In the end, Cao Cao still in the name of the Son of Heaven, recognized Liu Bei's identity as the king of Hanzhong, and sent a messenger to send a congratulatory gift, although at this time, may not be able to separate the alliance between Sun and Liu, but at least leave a way for Cao Pi, now the two families look intimate, but the future, no one can say for sure, maybe one day there is a need, the two sides can be united.

Liu Bei also had the same thoughts, and received Chen Qun who came to congratulate him, Chen Qun had a good relationship with Liu Bei, and was opened by Liu Bei as a special driver in Yuzhou in his early years, and Liu Bei was ready to take Chen Qun as a confidant and adviser.

It's a pity that Liu Bei's heels have been unstable, so in the end, the two can only have no fate.

Now that it has been almost 20 years, it is naturally embarrassing to see each other.

"Changwen, the last time you and I met, I remember that it was still three years of Jian'an, right?" Liu Bei pulled Chen Qun's acceptance, and the trick of the imperial court to seal the king was casually put on the table, just pulling Chen Qun.

When Tao Qian was critically ill and dragged Xuzhou to each other, Chen Qun persuaded Liu Bei to let him delay taking Xuzhou, otherwise if Liu Bei and Yuan Shu went to war, the rear would be empty, and I was afraid that people would take advantage of it.

It's just that Liu Bei at that time was too eager for a piece of his own territory, and he didn't follow Chen Qun's advice.

Since then, Chen Qun has been in Lu Bu's army, and later Cao Cao captured Xuzhou and conquered Chen Qun.

"It's four years of Jian'an." Chen Qun smiled and nodded, when Jian'an was four years old, his father died, and Chen Qun resigned to keep filial piety for his father, and since then, Liu Bei and Chen Qun have basically never met again.

"It's been four years since Jian'an, and I don't want to blink an eye, it's almost twenty years." Liu Bei sighed and said: "Changwen, I will introduce to you, this is Zhuge Liang, Mr. Zhuge Kongming, who can have today, Kong Ming is indispensable, and this is Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan, who has the talent of heaven and earth." ”

"The name of the Wolong and Phoenix Chicks has long been heard of by the group." Chen Qun bowed slightly at the two of them and said, when I saw it today, it was extraordinary.

Liu Yi always felt that when Chen Qun said this, he didn't look at Pang Tong, don't ask him why he knew, men's intuition.

Chen Qun's gaze was at Liu Yi, and after the eyes of the two collided in the air for a moment, they staggered away, Chen Qun smiled and said: "This must be the rumored Jingnan craftsman Liu Yi and Liu Boyuan." ”

Jingnan Divine Craftsman? Why does it feel like this name is a bit low?

"Divine craftsmen dare not be." Liu Yi shook his head and replied very formulaically, Chen Qun obviously had no intention of having an in-depth exchange with Liu Yi, if it weren't for Liu Yi's reputation now, it might be an insult to sit at the same table with him, these years, no matter how good you are, it still depends on your birth, if you are not born well, even if you have the power in the world, you will be looked down upon by such a person.

……

"Chen Qun, is it famous?" Liu Yi is very strange, Liu Bei, who is transparent and transparent about human feelings on weekdays, didn't he see that there was an embarrassing atmosphere at today's dinner?

He wanted to leave the table several times, but was stopped by Liu Bei, which made Liu Yi very uncomfortable.

"Famous and indeed famous, his grandfather Chen Yu, his father Chen Ji, and uncle Chen Chen are all famous." Zhuge Liang smiled and nodded.

"That's not all!" Pang Tong said with a smile: "Chen Changwen is rarely famous, after the advantage of Yingchuan Chen, the people who come and go are all celebrities, and it should be an honor for Boyuan to be able to sit with him today." ”

"I haven't eaten well, I'm going to eat some more, will I go with you?" Liu Yi shook his head, in that embarrassing atmosphere, except for Chen Qun and Liu Bei, everyone else was not in the mood to eat.

"No, I'm discussing with Xiaozhi about relocation in the past few days." Zhuge Liang shook his head, he has indeed been quite busy recently.

"What about you?" Liu Yi looked at Pang Tong.

"Let's go." Pang Tong nodded, when he is not fighting, he is still relatively idle, at least not as busy as Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang is busy when he is not fighting, and he is very busy when he is fighting, especially in recent years, Liu Bei's group has been expanding, Zhuge Liang wants to maintain the stability of the rear, it is really busy.

Of course, this is also the reason why there are many people who eat idle meals under Liu Bei, and recently Zhuge Liang is improving the official system in response to this problem, and what the effect is, then we have to talk about it.

"When are you leaving?" The two found a post house, sat opposite each other, ordered some food, and chatted while drinking.

Liu Yi still has a lot of fortifications in Nanyang that have not been taken care of, Guan Yu has already set off to Nanyang first, and Liu Yi is almost time to leave.

"After the matter here is decided, if the lord decides to move here, this Nanzheng should at least build a palace." Liu Yi said casually, the majesty of the king should always be there, now that Liu Bei is the king, he can no longer live in a place like the Assassin's Mansion, at least he has to change the brand, he also has to determine Liu Bei's meaning, and then set off, and think about what to do next on the way.

"I heard that Cao Wei is also drafting a new law." Pang Tong took a sip of wine, looked at Liu Yi and said, "What does Bo Yuan think?" ”

"At this time, everyone is seeking change, who is strong and who is weak, it is difficult to see at this time, this will take time to verify, no matter how much you say, it has no practical meaning." Liu Yi shook his head, any set of systems is not imaginary, it has to be combined with reality, if it is suitable, it is good, if it is not suitable, it is useless to look good.

Zhuge Liang uses the rule of law, but the labor cost is large, and the most important thing is supervision, no matter how perfect it is, as long as it is implemented by people, there will definitely be loopholes.

"Bo Yuan is not worried about Kong Ming?" Pang Tong looked at Liu Yi and said.

"Kong Ming pursues perfection too much, but this life is in the world, whether it is a family or a country, where is it really perfect, it is just to find a balance in constant weighing." Liu Yi held the wine bowl and said with a smile: "You tell Kong Ming this, I am sometimes really worried that he will die of exhaustion." ”

is obviously a politician, but he has the character of an artist, and the pursuit of perfection in everything is not a good thing for a politician.

"Then why didn't you say it yourself?" Pang Tong glanced at Liu Yi.

"I can't talk about him." Liu Yi said helplessly, he can win Pang Tong in lip service, but he can't win Zhuge Liang, he is worried that he will be persuaded by Zhuge Liang, but the so-called one thing to one thing, don't look at Pang Tong often suffers from Liu Yi in his mouth, but when it comes to debating with Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong rarely loses.

"That's fine, but next time you come back, you'll have to bring me some good wine." Pang Tong took a sip of wine, smacked his lips and said, Tiangongfang has a special winery, but it does not produce much, most of it is used to give away, and it is rarely sold to the outside world, even as a friend, Pang Tong can rarely taste it.

……

Liu Bei is really good to Chen Qun, Liu Yi can see it in the past two days, although he is Wei Guan, he may want to make up for his past mistakes, or maybe he has some other thoughts in it, Liu Bei has been with Chen Qun almost every day in the past few days.

In this regard, Liu Yi can only say that the hearts of the people are popular, in fact, sometimes they are quite cheap, they know that it is impossible, but they just want to try, when Boss Cao wanted to subdue Second Brother Guan, he took over and lost a lot of generals to go in, Sun Quan wanted to win over Zhao Yun, and now Liu Bei wants to win over Chen Qun, is this a circle?

These things have little to do with him, in the next few days, Liu Yi is waiting, waiting for Chen Qun to leave, there are some things that cannot be revealed to Chen Qun after all.

In the end, Chen Qun still left in Liu Bei's hospitality, to put it bluntly, this time he came just to summon him, and after staying for so long, it was easy to arouse suspicion, Liu Bei's thoughts, Liu Yi could see it, and Chen Qun could naturally see it, but this kind of thing was not easy to pick and choose.

followed Liu Bei all the way to send Chen Qun out of the city, looking at Liu Bei who was reluctant, Liu Yi finally couldn't help but speak: "Lord, it's not all the way!" ”

Chen Qun's concept is too far from today's Liu Bei, Chen Qun admires the status of scholars, and Liu Bei is actually similar to Cao Cao in many aspects, meritocracy, this alone, the system proposed by Chen Qun cannot find a market in Liu Bei.

"Lone knows!" Liu Bei nodded and smiled.

"Uh......" Liu Yi looked at Liu Bei in surprise, and the style of painting became a little different.

"I know that Changwen will come to Hanzhong this time, and he will have a plan." Liu Bei looked at the direction Chen Qun left and smiled, "If it weren't for that, how could you restrain him?" ”

"The lord is high-minded, and Yi admires." Liu Yi arched his hand at Liu Bei, sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, Cao Cao sent Chen Qun here this time, obviously with Cao Cao's purpose, but Chen Qun was pulled by Liu Bei's side and talked about his heart for so long, and now Liu Yi is beginning to sympathize with Chen Qun.

"What Kong Ming said, Gu has been thinking about it these days, since it is the mandate of heaven, then it will be moved here, and this time, don't build a big deal anymore." Liu Bei said in the end, a little helpless, not that he didn't want to, but that although he had expanded rapidly in recent years, Xiangyang, Xia, and the road from Hanzhong to Nanyang, Liu Bei recently found that he had no money, so he could only save a little money, and wait for two years to think about it.

"Since the lord said so, Na Yi will not be reluctant, so he will do the affairs of the palace first, and then the minister will prepare to go to Nanyang." Liu Yi nodded, no matter how rich he is, he really can't withstand such a toss, especially the Nanyang plague, although he got Nanyang, but it also made Liu Bei's group's finances have a large deficit, Jingzhou and even Shuzhong grain and grass have invested a lot in Nanyang, so far, according to the news from Nanyang, the plague has not been completely eliminated, and Liu Yi went to Nanyang City this time in order to stabilize the defense, dredge the road, and it is a large amount of expenses, there is really no extra money to build another royal city.
