Liu Bei's mansion in Xiangyang, Jingzhou.

"Two military advisors, are the soldiers and horses ready?"

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong had already completed their inspections at this time and returned to Liu Bei's side.

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he arched his hand and said: "Rest assured, the lord has already dispatched all the soldiers and horses, just wait for the news from His Majesty Xu Du, we can send troops to Yingchuan Runan, and divert the attention of Cao's army in Yanyu and other places for His Majesty, so that the Son of Heaven can go south." ”

Liu Bei nodded and said: "There are two military advisors to help arrange, and it is most reassuring!" This time, the Son of Heaven suddenly sent a book, intending to go south, which was really unexpected, I don't know what the two of them saw, the Son of Heaven left Xu Du to come to Xiangyang this time, what are the chances of winning? ”

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan, and just wanted to speak, as if he suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look at Pang Tong and smiled: "Shiyuan, in your opinion, how is this matter?" ”

Pang Tong arched his hand and said: "Lord Qi, the secret decree sent by Fu Guozhang is detailed, and the timing and plan for the Son of Heaven to get out of Xuchang this time are explained in detail. ”

"Eight points?!" Liu Bei nodded and said with a smile: "So very good, the Son of Heaven has been imprisoned in Xuchang for many years, bullied by Cao thieves, although he has the heart to help the Han family, and entered Xudu to rescue the Son of Heaven, how can he not be able to do it, fortunately, His Majesty is smart, and he has tried his courage for many years, and he can finally break out and get out of trouble, and he is very comforted!" This time, we must welcome the Son of Heaven into Xiangyang, and I ask the two gentlemen to plan this matter with all their hearts. ”

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong surrendered together.

After the three of them discussed some specific details of the car, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong temporarily retired and went to other places to arrange the arrangement.

Out of the main hall, Zhuge Liang quickly walked two steps to catch up with Shi Yuan, and shouted: "Shi Yuan! ”

Pang Tong stood still and turned his head to look at him: "What is Kong Ming's call?" ”

Seeing that his tone was not salty or light, Zhuge Liang was slightly stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Shiyuan." Since the last time you came back from the fight with Yuan Shang, your attitude towards Liang seemed to be cold. ”

Pang Tong's eyebrows raised slightly: "Really?" Why didn't I feel it? ”

Zhuge Liang was helpless.

He knows the current suffering of Pang Tong, he is as famous as himself, how can he be unlucky, after arriving under Liu Bei's account, he has been the deputy military division, shorter than himself, he has helped Liu Bei take down Jingzhou's great merit, the problem is that Pang Tong has not had any decent significant credit so far, and finally trapped Yuan Shang with the fire phoenix array last time. was also broken by Yuan Jun's formation master, and he ate the loss of the opponent's gossip array, but he was still saved by himself.

Zhuge Liang knows the distress in Pang Tong's heart, this classmate friend is now holding back his strength and wants to compete with himself! Of course, Zhuge Liang is not afraid that Pang Tong will leave in a fit of anger, he understands that Pang Tong is not that kind of person, but Feng Xiao is naturally arrogant, and at this moment he is eager to make meritorious contributions, and it is normal to be a little estranged from himself.

But Zhuge Liang is not afraid of anything else now. I'm afraid that Pang Tong will always face the world with such a breath and there will be mistakes, and ordinary enemies will be forgotten, but if you compete with powerful people like Yuan Shang and Sima Yi with the psychology of competing for merit, you will lose your life if you are not careful. Regret for eternity.

It's just that Zhuge Liang can't say this, he is afraid that the more he says it, the worse it will be, and the more he says it, the worse it will be.

Putting these thoughts behind him for the time being, Zhuge Liang said in a low voice: "Shiyuan." Do you think that this time the Son of Heaven suddenly issued an edict to go south to Xiangyang, revealing something strange? ”

Pang Tong raised his sparse eyebrows and glared at his gourd eyes: "What's weird?" A certain family thinks it's normal! ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "Is it normal?" Think about it. For so many years, everything that the Son of Heaven has done in the hands of the Cao family has been nothing extraordinary, just take the matter of breaking his fingers and repairing the edict back then, it was simply a fool's move, how could he make such a careful plan and arrangement in the blink of an eye, Shiyuan, don't you think it's strange? ”

Pang Tong thought for a while and said, "After you say this, it's true, presumably these plans are not ideas that the Son of Heaven came up with himself...... Could it be that it is over? ”

Zhuge Liang immediately denied: "After Fu is not a talent who is stable and stable, behind the bright Son of Heaven, there must be strange people." ”

Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang's tone paused, and said, "Shiyuan, do you think it will be...... He? He is now in Xudu. ”

Pang Tong's face changed, he thought about it, and said, "After you said this, it's really unbelievable!" Eighty percent of this was done by him. Unexpectedly, he had been dormant in Xu Capital for two years, and he still couldn't hold it back. ”

Zhuge Liang sighed and said: "When the imperial uncle fell, he was the first to come to the imperial uncle among our water mirror students, at that time, Yuan Shang was in the three-year recuperation policy, and Cao Cao's attention was almost in the south, but he used tricks to earn him away, and now it has become a resentment for the ages, presumably he must be very bitter in his heart." ”

Pang Tong said: "If it's him, it's even better!" Although his heart is in Cao Ying, but his heart has always been towards us, otherwise he would not have made a plan to let the Son of Heaven leave Xuchang this time, if he really ushered in the Son of Heaven, and then find him back, the three of us join forces, look at the world, and ask Cao Zhi, Yuan Shang, Sun Quan and others, what are you afraid of? ”

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan and said, "I'm afraid that he will encounter a big change, and his heart will also change......

"Kong Ming!" Pang Tong frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "You are a person, everything is good, but you are too cautious, you like to do everything step by step, if you can't even trust him, who else can we trust in this world?" A certain family hopes that he is behind the Son of Heaven, that is the best! ”

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

The location of the negotiation between Yuan and Cao was to find a camp from the middle point of Liyang and Baima, and the respective camps of the two armies were displayed ten miles behind the north and south sides of the camp.

The lords of both sides will meet here, and each will bring his important ministers and escorts with him.

When Yuan Shang led his personal guards and a group of accompanying civil officials into the negotiation tent, the Cao side was already waiting there.

But I saw Cao Zhi sitting in the middle of the left side of the camp, and Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Dong Zhao, Liu Ye, Chen Qun, Wang Lang, Xi Xi and other staff members were lined up on the left and right, all of whom were scheming. Sharp-toothed and sharp-tongued.

Yuan Shang was surrounded by Sima Yi, Xiao Ji, Guo Tu, Tian Feng, Judge, Fu Zhu, Xun Chen, Deng Chang and others, and the civil officials on both sides were supported by military generals. It stands on the east and west sides, and the barriers are distinct.

As soon as Yuan Shang sat down, he saw a person flash out of the crowd behind Cao Zhi, with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, and a roe deer, although he deliberately put on a face, he still couldn't hide his innate lewd face.

Among the Yuan army, he saw Tian Feng and judged it. The faces of the older generation of courtiers such as Frustrated Professor, Xiao Ji, Guo Tu and others changed instantly!

But when he saw the roe deer-headed rat-eyed man go to the middle of the two directions, he cleared his throat. He shouted in his shrill voice: "Prime Minister Cao Cheng and Yuan Weiwei are discussing politics here today, and the two sides should be in ......"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Tian Feng, who had the most irritable personality in the Yuan Army's strategist group, suddenly got up. shouted angrily: "Xu You, you thief! What other faces appear in front of us! Don't get out of here! ”

Yuan Shang was surprised when he heard this, and looked the man up and down a few times!

Xu You! It turned out to be him?

The Battle of Guandu that year. Turned his back on Yuan Shao and offered Cao Cao, the culprit who led to the defeat of Yuan's army!

Xu You rolled his eyes and said dissatisfiedly: "Tian Yuanhao, what you said is really funny, I am Prime Minister Cao Cheng's important minister, the two armies are negotiating major matters, why can't I be here?" ”

Tian Feng sneered and said, "Shameless, dare to rap here?" ”

Yuan Shang raised his hand to block Tian Feng's words, turned his head to look at Cao Zhi and said: "Prime Minister Cao, Xu You's identity, you must know better than anyone else, you let him preside over for you here, didn't you deliberately disgust Yuan?" ”

Cao Zhi smiled faintly and said, "Yuan Weiwei, Xu Yu is also an important minister under my account, and he is also a subordinate official of the imperial court, so it makes sense that he is qualified to stand here?" Why did Yuan Weiwei not tolerate him alone? ”

Yuan Shang shook his head and said: "You and I are both important ministers of the imperial court, and we also belong to a feudal town, and the two families are negotiating, and the servants should be all innocent and decent gentlemen's ministers, such as Xu You, there is no need to stay in this camp, right?" ”

When Cao Zhi heard this, he smiled and said, "Yuan Weiwei, I don't want to hear what you say?" What's wrong with Xu You, why isn't he a gentleman's minister? Why is he misbehaving? ”

Yuan Shang smiled faintly, turned his head to look at Xu You, and said: "Xu You is for his own selfish interests, betraying his master for glory, disloyal and unjust, what kind of character does such a person talk about?" ”

Cao Zhi raised his eyebrows and said to Xu You: "Ziyuan, have you ever betrayed the Lord and asked for glory?" ”

Xu You's righteous words on his face: "There is no such thing!" ”

As soon as they heard the words 'there is no such thing', Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Xiao Ji, Guo Tu and other former ministers of Hebei seemed to be caught in some kind of memory, you look at me, I look at you, and shook their heads secretly.

Cao Zhi heard this: "Did you hear that? Xu You said that there was no such thing! ”

Yuan Shang raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "He was against my father and surrendered to the enemy, isn't this a traitor seeking glory?" ”

But listening to Cao Zhi's side, an old voice sounded faintly, saying: "The co-lord of the world is the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty." is under the majesty of Xu Du, Xu Yu is a minister of the Han family, and his lord is only the Son of Heaven! Your father is just a courtier of the Son of Heaven, and he is on the same page as Xu You, so why do you want to go against it? ”

Yuan Shang turned his head to look at the old man.

Sima Yi came behind him and said in a low voice: "Lord, that old man is Jia Xu!" I went to Xudu once, and I knew the old man, the old guy was so tight! ”

Speaking of this, Sima Yi paused in his words and said in a low voice: "Cao Zhi brought Xu You here, it is purely disgusting to us, the lord must not be confused, or it is important to get down to business." ”

Yuan Shang nodded, and suddenly said: "Okay, since you want this birdman to accompany you here, then I don't object, let's talk now!" ”

Cao Zhi nodded and said, "That's the best!" ”

Yuan Shang turned his head and glanced at the trial.

The trial meeting coughed lightly and got up.

"In this meeting, my lord has three things to say, first, I ask the imperial court to immediately issue an edict, spread it all over the world, and canonize my lord as the great Sima general, Taifu, and lead Jizhou pastor! Command the world's soldiers and horses, and command the world's kings! Second, immediately invite the Son of Heaven to drive and move the capital to Yecheng! Third, Cao Zhi resigned as prime minister, Zhuo Li'an Pinghou, called the minister and the tribute, served every year, and always served as a brother's help, only these three things, and one less is not to talk about! ”
