"In this case, Liang can only congratulate Mr. Qin for acquiring a 'great talent'!"
Zhuge Liang's weird congratulations were full of disdain.
Xu Shu's talent is quite good, but he still has to compete with someone!
In Zhuge Liang's eyes, even Pang Tong was not enough, so who was Xu Shu?
Pang Tong is already his future enemy, are he still afraid of another Xu Shu?
Who says that a strong alliance will definitely make us stronger?
In Zhuge Liang's view, Xu Shu's personality was completely opposite to Pang Tong's.
One seeks stability and likes to win in stability.
A person who takes risks always wants to gain big rewards at a small cost.
It would be strange if these two extreme people don't conflict when they come together!
Moreover, after Xu Shu was gone, Zhuge Liang was the only one left as the mastermind under Liu Bei.
Zhuge Liang's status and power will definitely become more prominent, and he will become the veritable number one person in Jingzhou under Liu Bei.
Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, with a proud look on his face.
"Hmph, stupidity!"
Liu Zhang snorted disdainfully, and Zhuge Liang's little actions were naturally noticed by him.
"Bring Xu's mother intact and release her immediately."
"If Mrs. Xu loses even one hair, I will cut off the ears of all the captives!"
"Remember, it's all!"
A trace of anger flashed in Zhuge Liang's eyes, Liu Zhang was a naked threat.
Doesn’t everyone include Guan Yu and other generals?
"Don't worry, Mr. Qin, Mother Xu will be delivered to you in good condition!"
"Please don't break your promise, Duke Qin."
Zhuge Liang still had some sense of control and stopped being arrogant about new conditions.
If Liu Zhang is really angered, many unnecessary variables will appear.
"Do you think Gu is a big-eared thief?"
"get out!"
Liu Zhang waved his hand impatiently, not wanting to see Zhuge Liang again.
He hopes that when the two meet again, Zhuge Liang will be a prisoner!
"Take care, Mr. Qin, Liang takes his leave!"
Zhuge Liang bowed his hands to Liu Zhang and nodded to Pang Tong.
Only Xu Shu just looked at it with disdain.
Then he turned around, fluttered his sleeves, and walked away without a trace of nostalgia.
Looking at Zhuge Liang's leaving figure, Liu Zhang felt very complicated.
Prime Minister Zhuge, who dedicated his life to death and lived in peace and tranquility, may never appear again.
Liu Zhang couldn't help but wonder, had he not gone to Taishan County and visited Zhuge Gui's home, the result would have been exactly the opposite?
It's a pity that the facts are uncertain and there is no certainty. How can Liu Zhang be given an if?
Perhaps because of his respect and love for Zhuge Liang in his previous life, Liu Zhang was always upset when he saw Zhuge Liang like this with his own eyes.
"Mr. Qin..."
A hoarse voice sounded, interrupting Liu Zhang's thoughts about Zhuge Liang.
It turned out that at some point, Xu Shu knelt down at Liu Zhang's feet.
"Yuan Nao, you..."
Faced with this situation, Liu Zhang didn't know what to say for a while.
Nominally speaking, Xu Shu and Liu Zhang have no relationship for the time being.
As things have developed so far, it's just Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang who have unilaterally decided that Xu Shu is a traitor.
And Xu Shu was relieved of all positions and status in Jingzhou.
Xu Shu did not surrender, nor did he declare his allegiance to Liu Zhang.
He did not use his own loyalty as a condition to ask Liu Zhang to do anything.
All actions in exchange for Xu's mother were done voluntarily by Liu Zhang.
In other words, even though Xu Shutian was shameless and said to Liu Zhang without shame,
Bringing my mother back is your personal behavior, Liu Zhang, and has nothing to do with me, Xu Shu.
Even if I, Xu Shu, retire to the mountains and forests, I will not be loyal to you.
Liu Zhang could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, thinking that he was unlucky.
Or Xu Shu could be more shameless and take his mother to Jingzhou to defect to Liu Bei. In name, even Liu Zhang could not stop him.
Without allegiance, there is no traitor.
Of course Liu Zhang could secretly execute Xu Shu and get rid of the problem once and for all.
That would be no different from neurosis.
Giving up the conditions of 300,000 people just to kill Xu Shu?
In general, Liu Zhang is a little uneasy at the moment.
From the release of Zhang Nan to today's deal with Zhuge Liang, everything was in line with Liu Zhang's expectations.
Xu Shu was finally misunderstood and became a spy who revealed military aircraft to Liu Zhang.
Father, like son!
Liu Zhang didn't know whether Xu Shu, as a wise man, had seen all this clearly, so he didn't know what Xu Shu was thinking.
But normally speaking, Xu Shu should be grateful to him and be moved by his dedication.
Just when he was extremely worried, Xu Shu finally spoke.
"Qin Gong worked hard and finally brought about today's situation..."
This simple sentence suddenly made Liu Zhang's heart skip a beat.
The originally stable heart immediately became anxious.
Being able to say this shows that Xu Shu was not affected by external factors and got carried away.
"Yuan Nao, you..."
Liu Zhang thought for a while and chose to keep his mouth shut.
If you say more, you will be wrong; if you say less, you will be wrong; if you say nothing, it will be good.
At this time, it would be better to collect Xu Shu's thoughts as much as possible.
Xu Shu did not blame Liu Zhang for being silent, and continued to talk to himself.
"If it weren't for Qin Gong's careful calculation, I'm afraid Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang would not have misunderstood Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang today."
"Xu Shu deeply admires Qin Gong's strategy. The combination of alienation and counterinsurgency tactics is really hard to guard against..."
Liu Zhang couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
It's like deliberately letting a thief kill a person's whole family, and then suddenly appearing when the thief is killing people.
Killing all the thieves and saving the lives of this man's whole family makes no difference.
Conspiracy and conspiracy contributed to today's ending.
Liu Zhang thought about it over and over, but still didn't speak.
There is no point in explaining more.
If Xu Shu was determined to be resentful and couldn't understand Liu Zhang's love for him, then it would be superfluous to say anything.
After all, Xu's mother is not dead, Xu Shu just lost the trust of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, that's all.
"Qin Gong, Xu Shu said this not because he resents Qin Gong, but because he sincerely admires Qin Gong's strategy."
"At the same time, I also want to thank Duke Qin. Without Duke Qin, how could I see the faces of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang?"
Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, and Xu Shu's tone had completely changed.
At this time, Pang Tong stood up immediately.
"With Brother Yuanzhi's ability, haven't you seen it yet?"
"It doesn't matter whether you rebelled or not!"
"Without a foundation in Jingzhou, you are destined to be sacrificed!"
"First Zhang Nan, then you!"
Xu Shu nodded slightly, now he had indeed seen through everything.
From the moment Zhuge Liang left Jiangling, I'm afraid the outcome was already doomed.
Liu Zhang wanted his mother in exchange for the captives without loss.
Liu Zhang didn't want his mother, so he abandoned himself without hesitation.
It doesn't matter whether he rebels or not, and Liu Bei doesn't care whether Xu Shu rebels or not.
For Liu Bei, how to save 100,000 people is the key point.
Therefore, Xu Shu's identity will not affect the outcome of the negotiation at all.
The only person who can influence it is Zhuge Liang himself!
