Bingzhou was clouded because of Jia Xu's incident, but Jingzhou in the distance was sunny. Zhuge Jin wanted Zhuge Liang to stay, but because Zhuge Liang himself did not want to come to Jingzhou, and Zhou Yu's flicker later, Zhuge Jin made up his mind immediately. Went to Bingzhou.

After all, in Zhou Yu's description, Zhuge Liang missed his elder brother very much. He sighed at the moon when he saw the falling flowers and flowing water. Zhuge Jin immediately felt distressed and made up his mind to go to Bingzhou .

Zhuge Xuan did not stop this matter. After all, Zhuge Jin was Zhuge Liang's elder brother, and now he was an adult. It was a legitimate thing for him to go to Bingzhou to take care of his younger brother, and no one could stop him.

Not to mention seeing Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang brothers have a deep relationship, Zhuge Xuan is only happy, so how could he object?

After Zhuge Jin was settled, Zhou Yu proposed to visit Sima Hui the next day. Sima Hui was a celebrity in Jingzhou. A young and talented young man like Zhou Yu naturally wanted to visit Jingzhou when he had the opportunity.

What's more, Xu Shu just came here before, and Zhuge Xuan saw that Xu Shu and Zhou Yu were having a good conversation, so he naturally thought they were friends, so Zhou Yu proposed to meet Sima Hui, Zhuge Xuan immediately set up a bridge for Zhou Yu, so he picked a sunny day, Bingzhou The big two and the young ones who came went out to visit Sima Hui.

Sima Hui has stopped being an official in these years, and lives in seclusion in the mountains. He only studies and teaches his apprentices on weekdays. Naturally, he doesn't want to be disturbed by the mundane world, so the place where Sima Hui lives is actually a bit remote.

At least it takes a while to climb a mountain.

Probably seeing that the task can be completed, Zhou Yu is still in a good mood. In addition, the surrounding scenery is beautiful, and he is knowledgeable about the past and the present.

It's just that after climbing half of the mountain, Zhuge Liang began to pant heavily, and it seemed that he couldn't climb anymore.

In fact, this is quite normal, he is just a child, and he is not like Sun Quan because he has such a bad brother like Sun Ce, who has been tossed and beaten all these years, climbing mountains and so on is much easier than Sun Ce's training Well, Zhuge Liang didn't have this condition. Even if he practiced swordsmanship on weekdays, it was mostly for the sake of literati elegance, and he was naturally incomparable with Sun Quan.

Not to mention the two military generals Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, they are not even out of breath after climbing the mountain, and they are not tired at all.

Only Zhuge Liang himself was as tired as a Tian Ce rushing to the street, but he was stubborn and didn't want to show weakness. He just kept his mouth shut and followed them up the mountain.

Just when Zhuge Liang was really struggling to climb, Sun Quan, who was walking in front, turned around and stretched out his hand to him: "Xiao Liang, you hold me, and I will take you away."

Zhuge Liang turned his face slightly: "I can walk by myself."

Sun Quan thought about it and said, "Well, I know you can walk, but the mountain road is narrow, and I'm afraid I might fall, so let's walk together."

As he spoke, he moved his hand forward a little more.

Zhuge Liang pursed his lips, of course he knew that Sun Quan's excuse was more of a good intention.

So he finally held the hand that Sun Quan extended to him, but he secretly vowed in his heart that he must exercise well after returning to Bingzhou this time. Compared with those who were taught martial arts by Sun Ce, they were much worse.

Sun Quan pulled Zhuge Liang and didn't mention this anymore. He also understood Zhuge Liang's current state of struggling to speak, so he just held his hand and continued to move forward.

But... I just saw Xiao Liang blushing a bit =v=

Sun Ce in front looked back, "Quan'er and Xiao Liang have a good relationship."

After all, they are classmates, and children can play together.

Zhou Yu was even happier: "They have a good relationship, which is a good thing."

Zhou Yu knew something about Zhuge Liang. It is said that Su Yunqing personally asked Jia Xu to name the people who wanted to stay. Although I don’t know what Su Yunqing liked about Zhuge Liang a few years ago, but Zhou Yu knew it. This emphasis, Zhuge Liang will grow up and step into the officialdom in a few years, naturally he will be different from others.

Therefore, the relationship between Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang is also very good.

Because Zhuge Xuan pointed out the way before, they didn't get caught blind after they went up the mountain, and successfully found Sima Hui's residence. After that, it was easy. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce paid a visit to Sima Hui, Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan followed suit, and then forget it.

The adults talk about things, and the children go out to play by themselves.

At this time, the great Confucian Pang Degong happened to be giving lectures to the students, so Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan also went to listen together. The students' answers were quite satisfactory, basically in the expectation of Mr. Pang De. Finally, Mr. Pound asked Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan by name.

Regarding Mr. Pound's questions, Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang answered fluently, and their thinking was clear and well-organized. Although many opinions were a little naive, they were already revealed. This surprised Mr. Pang De. He originally saw the two children as the boy lead by Sima Hui I didn’t mind their lectures, but I never thought that the views of these two children are more exciting than many adults in their 20s present here.

So Duke Pound asked, "What are your two names? Who did you study under?"

When did such a brilliant child appear in Jingzhou, and he didn't even know about it?

Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan respectfully reported their names, and said that they were students of Zheng Xuan. Now Pang Degong suddenly realized.

"It turned out to be Duke Kang Cheng's disciple. No wonder he was so extraordinary at such a young age."

Zheng Xuan's reputation is known all over the world.

But also because of this, Duke Pound knew that these two children were from Bingzhou. According to rumors, although Su Yunqing, the shepherd of Bingzhou, was a woman, she was stronger than most men in the world. For his sharpness, I heard that Su Yunqing welcomed the emperor to Jinyang a few days ago, and was later granted the title of Marquis of Wu'an by the emperor.

What is the meaning of the title of Wu'an? Anyone who has read some books knows that it must be at the level of Bai Qi and Li Mu. The emperor gave Su Yunqing the title of Wu'an.

Of course, without mentioning Su Yunqing, just looking at the two children in front of me, from small to big, we can know that Bingzhou's prosperity is not due to luck.

It’s just that such a comparison shows that Lord Pang De’s disciples are not very good. They are obviously inferior to Zheng Xuan’s disciples. Since ancient times, literati have been regarded lightly. But there was no shortage of thoughts, so he immediately clicked on a child sitting in the corner to answer the question.

This child was sitting in the corner, and his appearance was not impressive, and he was dressed very plainly. He was really ignored from the beginning.

Originally, Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan didn't pay much attention to this child. After all, although they were not too proud and complacent, they still had a little confidence in themselves. Coupled with the background of those disciples of Mr. Pang De before, they felt that there was nothing worth mentioning here except Xu Shu. Those who are paying attention, and Xu Shu is accompanying Sima Hui to receive Zhou Yu and Sun Ce at this time.

But after the child named by Mr. Pound spoke a few words, the expressions of both Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan changed.

What an insight!

The two children looked at each other, and Zhuge Liang asked in a low voice, "How is it? Do you want to take this back?"

Sun Quan listened to the child say a few more words, and finally nodded as if making up his mind: "Take it!"

Go back and talk first!

Because of Zhou Yu's relationship, Sun Quan knew how busy the civil servants in Bingzhou were. Even Zhou Yu, a military general with a bit of IQ, was arrested. Zhao Yun was so frightened that he asked himself to be stationed at the frontier after the battle and would not come. It can be seen how brutal the overtime culture in Bingzhou is.

Especially this kid named Pang Tong is very good. He is a little older than Zhuge Liang, and he belongs to the type that can be used after a few years of fooling around, which is much better than bringing other people.

Besides, I can rest assured that I can use it after raising it for a few years.

However, the two children looked at it and felt that Pang Tong didn't seem very popular?

Not to mention that he is obviously very talented because of his unique insights, but if Mr. Pang De valued him so much, Pang Tong should also be a man of the academy, right?In the end, Pang Tong was sitting in the corner, and no one around him was willing to sit with him. When Pang Tong was talking, even though the answers were very exciting, the expressions on the faces of other people except Mr. Pang De were not the same. thing.

Keeping this in mind, Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang didn't talk much, they just continued to listen to Pang Degong's lecture.

After a class was over and everyone went out for activities, Pang Tong was still sitting there alone. Sun Quan was always cute, so he immediately ran out to talk to a student. Well, he is still a guest from afar, and the students here are not bad people, seeing his innocent appearance like a child, he naturally asked everything.

Not long after, Sun Quan came back to look for Zhuge Liang: "Pang Tong is really not popular, it is said that he is ugly."

Zhuge Liang looked back at Pang Tong who was sitting in the corner and nodded, "You don't look very good."

but……

"Just because of this, it doesn't mean that everyone doesn't like being with him?"

What's the point?

It's not really unreasonable, however.

This era is not a modern society. Modern society advocates not judging people by their appearance, but for this era, judging people by their appearance is normal or even taken for granted. Being an official is also based on appearance. No matter how talented an ugly person is, he cannot be an official. What should I do if I scare the emperor during the interview?

In short, this era not only requires both ability and integrity, but also requires a good face, so it is not a lie to say that there were beauties in ancient times, because ugly people were not allowed to be high officials _(: 3ゝ∠)_, so The average appearance of the officials will naturally go up.

Of course, there are no exceptions, for example, Cao Cao is not very good looking.

But Cao Cao's family is rich and powerful. His father was a captain, and his family was rich in assets.

Pang Tong naturally cannot compare with Cao Cao.

In addition, Pang Tong not only has a bad appearance, but also has a bad temperament. It's fine for him to be taciturn and not good at speaking, but he still looks a little dull, which is even more unlikable.But Pang Tong is good at studying. He can compare with all the students in the academy. This is good. He is not pleasing in appearance, but he is better than everyone else, and he is taciturn. Everyone can like him. Strange.

Sun Quan touched his chin with a serious face: "This kind of person is simply tailor-made for Bingzhou."

Our Bingzhou looks good, it's time for someone to lower the average.

Of course, the most important thing is that Pang Tong can increase the average IQ. Sun Quan thinks that as long as the IQ is high, Bingzhou will not mind a lower appearance.

So the two children rushed to Pang Tong's place, and Pang Tong was not surprised at all when they came: "You have something to do with me."

"how do you know?"

Asked about this, Pang Tong looked at Sun Quan: "I saw you went to talk to those senior brothers outside, and after you came back, you looked at me many times, and at this time you came to me again, maybe you have something to say to me? what?"

We are all smart people, and this kind of thing can't be hidden at all.

Sun Quan didn't care at all that his intentions were exposed, but instead said: "I really went to inquire about you, I was just curious about you, there are so many people just now, only you have the real talent to learn."

Others may not be too bad, but for Sun Quan, being a county magistrate for a lifetime is enough.

This kind of person is incomparable with Pang Tong.

Speaking of this, Pang Tong shook his head: "So what? If I don't have a good appearance, I'm doomed not even to be a county magistrate."

"That's hard to say," said Zhuge Liang, "what a person can achieve is not only related to his own ability, but also related to his environment. No matter how talented he is, if he doesn't have a good environment If you want to display it, it will be of no use at all, I think you have no shortage of talent, so you just need to find a place for yourself to display your talent."

Hearing this, Pang Tong felt that although these two children were smart, they had never experienced suffering in the world, and they were always too naive.

How can things in the world be so simple?

Liu Biao is not only a Jingzhou shepherd, but also a Jingzhou celebrity. Liu Biao also likes to make friends with scholars on weekdays, and treats Sima Hui very politely. Once Sima Hui took Pang Tong with him, but Liu Biao frowned when he saw Pang Tong.

Liu Biao is only good at learning by himself. He is tall and handsome, so he naturally likes good-looking people. After meeting Pang Tong, he doesn't need Pang Tong to talk. He doesn't like Liu Biao just because of his appearance, but Liu Biao is still very personable. Apart from being cold to Pang Tong and unwilling to talk to him, he didn't do anything excessive, and he didn't laugh at Pang Tong's appearance, he just ignored it.

Comparing Liu Biao's enthusiasm for other young talents, his neglect of Pang Tong is even more obvious.

So after returning, Sima Hui let out a long sigh, but he could tell Pang Tong that Liu Jingsheng is not your master, and if you want to become an official in the future, you don't need to go to him.

Also because of this, Pang Tong realized more clearly that no matter how good his talent and learning are, it is useless, and that he is doomed not to be valued if he is not good-looking. , it can be said that Liu Biao is benevolent.

But he can't be blamed for his bad appearance, his appearance is innate, not whatever he wants, if he can, he also wants to be tall and majestic, but there is no choice for this kind of thing.

Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang looked at each other, and they both felt that they had caught the point of fooling Pang Tong. Sun Quan immediately said, "Don't be discouraged because of this. As long as you are willing to look for it, you will always meet someone who doesn't mind your appearance."

Saying this, Sun Quan gave Pang Tong an example: "You know Dian Wei from Bingzhou, right? Dian Wei is not good-looking, but his appearance can be said to be scary."

After speaking, Sun Quan told Pang Tong about Dian Wei.

It is said that once when Dian Wei and Lu Bu were returning home from hunting together, they encountered a crying child on the way. Dian Wei was actually very kind, and immediately prepared to give the child his newly caught big rabbit to coax him. He was happy, the rabbit was picked by Lu Bu. Lu Bu meant that the rabbit was fat and big, and it was not suitable for Cai Yan to raise, so he simply threw it to Dian Wei and asked him to take it home to eat meat. The fat big rabbit happened to be used by Dian Wei to coax the children.

However, as soon as Dian Wei opened his mouth, the child didn't even cry, he was so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe, and hid behind his adult, Dian Wei didn't mind, he just handed the rabbit to the adult and led the horse away up.

Dian Wei really doesn't care, he knows that he is not good-looking, he has already figured out this kind of thing, besides, the lord doesn't mind that he is not good-looking, he still reuses him, and the soldiers in the barracks don't care Care, children don't know if he is a good person, so it's normal to be scared and unwilling to talk to him suddenly.

You see, the little Sun Quan of Sun Ce's family is not afraid of him at all.

So Dianwei's mentality is actually quite good.

Hearing this, Pang Tong touched his face. Although he was not good-looking, he was not so scary.

Speaking of which, the guy named Dian Wei must be a little uglier than him, right?

Distressed.

No, in fact, there is nothing to feel bad about. Pang Tong suddenly realized that although Dian Wei is not good-looking, he is now a general of Bingzhou, and he is highly valued. He has friends and colleagues, which is much better than himself, who is ignored by no one.

only……

"If General Dian's appearance is really like this... Bing Zhou Mu doesn't care at all?"

After all, he is also one of his subordinates, so he must hang around in front of him from time to time, right?Doesn't Su Yunqing feel uncomfortable looking at Dian Wei?

Sun Quan shook his head: "Your Excellency has said it before, what's the use of being good-looking, and in this world, you don't just obey you if you are good-looking. If you say that you are good-looking, she is better than Cao Cao in Yanzhou. I haven't seen her." Cao Cao said that he would give her all the land in Yanzhou and Xuzhou, so it can be seen that appearance is of no use. It is a good thing to look good, and you don’t need to care too much if you don’t look good. Talent is the most important thing in employing people.”

Zhuge Liangliang nodded, and comforted him sincerely: "Even if everyone in the academy doesn't like you, and Liu Biao doesn't value you, don't be discouraged, don't give up, maybe you can find a master like Su Bingzhou in the future."

Hearing this, Pang Tong blurted out: "Is Su Bingzhou still short of men? Even a janitor will do!"

As long as Su Yunqing is willing to use him, he has the confidence to become a high official with his own true ability!

All he lacked was an opportunity.

As long as someone can give him a chance.

Hearing Pang Tong's words, Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan immediately knew that the matter was over. Of course, they couldn't be too happy at this time.

Zhuge Liang pretended to think about it before he said: "I heard that Su Bingzhou's subordinates are short of counselors, and Bingzhou's order to seek talents is issued once a month. If it weren't for my young age, I would have signed up to work in the state shepherd's mansion a long time ago." .”

Hearing this, Pang Tong felt that he had finally found the direction of his struggle!

Bingzhou is simply the paradise of his dreams!

At this time, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce didn't know that the two children had teamed up to trick them into coming over, but they were in a good mood. After a long talk, Xu Shu basically didn't run away.

Zhou Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief. With Xu Shu and Zhuge Jin, Jia Xu must greet him with a smile when he goes back this time, right?

At least you don't have to worry about being beaten to death =v=

Emma, ​​I'm so happy, I can spend the rest of the day in full swing.

As a result, Zhou Yu was happy here, but Mr. Pang De was unhappy. The reason was that Pang Tong himself came to him and said that he was going to Bingzhou, and the child still seemed determined to go to Bingzhou.

Mr. Pang De just wanted to talk about your studies, but he remembered that there are Zheng Xuan and Cai Yong in Bingzhou. Pang Tong's studies will not be delayed.

Well, if this one doesn’t work, let’s try another reason.

Pang Tong is still young now!

But Mr. Pang De just said that Pang Tong was too young to go out alone, let alone a place as far away as Bingzhou, but Pang Tong said that his brother Xu Shu had decided to go to Bingzhou. If Mr. Pang De agreed to him now, then he could just go with Xu Shu Walk.

Lord Pound: "..."

This child has everything figured out, right?

So when Zhou Yu and the others came, there were four of them, but when they left Jingzhou, there were seven of them. In addition to the two adults, Zhuge Jin and Xu Shu, there was also a minor, Pang Tong, forming a considerable team.

Pang Tong actually had a bit of low self-esteem. Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang were all good-looking, and Sun Ce was not bad, let alone Zhou Yu. It seemed that he was the only one who was not good-looking among the crowd.

But after seeing Pang Tong, Zhou Yu did not despise him, and of course he was not overly polite, but his attitude was the same as that of ordinary people, but it was this approach that really moved Pang Tong.

Needless to say, contempt and ridicule, excessive enthusiasm may also be an act of faking. On the contrary, it is Zhou Yu's ordinary attitude that proves that Zhou Yu has no intention of contempt for him, but treats him as an equal.

Zhou Yu under him is like this, so what about Su Yunqing as the lord?

Pang Tong didn't know.

But he is not the age to become an official right now, he can wait a few years in Bingzhou before talking.

After leaving Jingzhou, the group's next goal was to go to Sun Ce's hometown.

But when the group walked halfway, they saw a man blocking the road. After seeing several people, he asked, "Which of you is Sun Ce?"

The menacing appearance with the weapon in hand looks like a vengeance seeker!

Zhou Yu couldn't help looking at Sun Ce: "Do you know him?"

Could it be that when Sun Ce offended someone?

Sun Ce shook his head in a daze: "...I haven't seen it before."
