For Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, they are facing a very serious problem.

Singing or something...... It's not that I can't sing, but I can't control the tune at all!

Especially what kind of howl and the like, Zhuge Liang felt that as long as he was facing the empty and uninhabited mountains and forests recently, when he wanted to let out a long howl, he always opened his mouth and roared out the tune that Su Yunqing named worried.

…… It's really apprehensive to think about it_(:3ゝ∠)_

But if you want to say no, it doesn't seem to be good, people are warmly invited, if you don't go, you don't give face, everyone's friendship is just like that, if you still don't give face, it's obvious who you want to make enemies.

Pang Tong thought for a while, and asked Zhuge Liang in a low voice, "Kong Ming, how are you drinking?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhuge Liang immediately understood what Pang Tong meant, and he also replied in a low voice: "Shang Ke." ”

said that it was okay, but the confidence revealed in Zhuge Liang's eyes showed that his alcohol consumption would never be too bad.

It's good to talk to smart people, Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang have already understood each other's intentions with just one look.

If you can't sing it, if you're afraid that something will happen, then don't sing it.

Anyway, singing is not the point, I'm afraid this group of people will talk a little more about the world's major events when they get together, and then they will just talk and drink, and when they want to play, it's time to sing, just pretend to be drunk.

Either way, you're embarrassed to get someone who is already drunk on the table to get up and sing, right?

The plan is actually quite good, and things are going very well.

Most of these students have not yet come out, so they are relatively simple, and naturally they can't compare with Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, who have spent a lot of time in the officialdom of Bingzhou, but this is not to say that these people are not valuable, on the contrary, the value of these people is still very great.

Although there is a saying that the poor are rich and rich, considering how precious books and knowledge are in this era, they can not work and produce for a living at such an old age, but continue to stay in the academy to study, and go out to study from time to time, it can be seen that the situation of these students' families is not bad, otherwise they would have to find a way to make a living early, how can they be so leisurely.

The family situation is different, the people you can contact are naturally different, and these students have great ambitions to make a career, so they pay special attention to many things.

If there is any major event in Jingzhou recently, it is naturally that Liu Biao's health is not good, but Liu Biao is hesitant on the issue of heir, so that Jingzhou has not had a reasonable principal.

Because Liu Biao's attitude was unclear, this made Jingzhou's shape more chaotic and the struggle became more and more intense.

However, according to the observations of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, although Liu Biao also has a few sons, there are actually two people who are really competitive, one is the eldest son Liu Qi, and the other is the second son Liu Cong.

Zhuge Liang drank a glass of wine with a humble face, and then said casually: "With such fierce competition, it seems that the two sons are both talented, and they are equal." ”

As soon as these words came out, a student wearing a green scarf sneered: "Where did you come from a momentary talent, let alone two, one of them deserves the word talent, and the current situation will not be like this." ”

To put it bluntly, Liu Biao's two sons are currently inseparable, not because both of them have a high IQ and high rank, but actually because they are both two wars and five scum.

However, no one objected to what he said, because this was really too obvious a thing, so even if it was really disrespectful to Liu Biao as a pastor of Jingzhou, no one said anything about him, in fact, everyone agreed with this statement.

Do you know what Liu Biao's two sons have done in the face of the current situation? In fact, these two people did nothing, or it can't be said that they didn't do anything, it should be said that they didn't do anything useful.

In the face of this situation, is it time to engage in internal division and tearing? Isn't that stupid!

No matter how hard you tear it internally, there is a use for eggs, not to mention that the brothers are fighting, I am afraid that Liu Biao's heart is not comfortable, it can be said that the more Liu Qi and Liu Cong fight, the more Liu Biao is actually worried about passing the position to them.

Without him, these two people are looking at the problem from the perspective of their opponents, but Liu Biao is looking at the problem from the perspective of his father, Liu Biao is the pastor of Jingzhou, but he is also a father, of course he hopes that his sons can be well after his death, but now that the brothers are tearing each other apart, can Liu Biao rest assured that he will choose the heir?

It is estimated that Liu Biaoxi is worried in his heart that once he dies, one of his sons will kill the other!

So, the internal struggle egg is useless.

What's more, it is said that the two sons are fighting, but in fact it is the interest groups behind them that are fighting, and the more fierce the fight at this time, the deeper the offense will be to the other party, no matter who controls Jingzhou in the future, I am afraid that Jingzhou will have to collapse in half.

In fact, the smartest thing to do is not to highlight oneself with internal struggle, or to say that internal struggle is absolutely unavoidable, and to be a quiet white lotus internally.

Smart people should know that it is not only Liu Biao who can really decide the heir of Jingzhou at this time, Liu Biao only has half of the decision-making power in his hands, and the other half is with Su Yunqing and Liu Bei.

For example, if Liu Biao sets the heir as Liu Cong, but Su Yunqing does not agree, or Su Yunqing is resolutely opposed and intends to support Liu Qi, then Su Yunqing really can't do such a thing? Of course she can do it, because the imperial court is currently in her hands, even if Liu Biao decides the next candidate for the Jingzhou pastor, it will be necessary to write to the imperial court to obtain consent.

But everyone knows that Su Yunqing's attitude is the attitude of the imperial court, Su Yunqing disagrees, this Jingzhou pastor is illegal, and Liu Biao is not easy to speak.

In this era, the main thing is to look at the fist, Jingzhou's fist is not as good as Su Yunqing, so there is no ability to get rid of Su Yunqing's self-reliance, at least they can't publicly slap Su Yunqing's face, otherwise this feud will be bigger.

Besides, who is Su Yunqing? If you have her support, are you still worried that you can't be a Jingzhou pastor?

As for Liu Bei, as the prince closest to Jingzhou and not weak, Liu Bei's attitude naturally has to be taken care of, if he can get Liu Bei's support, he is actually no worse than Su Yunqing.

Purely in terms of strength comparison, Su Yunqing is indeed stronger than Liu Bei, but one thing that cannot be ignored is that although Su Yunqing represents the imperial court, she is far water, and it naturally takes effort to quench the thirst of far water, Liu Bei is different, he is leaning next to Jingzhou, no matter who is in Jingzhou, he has to deal with Liu Bei, so if there is Liu Bei's support, it will naturally be different.

Although Liu Bei is a threat to Jingzhou, this does not mean that Liu Bei's strength cannot be used.

Therefore, what needs to be fought for internally is Liu Biao, and what needs to be fought for externally is Su Yunqing and Liu Bei, as for those Dashi clans in Jingzhou, they each have their own interests, and it is not easy to unify them as a son with no real power, so just maintain a good relationship with them, and it is not necessarily a friend or foe to tear up, because once there is the support of Su Yunqing and Liu Bei, and Liu Biao feels at ease, then the position will not be able to run.

As long as they have the support of the powerful faction and become the candidates for the next Jingzhou pastor, then these big families in Jingzhou are not stupid, and they can't get along with their future bosses, and they don't even need to do anything at this time, they will naturally turn upside down.

However, Liu Biao's two sons are completely contrary to this strategy, they rely on the strength of their big family to tear apart their opponents, as for what Su Yunqing and Liu Bei...... What's that? No empty tubes!

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong chatted with this group of students for a long time, and they generally figured out a lot of things, such as the personality and style of Liu Biao's two sons, as well as who supported them behind them, and what is the relationship between these people......

Seeing that the intelligence set was almost over, Zhuge Liang gave Pang Tong a look, and immediately began to pretend to be drunk, and he was about to drill under the table in a daze.

Pang Tong understood in seconds, and when everyone made fun of Zhuge Liang's bad drinking, he looked like he was protecting Zhuge Liang and drank a few glasses of wine with several people in a row, and then began to pretend to be confused.

When Zhuge Liang completely fell under the small table and fell asleep on the mat he was sitting on, Pang Tong also fell asleep on the small table in an indecent posture.

Everyone looked at it, and they all drank it.

Looking at the two civil officials of Bingzhou who were drunk, this group of students couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh: "Shiyuan Kongming's insight and character are extraordinary, but it's a pity that the amount of alcohol is too bad, doesn't it mean that the people in Bingzhou are close to the border, so most people can drink it?" Why have these two people been in Bingzhou for so many years, but the amount of alcohol is so poor, could it be that in fact, how many heroes are in Bingzhou are rumors? ”

This argument was very much agreed with by everyone, so everyone laughed at it together, and the fierce and bold frontier people were not as good as them as southern scholars or something......

"What are you talking about? Who can't drink anymore! ”

Dian Wei, who was notified by the little scholar who was guarding next to him to come to pick up people, heard someone laughing at him as soon as he came, and he was immediately unhappy.

In Dian Wei's view, Bingzhou is the most beautiful place in the whole Han Dynasty, the lord is very good, the civil officials are very good, the generals are very good, the soldiers are very good, and the people are also very good, in short, everywhere is good, Dian Wei will not say anything beautiful, and he doesn't know how to praise, but in short, it is good!

Dian Wei is a real person, he thinks it's good that he can't tolerate others to ridicule him like this, and where is he girly?

Dian Wei stared at the group of weak scholars in front of him, thinking about his own father-in-law, thinking about the little sister of the Sun family, and the girls in Bingzhou all look more gentlemanly than you!

was looked at by Dian Wei like this, and a scholar immediately spoke: "Why not?" Do you see that these two people are still from the state, aren't they the same after a few drinks and then poured? Not at all fun. ”

Dian Wei felt that what he said was wrong, but he was stupid and didn't know how to refute it, but he also knew that Pang Tong Zhuge Liang was a very good boy, and he liked them a lot, even if he didn't know how to refute it, he knew that he wanted to defend his friends.

Thinking of this, Dian Wei immediately said: "What is there to say, you have the ability to drink with me!" ”

As he spoke, he didn't need others to nod, so he went to open a jar of wine and slapped it directly on the table: "Come on!" I don't want any small cups, just drink like that! ”

Dian Wei's approach immediately calmed down everyone present, but these students are also arrogant, aren't they just drinking? Are so many of them still afraid of Dian Wei?

Not much to say, the two sides directly began to fight for wine, and finally drank the wine they brought, and asked people to go back to get it, and waited until the sunset Xishan This meal was finished, and at this time, except for Dian Wei, everyone else in the field basically drank down.

Dian Wei wiped his mouth: "Hmph, at your level, you dare to talk about the amount of alcohol, I really can't do it when I don't live in the state!" ”

Saying this, Dian Wei added: "I also said that Shi Yuan and Kong Ming, I don't think you are as good as women, but my lord is the one who can drink me down, that is the real man and pure man!" ”

While mocking this group of drunken scholars, Dian Wei picked up Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang one by one: "Alas, I said you two, don't drink if you can't drink, why don't you bring me with you if you want to drink, you have a lot of civil and official affairs, and you may have a headache when you go back." ”

Complaining like this, but Dian Wei's movements were still very careful, trying not to make Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang uncomfortable.

Who knew that at this time, Zhuge Liang, who originally looked very drunk, opened his eyes: "...... Don't talk about it, I'm not drunk. ”

Dian Wei was stunned: "Huh? Not drunk? Kong Ming boy, are you a liar? ”

Zhuge Liang waved his hand: "I'm not drunk, I don't believe you put me down, I'll take a few steps to show you, and make sure to be steady." ”

Zhuge Liang knew Dian Wei's temper, so he didn't care about his words, but just proved to Dian Wei that he was not drunk, and then explained to Dian Wei that this was actually planned by him and Pang Tong.

"Huh? Planned? Dian Wei was still holding Pang Tong in one hand, and scratched his head with the other: "Then why don't you tell me, I really thought you were drunk and wanted to give you anger." ”

As he spoke, Dian Wei asked again, "Then, what I just did didn't cause you trouble, did I?" ”

Dian Wei is afraid that these smart people have any plans, if they are accidentally destroyed by him, it will be bad, and if it is not good, it will delay the affairs of the lord, then his sin will be great.

Zhuge Liang waved his hand: "It's not a big deal, by the way, Shiyuan, we've all gone so far, don't pretend, it's time to wake up." ”

Pang Tong: "......"

Seeing that Pang Tong had no reaction, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but pat Pang Tong: "Shi Yuan, Shi Yuan wake up, we are far away, no need to pretend to ......"

"Oh, boy Kong Ming, don't scream, Shi Yuan is asleep."

Zhuge Liang: "......"

Oh yes, Pang Tong drank a lot more than him, and then he pretended to be asleep, but it was actually quite normal to close his eyes and lie on his stomach for so long and accidentally really fell asleep_(:3ゝ∠)_

After roughly figuring out the situation in Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong officially visited Sima Hui the next day.

Of course, this official visit was made in the capacity of the envoy of the state, which was completely different from the nature of the previous private visit.

In the face of Sima Hui, it was Pang Tong, a student many years ago, who spoke as a representative, after all, the relationship was closer, and Sima Hui trusted him more.

Pang Tong first said that although he came here for the heir issue of Jingzhou, it was really Jingzhou that was too chaotic, and the court hoped that Jingzhou could continue to be as it was when Liu Biao was in charge.

Everyone understands this big truth, and there is no need to say it again, but Pang Tong just said it.

Later, he told Sima Hui that Bingzhou had no ambitions for Jingzhou, but just hoped that Jingzhou could elect a benevolent and virtuous master.

This Pang Tong is not a lie, and no one in the state, including Su Yunqing, wants Jingzhou to be a useless straw bag, after all, this person will be Su Yunqing's key support object in the next few years, and he and Liu Bei are expected to tear him up, if it is a pig teammate with too poor ability, then it is not Liu Bei who is pitted but Su Yunqing himself.

Of course, if you want to say that if the new owner of the state is too virtuous, won't it be bad for Su Yunqing to go south in the future?

In fact, the reason is also simple, Liu Biao's sons are completely short-cut generals, and Liu Biao can't stop Su Yunqing from going south when he is there, not to mention that they are not as good as Liu Biao.

What Su Yunqing wants is a person who has a bit of a brain, and will not pig teammates drag his feet to tear up with Liu Bei with her support, look, the premise for Jingzhou to tear up with Liu Bei is with Su Yunqing's support, on the one hand, this gives Su Yunqing time to slowly infiltrate Jingzhou, on the other hand, in fact, without Su Yunqing's support, Jingzhou can't jump for long.

Because of such confidence and premise, Pang Tong pretended to be a white lotus in front of Sima Hui, looking like he was thinking about Jingzhou, of course, from the facts, choosing a virtuous heir for Jingzhou is indeed for Jingzhou's consideration, and you can't say that Pang Tong is hypocritical, this is his purpose.

Pang Tong is really good at boiling chicken soup and selling Amway, and although his own image is not very good, he has a deep understanding of the essence of the white lotus, and soon Sima Hui was moved by him.

Sima Hui thought for a while and asked, "Then I don't know which prince the prime minister is more optimistic about?" ”

Pang Tongyi smiled: "The two sons are both handsome for a while, the eldest son is benevolent and intelligent, and the second son is innocent and kind, no matter who you choose, it is good." ”

Pang Tong didn't say who to choose, but the meaning of his words was already there.

The second son's innocence and kindness are naturally good, but such an evaluation is too bad for the lord of a state, in contrast, although the evaluation of the eldest prince Liu Qi's benevolence and wisdom is a panacea, it is not a bad word, at least not as a shortcoming, compared with the two, how could Sima Hui not understand the meaning of Pang Tong?

However, Sima Hui didn't say anything, because he himself was also such a bias, and he also felt that his eldest son Liu Qi was better.

Let's talk about the background without talking about the character, Liu Qi is both the eldest son and the son-in-law, and there is nothing to criticize compared to the other younger brothers, obviously, whether it is the inheritance of the eldest son or the inheritance of the son-in-law Liu Qi is occupied, except, Liu Qi is not as good as Liu Cong likes Liu Biao.

And about this, Sima Hui thought about it and gave Pang Tong an idea, asking him to find Huang Chengyan, Huang Chengyan is also a friend of Sima Hui, married a woman from the Cai clan as his wife, and is the sister of Cai Mao, the general of Jingzhou today, who is very trusted by Liu Biao, and holds the military power of Jingzhou.

On the other hand, Liu Biao's current wife, Cai Liu Biao, also listens to her very much, and Cai is Cai Mao's second sister and Huang Chengyan's wife's sister.

Sima Hui himself doesn't care much about these things, so although he thinks Liu Qi is good, he doesn't interfere, and at this time, Pang Tong wants to support Liu Qi, so he simply gave such an idea.

The reason why Liu Cong can become a strong competitor for Liu Qi is because Liu Cong is liked by Cai's family, and Liu Biao listens to Cai's family, and it is inevitable that he will prefer Liu Cong when he listens more.

As for Cai's support for Liu Cong or something, that's all something Pang Tong needs to consider, and Sima Hui doesn't care.

Of course, Pang Tong didn't think that Sima Hui's move was irresponsible, Sima Hui had already pointed out the key to the problem for him, and that was enough, he didn't want to do something and Sima Hui had to pave the way for him step by step.

So Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong cleaned up, and soon went to visit Huang Chengyan, this time, considering the image of Pang Tong, Huang Chengyan and Pang Tong are not so familiar, so simply Zhuge Liang is the mainstay, and Pang Tong just built a bridge in the name of Sima Hui and Pang Degong.

This is enough, Zhuge Liang naturally has the ability to persuade Huang Chengyan, Huang Chengyan and Sima Hui are actually similar, they are not out of office, but they are also concerned about the world's major affairs, and now Zhuge Liang has come to reason with him, explain the difference between Liu Qi and Liu Cong, and must have hinted that if Liu Qi inherits, then the future Jingzhou must be as stable as Mount Tai, but if it is Liu Cong, it will have to be said otherwise......

is still the same sentence, it is very easy to talk to smart people, Zhuge Liang is just a few hints that are not salty, Huang Chengyan has already understood the meaning, plus Zhuge Liang has also said a lot before, and said that in fact, Sima Hui is also optimistic about Liu Qi, so Huang Chengyan was also shaken.

Once Huang Chengyan firmly supports Liu Qi, then as Huang Chengyan's wife, the eldest daughter of the Cai family should naturally influence the family.

And as long as there is disagreement within the Cai family, then the support they can provide to Liu Cong is limited.

The next thing is to get Cai Mao and Liu Biao, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong both know that in fact, Liu Biao's wife can be left alone, because her eldest sister's attitude is clear, and Cai Mao, who is a younger brother and controls real power, also expressed her position, and Liu Biao's wife had to change her attitude.

So after doing enough foreshadowing, Zhuge Liang got the opportunity to meet Liu Biao as an envoy of the court through the relationship of his uncle.

Not long after, Su Yunqing received a message from Pang Tong in Bingzhou, telling her that the matter in Jingzhou was almost done.

Pang Tong said a lot of things about them in Jingzhou in the letter, and when he was there, he also mentioned Zhuge Liang along the way, for example, although Zhuge Liang did encounter some bad things (such as singing) during this trip to Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang would never complain about Su Yunqing because of this, because he gained love.

…… Yes, love was harvested.

Su Yunqing: "......"

Should it be said that it is worthy of Zhuge Liang? Work □□ love is not wrong!

Thinking like this, Su Yunqing told Zhou Yu, who had just come over, about this by the way, and said it with a look of disgust: "Look at what level Kong Ming is, look at you again, alas, you have to let me leave it for so long when you fell in love before, it's really worrying." ”

Look at Zhuge Liang again, he is working, and he talked about love by the way.

Zhou Yu: "...... Lord, I'm going to work overtime. ”

Isn't it just overtime? He just adds it! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

Su Yunqing was immediately satisfied: "It's not good to work overtime or something, but since Gongjin is so hearted, I can't refuse, come, Zhaoji, give Gongjin the pile of bamboo slips that Zhongde sent over before." ”

Zhou Yu: "......"

Why do you feel that your own lord is becoming more and more unreliable_(:3ゝ∠)_
