Chapter 274 Clever solution
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said, "I advised me to accept the nine tinsels and become the king. This is a illusion! I didn't expect that the righteous side was so deeply indignant about me that it had reached the point of using such a method. It really hurts me."
"Prime Minister, Yi has long said that Li Duhu has a bad intention and should be more careful and take action early. The Prime Minister just refused to do so. Thinking of the kindness of being entrusted with him and being tolerant of him, he actually encouraged his arrogance.
Now that he cannot observe the Prime Minister's desire to be patient and do evil things, he will do this woman to do evil things. If the emperor and the court officials know it, it will definitely shock the court and the whole country will doubt the Prime Minister's loyalty. At that time, it will probably cause a big chaos." Yang Yi said earnestly.
The reason why Yang Yi was so worried about the consequences of this matter was that he was not a good intention for his ministers.
Jiuxi refers to nine types of ritual vessels: chariots, horses, clothes, music, red houses, hubi, tigers, axes, bows, arrows, and turbulent rituals. They were originally the highest rewards given to their ministers by the emperor, and only two people who have received such honors in the Han Dynasty for four hundred years.
These two people should be both famous and respected, but now they are all ugly images of the great female officials in the hearts of the people in the world. One of these two people is Wang Mang and the other is Cao Cao.
Wang Mang received Jiuxi and established the New Dynasty on behalf of the Han Dynasty. Cao Cao received Jiuxi and his son Cao Pi established Wei on behalf of the Han Dynasty. With these two people endorsing him, the addition of Jiuxi as a minister became a precursor to usurpation of the throne.
Therefore, Li Yan's move was on the surface to flatter Zhuge Liang, but in fact he deliberately put Zhuge Liang on the fire, and his intention was vicious. Zhuge Liang was angry and sad after reading the letter.
The reason for his anger was that Li Yan was so crazy that he used such despicable means to fight for power and profit. As for his sadness, it was because Li Yan's move not only disappointed him, but also let down the great grace of the late emperor.
Now that the Han Dynasty is in decline, the ministers should have worked together to help each other and seek revival. Unexpectedly, the two top two important officials in the court cannot truly achieve unity. This is really helpless.
Especially at this critical moment when the Northern Expedition was imminent, Li Yanlai's move really made Zhuge Liang feel a little difficult.
"Li Yan's primary purpose in this move was to refuse the order to transfer him to Hanzhong. As for the injustice, he was still second. Although his methods were despicable, we should persuade him with great righteousness."
After Yang Yi was angry, Zhuge Liang calmed down and said in a gentle tone: "He is not only a rare talent, but also a minister of the former emperor's orphans. He was unable to fight against Cao Wei in the north and restore the Han Dynasty, but he still had his support."
"But Prime Minister, I don't listen to your orders at all now, and your whole heart is probably going to waste." Yang Yi said sadly.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "As long as my intention is loyal to the Han Dynasty, my intention will not be wasted. You don't have to worry about this matter, I have my own way to deal with it."
"But Prime Minister, these nine tins..."
Yang Yi wanted to persuade him again, but Zhuge Liang interrupted him: "Go and handle business affairs, there are a lot of business affairs recently."
"Yes, Prime Minister." Yang Yi opened her mouth and wanted to say something else, but in the end she didn't speak anymore, bowed and walked out.
Looking at Yang Yi's departure back, Zhuge Liang sighed and closed his eyes and began to ponder. After a while, he opened his eyes and picked up his pen to write a reply.
Zhuge Liang wrote two letters in one breath, one for Meng Da and the other for Li Yan.
In his letter to Li Yan, he wrote: "I have known each other for a long time and can't understand each other again! I will teach you to the country below and keep it from being silenced, so I have not been silent.
I was a stern scholar in the East, and I mistakenly used it for the former emperor, and my position was the highest minister, and my salary was given to him by 10 billion yuan. Now that I have not succeeded in the fight against the thief, my confidant has not answered, but I favored Qi and Jin, and I am honored by the greatness, which is not the meaning of it. If Wei was destroyed and Rui was killed, the emperor would return to his former residence and be promoted to the same place with his sons, even if he could receive ten lives, let alone nine evils!"
In response to Li Yan's conspiracy to accept Jiu Xi, Zhuge Liang first directly expressed his disappointment with Li Yan, and then said earnestly that the two of them should have the responsibility of being the entrusted officials. Finally, he said bluntly that if they complete the great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty and regaining the old capital, let alone Jiu Xi, even Ten Xi can be accepted. By then, everyone can be promoted and promoted and enjoy this glorious moment together.
Zhuge Liang returned to the original glory of receiving Jiuxi, cleverly eliminated the usurpation behind receiving Jiuxi, and showed his broad mind to serve the country with one mind.
"I hope this letter will impress the righteous side and bring him back to the right path to restore the Han Dynasty." Zhuge Liang murmured with a sealed book slip and put it in a box.
Ten days later, Li Yan looked at Zhuge Liang's reply letter for a long time and did not say a word. He did not expect that Zhuge Liang would say something that could be accepted by Ten Si. This made the deep political meaning behind Jia Jiu Si become weaker.
Li Yan felt as if he had punched the space, and the carefully prepared tricks were actually resolved by Zhuge Liang in an understatement. The opponent's response was so easy that he seemed very stupid.
"What a good Zhuge Kongming, even though he is worth ten lives, let alone Yu Jiuxie? Hehe, I underestimate him after all." Looking at Zhuge Liang's handwritten letter, Li Yan laughed furiously.
Hu Zhong, who was standing beside him, said carefully: "Protector, what should we do next? The Prime Minister urged you to lead your troops north again."
"What should I do? Didn't he want me to go to Hanzhong to take action? OK, I have to give some errands money."
Hu Zhongqi said: "Running errand money? What is errand money?"
"Hmph, you will know after that." Li Yan said coldly.
When Zhuge Liang received Li Yan's reply, he was once again disappointed. Not only did Li Yan not listen to the advice, he became even more aggressive and openly asked for power from himself.
"There are divided into Ba County, Badong County, Baxi County, Fuling County, Guanghan County as Bazhou, and Li Duhu was appointed as the governor of Bazhou." Yang Qing took the book from Yang Yi and read it in surprise when he saw this section.
He came to say goodbye to Zhuge Liang today. He had been away from Nanzheng for a long time, so it was time for him, the prefect of Hanzhong, to go back to the capital to take a look.
