Zhuge Liang was also surprised that things had developed beyond his expectations and there was a possibility of losing control.

Wei Ba kept his door and thanked the guests, but Zhuge Liang knew that he had never thought about anything. The Wei family manor was next door to his house. His wife Huang Yueying met Mrs. Zhang every now and then. What happened to the Wei family was basically the same.

Mrs. Zhang handed over half of the control of the Wei family to Wei Ba, and therefore declined the invitation to pick mulberry and silkworms with Huang Yueying. This actually shows that the Wei family is going to go its own way and will not be the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Vasual. Mrs. Zhang said that this was because she handed over the management power to Wei Ba. Of course, it was just an excuse and didn't want to break up.

The Wei Family Manor and Zhuge Manor are close together. The water trucks that Wei Ba built in the manor can automatically transmit and clean mulberry leaves, of course, all fall into Huang Yueying's eyes. Huang Yueying himself is also skilled in machinery and is good at these things.

Not very surprised, but she knew very well that Wei Ba did this not only to reduce labor intensity and improve labor efficiency, but the manpower saved was not idle. The Wei family resumed the training of the martial arts masters, and it was even more powerful.

This shows that the Wei family must unswervingly follow the path of establishing their families with martial arts. Not only will it not give up military power, but it will instead seize more tightly.

Wei Ba gave up his military merits in exchange for the independent sale of 300 Shu brocades. Although he gave up his military merits, he did not want any less to divide the spoils, including more than 150 prisoners, including two.

It would be fine if Wang Shuang, the general of Wei captured by him, was just the courage of ordinary men. Zhuge Liang knew very well how good Jin Dongliu was. When he was in Hanzhong, he had contact with Jin Dongliu and had an average Wei family background.

Will be deeply impressed.

After Wei Ba brought these prisoners back, he quickly conquered these people with Xiahou Hui's identity, and then gave them the women of the fallen martial arts soldiers to let them live in the Wei family with peace of mind. Zhuge Liang saw all of Wei Ba's actions.

But he did not think that Wei Ba would be willing to be a housekeeper.

Wei Ba has always refused to take on the responsibility of fighting against the Eastern Wu. He expressed his resistance with silence, but at the same time he took all the benefits he promised him.

This made Zhuge Liang both satisfied and unhappy. What was satisfied was that Wei Ba did not make a fuss with him simply and directly, but instead made an orderly move, which initially showed his calmness and patience. Only such a person would be able to do so in the future

It is possible that he will achieve something in the court. What is unhappy is that Wei Ba's will is very firm, and there is obviously no possibility of compromise. In this way, his intentions cannot be realized at all.

Wei Ba asked Feng Jin and others to find a woman from a noble family suitable for Wei Feng, which is a signal. Wei Ba would rather solve Wei Feng's marriage problem by himself than bow to him. Once the Wei family really got married to the Yizhou family

, the civil and military disputes within the Jingxiang Group will be exposed to everyone. Zhuge Liang believes that those Yizhou families may look down on the Wei family, but for their own interests, they will not be reluctant to leave a woman. They will be very willing to turn Wei.

The family was pulled out from the Jingxiang Division.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Zhuge Liang.

"Hui Shu, what should I do if you say I should do?"

Zhang Wendai sat on the table, looking at the letter of request from the young generals of Shu army, and knew that Zhuge Liang could not bear the pressure. From Zhuge Liang's perspective, even if it was fighting on both sides, it was easier than the internal part of the Jingxiang Group.

He accepted it much. What's more, facing the pressure of Dongwu, his chances of winning are quite good. As long as he operates carefully, he can win again. In this case, if he is afraid to fight, he will inevitably be attacked by his political enemies.

Among the documents in front of him, Lai Min accused him without hesitation. Lai Min believes that depriving Wei Ba of his military achievements under Sun Quan's pressure was a manifestation of cowardice. Even if Wei Ba had the fact that he was betrayed the alliance, it would be

It's nothing, because before him, Sun Quan had already defected to the alliance. Before the Prime Minister's Northern Expedition, he had sent someone to form an alliance with Sun Quan. When our army was fighting fiercely in Guanzhong, Sun Quan not only did not help us, but instead held troops in Yiling. In his eyes,

Is there an alliance that has just been concluded? Since Sun Quan was the first to betray the alliance, why can't Wei Ba fight against the teeth? It is the teaching of the saint that Wei Ba does this naturally.

Lai Min is worthy of being a great Confucian Confucian moral standard. He selectively gave up the Confucian moral standard of repaying grievances with virtue, and instead used Confucius' direct grievances to excuse Wei Ba. This is what he said is the key point.

Sun Quan was indeed the first to betray the alliance. Before Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, he sent Deng Zhi to Wuchang to discuss the joint Northern Expedition with Sun Quan. The Shu army captured Guanzhong, and Sun Quan was the act of betraying the alliance for his own interests.

"What should the Prime Minister do?" Zhang Wen raised his head and looked at Zhuge Liang helplessly. Since Zhuge Liang asked him for advice, it means that he had no hope of success in his mission this time.

"Wei Ba, I can't punish him." Zhuge Liang said slowly: "I must reward him for his military merits, otherwise people will not accept it. As for the King of Wu, of course I don't want to go to war with him, but if he really wants to come,

Attack, I can only fight for one road, and there is no reason to retreat. Huishu, you should know that this battle is not good for both of us, and the only one who benefits in the end may be Wei. Can you persuade the King of Wu and let him

Calm down and don’t do such things as the enemy’s pain and the enemy’s happiness?”

"Does the Prime Minister think I have such influence?" Zhang Wen's bitter smile became even stronger. "The reason why I was able to go on a mission to Chengdu again is because Prime Minister Meng values ​​it, and I can complete the mission that others cannot complete. Now the mission cannot be completed,

What else do I have?”

Zhuge Liang smiled: "Hui Shu, don't be anxious. Think about it carefully and maybe you can come up with the best of both worlds."

Zhang Wen pondered without saying a word. However, Zhuge Liang's smile infected him and made his irritability diminished a lot. Since Zhuge Liang was so relaxed, he must have a solution, but he just refused to say it out, and he had to take it out of his mouth.

come out.

So what will Zhuge Liang do?

Zhang Wen frowned slightly, and suddenly had an idea and his eyes lit up. "Prime Minister, are you talking..."

"It's not me." Zhuge Liang shook his head and pointed at Zhang Wen: "Now I'm listening to you."

Zhang Wen smiled and did not bother with Zhuge Liang in these details: "Prime Minister, you can reward Wei Ba's military merits, but you can't agree to his marriage with Cao Wei. Then do you think this is OK? The Prime Minister will give him a marriage."

"Oh? What kind of marriage can be compared with Cao Wei's relatives?"

"In this world, except for the royal family of Shu Han, the only ones who can compare with Cao Wei, is of course our King of Wu." Zhang Wen approached Zhuge Liang a little and laughed in a low voice: "We King of Wu have three daughters, and now except for the middle-aged girl, we are married.

In addition to people, the eldest daughter Sun Luban's new widow and the young girl Sun Luyu has not yet been married, and they are all suitable candidates. Moreover, these two masters were born to Mrs. Bu, and their status is extraordinary, which is much more noble than Xiahou Shang's daughter.

.”

"Can the King of Wu be willing?"

"As long as the prime minister can give a heavy betrothal gift, I think the King of Wu will be willing to turn war into jade."

"What kind of betrothal gift is heavy enough?"

Zhang Wen smiled: "Prime Minister, don't go around in circles with me anymore. You should know what can touch the heart of my king and prevent him from being entangled in the prince's death."

Zhuge Liang stroked his beard and pondered silently. He knew, but he was not very willing. The technology of the warship is a weapon to restrain the Eastern Wu now and defeat the Eastern Wu in the future. How could he hand it over to Sun Quan so easily? Zhang Wen proposed

This plan is good, but the price is too high, exceeding his estimate.

Seeing Zhuge Liang silent, Zhang Wen knew that he had hit Zhuge Liang's point and couldn't help but smile: "Prime Minister, you think about it, but it should not be too long. The longer you wait, the deeper the hatred, and it may be harder to resolve."

Zhuge Liang glanced at Zhang Wen and snorted softly.

...

Fei Yi quickly walked into the west courtyard of Wei Mansion, stood under the corridor, looking at Wei Ba who was teaching children to read and read, smiling without saying a word.

Wei Ba put down the instruction stick in his hand, walked out quickly, and arched his hand from a distance and smiled, "Fei Jun, what wind has blown you?"

"Dongfeng." Fei Yi said with a smile: "How does it feel to be a sir?"

"fine."

"Is there anyone naughty?"

"Yes." Wei Ba smiled and said, "As long as you get lost, someone will always ask you some problems."

"Sir, it's hard to do." Fei Yi and Wei Ba walked side by side and talked happily: "What should you do when you encounter a naughty person?"

Wei Ba was stunned and heard something in Fei Yi's words. He smiled: "Touch him with emotion, and know him with reason."

"Yes, this is indeed the right way." Fei Yi asked again: "What if someone doesn't listen?"

"Then show it with power and hold it with law?"

Fei Yi turned his head and looked at Wei Ba who looked sincere but had a joking look, and laughed: "Okay, Wei Ziyu, I won't be playing a puzzle with you. No one wants to demonstrate to you. I'm here today, that's it

I'll inform you."

"What news is worth Fei Jun's personal trip?"

"Of course it's big news." Fei Yi looked around, and Wei Ba understood and led him sideways to the second floor of a small building in the backyard. Fei Yi entered the door and saw a mottled mouth on Lan Qi who was in the middle.

The sword of the battle. His eyes tightened: "Is this Guan Hou's sword of ten thousand enemies?"

"Yes." Wei Ba replied respectfully: "The elders dare not refuse, and I dare not use it myself, so I have to stay here for future generations to admire."

"Far from the Descendants?"

"Guan Hou is a general of Xiong Hu, and he is unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness. My Wei family is a martial artist. Since his father, he has taken Guan Hou as an example. Of course, we descendants are no exception." Wei Ba smiled faintly and said, "From now on,

The younger generation of the Wei family's martial soldiers will receive military tactics here before officially entering the battlefield. I believe that it will be of great benefit to their future for the loyal and righteous sages like Hou."

Fei Yi thought something and nodded, but his eyes were a little chilling. However, he quickly covered up this emotion, took his seat calmly, and said straight to the point: "Total of your military achievements in Guanzhong and Xiangyang, the Prime Minister is ready to do it for you.

Please be appointed as the Minister of State.”
