Chapter 84: Liu Bei's Edict

Liu Bei's summons

The feast continued lively; Zhuge Liang became more and more satisfied with Deng Ai, and the more the two talked, the more energetic they became, as if they had met a bosom friend.

"Master, the owner of the horse Bo begs to see," a family member reported.

The owner of the horse is thin, who else will there be besides Ma Tan, it seems that he will be gilded when he comes back from a trip to Jiangdong, and he is actually the master of the Prime Minister's Mansion; Zhuge Qiao thought to himself.

"Pass him in, and add another table seat," Zhuge Liang thought.

After a while, a man dressed in green clothes and wearing a black scarf walked in quickly;

"Ma Tan meets the prime minister" came to Zhuge Liang's table and saluted, his face seemed to be happy;

"Young Chang, what is the so-called matter here," Zhuge Liang asked

"Just to come to see Captain Yao, I lost the news when I said goodbye to Wuchang City in the past, which really made Zai Xia worry for a while; Today, I heard that Bo Song has returned, and I have come to explore each other, and I have solved the knot in my heart," Ma Jian said softly with his fists clenched.

But it also surprised Zhuge Qiao, he didn't expect this Ma Jian to care so much about himself, which doesn't make sense! He and Ma Jian are just officials in the same dynasty and do their own duties, there is no need for them to go home Zhang Fei has not come to visit him, Ma Jian is the first to come; Could it be that he had other plans, thinking that Zhuge Qiao shook his head, maybe he would think more about Ma Jian because he had a prejudice.

"Bo Song, I am so concerned about you, and I don't thank you yet," Zhuge Liang said to Zhuge Qiao, who was pondering.

was woken up by Zhuge Liang's call; "Brother Young Chang is concerned, Bo Song is grateful," Zhuge Qiao hugged his fist at Ma Yan.

"Bo Song, where is it, if you hadn't fought for Wuchang City in the past; How can there be a year's tax in Jingzhou, and how can there be His Majesty's trust in me," Ma Jian helped Zhuge Qiao and said euphemistically.

"Brother Youchang is serious, and you also have the credit for this, if you hadn't said Jiangdong Wuwen in advance, you would have been right, where would they pay attention" Zhuge Qiao said with a smile;

Ma Jian inadvertently cast a contemptuous look, "If it weren't for Bo Song's heavenly debate, where would there be the credit of my Ma Youchang," Ma Jian sighed softly.

After speaking; Zhuge Qiao was stunned, now that Zhuge Liang is also here, if he asks himself about other knowledge, he will not be embarrassed to leave.

"Luckily, I usually like the Book of Songs, so I also have some understanding of it," Zhuge Qiao explained in a low voice;

Suddenly, Zhuge Qiao thought of something, and said slowly, "By the way, how did Your Majesty deal with Fu Shiren in the end";

It can't be helped; can only find a random topic to avoid first, and then say that he is also curious to guess in his heart, according to the romance; Fu Shiren and Mi Fang were slashed by Guan Xing with a knife to pay tribute to Guan Yu, but they didn't know what Liu Bei would do with him at this time; After all, Fu Shiren is also a person who has followed Liu Bei for many years and has never given up, and he can be regarded as a veteran-level person.

"Fu Shiren was personally escorted by His Majesty to the tomb of the second general, summoned hundreds of civil and military officials, and made Guan Xing inconsiderate, Fu Shiren's screams lasted for an hour before he died" Ma Liang recalled which picture and said with some excitement;

"Well done! Fu Shiren's immortality is not enough to calm His Majesty's anger, nor is it enough to make the people angry," Zhuge Qiao said in a deep voice.

Because Zhuge Qiao knew the trauma caused by Fu Shiren to Shu Han, and also knew that Liu Bei's reason for withdrawing this time was: the second brother's revenge has been avenged, Pan Zhang has been beheaded, and Fu Shiren has also been captured; So if Fu Shiren doesn't die, there is no way to end it, but I didn't expect that he would be cut off like Romance.

"Youchang, sit down when you come, a table has been prepared for you" Zhuge Liang pointed to a table that had just been prepared.

"Thank you, Prime Minister," Ma Tan walked straight in the direction of the seat without refusing.

It's just that when he walked towards the table, his eyes stopped on the wolf-toothed soldier, but how could he know; In fact, ordinary soldiers can also participate in the same banquet as the prime minister of the dynasty.

With Ma Tan's stunned eyes, the banquet returned to normal; But it also made Zhuge Qiao feel helpless, Zhuge Liang finally walked with Ma Yan, but he didn't know if there was still the continuation of the Battle of Jieting.

"Prime Minister, Your Majesty has an order, please ask Captain Zhuge to go to the palace to talk about it" A person who looked like a messenger in the palace walked in;

The news spread too quickly, and in less than two hours, His Majesty actually knew that I had returned to Chengdu; Zhuge Qiao pondered.

"Please reply to Your Majesty, Zhuge Qiao will enter the palace immediately," Zhuge Liang replied softly;

"Prime Minister, Your Majesty said: You want me to enter the palace with Captain Zhuge and I'll wait outside," the envoy replied slowly.

Zhuge Liang was shocked, he didn't expect Liu Bei to attach so much importance to Zhuge Qiao now, and he was summoned immediately when he returned to Chengdu, and he was still very anxious; It's just that Zhuge Liang doesn't know the biggest reason for Liu Bei's withdrawal.

As the envoy retreated, Zhuge Qiao came to Chen Qi's side: "Go back to the military camp outside the city later, Wu Tong has already led a large army back" and said softly;

It turned out that Zhuge Qiao had already given instructions when he left the Public Security City; Let Wu Tong and others return to Chengdu with the army after the end of the war, and then continue to camp in the previous base camp, after all, before Liu Bei has not given himself the power to transfer troops and send generals, why not have hundreds of his own personal guards; I just don't know if it will fall into the hands of others.

Chen Qi responded.

"Dad, since Your Majesty has an edict, the child will retire first;" Zhuge Qiao came to Zhuge Liang's side and saluted;

"Go ahead," Zhuge Liang whispered; From the look in his eyes, Zhuge Liang must have wondered why His Majesty valued a child who was only seventeen years old so much.

"Dad, I still have to take my brother to go, Your Majesty will ask me when the time comes, so I can explain the reason," Zhuge Qiao said slowly;

"But you must tell Your Majesty that Deng Ai has been taken in by me," Zhuge Liang said with a smile, and glanced at Deng Ai again.

Immediately, Zhuge Qiao and Deng Aibai said goodbye to Zhuge Liang and entered the palace with the envoy.

Leaving the excitement of these people at the banquet, "Prime Minister, it seems that Gongzi Ling has been favored by His Majesty, and he will soon become an important minister of my Shu Han; Ma Tan first congratulated the prime minister in advance," said Ma Tan, who picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Zhuge Liang responded slightly; is indeed still pondering, after all, Zhuge Qiao is still young now, if he becomes sharp at this time, will he be jealous of hundreds of officials, and there will be rumors against him, which will cause him a big disaster; Zhuge Liang pondered carefully.

Zhuge Qiao didn't know that his father was worried about him; But he was still thinking about his grand cause, how to assist Liu Bei to accomplish this matter, after all, he followed the strategy summarized by the wisdom that had surpassed nearly two thousand years.
