"It's not just serious. I'm afraid it will become a black spot for my talented brother's life!"

Zhuge Liang said seriously.

"Then do you know where the Pang Tong family lives?"

Wu Liang still asked.

"I know, I know. Brother Youcai, are you sure you want to meet this person?"

Zhuge Liang wrinkled his childish face, but seeing that Wu Liang didn't seem to change his mind, he finally said, "I can lead the way for my talented brother, but I don't bother to meet such a birdman.

Brother Cai just goes to see you by yourself, don’t take me with you, lest it taint my eyes.”

"Don't worry, my dear brother. I just went to meet this man. I have no intention of making friends with him. In my heart, when it comes to talent, no one in the world can be as good as my dear brother."

Wu Liang nodded with a smile, and then said, "But Brother Zhuge, I have a small suggestion for you. If you can accept it, you may benefit from it for life."

"Oh? Please tell me, my talented brother. If it really benefits me a lot, I will accept it humbly."

Although Zhuge Liang is a young madman, after being beaten by Wu Liang in the tomb and seeing Wu Liang's ability, he now admires him and is willing to listen to what he has to say. The fastest updated mobile phone

end::

What's more, Wu Liangcai just praised him as "the most talented in the world", which really touched his heart. Now Wu Liang is going to give him a beating, and the kid will probably accept it happily.

As a rebellious boy in adolescence, you just have to smooth it over. Once you smooth out your rebellious psychology, you can do whatever you say...

"Easy to say."

Wu Liang nodded slightly and asked with a smile, "Brother Xian is also a person who is familiar with history books. He must have read a lot of historical allusions. Throughout history, there are countless capable people and strangers. Do you know why some people are obviously talented but achieve nothing in the end?

, but ended up with a ruined family, but some people can be made marquises and prime ministers and make great achievements, my dear brother, do you know why?"

"In my opinion, it is the times that make heroes, and it is nothing more than times and destiny."

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and answered seriously.

"But some people have the same destiny at the same time, why are the endings still different? Just like today, in the same troubled times, talented people have chosen good trees to live in, knowledge, family background, opportunities, lord... these people have the same

Given the opportunity, why are some people able to break into the house while others end up with their heads and body parts missing?"

Wu Liang asked again.

"this……"

This question really stumped Zhuge Liang. The boy frowned and thought for a long time, but still couldn't come up with a reasonable answer. He had to ask Wu Liangcheng for help, "I don't know, please give me some advice from my talented brother."

"Although there may be an element of fate in this, as the saying goes, 'man's plan is up to God.' In my opinion, the biggest problem why these people have different endings is probably the word 'love'."

Wu Liang smiled.

"Affection?"

Zhuge Liang was confused after hearing this.

Several backbones of the Hu army next to them also looked puzzled, and then they turned back to look at Bai Jingjing, who also looked puzzled, and said to themselves, "Is this the reason why the young master is different?"

Especially Yu Ji.

When the old boy heard this word, he even began to wonder if he had made a wrong persistence in his life, which was why he was so inactive...

"What are you looking at me for? It has nothing to do with me!"

Bai Jingjing's pretty face turned slightly red, and she quickly lowered her head to avoid everyone's gaze.

Wu Liang was also impressed by the understanding of these guys, so he had to explain to everyone in more detail: "The 'love' I am talking about is 'emotional intelligence', not the love between a man and a woman."

"Emotional intelligence?"

This is another word that no one can understand.

"Brother Youcai, what does the word 'emotional intelligence' mean?"

Zhuge Liang withdrew his gaze and asked quickly.

"To put it simply, the meaning of 'emotional intelligence' is that I know that I am better than you, but I will never say that I am better than you. I know that I am the best in the world, but I will never say that I am the second."

Wu Liang smiled calmly and said in a persuasive manner, "Brother Zhuge, when you understand the meaning of this sentence, you will also have enough emotional intelligence. Then it will be the time for you to become a prince and prime minister."

"I know I am number one in the world, but I will always say I am number two..."

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, chewing Wu Liang's words carefully, but his brows gradually relaxed, as if he had begun to understand the meaning of these sentences.

"..."

When everyone in the Hu army heard this, they looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

Dian Wei and Bai Jingjing may have slightly lower emotional intelligence, but Yang Wanli and Yu Jike are both experienced in dealing with people, so they naturally understood the intention of Wu Liang's words in an instant.

I have to admit that it led to such a arrogant and rebellious little kid.

Wu Liang claims to be second, but probably no one in the world would dare to claim to be first...

…

Without further ado.

After instructing the soldiers of the Hu army to continue handling the follow-up work at Qiumu Cemetery, Wu Liang took Dian Wei, Bai Jingjing, Yu Ji, Yang Wanli, and Zhuge Liang to leave Deng County and go straight to Xiangyang City, not far from here.

Zhuge Liang led the way, and the first place he visited was naturally the Huang family where Huang Yueying lived.

Wu Liang knew that Huang Yueying's real name must not be Huang Yueying, because at this time, the nobles valued single names, and only ordinary people with particularly low social status would have two-character names.

Even if the Huang family is in decline now, they will definitely not give Huang Yueying such a two-character name.

If the guess is correct, "Yueying" should be the name she picked up after Ji Ji, and her real name still needs to be verified.

Therefore, Huang Yueying's father's real name is not "Huang Chengyan". He also has a formal single name. Although there is no record in history, his real name Wu Liang has been learned through Zhuge Liang.

Huang Chengyan’s real name is Huang Shuang and his courtesy name is Chengyan.

It's a pity that Huang Yueying's real name Zhuge Liang is unknown.

After all, Huang Yueying is still a girl who has not left the court. Although there is no custom these days that forces women to stay at home, the Huang family was once a respectable noble family. Naturally, a girl who has not left the court will not show up often, so Zhuge Liang

There is no chance of contact with such a little brat, so it is reasonable not to know.

More than an hour later.

Wu Liang and others finally entered Xiangyang City.

Although I can't say that the current Xiangyang City is bustling with people, it is more prosperous than most places Wu Liang has been to. There are not many pedestrians coming and going on the street, and there are slightly more young and middle-aged people than in Chenliu County City.

This is because many big-name noble families gathered in Jingchu during the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Although the princes from all walks of life have raised armies, in order not to offend these noble clans and avoid being criticized by the world, no one will bring the war to this place for the time being... It is precisely for this reason that after Zhuge Xuan died, the powerless Zhuge Liang was able to

I lived in seclusion here comfortably until I was 27, and my life was pretty good.

Of course, marrying Huang Yueying and becoming the son-in-law of the Huang family should not be irrelevant.

However, Wu Liang would definitely not tell Zhuge Liang about this in advance. Maybe after meeting him, Zhuge Liang's fate has quietly changed. It is hard to say whether he and Huang Yueying still have a historical marriage.

Naturally, Wu Liang would not force Zhuge Liang, nor was he qualified to force Huang Yueying.

Anyway, the two of them are still young and have not yet reached the age of marriage.

Wu Liang has only one purpose for this trip, which is to see the legendary Huang Yueying with his own eyes, to see if she is as ugly and as talented as recorded in history books, to satisfy his curiosity...

After passing through the bluestone streets of Xiangyang City, Wu Liang and others soon arrived in front of a sizable house.

This house looks about the same size as Wu Liang's big house in Chenliu County, but it is a bit older. The vermilion paint on the door has shown signs of cracking, and the color of the wood underneath the vermilion paint is exposed in many places. The door

Some of the iron door nails on the door are also mottled with rust, and only the door knocker that is often used is relatively smooth.

besides.

The plaque on the door has also faded, and the word "Huang Mansion" engraved on it is gray and desolate.

It seems that what Zhuge Liang said is right. The Huang family has indeed fallen into decline, and they can no longer even care about the appearance that represents the most important thing to the noble family.

Probably for this reason, Huang Chengyan betrothed Huang Yueying to Zhuge Liang, and asked Huang Yueying to accompany Zhuge Liang on the hills outside Deng County to live in the poor days when men farmed and women weaved.

"Brother Youcai, may I go in first and inform you?"

Zhuge Liang turned around and asked.

In fact, the door of Huang's Mansion was ajar at the moment, and there was no servant guarding it. Wu Liang and others could just walk in without any hesitation.

However, in terms of etiquette, it is better to send someone in first to inform you.

"Go ahead and say that I am Liu Biao's lieutenant under General Liu's command, and I am here to visit you on General Liu's order."

Wu Liang threw his black ribbon seal to Zhuge Liang and said with a smile.

As far as Wu Liang knew, Huang Chengyan and Liu Biao actually had some relationship.

According to historical records, Huang Chengyan's father-in-law Cai Xi had two daughters in total. The eldest daughter married Huang Chengyan, and the younger daughter married Liu Biao and was deeply loved by Liu Biao.

Putting it all together, Huang Chengyan and Liu Biao can naturally be regarded as relatives.

However, judging from the current situation, the relationship between Huang Chengyan and Liu Biao seems to be just that. Otherwise, if Liu Biao had helped a little and randomly arranged an official position for Huang Chengyan, the Huang family would not have been in despair even if their family fortunes were in decline.

To this extent now.
