In the world, the envoys and others know my intentions. "

"It's my fault that I never let the ministers in Sichuan see the talent of the prime minister's generals." Liu Bei said slowly: "The prime minister's talent surpasses that of Guan Yue. In the past, when I was lonely and poor, the prime minister could still have a very limited number of soldiers and horses. Qian Liang helped me connect the four counties of Jingzhou and lay the initial foundation. After Pang Junshi left, the prime minister led the troops into Sichuan, divided counties and counties with Zilong and Yide, and encircled Chengdu. Strategies were planned and the command was determined. The change of Baidi City It is difficult to defend and attack, and it is as solid as gold, and it is the prime minister himself who leads the crowd to conquer. The prime minister uses troops, and he is inferior to the famous generals of ancient times. Its building is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Although Sun Wu led the army in ancient times, it may not have surpassed this."

"In the past, I was defeated in every battle. Later, with the advice of Prime Minister Lai, Fang Ming made a general plan. Yunchang, Yide, Zilong, Hansheng, Shuzhi, etc. also learned the method of generals taught by Kong Ming. Feidan Chen soldiers lined up, and even camps Obstacles should be dealt with by Shengmo, so in the future, every battle will be conquered. The prime minister worked hard day and night, teaching soldiers and martial arts, and cultivated for me a strong army capable of conquering wars. Otherwise, you think that with the prime minister's age, how can he manage it? These senior and old ministers under my command, arrogant soldiers and powerful generals?" Liu Bei said, looking at Zhao Yun and several former Jingzhou ministers: "Qing and others have seen it personally. Are my words exaggerated?"

Zhao Yun, Ma Di and others all knelt and bowed deeply: "What Your Majesty said is true."

All the ministers had to obey when they heard this.Although the prime minister does not fight with the army, how many things he has done for His Majesty behind his back is easily overlooked by people.But listen to Liu Bei continued: "The prime minister is in command of the army, and he may not come out of Sun Wu. However, the talent of managing the people is better than Xiao He's Guan Zhong. There is no one who is wrong among the ministers. I do not want the prime minister to be close to each other for my own selfishness, so Years after year, he was ordered to guard Chengdu, to provide enough food and soldiers for me, to protect the country and the people... Unexpectedly, the Qing and others were mistaken for the talent of the prime minister, who was only suitable for politics..."

All the ministers in Chuanzhong said in a low voice: "I am ashamed."

But seeing Liu Bei smiled again: "It's fine, it's fine. The artifact of the country should not be shown to others. Even Qing and others have not seen the ability of the prime minister to lead the army. When talking about Cao Wei, I only know that except for Liu Bei in Shu, there is no one else to command the army. .In the coming year, the Prime Minister’s troops will go out of Mount Qi, shake Guanzhong, and make them fearful and unprepared. But it is also an excellent opportunity for the Prime Minister to plant.”

Liu Bei was silent for a while, and then said: "Prime Minister Wentao and Wushu are rare in the world. For hundreds of years, there is only one person who can compare with him."

All the ministers looked at each other, but they didn't know who Liu Bei was talking about.Seeing that His Majesty remained silent and did not continue, Zhao Yun finally couldn't bear it anymore and knelt down and asked, "Who is Your Majesty talking about?"

Liu Bei looked at the crowd: "I think the prime minister's talent and virtue can only be compared with Emperor Guangwu's. The prime minister's name originally has the meaning of light, and I ordered the crown prince to designate him as the Marquis of Wuxiang, which is exactly what it means."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.Zhuge Liang knelt down under the couch, and kowtowed: "Your Majesty! Could it be that you want to break your heart!...Please take back this statement, Your Majesty!"

"Heh." Liu Bei smiled and looked at Zhuge Liang: "You are not joking!"

When the civil and military officials heard Liu Bei's words, although they knew that His Majesty and the Prime Minister had a deep relationship, they were shocked and speechless.Zhao Yun and several veteran ministers sighed silently in their hearts.

But seeing Liu Bei looking at Zhuge Liang who was prostrate on the ground, his eyes were gentle: "My ancestor, Emperor Wu, loves the people like a son, and governs the country well. His bravery and strategy are far better than Emperor Gao. I have the name of Emperor Gao to know people, and I am also brave. However. My intellect is short, and my actions are at a loss. Fortunately, Lai Qing and others have tried their best to make good plans and pour the power of Teng, and they have helped me so far. The prime minister is not only Xiao He's talent. It is my own selfishness, and I have not been able to use the prime minister's weapon. The prime minister ...It was I who covered up your light!"

"So far, the great man has exhausted his energy. I am a commoner, so I can have thorns and benefits, and protect its rocks. It is all because the prime minister has followed him regardless of life and death, and has worked hard to assist him so far. There are mistakes. In the future, only Kong Ming will be able to unify the world and sow a peaceful spring for the people..."

"I know the loyalty of the prime minister, there is no other in the world. However, the prince's will is uncertain, not as good as I know the prime minister. If one day he is deceived by a traitor and sycophant, causing chaos in the government, it will be the end of the world... I am already at the end of the day. In troubled times and nights, fortunately Xingyue Kongming. How can you let the dog swallow the moon, and the common people will live in the dark night forever, really hopeless. Prime Minister, get up and sit beside me." Liu Bei said warmly.

Zhuge Liang got up and sat down on the side of the couch, and all the ministers burst into tears when they saw that the prime minister was still standing.

"Prime Minister," Liu Bei held Zhuge Liang's hands: "You are ten times as talented as Cao Pi, and you will surely be able to secure the country and make great decisions. If your heir can assist you, assist him. If you are not talented, you can take it yourself."

"...!!" All the ministers seemed to have been stunned by Liu Bei's words.The entire chamber was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling.No one dared to take a breath.Liu Bei's words couldn't be more clear: I have given the prime minister absolute power to preside over the state affairs.Even if he abolishes the emperor and establishes another, that is also my permission!From then on, no one can question the prime minister's power in matters below the abolition and establishment!

But seeing Zhuge Liang weeping, he replied word by word: "Your Majesty! I dare to exhaust my strength, serve the festival of loyalty, and then die!"

But Liu Bei sighed: "Why did the prime minister say death? You should live on! You will bring a country to life, not to death. The road is long and difficult... Therefore, I hope you will live long, so that you can revitalize the great man , the day of unifying the world. I, who is about to die, want to see a vigorous life. The prime minister should be strong and prosperous, why do you say death?"

Zhuge Liang nodded with tears in his eyes.Liu Bei looked at him, smiled slightly, and ordered the waiter: "Bring me my armor."

In the eyes of all the ministers, the attendant agreed and turned away.After a while, he took the Mingguang armor that Liu Bei had been wearing for many years, and offered it with both hands.Liu Bei took it and looked at Zhuge Liang: "The prime minister is coming to Japan to make a northern expedition to unify the world. As the commander in chief, he will kiss Mao Shishi, carry the drum, meet the army gate, and lead the army to attack the city. On the battlefield, arrows and stones have no eyes, and swords and soldiers are ruthless... Prime Minister, I can no longer protect you and fight for you. In the future, Kong Ming... must be cherished...!"

Zhuge Liang wept and knelt on the ground, holding the armor with both hands.The metal tentacles were cold, but Liu Bei's hand was warm.The emperor held the prime minister's hands tightly, as if thousands of instructions were in it, as heavy as this armor.Under the eyes of everyone, the two monarchs and ministers held each other for a long time, and Liu Beifang asked the waiter to take away the armor.

The officials who witnessed this scene were all moved. Zhao Yun, She Yuan and other important officials looked at each other and sighed with emotion.

"Zhengfang!" But Liu Bei called out.Li Yan was startled, and hurriedly got up: "The minister is here."

Liu Bei looked at him seriously: "Qing's talent is enough to guard one side. Kong Ming is guarding Chengdu, but he has no other skills. You need Qing to guard the gate of eastern Sichuan for him to prevent Eastern Wu. You two need to work together for the country, don't let me trust you!" "

Li Yan couldn't help looking up at Liu Bei.I saw that Liu Bei's eyes were harsh and severe, not at all as gentle and warm as when he faced the prime minister just now.That pair of emperor's eyes stared straight at his heart, and immediately kowtowed: "I take orders!"

Liu Bei turned to the ministers: "Masters, don't be afraid of my imminent death. You should rely on the prime minister, as if you look up to the sun and the moon, as if you obey my orders. The prime minister is entrusted by me and the country of the Netherlands is important. You and others should do their best to assist Of."

"Your Majesty," Zhuge Liang knelt and said in a loud voice, "I am a general with a weak talent. I am ashamed that I have no tricks from Sun Wu, but I have Tian Heng's courage. Famous generals who have survived the world, there are no city fathers or Han Xin. I deduce that the eight formations will be successful. If you personally raise tens of thousands of infantry and cross the Qinling Mountains, you can remain invincible. If there is a change in the Wei Dynasty, you can go forward and see the world, including the four seas. If you retreat, you can cross the border of the mausoleum and shake the universe!"

Liu Bei looked at him with a smile and nodded.Zhao Yun, Chen Dao and the generals were all excited.Zhao Yun stood up first, bowed to Liu Bei, then faced Zhuge Liang, half-kneeled on the ground, and said in a loud voice: "Yun is willing to go north with the prime minister to attack Wei, and let him be dispatched, and he will die!"

Ma Di, Shooting Yuan and others also got up, and then half-kneeled and clasped their fists: "I would like to go north with the prime minister to attack Wei and return my old capital! The ministers are at their disposal, and they will die!"

Zhuge Liang held a fan and saluted everyone: "Liang is here, and I deeply feel the trust and reliance of the princes. However, Liang is contemptuous and dark. If you can attack my shortcomings diligently and come up with good strategies, the Han Dynasty will prosper. In the days of the two capitals, we can count the days and wait!" After he finished speaking, he turned around and bowed to Liu Bei: "Your Majesty!"

Liu Bei nodded slowly: "The prime minister and all the ministers are like this... I have nothing to worry about."

As he spoke, he waved and ordered someone to help the prime minister up.Although the smile is joyful, the lips are so pale that there is almost no blood.This meeting actually consumed what little energy he had left.Seeing this, Zhuge Liang was extremely worried, and hurriedly ordered everyone to leave, and the imperial physician Fan Ah immediately went forward to ask for pulse.

31. Zichan Song

I have children, and the children will teach them.

I have Tianchou, and the sons reproduce it.

Whoever dies in childbirth will be the heir!

-- "Song of Childbirth"

When Liu Bei woke up from a coma, he saw Zhuge Liang guarding the side of the couch, staring at him blankly.

He held on for many days, and at this time he had exhausted his last ounce of strength to support Gu.However, when he saw the appearance of his own prime minister, he still couldn't help laughing: "This is the first time I have seen the prime minister's dumbfounded look."

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly.Liu Bei took a kit next to his pillow and handed it to Zhuge Liang: "The edict has already been written. Please look over it."

Zhuge Liang opened the kit, trembling handwriting came into his eyes--

I was ill at first but had diarrhea in the ear, and later it became complicated with other diseases, and I was hardly able to help myself.People don't die at fifty, and they are more than sixty years old, so why regret it?Don't hurt yourself anymore, but think about Brother Qing.When the king arrived, he said that the prime minister lamented that Qing's wisdom was greatly improved, which was beyond expectations.If the trial can be like this, why should I worry about it!Encourage it!Don't do good because it is small, and don't do evil because it is small.Only virtuous and virtue can convince others.Your father's virtue is weak, so don't imitate him.You can read "Hanshu" and "Book of Rites", and observe the philosophers and "Six Secret Teachings" and "Shang Junshu" in your spare time, which will benefit people's mind and wisdom.Wen Chengxiang has finished writing "Shen", "Han", "Guanzi" and "Six Secret Teachings".
