After the discussion in the palace, Zhuge Hui was not in a hurry to return to the state and city official offices outside Taicheng, and temporarily stayed in Taicheng to facilitate communication later.

When he returned to the official office in Taicheng, he saw his son Zhuge Zheng standing anxiously waiting by the door of the official office, and his face suddenly sank.

"Father, I heard about Yu ......"

Zhuge Yu hurriedly greeted him, his tone was quite cramped, but Zhuge Hui snorted coldly after hearing this, pointed at his son and reprimanded: "What is your position in the stage?" Who gave you permission to enter the cardinal's land? ”

After hearing this, Zhuge Yu froze in place, and the faces of the two subordinate officials of Zhuge Hui Mansion behind him suddenly became embarrassed and panicked.

"I—I'm ...... Huainan and his party, Shen Weizhou discredited me. I—I'm also worried about the north...... The atrocities of the Huainan soldiers were above Hefei, and the children returned to the capital from their places, but they thought that if the princes had detailed inquiries, they rushed into the stage to ask. ”

Zhuge snorted, and when he saw that his father's face became more displeased, he was busy changing his words.

After Zhuge Hui heard this, the anger on his face was still not restrained, and he just snorted coldly: "This matter has not yet been decided by Taiwan Province, how can you be allowed to be humble and beaked." ”

After that, he went straight to the official office, but he did not immediately drive Zhuge Cheng out of Taicheng.

Zhuge stayed in place for a while, not knowing whether to leave or stay, until the attaché behind Zhuge Hui looked at him, and then cautiously followed in.

Zhuge Hui sat down in the office, and when he saw his son standing under the corridor and was timid, he was even more angry. He didn't know what to say about this son at this time, and he knew earlier that his son was mediocre and ordinary, so he didn't have any hope. But in previous years, at least they knew how to be cautious and clumsy, and did not make mistakes.

However, as the family gradually became prosperous, this son's temperament turned rash and impetuous. Zhuge Hui originally thought that although his son was not capable, and he was far from being Shen Weizhou's opponent, he would not make any mistakes just by accompanying the King of Huainan on a trip. But it's such a simple errand, and it's all a mess!

The king of Huainan did not have any specific goal in his own right, just to test the attitude of Shen Weizhou and the entire Governor's Office towards the Jiangdong court, otherwise he would not only go there in a private capacity.

Shen Weizhou's big victory in the Central Plains is really jubilant in the United States, and the sea is congratulating, but its momentum is difficult to contain, and it also makes the Taiwan assistants vigilant. But this point of caution, there is no actual evidence to prove, at least so far, Shen Weizhou and his people are still the example of diligent kings.

Therefore, the vigilance of the Taiwan assistants is one thing, if this vigilance is really transformed into real action clamping, with Shen Weizhou's current reputation and fame, the Taiwan assistants will inevitably bear the notoriety of being jealous and jealous of the virtuous and suppressing the heroes.

Not to mention the resistance that may be encountered in Taicheng itself, the condemnation in the countryside alone is unbearable. Once the situation is out of control, Yu Liang, who is stubborn and self-serving, will be their end. And the disaster provoked will be much more serious than Su Jun's disaster, in the current situation of Jin Zuo, how dare the Taifu people corrupt this situation in their own hands.

Therefore, they sent the king of Huainan, if the king of Huainan was cold all the way and was ostracized, then after returning to Taicheng, Shen Weizhou and his arrogant posture of seizing power would have nothing to hide, at least the queen mother and the ministers in Taiwan could reach a consensus to impose certain restrictions on Shen Weizhou.

However, if Shen Weizhou deliberately caters to it, when he contacts with Huainan and other ministers, he can also figure out some of the personnel structures within the Governor's Mansion, and he will no longer be completely unable to intervene in the stage as he is now.

The result was good, Zhuge and his entourage made their own opinions, and they pouted up and down Huainan, not knowing that Taifu would be ridiculed with his intentions, and he also allowed Shen Weizhou to take advantage of the situation to collect a large amount of private capital, and even the position of the king of Huainan himself became unpredictable because of this trip.

Therefore, Zhuge Hui really regretted his private thoughts for a while, and let his son serve as an important subordinate of King Huainan, originally thinking that he could use this to contact and strengthen his friendship, but he ignored that King Huainan was the most noble king at the moment, and his position was already conspicuous and complicated, which was far from being something that Zhuge could handle.

"Come in."

Zhuge Hui was silent for a moment and then beckoned to his son, and when Zhuge entered cautiously, he said: "Huainan and his party, you are also vigilant. If the talent is insufficient, even if it is forced, it will harm you. In this way, you have been staying at home for the last few days to meditate on yourself. Until next year, he will go to any ministry in Wu County and try to keep it for the time being. ”

"What? Let me go and pick up Wang Xiuling's relics? ”

After Zhuge heard this, he couldn't help but exclaim, his face was full of disbelief, he didn't expect his father to punish him so harshly this time, not only drove him away from the Huainan Palace, but also kicked him to Wu County.

It would be better to replace Wang Huzhi as the Taishou, but his father's intention was clearly to make him more humble, and it was a temporary appointment for the trial guard. In other words, if he still doesn't do well, he will most likely be directly beaten into white!

Zhuge Yu was also indignant and resentful at this time, and after a moment of silence, he said astringently: "My son knows that his talents are inferior and difficult to use, and Huainan and his party not only failed to fulfill their duties, but also tired of the estrangement of the relatives of the king of Huainan, and did not dare to force his father to forgive." But now that I am a laughing stock in Chengdu, I would rather close my door and pray for the fortune of my family and the country, rather than use it for Wang Xiuling's late advancement, otherwise what face will I have in this world! ”

When Zhuge Hui heard this, he almost couldn't help but grab the Ruyi head on the case and smash it at his son, although he couldn't bear it, he was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while.

In the current situation, although the visit of King Huainan did not bear fruit, the incident in Hefei also made the whole province realize that Huainan is now almost uncontrollable. Although because of Huainan's overreaction, Taicheng was unable to parry, so he could only tolerate it temporarily.

But those who are knowledgeable in the world can also see that if Jin Zuo is in peace for a long time, he can no longer chase after the threat of Yu Bian Gong and ignore Fang Zhen's weight. Shen Weizhou has both the strength of Wang Dun in the early years and the strength of Su Jun, if the situation is allowed to develop for a long time, Taicheng can only beg for forbearance and is helpless, it is already a country general.

At present, what can still restrain its people is the people's and material resources that Jiangdong has, and Sanwu, where Jiangdong's essence is located, is the top priority. Now that Wu will have long since merged, Taichung can still fight for Wu County at the moment. Once a tacit understanding is reached with the Wujun family, it can not only make up for the lack of Taiwan, but also make a little check and balance on Wuxing and Huiji's goods to the north, so as to maintain the awe of Taicheng.

Therefore, Zhuge Hui's arrangement for his son is admittedly a punishment of disappointment, and he also hopes that his son can avoid the whirlpool of Taicheng and accumulate meritorious work in the local government with peace of mind. He himself has to use it because of this, and his protégés also have more talents in this area, and the county of Sano Prefecture is reluctant, but if he uses the county and township, he may not be able to follow the reputation of the official.

As a result, this stupid thing is still thinking about the problem of face, and would rather sit idle at home than be Wang Huzhi's subordinate, and he can't understand his hard work at all!

"Since that's what you think, go home."

After being silent for a long time, Zhuge Hui's anger just turned into full of helplessness, he still had the matter of Hefei in his heart, and he really didn't have the energy to work hard for this inferior son, so he waved his hand and said.

Hearing his father say this, Zhuge Zhi's heart suddenly cooled half, now the king is doing a good job, everyone is vying for progress, although he is not talented, but he also wants to make a difference, otherwise he will not be so keen on making things in Huainan. I just said that I was just angry, but I didn't expect that my father seemed to be planning to give up on himself completely.

Zhuge Cheng himself is already in his old age, and he can't pull his face to cry miserably in front of his father, not to mention that he is also quite resentful at the moment: "The son is dull and difficult to teach, he lives up to his father's high expectations, he knows that he is guilty, and he doesn't dare to beg for mercy." But the person who tired my reputation this time is Shen Weizhou, a raccoon dog slave maniac. ”

"My son was humiliated in Huainan, but also because he was bent on investigating the crime of this madman for the sake of the society, because he couldn't succeed because of his treachery. Now Hefei is shocked, it can be said that this thief is arrogant and uncontrollable, exposing his evil. If Taichung still forbears and indulges in evil because of its old honors, then the national law and etiquette will be gone! Now that the child is a despicable person in the world, he is willing to impeach this thief with his life and commit adultery for the country! ”

When Zhuge Hui heard this, the whole person suddenly froze, and then he was furious, and the Ruyi slashing hand that had been rubbing at hand smashed out.

Zhuge Yu only felt that the wind suddenly hit, looked up, and the Ruyi suddenly hit the corner of his forehead, screamed, fell on his back, and his forehead was already hot and painful.

Ruyi fell to the ground with a crisp breaking sound, and the officials and guards on duty outside the door immediately poured into the room, and when they saw the current scene, they were all stunned on the spot.

Zhuge Hui was still so angry that he couldn't calm down at this moment, his chest rose and fell violently, but seeing that outsiders were present, it was difficult to say anything. He stepped forward and grabbed his son's shirt and reprimanded in a low voice: "If you say more than half a word, both father and son will be thrown into deep prison to die in the future!" ”

Zhuge was completely panicked, and he didn't dare to do anything more, but struggled to get up and kowtowed again and again.

Seeing this, those subordinate officials and guards felt even more embarrassed, and hurriedly withdrew. They didn't hear the father-son dispute clearly just now, but they also knew that Zhuge was wrong in his previous ministry, and when they saw the tragic situation of the bloody stream, they could only sigh that his family style was really serious, and Zhuge Hui lacked elegance and tolerance in treating the education of his children.

Zhuge Hui closed his eyes and took a deep breath, even more disgusted with his son's kowtowing and crying appearance, and even faintly regretted that he had been too obsessed with the power struggle in Taiwan Province in the past few years, which made the family style very different from previous years. But the most important thing at the moment is that this son, who is still ignorant and ignorant, can no longer stay in the center of this turmoil in the capital.

He originally planned to personally take Zhuge Ying home, and then send him back to Langya Township overnight, but when he was leaving, Liu Shaozheng in the imperial history was in front of the official office, presumably to discuss Hefei affairs, so he could only call his confidants and family members to advise: "Escort this inferior son out of the city, send him back to the township, be grounded in the house, and must not be released!" ”

The family respectfully accepted the order, and then led Zhuge Cheng, who was still a little depressed, to leave Taicheng in a hurry.

More than an hour later, Zhuge was supervised by his family to arrive at the Dunan Wharf, and his panic had gradually calmed down, but the fear born of his father's reaction was difficult to eliminate for a long time.

At this time, the night was already dark, and the lights on the Dunan Wharf were still bright, Zhuge looked around, and sighed suddenly, knowing that he had returned to his hometown this time, although he was still close to the bustling capital, but it was difficult to cross this distance again.

He was about to board the ship when suddenly there were nearly 100 slaves on the other side of the pier with sticks and cars driving towards the pier. After a little inquiry, I found out that it was Wang Yunzhi of the Langya Wang clan who was also preparing to leave the capital at night.

"Wang Shenyou and I are both prosperous and frustrated and lonely in this world, and we meet by chance on a cold night, so we don't have to be lonely on this return trip."

With that, he asked his family to leave the dock and wait on the side. Although the family remembered the advice of the lord, it was not good to disobey Lang Jun's will in such a trivial matter, so they did as he said.
