In the fourth year of Han Jianxing, in April, Jiachen Day, the emperor's mountain collapsed and the state was mourned.

Emperor Daxing's Zigong Palace is parked in the center of the mourning hall, surrounded by giant banners, and the whole world is plain white as far as the eye can see.

Inside and outside the palace, armor soldiers wearing filial piety cloth and silk linen stood solemnly on both sides.

Everyone was crying, and the whole palace was immersed in grief, and tears were falling on the tiles.

Liu Yong knelt on the left side of the hall and sobbed, tears falling down, but his heart was trembling, his blood was spurting, and his thoughts were flying!

I didn't expect ...... I can live a second life!!

Thinking like this, a strange smile appeared on the corner of Liu Yong's mouth, three months ago, his soul crossed into this body, compared to the ordinary and depressed life of the previous life, he has a noble and extraordinary identity - King Lu, the second son of Emperor Liu Bei of the Han Zhaolie, and the younger brother of the later lord Liu Chan.

What's even more ecstatic is that the long river of history has turned a corner here in the eldest brother Liu Chan, it turns out that Liu Chan has been the emperor of Shu Han for forty-two years in history, until Deng Aibing surrendered under the capital of 1, but now the cheap brother has only been the son of heaven for five years, and died at the age of twenty years old, leaving only a three-year-old prince Liu Xuan.

Liu Chan died, and the throne was vacant, so that the wall between Liu Yong and the throne was ............ Collapsed!

At this point in the story, it is necessary to introduce Liu Bei's lineage:

Liu Bei has four sons, the fake son Liu Feng, Guan Yu died in Jingzhou in the twenty-fifth year of Jian'an, Meng Da led the Wei army to attack Shangyong, and Liu Feng fled back to Cheng 1 only to be spared. Under the persuasion of Zhuge Liang, he was given death by Liu Bei.

The eldest male Zen, the heir of the word, was born by the Empress Zhaolie Gan, and Zhang Wu was the emperor in three years. Well...... It's hung up now......

The second male Yong, the word Gongshou, the concubine, the first year of Zhangwu was the king of Lu, and he is fifteen years old now

Three male li, the word Fengxiao, Shu out, Zhang Wu was named King Liang in the first year, and he is ten years old today

Eventful, on the occasion of life, the governor of the country. He is undoubtedly the best candidate for the new monarch.

However, Liu Yong did not dare to guarantee that his ass would definitely sit on the throne of the emperor, he was just a powerless young feudal king, except for the natural inheritance of Liu Bei's political legacy, everything else like the courtiers, prestige and military influence were all nothing. Therefore, it is not himself who chooses the new monarch, but ...... That one...... Man!

Liu Yong slowly raised his head and looked at the man kneeling at the forefront of the minister, he was wearing mourning clothes and a filial piety cloth tied to his head, kneeling there quietly, and the whole person did not move at all. It gives people an extremely special temperament, as if his momentum is as heavy as a mountain, like an ancient rock.

For this man who is like a star, in his past and present lives, Liu Yongdu is familiar with it - Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty and Wuxiang Hou Zhuge Liang.

Maybe it was a heart, maybe it was a coincidence, Liu Yong actually found that Zhuge Liang also raised his eyes to look at him, it was a pair of calm and deep eyes like the sea, as if one glance was enough to understand everything. Liu Yong's heart jumped, and he quickly looked away, at that moment, he really felt that Zhuge Liang had seen through the bottom of his heart and peeked into the deep desires in his heart.

Will the famous Prime Minister Zhuge support himself as the new king............ Liu Yong does not know

On the day of Bingsi, the emperor of Daxing was buried in Huailing, and the ministers were called Emperor Xiaohuai.

*************************

Nishiki-ri, as the name suggests, is a place where you live like a splendid one. There are high-walled courtyards and towering mansions in Wumentou, where the ministers of Shu Han, Xungui and two thousand stone officials of Taiban live. And the mansions of King Lu and King Liang are also here.

It's ridiculous to say, according to the Han system, the prince is crowned king, and the land of the king is a county, and the county is changed to a country, and the prince is a country when he is older. But now Ludi is in the hands of Cao Wei, and Liangdi (Jingbei) is the land of Eastern Wu, and the two brothers Liu Yong and Liu Li were canonized with the land of the enemy country, which can be regarded as a precedent for opening the void.

Lu Wangfu, upper study

After the funeral, Liu Yong shrank in the palace, not out of the door all day, and did not step out of the second door, except for the teaching of Du Qiong, the prince of Lu, and the whole day in the study to make his own affairs. He knew very well that whether he could be ranked in the ninth five-year plan was something he could not control, and it was better to be indifferent than to worry about praying every day. What is yours will always be yours, and what is not yours you gain and lose.

With his left hand on his sleeve and his right hand on the pen, Liu Yong walked the dragon and snake on a bamboo slip. Although Caihou paper was invented earlier, it is still popular, and although the Zuobo paper invented in the Jian'an period is quite good and bright, it has not spread.

The common font of this era is Lishu, which pays attention to "silkworm head and goose tail" and "twists and turns", while the words written by Liu Yong on the bamboo slips show the characteristics of square shape and straight strokes, and they are more like square words than Lishu. This is the next direction of the Lishu, the handwritten orthographic character that was common in later generations - regular script!

Suddenly, there was a hurried "knock" footsteps outside the room, the door was opened, and a heroic young man walked into the room, and before he walked in front of Liu Yong, the voice had already come: "Your Highness, I have found some news." ”

Liu Yong turned his head to look at him and made a gesture to silence. The person who came is called Du Zhen, the young son of Du Qiong, the prince of Lu, and he has a good relationship with himself, which can be described as a confidant of the sworn party. This year is eighteen years old, three years older than Liu Yong, but when things are calm, Liu Yong is more than half a cut, and he looks like a hippie smile all day long.

Du Zhen had a smile on his face that couldn't be concealed, quickly knelt down in front of Liu Yong, and said excitedly: "Your Highness, my eldest brother is serving in Shangshutai, according to the news he heard, on the night of His Majesty's drive, he ordered Dong Yun, the squire of the Yellow Gate, to draft an edict and establish the emperor's eldest son Xuan as the heir. ”

"Yes...... And guess what happened in the end? Du Ran squeezed his eyes at Liu Yong.

What's the matter, if the three-year-old nephew was really appointed as the emperor, the edict would have been made public a long time ago, but the official explanation said that there was no edict. At first, Liu Yong thought that his emperor brother was in a hurry and had no time to leave an edict, but now it seems that there may be another hidden secret.

Liu Yong lowered his face and asked in a condensed voice, "Don't sell Guanzi?" Speak quickly! ”

"Dong Yun originally wanted to give the edict, but Zhuge Cheng said: The prince is too young to be able to install the temple, and the ministers dare not obey the edict!" Du Zhen said this sentence word by word, and the smile on his face disappeared cleanly, replaced by a solemn face.

Liu Yong's eyes stared at Du Zhen fiercely, he naturally understood the two meanings of this sentence in two lifetimes, and he knew the situation behind this sentence.

1. Since the prince Liu Xuan is young and wants to establish a long monarch, then it is either Liu Yong or Liu Li, and it is more likely to establish the older Liu Yong. This is undoubtedly good news for myself.

Second, it is not Song Ming now, the prime minister does not have the power to return the emperor's edict, and he ignores the emperor's order and abolishes the matter left and right, which is obviously a symbol of the minister! The last one to do so was Cao Pi, who usurped the Han dynasty and became self-reliant, and the previous one was ...... Dong Zhuo!

Is this Zhuge Liang genuinely thinking about the country, or is he demonstrating his authority through such a thing? Is this loyal minister through the ages really as he has no selfish desires like in the history books?

Liu Yong didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and he had mixed feelings in his heart at this moment, but his determination did not waver. If he ascends to the throne of Shu Han, he will never be willing to be left in power and engage in the reality of the hypocrisy, because ...... History has proven Zhuge Liang............ It can't revive the Han Dynasty!

******************************

At the same time as Liu Yong and Du Zhen were talking, there was also a far-reaching conversation going on in the Prime Minister's mansion

"Duke Du, the Duke was ordered by the first emperor (Liu Bei) to assist King Lu, it has been seven years since now, how is His Highness looking at him?" Zhuge Liang wore a green shirt, stood elegantly in front of the pond fence, and asked with a light smile.

Du Qiong looked at the prime minister in front of him, who exuded a chic and handsome atmosphere, and couldn't help but feel a little emotion in his heart.

At that time, Emperor Zhaolie Bintian's corpse was not cold, the lord Shaoguo was suspicious, and the southern and central counties took the opportunity to rebel, and Cao Wei's three princes and nine kings were more engaged in united front work.

Even Soochow also sent soldiers to the border and had bad intentions. At that time, the people of the DPRK and China were panicked, the people thought about changes, and the country reached a critical moment of survival.

And Zhuge Liang relied on his infinite personality charm and super high political skills to resolve crisis after crisis, first sent Deng Zhi as an envoy to Eastern Wu to repair relations between the two countries, and then personally led the army to pacify Nanzhong. Then he appeased the people and actively governed, and finally let Shu Han get out of the haze of the defeat of Yiling, and gradually had the strength of the Northern Expedition.

Therefore, Du Qiong admires Zhuge Liang from the bottom of his heart, if it weren't for this public effort to turn the tide, there would be no Shu Han today!

"Your Highness is gifted and intelligent, benevolent and loving."

"Oh?" Zhuge Liang was slightly surprised

In China, speaking is also an art, and the Chinese are humble and polite. When evaluating a person, he usually praises his intelligence and handsomeness without hesitation, and if he has an average IQ and mediocre appearance, then he will praise his virtue and personality.

For example, Zhuge Liang commented on Liu Chan - the court is eighteen years old, talented and benevolent, and Corporal Amity. This kind of evaluation is to focus on morality, avoid the important and light, the subtext is nothing more than that the emperor is eighteen years old, weak temperament, although not stupid, but only in the son of the people.

In this comparison, Liu Yong, who is "gifted and intelligent", seems to be much smarter than his short-lived brother, so Zhuge Liang instantly became interested. "How so?"

"Once, I took an apple and put it on a few tables, and said to His Highness: An apple is divided between two people, and both of them want more, and if one of them cuts it, how can we ensure that the cutting is fair?"

"One person to cut, how to cut fairly?" Zhuge Liang began to think, both of them wanted more, the person who cut the apple must cut a bigger petal for himself, and that would definitely be unfair to divide. Interesting...... "But I don't know what His Highness said?" ”

Du Qiong's eyes lit up, and he said with a little pride: "Your Highness's answer is............ Take it after the cut!! ”

"Wonderful!" Zhuge Liang slapped his palm, his face changed, the person who cut the apple took it, then he would definitely cut the apple in half fairly and justly, so as to ensure that the other person gave him the remaining petal was half of the whole apple! Only in this way will the cutter not suffer!
