After eating the dinner arranged by Lu Su that could fade out like a bird, Zhao Yi sat beside Zhuge Liang's bed and reached out to try his head.
Zhuge Liang drank a bowl of decoction. Although his fever was not as high as yesterday, his body temperature was still abnormal, and he woke up and fell asleep in a daze.
"Military strategist, your physique is too bad. If you can't handle this, I have to train you well when you go back. Although we just said that strategists don't need to ride horses into battle, how can you do it without a good body? Even if you engage in internal affairs, it will take a lot of effort. Physical.”
Zhao Yi took some water and used cotton cloth to physically cool down Zhuge Liang. The latter seemed to feel a little more comfortable, opened his eyes and said: "Hongfei... Military advisor, tomorrow Wu Lord Sun Quan will recruit you to meet, Jiangdong Talents Ji Ji, the three generations of the Sun family have deep-rooted business, so Sun Quan was able to survive the death of his father and brother without attacking his subordinates. This alone shows that this person has some skills, ahem..."
Zhuge Liang coughed a few times. Zhao Yi hurriedly put his hand on his chest to calm his breathing and said softly: "Okay, my military advisor~ I understand that giving birth to a son should be like Sun Zhongmou~"
Zhao Yi stopped in mid-sentence. He almost said, "After all, he is the person who will be the emperor in the future, so how can he be wrong?"
He was afraid that if he accidentally said it, Zhuge Liang would think that he had a fever and was confused.
"Having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou? This is a novel statement, but what you said is correct. However, according to my observation, since he can let Lu Zijing go to Xiakou and invite us to Jiangdong, he must have the intention to form an alliance. At least he is not willing. He handed over this Jiangdong foundation to Cao Cao.
But... although Sun Quan has this idea, he has to listen to the opinions of the Soochow civil servant group and the peace faction headed by Zhang Zhao. So this time we are not so much trying to persuade Sun Quan, the leader of Wu. To convince his civil servant group..."
Zhao Yi nodded, patted Zhuge Liang on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, military advisor, I have done my homework in advance. 'If you are not sure about foreign affairs, ask Zhou Yu, and if you are not sure about internal affairs, ask Zhang Zhao.' The little overlord Sun Ce gave it to his brother before he left. It's not difficult to guess how powerful Zhang Zhao is from the last words he left behind. What's more, the governors Zhou Yu and Lu Zijing are both leading the battle. Tomorrow's reception banquet will probably be a verbal exchange. I know what to do. "
Zhao Yi didn't say anything, but he said in his heart, isn't it just a verbal battle with the Confucian scholars? He has watched or played whether it is a movie, TV series or computer game. As long as he follows Zhuge Liang's words and rhythm in history, there should be no problem.
Zhuge Liang was confused by what Zhao Yi said. He looked at Zhao Yun's clan brother in front of him with some confusion. He couldn't understand that at such a young age, this boy could not only make a big show on Changbanpo, but also kill Gao Lan who lived in Siting in Hejian with one move. , saved his life on the river, and now he can actually say such words, which really surprises him. Why didn't he notice it before?
Zhuge Liang didn't know what else to explain for a moment. He was still suffering from a fever and his mind was in a daze. He sighed and said: "Hey...my body is really not up to par. Since Hongfei has advanced It’s best if you’ve done your homework. Come closer. I’ll tell you now. If you are lucky enough to meet Sun Quan and persuade them to form an alliance, then the next step will definitely be detailed negotiations and the distribution of benefits after the war. ....”
Zhao Yi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and recalled in his mind, whether it was the movies or TV series he had watched before, or the games he had played, he only told how wonderful the verbal battle was, how grand the Battle of Chibi was, and how Cao Cao was beaten after it was over. The Sun and Liu families came back victorious, but they never said how the specific benefits were divided.
"Military advisor, tell me, I'm listening."
Zhuge Liang took a few breaths and asked Zhao Yi to lean down next to his ear and explain in a low voice.
Zhao Yi was a little surprised after hearing this, but he soon felt relieved. After all, history is history, and romance is romance. Romance generally only magnifies certain details or a certain event, but history does not have such emphasis.
To be honest, he had previously regarded his trip to the Three Kingdoms as a game, or even a stage play that he had experienced personally, and he did not have much sense of belonging and participation. But just now, after Zhuge Liang explained some things that had not been shown on TV for him, , Zhao Yi realized how heavy the burden was on his shoulders.
"Commander, don't worry. I understand. It's time to recover. You'll see what I do tomorrow."
Watching Zhuge Liang fall asleep, Zhao Yi got up and prepared to go back to his room.
The sky was completely dark at this moment. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty a thousand years ago, there was no entertainment at all after nightfall. Zhao Yi walked under the corridor when his nose suddenly felt itchy and he sneezed twice in succession.
"Sneeze, sneeze! Am I going to catch a cold too?"
He muttered something quietly, didn't pay attention, rubbed his nose and entered the house.
In the backyard of the Sun family's residence, Sun Shangxiang, who had changed into a black outfit, dragged a young man to the side of the wall and got into the shadow of the building while the patrolling soldiers were not paying attention.
"Third Miss, do you really want to do this? My lord has already said that we will host a banquet for Zhuge Kongming tomorrow. If you chop off his hand tonight, how will you report it to the lord tomorrow? I heard that Zhuge Kongming belongs to Master Zhuge Jin. My younger brother is Liu Bei’s military advisor, and he is here with a mission this time.”
Sun Shangxiang glared at the young man behind him, wrinkled his nose and said: "Gongji, I have been bullied by him, can you hold back and not vent your anger on my behalf? Even if you don't really cut off his hand, beating him is the best option. Damn, are you scared?"
The young man who was replaced by Sun Shangxiang for public service was none other than Ling Tong, the son of the famous general Ling Cao of the Kingdom of Wu.
In the spring, he followed Sun Quan to attack Huang Zu. He fought with great merit and was appointed as the captain of Chenglie. Because he was similar in age and liked to play with swords and sticks, he soon became Sun Shangxiang's playmate and best friend. Since he was under Zhao Yi during the day, After suffering a loss, Sun Shangxiang became angrier the more he thought about it, so he simply called Ling Tong and took advantage of the dark moon and high wind to go to the official residence to take revenge.
"What are you talking about? I'm afraid? How could I be afraid? I'm Ling Tong. I will become a general in the future. I don't care about Zhuge Kongming. Come on, if you dare to bully the third lady, you must be beaten hard. Dun, if the lord asks me to question you tomorrow, just say I did it!"
Sun Shangxiang's face lit up, and he patted Ling Tong on the arm and said: "I know you are the most loyal to Gongji. Don't worry. If my second brother pursues the case, you will blame it all on me. He loves me very much, no. What will happen to me, let’s go~”
The two reached an agreement, and using the shadow of the building and the blind spot in their field of vision, they ran out of the Sun family's mansion without much effort and headed towards the official residence where Zhao Yi and Zhuge Liang lived.
At the same time, on an uninhabited shoal by the river, the body of the weirdo who was shot by Zhao Yi two days ago was stranded there. It was swollen by the river water and was accompanied by bursts of stench.
Two figures stood not far from the corpse and stared at it for a long time. One of them said in a hoarse voice: "Fang Jiqing is actually dead. Who did it?"
Another figure replied: "I only know that before he came, he said that there were uncontrollable variables in the general trend of the world, and those variables came from Changbanpo."
"Changbanpo... isn't that the place where Cao Jun and Liu Jun fought not long ago?"
"That's right, I heard that in the battle at Changbanpo that day, two people under Liu Bei's account stole the show. Both of them are named Zhao and belong to the Zhao family in Changshan. They are the elder brother Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong, and the younger brother Zhao Yi and Zhao Hongfei."
"Changshan Zhao... I've heard of Zhao Zilong. Who is Zhao Hongfei? He's just a useless piece of trash."
"But since Fang Jiqing said that there are uncontrollable variables in the trend, could it be caused by Zhao Hongfei?"
The person who spoke before was silent for a while and said: "If we find Zhao Hongfei, no matter whether Fang Jiqing dies because of him or not, he can't continue to live."
"Okay, leave this matter to me. I know that Zhao Hongfei has entered Chaisang City and lives in an official residence. The guards are not very tight."
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, but you have to remember that since he can kill Fang Jiqing, it means that he hides it very well."
"Don't worry, I, Li Hong, have never failed in my attempts."
