Wei Ba gently placed the letter on the table, rubbed his fingers on his chin, and pondered without saying a word. />

Fei Yi looked at Wei Ba nervously, his palms were covered in sweat. He didn't know if Zhuge Liang's long letter could play the role he deserved, at least in his opinion, a little lingering. Zhuge Liang refused to let Wei Ba switch to Xiangyang and insisted on letting Wei

Compared with the previous decision, the tyrant is not required to return to Chengdu, but to be stationed in Jingzhou.

Wei Ba refused last time. Will he agree this time? Fei Yi was not sure. Zhuge Liang also wrote him another letter explaining the general content in the letter and asking him to do everything possible to appease Wei Ba.

He asked him to accept the order. But Fei Yi was not sure at all. In his opinion, Wei Ba now has enough strength to not obey Zhuge Liang's orders.

Fei Yi looked at Wei Ba's mouth, afraid that he would hear a word of no word. He knew very well that he could not control Wei Ba. If Wei Ba refused to accept it, all Zhuge Liang's arrangements would be nothing, and in the end it would be a joke.

Li Yan and others should be happy to see this result.

"Fei Jun..." Wei Ba owed, coughed, and woke Fei Yi up from his random thoughts. Fei Yi was shocked and his heart suddenly rose. He held his breath and looked at him intently.

Wei Ba.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Wei Ba touched his face suspiciously and asked unconfidently: "Is there something on my face?"

"No... nothing." Fei Yi couldn't help but feel ashamed. There weren't many times when he was so nervous in his life. "You said, I'll listen."

"This... this, I understand the meaning of the Prime Minister." Wei Ba dipped the letter on the case, thinking that if this letter had the opportunity to be included in Zhuge Liang's collection of essays, there would probably be another strange article in the history of Chinese prose.

, it will not be inferior to "The Memorial of the Army". I don't know how much effort the Prime Minister has spent to write it. "I think the Prime Minister makes sense. From the perspective of state affairs, it is indeed better for me to stay in Jiangnan than to go to Xiangyang."

"Hu——" Fei Yi's heart fell to the ground and breathed a long sigh.

Wei Ba looked at Fei Yi in surprise and asked with concern: "Fei Jun, what's wrong with you? You feel uncomfortable? Are you too tired of negotiations?"

Fei Yi shook his head and laughed: "Ziyu, don't pretend to be like me, you know what I'm worried about."

Wei Ba also laughed and pointed at Fei Yi with his fingers: "You, you must have sued me for complaints behind my back, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Fei Yi didn't mind, "Ziyu, you can understand the Prime Minister's painstaking efforts. I am very happy. I believe that the Prime Minister will be very satisfied with this news."

"You're too worried." Wei Ba stood up, waved his arms, and his joints made a giggle. "I know, the Prime Minister must be dissatisfied with me last time I didn't go back to Chengdu. Maybe someone else said behind my back that I was not rude.

Actually, I just have my own ideas. I hope to do better. Okay, now I can transport the rice from Jiaozhou through the Xiang River to Linxiang. Next, can I successfully enter the Han River?

Guanzhong depends on your ability.”

Fei Yi nodded, he was more confident about this. He knew very well what Sun Quan was in now, as long as Wei Ba was willing to truce between the two sides. Sun Quan would definitely not take the initiative to provoke a war. It was not a big deal to convince Sun Quan that the grain ships of Shu Han passed through the Han River.

question.

"What about you?"

"I want to go back to Chengdu." Wei Ba looked at the bright sunshine and suddenly looked a little dazed. "I have been away from Chengdu for more than a year and want to go home and take a look."

Fei Yi was surprised: "What can you do? Who will preside over the military and political affairs after you leave?"

"You." Wei Ba said carelessly: "Or, please arrange another person for me. I want to go home and have a look."

"Nonsense." Fei Yi couldn't help but scold: "With Liao Li in Jiaozhou, maybe it's not a big problem, but who else can control the tens of thousands of troops here besides you? Could it be that the Prime Minister or your father can control it?

Come?"

"What should I do?" Wei Ba spread his hands in distress. "I want to go home. I haven't been home for more than a year. I marry my wife, and it was my sister who worshipped me. Now that the war is over, I want to go back.

It’s not too much to see your family.”

Fei Yi smiled bitterly, and he understood what Wei Ba meant. This was the price of Wei Ba accepting Zhuge Liang's orders.

"According to the national legal system, it is impossible for a 2,000-stone official like you to leave hostages in Chengdu. However, considering your special circumstances, I can write to the Prime Minister and let your family accompany you. However, you must stop at the right time and not

It makes it impossible for the Prime Minister to do it.”

Wei Ba blinked: "Fei Jun, you are so understanding."

"You, you can't say anything between you and me, you have to go around in a big circle." Fei Yi was amused and crying: "I'll talk about this matter. What will happen in the end? The Prime Minister will decide. I will try my best to help you fight for it.

Yes. Ziyu, let’s talk about what’s happening in front of you first. How do you plan to divide Jingzhou?"

"Of course you go and talk about this matter. If you want to ask me for my opinion, I wish I could even take down Wujun." Wei Ba sat down again and put away his unruly smile: "The most urgent task is to ensure the war in Guanzhong. I

To fight Lu Xun, it is also for this purpose. Sun Quan will not be honest if he does not defeat Lu Xun."

Fei Yi nodded. He deeply felt this. After Lu Xun's defeat, Sun Quan and the entire Wu Kingdom were greatly shocked, and the situation where Han and Wu were at a disadvantage in the negotiations was gone. It is precisely because of this,

Only then did he be sure to let Sun Quan agree to transport grain ships through the Han River.

"You are better than me in negotiations, so I won't interrupt much." Wei Ba continued: "However, considering that Sun Quan is a man who is tough and not soft, I hope that he can rely on each other in negotiations.

Fei Jun, you can do good people, and I can do bad people, how about it?"

Fei Yi was shocked and shook his head quickly and said, "Ziyu, you can't take risks. When you see you, Sun Quan might do something crazy."

"Of course I won't go. Wei Xing will say what I want to say."

"Wei Xing, it's indeed a suitable candidate." Fei Yi breathed a sigh of relief and accepted Wei Ba's suggestion. Judging from the several contacts with the Wu people, Wei Xing had the ability to be an envoy, and he had come forward, Sun Quan

I believe that I could feel greater pressure, which would be helpful to his work. Of course, if Wei Xing is to attend the negotiations, Shu Han would give Wei Xing a corresponding official position. This is also the real intention of Wei Ba.

Qu's position as a position of at least a Langguan or above is not a low requirement. However, considering Wei Ba's current contributions and concessions, this requirement is really nothing, and Fei Yi is confident that he can obtain Zhuge Liang's consent.

After discussing the specific details with Wei Ba, Fei Yi left with satisfaction. He wrote a letter as fast as possible, asking the fast horse to send it to Zhuge Liang. Wei Ba accepted Zhuge Liang's arrangement and agreed to stay in Jingzhou.

Not going north. This is a surprise, a surprise that is only inferior to Linhe's victory. This is enough to show that their concerns about Wei Ba are a bit redundant. Although Wei Ba is not very docile, he still has the measure of taking the overall situation into consideration.

Fei Yi and Wei Xing rushed back to Linxiang. They held an emergency consultation with Zhuge Jin and Zhang Wen, who were ordered to come for negotiations, and soon reached an agreement. The two sides re-divided the south of the Yangtze River, took the Xiang River as the boundary, and returned to Sun Wu to the east of the Xiang River.

, the Xiang River returned to Shu Han to the west, basically restored the pattern of re-dividing Jingzhou in the 20th year of Jian'an. The only difference is that under Lu Xun's insistence, Eastern Wu retained Yiyang west of the Xiang River. In exchange, all areas south of Linxiang

It was also classified as Shu Han, and it was allowed to use waterways within the Wu Kingdom for transportation.

These places have actually been controlled by Wei Ba, and Wu could not take them back at all. Lu Xun used these places to exchange for control of Yiyang and prepared for future counterattacks. Both sides knew that dividing Jingzhou now was just a wise move.

The Wu Kingdom needed time to dispatch troops and stabilize the court. Shu Han also needed to end the war in Jingzhou as soon as possible and support the battlefield in Guanzhong. No one wanted to fight again.

After the draft agreement was agreed, Wei Ba was invited to Linxiang and met Zhuge Jin and Lu Xun. At the banquet, Lu Xun was silent, and Wei Ba did not take the initiative to drink with him. On the contrary, Zhuge Ke and Zhuge Rong brothers were very

Active, he frequently stood up to toast Wei Ba. Lu Lan saw it and was very annoyed. He got off the table and walked to Wei Ba, holding his wine glass with both hands and a smirk.

"General Wei, can I ask you a question?"

When Xiahou Xuan saw it, he frowned and was answering in front of Wei Ba. Wei Ba winked at him, shook his head, and signaled him not to be nervous. Wei Ba turned his head, nodded to Lu Lan, and smiled and said:

I dare not take it for advice. My knowledge is not good, so don’t make things difficult for me on purpose.”

Lu Lan smiled: "I heard that the general asked the great scholar Liu Beihai to serve as the great priest of Jiaozhou Academy and praised Mencius. I believe he had some research on Mencius's theories. Then let's discuss Mencius's knowledge. I believe the general will not refuse."

Wei Ba pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Actually, although I admire Mencius, I don't know much about his knowledge, but it's just a few famous sayings. However, sometimes the rumor of a long and complicated truth may not be as simple as a few words.

Incisive, do you think it is?"

Lu Lan smiled slightly: "Then I want to ask for advice. Which of the general thinks Mencius's words is the most inspiring."

"It's the most inspiring, of course, it's 'Your regards the people as grass, and the people regards the king as enemies'." Wei Ba said seriously: "If you have kindness, you will take revenge, and if you have grudges, you will take revenge, and go straight to the right. This is the true nature of a real man. If you repay kindness, you will repay grudges with hatred.

, or recognize the thief as his father, that would be too unbearable. Lu Jun, do you think so?"

Lu Lan was speechless and her face turned red. Lu Xun, who had been lowering her head but pricking her ears to listen, shook his hand, and the wine in the glass sprinkled on her body, and her face turned pale.

When Fei Yi saw this, he quickly got up and smoothed out. "Ziyu, you have too much wine."

Wei Ba smiled slightly: "What Mr. Fei said is very good. Today we turned war into jade and silk, and we were happy. We drank two more cups at once. Please don't blame the rudeness. Come on, let's clear our grudges with each other with a smile, let's go together

Raise your glass and cheer for the Han Wumeng!"

Lu Xun slowly stood up and came to Wei Ba. After looking at Wei Ba for a while, he raised his wine glass, nodded and smiled miserably: "Mr. Wei, thank you for your teachings. If there is a future, I will definitely repay you."

After saying that, he raised his neck, drank it all, threw the cup to the ground, and left with a wild laugh.
