Chapter 856
Although Zhuge Liang sympathized with this capable man who had just lost his father, in his heart, he still felt that the appointment and dismissal this time was very inappropriate. Then who is Zhong Changtong? As a servant of the sacrificial mansion, good guy, the first thing after he took office is to demolish temples and altars, is that okay? ? ?

Zhuge Liang couldn't sleep all night thinking about this.

The next day, he arrived at Shizhongtai early, and directly asked Sima Yi to be in charge of all affairs in the stage temporarily, and left here himself. The officials did not express any dissatisfaction with a white Sima Yi in charge of Shizhongtai. It's not that they have much admiration for Sima Yi. Since Sima Yi crazily targeted these officials a few days ago, he has corrupted his image in their hearts.

However, they have been busy with these things for almost a year, even if Zhuge Liang is not around, they can handle them normally. When Zhuge Liang instructed them, Zhong Gou even said coldly: "Don't worry, Zhuge Gong, I will follow Zhuge Gong for a few days. , I already know these things very well in my heart, let alone Sima Gong manages it, even if I appoint a dog to command it, nothing will happen."

"Yes, after following Duke Zhuge for so long, even a dog should have compiled the laws by now." Facing the man's sarcasm, Sima Yi calmly replied.

Zhuge Liang was still thinking about Zhong Changtong, and didn't want to get involved in their quarrel, so he ordered a few words, and left in a hurry. No one doubted him, but Sima Yi, who didn't know what Zhuge Liang was thinking, thought to himself His "conspiracy" is a little more cautious.

After leaving Shizhongtai, Zhuge Liang drove to the official's mansion, but the official of the official mansion told him that Sun Quan asked to resign and go home, and he hadn't come for ten days. Zhuge Liang sighed, knowing that it was Ding You, but he was still helpless When they arrived at Taiwei's mansion, they learned that the servant order was coming, and the head of the family, Sun Ce, went out to greet him in person, took Zhuge Liang's hand, and kindly led him into the courtyard.

"Hey, now that I see Bofu running the house, I feel a little more relieved. I think the old Taiwei has a spirit in the spring, and he will be proud of Bofu." Zhuge Liang praised, even though Sun Taiwei left , but the Sun family did not suffer from it, and the incident of the brothers' quarrel that many people speculated did not happen. It is well known that the Sun family brothers are at odds.

The death of the old Taiwei made Sun Ce grow up in an instant. He assumed the position of the head of the family, treated his brothers and sisters well, and properly disposed of the servants in the family. Now he lives directly in the mansion. , but now he is extraordinarily mature, and he looks a bit like Sun Jian in every gesture. He stroked his beard and said calmly, "It's worse than my father."

"The general is impressive."

"I am older than Duke Zhuge, but I can only manage one family. Duke Zhuge is already ruling a country."

Sure enough, when the big tree that could provide shade fell down, he would still adapt to the scorching sun. A few days ago, the general of the southern army who was still impatient, now he was a bit scheming, and his words could not tell whether it was true or false. They sat in the guest room, had some tea, and exchanged pleasantries for a long time before Zhuge Liang asked, "Why don't you see Sun Li's mansion?"

Sun Ce said helplessly: "Because of what happened to my father, my brother was in grief. He fell ill and lay on the bed. It will take some time for him to get up."

Zhuge Liang was shocked, and asked, "Maybe I can go to see you?" Sun Ce thought for a while, and then took Zhuge Liang to the backyard and entered a room. Sure enough, there was an unpleasant smell of medicine. Seeing Zhuge Liang and his elder brother, Sun Quan struggled to get up, but Zhuge Liang hurriedly supported him and said, "Don't leave, don't leave!"

"I troubled Duke Zhuge to visit him personally."

"Don't talk like that. Sigh, it's good to recover from illness. This temple can lack light, but it can't lack Jun." Zhuge Liang said worriedly. Sun Ce stood aside without words. The two exchanged greetings for a long time. Zhuge Liang said Only then said: "I originally wanted to recommend someone to Sun Jun to serve as a servant of the sacrificial mansion. It seems that I still have to wait for Sun Jun to recover."

"Hey, the servant of Jifu She has already been appointed. It was directly issued by Shangshutai, and it is actually Zhong Changtong." Sun Quan said helplessly. It seems that he also understood Zhuge Liang's intention. After talking for a while, Zhuge Liang persuaded Sun Quan to take good care of himself and left. Sun Ce sent him out of the mansion and returned to the inner room.

"Erlang, he came here to find you, what's the matter?"

"In the matter of Zhong Changtong, Mr. Xun went crazy for some reason, so he insisted on letting him be the servant of the sacrificial mansion."

"So what? He doesn't agree with Zhong Changtong?"

"That's not true, brother must have heard of this person?"

"I heard that this person is good at catching ghosts. When he walked on the road, the ghosts and gods avoided him. Isn't it a good time for such a person to come to the priest's house?"

Sun Quan shook his head and said: "My brother doesn't know something. It doesn't matter. It's mainly his opinion. This guy has always opposed the national policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce. In Liangzhou, he is doing his best to develop commerce... He is extremely rebellious. , it is unbearable for everyone, such a person, coming to the temple, I am afraid that there will be a gust of wind."

Sun Ce was also taken aback when he heard the words, "There is such a madman?? It's really bluffing. Fortunately, I have you, so I don't know everything." Sun Quan shook his head and looked at Sun Ce , Said: "Brother, these days, you have changed too much. Looking at your words with Zhuge Liang, I have seen the demeanor of the heads of those aristocratic families. They are calm and angry. For my brother, It's still more difficult."

"Is there any way? You can be straightforward as a person, but you can't be the head of the house."

"Yes, the same is true of Duke Zhuge. He used to be a gentleman of benevolence and righteousness. He never concealed his actions and was a straightforward person. However, he has changed now, and he still wants all kinds of temptations. It seems that the higher the position , the more it can change a person."

The two brothers were chatting, but Zhuge Liang had already arrived at Shangshutai.

He originally thought that the decision to let Zhong Changtong enter the temple was made in a trance because Sun Quan was hit, but he didn't expect that it was Xun Yu who gave the order. Zhuge Liang still couldn't understand Xun Yu. After Guo Jia's death, it seemed that the Shang Shu Ling disappeared from the temple. The original Shang Shu Ling who acted vigorously and frightened the officials could never be found again.

When Zhuge Liang arrived at Shangshutai, there were still many officials busy. Seeing Zhuge Liang, everyone hurriedly got up to pay respects. Only then did the officials get up and lead Zhuge Liang into the study. Xun Yu was sitting in front of the desk, his eyes Empty, with a trance-like expression, the official uniform on his body seemed a bit out of place, and he became thinner and thinner.

The young man who used to fool Emperor Xiaoxian to go around and was beaten by Emperor Xiaokang is now sixty-two.

He was scolded by Emperor Xiaokang as the talent of Wangkeng, and now he has completely become the talent of Wang Zuo. He reformed the official system and commanded the officials. The biggest worry of the big man in the official system has been solved by this person. Now the officials Not belonging to each other, rules and regulations, the imperial power and the three orders form a corresponding balance, and all the results are due to this person.

"Xun Linggong??"

Zhuge Liang asked in a low voice.

Xun Yu was startled, as if frightened, and quickly looked at Zhuge Liang. After seeing the person clearly, Xun Yu just smiled friendlyly, waved his hand, and asked Zhuge Liang to sit in front of him. He thought for a moment before saying: : "Kong Ming, I want Luoyang to be divided and ruled. Luoyang is too big and has too many hidden dangers. The fire last month almost caused hundreds of casualties. I plan to set up two counties, one for Luoyang. Counties, one is Yang County, the planning has been completed."

Xun Yu pointed to the many documents on the case in front of him and asked, "What do you think?"

"Xun Linggong's words are justified."

"In addition, the division of the state and county, the state monarch is too big, the system of state pastoralism, I am afraid it will lead to disasters, I am preparing to divide Yangzhou into two parts, set Yangzhou, Jiangzhou, Take Jingzhou as Jingnan Prefecture, Jingbei Prefecture, Yizhou as Bazhou, and Shuzhou." Xun Yu said tremblingly, Zhuge Liang frowned.

"Linggong, I am not against your suggestion, but this rash change will affect the whole body, not to mention that the equalization of land and the law will be issued soon, should the matter of partition be postponed for a while?"

"Hahaha, are you afraid?" Xun Yu glanced at him and said, "It is at this time that the officials are all worried about the equalization of the land. When the law is in place, partition can be successful. They are all thinking If you go to Juntian, you won't pay attention to these things of the old man."

Zhuge Liang smiled, nodded, and asked again: "Then Zhong Changtong was also invited by you to disturb the officials?"

Xun Yu, who was still smiling before, suddenly changed his face when he heard Zhong Changtong's name, and asked a little angrily, "Mr. Zhuge is looking for me today, so it's because of the transfer of officials?"

"Don't dare, dare not, it's just that Zhong Changtong is unwell."

"Oh? Duke Zhuge has someone more suitable in mind? Don't worry, Duke Zhuge. It won't be too late to intervene in this aspect after the old man dies. Are you a little anxious now?"

"Xun Linggong, I didn't mean that."

"As an order of servants, you should do well what the emperor has told you. Don't tell me what to do here. Zhong Changtong has made extraordinary achievements in Liangzhou and is fully qualified to enter the temple. If you refuse to accept it, you can do it yourself." Play the Son of Heaven! Come here! See off the guests!!” Xun Yu ordered unceremoniously, Zhuge Liang was bewildered and was invited out by the officials without saying a word.

After walking out of Shangshutai, Zhuge Liang was still at a loss. Why was he so excited?
What is his plan?
The kind old man who was originally kind and kind suddenly drove him out like this. Zhuge Liang never thought about it. It seems that after Zhong Changtong arrived in Luoyang, he had to get in touch with him. Calling him back to the temple at this time must have been a plan, but why, I still can't see through this person, nor can I understand his actions.

In the whole court, there was one person he couldn't see through, one person he didn't dare to see through, and one person he could see through each other.
