Pang Tong and Fazheng looked at each other and smiled, and Liu Bei said: "Yuan Shun (Lai Gong) insists on resigning as the governor of Jiaozhou. Who do you think is more suitable to go to Jiaozhou?"

Zhuge Liang handed over Zhuge Jin's letter: "My lord, please read this first."

Liu Bei took the express letter and browsed it, and then handed it to Pang Tong and Fazheng.

"Brother, what do you mean?" Liu Bei frowned.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "We'll wait until Shi Yuan and Xiao Zhi finish reading. Who would the lord of Jiaozhou prefer to govern?"

Liu Bei said: "Ziyu has been planning to Jiaozhou for a long time. I am most relieved if he goes to Jiaozhou, but judging from the changes in Jingzhou, Yunchang still needs him to stabilize Jingnan.

In addition, Jiaozhou is remote and plagued by miasma, and the scholar family has been operating there for many years. It can be managed well by ordinary people. I want Zhengfang (Li Yan) to succeed Yuan Shun (Lai Gong). I wonder what the military adviser thinks?"

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan without comment, "What does Shi Yuan think of my brother's letter?"

"Sun Quan used your brother's mouth to interfere in the appointment of Jingzhou. I think the hatred is just an excuse. The officials in Jiangdong should be afraid of Ziyu. I don't know who came up with this stupid plan..." Pang Tong shook his head.

Fa Zheng then added: "No wonder there have been many rumors in Chengdu recently, saying that General Lan has a heavy army and has a disobedient heart. I haven't had time to report this matter to the lord. Now it seems that it was not the work of Cao's thieves, but the work of Sun Quan's people."

..."

Lan Tian deliberately alienated the nobles in Lingling, which made the nobles in Jingzhou and Yizhou almost unfavorable. However, Liu Bei's core members all had a good relationship with him, otherwise such rumors would have made people panic, instead of being effectively controlled by Fazheng.

Liu Bei smiled and said: "Sun Quan is really a villain in vain. Lan Ziyu has the talent to save the world. If he had abandoned Bei and gone to Cao Cao, I'm afraid there would be no Chibi later, let alone the three pillars of the present. If he was really ambitious, he would have replaced Lu Bu long ago.

He became a dominating prince."

Zhuge Liang nodded, "My lord, what you said is true. Before Liang was born in the cottage, he knew all the heroes in the world, but Ziyu was out of sight. Before Cheng Pu died, he called him Owl. My brother said that the ministers in Jiangdong used this title to refer to him. This shows that Sun Quan

Fear of him."

"Although Owl is ferocious, it obviously has a derogatory meaning. It is very indecent to use this as a nickname. My lord, why don't you change it for Ziyu?" Pang Tong suggested.

Liu Bei immediately became interested. Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong both had resounding slogans. Now that Sun Quan was the first to give Lantian a nickname, it was necessary for him to make an official correction.

"Military advisors have learned from ancient times to the present, what suggestions do you have?" Liu Bei turned to look at Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang put the feather fan against his nose and pondered. After a while, he shook his head and said: "Although the owl is an ominous thing today, it was loved and worshiped by the people in the Shang Dynasty. The poem goes, 'The black bird of destiny descended and gave birth to Shang.'

It seems to be an owl, and using the owl as its nickname is a bit more ferocious, but it also means extraordinary, so is it really necessary to change it?"

Liu Bei muttered in a low voice: "In the past, Yuan Zhi recommended Wolong, and later Ziyu recommended Fengxiao. Now the people of Jiangdong give Ziyu a nickname. Shi Yuan and Kong Ming both made sense..."

"Lord, it seems that you have gained something?" Fazheng asked curiously.

Liu Bei nodded, "The mysterious bird of destiny descended and gave birth to Shang. Shang named the owl as the mysterious bird. Bei also named Xuande, so how about calling Ziyu the mysterious owl?"

Zhuge Liang was shocked when he heard this: "The difference of one word can make a difference of a thousand miles. The mysterious owl is a hundred times better than the owl. My Lord, this move is like turning stone into gold."

Zhuge Liang rarely flatters others. Liu Bei was very impressed by this. Like a child being praised, he asked with some pride: "Is Xuan Owl really an elegant nickname?"

Zhuge Liang nodded: "The name Xuan Owl has two meanings. One is the black bird of Shang in the Book of Songs, and the other is the first of the twelve stars."

The Book of Songs is catchy to everyone, but the knowledge of stargazing is relatively unpopular. Even Pang Tong and Fazheng could only watch Zhuge Liang perform.

Liu Bei asked curiously: "What are the twelve stars?"

Zhuge Liang put down his feather fan, dipped his hand in water and drew a circle on the table, and then gave everyone a popular science guide: "The star official divided the stars in the sky into four categories according to the southeast, northwest and northwest, with twelve star subdivisions and twenty-eight constellations.

The first among the twelve stars is Xuan Owl, which corresponds to the three stars of female, virtual and dangerous."

"Then what?" Liu Bei scratched his head and expressed confusion.

"Nvsu and Xusu are the divisions of Qi State, which is the current boundary of Qingzhou. Weisu belongs to the division of Wei State, which is the current boundary of Bingzhou. Xiaopei where Ziyu is located is adjacent to Qingzhou, and his wife, Lu, was born in Bingzhou, so Xuanzhou

Isn't it a coincidence that the owl is the signal?" Zhuge Liang replied meaningfully.

Although Liu Bei didn't understand much, he was shocked after hearing it. He clapped his hands and said: "It's so good. Kong Ming Wo Long, Shi Yuan Feng Chu, Zi Yu Xuan Owl, but filial piety..."

"Uh...I don't have to..." Fazheng felt that he had met the Master and no longer needed to attract others' attention with Taoist slogans.

Seeing Fazheng's embarrassed look, Pang Tong followed up and said: "There is no need to ask for a Taoist name deliberately. Xiaozhi can be left to future generations to comment. Doesn't Yuanzhi also not have a Taoist title?"

"What Shi Yuan said is true." Fazheng nodded happily.

Liu Bei then smiled heartily and said: "From now on, we can openly and openly call Mr. Xuan Owl, unlike those in Jiangdong who secretly and maliciously slander us. What do you think about Zhuge Ziyu's suggestion?"

"Mr. Xuan Owl has been planning for many years. It is better to let him take over Jiaozhou. He can just respond to Jiangdong's suggestion and save Sun Quan from making trouble like Jiang Xia did with excuses." Pang Tong suggested.

"How can we fall into the trap of Jiangdong? Without Ziyu to deal with it in Jingnan, even if Yun Chang and Yuan Zhi have the power of heaven, they will not be able to solve it so satisfactorily. With him assisting me in Jingzhou, I can feel at ease. Ziyu is because of Jiaozhou's products

It is fertile and the climate is suitable. He just wants to improve grain varieties in Jiaozhou..." Liu Bei shook his head quickly.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Not only does Ziyu like Jiaozhou, it seems that Yide also misses Jiaozhou."

"The military advisor is talking about oysters? Is that thing really so delicious? Let's get down to business. Is there any way to have both?" Liu Bei didn't have a chance to taste it, so he didn't want to comment on Zhang Fei's preference. Anyway, what Lan Tian made should be good, but not

I know how amazing it will be.

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan slightly, "Hasn't my lord already become the lord of Jingzhou before he takes over Jingzhou Muqian? We don't need to stick to formalities at all. Anyway, Jingnan borders Jiaozhou. Even if Ziyu is transferred to take over Jiaozhou, wouldn't it be enough to let him manage Jingnan?

Already?"

"Well... Now that there are Yulin and Cangwu in Jiaozhou, plus the four counties in Jingnan, Ziyu will probably be too busy, and the span from north to south is really too big. Now Jiangxia has fallen into the hands of Sun Quan, leaving Yun Chang and

It's not appropriate for Yuan Zhi to only guard Nanjun..." Liu Bei was startled when he heard this, and thought to himself that if he really did this, wouldn't it mean that drought will lead to drought and waterlogging will lead to death?

Zhuge Liang continued to explain: "That is also very easy to handle. Let Ziyu be in charge of Lingling County, or add Guiyang County. On the surface, he is the governor of Jiaozhou, but in fact he maintains close contact with Jingzhou. Sun Zhongmou may burst into tears when he finds out.
