Chaisang Inn, a certain room.
A young man sat in the middle, holding a silk book in his hand and reading.
Zhuge Liang held a cup of hot tea and respectfully handed it to the young man.
The young man frowned, reached out to take the hot tea, opened his mouth slightly and blew a breath towards the tea cup.
"Why, don't you have anything to explain to me?"
Zhuge Liang, who was usually in high spirits, was now hunkering down and sitting obediently beside the young man.
The young man put down the silk book and revealed a face that was somewhat similar to Zhuge Liang.
It's exactly Zhuge Jin!
"Brother, please have tea."
Zhuge Liang did not answer directly, but lowered his posture and made a gesture of invitation.
"snort."
Zhuge Jin snorted lightly, but still held the tea cup with both hands, raised his head and drank it all.
Phew~
Zhuge Jin took a long breath of hot breath.
"This tea is really good. It can ward off the cold and warm the stomach. I bet you are so thoughtful."
Zhuge Liang also breathed a sigh of relief.
Since Zhuge Jin drank this cup of tea, it meant that the eldest brother was not really angry with him.
Zhuge Liang took the empty tea cup and went to refill it.
Zhuge Jin pretended to be angry: "Why don't you explain it? If you don't talk, I won't drink!"
"Have you forgotten your hometown?"
"Weren't you very eloquent when you were little? Why do you like to play dumb now?"
"Show me your sharp tongue and eloquent side again!"
Zhuge Liang moved his lips while holding the new hot tea.
"Brother...this matter...is very strange!"
Zhuge Liang has been thinking about it for several days, but he still can't figure out how to explain it to Zhuge Jin when they meet.
"okay!"
Zhuge Jin took the hot tea. This time, he did not drink it directly. Instead, he smelled the tea aroma first, and then took a slow sip.
After tasting it carefully, he finally smacked it and said, "Good tea! It leaves a fragrance on your lips and teeth. It is indeed a good tea!"
"This tea is absolutely extraordinary. It must have been given by your little lord to his little strategist!"
Zhuge Jin said with a joking expression.
Zhuge Liang lowered his head in embarrassment, his feet almost digging out three rooms and one living room.
Looking at my younger brother, who has been extremely talented since he could remember, and has never had a problem since he was a child, he couldn't hold his head up when asked by himself for the first time. Zhuge Jin was very happy.
young!
Still young!
So what if you were born smarter than me?
I have no social experience, so I was stunned by others!
Hahaha!
It would be more useful for me to travel around early and accumulate contacts and experience!
In front of me, you, Zhuge Liang, are always a younger brother!
"snort!"
"Brother, I want to see how capable this heir of the Yuan family is, how capable he is of defeating you."
Zhuge Jin put down the tea cup that he only took a small sip from, stood up, and straightened his clothes.
Zhuge Liang quickly stood up and stopped him: "No...Brother, Yuan Xianneng is very evil. Every time I see him, I have a feeling in my heart... He seems to be the nemesis of our Zhuge family."
"What kind of nemesis can't be nemesis!"
"You continue to stay here, and let me go meet this man named Yuan."
Seeing that Zhuge Jin was about to meet Yuan Yao, Zhuge Liang immediately panicked.
"Brother, you have traveled a long way and are tired. Why don't you try another day..."
"Someday?" Zhuge Jin shook his head nonchalantly: "I'm afraid that one day I'll be the governor of the state and I don't know yet!"
"No, no, no, brother, you must not go see him!"
If you meet Yuan Yao, I'm afraid there will really be no room for change.
Seeing that Zhuge Jin could not be persuaded by his good words, Zhuge Liang pointed at the table in a panic.
"Brother, I haven't finished drinking this tea yet!"
Zhuge Jin arranged his appearance and clothes and said confidently:
"Pour some tea. Brother, I'll come as soon as I go."
After saying that, Zhuge Jin picked up the silk book he had just read on the desk and walked out the door.
This silk letter is Yuan Yao's declaration of appointing Zhuge Jin as county magistrate.
The form is stamped with Yuan Yao's seal, but the county name is still blank. Zhuge Jin only needs to write down a county name with his pen, and the silk document will be officially effective. You can immediately receive an ink ribbon and a With the current bronze seal, he can be directly appointed as the first-class county magistrate with the rank of Qianshi.
But Zhuge Jin didn't want to accept the silk letter at all at this time.
If the world knew that I, Zhuge Jin, got the Qianshi official position by relying on my younger brother to speak good words in front of others, how could I, Zhuge Jin, have the dignity to continue hanging around in the circle of the younger generation of scholars?
Although being recommended by others is an important way to become an official, it also depends on who recommended you.
Zhuge Jin would never accept being recommended as an official by his younger brother.
Especially this younger brother is still a minor!
I, Zhuge Jin, once determined to learn and become an official, but how could I recognize my master just because of a childish remark?
joke!
Zhuge Jin opened the door, held his head high and strode towards Yuan Yao's residence.
Maybe others don't know who you are, Yuan Yao, but I, Zhuge Jin, have been traveling across the Yangtze River and Huaihe River for several years, and I already know the details of this playboy like you!
You, Yuan Yao, can fool others, but you cannot fool me, Zhuge Ziyu!
I only need to use a little trick to expose your true nature and withdraw your employment from my Zhuge family.
Hum hum!
…
After a while, Zhuge Jin opened the door again and stumbled in.
Seeing his confused expression, Zhuge Liang's heart immediately tightened.
"Brother!"
"No, you too...?"
When Zhuge Liang stepped forward to help Zhuge Jin, he heard his brother still muttering to himself: "It doesn't make sense!"
"It makes absolutely no sense!"
Zhuge Liang helped Zhuge Jin sit down, and while stroking Zhuge Jin's back, he persuaded him: "It's okay, it's okay, it's not your fault."
Zhuge Jin was already unconscious, and suddenly grabbed Zhuge Liang's sleeves and shouted: "Why is this happening? Tell me why!"
"Am I making all this too complicated?"
Zhuge Jin began to talk to himself.
Seeing that his brother's symptoms were more serious than his own a few days ago, Zhuge Liang felt distressed and said, "We don't want to think about it anymore!"
"Once you've come, let's take care of it. There's no official position that we can't handle!"
"What?"
"Ah, I mean, there's no obstacle we can't overcome!"
"Come on, big brother, you make tea, oh no, big brother, you drink your teeth!"
Zhuge Liang picked up the cup of tea and handed it to Zhuge Jin.
The tea is still warm.
Zhuge Jin drank a few sips of tea and finally became more awake.
Seeing that his expression had recovered slightly, Zhuge Liang asked: "Brother, what did you say when you went to see General Yuan just now?"
"Alas~" Zhuge Jin let out a long sigh first.
"Alas~" Zhuge Liang immediately agreed.
Zhuge Jin: "You know what I think, right?"
Zhuge Liang nodded: "I know."
Zhuge Jin: "You know what I am like, right?"
Zhuge Liang continued to nod: "I understand you, brother."
Zhuge Jin: "So I just...you understand, right?"
Zhuge Liang's eyes welled up with tears: "I understand! It's all like this!"
Zhuge Jin: "Who would have thought that Yuan Yao..."
"In the end, all I can do is...wuwuwu..."
Zhuge Liang felt the same and couldn't hold back his tears: "Stop talking, brother!"
"This is life!"
The two brothers hugged each other and cried.
