Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 156 Pang Shiyuan

I, Pang Tong, courtesy name Shiyuan, am from Xiangyang, Jingzhou.

My family is very rich, and we have so much land that we need the help of more than a dozen tenant farmers to cultivate it. My family is very poor, and we couldn't even afford books before the white paper came out.

I was ugly and could scare other children to tears since I was a child, but I was smart and had a photographic memory!
I have a very powerful clan uncle, Pang Degong.

When I was 14 years old, I looked at my face in the stream... Actually, I think I look pretty good, but I just lacked care. I would rather save time and go to study with my uncle.

After that, there was a ripple on the surface of the water, and a big fish that looked over ten kilograms, after a vigorous leap, floated up in front of me with its belly exposed...

Could this be because he's so... handsome?
I was very angry and wanted to grill the big fish and eat it.

However, when I cut open the belly of the fish, I found a bamboo scroll inside. I didn't recognize any of the characters on it, but I could still understand it.

Is this fish a book for me?
So I buried the fish and took the book home. Later...my uncle told me that this is called the Heavenly Book. There are nine volumes of such a powerful book!
Even my uncle can't understand this book, but I can, so I know that it is "Book of Heaven Volume Five: Reading".

Before I got the official seal, I learned my own unique strategies. For example, when reading, I can use my mind to multi-purpose; for example, I can use imagination to simulate the practical application of the knowledge in the book; for example... when watching some big movies When reading the manuscripts of sages, you may feel the will of the late sages...

When my uncle found out about it, he said that my strategy was very rare and could avoid "talking about war on paper", so he began to focus on teaching me the art of war. In the past four years, I have read thousands of books, half of which are my uncle's collection of art of war!
Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou, wanted to appoint me as a county meritorious officer, that is, as an assistant under the prefecture.

It was at this moment that I saw...

"Killing someone is like killing my father!"

Xian made it known that the man in the story was so majestic.

This...is Mr. Bai, right?If Bai Gongzhi had appeared earlier, maybe I would have read more books. Now many "poor people" who are in a similar situation to my family and don't have a good uncle can also read.

No one knows better than me how useful "books" are. From now on... the world will be very different!

After bidding farewell to my uncle, I came to Yangzhou. Instead of asking my uncle to give me a letter of recommendation, I went directly to the Naxian Hall. After scaring the scribes to tears, their director came out to test me personally.

Looking at my appearance, he seemed reluctant, but he still recommended me to the Ministry of Officials, and finally I was assigned to Zhou Yu's command.

Mizuro?Oh, that’s all!

I thought Zhou Gongjin would be able to discover my talent, but now it seems that this guy is just looking down on me because he looks better...

A few months have passed, and I haven't been given a chance to show off at all, and...it seems like I still don't like to see me?

Just yesterday, Zhou Yu was promoted to the governor of Poyang, and he did not ask me to accompany him. He just asked me to stay in Wan County.

He is obviously a guy with no eyesight. Could it be that Mr. Bai is like him, judging people by their appearance?
If this continues, I may be buried in Wan County... Should I go back to my uncle to ask for a letter of recommendation?It looks a bit embarrassing... Or should I make big news and attract Mr. Bai's attention?

Pang Tong was very confused, but at this moment, Yu Fan, as the Prime Minister of Poyang County, came to Pang Tong in person and informed him that Duke Bai was going to summon him at the General's Mansion. At the same time, Pang Tong's "files" had also been transferred to the General's Mansion.

Before leaving, Pang Tong made a special trip to see Zhou Yu.

"The next time we meet, I'll let you know that I'm just good-looking!" Pang Tong said unconvinced to Zhou Yu.

"Oh." Zhou Yu.white eyes.jpg.

……

Half a month later, Bai Tu met Pang Tong at the Chariot General's Mansion.

Bai Tu had already started to pay attention to Pang Tong right after he reported to the Naxian Hall.

Although it was a long time before Pang Tong became famous in history, but...the same name and surname, even the same name and place of origin, this is definitely not a coincidence!
This is the biggest fish that "willing people have taken the bait" since the opening of the Naxian Hall!

However, when Bai Tu saw his name, he found that he had been assigned to Zhou Yu's command, so while secretly saying "good fate", Bai Tu did not "break up" him and Zhou Yu.

Pang Tong is only 17 years old this year, and has not yet been praised by his uncle as "the crown of Nanzhou Scholars", and he has not reported his relationship with Pang Degong. Overall... he is still just a nobody.

Bai Tu firmly believed that no one was born with talent, so he didn't force Pang Tong to be transferred here. He still thought that Pang Tong would go to help Zhou Yu first, and study would be good.

Historically, Pang Tong first served as a minor official in Xiangyang, then defected to Sun Quan, and finally to Liu Bei, who valued him.

Although Zhou Yu in history failed to discover Pang Tong's potential and was actually abandoned by him, but... objectively it was because Zhou Yu died of illness not long after Pang Tong served under Zhou Yu and failed to discover his talents. It's understandable.

Bai Tu's previous praise of Zhou Yu's "magnificent temperament" to Hua Xin and Wang Lang is not nonsense. Whether it is Zhou Yu in history or Bai Tu's current third brother, they are actually very generous, and they are very generous to talents from grassroots backgrounds. They also all have a keen eye for recognizing talents and promoting them greatly.

Originally, Bai Tu thought that the two of them would get along happily and Pang Tong would not be buried.

As a result, after careful observation, I found that Pang Tong was having a miserable time under Zhou Yu. It was not that Zhou Yu made it difficult for him... Pang Tong hoped that Zhou Yu would make things difficult for him and give him some opportunities to show off. However, Zhou Yu treated him the same as he treated other ordinary petty officials. , never assigned any important tasks.

Whether Pang Tong wanted to make something happen, to attract attention, or to stand out and make Zhou Yu look at him differently, he had no chance.

This time Zhou Yu didn't even plan to take him to Poyang, but looked like he was going to stay idle in Wan County...

Therefore, Bai Tu stopped being polite and summoned Pang Tong directly.

"Tong, meet the lord!" Pang Tong came in and said to Bai Tu excitedly.

To a certain extent, Bai Tu was his idol, and... Bai Tu personally summoned Pang Tong when he was about to find his uncle through the back door.

Although Pang Tong didn't understand why he was discovered by "Bo Le" when he clearly had no chance to show off...

"Shi Yuan is free, hahaha, I noticed your name when I saw your name in the Naxian Pavilion before... Your uncle is Duke Pound, right?" Bai Tu asked.

In fact, even without asking, Bai Tu could be sure that this was definitely the Pang Tong he was familiar with!
Ugly, with very flamboyant features and bright eyes, but they are only as big as a pea. On a rainy day, I am afraid that I will choke on water if I raise my head. My lips look like they have just been chewed by a gorilla. When I open my mouth, I can still reveal gaping teeth. A pair of... The eyebrows that failed to be tattooed are like performing some kind of peerless knife skills...

But... Pang Tong's definition of himself seems to be very problematic. He is meticulous in his dressing up. He is actually wearing a green shirt and his hair style is very elegant. If you look at the back, he can easily be regarded as a handsome man!
Of course, Bai Tu doesn't care whether he is ugly or not, but he cares more about Pang Tong's current abilities... Could it be that he was inspired by his own personality charm before he even finished his studies?

Otherwise, how could Zhou Yu despise him so much?
