Qiao to Zhuge Liang, and after Zhuge Liang took a concubine, he gave birth to a parent. οΌ

The red sun sank little by little, and the vast land was about to fall into night.
When Guan Yu took Mi Fang and Ma Liang to the mansion of the thief Cao Peng, he was greeted by a basin of water.
β¦ A basin of water, this is nothing, but it can't stand a person standing upside down on the basin, with his feet facing the sky and his hands on the ground.
Several officials poured water from the basin on his head.
It's like washing his hair!
Of course, this is not your usual shampoo.
It's β handstand shampooing.
While washing, this person also refused to admit defeat and said: "I am willing to gamble and lose, I Guan Xing will be like my father, a man who does what he says, wash, continue to wash..."
Belch...
Guan Xing?
Guan Yu heard Guan Xing's voice, and his eyes suddenly condensed.
Inexplicably, he felt... At this time, hearing Guan Xing's "person who does what he says and does what he says", Guan Yu felt a little ashamed.
This kid usually focuses on practicing martial arts, but he is a little wooden, but it is not... So nonsense, right?
Handstand to wash your hair, it's also a shame!
Guan Lin and Guan Ping are also in... Guan Lin sat on the official chair, didn't say a word, and watched Guan Xing's performance with great interest.
Guan Ping stood at the door, covering his eyes, and couldn't bear to look at it!
Guan Yu, Mi Fang, and Ma Liang's entry attracted Guan Ping's attention, and he immediately gave his hand, "Father... Strategist, Mi Taishou..."
Guan Lin also noticed them, and his eyes rolled.
What's going on today? Which gust of wind blew this strange "combination"?
What is recorded in the history books is not... Is there a disagreement between Guan Yu and Mi Fang?
Isn't that right?
Why are the two of them standing so close today? This distance... It's got a bit of a good brother's taste.
How do you look at it, this combination is a bit weird, right?
"Yun Chang, this..."
Mi Fang couldn't help but ask, he was also a little confused, the official office of the fourth son, the second son washed his hair upside down, the eldest son couldn't bear to look at it directly, which one was this?
"Ahem..."Guan Yu deliberately "coughed"...
This cough doesn't matter, Guan Xing, who was washing his hair upside down, trembled all over, and he didn't control his balance and fell down, and his head was planted in the basin.
The whole thing is embarrassing!
"Daddy... (coo-too) Dad... Guan Xing raised his face, but the water in his mouth couldn't stop squirting out, "Goo,
The sound of "grunt" continued.
At this moment, he is like a frog squirting water.
Guan Yu's cheeks suddenly turned cold.
His tone was cold.
- "Can anyone tell me?" What's going on here? β
