Liu Bei ascended the throne as King of Hanzhong, and all officials, big and small, received awards.

The above list encourages the one hundred and twenty-two people to enter, and everyone has a share.

After the banquet, Taichang Lai Gong asked to see Liu Bei alone and said: "My lord has been granted the title of King of Hanzhong today. You should choose the queen and the crown prince as soon as possible. Otherwise, if a rabbit walks across the road, thousands of people will chase him..."

"I have long decided that Adou will be the crown prince, so naturally he will be promoted to the crown prince. As for the queen... Deshun (Lai Gong), since you are too often, what good ideas do you have?" Liu Bei suddenly hesitated when he thought of this.

Because Sun Shangxiang is the legitimate wife and the main wife, it stands to reason that she should be promoted to queen, but Liu Bei had his own ideas in his heart.

First of all, the Sun family's wolfish heart has been revealed, and Liu Bei is not willing to let Sun Quan's sister become the queen; secondly, Sun Shangxiang only has one daughter, Liu Yi, Liu Chan, Liu Yong, and Liu Li's biological mothers are all here, and the maternal families of Mrs. Gan and Wu all have backers.

, it was impossible to adopt the heir to Sun Shangxiang; in the end, Liu Chan's uncle Lantian guarded Jiaozhou and was the one Liu Bei had to win over.

Due to the above reasons, Liu Bei planned to leave the queen's position permanently vacant, so that he could take care of all emotions. He looked at Lai Gong meaningfully, hoping that this Taichang would understand him.

Taichang ranks first among the nine ministers. He is the official in charge of rituals in the ancestral temple and has a high status.

Lai Gong's eyes were clear, and he seemed to have already thought about his response. He said firmly: "I believe that the crown prince is the heir to the king. In order to inherit the throne reasonably and legally in the future, it is best to deal with it in a way that satisfies his identity standards. Mrs. Gan

Although she is only a concubine, she is a virtuous and virtuous person with a noble demeanor, so I think I can make Gan the queen."

"Deshun's intention is clear, but raising a concubine as a wife is inconsistent with etiquette and law. In addition, there is no precedent. How can Bei violate the etiquette and law system? This matter should be discussed later."

Liu Bei shook his head and said to himself, "I know you have a good relationship with Lan Tian, ​​but it's really hard to handle such excessive demands."

Lai Gong continued to fight and said: "It is not unprecedented to make a concubine a wife. Cao Cao made his concubine Bian his first wife, and she was also a Kabuki actor..."

"Cao Cao is a traitor to the country. He behaves crazy and contrary to moral standards, and he is disdainful of him. Moreover, his first wife, Ding, only took Bian as his official wife after she lost her son and left his wife. There is no need to talk about the queen's affairs anymore, but we can first establish Adou.

For the crown prince." Liu Bei frowned and said.

"But..." Lai Gong was so contradicted by Liu Bei that he didn't know how to answer.

"You go down first, I need to rest." Liu Bei held his forehead to show that he was drunk.

"Wei." Lai Gong cupped his hands and walked away.

Two days later, Liu Bei wanted to return to Chengdu and summoned Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Fazheng, as well as generals such as Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and Zhao Yun, to discuss the arrangements for the garrison garrison in Hanzhong and Wudu.

Wudu and Hanzhong are now sparsely populated and people's livelihood is poor because of Cao Cao's relocation. Fortunately, Deng Ai brought back 100,000 people to work in the fields, which greatly restored the vitality of Hanzhong.

Hanzhong has dangerous passes and is blocked by high mountains. It is the gateway to the north of Yizhou and the place where Deng Ai cultivated his fields to support his people. Based on the importance of Wudu and Hanzhong, everyone thought that Zhang Fei, a man of integrity, would be allowed to guard Hanzhong.

Another righteous man, Ma Chao, was guarding Wudu, but Liu Bei stopped Wei Yan when he opened his mouth.

"Chang Wen, I have appointed you as the prefect of Hanzhong. Hanzhong is the gateway to Yizhou and is of great importance. What should you do if you hold this position?"

Liu Bei's meaningful words surprised all the civil and military officials in the hall. Although Wei Yan has been very popular recently, his qualifications in the army are still young. Not to mention Zhang Fei and Ma Chao, he is far behind Huang Zhong, Huo Jun and Zhao Yun.

Wei Yan was not timid at all in the face of Liu Bei's attention. He stood out and clasped his fists and responded sonorously: "If Cao Cao brings all the people from the world to come, I invite you to be the king and refuse them; if Cao Cao sends a hundred thousand generals to come, I invite you to be the king to swallow them up."

"Good." Liu Bei was very pleased.

"You are so strong, a man should be like this."

Zhang Fei looked at Wei Yan and nodded, giving his affirmative look. Upon seeing this, the other generals clasped their fists and congratulated each other.

"Yide, if the governor of Wudu leaves it to you, there won't be any problems, right? Remember not to drink too much." Liu Bei frowned and asked.

"Wudu is now a wasteland. Even if I want to drink, I have no place to produce anything. But I have to get drunk a few times during my trip to Jiaozhou." Zhang Fei, who was muttering with a dark face, suddenly scratched his head and laughed when he said that he was going to Jiaozhou.

"Why is Yide going to Jiaozhou?" Zhuge Liang, who was shaking his white feather fan, was surprised.

Liu Bei shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Yide suffered a lot in Wudu. Ziyu invited him to live in Guangzhou City for a while. Will he come back by the end of the year?"

"Of course I'm coming back. I'll bring you and the military advisor some good things." Zhang Fei replied with a smile.

"Wudu has just suffered a catastrophe, and now there are not many people left who have moved down the mountain. As the governor of Wudu, Yide is not sitting in Xiabian. If Cao Cao raises an army to invade, who will be responsible?" Zhuge Liang always thought it was child's play, how could he let Zhang go?

Why is Fei so angry? Why is Lan Tian also confused?

Liu Bei continued: "Meng Qi, I appoint you as the governor of Yangping, responsible for coordinating the two counties of Wudu and Hanzhong. In the past few months since Yide has been away, you should pay more attention to the safety of Wudu."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured." Ma Chao clasped his fists and accepted the order.

"Commander, don't be so stern. Cao Cao's thieves have been played by me enough. How can they dare to come here to find trouble? Besides, I keep Lei Tong and Lei Ding in Wudu. If Cao Cao's army really comes to attack, they can still enter the mountain.

Well." Zhang Fei didn't take it seriously.

"The art of war was taught to you by Ziyu?" Zhuge Liang asked doubtfully.

Zhang Fei replied naively: "It's a bit hard, but it's quite interesting. Why don't you come with me to Jiaozhou? Ziyu has hidden a lot of good tactics. Let's make him spit them out."

"Liang is not as leisurely as you." Zhuge Liang kept waving his hands.

Liu Bei relied on Zhang Fei's words and asked Zhuge Liang: "Ziyu recently added the law subject "Shu Ke" in Guangzhou Academy, intending to cultivate a group of talents who are proficient in law. Since there are no people engaged in law in his place, so

I would like to ask the military advisor to go to Jiaozhou to answer questions for the students in the academy."

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he asked, Lan Ziyu, is he going to let himself go? He still has a lot of things to do, so how can he have time to teach students?

"Your Majesty, I have been away from Chengdu for many days and have accumulated a lot of official business. I really don't have time to go to Jiaozhou to answer my questions. Since Shi Yuan has been appointed as Dali, why not let him go for a visit?"

Pang Tong stared at Zhuge Liang with his big eyes, how could all this be connected to me?

Just when Pang Tong was about to refute, Fa Zheng spoke up for him and said: "Although Shi Yuan is now Dali, he did not participate in the formulation of Shu Ke. Zhuge Military Advisor presided over the compilation of "Shu Ke". Perhaps General Lan invited you for this reason?

"

"Zhuge's military advisor has a backlog of government affairs, and the French military advisor has just assumed the post of Shangshu Ling. There should be no government backlog, right? You also participated in the formulation of the "Sichuan Science", why don't you come with me to Jiaozhou?" Zhang Fei suggested, taking advantage of every opportunity.

"What Yide said makes sense, I agree with you." Zhuge Liang quickly expressed his stance to Liu Bei.

"I also second the proposal." Pang Tong agreed with his hand.
