When Sun Quan pinched his nose and swallowed his anger, Zhuge Liang also fell into passivity.

Fei Yi arrived from Changsha and informed him that Wei Ba had conclusive evidence that he had leaked the warship Jishu to Sun Quan, a situation that Zhuge Liang had never expected. First, he didn't expect Sun Quan to send the original drawings to Yuzhang Shipyard, and secondly, he didn't expect these drawings to fall into Wei Ba's hands, and more importantly, he didn't really know what Wei Ba wanted to get.

The initiative was completely in the hands of Wei Ba, and the situation was very unfavorable for him.

Zhuge Liang didn't reply to Fei Yi immediately, and he didn't even say anything. Although Fei Yi didn't say anything, he could feel some subtle changes in Fei Yi's attitude. Fei Yi is no longer the Fei Yi who thinks about him, Fei Yi's center has unconsciously moved to Wei Ba's side, although Fei Yi is still thinking about him, but his position has changed.

This matter is very important, Zhuge Liang was afraid of causing some unnecessary riots, so he didn't say it to anyone, and took some cronies and Fei Yi to Louguan at the northern foot of Zhongnan Mountain, where the environment is quiet and quiet, and no one disturbs him, so that he can recuperate while considering Wei Ba's thoughts.

At night, autumn is as cool as water, Zhuge is wearing a half-worn fur coat and slowly pacing on a high platform. This high platform is said to be the place where Lao Tzu wrote 5,000 words, also called Lao Tzu to write the scripture platform, after Yin Xi got the scriptures, he was here to gaze at the stars, and this stargazing building next to him was the place where he watched the stars. In later generations, it became the birthplace of Louguan Dao, an important landscape in the history of Taoist development, but Zhuge Liang, who has always been mistaken for Taoism, actually has nothing to do with Taoism. Nor are these of them interested.

In terms of academics, Zhuge Liang is actually a miscellaneous family, mainly based on Legalism, supplemented by Confucianism. There are still some Taoist indifferentness in his personal heart, otherwise there would not be the famous saying "tranquility to far, indifference to Mingzhi" has been handed down. However, he himself has worked hard all his life, and there are very few times when he really practices this sentence. Otherwise, he would not have done his best. Dead and gone.

This is not the result that Taoist people will have at all, which immortal is tired to death.

The night in early winter was already very cold, and it was even colder in the mountains, and Zhuge Liang wrapped the old clothes on his body tightly. Tilt your head. Look at the stars in the sky. Identifying the location of the stars and calculating the fortune of the Great Han. As a general, you should know astronomy and geography. Astrological doctors, Zhuge Liang is no stranger to these, but now, he feels that he can't see anything.

For example, what Wei Ba wanted to do, there was no sign at all in the astrology.

There was a sound of soft footsteps next to him, and Fei Yi appeared on the stage, holding a piece of clothing in both hands. looked at Zhuge Liang quietly. Zhuge Liang turned his head and glanced at him, but did not speak, but sighed softly.

"Prime Minister, it's cold in high places." Fei Yi showed a hint of a smile, he walked up to Zhuge Liang and shook off the clothes. "Prime Minister, your big coat has fallen off, so let's put on this fox fur."

Zhuge Liang glanced at the new fur and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This is a pure white fur, which looks like a piece of snow, and it is so white that it makes people's hearts move.

He didn't take it, but grabbed the old fur on his body. "Wen Wei has a lot of income now, and he is such a valuable fox fur when he makes a move?"

Fei Yi shook his head: "It's not mine, it's Wei Ziyu who gave it to the prime minister." He looked at it and said, "It's a patchwork, not a whole skin, and there is no such big fox skin in the world." ”

Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows, groaned for a moment, and laughed lightly. "Well, I'm going to try."

Fei Yi breathed a sigh of relief, took the old fur from Zhuge Liang's hand, carefully put it aside, and helped Zhuge Liang put on the new fur.

People rely on clothes, and Buddha relies on gold, this sentence is not bad at all. Zhuge Liang was originally good-looking, with a long body, but now his body is weak, his face is a little pale, wearing this snow-white fox fur, the whole person is like a flawless piece of jade. If the face is a little better, it is simply a jade tree in the wind, an old tree and a branch.

Fei Yi took two steps back, looked Zhuge Liang up and down, and nodded again and again. "Sure enough, the length is just right."

Zhuge Liang looked down, lifted the hem of his clothes that was a little long, and said with a wry smile: "It's good, but the length is not just right, it seems to be longer, and it's easy to sweep the floor." ”

"That's because the prime minister is weak and his back is a little hunched." Fei Yi smiled: "If you take care of your body and your back is straight, wouldn't it be just right?" ”

Zhuge Liang glanced at Fei Yi: "I'm getting older, I'm only getting weaker and weaker, how can I rejuvenate myself?" ”

Fei Yi shook his head: "Prime Minister, if you talk about age, you are not old. Half a hundred years of life is a young age. ”

"Wen Wei, you are becoming more and more able to speak now."

"Prime Minister praise, this is not what I said."

Zhuge Liang was stunned, and his eyes darkened. Fei Yi made it clear that he was going to be a lobbyist for Wei Ba. The fox fur that has been gathered together will take care of the body, this is Wei Ba's request?

Although Zhuge Liang is not a Taoist, he knows where the allusion to the armpit into a fur comes from. "Shenzi? Zhizhong" has "the material of the old corridor temple, and the cover is not a branch of a tree; Pure white fur, cover not a fox skin", Wei Ba gave him this fox fur, in fact, he hoped that he could use people in an eclectic way, not to make himself so hard, and then it was possible to nourish the body, which is just suitable for the length of this fox fur, that is, the scale suitable for Wei Ba's requirements.

In other words, Wei Ba asked him to let go and recognize his rights and status now. In this way, the contradictions and conflicts between them can be alleviated, and even the conflict can be turned into a friendship.

I have to say that at that moment, Zhuge Liang was a little moved. He is very aware of the current situation, if he joins forces with Wei Ba, Li Yan will become a source of water and a tree without roots, and the situation of tripartite confrontation in the court can be alleviated. It is entirely possible for Shu Han, who eliminated internal contradictions, to level the world and achieve the great cause of unification in just a few years.

It's a very big temptation. If everything goes well, Zhuge Liang can even complete his life journey with the satisfaction of fulfilling his dreams. For him, it was a happy ending.

But then what? As soon as he thought of this, Zhuge Liang's heart that had just flown up continued to sink again. According to this assumption, Wei Ba would be his successor, and he would be no more than thirty years old at that time, and he would be able to hold power for at least twenty years, and if he could maintain his health, he might even hold power for another thirty or forty years. For such a long time, can he always restrain his ambition and not take that step? And even if he wanted to, would the men under him do? Once he is moved, I am afraid that no one will be able to stop him. With a raise of his hand, he was able to overthrow the big man.

Once again, the Great Han will face destruction.

Zhuge Liang looked at the swarthy mountains in the distance, and his heart seemed to be stuffed into the entire Qinling Mountains, leaving no gaps.

Fei Yi looked at him quietly and said nothing. What should be said, he has already said, what should be done, he has already done, and the rest, as Wei Ba said, is left to fate.

"Yan Zi once said that clothes are as good as new, and people are as good as before." Zhuge Liang stroked the new Qiu on his body, and his tone was low and full of sadness. "But though the garment is new, people do not know whether it is the same or not. And like the new and hate the old, the gentleman does not do it. Although the new clothes are good, they are not as close as the old clothes. ”

Zhuge Liang said, took off the new fur, folded it carefully, handed it to Fei Yi, and took the old fur from his hand and draped it. Fei Yi looked at the new Qiu in his hand, felt the residual body temperature on it, and sighed faintly: "Prime Minister, don't be in such a hurry to make conclusions." ”

"Wei Ba has meritorious service this time, I'm afraid he will be added to the rank of knight again." Zhuge Liang said bluntly: "What does he want?" ”

Fei Yi shook his head: "I don't know. “

"You don't know?" Zhuge Liang turned his head and looked at Fei Yi forcefully, with a little more ridicule in his eyes.

"I really don't know." Fei Yi said earnestly: "I can only say that Wei Ba doesn't want to go that far. Prime Minister, you should be able to feel his sincerity. ”

"But all I see is ambition." Zhuge Liang smiled miserably: "I'm old, my body is declining more and more, just like this waning moon, I can't see a trace of light, and I can't be the opponent of the rising sun." However, since there is still a breath of air, you can't just sit back and watch Lu Shen. Wen Wei, go back and tell Wei Ba that if he is willing to be a pure minister, it will be the luck of the Han Dynasty and the blessing of the common people. If he has other ambitions and wants to bargain with me, he should give up the idea as soon as possible. People are born helpless, and many things cannot be chosen, but there are some things that must be chosen. ”

Fei Yi wanted to speak and stopped. There was a rush of footsteps from the audience, Fei Yi turned his head to see that Jiang Wei was holding a letter and hurriedly walked over. When he walked past him, Jiang Wei glanced at him, but didn't say anything, walked straight to Zhuge Liang, and whispered a few words in Zhuge Liang's ear.

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly and waved his hand gently. Jiang Wei bowed down to receive the order and walked off the stage quickly, not even looking at Fei Yi this time.

There was silence on the stage, except for a few autumn insects.

Fei Yi could still hear his own heartbeat.

Zhuge Liang was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "Wen Wei, you go back and tell Wei Ba that I don't like to make compromises, and I don't want to be forced to make a choice." This is the only place that can persecute me. He raised his hand and pointed to his heart, his tone was soft, but his attitude was resolute.

"There is nothing outside of this square inch of land. Fame and fortune are like floating clouds to me. ”

Fei Yi sighed, bowed deeply, bowed his waist at a right angle, and stood up straight again after a while. He turned around, held the fox fur, and slowly stepped off the stage, step by step, solemnly as if he was holding a sacrifice for a great sacrifice. He walked to the stage, turned around, raised his head, looked at Zhuge Liang, who was standing with his hands in his hands, looking up to the sky and watching the stars, and said word by word: "Prime Minister take care." ”

Zhuge Liang was motionless, like a god.

Fei Yi turned to leave.

Jiang Wei turned around the corner, looked at the direction Fei Yi left, and after a while, he stepped onto the stage, came behind Zhuge Liang, and stood there, bowing his back slightly, motionless.

"Do you have faith, Beryo?"

Jiang Wei replied softly: "Profit the country, life and death, and dare not avoid it because of misfortune." ”…… (To be continued......)
