Chapter 259 Zhuge Liang Emerges from the Mountain
Xiang Yu betrayed the nobles of the six states. He colluded with the Grand Tutor Tang Yu. This is the last letter from the King of Wei.
At the time, he was not sure if Xiang Yu had stolen some of his jewelry last time, but he had already confirmed it.
So he immediately sent someone back with the letter.
Upon hearing this, the nobles from the six kingdoms exchanged glances and were terrified.
They never expected this kind of news.
However, since the person who spread these words was the King of Wei, there might be some truth to them.
So they first comforted the remaining wives and concubines of the King of Wei, and then immediately sent people to search for the whereabouts of the King of Wei and his entourage.
But to his surprise, the King of Wei seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth.
However, they had no evidence to suggest that this matter was related to Xiang Yu.
Although Xiang Yu moved, it was still the place where he originally lived.
It just so happened that the Qin soldiers needed to use it, so they simply threw it away and dismantled it all.
As for whether this was Tang Yu's order or just a coincidence, it's hard to say.
Although there was no evidence this time, they all harbored a thorn in Xiang Yu's side.
The fact that the King of Wei sent such a message was not without reason; there was a real reason behind it.
Even if Xiang Yu wasn't one of the Imperial Advisor Tang Yu's men, he was definitely not clean.
Xiang Yu had no idea that he had lost the trust of the nobles of the six states once again.
If he knew, he would definitely sigh and say it was adding insult to injury.
……
On the border of the Qin state, outside the Great Wall built by Ying Zheng.
At this moment, Fusu took off his favorite silk clothes and put on coarse cloth clothes and full armor.
He sat on the ground with a long-haired dog in his hand, eating the soup dumpling in his hand without any regard for his image.
He chewed heartily while chatting with the migrant workers next to him.
"How come you're building the Great Wall so much faster than before, and everyone seems to be working with much more enthusiasm?"
It has been almost a month since I arrived in this remote region.
He noticed that these laborers building the Great Wall seemed much more motivated than before, and their pace had also increased significantly, which piqued his curiosity.
Upon hearing this, the laborer glanced at the person in front of him.
Upon discovering that it was a Qin soldier, he loudly exclaimed, "Hey, what's the big deal? Isn't this just like any other soldier?"
"Not only have your soldiers' treatment improved, but we conscripts are also getting paid now, and we're provided with food and lodging. It's so much better than before."
"And all of this is because of Lord Tang Yu's appearance, and His Majesty's wisdom and might."
As Fusu listened to the words of the laborer in front of him, the face of Huhai appeared in his mind.
The other party seemed to be targeting me unusually from the very beginning.
Although Hu Hai originally vowed to repay his brother Fusu for the rest of his life, he still harbored some resentment towards Tang Yu.
But after hearing what the other person said, Fusu was stunned for a moment.
Then they inquired about the details, and only after asking did they realize how naive their previous ideas had been.
She was originally confined within the palace, like a flower in the deep palace, unharmed.
At the time, he thought everyone in the world was like him.
Putting everything else aside, at least having enough to eat and a place to sleep isn't a problem.
But what they didn't know was that there were so many poor and ordinary people in the world.
Thinking of his past, the ideas Zhao Gao had instilled in him, and his own crazy thoughts, Hu Hai felt a tremor in his heart.
Although he was young, he was well aware of the harm his order would cause to these ordinary people.
He suddenly looked somewhat bewildered.
At the same time, he looked at his weapon, which already had many chips and nicks, marks left from his battles with the Xiongnu.
Finally, a look of realization flashed in his eyes. So Mr. Tang really was teaching me this sense of composure.
His expression became unusually resolute, and after finishing his meal, he walked back into the tent.
Because another round of fighting is about to begin.
It's unclear when the war between the Qin state and the Xiongnu will end, but Hu Hai will certainly remain on the front lines.
He did this not for any other reason than to repay his elder brother, Fusu.
……
Back in his secluded palace, Tang Yu watched as Zhuge Liang began planting vegetables with a hoe, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
"Mr. Zhuge, what's really wrong with you?"
"Grand Preceptor, is there something inappropriate about my actions? Then I will not plant it."
Seeing Zhuge Liang plant so many vegetables, Tang Yu quickly waved his hand.
"There is nothing wrong with what you did, but it is a real pity that you have wasted your talent on this kind of dish."
Looking at Tang Yu in front of him, who seemed to want him to work overtime, Zhuge Liang shook his head.
Then he sat down and started chatting with Tang Yu.
Finally, as Zhuge Liang listened to Tang Yu's description of a world where everyone was equal, everyone had a house to live in, food to eat, water to drink, medical treatment when sick, and could spend the winter warmly and the summer coolly, a look of sudden realization appeared on his face.
"Mr. Tang Yu, does the world you're talking about really exist?"
Please answer me truthfully.
Zhuge Liang originally intended to give up after arriving in this world.
After all, in his previous life he had done everything he could and pushed his abilities to the limit, but in the end he still couldn't overcome fate.
This time, he has decided to give up.
Furthermore, his opponent was Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, to whom he had always served. As a subject of the Han Dynasty, it was indeed somewhat inappropriate for him to do such a thing.
But now, as he listened to Tang Yu's casual conversation about the world he had just described, his previously dead heart began to beat again.
His eyes shone with a fiery light as he looked at Tang Yu.
This is the world that Zhuge Liang envisioned, the world he pursued and built throughout his life.
However, he was not even sure if this world existed.
Tang Yu nodded seriously in response to Zhuge Liang's question.
“Mr. Zhuge, I will certainly not deceive you. The world I am talking about certainly exists, and it is the world I have experienced.”
"So I want to build this Great Qin into a world like that, so that every person in the world can live in peace and prosperity, and everyone can at least live a happy and joyful life."
Hearing Tang Yu's words, Zhuge Liang fell silent.
After a long silence, he opened his eyes, and a glint of light flashed in them.
In his previous life, he devoted all his efforts to the Liu family's rule, only to eventually realize that human strength could not ultimately overcome fate.
But in this life, he saw hope again.
