Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

"I also told him to work less on weekdays, but he never heard of it once!"

The speaker's voice was clear and gentle, and even though it was getting late, he still wore a curtain hat so that his face could not be seen.

Kong Ming's face was slightly embarrassed, and he hurried forward to greet him:

"Madam! Why are you here so early today?"

The curtain hat obscured others and could not clearly see Huang Yueying's expression. They could only hear her saying slowly:

"Even if nothing happens, I plan to call you home early... Your old friend came to visit today, and I asked him to leave a greeting note and come back later."

Kong Ming also noticed the famous thorn in Huang Yueying's hand and took it curiously.

At this time, the famous thorns were still made of bamboo slips. Kong Ming turned it over and read the words written on it softly:

"Engaged in Ma Liang - Asking about daily life - Yicheng Zi Jichang"

"Is this an old acquaintance of my husband?" Huang Yueying was curious.

"No." Kong Ming shook his head and said with a smile: "This person is an official in the state that Xuande conquered half a year ago. At that time, I saw that he was quick-thinking and well-controlled in advance and retreat, so I mentioned a few more words. Four months ago Duke Xuande sent him to Lingling on official business, and now Xu is back."

"That's fine. Madam, please wait a moment. I'll sort out the official documents and then go home with you."

In this way, Kong Ming pinched the famous thorn and returned to the hall to put away the documents that were dealt with today into categories. Guangmu's words were carefully copied on the precious Zuo Bo paper. After a moment of hesitation, he took a bamboo tube and put the documents on Zuo Bo's paper. Put it away, seal it, and carry it with you.

It was already dark after they returned home, and before the two of them could take a break, a servant came to report that Ma Liang had come to visit again.

"Ask him to wait for a moment in the side hall." Kong Ming tidied up his appearance and went to the side hall to meet Ma Liang.

Just like the last time we met, what stood out about Ma Liang was the dots of white hair between his eyebrows. From a distance, those eyebrows seemed to be gray-white. No wonder others called him Baimei.

"Has Ji Chang ever had a meal? How about we talk while eating?"

"Then I'm sorry." Ma Liang responded with a normal expression, and Kong Ming admired in his heart: He is neither humble nor arrogant, he is a talent.

The food at Zhuge Liang's home was not luxurious, it could only be said to be a little better than simple meals. It didn't matter, Kong Ming had never valued enjoyment, and at this time he only controlled the four counties of Jingzhou, so Liu Beijun's entire life was not rich.

Ma Liang was not dissatisfied with this, but what Ma Liang didn't expect was that the atmosphere at Zhuge Liang's family banquet was cheerful, and his son and daughter were enjoying themselves. Mrs. Huang, who was said to have a terrifying appearance, also had a beautiful face and was not as bad as rumored.

It's just that Zhuge Liang's two youngest sons always cast curious eyes on Ma Liang's eyebrows, making him a little restless.

Kong Ming noticed Ma Liang's expression and said with a smile while picking up vegetables for the child: "How was Ji Chang's harvest from this trip to Lingling?"

When it came to business matters, Ma Liang's expression became much more natural, and he answered one by one after a moment's thought. Kong Ming also mentioned some of his own experience in handling official matters and talked with Ma Liang, and the two had a very happy conversation for a while.

"The people in Lingling are simple and honest. If Duke Xuande revives the Han Dynasty one day, I will live in Lingling County forever." Ma Liang sighed, and then told an interesting story: "This time I went to Lingling and killed a group of bandits. , and the bandit leader calls himself General Lingling."

"General Lingling?" Kong Ming clapped his hands and laughed: "How is his military strength?"

"One horse, three slave horses, fifty civilians, ten pairs of swords and spears, and half a pair of bamboo plate armor." Ma Liang counted his family treasures: "He claimed to be the general under Liu Du, the prefect of Lingling."

"It's a pity that when Liang led the army, Taishou Liu was around. This man claimed to be under Taishou Liu's tent but did not know Taishou Liu. He was killed by Liu Xian, the son of the prefect, and was killed."

"Prefect Liu wanted to testify to the surrounding villagers that Admiral Lingling had never plundered, destroyed crops, or killed anyone, so he recruited him to be the gatekeeper general of Prefect Lingling."

"That's fine." Kong Ming nodded and said: "Perhaps the best choice is to recruit him to be kind. When I go to Lingling next time, I will definitely meet this gatekeeper general."

After the dishes were finished, everyone was almost done eating. The food was removed and the children were taken to the backyard to play by the servants. Huang Yueying was still by Kong Ming's side.

At this time, Ma Liang finally talked about the serious matter of this visit: "Liang has a younger brother who has read many books since he was a child and aspires to become a prince on horseback. Recently, he has written letters and begged many times, but Liang couldn't help it, so he has the audacity to come to ask for help. , if there is a lack of an errand boy in the military advisor's account..."

Kong Ming laughed and said: "Ji Chang is a talented person. Liu Jingzhou is also hungry for talents now. Just come quickly! Tell me his place of birth and name, and I will write a warrant later."

Ma Liang was overjoyed and said: "So, thank you to the military advisor. My brother's nickname is Youchang. He is a native of Yicheng and his name is Su."

Kong Ming wrote down according to his words, Ma Su in Yicheng, Ma Su is always young... Ma Su! ? His younger brother Ma Su? !

Ma Liang was so happy that he didn't notice it, but Huang Yueying could see clearly that her husband's whole body was tensed up, like a bow. The last time he saw him like this was before he went to Jiangdong as an envoy.

How could my husband react so much to a name? If it was a great sage, she should have heard of this name, but Huang Yueying was very sure that she had never heard of this name before today.

Ma Liang's request was granted, and he left with the order in hand and a lot of thanks.

Huang Yueying looked at Kong Ming, who was standing at the door in a daze, a little worried: "What news did your husband hear?"

Kong Ming, who was in a daze, seemed to have just woken up from a dream. He didn't know how to talk about it for a while, and finally sighed and said: "Madam, if I don't want to talk about it, it is too absurd to talk about."

"Then don't talk about it." Huang Yueying said with a smile: "It won't be too late to wait until my husband has thought about it and wants to talk about it."

Kong Ming shook his head, then cheered up and said: "Let's not talk about these future things. Today I got pictures of two novel farm tools. Madam will help me give advice."

The future? Huang Yueying was puzzled, but her interest was immediately attracted by the novel farm tools Kong Ming said.

"Novel farm tools?"

"Yes, it is said to be more useful."

"Then what's the use of looking at pictures? Why not just go to the fields and see with your own eyes."

"Well...it is said that it was passed down from Yuzhou...Jizhou, so there are only pictures."

"really?"

"..."

"Then I will temporarily assume that they are from Jizhou."

…

It was a quiet night, but there were still two men as majestic as tiger bears fighting each other with their bare upper bodies on the martial arts field of the Public Security County House.

The red-faced man used his elbows as a noose to tie the black-faced man's neck, and shouted: "Third brother, are you convinced?"

The dark-faced man didn't struggle. He stood firm, and then the muscles in his upper body became knotted, and the veins in his neck popped out, forcefully holding the red-faced man's arms open like muscles!

Then he squatted down, grabbed the red-faced man's right arm and said "lift", forcefully throwing him over his shoulder.

The red-faced man turned over and landed firmly on the ground, shouting "Again!"

Two little ones stood side by side next to the martial arts arena, and they whispered boredly:

"Hey, how long do you think dad and uncle are going to fight?"

"I don't know, but it should be over when my dad gets hungry, right?"

"Hey, but two days ago, my dad was dreaming that my uncle was dead."

"Your father just died!"

"My father also said in his sleep that your eldest brother was also dead and was beheaded together with his uncle. He was so miserable. My father cried so loudly in his sleep."

"Zhang Bao! Are you looking for a fight?"

"Guan Xing, you think I'm afraid of you! You told me that it was my father's sleep talk, not me!"

"I think you need to take care of yourself!"

"I'm afraid you are not the son of Zhang Yide from Yan!"

After saying that, the two children rolled into a ball and started to fight with bastard punches and crotch-picking fists.

I'm a little late today, and I'm delirious from working overtime. Sorry, I'll update on time tomorrow.
