Time flies, and the holiday is here in a blink of an eye.
That morning, the weather was gloomy and rarely bright. In this season, Changsha has more than 20 days a month that are either cloudy or rainy. You can count the number of times the sun appears on your fingers. I was a northerner in my previous life.
Liu Jing really doesn’t like Changsha’s humid and rainy climate.
As soon as the meal time passed, Liu Jing estimated that Zhuge Liang and his family should have finished breakfast before going out.
Duting is located in the south of Guozhou, Linxiang, only a few hundred steps away from the county government.
The Duting Pavilion is no different from the rural pavilions outside the city. It is an important place for important events in the city. The Duting Pavilion in Luoyang can even involve the national level and affect the rise and fall of the country.
For example, General Dou Wu, a relative of the general, teamed up with party leader Chen Fan and others to plan to kill the eunuchs and led thousands of soldiers from the five northern army camps to camp in Duting, Luoyang. However, the eunuchs cleverly borrowed foreign soldiers to counterattack and kill them in Duting.
This led to the far-reaching second disaster of party confinement.
The first disaster of party imprisonment occurred during the period of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty. At that time, Emperor Huan Liu Zhi was in his prime and firmly held the supreme power. The eunuchs were just swords in his hands. Therefore, the party prison was within a controllable range from beginning to end.
No harm was done to the country.
The second disaster of party imprisonment occurred in the early days of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. At that time, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty Liu Hong was still an ignorant boy of eleven years old. He had no power in his hands and was controlled by the eunuchs like a doll. The eunuchs held the emperor hostage.
With the Tianxian in their mouth, the second party campaign led by them wielded the butcher's knife against the scholars, shaking the country at once.
The decline of the Han Dynasty and the second disaster of party imprisonment were definitely one of the main reasons.
Linxiang Duting is not as large as Luoyang Duting, but it can accommodate hundreds or even thousands of people. It is surrounded by tall walls and hundreds of houses, making it a city within a city.
Liu Jing arrived at Duting and found Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun waiting at the entrance of Duting. He immediately quickened his pace, approached and asked, "Kong Ming, how long have you been waiting here?"
Zhuge Liang smiled and replied: "I didn't wait long."
Liu Jing smiled. Zhuge Liang was afraid that there were many untruths in what he said, so he asked again: "Kong Ming, has uncle Ling's health improved again?"
Zhuge Liang replied: "I can walk freely now, but my body is still a little weak and can't stand the wind. I still need to rest in peace in the room for a while."
Liu Jing remembered that Zhuge Xuan died of illness within a few years of going to Xiangyang, so he reminded Zhuge Liang specifically: "Kong Ming, don't leave for Xiangyang in a hurry. You must let your uncle take good care of his health, otherwise if there are hidden dangers in his body, he will
It’s too late to regret.”
Seeing that Liu Jing's expression was extremely solemn, Zhuge Liang gradually realized the seriousness of the matter. If he had any idea, he said: "My uncle really wants to set off as soon as possible. Zhongda's reminder is very urgent. It seems that I need more persuasion."
Uncle."
Seeing that this matter had attracted Zhuge Liang's attention, Liu Jing stopped talking. While following Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun brothers walking in the capital pavilion, he asked: "By the way, Kong Ming, how is your drinking capacity?"
"It's not bad." Zhuge Liang replied very modestly. In fact, he grew up in Qilu. He is not old and has a lot of alcohol. However, although he likes drinking, he is not an alcoholic. The reason is that he has strong self-control.
People who don't like the feeling of losing their mind after being drunk. They believe that drinking should be done in moderation so that you can have fun but not be reckless.
"It's rare to take a break today. I'm hosting a banquet at Shinan Winery. If Kong Ming has nothing else to do, please come with me."
"No." Nothing happened, so Zhuge Liang happily agreed.
Zhuge Xuan is a famous Langya scholar and a two-thousand-stone official. Zhang Xian, the prefect of Changsha, came to visit him more than once and expressed his deep concern. He was both tall and not blind, so he naturally knew how to read people's dishes. Now Zhuge's family lives in a two-story attic.
, a single-family house, quite peaceful.
Zhuge Xuan was ill and could not enter the hall, so the meeting place between the two parties was changed to the bedroom on the second floor.
When Liu Jing arrived, in addition to Zhuge Xuan, there were also two tall, slender, and beautiful girls sitting in the room. They were in their twenties and twenties. They were wearing well-made and brightly colored wide-sleeved undergarments.
The hair is hung loosely and pulled to one side, with exquisite and eye-catching jade ornaments inserted on it. This is one of the most favorite hairstyles for women in the Han Dynasty, which is called a pony bun.
These two girls are presumably Zhuge Liang's eldest and second sisters who have not yet left the palace. Zhuge Xuan's heirs are probably still young, so they did not show up.
Zhuge Xuannian was about thirty years old and was born in the land of Qilu. He had a tall body and a sickly face, which could not hide his outstanding appearance. He had neat beard and thick beard. This kind of tall and handsome man with beard
The exquisite image of a man is most in line with the aesthetics of the Han Dynasty people.
"Liu Jing, I would like to pay my respects to Mr. Zhuge." As a friend of Zhuge Liang, Liu Jing paid homage to Zhuge Xuan as his nephew and at the same time handed him his famous assassination.
As a junior, Liu Jing needs to add the word "disciple" in front of his name to show respect. The specific format is: "Disciple Liu Jing pays his respects again and asks about his daily life. The word "Zhongda" is used in Linxiang, Changsha."
"You're welcome, Mr. Liu, please get up quickly." Zhuge Xuan smiled and took the famous assassin and said: "Sheng Liu is an unparalleled virtuous man. He is famous in Changsha. Even though he is seriously ill and can't leave the house, he often hears visitors around him, including his sons and nephews.
, and even everyone in the pavilion talked about it."
"Mr. Zhuge's praise is too high and I don't dare to live up to it." Liu Jing stood up leisurely, sat side by side on the same couch as Zhuge Liang, and said, "If you don't give up, Mr. Zhuge can be called 'Zhongda' below."
Liu Jing's every move was in line with etiquette, but he also had a sense of coolness and calmness. Zhuge Xuan couldn't help but admire in his heart: "I didn't expect that Changsha Yijun could raise such an extraordinary person. It's really incredible."
Don’t be surprised!”
Zhuge Liang's eldest sister and second sister also have beautiful eyes and ups and downs in their moods. They have already reached the marriageable age. It is only the long time away from home and wandering that delayed the marriage. If there is a chance to marry a gentleman with both political integrity and talent like Liu Jing,
, would be the most beautiful thing. It is a pity that they cannot make the decision on their own in matters of marriage.
Zhuge Xuandao: "I heard from Kong Ming that Zhongda once traveled to Xiangyang to study and became a disciple of Zhongzi of the Song Dynasty."
Liu Jing nodded slightly and said, "I was indeed fortunate enough to study the Book of Changes with Song Gong. I returned home a few months ago due to the death of my brother. Now that I think about it, I often regret that I didn't study hard at that time and wasted my time."
Zhuge Xuan laughed and said: "Zhongda is too humble."
Liu Jingheiran, this was what he said from the bottom of his heart, but unfortunately no one believed it.
Zhu Ge
If you use the fields to fish, you will have good harvests every year; the people will be happy, the powerful will be happy, and you will be able to return home from all directions. This is the only land of peace and happiness in the world.
Zhongda, I have lived in Xiangyang for two years. According to your opinion, are these rumors true or false?"
While recalling all the events in Xiangyang, Liu Jing combined with the evaluation of later generations, and said eloquently: "Liu Shijun is a graceful gentleman, well-known throughout the world. Since he rode into Jingzhou alone, he quickly wiped out clan thieves, bandits and other internal troubles, making the Han River
With Xiping in the south, Sun Jian was eliminated, Yuan Shu was chased away, and foreign troubles were successfully solved. Later, talents were recruited. Thousands of scholars from Guanzhong, Yan, and Henan returned. Liu Shijun comforted and provided relief, and all of them were fully funded..."
After a long discussion, Liu Jing finally concluded: "Liu Shijun has no talent as a king, and he is not the master of chaos. This is the misfortune of the Han Dynasty, but it is also the great fortune of Jingzhou."
