Chapter 174: Ruling to Arrest Zhou Qun

This man from Yuanyu Yuezhi was Zhuge Liang, who was the general of the military division at the time and was acting for the affairs of the Great Sima Mansion.

In that year, after Liu Bei initially pacified the four counties of Jingnan, Zhuge Liang took the position of the first military division Zhonglang General.

The original meaning of military division is to participate in the military.

So after Liu Bei visited the thatched cottage three times, Zhuge Liang was actually a military adviser in Liu Bei's mind.

After all, at that time, Liu Bei's territory was only Xinye, and there was no complicated government affairs to deal with at all, and with Liu Bei's own talent, it was enough to deal with Xinye's government affairs.

In August of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Liu Biao died of illness, and his second son Liu Cong inherited his position as the pastor of Jingzhou.

That year, Cao Cao had just unified the north, and in order to dominate the world, after learning the news of Liu Biao's death, he personally led an army of 200,000 to Jingchu in the south.

Liu Cong heard the news of Cao Cao's southward movement and sent an envoy to surrender to Cao Cao.

At that time, Zhuge Liang persuaded Liu Bei to attack Liu Cong by surprise, but he could take the opportunity to occupy Jingzhou, but Zhuge Liang's suggestion was not implemented because Liu Bei could not bear it.

In the same year, in order to resist Cao Cao's army, Zhuge Liang recommended himself to go to Chaisang to lobby Sun Quan and Liu Bei to form an alliance to resist Cao Cao.

In the process of lobbying, Zhuge Liang skillfully grasped Sun Quan's psychology and successfully persuaded Sun Quan to form an alliance with Liu Bei from three aspects: politics, military affairs, and people's hearts, and sent troops to resist Cao Cao together.

After Cao Cao's defeat in the Battle of Chibi and his return to the north, it was Zhuge Liang who took the lead in suggesting that Liu Bei replace part of the southern county with part of Jiangxia County and Zhou Yu, so as to facilitate Liu Bei's conquest of the four counties of Jingnan.

Liu Bei was able to take the four counties of Jingnan, and Zhuge Liang made great contributions.

Liu Bei was grateful for Zhuge Liang's merits, so he first gave Zhuge Liang the position of military advisor Zhonglang, and at the same time asked him to supervise the three counties of Lingling, Guiyang, and Changsha to be responsible for adjusting taxes and enriching military resources.

From that year onwards, Zhuge Liang gradually became the de facto "prime minister" in Liu Bei's forces.

After Liu Bei captured Yizhou, Zhuge Liang was appointed by Liu Bei as a general of the military division and acted as the general of General Zuo's office.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the local princes could not directly establish a new central court to command the counties in their power because of the nominal problem.

Therefore, under the actual need, the princes of various places adopted a methodical approach.

That is, after they have the qualifications to open the government, they will construct a shogunate frame, which will replace the role of the central court in their own power and dominate the local counties.

And Zhuge Liang, who acted as Liu Bei's shogunate, also officially became the "prime minister" in Liu Bei's forces in name."

In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, Liu Bei proclaimed himself the queen of Hanzhong, and at the same time called himself the Great Sima, and his original Zuo General's shogunate also officially became the Great Sima Shogunate, and in the same year, Zhuge Liang took advantage of the situation to act as the Great Sima Shogunate.

It can be said that since many years ago, Zhuge Liang has been the undoubted second-in-command of Liu Bei's forces.

After Zhuge Liang governed Shudi, in order to maintain the people's livelihood, he advocated strict punishment and strict laws, and there were many resentful clans.

At that time, Fa Zheng was facing Zhuge Liang to invoke the story of the abolition of the harsh laws of the Qin Dynasty after the Han Gaozu entered the Guanzhong, and the story of the three chapters of the law, hoping that Zhuge Liang could be tolerant and governed.

However, Fa Zheng's suggestion was vetoed by Zhuge Liang, which shows that in Liu Bei's forces, the decision-making power of policies, except for Liu Bei, has always been in Zhuge Liang's hands.

….

Even after the establishment of the Hanzhong Kingdom, Liu Bei set up Shangshutai and took Fazheng as the Shangshu order, this has not changed.

Because today is the day when Liu Bei, the king of Hanzhong, returns from the expedition, Zhuge Liang specially asked the ministers to wear official uniforms to greet him today.

After the Han Shizu created the Han Dynasty again, he changed the five virtues of the Han Dynasty to Huode, so for nearly two hundred years, the official uniforms of the senior officials of the Han Dynasty were all red.

Zhuge Liang, who is eight feet long, wears a high mountain crown, a cyan brocade robe inside, and a crimson court robe outside.

Around his waist hung a purple ribbon, one end of which was tied to the girdle around his waist, and the other end covered a sac with a gold seal.

The purple ribbon hung down and swayed slightly in the wind, invisibly showing Zhuge Liang's status.

Zhuge Liang, who originally had an outstanding appearance, was even more under this dress

It looks extraordinary.

Just when Zhuge Liang was standing on the side of the road with his eyes closed, waiting for Liu Bei to appear, Xu Ci behind him stepped forward and came to his side and said, "Kong Ming, Zhou Qun is today and in the future."

Xu Ci, the word benevolence, Nanyang people.

Xu Ci studied under Liu Xi when he was young, and was proficient in Zheng Xuanjing, and studied "Zhou Yi", "Shangshu", "Analects" and so on for many years.

During the Jian'an period, Xu Ci and Xu Jing came to Shu together.

After Liu Bei pacified Shudi, Yizhou went through mourning and destruction, and the matter of learning was abandoned for a long time.

So Liu Bei gathered the canonical books, eliminated various theories, and appointed Xu Ci and Hu Qian as bachelors, and took charge of the ancient books together with Meng Guang and Lai Min.

Liu Bei's original meaning was to hope that these four celebrities could work together to restore the literature of Shuzhong.

However, Xu Ci's narrow-minded personality and the fact that it was the time when all industries were created at that time caused a lot of doubts in academic discussions.

Therefore, among those four people, Xu Ci and Hu Qian often compete with each other to win and attack, quarrel and slander, and have a strong voice.

The two never exchanged books, and sometimes they fought to deter each other.

As Liu Bei commented: Although Xu Ci is well-informed, his moral integrity is not good, and he is only a bachelor for a while.

Xu Ci's personality Liu Bei knows, and Zhuge Liang also knows.

After hearing Xu Ci's words, Zhuge Liang's eyes gradually opened, and then Zhuge Liang looked at Xu Ci.

Although Zhuge Liang's gaze was gentle, his eyes were as deep as water, and under such a gaze, Xu Ci felt a little overwhelmed for a while.

Xu Ci felt as if all the secrets in his heart had been seen through.

After Zhuge Liang looked at Xu Ci, he said:

"Zhongzhi is unwell today, so he didn't come."

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, an anxious look appeared on Xu Ci's face.

He thought Zhuge Liang was deceived.

Xu Ci then said to Zhuge Liang: "A few days ago, Zhou Qun often appeared between major banquets, talking loudly, and he didn't show any pathology."

"The date of the return of the king, the general had announced a hundred officials a few days ago."

"Zhou Qun is not sick in the morning, he is not sick in the evening, but he is sick today, doesn't the general feel puzzled?"

"I thought he must be resentful of the king because of what happened last time, so he deliberately didn't come to greet him today."

After listening to Xu Ci's words, Zhuge Liang's face did not show anger, but was still as calm as water.

….

Zhuge Liang said to Xu Ci, "Xu Gong thinks it's too much to worry about."

In the face of Zhuge Liang's disapproval, the anxious look on Xu Ci's face became stronger.

He will take the initiative to impeach Zhou Qun in front of Zhuge Liang today for disrespecting Liu Bei for two reasons.

One reason is that Zhou Qun has been against him a lot in the past.

The second reason is that Zhou Qun relied on his reputation in Yizhou in the past to criticize Zhuge Liang's policies.

For Zhuge Liang, Xu Ci is truly respectful.

Therefore, after he found out that Zhou Qun was pretending to be sick in the future, he wanted to remind Zhuge Liang of this.

Resentment and disrespect for the king can be a great or small crime.

As long as Zhuge Liang uses it well, it is enough to make Zhou Qun suffer.

It is even possible to uproot this fanatic who has been slandering the New Deal in the past.

Xu Ci felt that although his impeachment of Zhou Qun today was selfish, it was also beneficial to Zhuge Liang.

After all, Zhou Qun has a good reputation in Yizhou, and his slander in the past has caused a lot of obstacles to Zhuge Liang's governance.

He thought that Zhuge Liang would be happy when he heard his impeachment, but he didn't expect Zhuge Liang to look like he didn't care.

But there was no turning back when he opened the bow, maybe Zhuge Liang didn't pay attention to his deep meaning.

Thinking of this, Xu Ci saw that there was no one around at the moment, so he lowered his voice and said to Zhuge Liang, "Zhou Qun is crazy!"

"In the past, he was interested in "Shu Ke".

The code of law, written by the general himself, has many grievances and slanders."

"Now that he dares to disrespect the king, the general should not be guilty of this."

"One can set the record straight and establish prestige."

"The second is to avoid bad rumors in the coming days, which will reach the ears of the king."

After Xu Ci finished speaking, he looked at Zhuge Liang with an expectant face, hoping that his face would show a look of interest.

He's already made it so clear!

But unfortunately, Xu Ci was disappointed.

Zhuge Liang did not have a look of intention on his face, but he frowned deeply after hearing Xu Ci's words.

A sigh appeared on Zhuge Liang's face, and he said to Xu Ciyan:

"Duke Xu, although Zhong Zhi said that he was sick today and would welcome the king in the future, there is no evidence to prove that he did this because of resentment."

"If there is no evidence, there can be no crime, and law enforcement should be impartial, so how can we judge crime by speculation?

Moreover, Xu Gong's words about Zhou Qun's slander of national law are even more fallacious. When I formulated the Shu Branch, what I did was to benefit the people."

"I am not a saint, and the "Shu Family" is not a holy scripture, and it is common to have omissions and deficiencies.

Zhong Zhi may be dissatisfied with the Shu Ke out of selfishness, but I should not condemn it for selfishness."

"Whoever he says, if it makes sense, I must follow it. If it's a wild word, I'll just laugh it off.

Whether the Shu family is a law that harms the people and suffers the people, or a law that loves the people and supports the people, everything has its own public opinion."

"Besides, the Lord ordered me to stay in Chengdu to protect the territory and the people, which is the Lord's trust in me. The public weapon of power cannot be used indiscriminately by the ministers, let alone used to fight against dissidents, and the party is the same as the other!

I don't want to hear what I say today."

In the end, Zhuge Liang's tone was already a little harsh.

And under Zhuge Liang's stern tone, Xu Ci couldn't help but have a panicked look on his face.

….

He didn't expect that Zhuge Liang would be angry because of this.

Isn't there a rumor in Chengdu from time to time that Jingzhou and Yizhou scholars have always been incompatible?

How could Zhuge Liang still maintain Zhou Qun?

But what Xu Ci didn't know was that Zhuge Liang was not defending Zhou Qun, but the political concept of governing fairly and wholeheartedly for the country in his heart.

In the face of Zhuge Liang's reprimand, Xu Ci could only put away his careful thoughts in the end, and retreated with a panicked look on his face.

Xu Ci's panicked scene was seen by many ministers behind Zhuge Liang.

But they didn't know what Xu Ci said to Zhuge Liang, so they could only secretly guess in their hearts.

It's just all kinds of speculation, and after they saw the tall figure in front of them, they all pressed it down.

Just ten miles away from Chengdu, the ministers of Chengdu who seem to be wearing majestic robes and robes are more or less full of various calculations in their hearts.

There were only more than 100 courtiers, and they were clearly divided into four factions.

If there is no Zhuge Liang who is dedicated to the public, Chengdu City does not know what will happen after Liu Bei leaves.

Not to mention that Liu Bei, who was on an expedition, continuously provided food and grass troops.

Just after Xu Ci retreated, a huge team of tens of thousands of people had already appeared in the sight of the ministers in Chengdu.

Seeing this scene, Zhuge Liang, who was standing at the head of the ministers, had a smile on his face.

The king has arrived.

After the marching procession like a long dragon appeared in the eyes of the ministers, the faces of the ministers were like Zhuge Liang, and they all showed joy.

Not long after, the huge team of kings had already come to Zhuge Liang.

In the middle of the tens of thousands of people is Liu Bei's king.

Today, Zhuge Liang personally led hundreds of officials to greet him in the suburbs ten miles outside Chengdu, and Liu Bei knew about it.

Therefore, when the striker in the team reported that Baiguan was not far away, Liu Bei ordered someone to remove the car door in front of him.

Soon after, when Liu Bei's figure clearly appeared in front of Zhuge Liang and the hundred officials, Zhuge Liang immediately led the hundred officials

They all bowed to Liu Bei.

"Congratulations on the king's triumphant return."

More than 100 congratulatory voices resounded in the fields outside Chengdu.

Liu Bei saw Zhuge Liang standing in front of the hundred officials at a glance, and after the king drove to a stop in front of the ministers, Liu Bei got off the king and came to Zhuge Liang and helped him up.

After Liu Bei helped Zhuge Liang up, he held Zhuge Liang's hand and said, "In the past few months, it has been hard work."

In the face of Liu Bei's consolation, Zhuge Liang only bowed slightly and replied: "What the minister does is what he does, not to mention hard work."

Although Zhuge Liang said this, Liu Bei would not be unaware of Zhuge Liang's hard work.

When he led 30,000 troops to support Jingzhou, Yizhou had not yet recovered from the great injury of the Battle of Hanzhong.

Later, in this case, Zhuge Liang was able to continue to collect grain and grass for him in the past few months, and the hardships were not understandable to ordinary people.

At this time, Mi Yang also came to Zhuge Liang.

In the team before, Mi Yang had been riding a horse and following Liu Bei's king.

Therefore, when Liu Bei saw Zhuge Liang, Mi Yang also saw him.

Unlike others, Mi Yang and Zhuge Liang have the name of master and apprentice, so he took the initiative to come to Zhuge Liang to worship his disciples:

….

"Master Ge is well."

Zhuge Liang's ancestors were originally Ge's, a native of Langya County, and later migrated to Yangdu.

Because there was a person with the surname Ge in Yangdu, people called Zhuge at the time, because he thought it was a name.

Therefore, if you want to express the honorific title to Zhuge Liang, it is okay to call Ge Gong or Zhuge Gong.

Facing Mi Yang's salute, a smile appeared on Zhuge Liang's face.

For this disciple, he also misses it.

Zhuge Liang nodded and said to Mi Yang, "It's good to come back."

After finishing speaking, Zhuge Liang turned his head to look at Liu Bei, and asked Liu Bei to say, "The city has been cleared of the palace, and the king is invited to enter the city."

Faced with Zhuge Liang's request, Liu Bei did not agree immediately.

With an inquiring gaze, he looked around among the ministers present.

In the end, Liu Bei turned his head to look at Mi Yang and said to him, "You lead a team of elite horsemen into the city, go to Zhou Qun's mansion, and take them out of the city to see Gu."

Although Mi Yang didn't know why Liu Bei suddenly had this order, he immediately took the order and left.

And when Liu Bei said this, Zhuge Liang's face changed slightly.

He remembered Changyu!

Zhuge Liang was about to admonish him, but Liu Bei waved his hand to stop him.

Liu Bei was behind him, and he looked at the ministers who bowed down in front of him, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

He said to Zhuge Liang, "Alone has its own measure."

Mi Han.
