There was a heated discussion in the morning meeting.

At present, ministers such as Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, Liu Ba and other core think tanks have all seen outstanding military performance in recent days.

Therefore, after hearing the news that Governor Huo Jun died of illness in the military.

After thinking for a moment, everyone agreed with Zhuge Liang's suggestion.

But everything has two sides!

If there are second opinions, there will naturally be objections.

The native Shuzhong ministers headed by Wu Yi refuted Zhao Tong's request on the grounds that he was still young.

only.

However, these sub-groups are not just sharing worries for the country.

Zhao Tong is the eldest son of Zhao Yun. They just don't want to follow Liu Bei's Yuan Cong line, and even the second generation can firmly control the army.

After Liu Bei pacified Yizhou.

Except for a few indigenous people such as Dong He and Huang Quan, they basically adopted a policy of suppression against the local wealthy families.

After a long time of patience, I finally found someone who can install a local power group, and I am definitely not willing to give up easily.

They must fight hard to oppose Zhao Tong's succession.

That's exactly what it is.

The ministers of the Yizhou faction who were not in important positions raised their hands and shouted loudly.

As for Zhao Yun on the other side, he opposed it purely out of public concern.

Deep in his heart, he was endlessly delighted with the various achievements his son had displayed in the military for more than three years.

There is no doubt about his son's talent.

However, the only worry is that entrusting the two counties to his hands so easily will double the pressure on his body and mind.

After all, Zhao Tong was still young, and the Qiang and Di tribes as well as the powerful military fronts of the Cao clan in the north were always eyeing him.

Zhao Yun was really worried that he would not be able to take charge alone!

the other side.

He was also worried that his son would inevitably suffer the jealousy of some ministers in the DPRK because he was sitting in a position at such a young age.

In particular, the local people in central Sichuan had just raised objections, and the ominous thoughts in his heart became more and more intense.

His objections were endless!

Seeing that the local scholars in central Shu who were not taken seriously were now speaking out against the situation for their own selfish interests regardless of the overall situation, Zhuge Liang's expression showed no expression on his face as he sat aside.

His eyes changed slightly, and he unconsciously became a bit fierce.

However, he did not show it in public.

After some reflection, Zhuge Liang knew that there were many people in the court who were opposed. Even if the Lord wanted to immediately announce the defense of the two counties by ordering General Zhenwei, Zhao Tong, and Governor, it would not be realistic.

Immediately, with a handsome face, he twirled the green beard on his chin, waved his fan and said softly: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, Huo Zhongmiao has been stationed in the two counties for nearly two years."

"And Atong is directly under his command."

"I think that with Huo Zhongmiao's military skills, he must be well aware of all aspects of the current situation around the two counties."

"He should have some opinions before he passes away."

"I think that the selection of the successor to the general can be put on hold for a while."

In one word.

Although Zhuge Liang didn't say it clearly in his words, the monarch and his ministers had known each other for a long time, so Liu Bei could hear the underlying meaning behind his words.

Huo Jun is very familiar with the situation around Wudu and Yinping.

Before he died, he should have left a suicide note and handed over some follow-up matters.

Although the messenger has not yet been brought out, it is definitely not missing.

I understood what Zhuge Liang meant.

Liu Bei, the king of Hanzhong, did not hesitate at all. He immediately thought that he was exhausted and had to go down and think carefully about the candidate to take over the responsibility of the governor of the two counties.

After announcing the dispersion of the dynasty.

All the ministers just stood up and dispersed one after another.

Only the advisor generals Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, Huang Quan and other confidants faltered until the end.

as expected.

Not long after Liu Bei left, a guard with a saber hanging from his waist lowered his steps and walked quietly, cupping his hands and saying softly, "Military advisor, I, under the order of the king, have come here specifically to invite you to wait for me to go to the rear hall."

As soon as these words came out, several people looked at each other and smiled.

Everyone is a smart person.

Since the king summoned me secretly, there are obviously some circumstances that are not convenient to reveal in public.

After they obeyed the order, they quietly rushed to the apse.

Inside the palace at this time.

Liu Bei, the king of Hanzhong, was at the top, reading the memorial and waiting.

Several people ran in under the leadership of the imperial guards.

He also quickly raised his hands and saluted, "I'll see you, Your Majesty!"

"Pingsheng!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Bei raised his head slightly and responded.

Immediately, Zhuge Liang, who was the backbone, had a chuckle on his face, waved his goose feather fan, and asked calmly, "The king has just sent his guards to secretly summon the ministers to the rear hall."

"I wonder if we can still focus on Huo Zhongmiao's death from illness?"

As soon as the words came out, Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and understood his heart quite well. There was a smile on his face, and then he said, "Kong Ming deserves to be Gu's loyal minister!"

"There are indeed some things that I can't tell you just now. I just want to discuss them privately with the military advisor, Xiaozhi."

"Oh? I wonder what the king is still worried about?"

"Please come and let me share your worries with you, Your Majesty!"

Fa Zheng, Huang Quan listened and said respectfully one after another with their hands raised.

Seeing that at this moment, all the confidants in the palace were already there.

Liu Bei no longer concealed anything and showed his true feelings.

His face was full of sadness and sadness.

He then faced everyone and said loudly, "Just now in the court hall, the military commander said that Zhongmiao must have something to take care of before he passes away!"

"It is recommended that Gu Xianxing put aside the selection of the governor of the second county."

As soon as he finished speaking, he showed an extremely moved expression on his face. His eyes swept across the three figures, then stopped at Zhuge Liang, and issued an edict:

"In the previous battle to pacify Yizhou, Jun led his troops to guard Baishui, an important place in the rear, and tried his best to resist Liu Zhang's counterattack by uniting with Zhang Lu of Hanzhong without losing anything!"

"So that my rear is unbreakable and I am not in a dilemma."

"Jun is a good scholar, he has made great contributions to the country, and he wants to be a noble man."

"After careful consideration, Zhongmiao's body was sent to Baishui for burial. Gu Yu personally brought hundreds of officials to the north to pay homage to show his merit."

"Kong Ming, after I leave, I'm afraid you'll have to take charge of the affairs of the court, while Gongheng will take charge of the overall situation."

Let this sentence fall slowly!

Liu Bei's face itself is very contagious.

With these sad words, even Zhuge Liang, Fazheng and others unconsciously looked sideways and shed tears.

After a while, Zhuge Liang brought Dharma to justice, and Huang Quan clasped his fists and accepted the order, saying, "Captain Huo has made outstanding contributions to our army. This move by your Majesty is a matter of course!"

"Just wait until the king feels at ease."

"Chen Dingran, Xiaozhi, and Gongheng stayed in Chengdu to make the rear area live in peace."

"What the military advisor said is true!"

"We will definitely assist the military advisors and handle the state affairs."

A series of words came to an end.

The three core ministers under his command all expressed their support for his proposition.

Since no one objected, Liu Bei's worries quickly disappeared.

Then he slowly explained to them all the matters regarding his subsequent departure.

In the following days.
