Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 423 Zhuge Kongming
"Hahaha, even if you want to go in, you will never be let in!"

"This kid is unusual~"

Hearing the kid's slightly arrogant words, everyone laughed and booed one after another, and some even advised the soldiers to let the kid in quickly, otherwise they would regret it in the future. The scholars returned to their positions, but the scholars around them were all students of the Imperial Academy, and they were not afraid of them.

Many of them entered the Taixue through government schools this time. In fact, many of them were not government school students, but they were not qualified to enter the Taixue because Wang Fu once issued a restriction order on the family. Taixue will not admit all students from the same family. In addition, Wen Rengong has also issued a restriction order, and each additional student will have to pay more money.

When an aristocratic family has more than ten children entering the school, the amount of money that needs to be paid will reach an astronomical figure, which makes these behemoths feel distressed, and at the same time, they don't forget to abuse this stingy Sikong. Ling Kebi is much hotter than Wang Fu!

The aristocratic families are also fortunate. Compared with those old monsters in the Jianning era, Xiping's new officials are undoubtedly much cuter. Although today's ministers, such as Cao Cao, Xun You, Xun Yu, etc. There are ghosts like Guo Jia who have won all four subjects, but they are undoubtedly much more immature than those old monsters in the Jianning period
Regarding this statement, Cao Cao and other ministers have also heard a little bit, but they are not convinced in their hearts. The aristocratic families will not argue with them, believe it or not. You boys can't even leave a whole body.
Among the crowd, the fat man pointed at the kid and laughed, turned his head, and said to the burly man next to him, "Did you hear that? This guy actually said that he would never step into Taixue, okay, yes, what's the matter?" The style of a prince, hahaha, he thought he was...huh?"

There was some hesitation on the fat man's face, and he asked, "Who did he say he was just now?"

After all, the burly and strong man is the eyes and ears of the emperor, seeing all directions and hearing all directions, he remembered it very clearly, and replied in a low voice: "Patriarch, his name is Zhuge Liang."

"The Biography of Zhuge Liang"

He said a few words in a daze, then turned his head suddenly, stared at the boy, and looked at him seriously. The burly man didn't know why the emperor had such a reaction, and he didn't dare to ask. The emperor thought about it, but didn't say anything.

The kid looked at the taunting Taixue students around him, and there was no anger on his face anymore. He smiled, bid farewell to everyone, and walked out with his entourage. The people didn't stop him, they just talked enthusiastically Regarding this matter, disdain flashed in their eyes from time to time, they had worked so hard to get into the Tai Academy, if such young children can be with themselves, wouldn't it mean that their talents are like boys?

How can they bear this?
Of course, not all students are like this, and there are a few people who shake their heads and sigh helplessly. They don't believe what Zhuge Liang said, but they just think that such a young boy can be neither humble nor arrogant. It's a pity that this is a good seedling, Zhuge Liang didn't care about their eyes, he took out the book from the package, and walked outside while reading.

After walking for a while, a follower said cautiously: "Young Patriarch, there are four people following us all the way."

Zhuge Liang was startled, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, don't say too much, this is Luoyang."

Only then did the attendant calm down, Zhuge Liang slowed down his pace, but he didn't turn his head back, but seeing the tense face of the attendant, he knew that the other party must still be following them, Zhuge Liang frowned, and looked around quietly , finally, he saw a house and the surrounding soldiers, he slowed down and stopped deliberately.

When the group approached them, Zhuge Liang suddenly turned around and looked at them head-on.

Those who followed them all the way were four burly men. The leader was dressed in extraordinary clothes and was quite majestic. Such a wealthy family, what do you do with me?Zhuge Liang just thought for a moment, and a very bad guess appeared in his mind.

I heard that many scholars in Luoyang are bold and unrestrained.
He was afraid in his heart, but his face was extremely calm. He smiled and said: "Your gentlemen have followed all the way. Now that I have arrived home, do you want to have a drink in the mansion?" He looked at the mansion not far away. The fat man had some doubts on his face, looked at the mansion in the distance, frowned, and asked, "Are you a member of the Dahonglu family?"

The mansion not far away is the mansion of Da Honglu Zhao Wen.

Zhuge Liangliang nodded and asked with a smile: "Do you want to be a guest?"

I don't want to, not only did the fat man on the opposite side not show the slightest fear and retreat, but he laughed, nodded, and said, "Okay."

Zhuge Liang was startled, could it be that he has been seen through by this person?Or did he know Dahonglu?He was a little scared in his heart. After all, he was young, so he couldn't think of a solution for a while. He looked around, but there was no one. Seeing the other person's appearance, the fat man shook his head, and told the burly man beside him: " Ask to open the door and let Zhao Wen come out to pick me up."

The man nodded and walked towards the mansion. Zhuge Liang was shocked when he heard what he said. This man not only knows Zhang Wen, but he is even qualified to let Jiuqing come out to greet him. Could it be the Sangong of Chaozhong?No, the three princes in the court are all old people, but besides the three princes, who else is qualified to let the dignified Jiuqing go out to greet them?

Zhuge Liang reacted for a moment, was taken aback, took a step back suddenly, and bowed to the fat man.

"The boy has no eyes, please forgive me!"

"Hey, I still want to scare you. Get up." Fatty shook his head helplessly, disappointed, and Zhuge Liang got up. The followers behind him were stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered something, so frightened that they almost fell to the ground, and hurriedly See you, but the fat man didn't pay attention to them, and Zhuge Liang wasn't too sure, but now he was sure.

No matter how daring a thief is, he dare not pretend to be the emperor in Luoyang, he is still in front of Da Honglu's mansion.

Before he could ask more questions, Da Honglu Zhao Wen came out of the mansion in a hurry, and hurriedly attached himself to pay respects. The fat man looked around, helped him up with a smile, and walked towards the mansion. When Zhuge Liang and the others stayed still, he waved his hand and said, "You guys also come in together!"

Zhuge Liang didn't dare to object now, and hurriedly followed, his heart was extremely excited, his eyes were eager, this is today, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he was lucky enough to meet the emperor, his whole body was trembling, his face was red, and behind him His entourage was even more unbearable. Since they confirmed the identity of the emperor, they have not slowed down, and their eyes are still terrified and confused.

It's not because of the bad reputation of today's son, it's just pure fear of the superiors. Although today's son can't compare with Emperor Xiaokang, and he doesn't have the title of holy son of heaven, his reputation is not bad, and the people still love him very much. The king's, just because he is the eldest son of Emperor Xiaokang, and he is also the crown prince appointed by Emperor Xiaokang himself.

In the past, Fatty had established a majesty among the officials through the Zhonglie Hall and the other party's conquest, and he had won the hearts of the scholars in matters of assessment and official studies. However, in terms of civil affairs, he has not been exceptional The outstanding contribution, although there is the reform of the army, but this matter is of little use to the common people, but Emperor Xiaokang abolished a series of tyrannical miscellaneous taxes, so that the common people are grateful to this day.

Walking into the mansion, the fat man looked around. As a big Honglu, Zhao Wen's mansion is not luxurious, but a bit shabby, and there are only six servants, which seems a bit unqualified for Jiuqing. The fat man shook his head. Nodding his head, he said helplessly: "Jiuqing's salary is not low, why is he living so simply?" Zhao Wen just smiled, lowered his head, and did not dare to answer.

After entering the inner room, the emperor sat on the top seat, Zhao Wen sat beside him, and Zhuge Liang and others stood in awe in the distance, looking at him, the emperor greeted Zhao Wen first, and then pointed out Looking at Zhuge Liang, he said with a smile: "Just now, this kid said that he is your clansman, so he came in to have a look. Your clansman is not bad, but he is very intelligent at a young age."

Zhao Wen looked at Zhuge Liang suspiciously, and asked, "Little baby, who are you?"

He bowed his head and said, "My boy, Zhuge Liang, is from the Zhuge family in Langya. His ancestor's name was Yufeng. Emperor Xiaoyuan was the captain of Sili at that time, and his father's name was Yufeng." Gui, who used to be the magistrate of Taishan County, uncle Xuan, is now Huaiyang Lingliang who lost his father when he was young, and grows up with his uncle."

"This year, Liang passed the official school examination by chance, so he came to Luoyang, but he never thought that after coming to Luoyang, he was fascinated by the Jianning stone scriptures, and his package was stolen, so he could not enter Taixue. He couldn't argue, so he wanted to go home. I saw people following me on the way, I thought it was a bad person, so I pretended to be a member of the Dahonghe family, I didn't know that His Majesty came here, forgive me!"

Hearing what he said, the emperor confirmed his identity in his heart, squinted his eyes, nodded, and said: "Langya Zhuge, I know, your father, I also know, when my father was alive, he once Mentioning the officials of several prefectures, I was promoted, and your father Zhuge Gui was one of them, if I am not mistaken, you have a brother and a brother?"

Zhuge Liang was even more excited when the emperor said such words, his eyes were slightly red, he nodded, and said: "The emperor actually knows about my family affairs."

"All the people in the world are my people, how can they not know?"

The fat man said, shaking his head, and said: "You are also smart, don't be delayed by this, I will speak to Cai Yong, you go to Taixue to continue your studies, and you must not return home to waste your studies, you My father passed away early, ten years later, I will definitely use you again."

Zhuge Liang bowed and said: "Thank you for your majesty's kindness. It's just that Liang swore an oath never to take a step into Taixue. Liang dare not break his promise, and I hope your majesty will forgive me!"

"Oh?" Hearing this, the Son of Heaven was not angry but happy, thought for a moment, and said, "Then, how about Menzixue?"

What he said was somewhat tentative. Most of the children of the aristocratic families hate the disciples. They feel that it is a shame to be with those poor families, even the sons of farmers who are not considered Han. The emperor squinted his eyes and asked, Zhuge Liang is also a child of the family, how would he answer?Zhuge Liang's face was calm, and he cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Liang will definitely live up to your majesty's high expectations, so that he can study hard."

"Okay, hahaha, I personally recommend you, don't make me lose face!"

Zhuge Liang nodded cautiously.

The emperor didn't pay any attention to this boy. Even if this boy is like Cao Cao in the future and has great talents in governing the country, he is just a child now. He can just give him some favors, and the rest will wait for the future. The emperor chatted with Zhao Wen for a while , So he ordered Zhang Yun's subordinates to send Zhuge Liang to Menzixue, and personally edited a copy of the book, and gave it to Menzixue Dajiu Zheng Xuan.

Out of the mansion, Zhuge Liang was still a little unbelievable, like a dream, the entourage behind him couldn't hide the joyful look on his face, Zhuge Liang sighed, the emperor's words moved him extremely, and he swore in his heart , must not live up to the high expectations of the emperor, and will make Taixue regret what happened today!
The embroidered clothes envoy took Zhuge Liang all the way to Menzixue. Zhuge Liang felt much more relaxed as he walked on the road, and talked with the embroidered clothes envoy from time to time. However, the embroidered clothes envoy was not a good talker. , did not answer some of Zhuge Liang's inquiries, before arriving at Menzixue, he saw a person walking over with a smile.

"Embroidered clothes messenger??"

"Who are you? Why did you come to Menzi to learn?"

The man walked over directly, and asked with some doubts. The embroidered messenger looked at the official uniform on the man, bowed, and said: "The embroidered messenger's Li Si, under the order of the emperor, sent someone to come here to learn."

The man became even more puzzled, turned around and looked at Zhuge Liang, laughed, and said, "Is it this doll? I came to visit an old friend, and I just happened to go to learn from them, so let me take this doll."

Hearing what he said, the embroidered emissary was taken aback for a moment, shook his head quickly, and said, "No."

The man smiled again and said: "Don't refuse, it's easy to do, you can't believe my identity, under the feet of this world, who dares to pretend to be an official, not to mention, you just want to send this kid to learn, I know Zheng Gong, I have many friends in Menzixue, and these friends are extremely close to me, even Zheng Gong, who is also my old friend."

The man started talking, without any intention of stopping.

Zhuge Liang frowned, he always felt that this person seemed to have some other purpose.

The embroidered emissary was stunned for a moment, suddenly remembered something, his face changed greatly, and he asked with some fear: "Dare to ask your Excellency, but you are Taiwei Changshi?"

"That's true. You don't know, I was originally Dong Yan."

"You don't need to say more, this person will be taken by you to Menzixue to meet Zheng Gong." After the embroidered clothes messenger finished speaking, he disappeared immediately and ran very fast, leaving only Zhuge Liang dumbfounded. What kind of person is it? , can make the embroidered clothes messenger who has experienced many battles fear like this?

The man looked down at Zhuge Liang and smiled.

"Little friend, what's your surname?"
