[Comprehensive + Sword Three] Wu'an World
Chapter 83
For Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, they faced a very serious problem.
Singing or something... It's not that I can't sing, but I can't control the tune at all!
Especially when it comes to shouting and the like, Zhuge Liang feels that whenever he is facing the empty and uninhabited mountains and forests recently, whenever he wants to make a shout, he always opens his mouth and roars out the song named by Su Yunqing. tune.
...It's really embarrassing to think about it like this _(:зゝ∠)_
But if you say not to go, that doesn't seem to be good. People invite you kindly, and if you don't go, you will lose face. Originally, everyone's friendship is just so little. If you still don't give face like this, it is obvious that you want someone to make enemies.
Pang Tong thought for a while, and asked Zhuge Liang in a low voice, "How is your drinking capacity, Kong Ming?"
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang immediately understood what Pang Tong meant, and he also replied in a low voice: "It's okay."
It is acceptable, but the confidence revealed in Zhuge Liang's eyes shows that his drinking capacity will never be too bad.
It's good to talk to smart people. Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang understood each other's intentions with just one look.
If you can't sing, if you are afraid of accidents, then don't sing.
Anyway, singing is not the main point. I am afraid that this group of people will talk more about world affairs when they get together. At that time, they will just talk and drink, and when they want to play, it is time to sing, just pretend to be drunk.
No matter what, you are always embarrassed to ask someone who is already drunk on the table to get up and sing, right?
It was actually a good plan, and things went smoothly.
Most of these students have not yet become official, so they are relatively simple. Naturally, they cannot be compared with Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, who have spent a lot of time in Bingzhou officialdom, but this does not mean that these people are worthless. On the contrary, the value of these people Still big.
Although there are sayings about poor culture and rich military, considering how precious books and knowledge are in this era, it is possible to stop working and producing for a living at such an old age, but continue to stay in the academy to study, and go out for study tours from time to time. It can be seen that these The situation at home of the students is not bad, otherwise they would have to find a way to make a living, how could they be so leisurely.
The family situation is different, and the people they can come into contact with are naturally different. In addition, these students all have great ambitions and want to make a career, so they pay more attention to many things.
If there is any major event in Jingzhou recently, it is naturally that Liu Biao's health is not good, but Liu Biao is hesitant about the issue of heirs, so Jingzhou has no reasonable principal so far.
Because Liu Biao's attitude was unclear, the situation in Jingzhou became more chaotic and the struggle became more intense.
However, according to the observations of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, although Liu Biao has several sons, there are actually only two who are really competitive, one is the eldest son Liu Qi, and the other is the second son Liu Cong.
Zhuge Liang drank a glass of wine with him with a modest face, and then said casually: "There is such a fierce competition, it seems that the two young masters are both talented for a while, and they are evenly matched."
As soon as these words came out, a student wearing a blue scarf sneered: "Where did the talented people come from, let alone two, even one of them can be regarded as a talented person, and the current situation will not be like this .”
To put it bluntly, the two sons of Liu Biao are currently inseparable, not because they have high IQ and high rank, but actually because they are both two wars and five scumbags.
But no one objected to what he said, because it was too obvious, so even if he said it was really disrespectful to Liu Biao, who is the shepherd of Jingzhou, no one said anything about him. In fact, everyone agreed. agree with this statement.
Do you know what Liu Biao's two sons did in the face of the current situation?In fact, the two of them didn't do anything, or it can't be said that they didn't do anything, it should be said that they didn't do any useful things.
Faced with this situation, is it time to engage in internal divisions?Isn't this stupid!
No matter how hard you are torn internally, there is no use for it, not to mention that Liu Biao may feel uncomfortable when brothers are fighting. It can be said that the more fierce the fight between Liu Qi and Liu Cong, the more Liu Biao is actually worried about passing the position to them.
Without him, these two are looking at the problem from the opponent's point of view, but Liu Biao is looking at the problem from the father's point of view. Liu Biao is a Jingzhou shepherd, but he is also a father. All the sons will be fine, but now that the brothers are fighting against each other, can Liu Biao choose an heir with confidence?
It is estimated that Liu Biao was worried in his heart that once he died, one of his sons would kill the other son!
Therefore, there is no use for internal struggle eggs.
What's more, it is said that the two sons are fighting, but in fact it is the interest groups behind them fighting. At this time, the more fierce the fight, the more the other party will be offended. No matter who controls Jingzhou in the future, Jingzhou will probably lose Fall in half.
In fact, the smartest way is not to highlight yourself through internal struggles, or to say that internal struggles are absolutely unnecessary, and you should be a quiet white lotus internally.
Smart people should know that it is not only Liu Biao who can really decide the successor of Jingzhou at this time, Liu Biao only has half of the decision-making power in his hands, and the other half is with Su Yunqing and Liu Bei.
For example, if Liu Biao decides Liu Cong as his heir, but Su Yunqing refuses to agree, or Su Yunqing firmly opposes and intends to support Liu Qi, then is it true that Su Yunqing can't do such a thing?Of course she can do it, because the imperial court is currently in her hands, even if Liu Biao decides on the next Jingzhou shepherd, he still needs to submit a letter to the imperial court for approval.
But everyone knows that Su Yunqing's attitude is the attitude of the court, Su Yunqing disagrees, this Jingzhou shepherd is illegal, and Liu Biao can't speak well.
This era mainly depends on fists. Jingzhou's fists are not as good as Su Yunqing's, so they don't have the ability to shake off Su Yunqing and stand on their own. At least they can't openly hit Su Yunqing in the face, otherwise the feud will be forged.
Besides, who is Su Yunqing?If you have her support, are you still worried that you won't be able to be a Jingzhou shepherd?
As for Liu Bei, as the prince closest to Jingzhou and not weak, Liu Bei's attitude naturally needs to be taken care of. If he can get Liu Bei's support, he is actually no worse than Su Yunqing.
Purely in terms of strength comparison, Su Yunqing is indeed stronger than Liu Bei, but one thing that cannot be ignored is that although Su Yunqing represents the imperial court, she is far away from the water. Naturally, it will take a lot of effort to quench the thirst of the distant water, but Liu Bei is different. He is leaning next to Jingzhou. No matter who is in power in Jingzhou, he has to deal with Liu Bei, so it will be different if he has Liu Bei's support.
Although Liu Bei is a threat to Jingzhou, it does not mean that Liu Bei's power cannot be used.
Therefore, it is Liu Biao who needs to be won internally, and Su Yunqing and Liu Bei who need to be won externally. As for the great noble families in Jingzhou, they each have their own interests, and it is not easy to unify them as a son without real power. Yes, so it's enough to maintain a good relationship with them, and it doesn't have to be a friend or an enemy, because once you have the support of Su Yunqing and Liu Bei, and Liu Biao feels at ease, then the position will not be able to escape.
As long as they have the support of powerful factions and become candidates for the next Jingzhou shepherd, then these big families in Jingzhou are not stupid, and they don't have to make trouble with their future bosses. At this time, they don't even need to do anything, they will naturally turn around .
However, Liu Biao's two young masters are completely opposite to this strategy. They rely on the strength of their big family to fight against their opponents. As for Su Yunqing and Liu Bei... what is that?No time!
Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong chatted with this group of students for a long time, and they roughly figured out a lot of things, such as Liu Biao's personality, character and behavior, who is behind them, and what is the relationship between these people some type of……
Seeing that the information set was almost complete, Zhuge Liang gave Pang Tong a wink, and immediately began to pretend to be drunk, and was about to get under the table in a daze.
Pang Tong understood in seconds. While everyone was making fun of Zhuge Liang for his poor drinking capacity, he protected Zhuge Liang from the wine and drank a few glasses with several people in a row, and then began to pretend to be confused.
When Zhuge Liang completely fell under the small table and fell asleep leaning against the mat on which he was sitting, Pang Tong also fell asleep lying on the small table in an indecent posture.
When everyone saw it, well, the two men were all drunk.
Looking at the two civil servants of Bingzhou who were drunk, the group of students couldn't help but shook their heads and sighed: "Scholar Yuan Kongming's knowledge and character are all extraordinary, but unfortunately this drink is too bad, not to say that Bingzhou is close to the border. Can everyone drink? How come these two people have been in Bingzhou for so many years, but their drinking capacity is so poor. Could it be that there are many heroes in Bingzhou just rumors?"
This argument was very much agreed by everyone, so everyone laughed together that the bold and bold frontier people are not as good as these southern scholars...
"What are you talking about! Who can't drink it!"
Dian Wei, who was notified by the little book boy guarding the side to come pick him up, heard someone laughing at Bing Zhou, and immediately became unhappy.
In Dianwei's view, Bingzhou is the most beautiful place in the whole Han Dynasty. The lord is good, the civil servants are good, the generals are good, the soldiers are good, and the people are good. I don't know how to praise it, but it's good!
Dian Wei is a real person, he can't tolerate being ridiculed like this when he thinks it's good, how can Bingzhou be so sissy?
Dian Wei stared at the group of frail scholars in front of him, thinking about his master, thinking about the younger sister of the Sun family, the girls in Bingzhou look more manly than you!
Seeing Dian Wei like this, a scholar immediately said: "Why not? You see, these two people are from Bingzhou. Didn't they both drink a few cups and then pour it out? They didn't enjoy themselves at all."
Dian Wei felt that what he said was wrong, but he was stupid and didn't know how to refute it, but he also knew that Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang were good boys, and he liked them very much, even if he didn't know how to refute, he had to defend his friend. knew.
Thinking of this, Dian Wei immediately said: "Then what is there to say, drink with me if you have the ability!"
As he said that, he didn't need others to nod, he went to open a jar of wine and slapped it on the table: "Come on! I don't want a small cup, just drink like this!"
Dian Wei's actions immediately stunned everyone present, but these students are also arrogant, aren't they just drinking?Could it be that with so many of them, Dian Wei would fail?
Not much to say, the two sides directly started to fight for wine, and when the wine they brought was finished, they asked people to go back to get it again. The wine was not finished until sunset, and at this time, except for Dian Wei, everyone else in the field Almost all of them drank.
Dian Wei wiped his mouth: "Hmph, you dare to talk about drinking capacity at your level, you really think I can't do it without anyone in Bingzhou!"
Having said that, Dian Wei added another sentence: "As for Shi Yuan and Kong Ming, I don't think you can compare to women. My lord is the one who can drink me to the ground. That is a real man and a pure man!"
While mocking the group of drunken scholars, Dian Wei picked up Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang one by one with each hand: "Hey, I told you two, if you can't drink, don't drink it. If you insist on drinking, don't take me with you. These civil servants have a lot of things to do, and they might have a headache again when they go back."
He complained so much, but Dianwei was still very careful with his movements, trying not to make Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang feel uncomfortable.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhuge Liang, who seemed quite drunk, opened his eyes: "...Don't talk about it, Lao Dian, I'm not drunk."
Dian Wei was taken aback: "Ah? Not drunk? Kongming boy, are you lying?"
Zhuge Liang waved his hand: "I'm not drunk, if you don't believe me, put me down, I'll take a few steps to show you, and make sure I'm safe."
Zhuge Liang knew Dian Wei's temper, so he didn't care about his words. He just proved to Dian Wei that he was not drunk, and then explained to Dian Wei that this was actually planned by him and Pang Tong.
"Ah? It's planned?" Dian Wei was still holding Pang Tong in one hand, and scratched his head with the other: "Then why didn't you tell me, I really thought you were drunk and wanted to vent your anger on you."
After speaking, Dian Wei asked again: "Then, what happened to me just now didn't cause you any trouble, did it?"
Dian Wei is afraid that these smart people have some plans, and if he accidentally destroys them, it will be bad. If it is not possible to delay the Lord's affairs, then his crime will be serious.
Zhuge Liang waved his hand: "It's not a big deal, by the way, Shi Yuan, we've come so far, don't pretend, it's time to wake up."
Pang Tong: "..."
Seeing that Pang Tong didn't respond, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but patted Pang Tong: "Shi Yuan, Shi Yuan wake up, we've gone far, don't pretend..."
"Oh, boy Kong Ming, stop screaming, Shi Yuan is asleep."
Zhuge Liang: "..."
Oh yes, Pang Tong drank a lot more than him, and later said that he was pretending to sleep, but it is quite normal to accidentally fall asleep after lying on his stomach with his eyes closed for so long _(:зゝ∠)_
After roughly figuring out the situation in Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong officially visited Sima Hui the next day.
Of course, this official visit was made as an envoy from Bingzhou, which was completely different from the previous private visits.
Facing Sima Hui, it was Pang Tong, a student from many years ago, who spoke as a representative. After all, the relationship was closer and Sima Hui trusted him more.
Pang Tong first said that although he came here for the successor issue of Jingzhou, Jingzhou was too chaotic. The court hoped that Jingzhou could continue to be like it was when Liu Biao was in charge. Now Liu Biao doesn’t care. This is really not good for Jingzhou and the people of Jingzhou.
Everyone knows this truth, and there is no need to say it again, but Pang Tong just said it.
Later, he told Sima Hui that Bingzhou had no ambitions for Jingzhou, but only hoped that Jingzhou could elect a benevolent and wise master.
Pang Tong is not lying. No one in Bingzhou, including Su Yunqing, wants the person in charge of Jingzhou to be a useless idiot. After all, this person will be Su Yunqing's key support object in the next few years, and he and Liu Bei will be counted on. If it is a pig teammate with too low ability, then it is not Liu Bei but Su Yunqing himself who is cheating.
Of course, if you want to say that if the new owner of Bingzhou is too wise, wouldn't it be bad for Su Yunqing to go south in the future?
In fact, the reason is also simple, Liu Biao's sons are completely dwarf generals, and Liu Biao can't stop Su Yunqing from going south when Liu Biao is there, let alone they are not as good as Liu Biao.
What Su Yunqing wants is someone with a bit of brains, someone who won't drag teammates down. With her support, he can fight with Liu Bei. Look, the premise that Jingzhou can fight with Liu Bei is Su Yunqing's support. This aspect gave Su Yunqing time to slowly infiltrate Jingzhou, on the other hand, in fact, without Su Yunqing's support, Jingzhou wouldn't be able to play for long.
Because of such confidence and premise, Pang Tong kept pretending to be a white lotus in front of Sima Hui, as if he was thinking about Jingzhou. Of course, in fact, choosing a wise heir for Jingzhou is indeed true It's for Jingzhou's sake, you can't say that Pang Tong is hypocritical, this is his purpose.
Pang Tong is really good at cooking chicken soup and selling Amway, and even though his image is not very good, he has the essence of pretending to be a white lotus, so Sima Hui was soon persuaded by him.
Sima Hui thought for a while and asked, "Then I wonder which young master the Prime Minister likes more?"
Pang Tongtong smiled: "Both young masters are momentarily outstanding. The eldest son is benevolent and intelligent, while the second son is pure and kind. Whoever you choose is good."
Pang Tong didn't say who to choose, but the meaning in his words was already there.
The second son's innocence and kindness are naturally good, but such an evaluation is too bad for the lord of a state. In contrast, although the benevolent and intelligent evaluation of the eldest son Liu Qi is a panacea, it is not a bad word after all. At least not as a shortcoming. Compared with the two, how could Sima Hui not understand what Pang Tong meant?
But Sima Hui didn't say anything, because he himself had such a bias, and he also thought that the eldest son Liu Qi was better.
Don't talk about character, let's talk about family background. Liu Qi is both the eldest son and the first son. Compared with the other younger brothers, there is nothing worthy of criticism. Obviously, whether it is the eldest son's inheritance or the first son's inheritance, Liu Qi has been accounted for. Except, Liu Qi is not as good as Liu Qi Cong De Liu Biao likes this.
Regarding this, Sima Hui thought for a while and gave Pang Tong an idea, asking him to go to Huang Chengyan. Huang Chengyan is also a good friend of Sima Hui. He married a woman from the wealthy Cai family. He won the trust of Liu Biao and held the military power in Jingzhou.
On the other hand, Liu Biao's current wife, Cai Shi, Liu Biao also listens to her very much. Cai Shi is Cai Mao's second sister and the younger sister of Huang Chengyan's wife.
Sima Hui himself didn't care much about these things, so although he thought Liu Qi was good, he didn't intervene. At this time, Pang Tong wanted to support Liu Qi, so he simply gave such an idea.
The reason why Liu Cong can become Liu Qi's strong competitor is because Liu Cong is liked by Cai Shi, and Liu Biao listens to Cai Shi's, and it is inevitable that he will favor Liu Cong after listening too much.
As for Cai's support for Liu Cong, that's something Pang Tong needs to consider, and Sima Hui doesn't care.
Of course Pang Tong didn't feel that Sima Hui's move was irresponsible. Sima Hui had already pointed out the crux of the problem for him. .
So Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong tidied up and went to visit Huang Chengyan soon. This time, considering Pang Tong's image, Huang Chengyan and Pang Tong were not that familiar, so Zhuge Liang was the main one, and Pang Tong was only in the name of Sima Hui and Mr. Pang De. It's just a bridge.
This is enough, Zhuge Liang naturally has the ability to persuade Huang Chengyan, Huang Chengyan and Sima Hui are actually similar, they are not official, but they also care about world affairs, now Zhuge Liang is here to explain the truth to him, explaining the difference between Liu Qi and Liu Cong , and to a certain extent imply that if Liu Qi inherits, then the future Jingzhou must be as stable as Mount Tai, but if it is Liu Cong, we have to talk about it...
Still the same sentence, talking to smart people is very easy, Zhuge Liang is just a few hints that are not salty, Huang Chengyan has already understood the meaning, and Zhuge Liang has said a lot before, and said that in fact Sima Hui was also optimistic about Liu Qi, so Huang Chengyan was also shaken.
Once Huang Chengyan firmly supported Liu Qi, then as Huang Chengyan's wife, the eldest daughter of the Cai family should naturally influence the family.
And as long as Cai's internal opinions are inconsistent, the support they can provide to Liu Cong will be limited.
The next step is to deal with Cai Mao and Liu Biao. Both Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong know that Liu Biao's wife can be ignored, because the eldest sister's attitude is clear, and Cai Mao, who is the younger brother and in control of real power, has also made a statement. Liu Biao's wife has to follow suit. Change your attitude.
So after doing enough foreshadowing, Zhuge Liang got the opportunity to meet Liu Biao as an imperial envoy through his uncle's relationship.
Not long after, Su Yunqing received a letter from Pang Tong in Bingzhou, telling her that the matter in Jingzhou was almost settled.
In his letter, Pang Tong talked about a lot of things about them in Jingzhou. When he was there, he also mentioned Zhuge Liang. He will definitely not complain to Su Yunqing because of this, because he has gained love.
...yes, I got love.
Su Yunqing: "..."
Should it be said that it is Zhuge Liang?Work and love are right!
Thinking about it this way, Su Yunqing told Zhou Yu about this incident by the way, and said with a look of disgust: "Look at what level Kong Ming is, and then look at you, alas, I let you go when you were in a relationship before." It’s really worrying to be on leave for such a long time.”
Look at Zhuge Liang, who is working, and by the way, he fell in love.
Zhou Yu: "...my lord, I'm going to work overtime."
Isn't it just working overtime?Just add him! (╯‵口′)╯︵┻━┻
Su Yunqing was immediately satisfied: "It's not good to work overtime, but since Gongjin is so caring, I can't refuse. Come, Zhaoji, give Gongjin the pile of bamboo slips that Zhongde sent over earlier."
Zhou Yu: "..."
Why do I feel that my protagonist is becoming more and more unreliable_(:зゝ∠)_
Singing or something... It's not that I can't sing, but I can't control the tune at all!
Especially when it comes to shouting and the like, Zhuge Liang feels that whenever he is facing the empty and uninhabited mountains and forests recently, whenever he wants to make a shout, he always opens his mouth and roars out the song named by Su Yunqing. tune.
...It's really embarrassing to think about it like this _(:зゝ∠)_
But if you say not to go, that doesn't seem to be good. People invite you kindly, and if you don't go, you will lose face. Originally, everyone's friendship is just so little. If you still don't give face like this, it is obvious that you want someone to make enemies.
Pang Tong thought for a while, and asked Zhuge Liang in a low voice, "How is your drinking capacity, Kong Ming?"
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang immediately understood what Pang Tong meant, and he also replied in a low voice: "It's okay."
It is acceptable, but the confidence revealed in Zhuge Liang's eyes shows that his drinking capacity will never be too bad.
It's good to talk to smart people. Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang understood each other's intentions with just one look.
If you can't sing, if you are afraid of accidents, then don't sing.
Anyway, singing is not the main point. I am afraid that this group of people will talk more about world affairs when they get together. At that time, they will just talk and drink, and when they want to play, it is time to sing, just pretend to be drunk.
No matter what, you are always embarrassed to ask someone who is already drunk on the table to get up and sing, right?
It was actually a good plan, and things went smoothly.

It can be seen that these The situation at home of the students is not bad, otherwise they would have to find a way to make a living, how could they be so leisurely.
The family situation is different, and the people they can come into contact with are naturally different. In addition, these students all have great ambitions and want to make a career, so they pay more attention to many things.
If there is any major event in Jingzhou recently, it is naturally that Liu Biao's health is not good, but Liu Biao is hesitant about the issue of heirs, so Jingzhou has no reasonable principal so far.

Dian Wei stared at the group of frail scholars in front of him, thinking about his master, thinking about the younger sister of the Sun family, the girls in Bingzhou look more manly than you!
Seeing Dian Wei like this, a scholar immediately said: "Why not? You see, these two people are from Bingzhou. Didn't they both drink a few cups and then pour it out? They didn't enjoy themselves at all."
Dian Wei felt that what he said was wrong, but he was stupid and didn't know how to refute it, but he also knew that Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang were good boys, and he liked them very much, even if he didn't know how to refute, he had to defend his friend. knew.
Thinking of this, Dian Wei immediately said: "Then what is there to say, drink with me if you have the ability!"
As he said that, he didn't need others to nod, he went to open a jar of wine and slapped it on the table: "Come on! I don't want a small cup, just drink like this!"
Dian Wei's actions immediately stunned everyone present, but these students are also arrogant, aren't they just drinking?Could it be that with so many of them, Dian Wei would fail?
Not much to say, the two sides directly started to fight for wine, and when the wine they brought was finished, they asked people to go back to get it again. The wine was not finished until sunset, and at this time, except for Dian Wei, everyone else in the field Almost all of them drank.
Dian Wei wiped his mouth: "Hmph, you dare to talk about drinking capacity at your level, you really think I can't do it without anyone in Bingzhou!"
Having said that, Dian Wei added another sentence: "As for Shi Yuan and Kong Ming, I don't think you can compare to women. My lord is the one who can drink me to the ground. That is a real man and a pure man!"
While mocking the group of drunken scholars, Dian Wei picked up Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang one by one with each hand: "Hey, I told you two, if you can't drink, don't drink it. If you insist on drinking, don't take me with you. These civil servants have a lot of things to do, and they might have a headache again when they go back."
He complained so much, but Dianwei was still very careful with his movements, trying not to make Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang feel uncomfortable.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhuge Liang, who seemed quite drunk, opened his eyes: "...Don't talk about it, Lao Dian, I'm not drunk."
Dian Wei was taken aback: "Ah? Not drunk? Kongming boy, are you lying?"
Zhuge Liang waved his hand: "I'm not drunk, if you don't believe me, put me down, I'll take a few steps to show you, and make sure I'm safe."
Zhuge Liang knew Dian Wei's temper, so he didn't care about his words. He just proved to Dian Wei that he was not drunk, and then explained to Dian Wei that this was actually planned by him and Pang Tong.
"Ah? It's planned?" Dian Wei was still holding Pang Tong in one hand, and scratched his head with the other: "Then why didn't you tell me, I really thought you were drunk and wanted to vent your anger on you."
After speaking, Dian Wei asked again: "Then, what happened to me just now didn't cause you any trouble, did it?"
Dian Wei is afraid that these smart people have some plans, and if he accidentally destroys them, it will be bad. If it is not possible to delay the Lord's affairs, then his crime will be serious.
Zhuge Liang waved his hand: "It's not a big deal, by the way, Shi Yuan, we've come so far, don't pretend, it's time to wake up."
Pang Tong: "..."
Seeing that Pang Tong didn't respond, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but patted Pang Tong: "Shi Yuan, Shi Yuan wake up, we've gone far, don't pretend..."
"Oh, boy Kong Ming, stop screaming, Shi Yuan is asleep."
Zhuge Liang: "..."
Oh yes, Pang Tong drank a lot more than him, and later said that he was pretending to sleep, but it is quite normal to accidentally fall asleep after lying on his stomach with his eyes closed for so long _(:зゝ∠)_
After roughly figuring out the situation in Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong officially visited Sima Hui the next day.
Of course, this official visit was made as an envoy from Bingzhou, which was completely different from the previous private visits.
Facing Sima Hui, it was Pang Tong, a student from many years ago, who spoke as a representative. After all, the relationship was closer and Sima Hui trusted him more.
Pang Tong first said that although he came here for the successor issue of Jingzhou, Jingzhou was too chaotic. The court hoped that Jingzhou could continue to be like it was when Liu Biao was in charge. Now Liu Biao doesn’t care. This is really not good for Jingzhou and the people of Jingzhou.
Everyone knows this truth, and there is no need to say it again, but Pang Tong just said it.
Later, he told Sima Hui that Bingzhou had no ambitions for Jingzhou, but only hoped that Jingzhou could elect a benevolent and wise master.
Pang Tong is not lying. No one in Bingzhou, including Su Yunqing, wants the person in charge of Jingzhou to be a useless idiot. After all, this person will be Su Yunqing's key support object in the next few years, and he and Liu Bei will be counted on. If it is a pig teammate with too low ability, then it is not Liu Bei but Su Yunqing himself who is cheating.
Of course, if you want to say that if the new owner of Bingzhou is too wise, wouldn't it be bad for Su Yunqing to go south in the future?
In fact, the reason is also simple, Liu Biao's sons are completely dwarf generals, and Liu Biao can't stop Su Yunqing from going south when Liu Biao is there, let alone they are not as good as Liu Biao.
What Su Yunqing wants is someone with a bit of brains, someone who won't drag teammates down. With her support, he can fight with Liu Bei. Look, the premise that Jingzhou can fight with Liu Bei is Su Yunqing's support. This aspect gave Su Yunqing time to slowly infiltrate Jingzhou, on the other hand, in fact, without Su Yunqing's support, Jingzhou wouldn't be able to play for long.
Because of such confidence and premise, Pang Tong kept pretending to be a white lotus in front of Sima Hui, as if he was thinking about Jingzhou. Of course, in fact, choosing a wise heir for Jingzhou is indeed true It's for Jingzhou's sake, you can't say that Pang Tong is hypocritical, this is his purpose.
Pang Tong is really good at cooking chicken soup and selling Amway, and even though his image is not very good, he has the essence of pretending to be a white lotus, so Sima Hui was soon persuaded by him.
Sima Hui thought for a while and asked, "Then I wonder which young master the Prime Minister likes more?"
Pang Tongtong smiled: "Both young masters are momentarily outstanding. The eldest son is benevolent and intelligent, while the second son is pure and kind. Whoever you choose is good."
Pang Tong didn't say who to choose, but the meaning in his words was already there.
The second son's innocence and kindness are naturally good, but such an evaluation is too bad for the lord of a state. In contrast, although the benevolent and intelligent evaluation of the eldest son Liu Qi is a panacea, it is not a bad word after all. At least not as a shortcoming. Compared with the two, how could Sima Hui not understand what Pang Tong meant?
But Sima Hui didn't say anything, because he himself had such a bias, and he also thought that the eldest son Liu Qi was better.
Don't talk about character, let's talk about family background. Liu Qi is both the eldest son and the first son. Compared with the other younger brothers, there is nothing worthy of criticism. Obviously, whether it is the eldest son's inheritance or the first son's inheritance, Liu Qi has been accounted for. Except, Liu Qi is not as good as Liu Qi Cong De Liu Biao likes this.
Regarding this, Sima Hui thought for a while and gave Pang Tong an idea, asking him to go to Huang Chengyan. Huang Chengyan is also a good friend of Sima Hui. He married a woman from the wealthy Cai family. He won the trust of Liu Biao and held the military power in Jingzhou.
On the other hand, Liu Biao's current wife, Cai Shi, Liu Biao also listens to her very much. Cai Shi is Cai Mao's second sister and the younger sister of Huang Chengyan's wife.
Sima Hui himself didn't care much about these things, so although he thought Liu Qi was good, he didn't intervene. At this time, Pang Tong wanted to support Liu Qi, so he simply gave such an idea.
The reason why Liu Cong can become Liu Qi's strong competitor is because Liu Cong is liked by Cai Shi, and Liu Biao listens to Cai Shi's, and it is inevitable that he will favor Liu Cong after listening too much.
As for Cai's support for Liu Cong, that's something Pang Tong needs to consider, and Sima Hui doesn't care.
Of course Pang Tong didn't feel that Sima Hui's move was irresponsible. Sima Hui had already pointed out the crux of the problem for him. .
So Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong tidied up and went to visit Huang Chengyan soon. This time, considering Pang Tong's image, Huang Chengyan and Pang Tong were not that familiar, so Zhuge Liang was the main one, and Pang Tong was only in the name of Sima Hui and Mr. Pang De. It's just a bridge.
This is enough, Zhuge Liang naturally has the ability to persuade Huang Chengyan, Huang Chengyan and Sima Hui are actually similar, they are not official, but they also care about world affairs, now Zhuge Liang is here to explain the truth to him, explaining the difference between Liu Qi and Liu Cong , and to a certain extent imply that if Liu Qi inherits, then the future Jingzhou must be as stable as Mount Tai, but if it is Liu Cong, we have to talk about it...
Still the same sentence, talking to smart people is very easy, Zhuge Liang is just a few hints that are not salty, Huang Chengyan has already understood the meaning, and Zhuge Liang has said a lot before, and said that in fact Sima Hui was also optimistic about Liu Qi, so Huang Chengyan was also shaken.
Once Huang Chengyan firmly supported Liu Qi, then as Huang Chengyan's wife, the eldest daughter of the Cai family should naturally influence the family.
And as long as Cai's internal opinions are inconsistent, the support they can provide to Liu Cong will be limited.
The next step is to deal with Cai Mao and Liu Biao. Both Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong know that Liu Biao's wife can be ignored, because the eldest sister's attitude is clear, and Cai Mao, who is the younger brother and in control of real power, has also made a statement. Liu Biao's wife has to follow suit. Change your attitude.
So after doing enough foreshadowing, Zhuge Liang got the opportunity to meet Liu Biao as an imperial envoy through his uncle's relationship.
Not long after, Su Yunqing received a letter from Pang Tong in Bingzhou, telling her that the matter in Jingzhou was almost settled.
In his letter, Pang Tong talked about a lot of things about them in Jingzhou. When he was there, he also mentioned Zhuge Liang. He will definitely not complain to Su Yunqing because of this, because he has gained love.
...yes, I got love.
Su Yunqing: "..."
Should it be said that it is Zhuge Liang?Work and love are right!
Thinking about it this way, Su Yunqing told Zhou Yu about this incident by the way, and said with a look of disgust: "Look at what level Kong Ming is, and then look at you, alas, I let you go when you were in a relationship before." It’s really worrying to be on leave for such a long time.”
Look at Zhuge Liang, who is working, and by the way, he fell in love.
Zhou Yu: "...my lord, I'm going to work overtime."
Isn't it just working overtime?Just add him! (╯‵口′)╯︵┻━┻
Su Yunqing was immediately satisfied: "It's not good to work overtime, but since Gongjin is so caring, I can't refuse. Come, Zhaoji, give Gongjin the pile of bamboo slips that Zhongde sent over earlier."
Zhou Yu: "..."
Why do I feel that my protagonist is becoming more and more unreliable_(:зゝ∠)_
