Chapter 190 Zhuge Liang: Liu Wu, I have long seen that you are not a good person!
boom! ~
Big waves hit the shore,
There was a loud bang.
The flags of the Wu and Chu navies covered the sky, and a large number of warships slowly docked on the shore of Jianye.
Looking from the shore,
The tall ship sides were stacked one upon another, covering each other, like a huge city floating on the river, completely surrounding the Jianye Riverside!
Wow~
The dense crowds of naval soldiers, like a flood that broke through a dam, rushed towards the shore of Jianye.
Two large royal flags fluttered freely in the wind, overlooking the living beings on this shore.
Snap! ~
Sun Quan once again set foot on the land of Jiangdong...
This is the lonely Jiangdong.
This is my lonely Jianye.
Sun Quan took a deep breath, a hint of intoxication flashed across his eyes: "I am finally back, Gu Jia, and I am still the sky above Jiangdong!"
Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and other Jiangdong generals gathered behind Sun Quan, and they all had different expressions...
After the Jianye Incident that day, Sun Shao ascended the throne.
These Huaisi faction generals,
These people, the confidants of the King of Wu,
Some were demoted, some were dismissed, some were imprisoned, some were jailed, and some were transferred away from important military posts. All of them were sidelined by the children of aristocratic families, and they gradually lost control of the army.
They are desperate.
The Marquis of Wu can't come back, the treacherous ministers and villains control Jianye, and Jiangdong is finished.
Seeing the future of Jiangdong's six counties and eighty-one states uncertain, the situation suddenly changed in an instant...
The Marquis of Wu was named King of Wu!
Liu Zilie led the navy of Jingzhou to help King Wu fight back!
The noble families who had originally expelled him and others from the army now had the audacity to reinstate him.
Those sons of noble families who occupied important positions in the army retired completely, and everything returned to normal.
Jiangdong is still the same Jiangdong.
It seems that everything before was just a dream...
But Zhou Yu and others knew very well that this was not a dream.
They looked ahead with complicated eyes, looking at the half-awake and half-drunk figure wearing a feather fan and a green scarf. The culprit of the Jianye Incident was right in front of them!
"Zhuge country bumpkin!" Sun Quan looked at Zhuge Liang not far away, and the chill in his voice was colder than the depths of winter.
If Zhuge Kongming had not instigated the Jiangdong noble families, how could the great Marquis of Wu have had his foundation taken away from him?
How could he be humiliated by that little beast Sun Shao on the river?
How could so many loyal and good people in Jiangdong be driven out of the government, nearly causing the aristocratic families to bring chaos to Jiangdong and almost destroying the foundation of the Sun family for three generations?
Sun Zhongmou gritted his teeth and subconsciously pressed the long sword at his waist.
Ta da~
Liu Wu walked past Sun Quan and walked towards Zhuge Liang step by step.
The dark sea of water masters all around,
Sun Quan and the generals of Jiangdong,
The Jiangdong family further away,
Almost all of Jiangdong's attention was focused on Liu Wu and Zhuge Wulong...
The early autumn sunshine still carries a bit of heat.
Zhuge Liang sat behind a table littered with cups and plates. He looked up at the young and majestic figure in front of him...
The bright sun was hanging high above Liu Wu's head.
The dazzling brilliance enveloped Liu Wu completely. The blinding golden light made it almost impossible for Zhuge Liang to open his eyes and look directly at Liu Wu.
Liu Wu spoke up: "I heard that you want to stop me outside Jianye?"
Looking at the former eldest son, now the King of Chu, Zhuge Liang sighed: "Isn't Liang trying to stop His Royal Highness the King of Chu right now?"
In the distance behind Zhuge Liang, there were many Jiangdong noble families who were respectful but did not dare to step forward without permission. Kong Ming was standing in front of them at this moment. Wasn't he trying to stop Liu Wu for these families?
Kong Ming saw the familiar faces behind Sun Quan.
Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, Zhou Tai...
These diehard Sun Quan loyalists who had been expelled and sidelined by the nobles were restored to their positions almost overnight. How could Zhuge Liang not see the trick behind this?
stop?
Zhuge Liang felt more and more bitter. With these Jiangdong noble families around, what could he use to stop Liu Wu?
"The last time I met Mr. Kong Ming so closely was on that snowy night in Gong'an." Liu Wu seemed to see the scene of Gong'an snowy night again...
In the heavy snow, Liu Wu and Zhuge Liang stood facing each other.
At that time, Liu Wu, in the snowy night, really wanted to take Mr. Wolong away: [Mr. wants to force me to stay, and I also want to forcefully take Mr. away. ]
[Sir, you were invited out of retirement by Liu Wu... Sir, you may as well go with Liu Wu. ]
call! ~
The biting snow and wind were broken by the autumn wind mixed with summer heat.
On the bank of Jianye, Liu Wu's voice continued: "If you had been willing to go with me that night, you wouldn't have ended up in this situation today..."
"Sir, you want to support a wise ruler and calm the chaotic world. Am I not a wise ruler?"
After half his life's struggles, Emperor Liu Bei only managed to occupy four counties in southern Jing, but he was unable to keep them.
Just one year after Liu Wu left Gong'an City, he had already taken control of Jingzhou, aimed at the Central Plains, and became a real warlord under the world.
The superiority of the two can be seen at a glance.
not to mention,
In order to invite Kong Ming to come out of seclusion, Liu Wu knelt in Wolong Hill for three days and three nights. This was the ultimate respect that all the princes in the world showed to the wise.
But if Zhuge Liang were allowed to choose again...
Zhuge Wulong closed his eyes slightly: "The wisdom of the King of Chu is far inferior to that of Lord Xuande, but even if Liang returns to that snowy night, and returns to that day at Wulong Hill..." "Liang, I will still work for Uncle Liu."
Liu Wu: “Why?”
"Because Liang cannot see through the King of Chu..." Zhuge Liang suddenly opened his eyes. This was the most important reason why he was unwilling to surrender to Liu Wu.
Zhuge Liang couldn't see through Liu Wu...
Liu Wu hid himself too deeply, he was too unfathomable.
He hides his loyalty, treachery, good and evil too deeply!
So deep that even I can't see through it.
So deep that I am daunted.
It was so deep that I didn't dare to gamble my lifelong reputation.
Zhuge Liang looked directly into Liu Wu's bright eyes: "Liang believes that he can see through the hearts of the people..."
"Uncle Liu wanted to revive the Han Dynasty for the third time and establish the great cause of Emperor Guangwu of Han."
"Cao Mengde wanted to continue the Han Dynasty's foundation in his own way, perhaps he had the heart of King Wen of Zhou."
"The King of Wu also has the ambition to swallow up the southern kingdom, go north to the Central Plains, and compete for supremacy in the world..."
"I can see through the minds of heroes and great men in the world, but I cannot see through the ambitions of the King of Chu, let alone guess! I don't know what great cause the King of Chu wants to achieve, what kind of shocking actions he wants to take, so how dare I serve the King of Chu?"
When Zhuge Liang was young, he traveled around the counties all over the country with his uncle Zhuge Xuan. He had seen enough of the wars in the world and the chaos in people's lives.
Bones are exposed in the wild, and no roosters crow for thousands of miles.
There was a hungry woman on the road, she abandoned her child in the grass.
I heard the sobbing and shed tears alone...
This extremely tragic scene was deeply engraved in Zhuge Liang's heart.
He wants to put an end to this chaotic world, he wants to find a benevolent ruler to assist.
He wanted to assist the holy ruler and restore the rule of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing of the Former Han Dynasty.
He wants the Holy Emperor to rule the country with ease, and let the people of the world rest and recuperate!
Although Liu Xuande did not have any intelligence or talent, he had a kind heart. Zhuge Liang believed that if Liu Bei could achieve great things, what he would do would definitely be what he wanted to do.
But what if Liu Wu achieved great success?
What will he do?
As Zhuge Liang said, he couldn't see through it, and he dared not guess.
When Liu Wu was in Gong'an, he often did shocking things and behaved in a way that was unorthodox. Although his actions always produced miraculous results, none of his words or actions were consistent with the teachings of the saints.
If I help such a person to become the ruler of the world, what will the world become?
Zhuge Liang didn't dare to think about it.
But he had read the history books. In the past, Qin Shihuang destroyed the six kingdoms, unified the country, abolished feudal fiefdoms, established counties, burned books and buried scholars, imposed corvée labor, and did not practice benevolent politics...
It almost completely destroyed the traditional teachings of the sages and wise men for three generations!
The scholars of the world disappeared and dared not speak a word.
The entire Chinese nation has undergone a change that was like the collapse of heaven and earth, and this change is still being criticized by the world to this day...
If Liu Wu holds power over the world, I am afraid that the changes he will bring to the world will be no less drastic than those brought about by Qin Shihuang!
Although Zhuge Liang didn't know what Liu Wu was going to do, he could vaguely feel that when that day really came, what Liu Wu did would either be a great benevolence or a great evil!
If I assist him... then the world will be in turmoil, the orthodox tradition will be hard to maintain, and it will not be a good thing for the people.
If you have different ideas and opinions, it's like living with a tiger, and it's not a good thing for you...
Liu Wu did not comment: "Mr. Kong Ming, is this why you are unwilling to work for me?"
Ah,
really,
In Kong Ming's eyes, he has never been a good person.
wow~
As the autumn wind blew, Zhuge Liang slowly stood up and said, "The King of Chu is not my wise ruler, and I am not his wise minister. Besides, a loyal minister cannot serve two rulers."
Having said all that needed to be said, Zhuge Liang closed his eyes tiredly. He was a little tired.
Liu Wu nodded: "I understand. Sir, you have been working hard for Jiangdong's affairs these days. I think you must be very tired..."
"Someone is coming."
Tap tap tap~
More than ten soldiers rushed forward.
"Take him aboard and imprison him in Xiling."
Zhuge Liang waved his sleeves and followed the soldiers to the boat with a calm expression...
"Zi Lie, wait a minute," Sun Quan suddenly shouted at Kong Ming's back, "Zhuge Liang! Where is the big-eared thief?"
Zhuge Liang is here, but where is Liu Xuande?
Zhou Yu and Huang Gai suddenly reacted and looked at Kong Ming's back.
Zhuge Liang acted as if he heard nothing, and just walked on board without stopping, neither hurried nor slow.
Sun Quan's face looked extremely grim.
Liu Xuande turned his back on kindness and caused chaos in Jiangdong, which almost prevented him from returning to Jianye.
He still had to settle this account with Liu Xuande, but now that Liu Xuande was gone, how could the great King Wu of the Han Dynasty be willing to accept this?
Zhuge Liang said nothing, clearly wanting to cover up Liu Xuande's tracks.
"Okay, okay, even if you, Zhuge Pifu, don't tell me, someone will know the whereabouts of the big-eared thief!"
bass! ~
Sun Quan drew his sword, turned around suddenly, and headed towards the Jiangdong family in the distance!
"King Wu is here!"
"He, why is he here with a sword?!"
The Jiangdong noble families all turned pale and their legs trembled when they saw the murderous King Wu coming towards them.
Without waiting for Sun Quan to leave,
These officials from noble families who had betrayed their masters knelt on the ground with a bang: "Your servants, respectfully welcome the King of Wu to return to Jiangdong!!"
"Your servants, respectfully welcome the King of Wu back to Jiangdong!!"
