In the remaining three days, Zhuge Liang took Jiang Wei to visit the ministers of the court, Fei Yi, the central guard, Shi Jiangwan, the deputy governor, Dong Yun, the military sacrifice wine Laimin, the university scholar Qian Zhou, and Shangshu Ling Yin Zheng are all Zhuge Liang's henchmen, Jiang Wei has no reason not to be close to them, and Jiang Wei has tasted the tea in the homes of these ministers in a few days. He sensed many emotions in the looks of these people, some envious, some jealous, and some disdainful.

Zhuge Liang did this, nothing more than laying a good foundation for Jiang Wei's connections, but he didn't need these! If the internal needs to be taken care of first, and the external troubles do not stop, then the internal strife is like weeds, the wildfires are inexhaustible, and the spring breeze blows and grows. As long as Wei Guo can be beaten all over his body, he can stop the barking of these scholars.

But he has one more thing to do before he takes office. Jiang Wei slowly walked into a courtyard with a token in hand, there were ten elite handles on the periphery of the courtyard, and the surrounding walls were full of wires, and three groups of soldiers in the courtyard took turns patrolling for twelve hours, and they were heavily guarded.

The helmets of these soldiers were hung with white tassels, all of which were white-eared elites. However, they were very polite to Jiang Wei, after all, the deeds of Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition had been spread to all parts of Shu as political propaganda, and the soldiers had always admired the heroes, and these white-eared soldiers with strong blood were even more so.

Jiang Wei pushed open the lacquer door, walked in slowly, and said lightly: "Brother Deda, are you still studying the recipe today?" ”

Sun Lizao Jiang Wei came to Chengdu one step earlier, of course, he was escorted to this courtyard as soon as he got off the carriage, Sun Ligui is the captain of Si Li, and he is a celebrity next to Cao Rui. He was detained in Chengdu for only one role, and that was a political bargaining chip at the negotiating table.

If nothing else, Sun Li will be confined to this courtyard for the rest of his life, like a prison bird. Sun Li also realized this, so he immersed himself in studying the recipes, and from time to time begged for ingredients to cook himself, and placed his affection on other things to relieve the depression in his heart. Soon, Wei's obsession with recipes spread throughout Shu, and was even compiled into nursery rhymes and sung all over the world.

General Wei, like Ku Ding, picked up a kitchen knife and went to the battlefield. On the battlefield, the aroma wafts, take off the helmet and use it as a pot.

Before Jiang Wei came, he had heard a little about these things, and he gradually felt guilty. Sun Li is a man, and putting him under house arrest is more painful than killing him. Sun Li didn't turn his head, but he was familiar with this voice, which belonged to Jiang Wei's unique voice, and he said with a smile: "The general is here, Sun Li should cook some delicious dishes for you, wait a minute." With that, Sun Li turned around and went to the kitchen.

Jiang Wei said with a smile: "In the past, Liu Bei, Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty, lived in Xuchang, and picked up water and planted vegetables in the mansion every day. The dragon can be big and small, and it can rise and hide; The big one is the clouds and the fog, and the small one is hidden and hidden; The rising is soaring between the universe, and the hidden is lurking in the waves. Although we can't be dragons, don't we have the heart of the tiger roaring mountains and forests? ”

Sun Li obviously paused and said slowly: "The general of the defeated army has even lost his dignity, and the rest has become a joke." With that, he brought out five dishes from the kitchen, braised bamboo shoots in oil, and elbows in sauce...... There is also a can of tofu and wild mushroom soup.

Jiang Wei sat down at the table by himself, took out a pot of wine and poured it for Sun Li, and said, "How can I eat you for nothing, taste my pot of wine." Sun Li hesitated for a moment, drank it slowly, and as soon as the liquor entered his abdomen, it turned into a stream of hot tears and snatched out of his eyes. Sun Li muttered, "This wine is Congtai? ”

Jiang Wei nodded and said, "I bought it from a Jin merchant, how does the wine taste in my hometown?" "Sun Li only said: 'Eat vegetables.'" He raised his chopsticks and ate, a table of wine, during which both of them were silent, Sun Li was still digesting the meaning of the wine, and Jiang Wei was thinking about what position to arrange for Sun Li.

Suddenly, Sun Li broke the silence and said, "Jiang Wei, is what you said to me true that night in the street pavilion?" The Cao clan will have a catastrophe, nonsense, right? ”

Jiang Wei smiled, Sun Li's cooking skills were outstanding, and it seemed that he had to put him by his side: "Am I the kind of person who is not serious?" I have your pardon in my hand, and you can return to Wei at any time if I want to protect the Cao clan. ”

Sun Li's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Tonight, the purpose of your coming here is to recruit me?" I, Sun Li, would rather die than learn to betray the Great Wei. Jiang Wei sighed and said, "My lord has no intention of canonizing you as Hanchen, you are only subordinate to my command." Sun Li, if you don't want to be a waste here, then come with me to the northwest. I promise you that I will not force you to oppose the Wei State. ”

Half an hour later, Jiang Wei walked out of the courtyard, followed by a man in a purple robe. Huang Hao greeted these white-eared soldiers, so they just smiled and watched Jiang Wei leave, ignoring the purple robe behind him, and there was a corpse lying in the hall of the courtyard, and the next day the news of Sun Li's death spread throughout the Shu Kingdom, and the Han Emperor Liu Chan presided over the funeral in public, and ordered someone to build a delicate Nanmu coffin to bid farewell to Sun Li.

At the same time, Jiang Wei jumped into the carriage and walked on the road to Wenshan. In the huge carriage, there were three people, Jiang Wei was in the center, on the left was a scholar in a green robe, and on the right was a man with a black beard, who was Sun Li himself.

Jiang Wei smiled: "Let me introduce you, this is Ma Yan, and the word is young." It was he who came up with the strategy of the golden cicada to get out of its shell, presumably the entire Wenchen military generals of the entire Great Wei now think that you died of water and soil adaptation. Sun Li didn't have a smile on his face, the curse of the Cao clan was always pressing his nerves, and he said indifferently: "Where are we going next?" ”

"Wenshan, and then ...... The Mansion of the Governor of the Western Regions. ”

In the spring of the sixteenth year of Jianxing, Jiang Wei became the Taishou of Wenshan, the winter is gradually gone, the early spring is coming, everything is growing vigorously, showing a touch of vibrant green. However, Jiang Wei took office in the place of endless brown yellow, late winter and early spring is the season when yellow sand swept the earth, out of Zitong Jiang Wei developed a habit, pour a bucket of water every day to help the horse bathe, fold a bucket of water often to wash to brown yellow.

Along the way, Jiang Wei has silently cursed Liu Chan thousands of times in his heart, Wenshan is not as good as Tianshui, and it is even worse than the piece of Cheriji's old nest, but these are not the point, his arrival notice has long been sent to the civil officials in Wenshan, but they are greeted not by the officials, but by the long knives in the hands of the horse bandits.

In order to save time, Jiang Wei wanted to take the first step, so he only brought no more than ten guards with him, and this horse bandit saw that there were hundreds of people, surrounding Jiang Wei and others, Ma Ming gradually stopped, and a big man in the crowd rode out on horseback, and said in unfamiliar Chinese: "I opened this road, hand over the money, grandpa, I will spare your life." ”
