[Three Kingdoms] Jingyunshang

Chapter 174 Zhang Zhu's Contradictions

After dealing with the refugee consultations, Li Jing returned to the mansion. After resting for two days, she wanted to go to Fancheng to visit Zhao Yun, but she didn't want to be interrupted by the people who came to visit her. Some people from Xinye came to see a doctor one after another. Li Jing had no choice but to see the people who needed medical treatment first. The matter of going to Fancheng had to be postponed.

After half a month of continuous consultations, the number of people who came to see the doctor gradually decreased. Li Jing looked at the people who were satisfied and left, and took a deep breath.

One day in late January, just as Li Jing was about to pack up their luggage and go to Fancheng together with Lu Zhi and Zi Ling, they didn't want Zhang Fei to bring Xia Houjuan and the young Zhang Bao to the mansion.

"Yo! Miss Li, Miss Lu, Miss Ziling, where are you going?" Xia Houjuan asked first.

"Yeah, seeing that your luggage is ready, it seems that Zhang Fei and my wife came at a bad time?" Zhang Fei teased Li Jing.

Li Jing hurriedly put down her luggage, went up to Zhang Fei and Xia Houjuan and said, "Brother Fei, Mrs. Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Since you all come to Jing's place as guests, how can Jing not entertain you? Forget it, sister Zhi, Zi Ling Sister, let's go to Fancheng another day!"

"Ganqing wants to go to Zilong's place, no wonder? It seems that Zhang Fei came here at a bad time!" Zhang Fei laughed at himself.

"No way! Brother Fei, stop joking. Come on, Brother Fei, Mrs. Sister-in-law, this way please!" Li Jing made a gesture of invitation, and asked Zhang Fei and Xia Houjuan to sit down.Then he told Lu Zhi and Zi Ling: "Sister Zhi, Sister Zi Ling, go and serve the brewed wine and marinated chicken and duck to Big Brother Fei and Madam Sister-in-law."

"Okay!" Lu Zhi and Zi Ling walked towards the backyard of the mansion.

After a while, Lu Zhi and Ziling held the wine jar and meat jar and placed them in front of Zhang Fei and Xia Houjuan. Zhang Fei couldn't hold back his nerves when facing the fragrant wine jar and meat jar. Drooling, I couldn't wait to open the wine jar and pour it into the bowl, took a sip, and shouted: "Girl Jing, the wine brewed by you is delicious, unlike my mother-in-law. Although it is also brewed according to your method, it tastes better. Always worse."

Li Jing and Lu Zhi Ziling looked at Zhang Fei's drinking, and the three burst out laughing. Li Jing smiled slightly and said, "Sister-in-law, please put less seasoning, otherwise there won't be a gap."

"I think so. After I go back, I'll add more ingredients." Xia Houjuan held the young Zhang Bao in his arms, and his tone was flat and gentle.

Looking at Zhang Bao in Xia Houjuan's arms, Li Jing said to Ziling: "Sister Ziling, go and get the candied haws stored at home and give it to the child. The child cannot drink alcohol or eat meat."

"Ok!"

Then, Zi Ling handed a bunch of candied haws to Zhang Bao, Zhang Bao happily took the candied haws, and ate them alone.After Zhang Fei drank a few cups of wine, he said to Li Jing while eating meat: "Girl Jing, you don't know, a new military adviser just came to my elder brother, what is his name Zhuge Liang, this person looks like a scholar, put on airs But it’s very big, and I asked three of my brothers to visit his thatched cottage three times in person, and when I went there for the third time, Zhuge Liang was actually sleeping, if I, Zhang Fei, said that I would burn it He must have been unwilling to come out to help my eldest brother in his thatched hut, and thinking about it now, it’s really embarrassing.”

What?Zhuge Liang?Hearing this news from Zhang Fei, Li Jing was taken aback. She vaguely remembered that Zilong once invited him to assist Liu Bei.

"Girl Jing, why are you in a daze? Did you hear what I, Zhang Fei, said?" Zhang Fei called Li Jing again.

Li Jing, who was in a daze, came back to her senses, and said apologetically to Zhang Fei: "Brother Fei, I heard what you said just now, may I ask if Zhuge Liang is wearing a lun scarf, a crane cloak, and a goose feather fan in his hand?"

"Hey, girl Jing, do you know Zhuge Liang?" Zhang Fei opened his mouth wide in shock.

"Brother Fei, yes, because of an accident, I have met him several times, so I know."

"So that's the case, but that Zhuge Liang likes to put on airs too much. My elder brother is a member of the Han Dynasty, and his status is so noble. How can Zhuge Liang have the ability to let my elder brother condescend to visit Zhuge Liang who was invited three times to come out of the mountain? Zhuge Liang has no strength to restrain a chicken, he can only talk, and he has been in Xinye for a few days, and I have not seen him come up with anything." Zhang Fei said while eating meat, his words were full of indignation.

"Brother Fei, maybe Zhuge Liang has extraordinary talents? It's just that the time has not come yet, and he hasn't shown it yet. Don't judge people by their appearance!" Li Jing persuaded Zhang Fei.

"What kind of talent do you have? I think he's just putting on airs and talking about nothing." Zhang Fei looked disdainful.

"Brother Fei, Jing is very strange, then Junshi Xu is also dressed similarly to Zhuge Liang, why don't you hate him?" Li Jing asked with great interest.

"Mr. Xu is capable of writing and martial arts, and his writing is capable of strategizing. The two previous defeats of Cao Jun are credited to Mr. Xu. He can lift the sword in martial arts and once avenged his friends, so my old Zhang admires him, unlike that Zhuge Liang who knows nothing!"

Li Jing thought, "Mr. Kong Ming already has this image in Zhang Fei's mind. No matter how much I speak well for Mr. Kong Ming, with Zhang Fei's personality, not only is it useless, but I'm afraid it will make him angry. Forget it, just Just let him go. When Mr. Kong Ming proves his ability in the future, Zhang Fei will naturally be convinced.

"Brother Fei, let's not talk about Zhuge Liang. If you haven't eaten enough, Jing still has some left over here. Brother Fei, take a few pots!" Li Jing changed the subject.

"This...how is this so embarrassing? I, Zhang Fei, is already eating and drinking here with you, so forget it, don't take it!" Zhang Fei blushed.

"Sister Zhi, sister Ziling, go and get two jars of good wine and meat for Big Brother Fei to take back."

"it is good!"

Lu Zhi and Zi Ling took out two jars of wine and meat and handed them to Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei looked embarrassed and his face turned redder. Get up and say to Li Jing: "So, I, Lao Zhang, thank you very much. Let's go, mother-in-law, Bao'er, let's go back!"

"Brother Fei, Mrs. Sister-in-law, go slowly!"

Just as Zhang Fei staggered out of the gate of the mansion, he happened to bump into Zhuge Liang who was visiting Li Jing. Zhang Fei saw Zhuge Liang, drunkenly stepped forward and asked, "Zhuge Liang, what are you doing here?"

"Doctor Li, I met Liang by chance, and we are also friends. Liang found out that Doctor Li lives here. I came to see my friend. General Zhang, what's wrong?" Zhuge Liang said plainly, shaking his goose feather fan.

"Hmph!" Zhang Fei ignored Zhuge Liang and left the mansion with the help of two servants behind him without looking back. Li Jing who was on the side saw that Zhang Fei had finally left, and heaved a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang would clash. If that's the case, it's really hard for me to deal with it.

"Mr. Kong Ming, this way please!"

Zhuge Liang looked around the mansion and saw the pear blossoms that had not yet bloomed and the plum blossoms that were about to wither at the entrance. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion. He shook his goose feather fan and said to Li Jing: "Miss Li, I haven't seen you for a year. Did Liang ever miss you?" Moved here, although the place is not very luxurious and grand, but the pear and plum blossoms in the courtyard do have a special flavor."

"Mr. Kong Ming is too famous. In fact, this mansion belongs to Zilong, but because Cao Jun was about to attack Xinye, Zilong asked my three sisters to move here temporarily. The pear and plum blossoms were also planted by Zilong. "

"I didn't expect General Zilong to be such an elegant person. The pear blossoms are as white as snow, and the plum blossoms are in full bloom. It seems that General Zilong wants to be a person like pear blossoms and plum blossoms!" Zhuge Liang smiled lightly.

"This is Zilong's favorite, and it's also Jing's favorite, so Mr. Kong Ming made fun of it!"

"How dare! How dare! There is no reason to make fun of the person Liang admires most like pear blossoms and plum blossoms!" Zhuge Liang stroked his long beard.

"Sister Zhi, go get another jar of good wine and meat!"

"Okay, sister Jing!" Lu Zhi turned and left.

Soon, Lu Zhi put a jar of good wine and meat in front of Zhuge Liang's table, smelling the fragrance, Zhuge Liang praised again and again: "Miss Li, I didn't expect your craftsmanship to become more and more mature. This wine and The meat is getting more and more delicious!"

"Sir, it's absurd! Come on, let's respect Mr. Kong Ming!" Li Jing picked up the glass and drank it down in one gulp.

"Do it!" Zhuge Liang also drank it all in one gulp.

"By the way, Mr. Kong Ming, why are you free to visit Wangjing today?"

"It's like this. Not long ago, Uncle Liu visited my thatched hut three times. I was flattered. I was a loafer in the mountains. I didn't want to be involved in the disputes of this troubled world. But Uncle Huang's sincerity forced me to come out to help, so some time ago I came to Xinye with my uncle, and was honored as a military advisor by my lord, just in time I found out that Miss Li lived in General Zhao's mansion, so I came here to visit my old friend when I have nothing to do today!"

"So that's the case, by the way, military advisor, where's your Madam?" Li Jing called Zhuge Liang instead.

"Yue Ying, I see that Cao Cao has already conquered the north, and I fear that he will use troops against Jingzhou soon, so let her go to Sanjiang to live in seclusion for the time being." A trace of worry flashed in Zhuge Liang's eyes.

"Then, when will Cao Jun come? He was killed by Junshi Xu last time. Will he come again?" Hearing what Zhuge Liang said just now, Li Jing was a little worried about the safety of Zhao Yun who was far away in Fancheng, so she asked Zhuge Liang.

"It's hard to say, but Cao Cao wants to rule the world, so he will definitely march south to Jingzhou." Zhuge Liang's face was a little serious.

When Lu Zhi heard the two talking about such a serious topic, she changed the subject and said, "Sister Jing, military advisor, don't talk about such a serious topic. By the way, military advisor, are you here just to visit today?"

"Hahaha... Miss Lu's words are very true. Let's not discuss such a serious topic for now. By the way, Liang was entrusted by the clumsy today. She had a drink and a meal in Miss Li's thatched cottage last time. Ms. Li's wine and marinated chicken and duck, Miss Li also briefly told me about it at the time, but after I went back, I found that the taste of the brewed wine and the marinated chicken and duck always felt a little different. What did you do! That's why Liang came here today to ask Miss Li for advice!" Zhuge Liang smiled.

"I'm afraid that the added seasoning is a little less, or it hasn't reached a certain level of heat." Li Jing explained.

"So that's it, Liang, thank you Miss Li!" Zhuge Liang raised his wine glass again to pay tribute to Li Jing.

"By the way, military advisor, Jing has a question, I don't know if I should ask it or not?" Li Jing asked suddenly.

"What's the problem, Miss Li, but it's okay to talk about it!"

"It seems that General Zhang has some opinions on the military division. Is there any festival between the military division and General Zhang?"

Hearing this question from Li Jing, Zhuge Liang slowly put down the wine glass in his hand, and let out a long sigh: "Miss Li, maybe when the lord came to invite Liang in person, some of Liang's behaviors were a bit arrogant and arrogant in the eyes of General Guan and General Zhang. You know that aloofness and arrogance are a common problem among scholars, and Liang is also unavoidable. Recently, Liang and the lord slept in the same bed, and ate with the same table. The two generals are also the lord's sworn brothers. Recently, the lord has alienated them. May be dissatisfied!"

When Li Jing heard that Zhuge Liang said that she and Liu Bei slept in the same bed, she suddenly wanted to laugh, but she still tried her best to restrain her expression, and said with a long breath: "So that's the case, I thought there was some reason Woolen cloth?"

"Okay, Liang has got the answer now. After drinking the wine and eating the meat, I will leave first." Zhuge Liang stood up and saluted Li Jing and others.

"Military division, go slowly!"

"Take care! There will be a period later!"

"There will be a period later!"

Li Jing, Lu Zhi and Ziling sent Zhuge Liang away from the door before returning to the hall of the mansion. Suddenly, thinking of Zhuge Liang's sentence of sleeping at the same table, Li Jing, who had been holding back for a long time, couldn't help laughing.

"Sister Jing, what's wrong?" Lu Zhiziling asked.

"Didn't you hear the military adviser say that he slept with Uncle Liu Huang?"

"I heard that, what's the matter?" Lu Zhi asked in surprise.

"It's always weird for two big men to sleep together!" Li Jing continued laughing.

"What's the matter, Sister Jing, you're making such a fuss, General Guan, General Zhang, and Brother Zhao all slept with Uncle Liu Huang!" Lu Zhi looked down on Li Jing.

"Ah! Zilong also slept with the emperor's uncle?" Li Jing's eyes widened.

"It's not surprising at all. It's not unusual for good friends to sleep in the same bed. Emperor Guangwu of this dynasty slept with Yan Guang, so it's no big deal." Lu Zhi's tone was very flat.

"Okay!" After listening to Lu Zhi's words, Li Jing could only feel relieved, but there was still a trace of doubt in her heart, and she thought to herself: I'll ask Zilong when I go to Fancheng.
