Chapter 20: The Arrival of Li Ru
Longzhong, Nanyang, Jingzhou, in front of an elegant thatched house.
In the courtyard, three scribes, dressed in long robes, were sitting in the courtyard drinking tea and discussing affairs.
"Kong Ming, you are at ease, now the world is chaotic, and the chaos in the world is already irreversible." At this point, the scribe, who was a little older in the first year, spoke.
"Yuan Zhi, do you think that he Zhuge Kongming will not know about the affairs of this world, but he is the double emperor of the same dynasty. What a rare spectacle. At this time, a man next to him replied, with thick eyebrows and nose, black face and short hair, and a strange description.
"What Shi Yuan said is, but I nagged, Kong Ming, what do you think of this situation now." Xu Shu nodded and looked at Zhuge Kongming on the side and said.
"As Shiyuan said, chaos has appeared, and there are even two emperors, and Liang didn't expect it." Zhuge Liang replied.
"Yes, I thought that the young emperor would die at the hands of Dong Zhuo, but I didn't think about it but escaped from Luoyang, I don't know what Kong Ming thinks of these two emperors?" Xu Shu looked at Zhuge Liang and asked.
"What does Shiyuan think?" Zhuge Liang didn't answer directly, but looked at Pang Tong on the side and asked.
"The young emperor is not dead, it is already a variable, although King Chen Liuwang is the emperor is just a puppet, but the young emperor is weak, and it is not easy to turn the tide, so I am not optimistic about Pang Tong." After taking a sip of tea, Pang Tong replied.
"I watched the stars at night last night and found a strange scene, the Ziwei Emperor Star, half of which was dim and lightless, and the other half was dazzling."
"Starry? Could it be that the Han family is not exhausted? But if this is the case, then I don't know which of the two emperors this emperor star is revealed? After Xu Shu heard Zhuge Liang's words, he was also a little surprised.
"I don't know, but if you look at the stars, Liang thinks that if you choose one of the two, the young emperor who escaped from Luoyang has more hope." Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment and replied.
"Then Kong Ming, what do you mean, the Han family is hopeful?"
"Although the Emperor Star has light, but around the Emperor Star, there are several general stars, which are also dazzling and not weak."
"There is a star in Xuchang, domineering and unmatched, dazzling, there is a star in Jizhou, dazzling, but the sharpness is not long, there is a star in Dongwu, it is also starry, there is a great tendency to compete, there is a star in Shudi, but it is flickering and dark, in addition, the other main stars are also unpredictable." Zhuge Liang looked at his friend in front of him and replied.
"It seems that the affairs of this world are all under the control of your Kong Ming, worthy of Wolong, in troubled times, Kong Ming is talented, I'm afraid he is not willing to be buried like this." Xu Shu smiled after listening to Zhuge Liang's words.
"Why do you two want to go down the mountain?" Zhuge Liang asked rhetorically after listening to Xu Shu's words.
"Since the world is in chaos, it is already the general trend for the heroes to compete with each other, and if you don't choose the lord and serve, when will you wait?" Pang Tong immediately replied.
"Then I don't know Shiyuan? Who to choose? ”
"At that time, Kong Ming, you will know that if you say goodbye today, I hope he will see each other one day, and you and I will be friends and not enemies." Pang Tong smiled, but did not answer positively.
After speaking, Pang Tong took his leave and got up to leave.
"Kong Ming, why don't you persuade him?" Xu Shu saw Pang Tong leave and spoke.
"Shiyuan's temperament, how can you not know, besides. I am called Wolong, its phoenix chicks, Shiyuan heart is high, often have a competitive heart, I think he must go to the north undoubtedly. Zhuge Liang sighed and said.
"Now the chaos has appeared, but the general trend is not clear, at this time Shiyuan went down the mountain, I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses." Zhuge shook his head and said.
After saying that, he also got up and went back to his cottage.
Xu Shu didn't dwell on it when he saw it, "It seems that I should also have a good travel, and I can't live up to what I have learned." ”
Of course, Liu Wei didn't know what was happening in Jingzhou.
At this time, he had just finished practicing swordsmanship with Wang Yue, and the whole person was tired and out of breath.
"Your Majesty, didn't you like to practice martial arts before? Why bother? Seeing that Liu was tired, Tang Ji wiped his sweat and persuaded him distressedly.
"It's different now, this martial arts practice can not only protect oneself, but also strengthen the body, which is beneficial and harmless." Liu Wei replied with a smile, of course he knew that Tang Ji also felt sorry for him, but he would not give up practicing martial arts.
"If the queen has the heart to exercise, I can teach you too."
"Your Majesty is letting your concubines practice martial arts?"
"That's naturally not, if you can't exercise, you must practice martial arts, you can dance a radio gymnastics, aerobics or something." Seeing that Tang Ji had misunderstood, Liu Wei immediately explained.
Of course he won't let Tang Ji practice martial arts, he doesn't want a delicate little beauty to end up being a fierce woman.
"Your Majesty? What are you talking about? What radio gymnastics, what aerobics, the concubine didn't understand a word. Tang Ji looked at Liu Wei in confusion.
Sometimes Liu Wei can always pop up a few words that confuse her.
"It's... I can't explain this, but I can give you a paragraph. Liu Wei was also in a good mood, so he looked at Tang Ji and said.
It's usually fine, but if Tang Ji jumps on a section, it's still very fine.
"It's... Concubines can't do it. Tang Ji was immediately embarrassed when she saw Liu Debater dancing, she didn't dance, and ran away immediately after speaking.
"Can't I jump?" Seeing Tang Ji running away with an embarrassed face, Liu Wei couldn't help muttering.
Forget it, let's be an emperor honestly, dancing or something, it may really not be suitable.
"Your Majesty, the minister Xun asks to see you." At this moment, Xun You's voice suddenly sounded.
"Come in." Seeing that Xun Yu was coming, Liu Wei immediately sat down, and then spoke.
"Chancellor, meet Your Majesty." Xun You was about to salute, but was supported by Liu Wei.
"Gongda, don't be polite, I said that everything is easy now."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Gongda, what are you doing here?" Liu Wei looked at Xun You and asked.
"The minister wants to ask Your Majesty, how can there be any news from this big person?" Xun You replied.
"I see, there is some news from Wang Shi today, but after I practiced martial arts, I forgot about it, and I thought that I would rest for a while and then discuss with you." Liu Wei said with some embarrassment.
"According to investigation, the Shangdang has 40,000 troops, of which 20,000 are the old department of the original assassin Shi Ding Yuan, who followed Zhang Yang after his death, and Zhang Yang recruited training personnel by himself."
"The people of this old department are headed by Han Yan, and the Zhang Yang department is headed by Yang Chou." Liu Wei said.
"Han Yan, Yang Chou." Xun You pondered for a moment and then looked at Liu and said, "Your Majesty should let the eldest person figure out the relationship between them, if you can, the minister is willing to use this three-inch incorruptible tongue to do the opposite." ”
"It seems that Gongda and I think the same, Zhang Yang is easy to deal with, but the important thing is his soldiers and horses, this is ready-made fat." Liu Wei said with a smile.
"If it can be used by His Majesty, then it will be a great help for him to unify and annex the state and regain the lost land." Xun You also nodded.
"By the way, Gongda, what's the news from Luoyang?" Liu Wei asked as if he had thought of something.
"Now that Dong Zhuoli is the new emperor in Luoyang, he has not seen any action, and he has no intention of sending troops to the party." Seeing Liu Wei asking, Xun Yu replied.
"No plans to send troops?" Liu Wei was a little surprised.
Can this Dong Zhuo hold back? After Li Su was driven back last time, shouldn't Dong Zhuo be like a thunderbolt?
"Well, for the time being, is it true, is Your Majesty worried about any conspiracy?"
"I just think this is not Dong Zhuo's character." Liu Wei replied with a smile.
But nine times out of ten, it should be Li Ru's role in this. Liu Wei thought in his heart.
Li Ru is a powerful strategist, not only Li Ru, if I remember correctly, Jia Xu should also be under Dong Zhuo.
"Your Majesty, Shi, I asked to see you, saying that there was an urgent matter."
"Urgent? Let him in? Liu Wei immediately spoke.
Shi Ah is now one of the people in charge of Da Whohe, he has an urgent matter, it seems that there is some news.
"Shi, please meet Your Majesty."
"No need to be polite, Shi, what's the hurry?" Liu Wei signaled that there was no need to be polite, and let Shi Ah talk about things first.
"Your Majesty, Li Ru has come to the party, and he has already entered Zhang Yang's mansion at this time."
"Li Ru is here to join the party? How did he get here? Is this true? Liu Wei was also surprised.
"It's true, Li Ru didn't hide it, but came to the party with great fanfare." Shi Ah replied.
"It's really bold, since you're here, then I'll go and take a look, Gongda, you go with me and publicize the mansion." Liu Wei said.
