The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Liu Zheng is a modern person, so naturally he does not have the idea of ​​patriarchy, nor does he have the idea that women should only embroider at home. He supports women to go out of the boudoir, and even go to the battlefield to be a heroine, but in this era , there are not many such thoughts.

Lu Bu himself was not particularly able to understand it. Even if he had such an idea, due to the secular world, Lu Bu would not bring it up easily, but the meaning of Liu Zheng's bringing it up is different.

Lu Bu was taken aback by saying such a statement.

Lu Bu had no children, so he had a daughter. Of course, he hoped that his daughter could inherit his mantle, but there was no precedent for a girl to become a general in this world, so Lu Bu did not rashly initiate this.

Now that Liu Zheng brought it up, the idea in Lu Bu's mind of letting Lu Qiling inherit his mantle immediately burst out like a ball of fire.

Leaving aside Lu Bu, just talking about Lu Qiling herself, she had dreamed that one day she would be able to fight on the battlefield like her father, become famous and become a female general, but now the world has restrained her, so she can only stay in the courtyard. , like other girls, learning to embroider and play the piano.

If, as Liu Zheng said, he could fight on the battlefield like his father, that would be what Lu Qiling was looking forward to the most.

"My lord, are you serious?"

Before Lu Bu could even respond to Liu Zheng, Lu Qiling couldn't wait to ask Liu Zheng if it was true.

"Can I still lie to you, as long as you can graduate from the military school, then after you come out, I will let you become a Qu Zhang, well, Qu Zhang is in charge of a thousand-man squad, and he can be regarded as a general. "

Hearing Liu Zheng's words, Lu Qiling's eyes lit up, and she immediately said to Liu Zheng.

"Okay! I will definitely graduate from your military academy!!"

Seeing that his daughter had already agreed, Lu Bu naturally had no words to refuse.It's just that I was a little excited, so I followed Liu Zheng's words.

"My lord, thank you very much. I, Lu Bu, have recorded this kindness."

Obviously, Lu Bu is also very satisfied with Liu Zheng's arrangement.

After all, Lu Bu had heard of Liu Zheng's military school. Even if he had never heard of the military school, Lu Bu knew that Wenpin, Zhou Yu and others all came out of that military school.

"Okay, just in time, next month is the time for the military academy to recruit new students. You can send Lu Qiling there when Fengxian arrives. Just in time, because of the northward relocation, the military academy will also move from Jiaozhou to Yangzhou. In the future The main school will be opened in Yuzhang, and there will be branch schools in various states and counties. Just let Lu Qiling go directly to the main school."

Because the address of Liu Zheng’s Military Academy has always been in Jiaozhou, it’s a little far away from him. It used to be fine. Liu Zheng’s territory was not big, and he didn’t think there was much in Jiaozhou. Now his territory spans half of China, reaching Jiaozhou in the south. From the north to Qingzhou, with such a geographical gap, it may take several months to open a school, so Liu Zheng still thinks that branch schools should be set up in various places.

At the same time, there must be a head school, and this head school is to cultivate the elite among the elites, and the branch schools in various places are ordinary generals, such as low-level captains, village chiefs and the like.

As for the elite students, they naturally started as the chiefs, and those who performed well were even directly generals. Of course, not all generals were recruited in the school, and there were also some staff officers who focused on strategy.

Thinking of this, Liu Zheng thought of the child of Zhuge's family in Xuzhou.

That Zhuge Liang was still too young to go to school, but Zhuge Jin was already 15 years old, and had almost reached the admission requirements for the military academy. Liu Zheng thought about whether to go there and take Zhuge Jin in too.

After Lu Qiling agreed, Zhou Yu, who was standing next to Liu Zheng, was rather proud, showing a smug look, and smiled at Lu Qiling who was on the side.

"Hey, little girl, if you just entered school this year, then you will be my junior, and I am your senior! Come on, call senior to listen."

Zhou Yu's playful smile was naturally not liked by Lu Qiling. Lu Qiling immediately changed her face and raised her fist in the air.

"What are you talking about, who are you calling a little girl, you little brat, believe it or not, I'll beat you up?"

Although Zhou Yu has been with Liu Zheng for two years, he is still only a 14-year-old boy. Although he has learned some martial arts from Dian Wei under Liu Zheng's teaching, how could he be Lu Qiling's opponent? See Lu Qiling He raised his fist, but he was also a little scared.

"Don't be arrogant, don't think that your martial arts are very good. I have a big brother in school. When you enter the school, I will let my big brother take care of you!"

The elder brother Zhou Yu was talking about was naturally Sun Ce who was in the same year as him.

It's just that Sun Ce's martial arts skills are much better than Zhou Yu's. Now he is the top one in the military school, and he will graduate in a year.

"Ha, you still have big brother, I will deal with you now!"

Lu Qiling is also a child, and if she can play with Zhou Yu, this tomboy will immediately chase after Zhou Yu and beat her up.

Following Zhou Yu and Lu Qiling's frolicking, Liu Zheng and Lu Bu chatted a few words, then left and Zhou Yu followed Liu Zheng.

Things are now on the right track everywhere, and they are generally recuperating. Because of the plague, Liu Zheng can take a breather for a while. Liu Zhengyi is stepping up his conscription training. On the other hand, he also pays attention to publicizing his reputation. , while recruiting talents.

Liu Zheng couldn't let people like Zhuge Jin go. When he returned to Yangzhou, Liu Zheng went to see him once. It would be more convenient to visit at home.

Before the military academy started, Liu Zheng planned to visit Zhuge's house again.

Chapter 633 Going to Zhuge's House Again

September 189.

With the arrival of September, there will be the chill of autumn, but it is not so early, and the temperature is the most comfortable.

Liu Zheng only brought his own soldiers, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce and other young people from the military school to Zhuge's house in Yangdu County, Langya County.

This time, I plan to directly invite Zhuge Jin to study at the military school in Yangzhou, and let the entire Zhuge family move to Yangzhou by the way.

The Zhuge family is quite famous in the local area. After all, Zhuge Liang's father and grandfather are considered to be of some status. Although the family is not a famous family, it is also a big family in the small Yangdu County.

However, after the death of Zhuge Liang's father Zhuge Gui, this situation changed somewhat.

With no pillars in the family and only a few children left, they will naturally be excluded by other big families in the county.

Although there was Zhuge Liang's uncle, after receiving the news, he came to pay homage to his deceased elder brother.

They even agreed to adopt Zhuge Liang and other children, but Zhuge Xuan was not in Yangdu after all, so he needed to move his family to where Zhuge Xuan was, which was not an easy task.

Liu Zheng brought his people to Yangdu County, and when he visited Zhuge's house again, it happened that Zhuge Liang's uncle Zhuge Xuan also came back to lead the Zhuge family to move the whole family out of here.

Zhuge Liang's uncle, Zhuge Xuan, was a small official under Liu Biao in history. Later, he joined Yuan Shu and succeeded him as the prefect of Yuzhang under Yuan Shu's arrangement.

The prefect of Yuzhang was originally Zhou Shu. After Zhou Shu's death, Zhuge Xuan was the prefect of Yuzhang. However, because of Liu Zheng's appearance, Yuzhang County was occupied in advance.

As a result, Zhuge Xuan also changed a lot from the historical trajectory.

Originally, Zhuge Xuan was still serving as a minor official under Liu Biao, and was the magistrate of a small county in a county in Changsha.

Changsha originally belonged to Liu Biao, but after it was occupied by Liu Zheng, Zhuge Xuan also took refuge in Liu Zheng. It's a pity that Liu Zheng didn't know that he had such a number one figure as Zhuge Xuan.

When Liu Zheng took Dian Wei, Zhou Yu, Sun Ce and others to visit Zhuge's house again, he happened to catch up with Zhuge Xuan who was lobbying Zhuge Jin's family.On the one hand, it is to help Zhuge's family take care of the funeral, and on the other hand, they want to take these people from Zhuge's family to live in Changsha.

It's just that when the family discussed this matter, there were some differences.

Zhuge Xuan proposed to sell his family property in Yangdu and move his family to Changsha County, but Zhugejin's stepmother disagreed. After all, this is the place where he has lived for more than ten years, and it is always uncomfortable to leave suddenly.

Of course, the most important thing is that except for Zhuge Jin who can support himself at the age of 15, the other children in the family are only eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest is even a few years old. It is difficult to take care of themselves at such an age.

Only Zhuge Xuan, the uncle, took care of them.But in this case, he had to move his family to Changsha County as Zhuge Xuan said.

"Sister-in-law, the most important thing I want to take care of my brother's funeral this time is to bring you to live in Changsha County. When would you like to leave?"

As a younger brother-in-law, Zhuge Xuan respected this sister-in-law quite a bit. Although this woman was only his eldest brother who later married, she was still the sister-in-law that Ming Media was marrying.

But this sister-in-law didn't intend to follow what Zhuge Xuan said, in his heart Zhuge Xuan was just greedy for Zhuge's family's money.

If she stays in Yangdu County, her family property is still there. Anyway, as a stepmother, she also has some sources of income and can be the master of the house, but if she listens to Zhuge Xuan and moves her family to Changsha County, Everything must be obeyed by Zhuge Xuan, when people are under the eaves, they always have to look at Zhuge Xuan's face.

So this is the reason why Zhuge Liang's stepmother didn't want to leave Yangdu.

"Second brother, it's not that I, the sister-in-law, don't want to leave Yangdu, but that Changsha County is unfamiliar, and the whole family moved there. I always feel a little strange."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Although I'm not a big shot, I still have an official position in Changsha County. It's not a problem to take care of your family. If you don't want to leave, you'll stay in Yangdu County. Both Langya and Changsha belong to Mr. Liu Zheng, so it doesn't take too long for me to come here, but the sky is high and the road is far away, I can't take care of you, and I can't take care of your orphans and widows."

What Zhuge Xuan said naturally touched his stepmother's heart.After all, there are five children in the family to support.Even if relying on these lands can make some income, the five children's daily life consumption is still very high. If Zhuge Xuan can help, it can reduce a lot of burden anyway.

But the stepmother was not so easy to talk to, she had an idea and continued to talk to Zhuge Xuan.

"I don't think it's better than this. I really don't want to move when I'm old, so I'll stay in Yangdu County for the elderly. Uncle, how about taking these children there and taking care of them?"

Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang and others have always had no blood relationship with their stepmother. Although there is a mother-child relationship in the eyes of the stepmother, they do not have that family relationship.In this way, the stepmother will not pay much attention to the whereabouts and life of Zhuge Liang and others.

Whether they stay in Yangdu County or leave with Zhuge Xuan, it doesn't matter to the stepmother.

When Zhuge Xuan heard his wife's words, he was smart enough to understand what the other party meant, but he didn't say any more, knowing that it would be useless, he could only sigh in his heart, and agreed wholeheartedly.

"Well, since that's the case, that's the only way to go."

After all, Zhuge Xuan planned to leave and give instructions to Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang and the others to pack up their luggage and leave in a few days.

But at this time, Liu Zheng brought someone to visit.

Of course, when Liu Zheng came to visit, he didn't go to see his stepmother directly, but went to Zhuge Jin, because in Liu Zheng's view, now that Zhuge Jin's father is dead, Zhuge Jin, the eldest son, has become the head of the family.

And Liu Zheng's purpose of coming this time is mainly because of Zhuge Jin, after all Zhuge Liang is still too young.It's not worth Liu Zheng's big blame.

After a notification at the door, Xiao Si led Liu Zheng to find Zhuge Jin, who was studying in his room.

Hearing that the servant said someone was looking for him, he came out, and was surprised to see Liu Zheng.He has a good memory, and recognized Liu Zheng at a glance as the person who came to his father's funeral a few months ago, and gave him a bag of money before leaving. This kindness has always been remembered in Zhuge Jin's heart .

Later, he deliberately inquired about who Liu Zheng was, but naturally he couldn't find out Liu Zheng's real identity with his ability. Later, their Zhuge family in Yangdu County was quite valued and favored by the county magistrate. This made Zhuge Jin's clever little mind more and more curious about Liu Zheng.

Chapter 634 Zhuge Jin's Thoughts

"Little Zhuge, I haven't seen you for a few months, so don't come here without any problems."

Seeing that it was Liu Zheng, Zhuge Jin was naturally quite happy, and took the initiative to talk to Liu Zheng.

"I didn't expect to meet again so soon, and let the adults come to visit. I'm really sorry. I should come out to greet you."

"Actually, I'm here just for you, why don't we go in and talk."

Liu Zheng took the initiative to make friends with Zhuge Jin, and Zhuge Jin also knew that Liu Zheng's status was unusual, so he naturally guided Liu Zheng into his courtyard politely.

Not many people entered the mansion, Liu Zheng only brought Dian Wei, Sun Ce, and Zhou Yu.

Zhuge Jin would only think that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were Liu Zheng's former servants, and Dian Wei was the guard.So I don't think too much about it.

Entering Zhuge Jin's yard, it is quite simple, except for some tables, there are a few trees that are not too tall. It seems that Zhuge Jin should have planted it himself.

There was a gazebo in the small courtyard, and Zhuge Jin invited Liu Zheng and others to sit in the gazebo for a while.He went to make tea himself.

Liu Zheng looked at the environment of this small courtyard casually, although it was simple, he was quick, which was quite in line with Zhuge Jin's image.

In a corner of the small gazebo, there is also a box made of bamboo with some letters on it.

The reason why it is a letter, not a paper book, is because although there is already such a thing as paper at this time, paper is still a valuable item, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get it. Although papermaking has been around a hundred years ago , but it has not improved much after developing for so long.

Of course, the main reason is that the output of paper cannot be raised, and technologies such as printing have not yet appeared.

Liu Zheng looked at the bamboo slips on the wooden box, and roughly had some ideas in his mind.

Books have always been the ladder of human progress. If a person wants to achieve something, he must read more books.

In addition, after Liu Zheng opened the military academy, it was not convenient to always use bamboo slips as books. There are too many books, the Analects of Confucius, Confucius and Mencius. There are more benefits, more words can be accommodated, lighter and easier to carry.

After returning this time, Liu Zheng decided to make a fuss about papermaking and printing.

Anyway, papermaking has already been developed, Liu Zheng only needs to find two craftsmen who can make paper, and it is enough to promote it. As for printing, it is even simpler.

When he was young, there was no printer in the school, and he still used the most basic ink to print the printed test papers.Although Liu Zheng couldn't make ink printing, it was still easy to do woodblock printing and movable type printing.

While Liu Zheng was still thinking about papermaking and printing, Zhuge Jin had already served the brewed tea.

"My lord, drink tea."

Zhuge Jin is quite respectful to Liu Zheng. After all, Liu Zheng is always older than him by more than ten years.

Liu Zheng was not polite, he took a sip from the teacup on the table, and then started chatting with Zhuge Jin about business.

"Little brother Zhuge, have you finished taking care of your father's affairs?"

"Well, my father's matter is almost done."

"Then what are your plans next?"

Liu Zheng asked the question he most wanted to ask.

Zhuge Jin didn't answer Liu Zheng immediately, but began to think about it seriously, as if he was really thinking about his next plan.

After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke to Liu Zheng.

"I haven't made up my mind yet. I should go to various places to study first. After all, I am still young and I want to study for a few more years."

In ancient times, there was no such thing as a school. The only way was to worship under some famous people and learn from them.

And the so-called study tour is to travel to other places to seek teachers and learn from them.

"This is also a good idea. After all, traveling thousands of miles and reading thousands of books, is there a place to go?"

"Well, Luoyang, or Jiaozhou."

"Oh? Why are you going to Jiaozhou?"

Liu Zheng could understand when Zhuge Jin said that he was going to Luoyang, but when Zhuge Jin said that he was going to Jiaozhou, Liu Zheng was taken aback for a moment. A little curious.

"There is a military school in Jiaozhou. I heard that it is recruiting young people. It is the place where Mr. Liu Zheng cultivates talents. I really want to go, but I don't know if I can be selected with my ability. I still want to try it."

Zhuge Jin didn't know yet that the big brother-like figure in front of him was the Lord Liu Zheng he was talking about.

On the other hand, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, who were standing beside Liu Zheng, suddenly secretly smiled when they heard what Zhuge Jin said, and they almost opened their mouths and said something wrong.
