Three Kingdoms: Heir of Wolong, my father-in-law is Guan Gong

Chapter 40 Zhuge Qiao is gearing up, times have changed

"What did you say?" Pan Jun obviously didn't know until now that Pan Zhu met Zhuge Qiao in private.

Seeing Pan Jun's reaction, Zhuge Qiao suddenly made a guess in his mind: "So you don't know about Pan Zhizhong?"

"Why do you think I joined forces with Governor Mi and General Anhan to impeach you? It's because Brother Wenlong came to me to stir up trouble on the second day after I entered Jiangling City!"

"I always thought that it was Pan Zhizhong who was instigating you behind the scenes. Otherwise, how could Brother Wenlong have the guts to come in front of me and stir up trouble?"

Pan Jun's eyes suddenly widened and he stared at Zhuge Qiao in disbelief: "Wen Long has been looking for you in private? And is he stirring up trouble? Why didn't I know?"

Zhuge Qiao's smile became more sincere: "Whether it is true or not, Pan Zhizhong can go back and ask Brother Wenlong whether it was me who framed the situation for no reason, or Brother Wenlong who stirred up trouble. Pan Zhizhong will know as soon as he asks."

"It's just that I don't think Brother Wenlong has the courage to stir up trouble in front of me."

"Pan Zhizhong, if you feel dissatisfied, you can go to Xichuan and explain to General Zuo yourself."

Pan Jun's face turned red instantly.

Zhuge Qiao's seemingly sincere words were like hiding a sharp ring-headed knife, cutting into Pan Jun's heart every word.

Without Pan Jun's instigation, Pan Zhu would dare to stir up trouble?

Whether it was you Pan Jun who instigated it or Pan Zhu who was good at making opinions, you, Pan Jun, will have to shoulder the blame for sowing discord!
  Feeling the strange looks from around him, Pan Jun no longer had the shame to stay here.

But before leaving, Pan Jun looked at Zhuge Qiao with an evil look again: "Zhuge Qiao, I underestimated you. Don't think that just because you transferred me away from Jingzhou, you can collude with Mi Zi Fang Hang."

"Ma Jichang, take a good look at the young man in front of you. This is not a dull boy! If you don't want to end up like me, then think carefully about how to treat this Jingzhou Zhizhong."

Ma Liang, who was watching the show quietly, did not expect that Pan Jun would suddenly point the finger at him.

But Ma Liang had a gentle personality and just gave a faint salute: "Thank you, brother Chengming, for the reminder. I will pay attention to it."

After Pan Jun left, Mi Fang couldn't bear it any longer: "Brother, Pan Chengming has a small mind. If he leaves with a grudge today, he will do bad things in the future. It's better to charge Pan Jun with humiliating the lord and escort him to Xichuan."

Mi Zhu shook his head gently: "Zifang, let's end this matter here. Judging from Pan Jun's reaction just now, he may really not know that Pan Zhu is stirring up trouble in private."

Having said this, Mi Zhu looked at Zhuge Qiao with a more thoughtful look.

Obviously.

Mi Zhu had already guessed that Zhuge Qiao was adding fuel to the flames in this matter.

"Acho did it on purpose."

"Pan Zhu's little thoughts must be hidden from A Qiao."

"But Aqiao still chose to transfer Pan Jun away from Jingzhou because Pan Zhu was stirring up trouble in private."

"Including Zifang and I, everyone was deceived by Aqiao's disguise."

"Zifang probably figured it out a long time ago, but he still pretended not to understand and cooperated with Aqiao in this play."

Mi Zhu looked at Mi Fang again.

Mi Zhu couldn't understand the recent frequent exchanges between Zhuge Qiao and Mi Fang in private.

Pan Jun just said something that even Mi Zhu didn't know.

"Ah Qiao, Zifang, are you really selling arms to barbarian merchants?" Mi Zhu's tone became more authoritative.

Ma Liang's eyes were also filled with surprise.

When Pan Jun shouted these words just now, Ma Liang only thought that Pan Jun was quarreling with Mi Fang and was suspected of being framed.

But Mi Zhu also asked this question, so the matter was not simple. Mi Fang did not speak, but looked at Zhuge Qiao.

Mi Fang cannot talk about this matter. If she does, Mi Fang will be punished by Mi Zhu when she returns home.

"General Mi, don't worry about it. Your Majesty also knows about this matter." Zhuge Qiao said calmly, exposing the matter of reselling arms.

"The prince also knows?" Mi Zhu and Ma Liang were both surprised.

Both of them were smart, and they quickly figured out the deeper meaning.

If Guan Yu also knew about the ordnance reselling, then Pan Jun really deserved to be transferred this time.

"Pan Chengming will definitely expose this matter if he is angry. Ah Qiao, do you need me to come forward?" Mi Zhu asked in a solemn voice.

Zhuge Qiao raised his lips and said, "The governor of Nanjun and the eldest son of the military advisor general Han are collaborating to resell ordnance. There is no need to hide this matter."

"Let outsiders see me this way. My bad reputation in Jiangling City is as bad as this one."

Hearing this, Mi Zhu smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Ma Liang had just arrived and was a little confused: "Mr. Qiao, what's going on now?"

"I'll understand after Ma Zhizhong. Let's get down to business. Does my father have an explanation?" Zhuge Qiao asked without answering.

Ma Liang took out Zhuge Liang's letter from his arms: "The military advisor has a reply."

Zhuge Qiao opened the letter, glanced at it quickly, and couldn't help but feel joy in his heart: "General Zuo is quite generous. Zong Yu, Deng Zhi, Fu Wei, and Wang Ping are all the backbone generals in the army. "

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Ma Chao are all generals under Liu Bei, but these generals are not young; Zong Yu, Deng Zhi, Fu Wei, Wang Ping, as well as Wei Yan, Feng Xi, Zhang Nan, Deng Fang, Fu Kuang, Gao Xiang, etc. are all outstanding figures among the younger generation.

Liu Bei sent four at once, which undoubtedly gave Zhuge Qiao great convenience in doing things in Jingzhou.

Although these four generals only have 20 close followers, it is enough to restrain the local army in Jingzhou.

"Father, do you have anything else to say?" Zhuge Qiao put the letter away and asked again.

Ma Liang cupped his hands and said: "The military advisor said that although I replaced Pan Jun as the governor of Jingzhou, I should consider Aqiao's proposal more when I act."

Hearing what Ma Liang said, Mi Fang's eyes were surprised.

Ma Liang was transferred to Zhizhong, so he actually had to consider Zhuge Qiao's proposal?

Ma Liang has always regarded Zhuge Liang as his brother, so this subtext is equivalent to asking Ma Liang to obey Zhuge Qiao's orders!
  Thinking of Liu Bei's upcoming succession as King of Hanzhong, and thinking of Zhuge Qiao's performance in Jiangling City during these days, Mi Fang suddenly had an idea in her heart.

"Ah Qiao, are you really at odds with Junhou?" Mi Fang asked what she had been holding in her heart for a long time.

In fact, Mi Fang had such a suspicion when she entrusted the barbarian business to Zhuge Qiao, but it was difficult to ask Zhuge Qiao directly.

Mi Fang didn't think Zhuge Qiao would admit it.

But today, seeing Ma Liang's submissive attitude towards Zhuge Qiao, Mi Fang couldn't help but doubt again.

Seeing this, Zhuge Qiao said cryptically: "Prefect Mi, you are a smart man, why do you need to ask so clearly? No matter how I say it, you will be the biggest beneficiary of my coming to Jiangling City."

Mi Fang was shocked: Sure enough, I was also deceived by Zhuge Qiao's disguise.

"Ah Qiao, I think you should tell me your purpose." Mi Fang's tone became more solemn.
