phone-reading

Although Xun Zhen welcomed Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang was too young, only twelve years old, and this time it was Xu Yi and Zhuge Jin.

There was no way to "take over the host", it seemed too close to him, so Xun Zhen just gave him a few more glances.

Zhuge Liang is still a boy now, his stature is not mature, and his appearance is also childish. But to talk about it in detail, let's not talk about it, just in modern times, there are too many famous prodigies in the world. For example, Huang Xiang, who was used by Xun Zhen as an analogy to Zhuge Jin, was appointed Langzhong when he was a teenager. : "Unparalleled in the world, Huang Tong in Jiangxia", another example is Huang Wan, the great-grandson of Huang Xiang, who is now a commander of Sili, who was famous for his "wisdom" when he was eight or nine years old. Another example is Sima Lang, who is just 21 years old this year. , he was admitted to Tong Zilang at the age of 12, and his excellent response surprised the invigilators. Another example is Kong Rong, who is currently guarding Beihai. He is famous at a young age and is extremely intelligent. Therefore, although Zhuge Liang behaves well, he is different from many others. Compared with the famous prodigies at a young age, it is actually nothing, but it is so, Xun Zhen also praised in her heart: "It is worthy of being a prime minister through the ages!"

Zhuge Jin came with his stepmother. Since Xun Zhen wanted to get Zhuge Liang, he had to be very polite to his stepmother, so he ordered the attendants to send Zhuge Jin's brother's stepmother and Zhuge Jin's two sisters to the house first and then to settle in the house. , and explained to the attendants: "It can be said that I know your mistress: This is my concubine and mother, and I should pay respects deeply. If there is a shortage of daily utensils in the house prepared earlier, I can get it from the prefecture."

The attendant respectfully complied with his promise, guided him in the front, and took the stepmother and two younger sisters of Brother Zhuge Jin to the back house.

Zhuge Jin wanted Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun to go to the back house with him, but Xun Zhen left them behind.

He smiled and said to Zhuge Jin: "Sima Boda tested the boy boy, because of his growing body, the supervisor suspected that he lied about his age. Sima Boda replied: "My family members have grown up for many generations. Is this the case with the Qing family? Seeing that you are tall, Liang Yujun is two young boys, but also has the prototype of a great husband! I am delighted to see that I can make these two young husbands sit with me at the table, and I can also follow the story of Kong Beihai and Li Sili."

Kong Rong's story of seeing Li Ying is not only known to later generations, but has been widely spread today.

Zhuge Jin was flattered and said, "How dare you compare your inferior brother to Beihai!"

"Haha, I can't compare with Li Gong, so I just said 'chasing a little'."

Xun Zhen turned around and said, "Please come to Changwen, Fengxiao, and Yuanzhi, tell them, and say that I want to introduce the three of them to two golden and jade friends." Turning back, he smiled and said to Xu Yi and Zhuge Jin, "Changwen, my wife and brother; Fengxiao, my family's disciple; Yuanzhi, my former concubine."

Xun Zhen didn't ask Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu, Xun You, etc. to come, but because they were busy, and second, Xun Zhen knew why he greeted Xu Yi and Zhuge Jin so solemnly and enthusiastically, but Xi Zhicai and the others didn't. You know, although Xu Yi and Zhuge Jin are not mediocre talents, they can actually do it, but they are just as the people in the mansion think: they are definitely not the best people in the state, so they called Xi Zhicai and others to come. Out of politeness, they might be polite to Xu Yi and Zhuge Jin in person, but after seeing them, they turned around behind their backs. Xun Yu and Xun You were fine, but Xi Zhicai would definitely complain that Xun Zhen was wasting his time. , Therefore, it is better not to call this number of people.

After listening to the relationship between the three of Chen Qun and Xun Zhen, Zhuge Jin and Xu Yi both felt Xun Zhen's sincerity and honesty, and they both thought at the same time: "First of all, I (Zhuge Jin) is not young, so I welcome him out of the house, and then explain it to me. In the back house, be sure to pay respect to my (Zhuge Jinzhi) mother, and then invite people close to you to sit and accompany you, Duke Xun treats people, and pushes his heart into people's belly, which can really make people die!"

Even though it was their first encounter, Zhuge Jin and Xu Yi were deeply moved by Xun Zhen.

Xu Yi originally thought that he would resign and return home if he didn't like it when he arrived at the prefecture, but now, it has no meaning at all.

Xun Zhen's enthusiasm was all for Zhuge Liang, but it was unexpected that Xu Yi and Zhuge Jin fell in love at first sight. Looking at Zhuge Liang's bright eyes, looking at himself from time to time curiously and politely, and then looking at Zhuge Jun's ignorant and ignorant appearance, Xun Zhen was in a happy mood and couldn't stop laughing. In the eyes of Yi and Zhuge Jin, it was inevitable that they would mistake Xun Zhen's happiness because of them.

Xun Zhen first brought Zhuge Jin and others to the hall, and not long after, Chen Qun, Guo Jia, and Xu Zhuo came one after another.

Xun Zhen introduced Zhuge Jin and others to the three of them, and then introduced them to Zhuge Jin and others.

The three of Chen Qun were about the same age as Xu Yi, and a little older than Zhuge Jin, but not much older. The three of them were already smart, and they had been from Xun Zhen for a long time. They were quite experienced in picking up people and doing things, and knew that Xunzhen had summoned the three of them to sit and accompany them. It must be because they valued Zhuge Jin and Xu Yi very much, so they all worked hard and chatted with Xu Yi and Zhuge Jin.

However, after talking for a while, Guo Jiaxian realized that something was wrong, and said to himself, "How strange! Although these two have some talent, they are far from beautiful. Minggong is known for knowing people. I summoned Changwen and Yuanzhi?" He glanced at Xun Zhen and saw that Xun Zhen was looking at the hall with a smile, so he followed his gaze and landed on the two boys who were sitting in the hall.

How smart is Guo Jia? Immediately, he felt strange and said in surprise, "Could it be that Duke Ming actually summoned me for these two boys?" He immediately wanted to test the talents of Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun, but Xun Zhen discovered him in time. 's intention.

Xun Zhen thought: "Fengxiao is really smart! Just how did he guess that I called them, not for Zhuge Jin and Xu Jicai, but for Zhuge Liang? Strange!"

Because Xun Zhen was too happy, she lost her usual Yan Ran Chengfu for a while, and she didn't know her gaffe. Guo Jia saw it carefully, and she didn't realize that she didn't reveal any flaws, so she felt strange.

No matter how Guo Jia discovered it, he could not be allowed to test Zhuge Liang's talent in the hall.

Otherwise, based on the intelligence quotients of Chen Qun and Xu Zhuo, the two of them have not found any abnormality yet. When Guo Jia asks Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun, they will understand immediately. At that time, Xun Zhen is unable to explain.

Therefore, before Guo Jia opened his mouth to try Zhuge Liang, Xun Zhen interrupted the conversation between Chen Qun and several others, and laughed: "Jicai and Zhu Lang of Zhuge's family are far away, and the journey must be exhausted. Changwen, I'll call you. The three of you are here to let the three of you get to know Ji Cai and Zhuge Jun first. It will take a long time to come to Japan. In the future, you will be in the prefecture together. You can gather more in your spare time. Come here first today and let Ji Cai Zhu Jun rest. "

Chen Qun and others agreed.

Guo Jia said in his heart: "Duke Ming must have seen that I guessed the intention of him calling me to wait, so he interrupted Chang Wen and others by saying something, so as not to give me a chance to test the two boys. Since Duke Ming does not want me to try, I don’t try it.” Although he still thinks Xun Zhen is a bit strange today, because in his heart, “Xun Zhen is a chief official” is only second, and “Xun Zhen is like a master and a father” is the first, so since Seeing Xun Zhen as "like a teacher and like a father", if Xun Zhen didn't want it, he would naturally obey.

Zhuge Jin was turned by Xun Zhen as the son of the Hou's mansion, and Xu Yi was turned by Xun Zhen as a state councilor.

The clothes and ribbons of the two of them had already been sent to the hall, Xun Zhen handed them to them and smiled: "Jicai, Wen Qing Shanqin, I have prepared a good qin for you, and put it on the case in your house. , After arriving at the house, you can adjust it to see if it suits your heart."

Xu Yi was very moved again, and thanked him and said: "Ming Gong is so kind, I don't know why it is in return! Only if the liver and brain are on the ground, it will only work in case."

Xun Zhen helped him up and said to Zhuge Jin, "I have heard that Mother Qing can write, so I have prepared Zuo Bo paper and Bo Ying pen for Qing mother. You can ask Ci to test them. It can be taken from the palace again."

Zuo Bo paper and Bo Ying pen are both the most famous study utensils nowadays.

Zuo Bozhi was a Donglai native named Zuo Bo, a new type of paper that was just developed in recent years together with Mao Hong from Wuyang. Bo Ying pen is made by Zhang Huan's son Zhang Zhi. Zhang Zhi is a famous calligrapher at the moment. He is known as "Grass Saint". "Bo Ying" is his character. Also popular with scholars. The famous scholar Cai Yongshan has always been reluctant to write if it is not this paper or this pen.

This piece of paper, a sum, seems to be light, but it is expensive.

Just think about it: with Zuo Bo and Zhang Huan alone, how much can they make even if they do nothing all year round and only make paper and pens? In the case of domestic scholars fighting for what they want, how many people can get their wishes? Not to mention Zhuge Jin's family now, even before his father died, when his family was not in decline, they couldn't afford this piece of paper.

When Zhuge Jin heard that Xun Zhen had prepared these two things for his stepmother, he was very grateful, and then thanked him again: "Ming Gong is so kind, but Jin only hates the shallowness of learning and the lack of talent, so I can't repay it!"

Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun also bowed again.

Zhuge Jun was young, and he just followed his elder brother to bow down, not knowing what to say.

Zhuge Liang said crisply: "Jiaci has nothing to do, only books, Liang's family is poor, and he can't make Jiaci show his eyebrows. Brother Liang and Liang and Liang always feel guilty. With Liang and his younger brother, you can be filial to your knees, and you will be reborn together! Liang and both are young and stubborn, and they are not abandoned by great gentlemen. This kindness, when brother and brother share, repay it!" Saying that, he put his hands together, unfolded his sleeves, and bowed down again with a very solemn attitude.

Guo Jia has not left at this time.

Seeing Zhuge Liang's reaction, Guo Jia suddenly realized, "This boy is excellent!" But another doubt appeared in his mind, "Just, how does Duke Ming know that this boy is excellent?"

After thinking about it, I can't understand it, but Xun Zhen has always been a "god", and his comments on the consequences of many people and what just happened are all right in hindsight. It can be attributed to Xun Zhen's "God and Knowing".

After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Xun Zhen was even more happy, and personally helped Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Jun, and asked Chen Qun to take them to the back house in person, and also asked Guo Jia and Xu Zhuo to send Xu Yi to discuss Cao's residence.

Watching Chen Qun, Guo Jia, and Xu Zhuo lead the brothers Zhuge Jin and Xu Yi to leave, Xun Zhen happily rubbed her hands around the hall for several times, but couldn't settle down and continued to review government affairs, so she simply left the hall and returned. to the back house.

Chen Zhi had already settled Zhuge Jin's stepmother. Not long after she returned to the courtyard where she lived, she was quite surprised when she saw Xun Zhen coming back from the front, and asked, "Why are you back at this time?"

Xun Zhen has always been busy until late at night, and sometimes even spends the night in the front house to handle military and political affairs. It is indeed rare for Xun Zhen to return to the back house early.

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "Where is my son? Bring me here to see."

Chen Zhi asked her maid to bring her son.

The son born by Chen Zhi is the eldest son of Xun Zhen. Because he was born in June, Xun Zhen named him Ji Xia. He is only one or two years old and has just learned to walk.

Xiao Jixia was carried over by the maid, and when she saw Xun Zhen, she immediately became happy, stretched out her hand, and was about to hug Xun Zhen with a babble in her mouth.

Xun Zhen didn't hug her, but ordered her maid: "Put it on the ground and let him come over!" Then ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ clapped her hands and called him, "Ji Xia, come over!"

Chen Zhi was not happy anymore, and said angrily: "How can you walk in the courtyard? How can you walk in the courtyard? What should you do if you bump into each other?"

Xun Zhen disapproved and said, "When someone in your family didn't want you to marry me, why did you marry me? Isn't it just because I used to be in Yingchuan, and my name was 'Milk Tiger'? If my son is like me, he will fall. What can I do!" Called the maid, "Put it down and let him go!"

Chen Zhi felt ashamed and angry when she saw him telling the secrets of the two's boudoir in front of the maid. She had always paid attention to etiquette and beat Xun Zhen hard, and said to the maid, "Don't let it go!"

Xun Zhen laughed loudly, and then signaled to her maid to come forward, take her son, and hold it up in front of her. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it, Gu said to Chen Zhi with a smile, "Young Master, when he was first born, this son was really ugly. , but it is somewhat similar to you and me."

Hearing Xun Zhen say that his son was ugly when he was first born, Chen Zhi straightened his face and wanted to ignore him, but when he saw how he liked his son, no matter how he looked at him, he couldn't help but feel happy, and said, "You are leaving the mansion today. Returning early, teasing my son again, ... but what happened?"

Xun Zhen praised: "A husband who knows is like a wife!"

Chen Zhi's heart was sweet, but her face did not show, and she asked, "What is the happy event?"

"But I can't tell you."

Feeling that Xun Zhen was abnormal today, Chen Zhi was so happy and angry that she didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore. She asked her maid to fetch the clothes that she was sewing for Xun Zhen recently, and then she sat under the flower jungle on the side and sewed them finely.

Xun Zhen held up her son and teased him for a while, making him giggle, hugged him into her arms, pinched his chubby, rosy cheeks with her right hand, and whispered, "Ji Xia, Ji Xia, your father's son. If things can be accomplished, then your father will appoint a prime minister for you today!"
