Zhuge Shang pulled Zhuge Yun over and said, "Yun'er, this is His Majesty the Emperor, not my eldest brother. Please pay your respects to Your Majesty quickly."
"Greetings to Your Majesty."
Zhuge Yun saluted solemnly, as if he were a young adult.
Zhao Shan smiled, rubbed Zhuge Yun's head, and said, "As long as everything is fine, go play."
"okay!"
Zhuge Yun chuckled and ran away jumping up and down. Everyone in the Zhuge family also breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Zhao Shan one after another. Zhao Shan responded with a smile, and returned to the study with Zhuge Shang to sit down.
Zhuge Shang said again: "Zhuge Shang is deeply grateful for your Majesty's kindness. Without Your Majesty, Yun'er might have suffered something unexpected."
Zhao Shanxiao said: "This shows that Yun'er and I are destined."
Zhuge Shang sat upright and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty just said that the situation in the court is difficult, but it is not difficult. For example, Zhao Rui, the king of Chu who is entrenched in Jingzhou, is forty years old, but he is timid and afraid of getting into trouble. He only cares about one-third of an acre of Jingzhou and defends the land. Just a thief."
"Zhao Fan, the king of Wei who is entrenched in Jizhou, is a double-dealing man with no faith. He once recruited bandits and bandits from Jizhou, but he killed them immediately after they surrendered. Especially because of his small popularity, there is not enough evidence."
"Besides, Wu Wang Zhao Gou lived in Yangzhou. He was greedy for comfort and was especially fond of women. For a monarch, lust is a common thing, but in order to make women smile, he openly humiliated his ministers."
"The other kings in Daqian all have problems like this."
"A group of people are just kings because there are no tigers and monkeys in the mountains. That is to say, the previous emperors were lazy in government affairs and favored traitors, which led to the decline of the court's influence, which led to the division of the Qian Dynasty and the rebellion of the people."
Zhuge Shang talked eloquently and said: "After your Majesty works hard to govern, the strength of the imperial court will increase, and it will naturally sweep the world."
Zhao Shan's eyes were even more approving.
Zhuge Shang knows the situation of the kings of Daqian very well and can make targeted arrangements. This is his ability.
Zhao Shan stopped talking in circles and said solemnly: "Although I have little talent and little virtue, I am passionate and want to revitalize the great cadres and create a prosperous China. Mr. Zhuge has a great talent to stabilize the country. If he lives in seclusion in the mountains, the world will be in trouble." We are in danger of hanging upside down. Please come out, sir, to give me a helping hand."
Zhuge Shang also immediately stood up and returned the greeting, solemnly saying: "Your Majesty will not give up. I am willing to encourage you."
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "With your help, sir, I am like a fish in water."
Zhuge Shang hurriedly said humbly: "Your Majesty has given me the reward, but I am too embarrassed to deserve it."
A flash of light flashed across Zhao Shan's eyes, and he said directly: "The current court lacks someone who can take charge of the overall situation. After your husband enters the court, I will worship you as the prime minister and take charge of government affairs. You will be responsible for all government affairs."
"The specific operation will be more complicated. Sir, please follow me to Luoyang first. In the name of the emperor, I will recruit you to join the court as a councilor and participate in government affairs. At the court meeting, I will raise issues and discuss ways to enrich the country and strengthen the army."
"Sir, please feel free to speak your mind. Once the court meeting is over, I will worship you as Prime Minister."
hiss!
Zhuge Shang took a breath.
Too fast.
From Yilang to Prime Minister, he has become a monkey in the sky. In the early years of Daqian, there were prime ministers. Later, the emperor centralized power and abolished the prime ministers, and the three ministers and nine ministers were the main ones. Zhuge Shang was proud of his talent, but he was also a little nervous when he was suddenly promoted to prime minister.
Zhuge Shang humbly said: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that it is not appropriate to serve as prime minister despite my lack of merit."
Zhao Shan said loudly: "In today's imperial court, who has much credit? We do extraordinary things at extraordinary times. I trust you, sir, and you naturally have no doubts about who you employ. Could it be that you are afraid, sir?"
Zhuge Shang knew clearly that he was provoking the general, but he said loudly: "Your Majesty is not afraid, so what do you have to worry about?"
Zhao Shan nodded and said: "In that case, it's settled. Sir, please prepare how to elaborate on the issue of enriching the country and strengthening the army."
Zhuge Shangdao: "I have written it down."
He changed the topic and said: "If I want to serve as an official, I should also deal with people outside the Zhuge family. These people are spies of various kings. I suggest that we lure out the people outside and catch them all."
Zhao Shanxiao asked: "What are you going to do, sir?"
Zhuge Shang said lightly: "I went to the door to announce the news of my official appointment, saying that I would leave Zhongnan Mountain this afternoon to go to Luoyang to serve as an official. These people want to invite me to serve as an official, but also to prevent me from being poached by others."
"If I serve your Majesty, they will definitely rob and kill you on the way, and all forces will unite to rob and kill. What they can't get will be destroyed, so that others can't get it either."
Zhuge Shangxin said: "Your Majesty arranged for people to leave through the back door and mobilized troops to ambush along the way. Once the troops are in place, I will return with your Majesty and catch all those with evil intentions."
Zhao Shan praised: "It's doable!"
Zhuge Shang stood up and said, "I will go and announce the news immediately."
Zhao Shan nodded and followed Zhuge Shang to the door.
Zhuge Shang appeared in person, and the outside instantly became noisy, with countless people excited. Qian Wuque, in particular, was looking forward to it and said loudly: "Mr. Zhuge, I, Qian Wuque, would like to serve the King of Chu..."
"quiet!"
Zhuge Shang interrupted and said in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "I am grateful for your kind invitation. Your Majesty has arranged for envoys to be recruited, and I have agreed to serve as an official. I will leave for Luoyang this afternoon. You can leave."
boom! !
Everyone exploded instantly.
Everyone's expressions were shocked, especially Qian Wuque's expression became extremely cold, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes. He looked at the people around him, and many people also looked over. Under the focused gaze, everyone had their own thoughts.
Zhuge Shang saw this and didn't say anything more. He turned around and returned to the house with Zhao Shan.
Zhao Shan quickly arranged for Zhou Huhou to mobilize troops, and stayed at Zhuge's house to wait. Zhuge Shang also asked people to pack their bags.
More than half an hour later, near the afternoon time, Zhou Huhou came back and reported: "Your Majesty, General Wei Fengqing is training troops near Zhongnan Mountain. I told her the plan. In addition, I brought twenty people back and entered Zhuge through the back door. Home."
Zhao Shan nodded, and after talking to Zhuge Shang, he took Zhuge Shang's wife and children and left. The Zhuge family did not bring any servants with them, and the soldiers brought by Zhou Huhou pretended to be servants and accompanied them for protection.
The carriage drove for about three-quarters of an hour and arrived at a wide official road area. The driver suddenly reined in the horse, and the horse began to neigh.
"I opened this mountain and planted this tree. I want to pass by here and leave money to buy the road."
A shout suddenly came from the front.
A fat, short middle-aged man blocked the road with a mask and a sword. Around him, a group of men in black gathered, blocking the way.
Zhao Shan told Zhuge Shang to stay in the carriage and wait, and then got off the carriage.
When he saw the masked person, he mocked: "Qian Wuque, please change your voice, pretending to be a bandit is too fake. In addition, you are too ugly and fat. You are so fat that people will never forget it. Hurry and tighten your belly to cover it up." "
Qian Wuque's expression changed slightly, and he became even more angry after being ridiculed by Zhao Shan.
He pulled off his hood and waved his hands to surround Zhao Shan and others. He said coldly: "Boy, I've told you a long time ago that you can't mess with Prince Chu's Mansion, but you didn't listen."
"If you want to die, I will help you."
"You and Zhuge Shang are both dead, and no one knows who did it?"
"Besides, your mouth is too smelly. When I kill you, I will chop your mouth into pieces and then throw your body into the wilderness to be torn apart by jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains, leaving you dead without any parts of your body."
Qian Wuque decided to focus on taking care of Zhao Shan. This kid was so hateful.
Zhao Shan shook his head and said: "You think you ambushed me, why didn't I ambush you? It's me who is blocking the road now, not you."
Qian Wuque laughed loudly and looked disdainful: "Boy, is it just you? It's hard for two fists to defeat four hands. You have thin arms and legs, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."
"Your Majesty, Wei Fengqing is here."
Suddenly, a clear and loud sound came from a distance. Following the shouts, a dense army emerged and quickly surrounded them. The leader, Wei Fengqing, was dressed in fiery red, with a red war horse under his crotch and galloping over with a big gun.
Wei Fengqing said loudly: "Wei Fengqing is here. Anyone who offends the power of Heaven will be killed without mercy!"
boom! !
Qian Wuque felt as if thunder was exploding in his mind, and the look in Zhao Shan's eyes was even more shocking. The person in front of him was actually Emperor Zhao Shan? The emperor actually came to invite Zhuge Shang personally and even ambushed them personally.
Killing a chicken with a knife?
