Shu Han Confucian General of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 329
"Wait, Sima Yi, your wife is right!" Zhao Feng sighed as he stopped Sima Yi who was about to drink the poison.The latter couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, and put down the cup subconsciously, but didn't know what to ask.

"Your wife is right. Although I am over [-] years old, I did come to this world in the first year of Chuping!" Zhao Feng said to himself.Looking at Sima Yi who was already puzzled, Zhao Feng simply told him everything: "You don't know, Sima Yi, I am not from this era, I am from a later age!"

Zhao Feng has buried this secret in the deepest part of his heart for more than 20 years since he crossed over.He dared not tell even his wives and concubines who had skin-to-skin relationship with him.Such a secret has been buried in my heart for so many years, and sometimes I feel aggrieved when I think about it.Even Zhao Feng sometimes thinks that he is the loneliest person in the world.

Now that he was facing no one other than Sima Yi who was about to die, Zhao Feng simply calmed down and explained his origins in full.From how I came to this world, why I kept making troubles over and over again, and how to deal with him.Of course, when Zhao Feng was in a turbulent mood, he might not pay attention to logic in his speech, and he just talked about what he said.Anyway, Sima Yi is not a fool, and I am not afraid that he will not understand.What's more, I was just trying to be refreshing.

The more Sima Yi listened, the more surprised he became, the expression on his face gradually changed from shock to confusion, and finally he frowned.I don't know how long I've been rambling on, anyway, Zhao Feng didn't stop until he felt comfortable enough.After a long time, Zhao Feng finally stopped talking, let out a sigh of relief, and turned his head to look, as if he had never felt so comfortable in all these years.

"Do you understand why you lost?" Zhao Feng asked Sima Yi after heaving a sigh of relief.Comparing his heart with his heart, Sima Yi would not feel so wronged if Zhao Feng lost at the hands of a traveler who knew him well.

Unexpectedly, Sima Yi just nodded indifferently, and then smiled wryly, and the laughter became louder and louder, as if he was laughing extremely happily, but at the same time seemed extremely aggrieved, in short, it was extremely weird.Zhao Feng looked at him quietly and smiled, not knowing what he wanted to say.

After a long time, Sima Yi stopped laughing.Looking up at Zhao Feng, Sima Yi sneered and said, "Your Excellency, who do you think I am, Sima Yi? Since you have won, I will take it to heart. Why do you use such crazy words to humiliate me? Those who know can be killed." Don't be humiliated!" After speaking, Sima Yi picked up the wine glass on the table without stopping, raised his neck and drank it down in one gulp.

With a "click", Sima Yi's body limply fell to the ground, and after a twitch, his seven orifices bled and stopped moving.All this happened so quickly, Zhao Feng didn't even have time to react.When he came back to his senses, Sima Yi was already too dead.

"I'm so dizzy, I can't think about it so much!" Zhao Feng said a little speechlessly.Looking at Sima Yi who was completely dead right now, Zhao Feng sent an order to carry his body down, show his head to the public, and then hastily bury him.As for how to appease the hearts of the people in Hanzhong, it will not be done in a short while, let's wait for Lao Liu to send someone to talk about it.

Back in Nanzheng City, we met Ma Zhong and Liu Feng, and Zhao Feng briefly introduced them to Baocheng.Sima Yi was executed, and all the cities were captured. This battle of Hanzhong can be said to be a successful conclusion.Zhao Feng and others were sighing with emotion, but they received a report from an envoy sent by Liu Bei, saying that Hebei had also been calmed down.In this way, all the wars in the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty finally completely subsided.

"Finally, we don't have to fight anymore!" Zhao Feng said with a certain feeling in his heart.It has been 23 years since I came to this world, and I have been fighting during this period.From killing Liu Ping, then incorporating Guan Hai, and later taking control of Xuzhou, defeating Lao Cao for the first time, pacifying Yuzhou, sweeping Jiangdong, capturing Jingxiang, fiercely fighting Hanzhong and Xichuan, and then three Northern Expeditions, the world is unified.For the past 20 years, I have really been walking on the road without stopping.Now that I stopped like this, I felt a little relaxed for a while, but I seemed a little confused, and I didn't know what to do next for a while.

"Did the father ask us to do something?" Liu Feng was not concerned with himself, and he could still ask the imperial envoy who came to deliver the letter.The person who came quickly replied: "Your Majesty said, after the Crown Prince and the prince have killed Sima Yi, they can go to Luoyang to meet His Majesty immediately!"

"Since that is the case, General Zhao, let's go see the emperor. This time, the general will destroy Sima Yi, the traitor who murdered the king, and regain the Jade Seal of Chuanguo. The emperor will definitely not treat the general badly." Liu Feng said hastily.Although Zhao Feng is now the prince, Liu Feng sometimes used to call him a general.Zhao Feng couldn't help hesitating when he heard the words, and finally suggested: "His Royal Highness, you see that the religious people in Hanzhong often raise troubles, and I can't get out of it for a while. How about this, please go to Luoyang to meet His Majesty first. Let him send someone to Hanzhong to take over everything here!"

"That's true!" Liu Feng didn't think too much about it. He also knew that the matter here in Hanzhong could not be resolved in a short while. How to appease the people's hearts really needed to recruit capable officials to take up the post.However, what Liu Feng didn't expect was that after Zhao Feng sent him away, he had other plans.

Six days later in the afternoon, Liu Bei in Luoyang had just finished reviewing the memorials. He was already over fifty years old and felt a little tired, so he went to the imperial garden on the left side of the palace to bask in the sun.Empress Mi and the other concubines, as well as Prince Liu Feng accompanied them, and they all drank wine and admired chrysanthemums in the garden.For some less important matters, the right prime minister Zhuge Liang made up his mind.

"Good song, Aifei's piano skills have improved again!" Liu Bei applauded and praised.At this moment, a servant came to report: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Zhuge Kongming has something urgent to see you!"

"Kong Ming has something urgent to see?" Liu Bei was a little surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly announced him in.Not long after, Zhuge Liang came in in a hurry, "Kong Ming, what's the matter in such a hurry?" Liu Bei asked in surprise seeing Zhuge Liang's always calm face with a hint of worry.

"Your Majesty, just now I received a memorial from General Hussars. In the memorial, he said that he was suffering from serious illness and his energy was declining and he was unable to manage affairs. Therefore, he begged to resign from all official positions to His Majesty, and pray that his bones be returned to Harada for retirement!" Zhuge Liang replied, speaking as he said The memorial was passed to Liu Bei.The latter frowned and took a look, but saw that it was written in the memorial:
"Feng is a talented person, Hemeng has a special encounter, appoints his heart, controls the soldiers and horses, dares to exhaust his strength, and repays the effect. However, he is suffering from a serious illness and can't do what he wants. Fortunately, the world is united, and the Han Dynasty is restored. Your Majesty sits here today. Owning Shenzhou, the talents are at their peak, Feng is a martial artist, his intellect is blunt, and he is embarrassed to take on the important task. Now, I would like to ask Your Majesty to resign from the posts of Hushi General and Yizhou Shepherd. Moreover, I was born in a commoner, and I have no achievements in opening up the country. There is no sense of sworn brotherhood, and now we are trespassing on the throne, and I feel uneasy. I also hope that His Majesty will take back his order, and Xu Chen will return to the countryside to raise his bones. The couple are both merchants, with little wealth, and their children and grandchildren have more than enough food and clothing. I implore Your Majesty Enzhun, my minister Zhao Feng bows his head again!"

"This boy is so fast!" Liu Bei was a little upset after reading it, and after cursing, he handed the memorial to Liu Feng who was beside him, letting him have a look too.After Liu Feng finished reading it, Liu Bei also asked, "Feng'er, what do you think?"

"Father, this matter is very suspicious. General Zhao is skilled in martial arts and has a strong body. I have never heard of him suffering from any disease. And when I saw him in Hanzhong a few days ago, he was still in good health. How could he suddenly appear?" He was suffering from a serious illness all of a sudden, so he couldn't be a director? Besides, General Zhao is under forty years old, so how could he want to retire because of a small illness?" Liu Feng said with certainty after thinking about it.

"Then in your opinion, shouldn't I allow him to return to the field?" Liu Bei was noncommittal when he heard the words, but asked directly.

"That's right. Now that the world has just been settled, all kinds of things are waiting to be done. It's time to employ people. General Zhao not only uses soldiers like a god, he is also proficient in civil affairs. There are many places where he can be used. Furthermore, all the generals in the army If he returns to the land, I am afraid that there will be disputes among the party members in the court, which is not a good thing!" Liu Feng said after thinking about it.

"Feng'er, you can think of so many things, it's already very good!" Liu Bei praised with words, then turned to Zhuge Liang and asked, "Kong Ming, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, it's still impossible for an ordinary man to seize his ambition, let alone Zhao Botao is an outstanding person in the world?" Zhuge Liang said meaningfully.

"Forget it, pass the decree to allow Zhao Botao to resign from the positions of Hussar General and Yizhou Mu, as well as the title of Guanghan King, and order him to return to the field for retirement. The position of Hussar General will be taken over by the former General Guard Zhao Yun. As for Yizhou Mu, Bo Tao recommends Lu Xun, the former Grand Administrator of Guanghan, will take over and appoint him temporarily. Since Zhao Feng has resigned from his post, order him to hand over all military and political affairs and leave Xichuan within three days after receiving the order, there must be no mistake!" Liu Bei spoke very quickly and authentically.Zhuge Liang quickly took the order to draw up the decree. Liu Bei thought it was pretty good after reading it, so he stamped the Jade Seal of Chuanguo he had just obtained, and then quickly sent someone to Xichuan.

"Father, what is this?" Liu Feng asked in surprise.Not only him, but all the concubines were surprised why Liu Bei agreed.

"Feng'er, Empress, do you think I'm really old and confused, don't you know that talents are rare?" Liu Bei scolded with a smile, stood up and looked at the sunset in the west, and after a long time sighed: "He is indeed a talent Ah, he also understands me too well. He knows that I don't feel particularly at ease with him, so he retreats as an advance, and please feel at ease!" There was a lot of embarrassment in the words.

"Hey!" Liu Feng sighed a little after hearing this, and said nothing more.What he thought about in his heart was some teachings he had given him when he followed Zhao Feng in Jiaozhou and Hanzhong.Now, all this can only be recalled.

But at this moment, Zhao Feng was at his home in Xichuan, urging his family to pack up and discussing where he should go next. "Husband, have you ever thought about where we will go next?" Zhen Mi asked quietly.Zhao Feng looked back at his wives, and finally asked with a smile: "What do you think?"

"Pengcheng!" Diao Chan said first, and Zhen Jiang nodded with a smile.

"Chai Sang!" It was Zhen Mi and Xiao Qiao who said this.As for the last Da Qiao, after hesitating for a moment, he agreed: "Hi Chaisang!"

"Three to two, let's go to Chaisang first! Besides, Chaisang is adjacent to Poyang Academy, and my son will be admitted to school in two years!" Zhao Feng smiled. He didn't know that his old houses in Chaisang and Pengcheng were now It's still gone now. "By the way, we will set off quietly tomorrow morning, don't disturb others, understand?" Zhao Feng finally urged.

"Don't worry, my husband, we have everything." Zhen Jiang nodded, and after the discussion, everyone went back to rest and spent their last night in Xichuan.
