Two days later, Zhuge Ming and his entourage quietly entered Luoyang. In the Wude Palace, Zhuge Ming knelt in front of Liu Bian, there was an incense burner between the two, and Liu Bian's face was tired and lazy. Although these days to deal with the government is more and more handy, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, since the Ling Emperor Dynasty to buy officials and lords, the Shaofu has long been defeated, coupled with years of war, the treasury has long been empty.

Every time Liu Wei saw that the Daozhou government asked for silver, he couldn't bear to pay for it, and now the grain of the 100,000 army in Luoyang has been allocated for the benefit of the family's cleaning.

This is also the reason why Liu Wei was overjoyed when he saw Zhuge Ming's letter. Even if Zhuge Ming is sold now, Liu Wei is also a hundred reasons. With the help of the Zhen family, the imperial court can be shortly solved.

Zhuge Ming knelt down and made a report on the situation in the two states of Ji and You, of course, the big battle of the Wuheng Heng army was also a simple summary, and the outside must first be settled inside, and now that the princes are divided, Zhuge Ming does not want Liu Wei to be distracted by the war in the north.

Out of the imperial city, Zhuge Ming, who returned to Wuhou Mansion, couldn't help but be stunned, and the Wuhou Mansion, which was cold and deserted in the past, suddenly became much more lively.

"Ah Liang, you're back, but you want to die as a mother." After Zhuge Ming entered the inner hall, he saw a middle-aged beautiful woman pulling Liu Mu's three daughters, and she looked confused.

"Mother", hearing this claim, Zhuge Ming's heart trembled, according to the trend of history, her mother will pass away in a short time, and then he and his brother Zhuge will follow his second uncle Zhuge Xuan to Jingxiang in the south.

Looking at Zhuge Ming, who was suddenly sluggish, the middle-aged beauty couldn't help but cry secretly. Seeing this, Zhuge Ming blamed himself, hurriedly brushed up his sleeves, and wiped away his tears. Zhuge Ming recalled the memories of Zhuge Liang's mother in his mind, but he knew very little, only that the other party was also a lady, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, and later married his father Zhuge Si, which was also a marriage between the two families.

After comforting Xie's mother, Zhuge Ming noticed a handsome scholar next to him, this person was Zhuge Xuan, Zhuge Si's younger brother, who took Zhuge Ming to Nanyang, and when he returned to Luoyang Villa, Zhuge Ming had already gone to Luoyang. When I heard about my nephew's deeds over the years, I was relieved. stepped forward and hugged Zhuge Ming tightly and patted the other party's shoulder.

Only then did Zhuge Ming look at his titular brother, and later Zhuge Jin, who was famous in Eastern Wu. The other party is obviously a little restrained, although the two are brothers, they are rarely together.

"Ah Liang, your brother is now following my second uncle and me to practice in the Confucian League, and I will go back in a few days, so you have to get together this time."

"Confucian League? Second uncle, are you also in the Confucian League? Zhuge Ming was surprised when he heard this.

"Haha, your second uncle is now a deacon of the Confucian League, and your brother is the leader of the list of famous people in the world, and now he is ranked twenty-seventh."

"What is the Baume & Mercier List?" Zhuge Ming couldn't help but ask curiously.

"The Baume & Mercier List is a list created by many Baume & Mercier in the pre-Qin period of antiquity and has continued to this day. The great cultivators of all generations have been on this list, and the sage Dong Zhongshu once ranked first on the list. As one of the three major lists in the world, the list of celebrities and scholars has a high gold content, and those who have been on the list have all become leaders in the cultivation world, and are more likely to step into the realm of transcendent sainthood. ”

Looking at Zhuge Ming thoughtfully, Zhuge Xuan smiled slightly.

"Ah Liang, don't be discouraged, there will definitely be a place for you on the celebrity list this year, I didn't expect my Zhuge family to have two big heavenly arrogances today."

Zhuge Ming nodded with a smile after hearing this, and after some chat, he learned that since Zhuge Ming's accident, Liu Wei sent an edict to let Zhuge Ming's family enter Beijing, accompanied by Liu Bei, the assassin of Yuzhou, and escorted his party to Luoyang. When Zhuge Ming learned about it, he was moved. During this period, Liu Bei brought Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others to visit, and Zhuge Ming went out to welcome him all the way to the hall, and Liu was flattered.

"Xuande Gong, I don't know why I came."

Zhuge Ming took a sip of tea and asked Liu Bei.

Liu Bei looked sincerely frightened, and looked at a green-shirted man beside him, who was dressed as a weak-crowned scholar.

"This gentleman's name is honored."

"Grass people Jian Yong, I've seen Master Hou." Zhuge Ming nodded, only to know that this person was Liu Bei's former military advisor, and when Zhuge Liang was not born to assist Liu Bei, Jian Yong had been beside Liu Bei to give advice.

"Hou Ye, this time, prepare to enter Beijing by His Majesty's edict, and secondly, look up to Hou Ye's name for a long time, and now thanks to the emperor's grace to confer the lieutenant of Si Li, now the princes are divided, and the matter of Xiliang has also been heard, and this time I hope to step on Xiliang with Hou Ye."

Zhuge Ming glanced at Liu Bei, but the other party's words were not revealed. The bright side of the praise is a lot, but the vague want to be the military power of the subordinate. Now in the land of Guanzhong, the power of soldiers and horses has returned to Liu Wei's hands. The whole of Luoyang, in addition to the 30,000 horses of the northern and southern armies, is the palace guard and the 5,000 Luoyang city guards with open jaws. There were less than 50,000 soldiers and horses in the entire Luoyang and Jinggi armies, and the rest of the Han army swallowed troops all over Guanzhong.

Si Li's lieutenant is equivalent to assassinating history, and it is reasonable for Liu Bei to ask for part of the military power, after all, people are smooth sailing in Yuzhou, and they suddenly came to Luoyang and were overhead, and there is still a group of people below who want to eat and be promoted, unlike Zhuge Ming, who is alone.

Zhuge Ming frowned and pondered, but Liu Bei needed to be placed. Now that Huangfu Song is sitting in Beijing, there are still good generals available, but Liu Bei is a double-edged sword, like Cao Cao, he uses it well to open up territory, and if he doesn't use it well, he hurts others and hurts himself, but Liu Bei is much better than Cao Cao.

Zhuge Ming ordered the attendants on the left and right to take the map, and searched for the large and small counties in Guanzhong by themselves, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he picked up the oil lamp and looked forward, Liu Bei and others got up one after another, but it was the word Chen Liu who caught everyone's eyes. Liu Bei and Jian Yong glanced at each other, both with puzzled expressions. Only Zhuge Ming laughed, which puzzled everyone.

"Xuande Gong, there is a good place to go this time." Zhuge Ming pretended to be mysterious and said.

"Master Hou, it's Chen Liu." Liu Bei asked with a blank face, although this place is a county, it is not a military place. Although this is the case, it is the majority of large households in Guanzhong, otherwise Cao Cao would not have raised affairs in Chenliu back then.

Zhuge Ming smiled when he saw this, pointed to Chenliu and said, "Although Chenliu County is a county, it is for Luoyang's supply. It is less than 100 miles away from Chang'an and Luoyang. The general can lead the troops and horses of his headquarters to work with the people, and at the same time the grain and grass supply to the army, it can also be transported like Guanzhong. Now that the imperial court is short of grain and grass, the general tuntian is here, and it only takes one year for us to need to be recruited, and the soldiers will not be industrious because there is no war. ”

Liu Bei suddenly realized after hearing this, if this is the case, this important task is not for ordinary people to be incompetent. As a relative of the Han family, Liu Bei's blood relationship has been very sparse, from the white body to today, he urgently needs merit to show himself, and this is an opportunity.
