Northwest of Xiangyang, Wollongong.

Inside the thatched cottage.

Zhuge Ling, dressed in plain clothes, is leaning on the railing, doing needlework.

"Liu Xuande was really powerful. He crossed the Han River in a blink of an eye. Liu Jingsheng was so frightened that he fled. He captured Xiangyang City so easily."

"Ah Liang and Yuan Zhi have been discussing the new savage named Deng Mu recently. Is he really that great?"

"The change of ownership in Xiangyang has not been peaceful recently. I asked A Liang not to go out, but he refused to listen. I don’t know where he went again..."

Zhuge Ling murmured to herself, looking absent-minded.

Not long ago, Zhuge After Xuan died of illness, the siblings buried their uncle. However, there was a drastic change in Xiangyang and Liu Biao was defeated.

All kinds of changes made Zhuge Ling feel uneasy in her heart.

When she was in a trance, the sound of carriages and horses rang out, and there was a noise outside the hospital..

Zhuge Ling raised her head and looked out the window, and her face changed color slightly.

Outside the thatched cottage, she saw a carriage parked at some point, surrounded by dozens of soldiers wearing armor and holding swords.

This formation made Zhuge Ling tense up. Tensing up.

After calming down for a while, Zhuge Ling hurriedly started sewing and walked out of the thatched cottage with trepidation.

The firewood door was pushed open.

A handsome and elegant young man in a green shirt walked lightly into the hall.

"I wonder why this young master came to visit?"

Zhuge Ling bowed and asked cautiously.

The young master bowed his hands and said calmly:

"Your Excellency, Deng Mu, has come especially to pay a visit to Zhuge Kongming. Why don't you stay in your mansion if you don't have other people?"

Deng Mu!

This thunderous name instantly made Zhuge Ling tremble.

"Deng...Deng Mu?"

"You are Liu Xuande's"797" military advisor, Deng...Deng Ziyu? Zhuge

Ling's voice trembled, and she looked at the stranger in front of her with surprised eyes.

Deng Mu smiled and nodded slightly:"That's right.""

Zhuge Ling took a breath and froze in place.

She never expected in her dreams that the man in front of her was the legendary Deng Mu!

Those younger brothers Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu, they had been talking about it all day , the strange man who they admired so much?

The scheming man who single-handedly helped Liu Bei cross the Han River and seize Xiangyang?

The one who made her younger brother, who was better than a pipe musician, fascinated by him and worshiped him Master Niannian's unparalleled genius?

At this moment.

Such a legendary and strange man actually came to their Zhuge family and stood in front of him alive?

Zhuge Ling was so excited, her heart was beating wildly, and she was in a trance. Thought I was in a dream

"May I ask what the relationship between this young lady’s name and Zhuge Kongming is?"

A voice that made people feel like spring breeze interrupted Zhuge Ling's trance.

Zhuge Ling was shaken, and then she came back to her senses. She was busy and said:

"The daughter of the people Zhuge Ling, Zhuge Liang is the younger brother of the daughter of the people."

It turned out to be Zhuge Liang's sister.

Deng Mu searched his memory and vaguely remembered that Zhuge Liang did have a sister, who seemed to be married to Kuai Kui.

This sister should be the Zhuge Ling in front of her.

But Kuai Kui, who was supposed to be her husband, did not If I remember wrongly, I think he was stabbed by Gan Ning.…

"It turned out to be Miss Zhuge."

Deng Mu nodded in greeting and asked again:

"I have admired my brother Gao Cai for a long time and came here specially to visit me. I wonder if Kong Ming is here?"

"That's really unfortunate. Kong Ming went out early in the morning and might not come back until afternoon. Zhuge

Ling hurriedly replied with an apologetic look on her face.

But she suddenly became uneasy, wondering why people like Deng Mu suddenly came to pay a visit to her younger brother inexplicably.

Although her younger brother is extremely talented, he is a foreigner after all. He was not famous among the scholars in Jingzhou.

Moreover, Zhuge Liang was only a fifteen-year-old boy at this time. To put it bluntly, he was still young.

And what was Deng Mu's identity?

But Liu Bei, the new Xiangyang The leader of the army, the most relied-upon planner and military advisor.

A person with such a disparity in status suddenly came to visit his younger brother without any warning?

This makes no sense!

Hearing that Zhuge Liang was not there, Deng Mu said:

"It's not easy for me to come here. I wonder if I can go in for a cup of tea and wait for your brother?"

Zhuge Ling was startled. She didn't expect that Military Advisor Deng would be so persistent in wanting to see her brother, and she felt increasingly uneasy.

But she didn't dare to refuse, so she had to force a smile and say:

"The fact that Military Advisor Deng can come to this humble abode will naturally add to the splendor of my Zhuge family, and it is something that a daughter of the people can only dream of."

"It's just that the thatched cottage is simple and crude, and I'm afraid that Military Advisor Deng won't be used to it."

Deng Mu disagreed and said with a faint smile:

"That's okay, I also come from a poor family, and the few shabby rooms at home are similar to your thatched cottage."

Deng Mu said that without waiting for her to agree, he walked in carelessly.

Zhou Cang led a group of personal guards to surround the thatched cottage.

Deng Ai followed in and waited on the side.

Zhuge Ling had no choice but to follow in. , hurriedly served tea and water, and offered snacks to show the friendship of the landlord.

"Well, this tea tastes pure and fragrant, good tea!"

"This sweet-scented osmanthus cake is sweet but not greasy and delicious."

Deng Mu was full of praise, but he was not polite and started eating and drinking openly.

"This is what the women of the country make in their own free time. If Military Advisor Deng likes it, the women of the country will bring some more. Zhuge

Ling hurriedly served a few more dishes of snacks, all of which were exquisite delicacies.

Deng Mu ate them with gusto and praised:

"Miss Zhuge is really good at craftsmanship, and these snacks are very suitable to my taste."

Being praised by people like Deng Mu, Zhuge Ling secretly rejoiced and blurted out:

"If you like it, Commander Deng, I can do it for you every day.——"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhuge Ling suddenly realized that something was wrong.

What does it mean to do it for others every day?

Do you think you are Deng Mu's wife and concubine, who are qualified to get along with each other day and night and make snacks for others every day...

Zhuge Ling knew that she had made a mistake, and her face suddenly became slightly dizzy. She lowered her head and coughed a few times to cover up the feeling. Ashamed.

Deng Mu didn't pay attention to her emotional changes. He was immersed in her craftsmanship and ate a big meal until he was full.

It was mid-afternoon. After eating and drinking enough, I couldn't help but doze off.

Seeing that Zhuge Liang hadn't arrived yet, Deng Mu yawned and said:

"Miss Zhuge, I'm tired now. Would you mind if I could use your thatched cottage to lie down for a while?"

"ah?"

Zhuge Ling couldn't help but be stunned.

This Military Advisor Deng didn't have enough to eat and drink, so he wanted to sleep in his own home.

This is too disrespectful to treat him as an outsider...

Zhuge Ling muttered to herself, but she didn't dare to refuse, Just forced a smile:

"If Military Advisor Deng is tired, he can do whatever he wants"

"That would be annoying."

Deng Mu stretched out his body and lay down on the bamboo couch.

After a while, he snored slightly and fell asleep.

Zhuge Ling did not dare to disturb Deng Mu's sweet dream, so she had to He stepped back outside the thatched cottage.

"What is so special about this Zhuge Liang that his brother actually came to visit him personally?"

"I'm still eating and drinking at someone's house, and now I'm sleeping..."

Deng Ai on the side muttered, full of doubts and confusion, but he had no choice but to wait by the side.

Of course Deng Ai wouldn't know, What a great talent his brother came to see.

Zhuge Kongming.

Wolong!

In the original history, he assisted Liu Bei and was the first contributor to the establishment of the Shu Han Empire! He left Qishan in six months, went to the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, dedicated his whole life to the old Liu family, and died. Later, he became a virtuous prime minister who has been praised throughout the ages. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

In a sense, Deng Mu actually replaced Zhuge Liang.

He had absolute confidence that he would be the best in this world. In terms of position, he will do better than Zhuge Liang.

But this does not mean that Lao Liu does not need Zhuge Liang.

With such a talent of Xiao He and half Zhang Liang level Wang Zuo, he recruited him to be his right-hand man , wouldn't it be nice for him to share some red tape and trivial matters for himself...

After all, his original intention of assisting Lao Liu was just to find a man who could not only be a highly respected minister, but also retire smoothly and enjoy life, instead of working hard like Zhuge Liang. He died of exhaustion at his desk.

And Zhuge Liang was a well-known model worker. He wished that one person could take over all the government affairs of the Shu Han Dynasty.

Deng Mu thought about it and simply recruited Zhuge Liang out of the mountain in advance and left Lao Liu to his own. All the hard work was handed over to Zhuge Liang.

Unknowingly, it was almost dusk.

Zhuge Ling in the courtyard was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. She looked inside the thatched cottage and outside the courtyard.

"What time has it been? Why hasn’t A Liang come back yet?"

"And this Military Advisor Deng, why has he stayed awake for so long? Could it be that if A Liang doesn't come back tonight, he will have to stay here for the night..."

Just when he was anxious, the sound of wheels sounded.

Zhuge Liang was driving a donkey cart, squeaking He squeaked back to the thatched cottage.

Zhuge Liang couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the soldiers surrounding him.

"Who are you? Get back quickly!"

Zhou Cang stepped forward and was about to shout Zhuge Liang back.....

Zhuge Ling hurriedly stepped forward and said:"General, this is my brother Zhuge Kongming. He is the person your military advisor Deng wants to see."

Zhou Cang looked up and down, then let Zhuge Liang in, and he Follow closely behind and be alert at all times

"Sister, what’s going on with these people?"

"Also, who is that Military Advisor Deng you are talking about?"

Zhuge Liang looked suspicious and asked in a low voice.

Zhuge Ling took him into the yard and told him all the causes and consequences.

Zhuge Liang suddenly changed his face and said in surprise:

"Sister, are you telling me that Liu Xuande’s military advisor Deng Ziyu actually came to visit me? Zhuge

Ling nodded heavily and said with a wry smile:

"I was really surprised when I learned about his identity earlier."

"Who is this Deng Ziyu? How could he suddenly come to visit you, A Liang? It really makes no sense."

Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed, and he couldn't figure out the mystery.

So he temporarily suppressed his surprise and asked where Deng Mu was so that he could meet him.

"Still in there~~"

Zhuge Ling pursed her lips towards the thatched cottage.

Zhuge Liang was stunned, and looked inside, and saw Military Advisor Deng, sleeping soundly on the bamboo couch.

"This Deng Ziyu, he...he even slept in our thatched cottage?"

Zhuge Liang looked at his sister in disbelief.

"Not only did he sleep at our house, he also ate and drank without being polite at all..."

Zhuge Ling said helplessly.

Zhuge Liang took a deep breath, and deep surprise and suspicion filled his eyes.

He I really don’t understand what motives this rumored strange man had to come to this remote place and condescend to pay a visit to such an inconspicuous person like himself.

"That’s all. It’s a blessing, not a curse. It’s a curse that cannot be avoided."

"I'm going to meet this mysterious and scheming man, and I'll find out once I ask him."

Zhuge Liang took a deep breath, bowed his clothes, and stepped into the thatched cottage.

"I, Zhuge Liang, didn’t know that Commander Deng was coming, so I couldn’t welcome him in person. Please forgive me for not being able to welcome Commander Deng in person!"

Zhuge Liang bowed and confessed to Deng Mu in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

On the bamboo couch,

Deng Mu just turned over, but he was still asleep.

When Zhuge Liang saw this, he had to raise his voice and bowed his hands again:

"I, Zhuge Liang, have met Military Advisor Deng."

Deng Mu turned over again, but still didn't wake up.

Zhuge Liang felt a little embarrassed, swallowed his saliva, and wanted to speak again.

Deng Ai beside him couldn't stand it anymore, and he quickly winked, signaling Zhuge Liang to stop yelling. In order not to disturb Deng Mu's dream,

Zhuge Liang had to swallow his words.

Seeing that Deng Mu was sleeping unconsciously, he could not make a sound or not.

In desperation, he could only stand on the bamboo couch. In front of him, he waited for Deng Mu to wake up.

In the blink of an eye, 1.8 tea time passed by.

Zhuge Liang stood more and more uncomfortable, and his face gradually became embarrassed.

But he was completely unaware that Deng Mu, who had his back turned to him, was raising a secret smile at the corner of his mouth..

Deng Mu actually learned this move from Zhuge Liang.

When Old Liu San visited the thatched cottage, Zhuge Liang also pretended to sleep and left Old Liu and his brothers to stay outside for half the night.

The purpose of this was to test Old Liu's sincerity. , Secondly, it is also to ensure his status after coming out of the mountain.

After all, the things you have waited so hard to get are more precious and the more you will cherish them...

Deng Mu"learned from history" and used Zhuge Liang's little trick, and in turn The routine is about Zhuge Liang.

He wants to turn away from the guests and let Zhuge Liang become the one who asks for a meeting.

The purpose is naturally the same as when he used the trick on Lao Liu, to make Zhuge Liang beg him to recommend him to Lao Liu so that he can devote himself to Lao Liu.

Calculating that the time is almost there.

Deng Mu yawned, stretched, and sat up lazily.

By the way, he recited a poem:

"Who will wake up first from the big dream? I know myself all my life"

"I have had enough sleep in the spring in the thatched cottage, and the sun is getting late outside the window!"

As soon as the poem was recited,

Deng Ai couldn't help but be stunned. He thought to himself, brother, what's going on with you? Why don't you wake up from sleep and recite a poem first?

Deng Ai was just confused.

Zhuge Liang was shocked. His face changed drastically.

The poem"Liang Father's Song" that Deng Mu recited was exactly what he did. It was a special poem for waking up from bed.

Very few people know this poem, only a few family members and friends.

This How did Military Advisor Deng know this?

Looking at this strange man with a lazy face in front of him, Zhuge Liang had deep curiosity on his face.
