"General...... The Great General stays behind...... The prime minister is still resting...... The general ......" The old eunuch walked with an unsteady pace, followed Gao Changgong closely, and said in an eager voice: "The prime minister reviewed the excerpts last night until dawn, and it is hard to sleep for a while now......

However, Gao Changgong's eyes were sharp, and he still moved forward, and every step he took was as if he was about to stomp the bricks and stones on the ground out of a pit.

Seeing Gao Changgong like this, the old eunuch gritted his teeth, regardless of his old age, and suddenly quickly blocked Gao Changgong's face, at this moment, the two of them were only five steps away from the palace gate.

"Get out of the way!" Gao Changgong said angrily, his chest heaving, obviously with great anger.

"General...... It's not that the old slave wants to get along with you, it's just that the prime minister's health has been bad recently, and the national politics are heavy, so the imperial doctor just gave him acupuncture, and he slowly fell asleep, which is really not suitable for waking him up at this time. ”

"Wake up? Gao Changgong said coldly, "If he doesn't wake up again, this Jing Wu will be in chaos, and when the time comes, this palace will be burned to ruins, how long can he sleep in it?"

"The Great General......

"Princess. At this time, Zhuge Wanling's faint voice suddenly came from the hall, "Let him come in." ”

The old eunuch heard Zhuge Wanling's voice, and his shoulders trembled suddenly, and then his back slumped down, and he turned back into the humble old man in the palace, he lowered his head and slowly pushed open the heavy inner hall door.

Gao Changgong glanced at him, knowing that it was not easy for this old man to stay in the palace, and his voice softened a little: "Prince, rest assured, Zhuge Wanling is not only your prime minister, but also a friend who I have always entrusted my life to." I'm not going to do anything too much to him. ”

The old eunuch still lowered his head, and his voice was old and low: "General Mingjian, prime minister...... He really needs to have a good rest, and my Jing Wu military and political affairs are all tied to the hands of the prime minister, and thousands of Li people are directly pressed on his shoulders. If his body ......," he paused, "I'm too old to see anything happen in this palace anymore......"

Gao Changgong nodded, raised his feet and stepped into the high threshold, and walked straight to the side hall, Zhuge Wanling was sitting on the couch, his eyebrows were full of tiredness, his spirit also seemed a little sluggish, and his cheeks were even thinner.

Gao Changgong saw this situation, the anger in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace, he walked forward quickly, reached out and stroked Zhuge Wanling's forehead, and went to probe Zhuge Wanling's wrist vein, feeling that his body was indeed very weak at the moment, he lowered his voice and said, "Why did you make yourself like this?"

"It's okay. Zhuge Wanling said, "It's just that I've been a little tired lately, and I've not rested well." ”

"Nonsense. Gao Changgong glanced at him, "You also know that you haven't rested well? You don't know what your body is like? You can approve it at any time, and it won't be a big deal if it drags on for a day, but if you fall, who can replace you?"

"You say this as if someone can't wait to push me down......" Zhuge Wanling's expression stretched slightly, and he joked.

Gao Changgong glared at him and said, "I really can't wait for someone to replace you, and you continue to sit here and make the wind and rain and disturb the world." ”

Zhuge Wanling knew what he said about the wind and rain, smiled, and said, "You have endured it these days, why do you think that you want to enter the palace today?"

"I wanted to enter the palace a few days ago, but I thought you should know it, so I endured it for a few more days...... Now, I feel like I have to come. Gao Changgong's expression was serious, and he frowned and said: "What do you want to do? When we said killing, it was just for some inconsequential people, those who were not valued by the little scholars, and the uncle of the lord who jumped off the beam, and if he killed him, he would kill him, after all, he couldn't shake the foundation of those big families, and they didn't bother to run out to fight with you......

"Hmm......" Zhuge Wanling poured out some tea leaves from the tea barrel, put them in the cup, and listened patiently.

Gao Changgong's voice became more and more stern, and he said: "But what are you doing now? No matter how many officials are involved in the case of destroying the embankment and flooding the fields, after all, most of the officials of the central government have not been directly involved, and at most they have accepted a little bribe from the people below and turned a blind eye. It's good for you, there have been more than 1,000 officials executed by the Tingwei Mansion in the past few days, not counting those who have been exiled, confiscated into the army, and degraded...... Although, in terms of national law, they are indeed unforgivable, but what good can you get from such a killing spree?"

Zhuge Wanling finally coughed, stretched out his hand to grab the kettle on the table, at the same time, Gao Changgong's hand reached out to the table first, raised his hand and poured it, the spout slowly flowed out of a silver line, with the sound of la-la, a cup of tea was already brewed.

"Thank you. Zhuge Wanling took a sip of the teacup, looking a little better, in fact, the tea barrel is not as ordinary people imagine what is the best tea, according to him this is an old friend specially prepared for him medicinal tea, sent from a long distance, bitter and astringent, ordinary people are afraid that they will feel unacceptable even when they smell it, not to mention that they have to use it as white water in the morning, noon and evening.

Not only in the morning, noon and evening, Zhuge Wanling drank it for three years, and there was never a day of interruption, even if he went to Daoxiang Village and the tomb of King Ye before, he did not forget to carry the concentrated pill made of this medicinal tea with him.

"Somebody always has to do things. Zhuge Wanling said: "Jing Wu...... In other words, since the division of the Wu State, there have been serious drawbacks, and if you want to cure the poison, you must scrape the bones three layers before you can touch the lesion. Over the years, for the sake of the overall situation, I have been greedy and troublesome by those people, which has made them more and more emboldened, and only then has there been the shocking case of destroying embankments and flooding fields. Although you can't do it overnight, you can't really leave it alone......"

"So, do you really take a knife to dig up the flesh and scrape the bones?" Gao Chang sighed: "That's more than a thousand people, kill if you say kill, do you think the scholars can swallow this breath?"

"Those are the things I have to worry about, you have to train the army well, the sooner the better. I have a hunch that it won't be long...... I'm afraid that there will be another storm of war in this world. ”

Gao Changgong glared at him in surprise and said, "How can it be so fast? Shiguo has only been stable for a few years, and he is going to war again?"

Zhuge Wanling stretched out his hand, took out a white silk from the table, handed it over, and said calmly: "Just look at it." ”

Gao Changgong took the white silk, on which were a few lines of special text, written in a strange shape, but it was not difficult for him to read, because this kind of text originated in the army, and was specially used to encrypt some extremely important information.

With such a method of text encryption, even if the messenger is intercepted and killed on the road, the enemy country will not be able to immediately obtain the information on the front line.

"The people you are talking about...... Went to Canghai and Tang Kingdom?" Gao Changgong carefully read the content on the white silk, his eyes were full of solemnity, "When is this news?"

"Arrived a month ago. ”

"Didn't you tell me a month ago. Gao Changgong glared at him, "Such an important matter......

Zhuge Wanling said softly: "Those messengers with black pans have started a new round of mission operations, I think, many things will slowly become uncontrollable, and even if we can sit still, Jing Wu will not have so much time." ”

Of course, Gao Changgong knew the power represented by the black pan, but to this day, he still couldn't understand what that power was and what it was going to do, they were like a nightmare hidden in the shadows, but he couldn't help but be vigilant.

What about Liu De in the sea? Has he already seen the shocking changes that his family is about to face?

In addition to Canghai and the Tang Kingdom, could there also be some forces infiltrating the garrison of the Great Wall?

Gao Changgong clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth in his heart and said: "That towering and stretching copper wall that has stood for thousands of years must not have any mistakes!

Thinking of this, Gao Changgong began to understand Zhuge Wanling a little, he was so anxious to deal with the current internal worries, it seemed that there was indeed a reason for him.

But he still said worriedly: "You, you're still going a little too far...... Although it is not against the medical principles to use strong medicine for serious diseases, what if the dose is too heavy and the patient is directly cured?"

Zhuge Wanling smiled and said, "It's okay, I have my own measure." ”

Gao Changgong glanced at Zhuge Wanling's never unwavering expression, and snorted coldly: "Yes, yes, there seems to be nothing in this world that you can't grasp, what I'm worried about is not how things will develop, what I'm worried about is your attitude." ”

"Let's talk about something else...... Zhuge Wanling suddenly changed his words, didn't want to continue the previous topic, and said: "Qin Ke who you told me last time...... What, what's wrong with him?"

"Shhh...... This little friend of yours," Gao Changgong glanced at him meaningfully, and said: "Although he is gradually integrated into Jingwu's Taixue Hall now, he still looks at how he has changed, I feel that he has not regarded himself as a Jingwu person from his bones, at best he is just a tourist who temporarily lives in Jingwu." ”

"So?" Zhuge Wanling asked with a smile.

Gao Changgong smiled and sighed, finally stretched his tightly knit brows, and said a little jokingly: "In this case, it is better to let him and Abu learn the ability to fight with me, at least if he leaves Jing Wu in the future, he will not suffer, right?"
