Engaged in Zhonglang shooting aid walked down the steps quickly, and before he walked in front of Xiahou Xuan, he smiled and arched his hand, and said apologetically: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I'm tired and you've waited for a long time." ”

Xiahou Xuan bowed and returned the salute: "Don't dare, does the prime minister have time to see me?" ”

The shooting aid shook his head embarrassedly: "Prime Minister...... It's very busy, and I have to ask the envoy to wait a few more days. Your envoy, the scenery of Chengdu is good, you might as well go out of the city to see the beautiful scenery, as soon as the prime minister is free, he will send someone to invite the envoy. ”

Xiahou Xuan laughed helplessly, and he crooked his mouth: "I'm nothing, it's just that I can't afford to run back and forth." ”

The shooting aid immediately replied: "I am a simple and healthy citizen, and I am not afraid of hard work." I'm just walking a few steps, and I'm not worried about my life compared to Du Bohou, who died on the ship. ”

Xiahou Xuan smiled slightly: "Shooting Jun is old and strong, and his ambition is thousands of miles, which is really admirable." ”

Shooting aid also smiled: "Although Xiahou Jun is young, he has read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles, and his future is limitless. ”

Xiahou Xuan hahadaxiao, shooting aid also smiled, and the two parted ways. Xiahou Xuan got into the car, his face immediately sank, he closed the curtain of the car, and said angrily: "Go back, it's white again today." ”

The carriage started, and a pair of teenagers and girls, who had been huddled in two corners, had just walked a dozen paces away. The young man opened his mouth and was about to ask, but the girl's apricot eyes glared: "I'm an elder, I'll say it first!" ”

The young man rolled his eyes, but he didn't dare to refute, he honestly retracted into the corner and looked at Xiahou Xuan with blank eyes. Seeing that the girl did not pay attention to him. He pursed his lips in defiance. The girl leaned behind Xiahou Xuan with great interest, lay on Xiahou Xuan's back, and asked curiously: "Brother, what did you say to the old man just now, so happy?" ”

Xiahou Xuan turned his face sideways, glanced at the girl, and laughed: "Ah Xing, you are such a smart person who doesn't understand?" ”

The girl pursed her lips coquettishly: "You people speak in a twist and turn, how can I understand." ”

Xiahou Xuanxu clenched his fist and blocked it to his mouth. coughed: "Then you have to learn slowly." Otherwise, you won't be able to understand what others say in the future, how can you talk to others? ”

"Whoever dares to talk to me like that, I will beat him." The girl clenched her little fist and shook it vigorously in front of Xiahou Xuan. Wrinkled his little nose. He said nonchalantly: "Beat until he speaks." ”

Xiahou Xuan frowned: "You mean to say." I'm not talking about human words? ”

"Uh......" The girl realized that her blow was too big, her little face turned red, and she smiled deliciously: "Brother." I didn't say anything about you. She shook Xiahou Xuan's arm: "Okay, brother, just tell me." ”

"Okay, okay, don't shake it, I'll explain it to you." Xiahou Xuan was dizzy by the girl's shake, and hurriedly begged for mercy. "We came today to ask to see Prime Minister Zhuge and discuss with him the marriage of your sister Yuanrong and Wei Ba. But Prime Minister Zhuge didn't see me, so he only let the shooting aid push me. I said that it was too hard to run around, which means that Zhuge Liang did too much and did not pay attention to etiquette. The shooting aid pretended not to understand, saying that he was in good health, and it didn't matter how many steps he ran. ”

The girl listened intently, and then asked, "Then what did you mention about Du Bohou, who was trying the ship, and what happened?" ”

Xiahou Xuan coughed embarrassedly. "Shooting aid is a native of Guanzhong, a young man became famous, and he can be regarded as a talent, and it has been a long time since he arrived in Yizhou, many years ago he was a doctor sacrificing wine, but now he is still a Zhonglang, and he can only do errands, so I said that Zhuge Liang buried talents. He used the matter of Du Bohou to refute me, saying that we in Great Wei would not use people......"

In Xiahou Xuan's explanation, the carriage went out of the south gate, crossed the Jiangqiao and Yili bridges, and went west along the Jianjiang River. Out of the big city, Xiahou Xuan lifted the curtain of the car and enjoyed the scenery of Chengdu. It was midsummer, and Chengdu was surrounded by green trees, sails and shadows on the river, people came and went, and it was very lively. When approaching Jinguan City, the scenery becomes even more brocade, and the Shu brocade that is washing by the river seems to be inlaid with a brocade edge for the inspection river, which is very cute.

Seeing the beautiful Shu brocade, the girl was in no mood to listen to Xiahou Xuan explain those intrigues, she lay on the car rail, looked at the Shu brocade that was as bright as the stars, her eyes lit up, and she was full of praise. Xiahou Xuan saw it and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Shu brocade is a specialty of Yizhou, even in Luoyang is also a very popular high-quality fabric, the family of the powerful have sent people to Chengdu to buy, Shu brocade has become one of the important sources of income in Yizhou. However, in Chengdu, the origin of Shu brocade, Shu brocade is not casually obtained, Zhuge Liang nationalized Shu brocade, in addition to the emperor's reward, only a small number of Shu brocade can flow into the market every year. Because the demand is too large, the price of Shu brocade that flows into the market is extremely high, and there is no market, which further raises the price of Shu brocade. Despite such a high price, the Shu Han government issued a sale of Shu brocade was still in short supply, and as a horse of Shu brocade went out of Yizhou, Zhuge Liang gained a lot of wealth.

This is just one of Zhuge Liang's financial management measures.

After returning from Guanzhong at the beginning of the year, Zhuge Liang only went to Yong'an for a period of time, and later when the Xiangyang War broke out, Zhuge Liang returned to Chengdu and presided over government affairs wholeheartedly. Among the Three Kingdoms, Wei and Wu used a large number of troops to prepare for the Battle of Xiangyang, while Shu Han only used the Fangling garrison and the Hanzhong garrison, and did not mobilize a single soldier from Chengdu at all. On the contrary, after Zhuge Liang returned from Guanzhong, he also dismissed many soldiers and let them go home to reunite, just in time for spring ploughing.

Needless to say, the best day this year is Shu Han. Regardless of the outcome of the Battle of Xiangyang, the casualties of Wei and Wu will not be small, and more importantly, the large army will gather to prepare for war, which will inevitably affect spring plowing and delay the agricultural time. If you don't plow in the spring, what will you harvest in the fall? People live on food, and if the harvest is not good in one year, it is likely that it will take two or even three years to recover.

For the Wei State, which was bent on recapturing Guanzhong, the pressure was undoubtedly greater than that of the Wu State.

Zhuge Liang used 20,000 or 30,000 non-descendants to provoke a dispute in Xiangyang, dragging Wei and Wu into the quagmire of war, but he resumed production wholeheartedly in Yizhou. Make up for the losses caused by the Northern Expedition. He had enough confidence not to take him as a messenger in his eyes.

Looking at those busy scenes, Xiahou Xuan thought of the crisis in Luoyang.

From the day he went on the mission, he knew that his errand would be difficult, but he did not expect it to be so difficult. He, a famous man from Luoyang, arrived in Chengdu, but he couldn't even see Zhuge Liang's face, so he could only accompany the daughter and grandson of the old car rider general Zhang Fei to play and relieve boredom.

This young man is Zhang Fei's grandson Zhang Zun, and the girl is Zhang Fei's second daughter Zhang Xingcai. Zhang Bao is older, twelve years old, and Zhang Xingcai is nine years old, but she is older. Every time, he used this magic weapon to suppress Zhang Zun to the point that he had nothing to say. With the company of these two children. Occasionally, I can go to see Xiahou Hui, Xiahou Xuan's life in Chengdu is actually quite leisurely, but the heavy responsibility on his shoulders has not progressed for a long time, and there is no taste for the beautiful scenery of Haode.

But the initiative is not in his hands. It was useless for him to be in a hurry. I can only honestly wait. He didn't know how the battle was going in Xiangyang. However, he believed that Emperor Bixia must now be looking forward to him returning with good news. However, he didn't have any good news to bring to Emperor Bixia at all, if he told Emperor Bixia everything he had seen and heard in Chengdu. I'm afraid that Emperor Bixia will be even more uncomfortable.

Looking at the horse of Shu brocade, Xiahou Xuan frowned.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhuge Liang put down his pen, supported the case with both hands, and twisted his neck. The sore neck made a gurgling sound, and a tingling sensation spread throughout the body, and it seemed that the fatigue had been relieved a little.

"Xiahou Xuan is gone?"

Shooting aid hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Yes, he went out of the city, it seems that he should have gone to the Wei family." ”

Zhuge Liang smiled, didn't say anything more, and turned around and went out. Zhuge Liang took a letter of official paper and spread it on the case, picked up the pen, and was about to write, when he suddenly thought about something, turned to Huo Yi and said, "Where have they been?" ”

Huo Yi replied without thinking: "According to the schedule, the fastest tomorrow, the slowest day after tomorrow, will definitely be able to reach Chengdu." ”

Zhuge Liang nodded and thought for a while: "Since this is the case, this matter can't be delayed any longer, inform Jiang Wan, Zhang Yi, Yang Yi and others to come to dinner together today, and discuss the battle in Xiangyang by the way." ”

"Whoa." Huo Yi replied loudly, turned around and went out to make arrangements. Zhuge Liang sat alone, thought about it, and suddenly sighed. He put down his pen and got up and paced back and forth in the hall for a few steps, one hand behind his back and the other gently pinching his eyebrows.

Yang Yi held a stack of account books, walked in with vigorous steps, and saw Zhuge Liang pacing in the hall, so he smiled and said: "Prime Minister, it's been a hard day, it's time to rest early." If you still have to discuss things in the evening, your rest for today will be over again. ”

Zhuge Liang glanced at him, didn't answer his words, and said straight to the point: "Weigong, they are coming back soon, and the battle of Xiangyang was a big victory, which was originally a good thing, but I think it's a bit tricky." ”

Hearing the words of the Battle of Xiangyang, the smile on Yang Yi's face immediately changed, and he said lightly: "Prime Minister, if there is anything tricky, if you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have done it, you will be punished." Wei Ba has merit and merit, uneven rewards and punishments, and the merits and demerits should almost be offset. If the prime minister wants to open up the net, he can use his strengths and let him go to Cheguancheng or Jinguancheng. ”

Zhuge Liang looked at Yang Yi quietly. The more Yang Yi spoke, the quieter her voice became, and Zuihou closed her mouth tightly and twisted her face to something else. Zhuge Liang shook his head: "Wei Gong, do you really think Wei Ba has ever been?" ”

Yang Yi bit her thin lip, her cheeks bulged, and she said with a very lack of confidence: "Prime Minister, of course I know that it is right to lead Wei to attack Wu, but now that Sun Wei has died in battle, Sun Quan has lost his son and is in turmoil, and he will attribute his resentment to my Han, if he can't give him an explanation, he will inevitably form an alliance with Wei and launch an attack on me." What's wrong with wronging Wei Ba alone and solving the crisis of the country? ”

"You're not solving the country's crisis, you're venting your personal anger." Zhuge Liang shook his head again and again, extremely disappointed. "Forget it, you don't have to attend tonight's meeting, it's better to go back and rest early."

Yang Yi was stunned, his face immediately turned pale, he put down the account book, bowed down, turned around and walked out. (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you for seeing the rainbow dog 10,000 points of reward, and say a few digressions for this.

At the beginning of the month, Lao Zhuang said that he was not obsessed with asking for a monthly pass, that is to say, he only asked about hard work and did not ask about the result for whether he could enter the top six of the monthly pass classification. Of course, I'm happy to be able to enter, but if I can't enter, the sky is falling. Lao Zhuang has been begging for a monthly ticket recently, not to break his promise, but to ask for a monthly ticket is an attitude, just like it is impossible to become a god, but it is impossible not to work hard.

Lao Zhuang is not very good at interacting with people, there are not many people in the VIP group at present, chapter testimonials are one of the few interactive platforms, Lao Zhuang occasionally spit out two sentences or something is also an emotion, by no means rolling on the ground, hahaha...... Brother dog, you are a good person, Lao Zhuang is grateful.
