Yu Yi walked up to Yang Yi, personally untied the rope from his hand, and said with a smile: "You are the prime minister's heir. If you don't follow the prime minister's plan, when will his coffin be returned, and how can Wei Yan relax?" Be vigilant, as for my final attack, it was because Wei Yan relaxed when he saw that I was just an ordinary soldier, and that's why he succeeded. Now it's all your credit for the important things to be saved!" So Yang Yi was named the Central Military Advisor, although Ma Dai made a sneak attack Although he failed, he also had merit, so he was rewarded with Wei Yan's title. Looking at Kong Ming's coffin, Yu Yi couldn't help but burst into tears. When he was about to discuss Kong Ming's specific burial place, Yang Yi suddenly submitted a tender document. Yu Yi took it and finally couldn't help crying.
Fei Yi said: "Before his death, the Prime Minister told me that he would be buried in Dingjun Mountain. No walls, bricks, stones, or sacrificial objects were needed."
After hearing this, Yu Yi sighed: "He really dedicated his life and died. The prime minister wants to be buried in Dingjun Mountain because he wants to look at the Central Plains in the north. He hopes that one day we can revive the Han Dynasty. Everyone must work hard to make progress. Fulfill the prime minister's last wish." So he followed the suggestion and asked Jiao Zhoubu to calculate the time. For an auspicious day in October this year, Yu Yi personally paid tribute and sent Kong Ming's coffin to be buried in Dingjun Mountain. At the same time, he issued an edict to offer sacrifices. Many people in Xiangyang The ministers also arrived to participate in this grand sacrifice, and many fell to the ground crying. Yu Yi named Kong Ming the Marquis of Wu, and at the same time built temples so that the people could enjoy sacrifices at all times.
Yu Yi thought that the three sworn brothers in Taoyuan would become immortals, and also wanted Kong Ming to have a status, so he added a temple, hoping that the people would worship him and be loved by all the people.
After everything was over, Yu Yi suddenly felt something and said: "Where can I find the Prime Minister's ancestral hall? There is a lot of cypress outside Jinguan City. The green grass reflects the spring color on the steps, and the oriole sounds good in the sky through the leaves. I have been worrying about the world's plans for three times. The two dynasties opened the hearts of the old ministers. He died before he left the army and made the hero burst into tears!"
After hearing this, everyone burst into tears, not knowing whether it was because they were grateful for Kong Ming's departure or because they were grateful for the last sentence of Yu Yi's poem.
After everything was ready, Yu Yi comforted Huang Yueying, encouraged Zhuge Zhan, and prepared to return to Xiangyang City. Before leaving, he asked Jiang Wei to take on the important task of the Northern Expedition. At the same time, he told Jiang Wei all the contents of the battle previously planned with Kong Ming. Wei, hoping to continue plotting against the Central Plains.
As for Yang Yi, Yu Yi didn't have a good impression of this person. He felt that he was too regular and couldn't achieve great things, and he didn't have much in common. However, since he was the person in charge designated by Kong Ming before his death, he had no choice but to let him Continue to exercise this right.
When Yu Yi was about to leave and return to Nanjun in Jingzhou, a soldier suddenly came to report: "There is an urgent report from the border. Quan Cong from Soochow has stationed troops in Jiangxia with tens of thousands of troops. I don't know what the purpose is."
Yu Yi paused and said, "Is it possible that Soochow is bullying us because the prime minister has just passed away and there are no talents in Western Shu?"
Jiang Wan came out and said: "I dare to guarantee that Wang Ping and Zhang Ni are guarding the south of Xiangyang with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to defend against Soochow's attack. Your Majesty can send another person to Soochow to report the funeral and see what Soochow is. What's the meaning."
Yuyi didn't know the strength of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and with the increase in land in Jingzhou, there were no talents or suitable candidates. Jiang Wan's memorial suddenly made him realize it, and he immediately agreed to the suggestion and said at the same time: "I think it's good, but I don’t know who can take the role of going to Soochow.”
Someone below responded and said, "Just let me go."
Yu Yi looked around and saw that the man who came out was from Nanyang Anzhong. His surname was Zong, his given name was Yu, and his courtesy name was Deyan.
Yu Yi felt that after Kong Ming left, he should boldly use talents. He thought that Soochow should not be so arrogant, so he asked him to go to Soochow to report the funeral and inquire about Soochow's activities. Yu Yi continued to arrange troops and horses, preparing to return to Jingzhou Nanjun. After explaining the affairs of Xishu to Liu Chan, he left Jiang Wan and other talents for him. In addition, Yu Yi also arranged some things for Yu Daye. I hope It is better to keep an eye on Liu Chan and not let him make mistakes.
Zong Yu followed the order and went forward, came to Jinling, and went to see Sun Quan, the Lord of Wu. He saw that the people on the left and right were all wearing plain clothes. Sun Quan looked a little sad and said: "We, the Wu Kingdom and the Shu Kingdom, are one family. Why are you here?" Are the troops increasing near Jingzhou preparing to attack Soochow?"
He replied: "Our Majesty believes that there are hills to the east and Jingzhou is surrounded by vacancies. We are afraid that Wei will take the opportunity to attack, so we increase our troops in Jingzhou. This is the inevitable situation and there is no explanation."
After hearing this, Sun Quan laughed and said: "It seems that Yu Yi is right to use you. Your talents are no less than Deng Zhi back then." Then he said to him: "I heard that your prime minister passed away in Wuzhangyuan, and I was very sad. I wash my face with tears every day and ask all officials to pay filial piety. I am afraid that the Wei army will take the opportunity to attack you, so I have added ten thousand troops there as a rescue. We, the Wu Kingdom and the Shu Kingdom, are one family and have no intention of invading."
Zong Yu felt very ashamed after hearing this. He knelt down and kowtowed in thanks. Sun Quan smiled and said: "Since I agreed to form an alliance, how could there be any reason for betrayal? When Lu Xun attacked Xiangyang in the past, it was all on his own initiative. Don't doubt my sincerity. "
Zong Yu said: "Because our prime minister passed away, the emperor specially ordered me to come to Soochow to report the funeral."
Sun Quan naturally knew his intention, so he took a bow and arrow, broke it in front of everyone, and swore: "If we bear the covenant, my descendants will be cut off." He also sent someone to bring some sacrificial objects and prepare to sacrifice in front of Kongming's tomb. , and ordered the establishment of a temple in Soochow so that Kong Ming could receive sacrifices from the people of Soochow.
Zong Yu bid farewell to the Lord of Wu and returned with the Wu envoy. At this time, Yuyi and others had returned to Nanjun of Jingzhou. As soon as they took their positions, they were reported and allowed to enter. He said: "The Lord of Wu has also been doing this every day because of the death of the prime minister. They shed tears and made all the ministers express filial piety. They suddenly increased their troops in Jiangxia because they were afraid that Wei would take the opportunity to attack Jingzhou. They had no other intention. They broke their bows and arrows and swore that they would not break the alliance."
Yu Yi was very happy after hearing this. He rewarded Zong Yu and treated Wu envoys favorably. At the same time, he said: "Sun Quan is very reassuring. He is our loyal partner. As long as we are in Xishu, Soochow will be there, and we will depend on each other." .”
After everything was ready, Yu Yi followed Kong Ming's advice before his death and named Jiang Wan the prime minister, general and minister, Fei Yi the minister's order to assist Jiang Wan in handling the prime minister's work, and Wu Yi as the general of chariots and cavalry, acting temporarily. As the governor of Hanzhong, Jiang Wei was granted the title of General Auxiliary to the Han Dynasty and Marquis of Pingxiang. The governor and other people stationed troops in Hanzhong with him to prevent Wei from attacking. The rest of them were rewarded.
Yang Yi thought that her contribution was great, and she was appointed by Kong Ming himself, but she was not conferred, her position was a little lower than Jiang Wan, and she was not rewarded. Although she did not say it in person, she was unhappy in her heart and said to Fei Yi: "Before, When the Prime Minister passed away, if I had surrendered to Wei with all my soldiers, how could I have ended up like this!"
Fei Yi got promoted and was no longer a good friend of Yang Yi. He reported this to Yu Yi. Yu Yi had a bad impression of Yang Yi and was even more angry. He immediately sent people to jail and prepared to behead him. .
