If someone insists on comparing with Zhuge Liang, then only Sima Yi and Lu Xun will be there.

However, Lu Xun was really not trusted by Sun Quan, which greatly suppressed Lu Xun's talent. However, Lu Xun was the same as Zhuge Liang. Lu Xun was worried about the country and died, while Zhuge Liang devoted his efforts to the death.

Lu Xun's son Lu Kang and his grandchildren were all loyal ministers of the Sun family. Zhuge Liang's descendants, Zhuge Zhan and Zhuge Shang Mianzhu, died in battle.

Only Sima Yi is an old turtle.

Even if Zhuge Liang is not mentioned, Zhuge Jin here is also a talent. However, the reason why Zhuge Jin is a talent is that this person has a very good interpersonal relationship and has a brilliant mind, which can calm the conflicts between political forces in all parties. In some ways, he is also considered a "talent of the prime minister."

The Prime Minister is a person who regulates yin and yang and guards his country.

However, Zhuge Jin finally became the General of the Eastern Wu and became a military officer. Although Zhuge Jin was okay in governing the army, he never won the battle.

In short, since Zhang Xiu knew about this kind of thing today, how could he let it go?

I won’t buy snacks anymore, I’ll eat nonsense snacks. Zhang Xiu said to Dian Wei: “Go back home immediately and send someone to find Taishi Ci.”

"No." Dian Wei Weiming said with a promise. The team immediately turned around and returned to the Grand Sima Mansion.

After Zhang Xiu came to the study, he felt a little uneasy. Until a sound of footsteps sounded, Taishi Ci walked in from outside in a dusty manner.

"Ming Gong." After Taishi Ci entered the study, he bowed to Zhang Xiu, and was so respectful.

Not to mention that he led troops under Zhang Xiu's command, he was like a fish in water. It was because their family was in Luoyang and was rewarded by Zhang Xiu from time to time, which made him grateful.

"Sit." Zhang Xiu first asked Taishi Ci to sit down, and then said, "Ziyi. Your Taishi family is from Donglai, Qingzhou. Can you have a friendship with Zhuge, Langya?"

Although the Taishi Ci family and the Zhuge family belong to Qingzhou and Xuzhou, the two counties are not far apart.

Taishici immediately replied: "Report to Gong Ming, my family has no friendship with the Zhuge family, but I have heard of Zhuge."

Zhang Xiu was a little regretful. At this time, a person from Xuzhou should be sent to pay his respects, but since there was no such thing as Taishi Ci had to take action.

"Ziyi, Zhuge Xuan, a Zhuge clan in Langya, arrived in Luoyang and died yesterday. You go to pay your respects on my behalf."

As he said that, Zhang Xiu carefully gave a few more words of advice.

"promise."

Taishici was surprised, but he responded readily. He was not only a military general, but also had a stable relationship with people and would not make any mistakes.

Not long after, Taishici took a few followers to pay his respects.

Although Zhuge Xuan died, it had nothing to do with Liu Biao himself, so none of Liu Biao's relatives and friends came. In order not to appear too deserted, Liu Biao communicated with several Xuzhou officials and scholars, and these fellow villagers came to pay their respects to Zhuge Xuan.

Most of these fellow villagers do not recognize Zhuge Xuan, but they do their best. After these fellow villagers pay their condolences and condolences to their families, they all left.

I will come back to see you off on the day of leaving Penang.

After Taishi Ci came, he communicated with the concierge and alarmed Liu Biao and Zhuge Jin.

In front of the mourning hall, because Zhuge Xuan had no children, Zhuge Jin and his five brothers and sisters were wearing mourning clothes, and Liu Biao and his two sons were with them.

When Liu Biao heard the servants come to report, he was both shocked and confused. He turned to look at Zhuge Jin and said, "Jin'er. Are there any rituals for communicating with the Grand Sima?"

"I don't know." Zhuge Jin said confusedly. Their family has something to do with the Grand Sima and the General of the Cavalry? If it is related, why didn't my uncle come to join Zhang Xiu but Liu Biao?

Seeing this, Liu Biao knew that he couldn't find out why. Although he was hasty, he calmed down and quickly called Zhuge Jin to the door to welcome Taishi Ci.

After the two saluted Taishi Ci, they invited Taishi Ci in and mourned Zhuge Xuan for a while. Liu Biaocai and Zhuge Jin came to the living room to sit down.

At this time, Liu Biao asked for his doubts and said, "Brother Zhuge, unfortunately, died early on the way. It's a pity. But why did the Grand Sima learn about this? How could he send Ziyi to come and pay condolences?"

Zhuge Jin also looked at Taishi Ci.

Taishi Ci was prepared and replied calmly: "Returning to Liu Beijun (Liu Biao), the Ming Duke was familiar with the Records of the Grand Historian and the Book of Han, and he read the biography of the characters. He knew Mr. Shaoji (Zhuge Feng). Today, he passed by the palace and saw Su Bai of the whole palace, so he sent someone to ask. After learning about this, he sent me to pay his respects."

After talking about the causes and consequences, Taishici bowed to the Grand Sima Mansion and said, "Ming Gong is the most respectful person. Scholars will treat them with hearts whether they are born in a famous family or poor family. When they were in Lueyang County, Ming Gong would give good care of scholars in need. When treating scholars who were unfortunately killed but had no descendants, they would be buried with courtesy. Although it means that the Duke and Zhuge Jun (Zhuge Xuan) had never met, they were also very concerned. They also learned that the Zhuge family had five young children, and they sent me to pay their respects and asked if there were any difficulties. If there were any difficulties, the Ming Gong would do his best to help."

Taishi Ci did not lie a word. When Zhang Xiu was in Lueyang, he not only issued a [Application for Talents], but he was extremely generous to the scholars (except those who violated the law).

I have done a lot of good things and accumulated a great reputation.

Liu Biao and Zhuge Jin were moved when they heard this. Zhuge Jin was young, and Liu Biao bowed his hands and said unwillingly: "The Grand Sima is really a noble person."

Immediately, Liu Biao shied and said, "It's just that although my family is poor, there is no problem raising a virtuous nieces. Please tell the Grand Sima that there is no need to worry about it."

Taishi Ci nodded slightly. At this moment, a servant came in outside the door and said that a guest was coming to pay his respects. Liu Biao turned his head and nodded to Zhuge Jin. Seeing this, Zhuge Jin got up and went out.

Taishi Ci took the opportunity to look at Liu Biao and said, "Liu Beijun, Zhuge Jin was here just now, I didn't say it. But this is what Gong Ming means. Zhuge Jun's funeral will be organized by you. However, the five children of the Zhuge family are raised by Gong Ming."

Liu Biao was shocked and angry, and was still afraid.

Although his reputation was already a huge fame, since Zhuge Xuan had entrusted his nephews and nieces to him before his death, he had to take good care of him.

What's the point of Zhang Xiu's thrust into a slap now?

This was simply unreasonable. But Liu Biao looked up and looked at Taishi Ci's expression. This military general from a poor family in Qingzhou had a straight waist and a majestic sitting posture, with indescribable momentum.

He was afraid of Zhang Xiu, really afraid.

"Okay." Liu Biao's heart was extinguished, and he was left with cowards, and finally said something like this.

"In this way, I will reply to Ming Gong." Taishi Ci nodded, bowed to Liu Biao, and turned around and left.

This matter was decided. In Luoyang City, Zhang Xiu was the one who could do what he wanted.

After Zhuge Xuan's funeral was over, Zhang Xiu personally sent Taishi Ci, led dozens of light cavalrymen, and brought five Zhuge Jin and his brother and sister to the Grand Sima Mansion.

After Zhuge Jin and his brother and sister got off the carriage, Zhuge Jin looked up at the majestic mansion and the plaque "Da Sima Mansion", and shrank and confused. He was only sixteen years old after all, and he was not the General of the Eastern Wu who was good at dancing in history.

As for Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jun and others were much more heartless. Zhuge Liang sucked his nose and looked left and right in curiously.

"Don't worry, Dalang. Duke Ming is a generous and kind-hearted man. He will bring you here to live out of morality and will not make things difficult for you."

Taishi Ci, who was next to him, smiled slightly, brought Zhuge Jin and other brothers and sisters into the Grand Sima Mansion, and came to the study to pay homage to Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu was really a little restless. If it weren't for going out to greet the five little ghosts as he was, it would be too expensive, so he even wanted to go out to greet Zhuge Liang.

This is Zhuge Liang... Compared to Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jin can be considered as a buy one free at most.

But when Taishi Ci brought the five children of the Zhuge family in, Zhang Xiu calmed down again, showed a generous smile on his face, and looked at the five people.

This smile was full of strength, and immediately the tension in Zhuge Jin was eliminated.

He immediately led his younger brothers and sisters to bow to Zhang Xiu and said, "Greetings to Gong Ming."

"No gifts. Sit." Zhang Xiu smiled slightly and asked the five of them to sit down. Then he looked up and said to Taishici: "Ziyi, this matter is hard. You go back. By the way, find Cai Mao for me."

"No." Taishi Ci calmly responded and went to find Cai Mao. Zhang Xiu took the opportunity to look at the five people in the Zhuge family.

The Zhuge family is very handsome. Although Zhuge Liang sucks from time to time, his lips and teeth are red. When he grows up, he will definitely be a handsome man.

The other two girls, Big Zhuge, Little Zhuge, Zhuge Jun and others, all looked good. This made Zhang Xiu very satisfied. As expected, the whole family was both handsome and beautiful.

Zhang Xiu's eyes made Zhuge Jin nervous again. But the four little ones were still heartless.

Zhuge Liang is so naughty now.

It was not until Cai Mao walked in from outside to relieve Zhuge Jin's nervousness. Cai Mao first met Zhang Xiu before he glanced at Zhuge Jin and the other two.

Zhang Xiu introduced Zhuge Jin and the other five to Cai Mao, and then said, "I have never met Zhuge Jun (Zhuge Xuan), but gentlemen have the right to save the enemy. I plan to let them live in my mansion until they grow up. There are still hundreds of servants outside the city. I plan to divide my land outside the city into a thousand acres and a manor to provide these people with settlement. When they grow up, there will be industries to make a living. This matter will be left to Degui, you will do it."

After hearing this, Cai Mao was slightly stunned. He thought about it, is this for "building a good reputation"?

Anyway, with his utilitarianism, he didn't believe that Zhang Xiu would be so kind and righteous, and helped someone who had never met before and was not a fellow villager.

However, since it was Zhang Xiu's order, what he thought was the same in his heart. He responded with ease.
