As the sound of the piano rose and fell, Sima Hui took a sip of wine from time to time and nodded slightly to express his praise for Zhuge Liang's superb piano skills.

"gentlemen."

"It's not a good idea for us to do this."

Zhuge Liang smoothed the strings of the zither and spoke to Sima Hui.

"Remember, we are friends now, not master and apprentice."

Sima Hui opened his eyes and said seriously.

Speaking of master and disciple, if people just come and invite Sima Hui directly, that's it.

But if you say they are friends, then the level of prestige will immediately rise.

Who is Sima Hui?

A famous scholar in Jingxiang, everyone knows that he has great talent.

Friends of great talents are all great talents.

Some people say that Zhuge Liang was already a talented person, so why did he need to create so much hype?

There is a very good saying in a game.

If I do not put on this robe, how will sentient beings know that I have severed my worldly ties and my golden sea has dried up?

Having talent is important, but what is more important is to let people know that you have talent.

During the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, many famous scholars emerged, but very few of them had the true talent and knowledge to deserve their fame.

Sima Hui worked so hard to promote Zhuge Liang, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Even if the wine is good, he won’t appreciate it if it’s not well-known, right?

After saying that, Sima Hui took a sip of sake, stirred the wine in his mouth with his tongue, and the aroma of the wine immediately filled every gap between his teeth.

Zhuge Liang also plucked the strings again.

"Bah!"

"How dare you deceive us!"

At this moment, a thunderous roar came from outside the yard.

thump——

puff--

The strings broke and the wine spilled.

Zhuge Liang couldn't help but touch his handsome face which was covered with wine.

I put my hand under my nose and sniffed, and a smell of bad breath mixed with alcohol immediately filled my nasal cavity.

bang bang bang-

Liu, Guan and Zhang jumped off the courtyard wall and walked straight towards the two men.

"Mr. Wolong, Mr. Shuijing."

"I believe I have fulfilled all the formalities, but I don't know why you two are unwilling to see me."

"If you don't want to see me, why did you bring me here several times?"

There was a hint of displeasure on Liu Bei's face, and he was obviously angry.

If you haven't seen this kind of thing.

He could pretend that Zhuge Liang really went to collect herbs.

In order to find talent, it doesn't matter if he tries once, twice or three times.

But when I saw it with my own eyes, I felt that my sincerity had been wasted.

"Envoy Liu, I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to refuse you entry!"

"Last time, I was indeed away, and I just returned this time. I was worried that I was tired, so I asked me to have a good rest."

Zhuge Liang bowed his hands. Although he felt a little embarrassed after being exposed, he was thick-skinned and could still make up for it.

Just tell me whether this statement is reasonable or not, and whether it gives me face or not.

I just came back from collecting herbs in the mountains. I'm tired after half a month. I need to take a break, right?

Is it reasonable?

Reasonable, very reasonable!

It was so reasonable that Liu Bei couldn't continue to get angry.

"Haha, since Kong Ming has a visitor, I will leave first."

"I will go get the herbs from the little boy myself."

"Wait until I exchange the money in the city, and then I'll have someone send it back to you."

Sima Hui was also a smart man. He immediately stood up and cooperated with Zhuge Liang.

Look, we've done all the tricks for you.

Zhuge Liang had indeed just returned from collecting herbs.

In order to shape the image of Zhuge Liang, Sima Hui also added a sentence about exchanging medicinal herbs for money.

Let me ask you, is this character biu or not?

Even though I knew these two were acting, they had already given me a way out, so I might as well just walk down.

Between adults, unless they really want to break up, they have to learn to be hypocritical.

In the thatched cottage

Zhuge Liang invited Liu Bei into the room for a detailed discussion.

As for Guan and Zhang, they were left outside the door.

In the room, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei sat opposite each other on a straw mat.

"Mr. Wolong, the traitor Dong is now powerful and wants to overthrow the Han Dynasty."

"As a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan and a member of the Liu clan, I should protect our ancestral heritage from being seized by traitors."

"I hope you can come out and help me."

Liu Bei bowed respectfully to Zhuge Liang.

"How can you, my Lord, show me such great courtesy?"

"Please get up quickly!"

Zhuge Liang was shocked. He didn't expect Liu Bei to be able to do such a thing.

He really tried his best for the great cause of the world.

"Sir, a man of such talent, how can he live in vain in the mountains and forests? I hope you will think of the people of the world and enlighten me."

Liu Bei clasped his hands and looked at me with sincerity.

"Since that's the case, Liang, I'd like to hear the general's intentions."

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment and said seriously.

Smell...hemorrhoids?

Oh, no, it's ambition.

"Now the Han Dynasty is in decline, traitors are in power, and the traitor Dong is plotting to overthrow the world. I am not prepared for this. I wish to protect the legacy of our ancestors, secure the country, protect the people, pacify the world, and restore the Han Dynasty."

Liu Bei said with a serious expression.
