Chapter 590: The Controversy Caused by a Cup of Wine
Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang's eyes kept looking at each other, which made Cui Jun and the three of them feel very strange.
"Zhou Ping, why did this friend of yours and Kong Ming look at each other for so long. Do they know? Meng Jian asked Cui Jun.
"It's impossible, it's the first time Zhong Da has gone south to Nanyang, and he just heard me talk about Kong Ming." Cui Jun replied.
Shi Tao said: "Let's intervene, I don't know how long they will look at each other if this continues." ”
Cui Jun and Meng Jian felt that it made sense, and when they were passing, they saw Zhuge Liang arch his hand with a smile and said, "Under Zhuge Zhuge Kongming." ”
"Sima Yi Sima Zhongda." Sima Yi returned the salute.
Cui Jun and the three of them happened to come to the two of them, and Cui Jun smiled and said: "Everyone, let me introduce you, this is my colleague and friend in the Military Aircraft Department, Sima Zhongda of Hanoi." Zhong Da is the first person to learn among the younger generation under my lord's command. ”
"The first person to learn?!" Zhuge Liang's eyes lit up, and the guy in front of him turned out to be a hidden person.
"Zhou Ping, don't talk nonsense." Sima Yi glanced at Cui Jun, although what Cui Jun said was the truth, but saying it now would cause anger.
Sure enough, Meng Jian and Shi Tao were both looking Sima Yi up and down.
"Haha, today is definitely a good day. Let's go in and have a drink. Meng Jian said with a smile.
"Yes, extremely. Kong Ming has prepared good wine and food, and if he doesn't eat it, it will be wasted. Shi Tao said.
In the liberation of Meng Jian and Shi Tao, Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang also walked into Zhuge Liang's thatched hall together.
Zhuge Liang specially prepared excellent wine and food for today's party, and now they are all ready. It's just that he doesn't have Sima Yi's share, after all, he didn't realize that there would be one more person before. It's just that Kong Ming takes all the accidents into account when he does things for others, and he just prepares another one, so that Sima Yi will not be embarrassed.
"Kong Ming still doesn't leak. I was still worried before, but I didn't expect to be thought of by Kong Ming again. Cui Jun was still thinking about it just now, if he didn't have Sima Yi's share, then he would be embarrassed.
"It's all used to it." Zhuge Liang said with a smile.
Sima Yi can see from this that Zhuge Liang is a cautious person.
After this little matter was dealt with, Zhuge Liang and the others all sat down, and after a few words of chilling, they began to drink.
"Good wine, Kong Ming was able to get this wine, it seems that it took a lot of thought." Shi Tao said after taking a drink.
"This is the best wine in Xiangyang City. Although I am shy in my pocket, I can also buy a few bottles to satisfy my cravings. Zhuge Liang said lightly.
Cui Jun and Sima Yi didn't think this wine was good, but they had tasted Luo Bingquan's kind of fine wine, and they didn't feel any taste when they drank it.
"Although this wine is good, it is not as good as Luo Bingquan." Cui Jun told the truth.
Shi Tao smiled when he heard this: "Zhou Ping, you said that the world-famous Luo Bingquan? That's the most expensive wine. ”
"I heard that this wine was invented by Emperor Shenwu. I don't know if it's true. Meng Jian even told the gossip he got and asked Cui Jun for confirmation.
Cui Jun couldn't confirm it, so he only said what he knew: "Whether it's true or not, I haven't heard of it, it's just that this Luoyang Building is an industry run by His Majesty." ”
"Compete with the people. It's not the work of the Lord. I heard that Emperor Shenwu has other industries, these are people's fat and people's ointment. Zhou Ping, you are doing things in the Shenwu Imperial Court, why don't you advise? Zhuge Liang suddenly said a word.
Cui Jun was a little embarrassed, he also felt that it was not good for Liu Yu to buy a restaurant and other industries, but he was soft-spoken.
When Sima Yi heard Zhuge Liang say this, he was suddenly unhappy in his heart, and spat out: "It's really a frog at the bottom of the well!" ”
The scene suddenly became silent, and Zhuge Liang was a little angry when he was said to be a frog at the bottom of the well for the first time, and asked, "Dare to ask what I just said is the frog at the bottom of the well." As a ruler of the people, how to govern the people by competing with the people for profit? The Ninety-Five Supreme is the lord of the world, with benevolence, righteousness, virtue, filial piety and bravery. The people are waiting to be fed, but Liu Yu is buried in the property, according to your opinion, this is what Mingjun did? ”
Zhuge Liang asked Sima Yi a few questions in one breath.
Sima Yi will not be embarrassed by this, and said lightly: "You say that you are a frog at the bottom of the well, you still don't believe it." Then I will tell you why, Your Majesty did not purchase the property for personal gain, but for the common people in the world. ”
Zhuge Liang was originally a little disgusted with Sima Yi, and immediately fought back: "Jokes, competing for benefits with the people is said to be benevolent and righteous, and the world is a fallacy." ”
Meng Jian, Shi Tao, and Cui Jun saw the two competing against each other, and they didn't want things to worsen, so they hurriedly came out to persuade them.
But Sima Yi was ignited by Zhuge Liang's words, a person who didn't know the facts dared to say such nonsense, and it was still his lord, which was not something he could endure, and said: "Although Your Majesty was the prince back then, he had no foundation. Just out of the palace, there is no reliance, if it is not for the purchase of property, with self-stigmatization reputation, how to gain a foothold in the turbulent flow of Luoyang. I'm afraid that the great general He Jin of the year will let people assassinate His Majesty. These industries have accumulated a lot of money and food for His Majesty, so that His Majesty can easily navigate the troubled times. Now our lord has ascended the throne and become the supreme of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but he has not forgotten the fundamental way. Your Majesty has a vast territory, natural and man-made disasters emerge one after another, and you have to compete with the princes of the world for hegemony, can you support it with the treasury alone? Let me tell you, the income of all your majesty's estates is used among the people. This is what is taken from the people and what is done by the people. Competing with the people? What prince have you ever seen so kind to his people! Is it like some princes, who say they are benevolent and love the people, but in fact they are tyrannical and expropriating. ”
Sima Yi was born in a Hanoi family and knew more about Liu Yu's affairs.
Zhuge Liang was counterattacked by Sima Yi like this, and immediately aroused his anger and said: "The lord of the world should be the flaunt of the people of the world." If the Son of Heaven is like this, then will all the people of the world have to follow the same? I beg to beg if I don't agree! ”
"It's a troubled time here, and if you follow the rules, the big man doesn't know what the chaos will be. Brother Kong Ming, if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, your majesty has today's momentum, which proves your majesty's correctness. His Majesty once drank with Cao Mengde when he was young, and Cao Mengde asked His Majesty about his ambition, and His Majesty replied: If you are not born in the royal family, you may be a rich man. It is precisely because His Majesty is sympathetic to the people of the world that he has not increased his taxes by a cent. It is a blessing for the world to have such a benevolent monarch. ”
Meng Jian and Shi Tao were moved by Sima Yi's words and didn't want to be the emperor's son of heaven, but it was the first time they had heard of it.
Zhuge Liang is also the first time to hear such a thing, Liu Yu doesn't want to be the emperor, this is really a strange news in the world.
