Unlike the Lu family, the fact that the Zhuge family could be summoned by Chu Yi obviously meant that there must be someone outstanding among the Zhuge family who was valued by the King of Chu.
Just like our Lu family had Lu Ji and Lu Xun, so they were granted immortality by Chu Yi. From then on, our Lu family was obviously one step ahead of the Lu family.
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, and from now on, their Lu family will be the family with immortals. Naturally, they will have to interact with the family of immortals. The other families of immortals, they, the Lu family, will not be able to reach for a while, but Zhuge is in front of them.
But he is right in front of his eyes.
Lu Kang took a step forward and faced Zhuge Gui. The two brothers Zhuge Xuan said, "Lu Kang has met these two dear brothers!"
Just looking at the unbearable joy on the faces of Lu Kang and the Lu family, Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan could guess that the other party most likely got the immortality spot from Chu Yi, and they were naturally quite envious.
Even though there was a vague guess in their hearts that their family might have a place for immortality, but it was not confirmed at the moment, so when facing the Lu family who had already obtained a place for immortality, brothers Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan still couldn't help but look envious.
.
"Congratulations to Brother Lu and his family for being favored by the King of Chu, and happy to live forever!"
Lu Kang was overjoyed. He stroked his beard and said with a smile full of unconcealable joy: "Same joy, same joy, I, the Lu family, just got the upper hand. When you meet His Highness the King of Chu, you will also get Chu."
The king valued it and granted him immortality."
Although he was somewhat confident that his family would obtain the immortality spot, after listening to Lu Kang's words, Zhuge Gui still rushed to Lu Kang, cupped his hands and said, "I hope it will be as you said."
As he spoke, Zhuge Gui rushed to Lu Kang and others, cupped his hands and said, "We will go to see His Highness the King of Chu right now. We will talk to you later."
Lu Kang nodded slightly and said, "I will be waiting for you all outside the palace."
Under the guidance of the attendants, Zhuge Gui, Zhuge Xuan, Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jun and several representatives of the Zhuge family walked into the hall.
Chu Yi raised his head and looked at the few people. His eyes first glanced at the two brothers Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan, and then his eyes fell on Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Jun.
Although the two Zhuge Gui brothers are not bad in talent and learning, they are inferior to the three Zhuge Liang brothers. In the future, the Zhuge Liang brothers served as officials in the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu respectively. The three brothers were even nicknamed Yilong.
One tiger and one dog.
In particular, Zhuge Liang was the most important, assisting Liu Bei in establishing the foundation of the Shu Han Dynasty. As the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, he dedicated himself to death and became famous throughout the ages.
Now looking at Zhuge Liang, who is only seven or eight years old, Chu Yi couldn't help but smile a little. One Lu Xun and the other Zhuge Liang. These people are just children now, but their potential is the top in this world, and even
It can be said that he is a person of great luck who leads an era by gathering the luck of this world.
Chu Yi believed that as long as people like Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun left this world and sent famous teachers to teach and guide them, with the qualifications of people like Zhuge Liang, their future achievements would definitely exceed those of this world.
Facing Chu Yi, Zhuge Gui, and Zhuge Xuan brothers, they were naturally worried. After all, the future of their Zhuge family largely depends on Chu Yi's attitude.
On the other hand, Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jin, and the three brothers looked at Chu Yi curiously, without showing any fear.
Chu Yi said slowly, "The Zhuge family in Langya has many talented people. Now there are three brothers, Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Jun. The future is promising. Chu will give you ten Zhuge family immortality quotas."
Hearing what Chu Yi said, the hearts of brothers Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan finally dropped, and then there was infinite joy in their hearts. Even though they had been mentally prepared before, they still couldn't help but cry with joy and shouted at them.
Chu Yi bowed down.
"The Zhuge family is deeply grateful for His Highness's great kindness and is willing to die for Your Highness."
The confused Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun brothers also followed Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan to worship.
Chu Yi waved his hand and said, "Let's go down and get ready."
After watching these people leave, Chu Yi scanned the greeting cards on the table. It can be said that these greeting cards have been almost processed.
Guo Jia, who was smelling of alcohol, looked straight now, looked at Chu Yi and said: "Your Highness, these aristocratic families are intricately connected and the families are huge. The immortality quota given by Your Highness is probably far from enough.
ah."
Guo Jia is obviously worried that some outstanding people in some families who value love and righteousness will resolutely choose their relatives over immortality when faced with the temptation of immortality and the choice between their relatives.
This possibility is not impossible, but it is 100% likely to occur. Even when faced with the temptation of relatives and immortality, there are many outstanding people who choose relatives.
That's why Guo Jia was so worried. Guo Jia had been holding it in his heart for the past few days, but now that he saw that almost all the families who came to seek immortality had arrived, Guo Jia finally expressed his worries.
Chu Yi glanced at Guo Jia appreciatively. Guo Jia could see this, and Chu Yi could also imagine that most of the people who could grow up to become outstanding people are people who value love and righteousness. Some of these people may resist
If you can't resist the temptation of immortality, you will more likely give up on immortality because of your immortality quota. This possibility is not that it will happen, but it will happen 100% of the time.
Smiling slightly, Chu Yi looked at Guo Jiaqi and said, "Oh, in terms of filial piety, what should Chu do?"
Guo Jia took a deep breath and said slowly: "My subordinates don't know either."
Chu Yi waved his hand and said: "Fengxiao, don't worry. Chu didn't say it clearly before. The immortality quota does not refer to a single person. It can be a family. These are just Chu's thoughts.
.”
Chu Yi's words immediately made Guo Jia's eyes light up. He couldn't think of a way, just because he didn't know how scarce the immortality quota was.
After all, in Guo Jia's view, if you want to achieve immortality, you must pay a huge price. Every time Chu Yi grants a place, every place must be very precious.
Therefore, without knowing how many people Chu Yi could live forever, Guo Jia couldn't think of any way. However, listening to Chu Yi's meaning, how could Guo Jia not understand the possibility of Chu Yi?
The number of people who can transition far exceeds everyone's expectations.
You must know that according to what Chu Yi said, one quota can represent one family, so Chu Yi gave the Lu family and the Zhuge family ten quotas each. In other words, the Lu family and the Zhuge family can take away ten families within the Zhuge family.
.
If Zhuge Gui's father and son plus Zhuge Gui's wife and children are added together, there are probably six or seven people. This can be regarded as one household, and Zhuge Xuan's family can also be regarded as one household. This is just an occupation.
Just got two of the ten places.
In this way, there is no need to worry about the scarcity of places causing some outstanding people to give up their immortality and choose to share the blessings and misfortune with their relatives.
Like the Zhuge family, the family is not as large as the Xun family, the Sima family, the Yang family, and the Wang family. The immortality quota granted by Chu Yi is enough for their close relatives to live forever together, but the Xun family, the Sima family, and the Yang family are huge.
The family, not to mention other things, is the Sima clan alone, Sima Bada is just a branch of Sima Fang. If they add their wives and daughters, I am afraid that giving the Sima clan dozens of immortality quotas may not be able to bring Sima Fang to this branch.
Take it away.
Guo Jia suddenly looked at Chu Yi and said, "Is His Highness trying to test people's hearts through this method?"
Chu Yi didn't say anything, just smiled.
Chu Yi glanced at Guo Jia and said: "As a courtesy, please go to the Sima clan for me and tell them that I will give them ten immortality quotas for the Sima clan and let them allocate them among themselves."
Sima Mansion
After years of multiplication, the Sima clan has become a powerful clan entrenched in the capital, and the name of Sima Bada is even more famous throughout the world.
On this day, Guo Jia, dressed in Tsing Yi, appeared leisurely in front of the Sima family's mansion.
When Sima Fang and others learned that Guo Jia had appeared in front of their mansion, they immediately opened the middle door to welcome Guo Jia.
Who doesn't know that Guo Jia is the most relied-upon counselor of Chu King Chu Yi. It can be said that as long as Guo Jia is willing, just saying a few bad words about Chu Yi is enough to destroy a family.
Even when Sima faced Guo Jia, he did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
With the support of brothers Sima Lang and Sima Yi, Sima Fang bowed his hands to Guo Jia with a smile on his face and said: "Mr. Fengxiao's visit has made our Sima Mansion shine. Sir, please come in and have a talk."
.”
Guo Jia smiled and walked into the Sima Mansion surrounded by everyone from the Sima family.
In the living room, Sima Fang left Sima Lang, and Sima Yi's two sons stayed to chat with Guo Jia. Sima Lang and Guo Jia walked together in the palace. The two were no strangers, but when it came to status, Sima Lang was naturally the
Can't be compared with Guo Jia.
At this moment, Sima Lang raised his hands to Guo Jia and said, "Fengxiao came here this time, could it be that he came here on the order of His Highness?"
Sima Lang knew a lot about Guo Jia. Even though Guo Jia seemed to be a romantic and uninhibited person, he was the most disciplined and bottom-line when it came to business matters.
Sima Lang also invited Guo Jia to his house several times, but Guo Jia turned him down without any trace every time. This time Guo Jia came to visit in person, which was definitely not Guo Jia's intention.
Guo Jia smiled and said: "It's Boda who understands Guo. Guo came here on His Highness's order. His Highness ordered me to tell Sima that His Highness will grant ten immortality quotas to Sima. I hope Sima will."
You can make a good distribution."
Sima Fang was happy at first, and then his face showed a bit of bitterness. Although with Sima Yi and Sima Lang's explanation, Sima Fang knew in his heart that the Sima clan with them would not miss the chance of immortality.
Bada's reputation is outside the realm. Since Chu Yi wants to transform a group of outstanding people, he will definitely not be able to avoid their Sima clan.
It's just that Sima Fang didn't expect that the number of immortality quotas granted by Chu Yi was only ten people. With their Sima family's relationship network, it would be no problem to inquire about the immortality quotas of other families who had received immortality quotas.
Ten places seemed to be a lot, but it was too few for their Sima clan. Sima Bada alone and Sima Fang took up almost all the places at once. In this way, even if he wanted to bring
There is no chance of marrying his wife or daughter.
Not to mention others, for example, Sima Lang and Sima Yi are both married, and each has a wife and children. The ten quotas may be barely enough for those small families, but for the Sima family, it is far from enough.
Guo Jia saw the expressions of the Sima family members in his eyes and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.
Sima Lang sighed slightly, looked at his old father, and then at Sima Yi who had his head lowered, and heard Sima Lang say: "It is our Sima family's honor that His Highness can grant ten places. Father, my second brother should be happy."
yes."
As he spoke, Sima Lang raised his hands and bowed in the direction of Chu Yi's mansion, and said solemnly: "Sima, thank you for your highness."
Sima Fang and Sima Yi also made a salute.
Sima Lang said to Guo Jiaqi: "Please tell His Highness after Fengxiao returns, saying that our Sima clan will definitely select the best disciples to serve His Highness."
Guo Jia looked at Sima Lang and said: "Boda, you can't be..."
Sima Lang smiled bitterly and said: "My talents and learning are limited, and I am not as good as my father, second brother, and the others. Your Highness is so kind and has given me ten places. No matter how much I, Sima, are divided, it will not be enough. It is better for me to serve your Highness partly and leave the rest."
Continue the Sima family’s legacy.”
Hearing what Sima Lang said, he was obviously ready to give up the opportunity of immortality. This made Guo Jia straighten up his expression, look at Sima Lang with a bit of admiration and said: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for immortality. Once you miss it, you will only lose it."
I’m afraid there will be no chance again in the future, so you have to think carefully..."
Sima Lang nodded towards Guo Jia.
After Guo Jia left, the Sima family naturally quarreled over the quota.
Not only the Sima family, the Yang family, the Xun family, and the Wang family are also facing the same problem as the Sima family. Some people are like Sima Lang. On the one hand, their family does not have enough quota, and on the other hand, they cannot abandon their wives, children, and children. In the end, they have no choice but to
Choose to give up.
With Chu Yi's information channels, naturally everything that happened in each family could not be hidden from Chu Yi. Chu Yi did not come forward to make it clear. He wanted these people to know how precious the quota for immortality was, without going through a spiritual ordeal.
Hard work, how could these people cherish it?
Although he had long decided to take away the relatives of these outstanding people as much as possible, so as not to leave any regrets to these people, one was obtained for nothing, and the other had to go through the ordeal of life and death, and then Chu Yi would grant the quota again.
I believe that for these people, the immortality quota obtained in this way is precious enough.
While various internal affairs were going on over the immortality quota, the great altar of Tongtian that attracted the attention of all parties was due to the efforts of Xun Yu, Zhang Zhao and others, and even generals such as Huang Zhong and Lu Bu were involved.
Under such circumstances, it was finally completed successfully.
Looking at the large altar to the sky that was finally built after everyone's hard work, Xun Yu, Zhang Zhao and others looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. After tidying up for a while, they went straight to the Prince of Chu's Mansion.
