Chapter 828: Withered Glory

In fact, Li Feng is not as stupid as Fei Yi imagined, but he really can't take the time to pay attention to these now, and for the first time he served as the Taishou of a county, many affairs followed, and he was busy all at once.

It was easy to send Buqi away, and Li Feng suddenly felt that Nanjun was empty, except for those soldiers under him, he couldn't even look at the figures of the people. But isn't it, from the fourteenth year of Jian'an when Zhou Yu attacked Jiangling, to the present more than 20 years, first Wei and Wu fought, then Han and Wu fought, and then Han and Wei fought, and then LΓΌ Meng attacked Jingzhou and fought with Wei again, and Nanjun never stopped. Nanjun extends in all directions, the transportation is convenient, and it is easy for the people to flee, and they have long fled so that they can't see the figures.

No one, how to defend the ground? Li Feng made a difficulty. After thinking about it, he had to go to Meng Da and Wei Ba for help, Meng Da didn't have much to do, he didn't have a few people himself, Nanyang is now sparsely populated, and it is not much better than Nanjun. However, Wei Ba did Li Feng a great favor, he transferred more than 50,000 households from the pirates and river thieves recruited by Xiahou Xuan and Shanyue recruited by Deng Ai to enrich several counties around Jiangling. With these more than 50,000 households, Gangneung suddenly became lively, at least like that, and it was no longer so deserted.

If you have people, you can tuntian, and if you have food, you can have soldiers. Wei Ba suggested that Li Feng strike while the iron was hot and transfer the Xiangyang Navy Division to Jiangling to garrison. This may reduce Meng Da's burden on the one hand, and strengthen Li Feng's strength on the other hand. In addition to Wei Ba's newly formed Jiaozhou Naval Division, the Xiangyang Naval Division can be said to be the strongest naval division in the world, and it will inevitably be the main force to defeat Wu in the future. Take these men under your own command. Li Feng naturally couldn't ask for it, so he immediately acted according to the plan.

In addition to transferring the Xiangyang Naval Division, Li Feng listened to Wei Ba's suggestion and enriched more than 3,000 refined materials from those pirates to the Xiangyang Naval Division. For this reason, Wei Ba sent some warships robbed from Yuzhang to Li Feng, and this generous gift made Li Feng ecstatic and grateful. Just seeing the warship built by Wu Jun with his own eyes, Li Feng confirmed the leak of the warship Jishu, and couldn't help but grit his teeth at Zhuge Liang again.

With the great assistance of Wei Ba. South County quickly got on the right track. However, there has been little progress in tracking down the leaks of the warship Jishu. After more than half a month of investigation, it is basically certain that this matter has nothing to do with Xiangyang Sailor, and the suspicion finally fell on Zhuge Liang in Guanzhong. Li Feng did not hesitate to report the matter to Li Yan, the general in Chengdu, and demanded that Zhuge Liang be held accountable for this matter. He believes. Li Yan will definitely seize this opportunity. Completely take Zhuge Liang's military power over.

Busy with official business every day. Li Feng was very excited, even a little excited, at such a time. Even if he was worried, it was impossible for him to turn his face with Wei Ba and do something that made Wei Ba unhappy. In order to express his gratitude, he also specially asked for credit for Wei Ba, urging the General's Mansion to reward the meritorious soldiers, so that they could celebrate the New Year happily. Especially for those newly relocated people, whether they can live well in the first year will have a very important impact on Li Feng's future political achievements.

Li Feng, who is in power, is full of ambition. When Fei Yi passed through Jiangling, he specially invited Fei Yi to the banquet, and at the banquet, he asked Fei Yi about his trip to Guanzhong. Of course, Fei Yi couldn't tell him the truth, so he only said that he was going to Guanzhong to collect debts from Zhuge Liang. Li Feng also knew that Zhuge Liang owed Wei Ba a sum of money, and when he heard this, he was convinced, insinuating, accusing Sang of scolding Huai and accusing Zhuge Liang, saying that he would rather be friendly with Sun Quan than support his own people, which is really a big problem.

Fei Yi felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, Zhuge Liang was forced into a dilemma by Wei Ba and Ma Yan, which was sad enough, and now he was ridiculed by a fool like Li Feng, it was really a pearl covered with dust, and rubble reigned. What made him most helpless was that he obviously looked down on Li Feng at all, but he knew Wei Ba's intentions very well, as one of Wei Ba's henchmen, he had to make a false deal with Li Feng.

This experience was really not interesting, and Fei Yi left Jiangling early the next morning as if he had fled, crossed the river, and rushed to Dongting Lake.

Wei Ba was still in Dongting, when he saw Fei Yi and the fox fur that Fei Yi brought back, he didn't say anything, just sighed, and his eyebrows were full of indescribable loss.

Soon, Wei Ba set off to leave Yueyang, and he was going back to Jiaozhou to spend the winter. Fei Yi, on the other hand, accepted a new task, took Wei Ba to prepare a haode gift, and rushed to Chengdu.

……

Chengdu has been noisy.

Wei Ba used eleven days to force Sun Quan to surrender with a thunderous force, forcing Sun Quan to declare himself a vassal to Shu Han, and also ceding Nanjun and Changsha, which was a result that many people did not expect. Prior to this, this war had been discussed with great fanfare for a long time, and it was so long that people were a little tired, thinking that Zuihou might not be able to do it, and everyone gave way and got along.

No one expected that Wei Ba would make a three-sided offensive deployment and subdue Sun Quan with lightning speed. By the time the ministers in the court knew that the war had broken out, the war had actually ended, and Sun Deng, the prince of Wu, was already on the ship to Chengdu.

It was a sudden victory, jaw-droppingly fast.

The prestige of the great general Li Yan has reached a new peak, and the once prominent Prime Minister's Mansion has completely declined. Even if there are a few people who are upset about Zhuge Liang, they can only sigh in private, and no one dares to say it on the surface.

In the face of this situation, Shi Jiangwan and Zhang Yi, the governors of the prefecture, were even more cautious and did not dare to make any out-of-the-ordinary moves. And the momentum of the General's Mansion is in full swing, and no one is difficult to do.

When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty accused Zhuge Liang, Li Yan stood up and justifiably defended Zhuge Liang. He said that Zhuge Liang was not as unbearable as some people said, and his exploits were obvious to all, but it was only because of overwork, physical exhaustion, and inability to go to the front line in person that he was defeated by the state. For the sake of the country, the prime minister should be allowed to return to Chengdu to recuperate and recuperate, so that he can serve Bixia more haode.

Li Yan said it very well, but the meaning of the words was equally clear. As soon as he said this, those who heard the wind and made the rudder immediately set out and wrote to ask the Son of Heaven to summon Zhuge Liang back to Beijing to recuperate. Liu Chan, the son of heaven, did not dare to make any statement in the face of the snowflakes. I had to ask people to copy these recitals to the General's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Jiang Wan and the others were completely panicked. Let Zhuge Liang return to Chengdu, which is to let him recuperate, this means to deprive him of his rights, at least to deprive him of military rights. Once Zhuge Liang leaves Guanzhong and wants to go back, it will be extremely difficult. His hard work over the years, if nothing else, will all be cheaper than Li Yan.

Without waiting for Jiang Wan and the others to come up with a way to deal with it, Li Yan launched a second wave of attacks. The end of the year was originally the busiest time for the Prime Minister's Office, and the upper plans of the states and counties had to be concentrated in the Prime Minister's Office for the final review. There is no Yang Yi, an accounting master, in charge. The mountains of account books had already made Jiang Wan and them dizzy, but Li Yan felt that it was not enough, and put forward a request for merit.

He asked for the cooperation of the General's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion to reward the Battle of Bingzhou at the beginning of the year and the Battle of Jingzhou in the second half of the year. And it is required to do so as soon as possible. So that the Son of Heaven will reward the meritorious men on the New Year's feast.

This request completely forced Jiang Wan and others into a corner.

Actually, there is no need to discuss it at all. The reward and punishment are very clear, that is, to reward the military exploits of Li Yan's father and son, and to punish Zhuge Liang, Jiang Wei and the responsibility for the defeat of the state.

Jiang Wan knew what the consequences of the discussion would be. But he can't shirk, after the war, it is inevitable to reward meritorious deeds, there are no rules, how can he govern the country? They urgently asked Guanzhong for instructions, but the news from Guanzhong made them even more devastated.

Zhuge Liang is really sick and can't be a director at all, and now it is Yang Yi and Jiang Wei who are in charge of daily affairs. Yang Yi wanted Jiang Wei to only be in charge of the military, and he was responsible for other affairs, in fact, he wanted to temporarily replace Zhuge Liang, but Jiang Wei insisted on intervening in daily affairs and not letting Yang Yi monopolize power, which made Yang Yi very annoyed and wrote to Jiang Wan and others to complain about Jiang Wei's greed for power.

External worries and internal troubles, the Prime Minister's Mansion is stormy, like a flat boat in the wild waves, no one knows when it will capsize.

The wind and rain are not only in the court of Chengdu, but also inevitably spread outside the city.

Zhuge Liang is not at home, Zhuge Manor has no contacts, except for Zhuge Jun, Jiang Wan and a few other people who come occasionally, there are almost no visitors, the door is closed all day, there is no anger at all, and the Wei family manor next door is simply one day and one place.

On this day, when Zhuge Jun came to see his sister-in-law as usual, he happened to see Fei Yi sitting in a carriage, driving from a distance. Zhuge Jun was overjoyed, stopped his steps to enter the door, arched his hand, showed a smile, and greeted him.

Fei Yi was very embarrassed, he asked the coachman to stop the carriage, got out of the carriage, and saluted Zhuge Jun.

Seeing Fei Yi standing there without moving, without any intention of entering the door, Zhuge Jun realized something, and the smile on his face was a little stiff.

"Where did Wen Wei come from?"

"Just came back from Jingzhou." Fei Yi had a fever on his face and said embarrassedly.

Zhuge Jun nodded and said with a forced smile: "It's hard all the way, so don't delay, it's important to get down to business first." Wen Wei, please take care of yourself. ”

Fei Yi seemed to have been slapped in the face, and his former calmness was gone, so he hurriedly got into the car and passed in front of Zhuge Manor.

Zhuge Jun looked at Fei Yi's back, was stunned for a long time, and turned around and entered the door. Huang Yueying was already waiting in the hall, and when she saw that Zhuge Jun's face was wrong, she asked. When she heard that Fei Yi passed by the door, but she didn't come on the orders of Zhuge Liang, her expression suddenly became very depressed.

What kind of person Fei Yi is, of course she knows, such people have left Zhuge Liang and switched to Wei Ba, for Zhuge Liang, it can already explain a lot of problems. She was silent for a long time before she regained her composure, and said lightly: "Everyone has their own ambitions, and the Jiangxia Fei clan can't break the inheritance, let him go." ”

Zhuge Jun felt a burst of sadness in his heart, and choked up: "Sister-in-law, my brother is bedridden, what can I do?" ”

Huang Yueying glanced at him, and her eyes turned red. "The imperial court has its own laws, and I can't leave Chengdu without an edict. Judging from the current situation, my departure from Chengdu will only bring more criticism to your brother, and I can only send books thousands of miles to support my lovesickness. If it's convenient for you, you might as well go to Chang'an and bring Zhan'er with you. After years of not returning, and falling ill again, I really don't know if he will survive this. When a person is sick, it is always a comfort to have a loved one by his side. ”

"Whoa." Zhuge Jun's voice did not fall, and tears came out of his eyes
