The Three Kingdoms of Navigation

Chapter 92 Heaven

Sun Shao was very surprised when he saw Zhuge Liang's home. These days in Chengdu, although he knows that Liu Bei is not obedient to Zhuge Liang like the legend, Zhuge Liang is a military general after all, and he is in charge of the matter of General Zuo's mansion. How can he live so simple? The small courtyard in front of me is much more shabby than my yard in Wu County.

"The general lives here?" Sun Shao pointed to the courtyard door and looked a little strange.

Zhuge Liang smiled calmly and raised his hand to signal: "I'm really ashamed that the Liang family can't be compared with the captain. Please forgive me."

Sun Shao smiled bitterly and followed Zhuge Liang into the door. Of course, it is too exaggerated to say that the four walls of the family are apprentices, but it is not too simple. Although the yard is not small, it is empty. Except for an old servant who is slowly cleaning the fallen leaves in the yard, no other servants can be seen. When Sun Shao passed by the old servant, the old servant did not respond at all and swept himself, as if he had not seen Sun Shao at all, let alone expect him to catch up to bring tea and water.

When he got to the hall and sat down, a young man hurried over. As soon as he saw Sun Shao, he bowed deeply and said apologetically, "I don't know if there are guests coming, and there is a long way to welcome you. It's a death."

"This is my third brother Zhuge Jun, cursive Ziping." Zhuge Liang smiled with an easy-going smile.

Sun Shao hurriedly saw the salute, but Zhuge did not dare to be careless and hurriedly returned the salute. Although Sun Shao is young, Zhuge Jun knows that Zhuge Liang usually never takes people home. Sun Shao is unique and can't be neglected.

"Brother, you sit with Captain Sun. I'll get ready?" Zhuge Jun looked at Zhuge Liang and asked him with his eyes if he wanted to prepare lunch. If he wanted to keep guests, the wine and vegetables at home were not high-grade, and he had to rush to the city to buy them.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it. What hasn't Captain Sun seen? Go and tell your sister-in-law to pick some fresh vegetables in the backyard, and you can go to the city to make two buckets of wine and cut some beef. He turned his face and smiled at Sun Shao and said, "Captain Sun, there is really nothing good to entertain at home. I can only mean it."

Sun Shao has been looking at Zhuge Liang. He feels that Zhuge Liang seems to have passed a little. With his salary, can the family only live such a frugal life? If the self-respecting person is either a hypocrite or really willing to be insipid, but if Zhuge Liang is really willing to be insipid, why should he follow Liu Bei in this muddy water? But if you say he is a hypocrite, you don't seem to see this tendency. What he does is very natural.

"General, you're welcome." Sun Shao waved his hand lightly, not polite at all. Zhuge Liang did not explain. He asked Sun Shao to sit down. Zhuge Liang sent tea and went out to buy meat.

"General, I heard that there is a Zhuge Dan under Cao Wei, and he is the same family as you?"

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment and looked at Sun Shao in a doze: "Is the public holiday under Cao Yan's hands?"

Sun Shao was also stunned. He only knew that in the Three Kingdoms, there was a dragon, a tiger and a dog in the Zhuge family. The dragon was sitting in front of him, and the tiger was in Jiangdong. Isn't that dog Zhuge Dan? That's why I asked casually, why didn't Zhuge Liang know?

"Oh." Zhuge Liang smiled and quickly explained, "The public holiday is indeed the same as me. He is one year younger than me. He is my younger brother, but he has failed for more than ten years, and I have never known his whereabouts. Where did you hear about the captain? Is he all right now?

I don't know the black line on Sun Shao's forehead. He smiled and said, "I also heard about it. I'm not very clear about the specific situation. I'm really sorry."

"Hehehe, it doesn't matter. Since I know that he is under Cao Wei, I'll send someone to inquire about it later." Zhuge Liang didn't mind. He picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Sun Shao. "Captain, I'd like to invite the lieutenant to the cold house today. To be honest, I have some intentions."

Sun Shao smiled and said, "Do you want to ask about the new wine?"

"Exactly." Zhuge Liang also smiled, "I'm very curious about how the captain made this wine. I hope the captain can give me some advice."

Sun Shao looked at him and took two sips of tea. His face was full of smile, but he didn't say anything. After a long time, he said, "The general invited him so kindly. As a matter of principle, I should tell him frankly. However, hey hey hey, general, this is my way to make a living. You can't cut off my way of life, can you?"

Zhuge Liang was a little embarrassed. He originally thought that Sun Shao was invited to the house and asked for advice so sincerely. Sun Shao had to say a few words more or less. Even if the implications were vague, he could understand, but he didn't expect that Sun Shao was so faceless and refused him directly and refused to reveal a word. For a moment, it was difficult for him to say anything, and on the other hand, he had to apologize and say, "Well, it's a presumptuous."

Sun Shao was thick-skinned, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all. He drank tea with peace of mind. After thinking about it, he said, "I can't say that this is not only my way to make a living, but also my aunt's way to survive. General Zuo married a new man and forgot the old man. He neither gave my aunt a letter to let her remarry, nor gave her any living expenses. My aunt could only point to this winery to live. If I told you, wouldn't I watch her starve to death? How can you bear it?

Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly, but his heart was full of fire. If it hadn't been for his face, he would have kicked Sun Shao out. Will Sun Shangxiang starve to death? She hasn't sold the wine to Chengdu now. Sun Shao explained that he accused Liu Bei of not doing things authentically and married Mrs. Wu without giving Sun Shangxiang an explanation. In the final analysis, this was the family affairs of the Sun family and the Liu family, and he was not very good for commenting. However, Sun Shao actually took this as a reason, and he was still so angry, which really made him very unhappy.

"The captain's words are heavy."

"Hahaha... Of course, this is just a joke. I don't think the general will believe it." Sun Shao laughed, as if the prank had won, and he was very happy: "But I have a word that is not a joke at all. I think the general will definitely forgive me. As the saying goes, the sky can't be leaked, otherwise there will be a disaster. General, can you believe it?

Zhuge Liang's heart moved, and his anger just now disappeared. Sun Shao's words confirmed his conjecture more and more. There were secrets in the winery. He picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and nodded with the same feeling: "I can understand what the captain said. In this case, then Liang dares not ask."

Sun Shao picked up the corners of his mouth, looked at Zhuge Liang proudly, and then said, "However, with the invitation of the general, I really want to talk to the general about things other than this new wine, such as... this way."

"Tao?" Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed: "What is it?"

"The Way of Heaven."

"The Way of Heaven?" Zhuge Liang glanced at Sun Shao and didn't think so. Although he is not very clear about Sun Shao's situation, it does not mean that he knows nothing about it. Sun Shao is a martial artist with good martial arts, but his knowledge is average. When he talks about spring and autumn with Guan Yu, he can only say the first two volumes, and there is no knowledge behind him. That is, Guan Yu's half-baked man likes him. Isn't it boring for him to dare to come and talk to himself today and be so serious? He was disdainful, but there was no strangeness on his face. He bowed over and said, "Listen to the captain's opinion."

"Hahaha..." Sun Shao smiled heartlessly again: "General, Confucianism, Taoism and Mo soldiers, I don't know which one the generals like?"

Zhuge Liang pondered: "Of course, it is the Confucianism handed down by the saints."

"The words are not right, the words are not right." Sun Shao pointed to Zhuge Liang in a big way, as if the old man pointed out the young generation, "The general is not sincere."

"Why did the captain say this?" Zhuge Liang asked with a smile.

Sun Shao fiddled with the teacup in his hand and said slowly, "Shao is not talented. When he heard that the general lived in seclusion, he claimed to be wind music. Is there such a thing?"

"Yes." Zhuge Liang thought for a little and nodded in response. Just now, it was because Sun Shao said so that he invited Sun Shao to come to the house to talk about it. Although he felt that Sun Shao was a little strange to know about this matter, it was not surprising that his brother was in Jiangdong and Sun Shao occasionally heard about it.

"The general is skillful and good at machine skills. Is there such a thing?" Sun Shao asked again.

Zhuge Liang frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and nodded again: "Yes."

"The general entered Yizhou, took charge of the affairs of the left general's mansion, and ruled the rule of Shu with Shang and Han, which is also obvious to all, right?"

Zhuge Liang's mouth was slightly crooked, and he nodded with a smile.

"So... what's the general's rule?"

Zhuge Liang smiled disapprovingly: "Liang's reading is only for general, not following the rules, and not specializing in the scriptures."

"That means there is no cure." Sun Shao patted his thigh: "Gun Zhong, miscellaneous family, Le Yi, soldier's family, Shang Han, French family, the art of organs, Mo family, generals are all over these families, but they can't be cured. How can you say that you like the way of saints? The general couldn't help but say, do you want to slander me?
