The sky was bleak, Pang Shanmin took Zhu Rong and Zhuge Liang away from the Taishou Mansion, Pang Shanmin wanted to go to the inn to stay, but was blocked by Zhuge Liang's words, Zhuge Liang has set up a house in Changsha, invited Pang Shanmin to go with him, Pang Shanmin happily followed, took Zhu Rong, all the way to the south of the city.

Seeing Zhuge Liang's frowns, Pang Shanmin didn't know how to explain, Zhu Rong looked around all the way, but he was full of interest, whether it was in Nanban or Wuximan, the village was silent in the evening, and Changsha City, about to enter the night, there were people shouting and selling goods on the side of the road, the street inn was also lit up, Xiao Er stood at the door of the store, greeting the merchants who came and went......

Zhuge Liang was silent for a long time, thinking about how the military and political affairs in Jingnan should change after Liu Bei entered Xinye, but Pang Shanmin didn't want Zhuge Liang to work too hard, so he turned his head and said to Zhuge Liang: "Brother I don't know now, Kong Ming can have a family......

"Huh?" When Zhuge Liang heard this, he was slightly stunned, and when he saw Pang Shanmin smiling, Zhuge Liang quickly understood Pang Shanmin's thoughts, and then he no longer thought about those troubled things, and said to Pang Shanmin: "When my father was alive, he had a good relationship with the Huang family in Xiangyang, and he also told me about family affairs, but the Miss Huang family is not yet married, so Liang is not married now. ”

"I see." Pang Shanmin nodded, and said in his heart that Miss Huang Family is Huang Yueying, but Pang Shanmin is also curious in his heart, what is this strange woman who can be in harmony with Zhuge Liang, thinking of this, Pang Shanmin couldn't help asking: "Has Kong Ming seen that Miss Huang Family?" ”

"I haven't seen it yet, but the Huang family is a scholarly family, presumably Miss Huang is also knowledgeable, when Liang was in Xiangyang, the family was poor and had no long things, but Mr. Huang treated Liang very well, so Liang had already decided in his heart that he would marry Miss Huang in the future, and he would treat her well." Zhuge Liang said, the two of them have come to a simple house in the south corner of the city, Zhuge Liang pushed the door in, and said to Pang Shanmin: "The humble house is simple, and I hope that my brother Haihan is still in sight." ”

"Kong Ming is too polite, although you and I are classmates, but we are like brothers, with Kong Ming's talent, even Qionglou Yuyu can live, in the final analysis, it is still for my brother to drag Kong Ming, so that Kong Ming is busy with Jingnan military and political affairs, and has no time to deal with these mundane things." Pang Shanmin said, Zhuge Liang shook his head and smiled: "But it's not, if it weren't for his brother, Liang would not be able to display his talent now, this time to Jingnan, in addition to the eldest prince is quite tired, for the development of Jingnan's military and politics, Liang has been very satisfied with the development of the military and political in Jingnan, in recent days, Liang has often thought about it, what the elder brother said before is to use wealth and grain to control the military and political affairs, and now he has also gained a lot, and now it is rare to meet his brother in his leisure, Liang wants to ask his brother to give him some advice." ”

"Are you two sour? Staying at the door and not going to enter the house? Zhu Rong watched the two talk eloquently, his heart was irritable, and he said to Zhuge Liang: "There is ...... The visitor is a guest, and you, a scholar, still need to take care of the meal! ”

Zhuge Liang and Pang Shanmin looked at each other when they heard this, but for a moment, both of them laughed, Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly: "What the little girl said is exact, the person who came is a guest, Liang will go to prepare dinner." ”

Zhuge Liang's craftsmanship is worse than Shi Tao, but Zhu Rong still eats with relish, after eating, Pang Shanmin drove Zhu Rong to the guest room, and went to the bedroom with Kong Ming, the two of them each carried a jar of water and wine, sat on the edge of the couch, looked at each other and smiled.

"Now it's just you and my brothers, Kong Ming has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Pang Shanmin's eyes were clear, and he said to Zhuge Liang: "Presumably, these days, Kong Ming has been planning for our future for a long time. ”

"My brother still knows me." Zhuge Liang smiled when he heard this: "Liang never thought that Jingnan had such a big change under our control, Changsha had thousands of soldiers and horses in a few months, and there was a new naval army, such a situation, thanks to my brother's golden technique." ”

When Pang Shanmin heard this, he smiled and said nothing, Zhuge Liang said: "Now that Guiyang has been pacified, Wuling, Lingling two counties, under the rule of Yu Gongwei and Zhouping, there must be no chaos, and now Jingnan's military and political affairs are on the right track, but this eldest prince has always been too uncompetitive." ”

Pang Shanmin laughed when he heard this: "Didn't we already discuss it before, coercing the son to order Jingxiang?" Could it be that during this time, Kong Ming has any new ideas? ”

"Not really." Zhuge Liang shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Although Liu Qi is a little stubborn, he is also sincere in treating people, and now the government affairs of Changsha are from the hands of Liang, presumably the eldest prince has some understanding, and his position is a little embarrassing." ”

"The eldest prince is resentful?" Pang Shanmin was stunned when he heard this, but Zhuge Liang sighed: "That's not true, the eldest prince is a contented person, but in this way, it is my brother and I who are a little villainous in vain." ”

"We can treat him well, Kong Ming don't have to worry about this matter, Yu Xiangyang brought the eldest prince here, it was to save his life, since the eldest prince is not the posture of the hero, then let him be a worry-free 'lord' is ......" Pang Shanmin smiled: "Moreover, you and I can also hope that the eldest prince will be angry and strong, anyway, this lord, before the death of Jingsheng Gong, we can't do without him." ”

"I finally found out now that my brother weighs the pros and cons and always ......solves it in the way of business," Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said: "Although these methods are biased, they always make Liang unable to blame, Liang prides himself on reading poetry and books, knows military affairs, and understands government affairs, but he often can't understand his brother's previous practices, and now it seems that there is really no end to learning." ”

"As I said before, we have our classmates who have their own strengths, and as for the shortcomings, don't work hard, just leave it to others." Pang Shanmin said with a smile: "Kong Ming always wants to be comprehensive, and in my opinion, it is a little pedantic. ”

Zhuge Liang didn't think it was angry, nodded, took a sip of the wine, and said to Pang Shanmin: "When Yu Taishou Mansion, Liang still had something to say in his heart, as mentioned earlier, Liu Bei and Yuan Zhi want to try Jiangxia, we still need to be wary of this matter, as far as I know, if something happens to Jiangxia, then Gan Ning and Su Fei have a good relationship, and they will not sit idly by, so Liang thinks that I am equal to Jiangdong's transaction of paper, and it should be changed." ”

"Change?" Pang Shanmin was stunned when he heard this, and said to Zhuge Liang: "What kind of change, is it not possible to increase the price of bamboo paper?" ”

"Otherwise, the cost of bamboo paper is extremely low, and now the profits are huge, Liang has been satisfied, and the treasury finance is enough to support the military and government of Jingnan, Liang is thinking, the next time he trades with the Nalu family, can my brother come forward and inform the person in charge of the Nalu family, I don't want money in Changsha, as long as grain and grass!" After Zhuge Liang said that, Pang Shanmin was puzzled: "My Jingnan is short of food now?" ”

"There is no shortage, even if it is enough to deal with the displaced people." Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "It's just that my brother has ever thought about it, that Lu Su is in charge of Jiangdong's money and grain, if in the future, I and Jiangdong use grain and rice as a bargaining chip, before Jiangdong attacks Jiangxia, we can also trade with Lu Su The amount of grain and rice, as well as the attitude of the Lu family when the goods are delivered, to judge when Jiangdong will raise troops?" ”
