In a quiet thatched cottage in Longzhong on the outskirts of Xiangyang, two people were sitting opposite each other.
The older man had a worried look on his face, stroking his beard and asked: "De Cao, it seems that everything is calm in Jingzhou now, but there is already a turbulent undercurrent inside.
What do you think about this?"
The opposite person is also a man with an elegant appearance, a pine-shaped crane bone, and extraordinary equipment.
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he said: "Okay, okay" When the man opposite heard this, he couldn't help but tear off one of his beards and couldn't help but laugh or cry: "Decao, how long has it been since this happened?
You still just want to be a good gentleman.
Even if you want to, the heroes in the world can make you as you wish" "Decao" is the name of Mr.
Shui Jing, Sima Hui.
The man said this about Sima Hui, obviously he was familiar with Sima Hui's temperament.
Sima Hui never talked about other people's shortcomings.
When talking to others, no matter whether it was good or bad, he always said "good".
His wife scolded him and said, "Others think you are a moral gentleman, so why do you agree to everything they say when they tell you private matters?"
He replied, "Whatever you say is fine."
This matter happened in Jing.
It was rumored that there was no discussion in the Xiang area for a while, and the term "good gentleman" in later generations came from Sima Hui.
"Old man Huang, don't just think that Jingxiang is going to be in chaos.
Who knows, great chaos can only be achieved after chaos.
Jingzhou is the heart of the Han Dynasty.
It connects Sili to the north, Sichuan and Shu to the west, and the Central Plains to the east.
It was originally the place of the Four Wars.
Originally The world is in chaos, all because the Central Plains is rich and powerful, but now the three families of Ma, Cao and Sun are in power.
Standing, the only place to make progress is Jingzhou.
If Jingzhou does not experience this pain, I am afraid it will not be able to achieve the great peace and prosperity."
At this point, Sima Hui smiled freely: "After the chaos, there will be a hero who can calm the world. , we can consider it a blessing that Jingzhou can become a place where dragons and tigers fight."
"It's nonsense" Huang Chengyan is a pure Confucian, and what a Confucian values most is something that the Legalist Sima Hui could not imagine in any case: "When war breaks out, the sky is full of flames, and thousands of common people die tragically."
On the battlefield, tens of thousands of farmland and houses were destroyed.
You are lying quietly in the middle of the sky, not thinking about relieving the common people in the world, but you are talking nonsense here.
Do you think that once the war starts, your thatched cottage will still stand here safely. " Sima Hui saw that Huang Chengyan was a little angry and did not answer.
He took a sip of tea.
After Huang Chengyan's anger had dissipated a little, he spoke slowly: "This troubled world is about to happen.
It is the general trend.
I and others outside the country, How can you change your destiny?"
After saying this, Sima Hui let out a long sigh.
Huang Chengyan, who was opposite him, couldn't help but fall silent when he heard Sima Hui's insight.
However, not long after, the two people's eyes converged with great tacit understanding outside the window.
There, there was a boy bending down to sprinkle water, carefully watering the flowers and plants in front of the thatched cottage.
The two looked at each other again.
They understood what the other was thinking and laughed knowingly.
Sima Hui coughed slightly and shouted clearly: "Xiao Liang, come in for a moment."
When the boy heard this, he couldn't help but reveal a wry smile.
He reluctantly put down the kettle in his hand and walked towards the thatched cottage.
At this time, both Huang Chengyan and Sima Hui saw that this boy was handsome and delightful, with a pair of big eyes that were as bright as black gems, and those innocent eyes were full of the brilliance of wisdom.
Standing in front of the two of them, he was not surprised, not busy, and calm and composed.
Even adults could not match him.
Although the two of them had been watching the boy for two years, it seemed as if they couldn't get enough of it.

It was as if as soon as the boy appeared, all the brilliance in the world was attracted to him.
"Morality, how old is Xiaoliang this year?"
"fourteen."
"Oh, my A Chou is also the same age, why not" As soon as he said this, Sima Hui frowned: "Old man Huang, no matter how many times you say this, I can't make the decision.
If you really want to marry your A Chou to Xiao Liang, Go and tell Yuzhang."
The Zhuge family's ancestral home was Langya, Xuzhou.
Two years ago in Xuzhou, Zhuge Liang fled to Xiangyang with his uncle Zhuge Xuan.
Because Zhuge Xuan became friends with Liu Biao, he was recommended by Liu Biao as the governor of Yuzhang.
At that time, the situation in Yuzhang was also unstable, so Zhuge Xuan left Zhuge Liang and his third brother Zhuge Jun to study with Mr.
Shui Jing, and took Zhuge Jin to Yuzhang alone to take office.
In ancient times, marriage was naturally ordered by the parents, although the teacher had the right to act on behalf of the father.
But Zhuge Xuan of Yuzhang has not died.
If Huang Chengyan really wants to marry the Zhuge family, he really can't escape Zhuge Xuan.
But Yuzhang had long been captured by Sun Ce, and there was no way to send letters, so Huang Chengyan had no choice but to rely on his superior, Ma Hui.
Huang Chengyan wanted to say more, but this time Mr.
Hao's expression turned a bit bad.
He stretched out his hand to stop Huang Chengyan, faced Zhuge Liang and asked, "You heard what we said before."
"I heard it."
Zhuge Liang replied honestly.
"Then you say, Jingzhou is already like this, so what should we do?"
Sima Hui's face showed no hint of consideration, and could even be said to be a tone of asking for advice.
"I am only fourteen years old this year and I don't understand these important political matters."
Zhuge Liang looked bitter, obviously not wanting to waste words with these two old men.
"Let go" Sima Hui had a temper after all, but thinking that he was still Zhuge Liang's master, he kept the last word in his stomach and said angrily: "Parents, please don't slow down.
Although I am not your parent, but in the past two years, education" Hearing Sima Hui talk about these old almanacs again, Zhuge Liang's face became even more bitter, and he quickly said: "Don't worry, Jingzhou won't be in chaos, and teacher, you don't have to run away in a hurry."
As soon as these words came out, Sima Hui's face almost turned purple, but Huang Chengyan laughed happily and asked happily: "Then Xiao Liang, tell me, why can't Jingzhou become chaotic?"
"The Ma family has been fighting for many years, and the country has long been exhausted.
It seems that the tiger is in the north, but it is flashy.
Cao Cao of Yanzhou sent troops to Qingzhou in order to shock the imperialists in the court.
After this, his focus should be on the imperial court.
Above that, Jingzhou will not be attacked in the short term; that madman Sun Ce , is ambitious, but after all, he is a newborn calf and does not know the bravery of the tiger in the north.
Once something happens, the Ma family and the Cao family will sit back and watch.
As long as the two of them have a tacit understanding, Sun Ce can only make long-term plans.
The tacit understanding between the Cao family and the two families is quite close."
Huang Chengyan held his breath as he listened to Zhuge Liang's endless talk.
On the side, Sima Hui seemed to be a little reluctant to get off the stage.
Some complained that Zhuge Liang suddenly revealed that he had just been sanctimonious, but he actually wanted to escape from Jingzhou.
He then said angrily: "You are not a weakling, so you talk about the overall situation of the world.
Not to mention Tell us whether these three families are as you expected, just say that Zhou Mu is seriously ill and Cai Mao secretly planned this matter, and Jingzhou will be in chaos.
What else do you have to say?"
When Huang Chengyan saw that Sima Hui had told everything about Liu Biao's serious illness in one sentence, Huang Chengyan couldn't help but feel moved.
After all, the news had not spread in Jingzhou yet.
And it was because he married Cai's eldest daughter that he got the news from Liu Biao's concubine Cai.
But Sima Hui, a talkative guy, told such an important matter to a sixteen-year-old boy at once.
He secretly blamed Sima Hui and Meng Lang.

Once the news came out, it would definitely cause Jingzhou to be in turmoil.
However, when he turned back, he saw Zhuge Liang's understanding look.
He was even more surprised and hurriedly urged: "Xiao Liang, why do you look like this?"
"Because Liu Jingzhou is bound to suffer this disaster, so that Jingzhou can avoid being attacked by war."
At this time, both Huang Chengyan and Sima Hui's eyes widened.
They looked at Zhuge Liang in disbelief and asked in unison: "Why?"
"Because Liu Zhoumu is the hub and leader that maintains the major forces in Jingzhou, and Jingzhou is watched covetously by all the heroes.
Only by removing his board can the water in Jingzhou flow freely.
In this way, Jingzhou, which is a mess, will be much easier to deal with."
Zhuge Liang When he said these words, his face was as calm as Gu Bo, as if the world's conspiracy should be like this.
But Huang Chengyan and Sima Hui never expected that such a delicate and treacherous link would be suddenly exposed by Zhuge Liang, and both of them felt a sense of hindsight.
Especially Sima Hui, cold sweat broke out from behind.
But then I carefully thought about Zhuge Liang's words, but I didn't understand something: "You just said that Jingzhou can't be in chaos, but now you say that someone wants to eradicate Liuzhou Mu and turn Jingzhou into a mess.
This is not contradictory."
Zhuge Liang sighed.
He didn't want to enter this thatched cottage before.
This was the reason why the two old men had lived for most of their lives and were both famous people in Jingchu.
Why did he bother to explain such a simple truth?
