In addition to Deng Ai and Wang Ling, there were also Xiahou Ba and Xiahou Xuan of the Xiahou family, who each led their own troops and horses to fight desperately with the Han army.

These people are very capable, at least everyone has the ability to do it!

In addition to these people, Cao Ang has once again shown favor to the wealthy families represented by Chen Qun and Sima Yi and others over the years, thus gaining a large number of young talents.

Under the advice of Sima Yi and the permission of Cao Ang and others, each family took the initiative to recommend their own children to enter the court, so as to re-establish the system of nine products.

For a time, Cao Wei actually appeared a kind of talent emergence.

On the battlefield of Kunshan alone, there was a vote of the Guo family children who were recommended by the general Wang Ling first, and the Guo family was born in Taiyuan, which made Guo Huai's face extremely embarrassing!

For example, Guo Zhen, the younger brother of Guo 0huai, and the nephew Guo Zhan, Guo Yi, Guo Yu...

After that, Wang Ling also recommended on his behalf, and Wang Ji, his heirs Wang Guang, Wang Jinhu, nephew Ling Huyu and others were all stationed in Luoyang to assist in defense.

Just these two places are not enough, on both sides of them there are also Wang Chang, Wang Hun and others recommended by the state of Zhongzheng.

Of course, in addition to the Taiyuan lineage of this state, there are also the lords of the Xianbei tribes, Ke Bineng and others don't want to get off the broken ship of the Cao family's Luoyang Imperial Court now.

But now I can't help but let the clansmen of these tribes be in the hands of the Cao family, and even they can see that Zhuge Liang and Liu Xie... They don't seem to be very welcome.

Especially Liu Bao, as a Hu person with the most special relationship with the Han Dynasty, Liu Bao, the current leader of the Southern Huns, has not thought about some things.

But....

"Let Liu Bao come to Chang'an in person, I will only talk to him about the friendship between my Han and the Huns!"

With just such a sentence, Liu Bao knew that he would not be able to go to Chang'an in his life, and he was afraid that he would never be able to come out again.

At least my head can't get out.

After all, the Southern Xiongnu broke away from the Xiongnu and took the initiative to throw themselves into the arms of the Han Dynasty, but it was not as simple as simply surrendering, these guys did rebellion when Emperor Xiao'an was outside.

For example, around the ninth year of Yonghe, when the Han Dynasty had just begun a series of natural disasters, a large-scale natural disaster broke out again that year.

It directly affected the entire northwest and northern Xinjiang, and its severity even caused the entire Liangzhou to start cannibalism, and dyed the entire river flowing into Hedong from the northwest red...

As for the annexation of the state, this is even more so, and that year, the Southern Xiongnu Wanshi corpse of the Southern Xiongnu actually thought that the Han people died due to natural disasters, so he took the opportunity to send troops to attack the Han!

For this reason, he even united Wuhuan to lead the king Wuhe, the Xianbei leader Qiu Lun and others to invade the land of Wuyuan County.

That battle was fought for a long time, and in the end, it was the Southern Huns who took off their hats and bare feet to ask for guilt and merged into the big Han, which was the perfect solution to this matter.

Hard! This is the most appropriate evaluation of Dahan today....

When Qin Lang led the Bingzhou Yimai to fight with that Deng Ai, Cao Zhen of Jizhou on the other side also burst out of his true confidence.

Of course, he has been sitting in Jizhou all these years, and he will not honestly garrison and defend.

With Cao Ang's permission, how Jizhou recommended it, it was naturally recommended by Jizhou.

And it's going to be doubled ....

"Since then Elfang sold his armor to all the families in the world privately, it is better to follow the example of Jiangdong Sun Zhongmou back then, and let their hidden strength become Cao Wei's strength!

Reorder the nine products! ”

Cao Ang faced such a situation of internal and external troubles, and only used one trick to "reorder the nine products" and began to break the game.

He knew that he couldn't suppress the internal wealthy clan while resisting Liu Bei's attack, and even regain the lost territory.

So he chose to do the opposite, since he couldn't do both, then merge.

Knowing the hidden dangers of the righteous law of the Nine Pins, he re-overthrew the existing Jiupin and linked the family power to the court power.

The officials below the fourth rank of the court directly corresponded to the nineteenth rank and above the eighteenth rank...

Therefore, if each family wants to occupy a more sufficient position above the court, they must show more strength, and this strength is not only related to their status in Cao Wei.

It is even related to the treatment that their family will face after the Han Dynasty sweeps the world in the future....

Therefore, in just a few years, Cao Wei, who was about to be unavailable, began to have various explosions, and Hebei existed as one of the Cao family's heritage.

Naturally, it is not to be left behind.

In addition to the father and son of Lu Zhao and Lu Xun who were born in Dongping, Yanzhou, there are also Liu Jing, the son of Liu Fu, Sun Li, the wealthy family of Le'an, Fu Rong of the Yuyang clan, Zhang Te, Zhuojun Zhang Te, Taishan Goat and many other heroes joined.

And what they brought to Cao Wei was not only the generals and horses and those talents who could enter the counties and counties at any time to serve as officials.

And more so is the word stability!

Cao Ang's retreat at this step is not good or bad for the Cao family and the world, but it is also a rare stability for Cao Wei's situation today.

Coupled with the talents of the Central Plains under Sima Yi's command, the crumbling Cao Wei suddenly changed his appearance the moment Zhuge Liang's army began to attack.

Not only Qin Lang blocked Deng Ai, but even Cao Xiu, who had been dragged by Wang Ping, Pang Tong and others in the land of Qingxu, suddenly turned yellow in his own playing style.

From the initial continuous retreat, it turned into a fierce counterattack.

"Wang Xiang of Xuzhou, Lu Yu of Zhuojun, Zhong Yu of Yingchuan, Cui Lin of Qinghe, Gao Rou of Chen Liu, Wang Su of the East China Sea...."

When Pang Tong, who was in Xuzhou to plague Cao Xiu, heard Cao Ang's latest court list, the cold sweat on his face had begun to slowly slide down.

The names of these people are also thunderous here in their big man.

Whether it is fame, ability, or family background, it can be regarded as a number of existences in this world.

And when these people work together, or do their best to do what they are best at, the pressure is enough to make people tremble.

"Let's go back to Mount Tai first, Kong Ming really blew up all the essence of Cao Wei this time...."

Looking at Cao Wei, who suddenly became stable under the fierce attack of the big man, the hearts of these people who were about to move became quiet again.

Of course.... Except for Zhuge Kongming, who was playing chess with his closed disciple Yinfan.

"Sir..."When Yin Fan watched Zhuge Liang twist the chess pieces in his hand and did not fall, he couldn't help but call out to him gently, "Why don't you take a break today, Mr. seems to be restless.....

"Oh?" At this time, Zhuge Liang also raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at his newly accepted disciple, and then chuckled, "Why do you say that?" ”

"It's... Mr. is indecisive, this is not like what Mr. does, Mr. chess is often planned and then moved, a son falls and a white son falls, no matter where the disciple plays, it is expected by Mr.

But this is the ninth time that Mr. Today has been undecided, so... What is it that makes you feel uneasy today, sir? ”

Looking at the disciple in front of him with a concerned face, Zhuge Liang didn't say anything, just smiled at him, and then dropped the chess piece in his hand on the chessboard.

"Alright, it's over!"

After hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Na Yinbo did not continue to say more, but continued to twist up a chess piece with a smile on his face and prepared to continue playing against Zhuge Liang.

But....

"Knot... It's over? ”

At this time, Yin Fan realized that the sentence he had just given Zhuge Liang was over, not that his hand was over, but that his chess game was over.

After watching it for a long time, after Yinbo found that he had no way to live, he finally bowed slightly to Zhuge Liang.

"Sir, boy... Not as good as that! ”

"Liang did think about something just now, but if he really said that he was restless... You kid seems to be more serious than the old man, right? ”

Zhuge Liang's voice was loud and refreshing, and the faint face suddenly appeared a touch of embarrassment, but it quickly dissipated without a trace.

"Sir, the kid was indeed a little bit just now..."Yin Fan laughed, and then bowed slightly, "The student was indeed restless just now, please forgive me!" ”

admits it, but doesn't explain the reason, but this attitude makes it difficult for people to continue to ask.

The hidden at this moment is the most vivid expression of the art of that language.

However, Zhuge Liang didn't ask too much about this disciple, but asked him to clean up this place and then go to study.

After the Yin Fan left, two people came to this room again.

All of them were dressed in strong costumes, with unpretentious swords stuck in their waists, and one of them wore a ghost-like mask on his face, his hair was a little silvery, and he was quite old.

But even if you are hunched over, you can see that the bee's waist is curled... Ahem... Extremely good shape!

The other person is tall, but temperament... There is no temperament at all!

Needless to say, the appearance of these two people is now in charge of the dark guard and is responsible for protecting Zhuge Liang's two top swordsmen and assassins in the world.

Ghost Feng Yang Aruo, Saiwai Han Long.

"Meet the Prime Minister!" When the two saw Zhuge Liang, they immediately bowed down and bowed, with a modest attitude.

"Well, don't bother." Zhuge Liang also returned to his position at this time, and only looked at the two of them after taking a seat at random, "What do you gain this time?" ”

"Please forgive me!" At this time, Yang Aruo bowed down again, and there was a lot of guilt in his words, "I have been following Na Yinbo for a few days, but there is no problem with him.

Seems... He's really here to join Your Majesty..."

"Hmm..."Zhuge Liang just nodded, then looked at Han Long, "How are you there?" ”

"Prime Minister, forgive me, the villain doesn't have any gain here..."Han Long's face was also extremely embarrassed when he said this, "There is no problem with the hidden family."

I've been waiting to investigate, and he's indeed defected..."

Looking at the attitudes of Han Long and Guifeng, Zhuge Liang knew that if it wasn't himself who arranged this matter, I am afraid that Yinbo and these two people might have some friendship now.

But even if it's yourself... It's just that during this period of time, under himself and his hypocrisy and grievances, many of these big men already have a good relationship with him.

Among them, there are some important ministers above the court, and there are even people who want to recommend him to the court and let him serve His Majesty....

It's just that in the face of such requests, there is only one answer...

"A certain traitor to the Han Dynasty is all because of the prime minister, the prime minister is a genius who is not born in this world, and today he defected to the prime minister, how can he give up his knowledge for the future!"

I don't know if I should say that he is arrogant and uninhibited, or whether he insists on it...

In short, relying on his unique ability and eloquence, Yinbo quickly gained a firm foothold in the Han Dynasty, and at a young age, he gained the trust of Zhuge Liang and became his closed disciple.

It is said that in the past half a year, Zhuge Liang has really taught him wholeheartedly.

But only Han Long and Yang Aruo knew that Zhuge Liang had been letting them monitor this disciple of his for the past half a year, and there were even his family members in Yanzhou inside and out.

But all of what they did, they could only answer Zhuge Liang one sentence.

"There is no problem with this person!"

"There is no problem.... That's the biggest problem in itself! Zhuge Liang looked at the two people in front of him, and in the end he could only sigh gloomily, "You want to retreat for the time being." ”

"No!"

After the two left, Zhuge Liang slowly took out the article submitted by Yinbo and continued to ponder it carefully.

That solemn attitude seemed to read every word that Yin Bo said.

"Prime Minister..."

Unconsciously, it was night again, Yang Yi personally held the lamp for Zhuge Liang, looked at Zhuge Liang with a solemn face, and asked with some worry.

"Is the prime minister a little too worried?"

Yang Yi was indeed a genius, he didn't know Zhuge Liang's suspicion of Yinbo, nor did he know what Han Long and Ghost Feng did.

But he could rely on the sporadic events to feel that the relationship between Zhuge Liang and Yinbo was not as simple as it seemed.

But even Yang Yi had to say a word after dating Na Yinbo for a while.

"This man is talented...."

"This person... Nothing was a problem..."

And this kind of answer made Zhuge Liang's heart even more uncomfortable, because His Majesty had told him with great certainty that this person called Yinbo was indeed that Cao Ang's person.

Although Zhuge Kongming didn't know why that majesty was so determined, he knew that it was not a person who would mess around.

But.... He did enter the man's calculations, and now he doesn't know what he came to his side for...

But Zhuge Liang won't really spend all his energy on this person after all, he has more important things to do now.

"What's wrong with Wei Yan?"

“.... There has been some action, but... I can't get in touch with him now. ”

"Hmm... Wen Chang is the best at surprise, and this time I hope he can bring some good news. Zhuge Liang sighed helplessly before continuing, "Wei Wei, how long will it take?" ”

"Wei Wei, meet the prime minister!"

A few days later, Wei Yan's news had not yet arrived, but Wei Yan had already arrived.

Facing Zhuge Kongming, Wei Wei was actually a little afraid.

Not only because Zhuge Kongming treats people strictly, governs strictly, but most importantly...

Wei Wei now remembers the incident when he abducted the prince!

He doesn't know if the prince has changed now, but this Zhuge Cheng's attitude towards him has changed very seriously!

"Cheng... Prime minister? Wei Wei saluted for a long time, but he didn't see Zhuge Liang's reply, and the change in his face was even more serious.

"Hmm..." At this time, Zhuge Kongming couldn't help but chuckle, looking at the embarrassed Wei Wei in front of him and shaking the feather fan.

The whirring sound brought out made Wei Wei's neck couldn't help but shrink slightly.

"The prime minister brought the villain here, but what do you want to order?"

"Look at this!" Zhuge Liang did not continue to embarrass Wei Wei, but handed over all the news of Yinbo that gave him a headache.

"Prime Minister, this is..."

"This person's name is Yinbo, and he is a person who turned to my Han Dynasty.

He is good at talking, good at criminal law, and has good talent and talent! ”

"Is that the new closed disciple of the Prime Minister?" At this time, Wei Yan also remembered who this person was, "It seems that it is indeed him, Yuan Zhi has complained a few words with Zai Xia before."

said that he was a student who was really ashamed of his teacher's teachings, and forced the prime minister to receive the teachings of his disciples one after another..."

Zhuge Liang looked at Wei Wei in front of him and didn't say anything, he sighed directly and asked him to hurry up and do something serious!

"Hmm... Innocent... The talent is not bad..."Wei Wei kept rummaging through the contents of the letter, and his mouth kept muttering to himself.

After more than an hour, Wei Wei raised his head again with a strange expression.

"Hmm...."

"If you have anything to say, I brought you here for this matter!"

"It seems that the prime minister has also discovered this person's problem?" Wei Wei chuckled directly at Zhuge Liang, and then put the letter in his hand on the ground, "I don't know what the prime minister thinks?" ”

"Liang guessed that he was from the Luoyang Cao clan, but... No evidence! ”

"Hmm... It is true that there is no evidence, and he is indeed Cao Wei's person. Wei Yan said simply this time, "This person's wrist is quite good."

If ordinary people want to lie, it is true and false, and if they are really high, they are nine points true and one point false, which is used to deceive and deceive in the most critical place.

But whether it is nine points true and one point false or half true and false, as long as there is a part of a lie, it will definitely be exposed.

But this is called Yinbo, and he doesn't have a single lie in the whole article!

He's just hiding something in the most crucial places! ”

"Oh?" Zhuge Liang looked at Wei Wei in front of him, and really felt that he still had a specialization in the art industry, "Let's talk about it carefully!" ”

"Yinbo is from Qingzhou, this is true, there is no problem from his accent or the customs of Qingzhou and the taste of that meal.

If there is, it must be seen with the experience and ability of Ghost Feng and Han Long.

There is no problem with him admiring my big man in his heart, he is so grateful for the prime minister, and he doesn't care about the future of his career for the prime minister, which is also true for him.

But doesn't the prime minister feel that something is missing? ”

"This..."Kong Ming groaned slightly, "You go on!" ”

"Prime Minister!" At this time, Wei Wei stood up directly and bowed to Zhuge Liang, "Although the villain is not considered to be well-versed in the world, the villain also knows that there seems to be no hidden clan in this Qingzhou!"

Secondly... In this news, it was claimed that there was no problem with his family in Qingzhou, everything was normal, and the neighbors also proved the existence and talent of this person.

But... What about recommendations?

Most of the neighbors recognized his talent, even if the recommendation system in the Cao Wei court has gone out of shape now, it doesn't mean that such talented people really have no way out!

With such a reputation, the local official was indifferent, he had no family background but had such a talent, and he was outstanding but could not impress the Cao Wei officials.

In this case, he was able to pass through Qingyan Erzhou, walk through Sili Luoyang, and then enter Hedong, and finally found the prime minister to study....

After going all the way, there was no local official to recommend and retain him... If this is a different person, then at least there must be a crazy name.

Where is his reputation just right, his age is just right, and his talent is just right...

This ability... Not bad! ”

Zhuge Liang got up again at this time, walked over directly and picked up the letter, and then sorted out the contents of it little by little.

Indeed, there doesn't seem to be any problem with these things, and Zhuge Liang Kong Ming didn't find out what the problem was before.

But Wei Wei, as an expert in this aspect, since he let him see it, then he simply designated him as Cao Wei's spy from the beginning, and then pushed him all the way back.

So in Wei Wei's eyes, where he passed... It's all a problem!

"If so, what exactly is this person trying to do?"

"I don't know!" Wei Yan shook his head directly, "Until now, it seems that Yinbo has always wanted to be by the prime minister's side.

But if it is said that he wants to divide the relationship between the prime minister and His Majesty based on this matter, it seems somewhat unlikely.

If it is said that His Majesty is not in good health, he wants to use this to strengthen the reputation of the prime minister, so that the prince will be jealous of the prime minister after he ascends the throne...

Well... This one.... uh...."

Wei Wei finally hesitated for a long time before he couldn't help but sigh.

"Then they underestimate our Royal Highness the Prince, it is estimated that if this is the case, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can rightfully go back to the palace to play and listen to music..."

Hey! Bad luck!

At this time, Wei Wei thought of what he was doing in Jiangdong now, and he really didn't know what to say.

If it weren't for the fact that the old general Zhao Yun really doted on that highness, he would have been sent back by another person, and this would have covered another palace in Jiangdong...

Good guy, I don't know that I think that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince plans to move the capital to Jiangdong.
