Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

It was only then that Li Yi turned his eyes away from Pang Tong and focused on little Lu Xun.

When Li Yi went to Yangzhou to meet Yuan Shu, he visited Lu Kang on the way and met Lu Xun once. At that time, Li Yi felt that this little guy was carved in pink and jade, and he looked very likable. With a sense of harmony, especially today with Pang Tong as a comparison, Lu Xun's appearance is even more attractive.

What made Li Yi sigh was that Lu Xun was a bit different from other children. Lu Xun was not the lively kind, but seeing him now, Li Yi felt that Lu Xun seemed more dull than before. The previous conversations in the courtyard were mainly between Pang Tong and Huang Chengyan, but Lu Xun remained silent.

Lu Xun was not startled by Li Yi's appearance. On the contrary, he was very calm, put down the book in his hand, and respectfully saluted Li Yi: "Lu Xun has met Xianghou!"

Hearing Lu Xun's call to break Li Yi's identity, Pang Tong moved slightly and saluted again: "Pang Tong, pay homage to Marquis Xiang!"

"Okay, no need to be polite!"

Li Yi responded, then pushed open the wooden door beside the fence, and while striding in, he said with a hearty smile: "My father-in-law has good wine here, how about giving me a pot to quench my thirst."

Huang Chengyan stood up and said with a smile: "Of course there are good wines."

After a pause, Huang Chengyan said again: "Anyway, it's Yueying who came here filially, no matter how much Xianghou drinks, the old man won't feel bad, hahaha."

Li Yi was choked directly, he knew that Huang Chengyan was complaining for his daughter.

Li Yi coughed dryly, and quickly changed the subject: "I just heard the sound of arguing here, I don't know why?"

Huang Chengyan naturally knew the purpose of Li Yi's visit, so he didn't discuss any family matters with Li Yi, but pointed at Pang Tong and Lu Xun, and said with some dissatisfaction: "It's not because of them two."

It was a little far away from the fence before, but now that the distance is closer, Lu Kang's appearance hasn't changed much, but Pang Tong is extremely curious, his eyes keep moving, and he seems to want to take a closer look at Li Yi, but he is worried about being disrespectful and dare not Look directly at Li Yi.

Li Yi pulled Lu Xun to his side, patted his head, and asked, "How are you doing after arriving in Jingzhou? But if you have any difficulties, don't worry, if you are bullied, tell me, I will make the decision for you."

Li Yi looked at Lu Xun differently, although it was due to Lu Xun's own potential, but it was not just for Lu Xun. In fact, he took great care of the entire Lu family.

Don't look at Li Yi himself, although all he wants is rebellion, but his three views have not collapsed. For a loyal person like Lu Kang, he respects him very much in his heart, even if the two sides are not in the same position, but Li Yi is also willing to extend his hand to his descendants to let them live well. Li Yi thinks this is the treatment that Zhongliang should deserve afterward.

There are some things that children may not understand due to their age and experience, but they are very sensitive to people's benevolence and malice. Therefore, although Lu Xun only met Li Yi twice in total, he touched Li Yi with his big hands. When he was on the head, he still felt very kind, like a father, and then saw the tense expression on his little face gradually loosen, and shook his head lightly and said: "Thank you for your concern. After Lu Xun arrived in Jingzhou, he will have no worries about food and clothing. , Entering the academy, all the gentlemen treated me very well."

Huang Chengyan stroked his beard at the side, but Li Yi greeted them early in the morning and asked them to take care of Lu Xun, so naturally no one would embarrass a child and offend Li Yi.

Moreover, after getting in touch with Lu Xun later, Huang Chengyan fell in love with this little guy immediately, almost treating Lu Xun like his half son.

Li Yi nodded, and said again: "That's good, but you can't bully others because of your husband's favor, or I will punish you, you know?"

Lu Xun held his small fists and responded, "Lu Xun remember!"

Li Yi withdrew his hand on Lu Xun's head, looked at Pang Tong, and asked, "Are you Pang Tong?"

Pang Tong bowed and replied, "Student is right."

Taking advantage of this effort of lowering his head and raising his head, Pang Tong carefully looked at Li Yi's expression, and found that Li Yi did not show any similar disgust or even disgust on his face, and he was secretly relieved.

Pang Tong was quite aware of his appearance. If it wasn't because of the prestige of his family in Jingzhou, his appearance alone would be enough to stop him from becoming an official. Laugh at his ugly appearance.

Li Yi didn't know where he knew about him. He mentioned it to the Pang family several times and seemed to like him very much. He is also an ordinary person who judges people by their appearance.

Fortunately, there was nothing but joy in Li Yi's expression, which completely relieved Pang Tong's heart.

Li Yi looked at Pang Tonghui and asked, "Not long after I arrived in Jingzhou, I heard that you went on a trip. Why? Ordinary people should travel after the [-]th and [-]th. It's too early for you."

Pang Tong replied: "It's not that Pang Tong acted capriciously. It's because the books at home have been kept in mind, and there are no skills to teach to the teachers and teachers. Therefore, Pang Tong can only leave home."

Li Yi frowned a few times, and those who came with him, regardless of Wu, all looked at Pang Tong in surprise, because this guy spoke too arrogantly.

Li Yi himself doesn't like the kind of people who are too ostentatious. If someone else told him what he said just now, Li Yi would definitely give the other party a lower rating. However, since it was Pang Tong who spoke, this made Li Yi A lot of curiosity arose, and he asked, "So, your talent shouldn't be weaker than your uncle's?"

Li Yi's question is very tricky. As long as Pang Tong dares to nod, he will be served with sticks when he goes home.

However, although Pang Tong is not very old, his intelligence is far beyond ordinary people. How can such a small trap be difficult to trap?

I saw Pang Tong said seriously: "Pang Tong's talent and learning are not as good as uncle's eleven."

Li Yi shook his head and said: "No, no, you just said clearly that your teacher has no skills to teach, and now he can't say that your uncle is eleven. Isn't this contradictory?"

Pang Tong still looked calm, and said: "Pang Tong has read the books that uncle has read, and Pang Tong knows the truth that uncle knows. However, there are many things that uncle can understand instantly, but Pang Tong can't understand them."

"For example, when Marquis Xiang left Xiangyang, my uncle asserted that Marquis Xiang would be the lord of Jingzhou when he returned to Xiangyang next time."

"Later, when Yuan Shu attacked Jingzhou, my uncle said that after the Marquis Xiang took Jingzhou, he would go to Yangzhou within three or two years."

"Uncle has such a vision, but Pang Tong still doesn't understand the layout of the Marquis of Xiang, and the gap with his uncle is simply unreasonable."

Li Yi looked at Pang Tong, the interest in his eyes became more and more intense, and at the same time, there was a trace of strong regret. It is a pity, a pity that Pang Degong is such a resourceful man, but he is unwilling to become an official.

Pang Tong continued: "Uncle once said that ordinary people study in the same way that they go to the mountains to pick jade. When they find jade, they put it in their pockets and then feel complacent."

"But a true scholar not only needs to pick jade, but also needs to spend ten times more time polishing and carving the jade material. Only in this way can the beautiful jade shine."

"Pang Tong is not a jade picker, but he is not a scholar either. Although the jade has been picked, the jade has not been polished and cannot be seen by others. Therefore, Pang Tong decided to wander around and observe the customs and customs of various places. The people are suffering. , Look at the dangers of mountains and rivers, and the rapids of rivers, so as to polish yourself, and then read books, and then you can truly understand the difficulty of governing the people, and the danger of military affairs."

"Returning from this trip, Pang Tong asked himself that the knowledge in his heart has been ten times that of the past. However, there is no joy in his heart. Instead, he feels more and more insufficient. Compared with his uncle, the gap is even greater."

After Pang Tong finished speaking, the surrounding area was completely silent.

Huang Chengyan knew Pang Tong's strength long ago, so he let it go, but those who didn't know Pang Tong, such as Yu Fan and Zhang Xiu, were shocked from ear to ear.

They wondered before that no matter how smart a teenage boy is, he is only a child after all, how much talent can he learn, and is worthy of Li Yi's attention?

Especially after seeing Pang Tong's poor appearance, although he didn't show anything on the surface, he still felt that it was nothing more than that. However, Pang Tong's words directly made them look at each other with admiration. Li Yi valued Pang Tong, and he no longer dared to question it.

Li Yi looked at Pang Tong with a look of relief, and the love for talent in his eyes was almost overflowing.

Even just now, Li Yi thought that Pang Tong was not good-looking, but looking at it now, he felt that this was his characteristic, and he was born to be distinguished from ordinary people!

Li Yi took a deep breath, pointed to the seat opposite, and said, "Sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Marquis Xiang!"

Pang Tong sat down in response, and Li Yi also pulled Lu Xun to sit beside him.

Regarding Pang Tong's discovery just now, Li Yi did not comment directly, but asked, "I heard people say that you were caught by your cousin when you came to the academy, right?"

The corner of Pang Tong's mouth twitched, and he replied: "Pang Tong came back from his travels and realized something in his heart. He wanted to study the old books carefully, but my cousin was impatient and sent me directly to the academy."

Li Yi asked again: "Then what do you think of the academy, and how does it compare with your study at home?"

Pang Tong looked up at Li Yi and replied, "Although it's a bit of a pity, there will be no regrets after Mr. teaches you how to count easily!"

Li Yi laughed and said, "Okay, okay, very good!"

Li Yi was in a happy mood, and said "yes" in a row, then moved his gaze away from Pang Tong and put it on a chessboard.

This chessboard is not an ordinary chessboard. It is relatively large, and it outlines some terrain and water veins. Li Yi recognizes that it is used to deduce the military formation, which is the so-called paper talk.
