Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]

Spring rain is like crisp, pattering down.The sun in March was shrouded in misty rain.Looking out from the window, the green mountains and dark green water in the distance seem to be covered with a layer of white gauze that seems to exist.And the rainwater slides down the tiles and beats on the bluestone steps like beads, playing a tune that you can never tire of listening to.

Ah Sheng leaned against the dripping window sill, looking at the steam outside.She didn't add a hat today, but wrapped her hair with a green cloth, which looked like an ordinary farmer's hairstyle.

Luo Chi came over and put a robe on her. "It's a bit cold today, the master is weak, so you still have to be careful." She was still the one who talked and laughed, and after helping Ah Sheng put on his clothes, she sat on a low stool next to her and started sewing.

"Xuzhou is said to be rich, but I think it's just a few years of peace and starvation." Luo Chi chattered as he worked the needle, "For example, this Yangdu County is just like the original Daxian County. It will be destroyed. unbreakable."

Ah Sheng didn't speak, just tilted his head and smiled slightly.

"I haven't been back to Dalian for three years, so I'm afraid it looks even better now. Last time Xu Rong wrote to say that the Baishan cherry trees planted by the lord are all in bloom, and it's like a sea of ​​snow under Wubao." Luo Chi raised his head and showed a flattering smile. , "When the lord is done with the mess in Xuzhou, let's go back to Dalian and have a look, okay? The students of the Dalian Secondary School have said that the lord has lost his mind since he built the Xu County Academy."

Ah Sheng, who was recovering from his injuries, was very easy to talk to: "Okay."

"There is also Wulang from Jiaozhou, who also asked the master to recuperate. South Island mining, a new hot spring was dug out. The Lady Flowing Fire likes it very much, and she spends all day in South Island and does not want to leave. She has also reached the age of enlightenment, Goro I want to ask the master to get a charter."

Daughter Kaimeng, do you want to do it as a big event?It would be unbelievable to put this in the Eastern Han Dynasty more than ten years ago.

"Ayu is slowly... becoming politically mature."

"Who says it's not." Luo Chi tied the end of the thread into a knot, then cut it short.A carp was already exposed on the fabric, with streamer-like red scales, although small, it was very expressive. "Although Goro is a little mediocre, he really hasn't made any mistakes."

Ah Sheng's eyeballs moved, and he looked away from the raindrops outside the window: "Did he say something else?"

"Goro said that if the master didn't give a reminder, he would send the Liuhuo brothers and sisters to the primary school of Sainan Island to study with the children of the Li nationality. Goro said that he was a third-year student. At that time, his classmates were still slaves in name "Nowadays, the students are all free citizens, and the courses they study are much more perfect than they were back then. The South Island School has a complete set of teachers, among the top three in the country, so they can't be wronged." Luo Chi imitated Ah Sheng, with a touch of smack in his words Laughing makes people smile.

"What he said makes sense." A Sheng raised his hand, and Luo Chi put down the needle and thread in his hand with satisfaction, and handed her a hot teapot.Ah Sheng held the pot and took a sip of hot water, and then let out a long breath: "Dalian Academy has complaints, and Nandao Academy has dropped from the first place to the top three. Don't you have any complaints?"

"The head of the Nandao Academy is Zheng Gong. The owner of his temper is also aware of it. He looks down on these emotional disputes outside of learning the most. However, Zheng Gong said that next year, or the year after, he will bring students to Xu County exchange learning."

Ah Sheng closed his eyes in a relaxed way: "Nandao Academy has Mr. Zheng, it's really like a magic needle. As long as Cai Yong and Zheng Xuan can live a few more years, I will be able to relax a lot. In contrast, Dalian Academy There is still a lack of an elder who is academically open and upright.”

Luochi put the fabric and needlework into the basket, then stood up solemnly. "It's too late to elect people."

Ah Sheng then opened his eyes and sat up straight. "Speaking."

"People from Qingzhou, Bing Yuan, Wang Lie, and Guan Ning have been giving lectures in Dalian for four years, and their character and reputation are all right. Do you need to select candidates for sacrificial wine?"

Ah Sheng was silent for about three seconds before slowly speaking: "These three are well-known people. Wang Lie persuaded the robbers and Guan Ning cut the seats are allusions between Qingliu, but I don't like Wang Lie acting on favors [Note 1], Guan Ning's tendency to live in seclusion is too serious, and I'm afraid he is not a suitable candidate. Although Bing Yuan and Guan Ning both say that he has a noble character, he has no specific deeds, and I can't rely on him alone. Rumor has it that such an important decision is made."

Luo Chi bowed: "Personnel transfer is the master's right. There is no reason why he will definitely be appointed if he is not recommended."

"The appointment of officials should not be based solely on reputation, nor can I rely solely on my prejudice." Ah Sheng stretched out his hand to help, "I will be investigated."

After the recommendation discussion came to an end, Luo Chi sat down to talk to Ah Sheng again.

"Speaking of Dalian Academy, there is one more thing I don't know whether I should mention it to the master."

Ah Sheng took a sip of water to subdue his shock, and then he let out a long sigh: "You just can't see me at ease."

"If the master doesn't like to hear it, I won't mention it." Luo Chi replied, she was still smiling easily, but she could clearly see the tension.

"Let's talk about it." Ah Sheng turned his head and looked out the window, "It's just a piece of news for me, but for some people, it is a turning point in life's fate."

Luo Chi lowered his head and sewed two stitches before he found the tone of his voice: "An Lang... is 14 years old. He passed the score line in the geological drawing class of Dalian Academy in the first month's unified examination, but...his background... the school gave him Transferred to the literature class... The child refused to accept it and lodged a complaint."

The room was silent.

Compared to Xu County and Juan City, this house in Yangdu looks crude.There is no floor heating or wall heating, so the chill of the rainy season comes up from the ground, lingering around the bones.The sound of the rain became louder, and the bead curtains that had been falling down the eaves turned into silver threads.

"Okay, okay." Ah Sheng wiped the corners of his eyes, "He's a promising kid." She was obviously smiling, but she covered her mouth, her nose turned red.After a while, she put her hand down and sniffled: "Bring the letter paper, I'll give him a note."

Luo Chi's voice seemed to glow: "No." Then he brought up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in a hurry.

The two deliberated over the words for three times before they finished writing a seemingly business-like appeal ruling.The paper with Mr. Zhonghua's watermark was folded twice, sealed in a kraft envelope, stamped with wax, and finally put into a letter box with a metal clasp, and sent out by the guards.

Because of the rain, it was getting dark very quickly.As soon as I arrived at Shenshi, I had to light candles in the house.

Ah Sheng was setting the meal, she got off the couch, sat behind the dining table, and asked Luo Chi, "Ah Chi, do you have anything else to say to me?"

"No……"

"Ah, with such a heavy rain, the poor child might go back hungry and brave the rain."

Luo Chi knelt down: "It's true that nothing can be hidden from the eyes of the master."

The corners of Ah Sheng's mouth curled down, his eyes half-closed: "Have you checked?"

"Yes. Zhuge Liang, a native of Yangdu, was born in the Zhuge family in Langya. Zhuge in Langya is a descendant of Zhugefeng, the captain of Sili in the Western Han Dynasty. Shi's Juncheng, unfortunately died early, leaving behind three sons and two daughters. Zhuge Liang is the second among brothers."

Ah Sheng smiled and raised his chopsticks: "Let's not consider this kind of family background. Children from big families, even if they lose their parents, can live better than ordinary people with the family to take care of them. Take something to eat." Give it to him, let someone send him back."

"Master said so, no matter what, I think that young gentleman is really smart. But 12 years old is not too young." Luo Chi muttered, took a plate of jujube cakes, and a few small cages bag, put it in the food box, and then walked into the rain with an umbrella.

In the yard there is a cluster of banana trees, swaying leisurely under the beating of raindrops.It is hard to imagine that plantains can grow so well in the north of Huaihe River. This is due to the climate of Yangdu, which is close to the river and surrounded by mountains. The mountains block the south wind from the sea, forming rain here and rising smoke waves. No less than Jiangnan.

Luo Chi walked around the huge plantain bushes and came to the simple wooden room of the porter.

The guard guarding the gate was warming up the fire, and there were two sweet potatoes that were roasted until their skins were scorched. This was the first time Zhuge Liang had seen this kind of food, so his eyes drifted towards the fire from time to time.However, this was before Luo Chi came in. Ever since Luo Chi entered the room, his gaze had been fixed on Luo Chi without moving away for a moment.

"Mr. Zhuge, it's noon time. The master asked me to deliver food to Mr. Zhuge."

Young Zhuge didn't pick up the food box, but sat more upright: "I don't choose books, I want to study with Cao Zi as a reward, does she agree?"

The elder brother guard couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "Mr. Xiaolang, this is not a matter of the same level. The master has a big heart, and giving a few books as a gift can be regarded as a casual act, but as a disciple, one has to be responsible."

Zhuge Liang pursed his lips: "Whether Cao Zi can accept me depends on my ability. If I can't do it today, I will come back tomorrow. If I can't do it tomorrow, it will be the day after tomorrow. If the rain stops, I will follow behind the car. Don't you Persuade me."

"Why does Mr. Xiaolang do this?" Luo Chi was a little puzzled, "Every time the master has an exposition, he will organize it into a book and send it to Xu County. If you want to learn Cao Xue, or want to see the grand scene of a hundred schools of thought contending, go to the Xu County Academy Palace and It's done. The school is all-inclusive, and Xiao Lang-jun's family background can afford the travel expenses, so why follow the master?"

"I heard that the Cao family started out by making porcelain, so I compare it with porcelain." Young Zhuge held his head up, "Ordinary dishes, cups and chopsticks are made of molds, and when they are fired in the kiln, they are layered on top of each other. It needs to be stacked as high as one person. Thousands of porcelains fired in this way are all the same. But if you want to make a masterpiece that has been handed down for generations, it must be shaped by the best craftsman and fired individually to ensure Flawless. I am the porcelain embryo that can become a famous product, fired with other people in an inferior school, either I damage it or they damage it, so I am looking for craftsmen who can make me."

"So I'm a craftsman." Ah Sheng's voice suddenly sounded.Standing outside the door with a plain oil-paper umbrella, she didn't know how long she had been listening.

"Owner."

"Cao Zi."

Several people in the room spoke at the same time and bowed to salute.

"Is it any good for me if I bother to accomplish you?"

The young Zhuge Liang stood up. He was so tall that he reached Ah Sheng's shoulders.Although the figure is still thin, such a child can already look like a half-adult. "I can carry forward your theory, and I will never fall into Cao Zi's reputation." Resolutely.

Some people who have left their names in history are really not by luck.Even if the times change, even if he is in adversity, even if he is dragged down by prejudice, he can still stand out.

Note 1: Wang Lie persuaded the robbers.Once upon a time, there was a cattle thief in the village. After he was caught, he said: "I am willing to accept the punishment, but I just hope that Wang Lie will not know that I am a thief." After Wang Lie heard about it, he sent cloth to the cattle thief to persuade him to be kind.Later, the cattle thief really changed his mind and became a good person.This is what Ah Sheng is referring to when he says here that he "acts according to human feelings".
