After Zhuge Liang received this information, he privately counted it and came up with an astonishing number.

This time, the total loss of the Xiliang Army in the Hebei battlefield was as many as 250,000 people, of which sixty percent were soldiers and horses of the main battle camp of the Xiliang Army, and forty percent were county soldiers.

In addition, after the end of the Hebei War, except for Bohai County, which was temporarily under the control of the Xiliang Army, the three prefectures of Qingzhou, Yanzhou and Jizhou all fell into the hands of Cao Cao.

And these defeats were intercepted by Zhuge Liang, he was worried that Li Li, who was already physically and mentally exhausted at the moment, would not be able to bear such huge casualties of soldiers and horses, fearing that such a heavy loss would crush Li Li's body, so that he was exhausted, worried, and suddenly fell ill. After Zhuge Liang thought about it carefully, he resolutely decided to conceal it for the time being, and wait for Li Lihui to come over later.

However, although he did not mention the war report, it did not mean that Li Li did not know about it.

As everyone knows, every battle report presented to Li Li will be delivered to Li Zhi as soon as possible, and Li Zhi will not hide anything from Li Li. If it weren't for Li Zhi deliberately stopping these reports of defeat and instructing his own soldiers to send them to Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang was afraid that he would not be able to contact these military information at all.

Despite this, Li Zhi would still report to Li Li that the soldiers and horses from all walks of life had sent back the news, but he did not say a word about the content of the news. Since then, Li Li naturally knew that all the soldiers and horses on the battlefield in Hebei had lost the battle and suffered heavy losses. But Li Zhi insisted on not saying it, and he didn't ask much, after all, he was mentally prepared for this. It's not a good thing to not know the specific casualties for the time being, otherwise many defeats will be presented in front of him. He himself was worried about whether he would be able to withstand such a huge pressure this time.

Although Li Li has long been accustomed to life and death, he has never experienced such heavy casualties and losses. Seeing that the soldiers who followed him in the past died tragically on the battlefield one by one, how could he turn a blind eye. How can you not be sad and sad? Although he once thought that his heart was like a rock, cold and iron-blooded, but when this qiē was really placed in front of him, he suddenly realized that he was also flesh and blood, and he also had feelings, joys, angers, sorrows, sorrows, and fears, just like ordinary people.

So he didn't want to know the specific battle situation at the moment. Even so, he was still depressed and sad. Burnout.

That night, Li Li was drunk, very drunk, and fell drunk on the main hall. It was Zhuge Liang and Li Zhi who carried him to the backyard bedroom. and told Lu Lingqi, who came to Bingzhou with Zhuge Liang, to serve Li Li and sleep.

The next morning, there was chaos in the backyard. All the generals and subordinates of the county government who had followed Li Li to the Shangdang County Guard Mansion were waiting outside the door, anxious, and from time to time there were grumpy generals who held the medical officer's neck and whispered angrily, as if they wanted to dismantle him.

This qiē was only because Li Li fell ill.

Since he fell asleep last night, Li Li, who was drunk, was hot and cold, and Zhuge Liang, who was so anxious to hear the news, summoned dozens of medical officers and Lang Zhong to come for treatment overnight, but it had no effect at all. As a last resort. Li Zhi sent a message to Chang'an overnight, ordering the divine doctors Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji to hurry to the party. Meanwhile. Li Zhi and Huan Fei and other generals each led a team of men and horses out of the city early in the morning and went separately to pick them up, hoping to pick up the two divine doctors to treat their own lords.

After the rain, the courtyard is clean, with carefully groomed bonsai and green trees standing on two plates, the pillars under the porch polished and the stone steps specially washed clean. It is no exaggeration to say that because Li Li lived in the backyard, the Shangdang county guard and his subordinates worked hard to clean up the entire mansion without leaving any dead ends, which was really spotless, much cleaner than his own bedroom.

In addition, the maids in the entire backyard have been carefully selected, all of them are superior, all of them have good faces and graceful figures, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have rich breasts and buttocks. Moreover, the entire thirty maids were all pure and lovely virgins, all of whom were specially prepared for Li Li, and they were obviously flattering and flattering, but they were afraid that the hospitality would not be considerate.

With such an arrangement, I have to admit that the Shangdang county guard has done his best, and he has done an impeccable job in all aspects, and there is no merit and hard work. It's a pity that his luck is not good, and Li Li fell ill on the first night of staying in the county government. Immediately, a group of tiger and wolf generals questioned him, if it weren't for Zhuge Liang's intercession, I was afraid that he would be slapped to death by one of these fierce generals in the army.

is because for the party Taishou, the situation in front of him is really a disaster, which makes him speechless and wants to cry without tears. The generals who were uneasy then saw that the many maids in the backyard were unpleasant, and reprimanded Taishou and his subordinates again, so that the officials of the Shangdang were frightened and trembling, so that several timid officials were so frightened that they peed their pants on the spot, and they were embarrassed and wolf.

Seeing that the generals lost control and lost their temper, Zhuge Liang was able to stop it at first, but as the generals became more and more fierce, his words did not work. The generals knew that he was the righteous brother of the lord Li Li, so they would not lose their temper with him, let alone be rude, but they could not listen to his persuasion. Nowadays, there will be only one attitude, that is, whoever has the means to save the lord Li Li will listen to whom, and no one's words will be easy to use, so avoid opening your mouth as soon as possible, otherwise you will be humiliated.

In this way, even though Zhuge Liang has the ability to reach the sky, he can't even help the group of generals in front of him who are about to run wild. So he could only stand outside the door of Li Li's bedroom, look at the situation in the bedroom from time to time, and then turn his head to look at the situation in the courtyard, with a bitter face, shaking his head and sighing helplessly.

"Mr. Kong Ming, the medical officers have tried their best, but the husband is still cold and hot, and he is in pain. Since there is nothing to be done, it is better to let the concubine try it. Just when Zhuge Liang was at a loss, Lu Lingqi, who was dressed in military uniform, changed back into a red brocade skirt at this moment, her black hair was wet, and Huo Ran had just bathed and changed clothes.

Zhuge Liang looked back at Lu Lingqi when he heard the sound, a hint of realization flashed in the corner of his eyes, and he said in surprise: "Sister-in-law, ?????? you are"

Hearing that Zhuge Liang had understood what he meant, Lu Lingqi couldn't help but blush, lowered her head shyly, and said softly: "The concubine has heard of this method before. Now that the husband is suffering from unbearable pain for ordinary people, struggling but unconscious, the concubine wants to give it a try when she sees that the medical officials are helpless, and she does not ask her husband to recover immediately, as long as she can wait for the two divine doctors to arrive here. I wonder if Mr. Kong Ming can make it? ”

"This 、、、" Zhuge Liang couldn't answer, he suddenly hesitated, and an extremely rare look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

In fact, Zhuge Liang knew that although Lu Lingqi was named Li Li's concubine, she was still in a perfect body, and Li Li never moved a finger from her. Zhuge Liang already knew the reason for this, it was nothing more than because Lu Lingqi's father Lu Bu was hesitant and unwilling to lead his troops to surrender. Because of this, for nearly a year after getting married, Li Li has been neither far nor close, lukewarm, and has not allowed her to truly become her own woman.

Although this is Li Li's family matter, Zhuge Liang is not only Li Li's brother-in-law, but also his brother-in-law, and Li Li's close confidants, because he can see the emotional entanglement between Lu Lingqi and Li Li as clearly as watching a fire from the other side. It was precisely because of knowing these inside stories that he was becoming more and more embarrassed at the moment, and he didn't know how to answer at all, so he didn't dare to make a decision lightly. After all, although he won Li Li's trust, he was a courtier after all. As a minister, how can he interfere in the affairs of the lord's family, and how dare he advocate for the lord's concubine?

It was Zhuge Liang who really felt embarrassed at this moment, hesitated, hesitated, and many thoughts came to his mind, and he also thought of the consequences of this matter. If the lord Li Li is safe and sound, and Li Li is in charge, it will save him from being caught in the middle and being difficult to behave inside. However, if this move has no effect, once Li Li falls ill, the consequences will be severe. At that time, Li Li fell ill and died, but he Zhuge Liang instructed Lu Lingqi to go to bed when Li Li was seriously ill, which could not help but make people suspect that he had ill intentions and could not escape the suspicion of plotting against the master. If this is the case, he jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it away, and he couldn't argue, and in the end he could only be martyred for Li Li, which truly confirmed the oath he made when he was righteous: he did not seek to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but to die on the same day and month of the same year.

In the midst of a rapid change of mind, Zhuge Liang is a responsible person who values love and righteousness after all. In an instant, he resolutely discarded many distractions and made his own decision.

But seeing that he bowed to Lu Lingqi, he said respectfully: "Instead of waiting for the divine doctor to arrive, it is better to give it a try." In this way, there is Mrs. Lao's sister-in-law. ”

After speaking, Zhuge Liang walked quickly to the stone steps and said loudly to the arguing generals in the courtyard: "Generals, be quiet! At present, the lord is suffering from wind and cold, and the medical officers are helpless, so for the sake of today, they can only let Mrs. Lingqi go to serve the lord, and maybe there is a chance to turn around, otherwise the lord may not be able to wait for the arrival of the divine doctor??????"

After a pause, Zhuge Liang took a deep breath and continued: "I know that I have shallow qualifications and have no right to decide any matters for the lord, especially at this critical juncture, it is not appropriate to do such an arrogant thing. However, Yu Gong, who is a minister under the account of the lord, should consider the safety of the lord; In private, the lord has the grace of knowing Zhuge Liang, and he is not afraid of being from a humble background, and he is considered a righteous brother. At this critical time, with affection and reason, I can't stand by and watch my lord suffer from illness. Therefore, in the next arrogance, Mrs. Lingqi was allowed to enter alone to serve the lord. Do you have any objections from the generals? ”

The voice fell for a while, and the many generals in the courtyard were still silent. At this moment, Chen Zhi and Shi A, the deputy commanders of Jin Yiwei, Kebineng, the deputy commander of the Youzhou battalion, and Hao Zhao, the guard of Huguan, strode forward and said respectfully: "I have no objection!" "After Huan Fei and Li Zhi left, the four of them were the heads of the generals, as long as the four of them agreed, the other generals naturally had nothing to say.
