Chapter 576: Rest and Recuperate
"Where did you get this news?"
Zhuge Liang's brows furrowed even tighter, and he looked at Ma Jian and asked.
If such rumors are not stopped in time, it will bring great harm.
"Teacher, such rumors have been spreading.
The student checked carefully, and the source is likely to be Wei Guo! ”
Ma Jian knew what Zhuge Liang was thinking, and immediately gave an answer.
That's when he first got the news.
He also felt that some people with ill intentions did it.
Until Yingwei personally found out, the source of the news was Wei Guo.
Zhuge Liang was silent......
Today's Wei State basically relies on Sima Yi's support.
The new emperor has just ascended the throne, and both his prestige and deeds are far inferior to those of the former emperor Cao Pi.
Therefore.
The only way out for the new emperor was to rely on Sima Yi.
If it is really as Ma Jian said, the source of this news is Wei State.
Then there is only one possibility, this is Sima Yi's idea.
"Does the king know about this?" After a long time, Zhuge Liang looked at Ma Jian and asked.
"I don't know yet, because the king handed everything over to the teacher, so the report of the shadow guard was sent to the students.
Students should be the first to know about it! ”
"Go, follow me to the king!"
With that, Zhuge Liang took the lead out of the room.
This matter can be big or small, the key depends on how Xu Tian handles it.
If he hadn't grasped Sima Yi's intentions.
Then there is a high chance that you will make the wrong choice.
Zhuge Liang knew that he must make the right choice for Xu Tian.
Xu Tian's residence was placed in the city according to his wishes.
He likes everything here, whether it is food, use or play, Xu Tian likes it very much.
All this is because of Xu Tian's deep memory.
In his later life, he was a person living in Chengdu.
Chengdu is very lively, with a lot of pedestrians on the streets.
Zhuge Liang and Ma Jian didn't have the heart to appreciate these.
Everything here is already too familiar for them to be more familiar.
Driving their horses in a hurry, the two galloped down the street.
After a while, they came to a very modest courtyard.
Guarding here, the shadow guards who turned into family servants basically knew Zhuge Liang and the others.
Unhindered, they entered the courtyard.
There is a very large old locust tree growing in the courtyard, which is extremely large.
In the height of summer, there is always a large shady area.
At this moment, Xu Tian happened to be in this shady place.
A stove, a stream of hot water, and a small table with three cups on it under the old locust tree.
Xu Tian was lying on a recliner he had made himself, his hands were folded, and he was very leisurely as he lay down.
When Zhuge Liang and the others came here, they couldn't help but be a little moved when they saw this scene.
Looking up at the dazzling sun, Zhuge Liang let out a long breath.
This kind of life is not what he hoped in his dreams.
The world is peaceful, there is no war, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and no one dies every day.
As if he understood what the teacher was thinking, Ma Tan also did not speak.
He didn't think about Zhuge Liang as much, he just felt that Xu Tian like this looked much more real.
"Come and sit ......"
Xu Tian's recliner made a "squeak" sound.
Hearing Xu Tian's words, the two of them did not hesitate, strode forward, and came to the small table.
It's just that when they arrived, they didn't know what to do.
Because on either side of this table, there are no seats at all.
In place of the seats, there were two wooden stools, but in the eyes of Zhuge Liang and the others, this was something completely incomprehensible.
"Sit down!" Xu Tian smiled and pointed to the two stools and said.
Seeing that the two of them still didn't move, and looked at him very suspiciously, Xu Tian also suddenly got up and signaled for them.
"It's going to be comfortable to sit on, you can try!"
After seeing Xu Tian's demonstration, Zhuge Liang and the two sat down like Xu Tian.
Really.
It was really much more comfortable to sit up like this, and Ma Jian even touched his knees, and got up and touched the wooden stool in some surprise.
"That's a good thing!" Ma Jian couldn't help but sigh again.
Zhuge Liang's mind is obviously not on this.
He just glanced at it lightly, and then said to Xu Tian: "King, there is a very important matter now...."
Before Zhuge Liang could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xu Tian.
"I know what you're going to say!" Xu Tian slowly picked up the kettle and brewed a cup of hot tea for Zhuge Liang.
"This Sima Yi just wants us to understand that what Wei and we need now is rest, not a large-scale war!"
Xu Tian's faint words made Zhuge Liang and Ma Jian a little stunned.
They thought that Xu Tian didn't know anything about this matter, so they hurried over.
Now it seems that I am thinking too much.
"I thought that the king didn't know about this matter yet!" Zhuge Liang obviously relaxed, and picked up the tea that Xu Tian had brewed for him.
"What does Kong Ming think?" Xu Tian didn't care about Zhuge Liang's words, and asked rhetorically.
"As the king said, what we need most now is to rest the army, after such a long battle, the soldiers are very tired!
And the reason why Wei wants to make this kind of top-secret information all over the city is the result of peaceful coexistence with us! ”
"Well, that's what I thought, too!" Xu Tian nodded and said very approvingly: "As for Sun Quan, after returning to Xiangyang, he naturally won't dare to come!" ”
"Go back?" Zhuge Liang's brows furrowed slightly.
He didn't understand what Xu Tian meant, Yizhou had just taken it, and it was the time when they needed to integrate vigorously.
Wouldn't it be a waste of a great opportunity to go back at such a time?
"The king...."This time, it was Ma Jian who spoke first.
He was more anxious than Zhuge Liang, such a good opportunity, he would not watch Xu Tian miss it.
"I know what you're going to say!" Xu Tian interrupted Ma Yan's words again, and smiled slightly: "I am relieved that there are you here!" ”
This time, neither of them spoke again, but just glanced at each other, and both saw the shock in their eyes.
"What does the king mean?" Zhuge Liang asked in disbelief.
"Kong Ming, you know the situation in Yizhou best, and you are the most suitable person to guard Yizhou!" Xu Tian said very seriously, and then looked at Ma Jian again:
"You are often your student and your best helper, and it is also the best choice for him to assist you!"
"The King...."
The two of them slowly stood up, looking very excited.
They didn't expect that Xu Tian would do this to them.
Give them full authority to take care of Yizhou, which has just been taken.
All that is needed is total trust and great courage.
But if Xu Tian had a trace of distrust in his heart, he would not make such a decision.
"This burden is going to be placed on you, hard work!"
Xu Tian said, personally getting up and pouring them a cup of hot tea.
"Minister, you must do your best to live up to the king's trust!"
The two of them knelt on the ground together and bowed respectfully to Xu Tian....
