The Three Kingdoms of the Widow

The Wei River under the setting sun was very calm, sparkling like countless gold hidden in it, without any killing spirit.

The languid sunlight elongated the shadows of one person, one horse, and one person, one car nearby. Not far away, there were two resolute figures of young people, tall, stable, but also full of explosive power, as if an order, Then there will be a scene that moves like a rabbit.

Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan lightly, and spit out a series of seemingly irrelevant numbers between his lips: "51, three one six, three one zero, one hundred and three, four twenty, three six three..."

Sima Yi's expression changed.

After Sima Yi withdrew his troops from Shu, he regained some of Wei's important military towns, and then returned to the court.

Little did she know that there was a storm waiting for her at home.

As soon as they got home, Zhang Chunhua was headed by Sima Shi Sima Zhao and his servants were waiting to welcome him. The Bai family who had come back to life was also among them, with a low eyebrow and pleasing eyes, no longer seeing the innocence of the past.

After sending away his son, concubine Ji, and servants, Sima Yi hadn't had a few sips of water under Zhang Chunhua's service, when a servant came running profusely in sweat, saying that Wang's daughter-in-law had arrived.

"What is Yuan Ji here for?"

The servant seemed to be in a difficult situation, and only said that he couldn't stop him. Before Sima Yi could ask the reason, Wang Yuanji had already entered the main hall.

"Meet the General."

Sima Yi was stunned, it was not easy for Wang Yuanji to salute with her big belly.

Zhang Chunhua put down the water scorpion in his hand.

"Why is Yuan Ji here? Could it be your father..."

"It has nothing to do with my father. General, I'm here to ask Sima Zi about his whereabouts."

Sima Yi turned around and looked at the back house: "Zhao'er was in the mansion this morning, I don't know if he has gone out now, Yuan Ji, what do you want from him?"

"Ask him why he lied to me!"

"Lie to you?"

"He lied to me that he wasn't in Luoyang recently! But I saw him at Shenwumen yesterday!"

Sima Zhao has been very curious about his brother's whereabouts recently. In fact, he started to be curious the day his brother slapped him and told him to go find Yuan Ji. How could Master Sima know everything without leaving home!So he picked a late-night opportunity to follow up, and saw Sima Shi having a short conversation with a man in black near the Shenwu Gate. When he was trying to prick up his ears to eavesdrop, someone next to him gave him a hard punch: " Sima Zhao!"

Sima Zhao was so frightened that he almost lost his soul. Afterwards, he realized that everyone around him, from his father to his mother to his brother to his girlfriend, er, the girl, seemed to enjoy scaring him.

Sima Zhao turned around and saw Wang Yuanji. Wang Yuanji wanted to jump up and grab him by the collar, but she failed due to her physical condition. Instead, she grabbed Sima Zhao's front: "When did you say that!"

A cold light flashed in Sima Shi's eyes in the distance, and Sima Zhao went to look at the place where his elder brother was standing, but there was no one there.

"Yuan Ji, please spare me, I really can't say it now, my mother will kill me! Give me some time!"

Wang Yuanji stared at Sima Zhao's half-burning kung fu: "Your father will be back tomorrow."

"Ah...ah?" Sima Zhao still didn't understand what the girl was going to do.

Wang Yuanji pushed Sima Zhao hard: "Aren't you going to tell? Okay, I'll go and talk. I'll go to see the general and say it face-to-face!"

Listening to Wang Yuanji's narration, Sima Yi thought, so this child really came to me?But after talking for a long time, I still haven't said what happened.

"I want to ask the general, when will I marry Zishang?"

Sima Yi's hand holding the water scorpion stopped in mid-air.

"If you can't get married in these three months, you have to wait until after the child is born."

The veins on Sima Yi's left temple twitched.

Wang Yuanji suddenly thought of another possibility, and she immediately became angry: "Could it be that the general thinks that I'm using the child to threaten the Sima family! That's fine! If the general disagrees with me and my son, I will go back and take the child away." After birth, the Wang family will not be able to support a grandson!"

"Pfft ha ha ha ha..." Zhang Chunhua next to her suddenly laughed, she had had enough, she said to the maid beside her, "Go, call Zhao Er."

"you……"

From the corner of Zhang Chunhua's eyes, he glanced at Sima Yi: "Why, I have no control over the affairs of the inner house?"

While talking, Sima Zhao was attracted by the maidservant in a daze, but when he saw Wang Yuanji, the fog cleared. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was panicked at this moment, he didn't know anything other than kneeling quickly. What should I do.

"father!……"

Sima Yi was so angry that he trembled all over, without saying a word, the first thing he did was to step forward and slap him across the face: "It's unfortunate that you are a rebellious son!"

Zhang Chunhua still smiled softly beside him: "My good son, it really is your father's son, just like your father back then." As he spoke, he looked at Sima Yi meaningfully. "What you said was exactly the same as your father did back then."

But Wang Yuanji quit. She rushed forward to protect Sima Zhao: "What are you doing beating him! I just came to ask the General, if you agree with our marriage, it's fine, if you don't agree, let it be! Me and Zishang, yes Consensual. I am willing to conceive and give birth to this child, so don’t blame me!”

Wang Yuanji is the daughter of the Wang family, and she speaks frankly. Sima Yi couldn't teach him a lesson, so he could only look at his son with hatred, and was stopped by Wang Yuanji when he wanted to beat him. Dad, I, I know I was wrong! But I really like Yuan Ji, I really do! I beg you to agree! Send someone to Wang's mansion to hire Yuan Ji, not for my son, but also for my grandson! I can't wait!"

Zhang Chunhua didn't express any opinion on the side, but said as if sighing: "It is indeed father and son..."

When Sima Yi heard Zhang Chunhua's words, she turned to look at Zhang Chunhua; the others in the hall had already knelt down in unison, looking at her eagerly, waiting for her to come to a final conclusion.

What conclusions can there be... Sima Yi thought, if only the family law was in hand, she would definitely beat Sima Zhao to death now! "Do you know that dad has..."

"father……"

In such an awkward atmosphere, Master Sima turned out from behind.

"Master..."

Master Sima knelt down without saying a word.

This is good, there is one more person waiting for Sima Yi to give a final conclusion.

Sima Yi supported the cases: "Chunhua, send someone to send Yuan Ji back first."

"Father, then..."

Sima Zhao was too blind, so Sima Yi kicked him to the side: "Go back and think about your mistakes behind closed doors!"

Everyone in the hall retreated one after another, only Sima Shi was still kneeling on the spot, and Sima Yi walked over to help his son up.

Master Sima prostrated himself on the ground, "I beg you to fulfill me."

Sima Yi remained silent for a while, the eldest son was always the one who made him worry the most, but he also stood on the opposite side when it came to Sima Zhao's marriage.

"Master, do you know that Dad has already arranged for Zhao'er?"

Master Sima bowed down again: "I know, she is Wu Zhi's daughter."

"How did you ask father to tell Ji Zhong? Do you know that father is still supported by Ji Zhong in court?"

"My son knows." Sima Shi said, "Yuanji is also Wang Su's daughter, her grandfather Wang Lang was one of the three princes in the past, this is a good relationship, and..."

And it is rare that Sima Zhao and Wang Yuanji are in love with each other.

"Master, none of the members of the Sima family live for themselves." Sima Yi wanted to say that you and Xiahou Hui are doing well, "Where is Hui'er?"

"The medical officer came to see her and said that this time it was a daughter. I told her that if she couldn't give birth to a son, it would be of no use."

What if a son is born?

"The son is already born, what do you need her for?"

"Nonsense! Hui'er is your wife, you have to treat her well."

Sima Shi looked at Sima Yi: "If this is my father's order, I will."

... Nima, this child is using practical actions to imply that it is wrong for me to arrange a marriage!

"My son is already like this," Sima Shi said suddenly, "One son is enough."

Sima Yi suddenly felt sad, and when it came to the marriage of his children, of course Sima Shi was not the only victim, Sima Qinghe also died of it.

From Sima Qinghe, Sima Yi thought of another person, and she immediately looked sharply: "Master, are you still thinking about Zhuge Jin?"

Sima Shi paused: "Who is Zhuge Jin?"

Sima Yi drew out his long sword, and walked straight towards Zhuge Liang's four-wheeled cart with a murderous look.

Zhuge Liang looked at her with pity, but he was fearless.

Jiang Wei was ordered to stand guard not far away, but when he saw the situation was not good, he also drew his sword and rushed over: "Sir!"

On the opposite side, Sima Shi drew his sharp sword out of its sheath: "Jiang Wei! If you want to hurt my father, pass me first!"

Sima Yi suddenly stopped, raised his left arm, and signaled Sima Shi to back away.

"Bo Yue, step back, this is the grievance of our generation, and it has nothing to do with you." Zhuge Liang relaxed his feather fan and stopped Jiang Wei.

Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang just looked at each other, and Sima Yi suddenly showed an evil smile: "42, two six three..." She also glanced at Jiang Wei, "two six four..."

Zhuge Liang was indifferent, until he heard the last number, he tilted his head slightly: "Can you tell your grandson about it? Violence has always had no good results."

Sima Yi raised his eyebrows arrogantly: "That's out of my control."

"It's up to you, that's beyond my control." Zhuge Liang no longer insisted.

After returning from the fourth Northern Expedition, Li Yan was imprisoned.

The court system of "ruling the country according to the law" that Zhuge Liang tried his best to create is very efficient and moves like thunder.Li Yan was not unprepared, but he thought that before the incident happened, he would get the news no matter what, and there was still time to think about how to defend himself in advance.

It's not unreasonable for Li Yan to think so. He is Liu Bei's lonely and important minister. Although he and Zhuge Liang have been at odds many times, Zhuge Liang has always put on a high profile to tolerate him.Shang Shuling Chen Zhen once said to Zhuge Liang in private that "Li Zhengfang has scales in his belly", Zhuge Liang knew that this was saying that Li Yan's intentions were not righteous and might cause trouble.But Zhuge Liang replied to Chen Zhen at that time, "The major event is still undecided, the Han Dynasty is in danger, and the shortcoming of defeating Ping is nothing to praise." Li Yantong was in Chengdu, and conflicts broke out.In other words, Li Yan was used to Zhuge Liang's concessions.

"The prime minister occupies a high position and is trusted by His Majesty, so he must put on a high-minded appearance to clarify himself. Unlike the prime minister, I don't have so many worries." Li Yan once said this to the people around him.

So he had no idea that Zhuge Liang would give Liu Chan a letter as soon as he came back, saying, "Ping is a minister, he receives too much favor, does not think about loyalty, makes things for no reason, does not deal with shame, loses his way, abandons subjects in prison, and guides people into traitors. Passionate and mad, as if there is no world. If you expose yourself to adultery, you will be disgusted." This is too serious, and every word is used to the sharpest degree, without giving face at all.Naturally, Liu Chan didn't give face even more, and immediately questioned Li Yan and handed it over to Yousi.

Li Yan was not convinced.

"I'm not guilty of death! It's just a batch of grain and grass! It's not the first time that I can't get it through. The road is so difficult, so what if it's a few days late! Zhuge Liang just caught it this time and said I'm a traitor. ’, it’s simply public revenge!”

The more Li Yan thought about it in prison, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help shouting loudly. Zhuge Liang's sighing voice came from the darkness: "Zhengfang, the late emperor ordered you and me to make "Shu Ke" by ourselves. Why can't you even figure out the charges? Yes, who said you are a capital offender?"

Li Yan watched in surprise as Jiang Wei helped Zhuge Liang walk down the steps slowly.

"Bo Yue, you and the jailer go out first, and I will talk to Zhengfang alone." The lock on the door was unlocked, Zhuge Liang walked in slowly, watched Jiang Wei salute and led the people out, and then met Li Yan face to face. sit down.

Li Yan was a little ashamed, more dissatisfied, he deliberately sat sideways, ignoring Zhuge Liang.

"I know you are dissatisfied, but there is nothing wrong with punishing you this time."

"The matter of food and grass will not be questioned!"

"Zhengfang, you made a mistake in the army's food and grass, which led to the failure of the Northern Expedition and the failure of the Central Plains. Do you still think it's a trivial matter? Besides, it's nothing more than a wrong food and grass. You are beyond your power, so just tell your majesty the truth. Why do you Two things to conceal? Lied to me that His Majesty wanted me to withdraw troops, and told His Majesty that there was no shortage of food and grass because I withdrew troops on purpose—don’t you know how serious the crime of deceiving the emperor is?”

It's not that Li Yan doesn't know, he knows too much, he just thinks that nothing will happen, and he has too much confidence in himself. Now he hears Zhuge Liang's blunt accusation, and he also regrets it. Resentment came: "Even if I asked for it! Your appearance is too vicious. I also know that I have offended you before. If you have this opportunity, you will naturally not let it go!"

"Where did you offend me?"

"Ma Di!"

Zhuge Liang felt a sudden pain in his heart: "So you still know..."

Of course Li Yan knew.He wrote to Zhuge Liang to persuade Zhuge Liang to add Jiuxi to become king, or rumors that Sima Yi surrendered himself hinted that Liu Chan would make him a Hussar General.

Sima Qinghe said to him: Delay the food and grass, and then report the army's defeat to Liu Chan in advance.Because there is not enough food and grass, the army will be defeated, and it is too late for Zhuge Liang to review himself when the defeated army comes back. How could he pursue you for delaying food and grass?If she does this, she will be covering up her mistakes.She cherishes Qing Yu, and she will definitely take the responsibility alone, and you will be relieved.There is no harm in taking this opportunity to kill the prestige of political opponents.

The only thing Li Yan didn't expect was that the army would be defeated so badly, and Ma Di was defeated. The news of Ma Di's death spread back to Chengdu. Li Yan is very afraid that Zhuge Liang will pursue him with the intention of avenging Ma Su in a fit of anger.

But Zhuge Liang didn't, and, as Sima Qinghe said, Zhuge Liang "degraded himself to the third class" and took all the responsibilities.

"Because that was originally my responsibility. 'Appropriate punishment' was the principle when we ordered "Shu Ke". But Zheng Fang, why do you think that your responsibility will disappear completely when I assume the responsibility? These are two different things ah!"

"But you didn't pursue it at the time!"

"That's because under the conditions at the time, no longer holding anyone accountable is the way to ensure the stability of the country!"

Li Yan sneered at this reason: "Now you are not afraid that the country will be unstable, and you will come to settle the old score—you dare say that you have never hated me because of Ma Su!"

"I hated it, of course I hated it." Zhuge Liang's frank attitude caught Li Yan by surprise, "But before public grievances, I have no personal grudges."

"You mean... your concessions to me are all due to public affairs and selflessness?"

"At least I didn't have any selfishness when it comes to Zhengfang you, otherwise, I wouldn't have repeatedly reminded you about food and grass during the four Northern Expeditions. Back then, we all swore in front of the late emperor, but Zhengfang You have slowly changed over the years."

Becoming wanting money, power, and fame.He has become scheming, self-righteous and self-righteous. In Yong'an Palace, he promised Liu Bei to assist Zhuge Liang, and for the sake of the overall situation, he risked the crime of destroying the last emperor's edict and simply burned Li Yan, who said that Liu Bei let Zhuge Liang "do his own thing". Where is he now?

"Haven't you changed too? For the sake of your reputation, you have acted like a selfless person... What a hearty performance you wrote about me this time! You finally put me, a political enemy, to death, so I scold you I don't hide anymore!"

Contrary to Li Yan's expectation, after hearing these words, Zhuge Liang made a painful expression: "If possible, who would want to become like this? It's public and selfless, and it's nice to say it. Die, a person lives for everyone, but not for himself, does Zhengfang know that feeling? I wrote those words not because of some fun, but because it is the truth. Dare you say that I misunderstood you It’s also because I told myself to write the facts, so I never thought of putting you to death. Do you see that there is a word in my memorandum that mentions you as “coaxing and deceiving the emperor”? I just say you are “fascinated” It is not a capital offense to lead people to be traitors."

The last sentence touched Li Yan: "I won't die?"

"Based on the current crimes, no."

"Then what will happen to me? Will my family be involved?" Li Yan was eager to know the result.

"It's clearly written in "Shu Ke", Zhengfang, you can think for yourself. As for your family, you won't be implicated. Your son Li Feng is a cautious person, and His Majesty values ​​it very much. He has already asked Gongwei to guide him to take over the matter of food, grass and military supplies."

"Really? Prime Minister, you didn't lie to me?" Li Yan couldn't believe it excitedly when he heard that his son had a bright future.

"What's the benefit of lying to you? Even you are the same. Your Majesty said: 'Those who have passed, talk about the past, and it will be fine now.' There is no rule in "Shu Ke" that you can't use it for life after dismissal, so you still have a chance .”

This is great news, Li Yan immediately saluted Zhuge Liang seriously: "Thank you, Prime Minister."

"The law is so, why thank me?"

"Then I have one thing I have kept in my heart for a long time. Now I am asking the prime minister for advice. I wrote back to the sun and said, 'It has not worked for the thieves, and my confidant has not answered, but Fang favors Qi and Jin, and sits on his own. It is not righteous. .If Wei Zhanrui is destroyed, the emperor will return to his former residence and be promoted with the other princes. Although ten lives can be accepted, it will be worse than nine evils!' Is it written by the prime minister?"

Zhuge Liang was taken aback for a moment, then nodded affirmatively: "Yes."

"The prime minister really dares to accept ten tins? If His Majesty knows..."

"Your Majesty knows." Zhuge Liang slowly stood up and walked out, "If the Han Dynasty is revived, if Your Majesty dares to give it, I will accept it. Those are my sincere words, and I have no selfish intentions, so why should I be afraid of public discussion?"

The author has something to say:

Finally jumped the timeline... This jump lasted for three or four years, there is really nothing to write about if I don't jump!

Li Yan later changed his name to Li Ping, so Zhuge Liang called it "Ping" in the above table and the like.

This section is actually a math test?Who knows what the numbers Zhuge and Sima said mean?
