Those who serve in the middle serve in the middle. Originally, it was an additional official, but with this title, he could enter and exit the forbidden place, accompany the emperor, and have the meaning of an advisor. is more than 2,000 stones, the level is not low, and it is higher than the long history of Ma Yan's prime minister. However, this position is a typical position of dignity and inferiority, and there is no soldier under him, and there is no real power at all. What rights can an advisor have? The only advantage is that he is very close to the emperor, if he meets a powerful monarch, he can indirectly obtain power by influencing the emperor, but for Comrade Liu Chan, who is in power, he can only play with him.

has no power, but his reputation is high, for Wei Ba, a young man who has just been weakly crowned, it is already a young man's ambition to be able to join the army with 600 stones, and now he has jumped from joining the army to a servant with more than 2,000 stones, no matter how much credit he has, it is easy to make people jealous, of course, it is enough to reflect Zhuge Cheng's weight relative to him, no one can say that Zhuge Liang suppressed him, otherwise he will feel guilty.

Even Wei Ba would have felt so.

But Wei Ba didn't want to do anything. It's not because he doesn't have power, he hasn't reached the time to fight for power yet. He is still young, and he has time, so he can lie dormant for a few more years, wait for Zhuge Liang to die, and then fight for power with Ma Yan, Jiang Wan and others, and avoid Zhuge Liang, a god-level opponent. The purpose of his visit to Chengdu was to get close to Emperor Liu Chan and prepare for the future struggle for power.

But he didn't want to go as a servant.

First, the status of the waiter is too high, which is easy to attract people's attention, and the second is that the waiter is a palace attendant, and he has to live in the palace, and he only has a chance to rest for five days. And the Wei family's affairs have just begun. It was really not the right time for him to go to the palace to be an idle official.

However, this issue is not important, and he can accept that he will resign voluntarily in the future. The reason why it is necessary to accept and then resign, rather than reject it outright, naturally has subtleties in this. refusing directly is not giving Zhuge Liang face and refusing to reconcile. accepted and resigned, it has nothing to do with Zhuge Liang, it is his personal business, and maybe he can gain a humble reputation.

His hesitation, of course, is a superficial statement to show flattery.

"For your age. It's a bit heavy. However, your exploits are known to everyone, and I believe that no one will gossip. ”

Fei Yi briefly talked about the other people's rewards. Wu Yi was promoted from a rebellious general to a chariot general, made a marquis of Gaoyang, and still led the governor of Hanzhong. Meng Da was appointed as the general of Zhendong. Lingfang Ling is too guarded. Fengdu Tinghou. Wei Feng served as the general of Dangkou and sealed the inner marquis. Feng Jin was a general of Fubo, and he increased the number of households by 200. Guan Xing and Zhang Shao were respectively the left supervisor of Yulin and the right supervisor of Yulin, and they increased the number of 100 households. Fu Xing and Zhang Wei were both promoted to partial generals, subordinate to Wu Yi, and the Hanzhong Theater.

Wei Ba listened to them one by one, and Fei Yi asked him for his opinion, so he nodded and said yes. It's not that he's hypocritical, but this reward plan is really not revealed, there is nothing to say, Zhuge Liang is known for being fair, and he won't leave a handle in these aspects. The reason why he refused to take the responsibility of Dongwu was because he knew that Zhuge Liang would not impose this responsibility on his head unless he took the initiative to admit it.

"In addition to that, there is good news for you." Fei Yi said with a smile: "It's a happy event." ”

Wei Ba smiled: "Whose woman did the prime minister help my brother find?" ”

"Your brother's relatives, the prime minister has already arranged, I heard that it is Xi Zhen's young daughter, the prime minister has sent someone to ask, it is estimated that there will be results soon."

Wei Ba was very satisfied. The Xi family is a family of Xiangyang, and according to legend, they are the descendants of the ancient Xi Kingdom. Xi Zhen is a famous man in Xiangyang, as famous as Pang Tong, and he is still above Ma Liang, and he is the official to Guanghan Taishou. Xi Zhen's younger sister married Pang Tong's younger brother Pang Lin. Such a family, presumably Mrs. Zhang will also be satisfied.

"Sure enough, it's good news." Wei Ba said with a smile. Zhuge Liang really couldn't bear it, and as soon as he asked Feng to go in to find a suitable person, Zhuge Liang couldn't stand it.

"That's not the good news I'm talking about." Fei Yi shook his head mysteriously.

Wei Ba was puzzled.

"The prime minister did not agree with you to set up Xiahou Hui as his wife because of the Han and Wei dynasties, so he chose a more haode marriage for you."

Wei Ba was stunned: "Me? ”

"Hmm." Fei Yi smiled while looking at Wei Ba's expression. Wei Ba was really surprised, which one is Zhuge Liang singing? I'm addicted to being a matchmaker for Wei Feng, and you want to be a matchmaker for me? I don't know which one it is? But I think it's still within the Jingxiang system.

"You can't guess." Fei Yi sold Guanzi for a while, and Zuihou threw out an explosive news: "It's the daughter of Sun Quan, the king of Wu." ”

Wei Ba was suddenly blindsided, and he opened his eyes to Fei Yi, not knowing what to say.

Fei Yi thought he was happy, so he couldn't help but pout, and continued: "It's taken a lot of thought to do this. To tell you the truth, I made a special trip to Wuchang for this matter, and I just rushed back yesterday. The hardships of the journey go without saying. ”

Wei Ba calmed down instead, and looked at Fei Yi quietly: "I'm strange, doesn't Sun Quan hate me, how could he agree to marry his daughter to me?" ”

"You've finally got the point." Fei Yi sighed: "Sun Quan can agree for two reasons, one is that he himself knows that if he really wants to go to war, he may not be able to bargain, which is harmful." The second is that the prime minister promised to hire 300 war horses, which is a benefit. Sun Quan sacrificed harm for profit, so he agreed to make peace. ”

Wei Ba gasped. Three hundred war horses? What a dowry this is, even if it is to buy Sun Quan's daughter, this is enough. Don't look at Shu Han's occupation of Guanzhong, but Longyou is still in Cao Wei's hands, and three hundred war horses are also a great gift for Shu Han. No wonder Sun Quan agreed. Sun Quan spent so much trouble buying horses from Liaodong, and only bought hundreds of horses before and after? Zhou Yu defeated Cao Ren in Nanjun that year, got hundreds of war horses, and specially selected 300 horses to give to Sun Quan, which was regarded as the biggest trophy. Zhuge Liang is really generous, and took 300 war horses as a dowry.

"You know now that Cheng is heavier than yours, right?" Fei Yi said with some envy: "Zhuge Qiao married a girl from the Ma family, and the dowry was not even one percent. ”

Wei Ba didn't speak for a long time.

"How? If you have no opinion, I will reply to the prime minister and handle the matter as soon as possible. ”

Wei Ba shook his head: "Fei Jun, I understand the kindness of the prime minister and you." But I still have to ask my parents for advice on this matter. Of course, this marriage event depends on the orders of the parents, right? ”

Fei Yihaha smiled and nodded yes.

After sending Fei Yi away, Wei Ba immediately returned to the room and told Xiahou Hui about it. Xiahou Hui was stunned for a moment, and then picked up the needle and thread again, embroidering it with a needle. Wei Ba sat on the sidelines, motionless as he looked at her fluttering eyelashes. Xiahou Hui was uncomfortable with him, and his hand shook and pierced his fingertips. She put down the embroidery frame angrily, pinched her fingertips, and sighed faintly.

"Husband, you can ask me about other things, but you shouldn't ask me about this matter."

Wei Ba deliberately blinked his eyes and forced a smile: "Why? ”

"You don't have to ask, I'm sure I won't approve of it. However, no matter how good my reasons are, others will think that I am deliberately sabotaging your good deeds for my own sake. ”

"You haven't said it, why do you think others will misunderstand?"

"Do you really want to hear it?" Xiahou Hui turned his head and looked at Wei Ba hatefully. Wei Ba nodded, reached out and pulled Xiahou Hui's finger and held it in his mouth. Xiahou Hui was taken aback, and hurriedly withdrew his hand, but was held back by Wei Ba.

"You let go! In broad daylight, they are not afraid of being seen. ”

"What's wrong with broad daylight?" Wei Ba looked dazed: "I'm just helping you suck your fingers, and I'm not prostituting during the day." ”

"You still say." Xiahou Hui blushed and glared at him angrily: "Do you think the so-called daytime prostitution is that?" ”

"I thought it was." Wei Ba shrugged and said disapprerovingly. In fact, he also knows that the so-called etiquette in this era is already a bit harsh, and the intimate behavior between husband and wife can be classified as obscenity. The so-called lewdness means excessive.

Xiahou Hui's face was flushed with shame, but he couldn't screw Wei Ba, so he had to prick up his ears and listen to the movements around him, but unfortunately the summer was scorching, and even the people were looking for a place to cool off, except for her rapid breathing, there was only the sound of panicked heartbeat in the house.

Xiahou Hui was helpless, so he had to squint at Wei Ba and said, "You really want to listen to my opinion?" ”

"Of course." Wei Ba nodded solemnly: "Actually, to be honest, I also feel that something is wrong, but I can't think of anything wrong, so I have to ask you to help me with the staff officer." ”

"My husband is a fan of the authorities." Xiahou Hui withdrew his hand, held it in his palm, and said lightly: "As soon as this marriage is completed, the great kindness of the minister to you can be said to be known to everyone in the world, and if you have any disobedience in the future, it will be ungrateful." ”

Wei Ba nodded, he could think of this question.

"Second, for the prime minister and a group of old ministers, Wei is a national thief, but for a large number of juniors, Wu is a feud. If you become Sun Quan's son-in-law, will they still be able to share your heart in the future? Without their support for you, how could the prime minister give up the existing Jihua this time? This is a plan to raise the soup to stop the boiling, and it is better to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle. ”

Wei Ba was shocked, and understood the reason why he was not only not happy, but was a little vigilant just now. If he becomes Sun Quan's son-in-law, will Feng Jin and the others support him again? Certainly not.

"And Zuihou a little." Xiahou Hui looked at Wei Ba word by word: "Although Han and Wu are allies, they will inevitably fight on the battlefield in the future." If you become Sun Quan's son-in-law, how can you be in power, especially in the military? At that time, I am afraid that not only you, but even my father will be deprived of his military power. Your father, son, and brothers, you can only fight against Wei in the future, and you can't fight against Wu, which is probably one of the reasons why Sun Quan is willing to agree. ”

Wei Ba's eyes tightened and he was silent. After a while, he said again: "Now that the prime minister has reached an agreement with Sun Quan, if I don't accept it, wouldn't I be ignorant?" ”

"This matter, where is your turn to agree or not." Xiahou Hui sneered: "The order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the prime minister doesn't need your consent at all, he is afraid that he has already sent someone to Guanzhong to obtain the consent of his father." As for this, I think Mrs. Huang will soon tell her mother the great news. (To be continued......)
