Baidi Chunshen

Applause.After Zhuge Liang listened to it once, he then calmly played the piano to make peace.The sound of the piano is as quiet and elegant as water, while Liu Bei's singing voice is full of passion and passion.The two are in harmony with each other, one is like flowing water, and the other is as towering as a mountain.In a moment, it seems to reproduce the tune of the ancient times, with the feeling of high mountains and flowing water.Not to mention that Boya and Ziqi were fishermen and woodcutters in the mountains and forests, but Liu Ge and his wife had the world in mind, and they were outstanding people at the time.Singing together, it is more vast and lofty, heroic, and it is soul-stirring.Those who will hear it will be fascinated.But listening to Zhuge Liang laughing and impromptu singing:

"Saving lives is in the ashes, razing everywhere. Making meritorious deeds in gold and stone, and returning home..."

The celebration banquet ended that night, and the two returned hand in hand.Walking in the barracks late at night, with the evening wind blowing, I feel very refreshed.Liu Bei then asked: "Kong Ming, when the solitary hegemony has been accomplished, do you want to learn from that ovary and return to the mountains and forests, looking for immortals and Taoism?"

Zhuge Liang nodded.Liu Bei was a little anxious, and grabbed his hand: "Don't you believe in Gu?"

"Although Liang is reluctant to part with the lord, he still loves the deep mountains and old forests, the wild cranes in the clouds."

Liu Bei laughed and said, "So, Gu will invite you to go boating on the Five Lakes!"

Zhuge Liang asked with a smile: "Throughout the ages, have monarchs and ministers retired together...?"

"Kong Ming, since there is no precedent, let's be that pair that has never been seen before, and who will never come again!"

"What if the world changes?"

"Then let's be like no one before, and no one to come after." Liu Bei vowed: "No matter if the world falls, Liu Bei swears to live up to the promise he made with you today."

Zhuge Liang smiled: "The heavens and the earth will be overwhelmed, and Liang will always be the king's minister."

Then Zhuge Liang deduced the eight formations, and named them the first two formations.

18. Hometown

When Zhuge Liang came, Fan A was sitting under the shade of a tree decocting medicine, and he picked up a fallen leaf beside the medicine stove.He raised his head by chance, and saw the young prime minister walking down the narrow path in the afternoon sun, wearing flowers and brushing the shade.He was tall and tall, and his clothes were slightly raised. Although his pace was slightly hurried, it still made people feel clear and solemn.

Fan Ah stood up and bowed in salute.Zhuge Liang quickly came to help him: "Don't do this according to the imperial doctor's order, it's really bright."

Although the words were serious, they were spoken in Xuzhou dialect.

Fan A raised his head to look at him, and replied with a smile in his accent, "Prime Minister."

However, the eyes of the old man are full of the loving expression of the old man looking at the child.He studied under Hua Tuo and learned the method of health preservation, so even though he is over a hundred years old and his beard and hair are white, his body is still healthy, like a middle-aged person.Zhuge Liang is about the same age as his grandson.

Back then in Xuzhou, he hugged the handsome child named A Liang and stroked his feverish forehead.Now this child is the prime minister of the Han Dynasty standing in front of him.

Later, Cao Cao slaughtered Fan A's hometown Pengcheng, and killed his mentor Hua Tuo.Therefore, he hated Cao Wei to the bone, and rushed to Shu to avenge him.Seeing him coming, Zhuge Liang went out of the mansion to meet him personally, holding his hand, his face was full of joy, and there were still tears in his eyes.As soon as the two met, they immediately started talking in their local dialect.Liu Bei also said with a smile, don't think that Gu can't understand.I also stayed in Xuzhou for a few years alone.

Old people who forget the years meet each other, just look at each other and smile, and everything is said.Under the shade of the tree, the two talked about Liu Bei's condition in the local dialect.The two medicine boys next to them are both from Shu, so you can only look at me and I look at you, and then they look at the prime minister and the imperial physician who have never spoken the Xuzhou dialect together, spit out a series of fluent and cadenced language.They didn't understand what the prime minister and the imperial physician were talking about, they saw that the tone of the two slowly softened as they talked.The prime minister's expression was serious at first, then resolute, and his sentences were calm and sonorous, like inquiries.The imperial physician also explained to him slowly and patiently.

The two children have heard that the prime minister is knowledgeable and talented, and besides governing the country and the army, he has dabbled in military and chariot battles, farming and water conservancy, and even piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. He is really a genius in the world .Even the way of keeping in good health can be called extremely proficient.Could it be that at this time, he was actually debating medical principles with the imperial physician order.

However, in the end, the silence between the Prime Minister's words became longer and longer, and finally he was speechless, with a sad expression on his face.However, in just a moment, the majestic and strong prime minister suppressed all the emotions in his eyes, and gave another deep bow to the imperial physician order.

Fan A respectfully returned the gift.Turning to the official language used on weekdays: "Prime Minister, you are busy with state affairs these days, you don't have a good diet, and you don't sleep for two hours at night?"

Zhuge Liang was startled and nodded.

Fan Ah bowed again: "Your Majesty's dragon body is not safe now. The Prime Minister is important to the country, and it is better to take care of yourself."

Zhuge Liang also saluted deeply: "Thank you for the imperial physician's order. Liang understands." He asked again: "When will Your Majesty wake up?"

Fan A bowed and said: "Your Majesty will wake up after taking a short nap after using up the decoction."

Zhuge Liang nodded, then continued to walk into the depths of the forest.Fan A watched his back for a long time, then Fang sighed lightly.

19. Plan will be released

When Liu Bei woke up, what he saw was this scene: his prime minister was sitting at a stone table under a tree, between the bamboo slips and writing papers, taking a nap because of his exhaustion.I haven't seen him for many years, Zhuge Liang is still handsome and tall, but he has lost weight.There are also a few strands of frost on the temples.The fallen flowers floated on his forehead and wide sleeves, lingered for a moment, and finally slipped to the ground.Only a yellow-spotted butterfly landed on his shoulder, flapping its wings again and again, refusing to leave for a long time.

Liu Bei couldn't bear to disturb him, so he looked at Zhuge Liang and remained silent.However, after lying down for a long time, his back felt slightly stiff, but Zhuge Liang noticed it when he moved his body a little, and raised his head to look at him with joy on his face.

"You finally woke up," Liu Bei sighed with a smile, "I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Zhuge Liang was stunned.Because this was the first sentence Liu Bei said to him when they first met in Longzhong.

However, time has changed and things have changed, the same scene, on the same sunny spring day, when the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, he said that his heart is no longer the simple joy of the past.The overwhelming sadness far outweighed the joy, and I burst into tears without knowing it.

But Liu Bei said the second sentence: "Why did the prime minister reduce the number? He ignored my advice again."

Zhuge Liang couldn't bear it any longer, tears poured down like rain, and kowtowed to the ground: "My minister Zhuge Liang, I pray for Your Majesty's peace."

The emperor stared at the prime minister who prostrated himself on the ground, and he had already shed tears. He ordered his attendants to help Zhuge Liang and sit on the side of the couch.He raised his sleeve to wipe away Zhuge Liang's tears, and said softly: "Did you ever wish for a moment that you were assisting Emperor Gao or Emperor Guangwu? Xiang Yu and Gongsun Shu will wear you down forever."

"Your Majesty and I have known each other for a long time, but we can no longer understand each other." Zhuge Liang felt cold in his heart, and said coldly: "Your Majesty is arrogantly belittling himself, and this statement also chills my heart."

"I'm joking." Liu Bei laughed.

"The emperor has no jokes."

"You... why are you not as good as Prime Minister Xiao?" Liu Bei said with a hint of disgust in his tone: "Gaozu has tested him many times. Is he angry?! I will test you a little today, and you will be angry!"

"I'm guilty of death." Zhuge Liang said with a smile, "I'm not as good as Prime Minister Xiao."

"It's self-knowledge." Liu Bei also laughed and said, "Kong Ming, you are not as good as Xiao He, because Prime Minister Xiao always puts the world in his heart. But you, you put me in your heart too much, and you can't see the general trend of the world. As a prime minister, Made the same mistake as the emperor! Still don't know how to repent."

"...Your Majesty, please punish the crime of the minister."

"Also," Liu Bei said lightly, "Xiao He knows how to figure out Gaozu's mind. You don't understand. On the other hand, I don't understand you. You are really bold. A courtier should be so careless. You will believe what I say and refuse Think more?"

"..." Zhuge Liang smiled and held Liu Bei's hand: "I have already thought about it. Let's follow the example of Xiao Xiangguo, stealing his own heart, and saving the belly of the king: Your Majesty regrets, but does not regret. Your Majesty does not regret sending troops to the east. I only repent of my negligence, and my negligence in the formation."

Liu Bei nodded slightly: "What do you regret?"

Zhuge Liang said: "I don't regret supporting your Majesty's eastward journey. However, after several months of thinking, the strategy of Longzhong is to occupy Jingzhou and Yizhou, and attack the Central Plains together. I never thought that Jingzhou is located in the Central Plains. It is very easy to be invaded by the two countries. However, Yizhou is located in a remote place, and the rescue is not enough. It is actually impossible to occupy Jingzhou and Yizhou at the same time... The loss of Jingzhou and the death of General Guan are hard to say goodbye to. Blame it." He said, shaking his head and sighing with a smile: "I really can't see the general trend of the world."

Liu Bei was silent for a moment, and said: "What Kong Ming said made some sense. However, at that time the north was already occupied by Cao Cao, and the east of the river was the land of Sun Wu. I only have Jingzhou and Yizhou to attack, and there is no other way. The Prime Minister answered me: How strong was the Wei State during the Warring States period? When it weakened, what did Zhang Yi say to intimidate King Ai of Wei?"

Zhuge Liang said softly: "This is my negligence. I should plead guilty before Your Majesty. Why did Your Majesty defend Liang instead?"

"Prime Minister, answer me."

Zhuge Liang bowed slightly, and replied: "The Three Jins are located in the Central Plains. When Wei Zhi was strong, he bullied the surrounding countries. Because it is located in a land extending in all directions, it is convenient to attack any country. South Korea and Chu, Take Yanzhao in the north, disturb Qi in the east, and attack Qin in the west. However, since the rise of Qin and the weakening of Wei, Zhang Yi said that the king of Wei, with the weakness of Wei, would attack the surrounding countries if he did not attach himself to Qin. The country's terrain is not dangerous to defend, and it is regarded as a fragmented land, which will inevitably be divided up by various countries."

"That's right, isn't the terrain of Wei the same as that of Jingzhou?" Liu Bei said, "If the Lord can strengthen it, it will extend in all directions and be used for military power. It can become the world's hegemony. If the Lord does not use it well, it will be torn apart and people will be divided. The inability to defend Jingzhou is the fault of Yun Chang. How can you blame you? Besides, if Lu Zijing is still alive, how could Sun Quan'an be ignorant of current affairs and attack and kill Yun Chang? If it wasn't for my inability to use troops, I would not listen to the prime minister and his son. At the beginning, An Neng had such a defeat? The prime minister blamed himself for this
