Chapter 185 The long-awaited Zhuge Kongming finally appears!!!
After Liu Bei heard Xu Shu's words, he immediately prepared gifts and went to find Zhuge Liang. Sima Hui, the Water Mirror Master, came to see Liu Bei. Liu Bei took the opportunity to ask Zhuge Liang. Sima Hui bluntly said that this man was on par with Guan Zhong and Yue Yi, and was also like Jiang Ziya who founded the Zhou Dynasty for 800 years and Zhang Zifang who founded the Han Dynasty for 400 years. After Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard this, their expressions were all stunned!
Before leaving, Sima Hui shook his head and walked forward: "Although Sleeping Dragon has found his master, he is not in the right time. What a pity, what a pity!"
...
Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei rode to Longzhong to look for Zhuge Liang.
When they walked to a field, they heard a farmer singing. Liu Bei pulled the reins and stopped, thinking: "This ballad reflects the vicissitudes of life. I wonder who wrote it?"
The farmer told them that it was written by Mr. Wolong, and told Liu Bei and others where Wolong lived.
Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came to Wolonggang.
A boy asked, "Who is knocking at the door?"
Liu Bei bowed and said, "I am the Left General of Han, Marquis of Yicheng, Governor of Yuzhou, and the Emperor's uncle. I have come to see Mr. Zhuge."
The boy replied impatiently: "Stop talking too much. I can't remember all these names."
Liu Bei had no choice but to say, "Just say that Liu Bei wants to see you."
...
Knowing that Mr. Wolong had already left, Liu Bei was very sad and had to leave with the gift. On the way, he met Zhuge Liang's friend Cui Zhouping, talked with him, and invited him to Xinye for a gathering, but was rejected.
It was a cold winter day. Liu Bei and his three brothers rode their horses in the heavy snow on the way to Wolonggang. Liu Bei looked at the heavy snow and sighed: "Alas! Without a wise and sage to plan and strategize, how can we keep the world in peace by just fighting?" Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were traveling with them, also sighed deeply. When Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei finally arrived at the thatched cottage, Zhang Fei dismounted and shouted towards the cottage: "Kong Ming! Kong Ming! Are you home?!"
But Zhuge Jun told Liu Bei that his brother had gone out to look for Cui Zhouping. Liu Bei found paper and pen and wrote a letter to Zhuge Jun and asked him to give it to Zhuge Liang.
Zhang Fei wanted to tie up Zhuge Liang and bring him to Liu Bei, but Liu Bei rebuked him. Four days later, Liu Bei asked to see Zhuge Liang for the third time. Zhuge Liang was taking a nap on the couch, while Liu Bei waited outside. Zhuge Liang was touched by Liu Bei's sincerity and invited him to have a long talk.
"A true man should be a genius in the world, how can he grow old in the mountains and rivers..."
"The Han Dynasty is in decline, treacherous ministers are in power, and I am not prepared to measure my own strength. I want to spread justice to the world..."
"...Cao Cao now has millions of troops...Sun Quan controls Jiangdong...Jingzhou controls Hanmian in the north...then the great cause can be accomplished and the Han Dynasty can be revived..."
"If you want to achieve hegemony, let Cao Cao take advantage of the weather in the north, let Sun Quan take advantage of the terrain in the south, and you can take advantage of the people!"
"In order to realize the general's ambition, Liang is willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses!"
Zhuge Liang proposed the idea of dividing the world into three parts. Liu Bei suddenly realized it and set the goal of taking Jingzhou first and then Yizhou.
Liu Bei got Zhuge Liang and trained his troops in Xinye City to prepare for resistance against Cao Cao. On the other hand, Cao Cao was planning to raise a million troops to seize Jingzhou and attack Sun Quan.
＜Hahaha, Mr. Shuijing’s words stunned the three brothers [covering their faces]＞
＜Zhuge Liang is known as "the unrivaled scholar since the Han Dynasty, the best since the Three Dynasties!"＞
＜Beibei has made up his mind. Even if it is difficult to get Kong Ming, he will get him!＞
＜Mr. Shuijing is really a prophet. Liu Bei was a benevolent ruler, but it was too late for him to really make his fortune. Zhuge Liang was a great talent, but he met Liu Bei too late [sigh]＞
＜The coolest boy in history is online [dog head]＞
＜Kong Ming was most likely testing Liu Bei’s desire to recruit talented people [eating melon]＞
＜From then on, everyone Liu Bei saw looked like Wolong, hahaha＞
＜From Liangliang's Thousand-Layered Routine＞
＜It turns out that he is Wolong’s younger brother＞
＜Fei Fei is planning to capture Liang Liang alive, hahaha＞
＜Liu Qi: I am the only one in the entire Three Kingdoms who can capture Zhuge Kongming [covering face]＞
＜Zhuge Liang’s last peaceful sleep＞
＜It was because I was moved by Liu Huangshu’s sincerity that I decided to come out of retirement, even though I knew it was wrong.＞
＜In order to achieve the general's ambition, Liang is willing to serve as a dog and horse. I will do my best and die for you.＞
＜The Prime Minister never came back...＞
＜Prime Minister Zhuge Liang shouldered the burden of Han Xin, Xiao He, and Zhang Liang [sigh]＞
[Emperor Gaozu of Han Liu Bang: Alas...]
[In the eighth year of Emperor Gaozu of Han, Prime Minister Xiao He: Alas...]
[In the eighth year of Emperor Gaozu of Han, Zhang Liang, Marquis of Liu: Alas...]
[In the eighth year of Emperor Gaozu of Han, Han Xin, Marquis of Huaiyin: He did so many things by himself?!]
Liu Bang, who knew that the Han Dynasty would last for 400 years, had no regrets long ago. However, what is most touching in the troubled times is not the ambitious people like Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, but this kind of ideal of living in the face of death, doing it even though he knows it is impossible... What's more, this person is a descendant of the Han Dynasty.
"Alas, Liu Bei still hasn't learned the essence of my teachings!" Liu Bang sighed, feeling particularly sorry.
Han Xin watched the screen alone in his Chang'an residence, sighing silently. He couldn't help but think of himself from Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang.
Xiao He was busy with his work and was deeply shocked by the sentence "Devote all his energy to the cause and do not stop until his death". He worked hard all his life to repay the kindness of his benefactor.
Zhuge Liang knew the situation in the world very well. He would not have thought how difficult it would be to follow Liu Bei, but he still went. Zhang Liang also thought of the Wuhou Temple in Chengdu that was played in front of the screen. It was worshipped and revered by later generations. No wonder he was praised as "the unparalleled scholar since the Han Dynasty and the first person since the Three Dynasties".
[Tang Taizong Li Shimin: Zhuge Wuhou is indeed a man of extraordinary talent]
It has to be said that ministers like Zhuge Liang were very much loved by the emperor. He was a prime minister with great power, but he was not like Cao Cao and Sima Yi. This was even more rare in that era when powerful ministers were in power and could usurp the throne at will.
Li Shimin sincerely hopes that Ji Han, who is on the light curtain, will succeed.
[Twenty-fourth year of Kaiyuan in Tang Dynasty, Du Fu: Zhuge Liang's great name is known throughout the universe... a feather in the clouds of eternity. Yi and Lu are on equal terms... the fate of the Han Dynasty has changed and it will never be restored. I am determined to kill myself in military affairs.]
After Li Bai and Du Fu met in Chang'an, they agreed to leave Chang'an together to see the Tang Dynasty. On the way, they met Gao Shi, and the three of them went to Hebei together.
"Prime Minister Zhuge met a wise ruler and finally took revenge. We...sigh." Gao Shi was somewhat disappointed with Li Longji, the current emperor of the Tang Dynasty. It had been a year since the light curtain appeared, but how much had this saint of the Tang Dynasty changed?
Li Bai was heartbroken by Chang'an. He entered the palace with great expectations, but Li Longji did not use his talent! "Is the An-Shi Rebellion just because of the evil ambitions of An Lushan and Shi Siming?"
They understood from the light curtain that whether the Tang Dynasty was prosperous or not depended on the lives of the people under their rule. During this period of time, they traveled outside for the sake of sightseeing, but more for the sake of worrying about the country and the people, and wanted to find the shortcomings of the Tang Dynasty.
What Du Fu saw along the way made him feel a sense of anxiety in his heart.

The Second Year of Zhangwu in the Later Han Dynasty
成都
"Hahaha, if I had known that Kong Ming would be loved by future generations, this display is really enviable!"
Liu Bei has been in high spirits these days, not only does he have a bright future, but he is also managing Liangzhou.
"If it weren't for Kong Ming, there wouldn't be where we are today." After saying this, Liu Bei felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
Although Zhao Yun did not follow Liu Bei from the beginning, after he joined his lord, as Guangmu said, he went through repeated failures and finally had a strategist who knew the general direction of supporting the Han Dynasty. Looking back on it, it was not an easy journey.
"Our future is coming soon." Liu Bei, who was looking forward to it, held Zhao Yun's hand.
At this time, a servant reported a piece of news. Liu Bei was very happy to hear it and went with Zhao Yun.
Zhuge Liang, who was working in the office, took the time to look at the screen. Seeing that it still did not reveal anything about the future, he continued to work at his desk.
Jiang Wan wanted to persuade the Prime Minister to take a rest. Since the Prime Minister appeared in the light curtain and knew the future, he seemed to be full of worries every day and was very tense. Jiang Wan was afraid that if the Prime Minister continued like this, he would get sick from overwork.
What's more, the sentence "I am determined to sacrifice my life for military service!" was said in the light curtain. We must not let the Prime Minister continue to suffer like this.
On the other hand, the news that the great doctor Hua Tuo had arrived in Chengdu quickly spread everywhere!!!
...
Eastern Han Dynasty, the fifth year of Jian'an
At first, Cao Cao's advisers were stunned by Sima Hui's words on the screen that Zhuge Liang was on par with Guan Zhong, Yue Yi, Jiang Ziya, and Zhang Zifang.
"This person is so arrogant!"
"He is just a country bumpkin. He has no chance of reviving the Han Dynasty. Why do later generations think so highly of him?!"
"He is the best scholar since the Han Dynasty, and the best since the Three Dynasties! He is praised too highly."
...
As Cao Cao listened to the discussion of his advisers below, he had even higher expectations for Zhuge Liang.
What is so special about a loser that makes him admired by later generations? If Zhuge Liang is really as Guangmu said, then Liu Bei should not be allowed to have such a talent now.
Let’s see, does he really live up to his reputation?
