Early the next morning, Zhuge Liang got up, washed up, and rushed to the prime minister's mansion in the city to start a busy day of official duties. At this moment, Wei Ba was lying on the bed and slept soundly. Yesterday, he thought about things and went to bed in the middle of the night, so he got up late today. It was not until the bell rushed in that he opened his eyes in a daze.

"What's up?"

"Young Master, it's not that I'm talking about you. After returning to Chengdu, you're a little greedy for alcohol and sex. I got up late yesterday and got up even later today. If you continue like this, you might as well cancel your morning exercise in the future and let us have a good night's sleep."

Looking at the bell that was talking like a machine gun, Wei Ba looked confused: "It's dawn? Why is it still dark outside?"

"It's cloudy today." Bell pouted.

"Oh." Wei Ba responded, stood up, Xiahou Hui happened to walk in, glaring at the bell. "You know how to practice boxing, but don't you know that your husband has a lot of things? You said you were practicing boxing with him. In my opinion, you asked him to accompany you to practice boxing."

"Girl, you can't say that..." Lingling licked her lips, suddenly felt a little weird, and suddenly blushed: "Girl, he is your husband, not my husband, you can't mess it up."

"Not now, no matter who you are, sooner or later, will you have to?" Xiahou Hui lowered his face: "Lingling, no matter whose woman you were before, since you have become my maid, you can't help you. Your husband can spoil you, but you can't forget your identity. As long as your husband doesn't say for a day that he can be betrothed you to others, you are his roommate, he is your husband, remember?"

The bell's raised eyebrows drooped, he responded honestly, turned around and ran away as if he was running away.

Wei Ba smacked his lips and said nothing. Although he had no idea to collect the bell into the room, Xiahou Hui had to set rules, but he could not stop him, otherwise these housework would be messed up in the future. According to the current customs, if he did not speak, the bell would naturally become his concubine, without a status, just a tool to vent his desires. If he gave birth to a son and a half daughter, he would have a life support in the future. That's all. If he was willing to let the bell choose his husband, it was his right and his gift, but it was not something that the bell could demand on his own initiative, nor was it natural.

"You can't fish for three days when practicing martial arts. I'll get up after two days of drying the net." Wei Ba rubbed his eyes, sat up, got out of bed, spread his arms, and stretched his big waist.

Xiahou Hui took the clothes and helped him put them on. While tying his belt, he said, "Husband, you should be kind and powerful to his subordinates, so you should not be too indulgent. People's hearts are easy to let go but difficult to accept. The subordinates are favored and become petty, so how can they be controlled in the future? You can tolerate it, what will others think?"

"Well, I understand." Wei Ba responded and stepped out of the door. Dunwu and Ding Feng were waiting in the yard, but he could not see the figure of the bell. I don't know where the girl went. Wei Ba looked at Ding Feng, and Ding Feng smiled knowingly and said, "Don't worry, Young Master, Miss Bell is not in trouble."

Wei Ba was relieved, moved his body and began to practice martial arts. He practiced his fists, swordsmanship, and spears one by one. Yesterday he fought with Guan Feng. Although he was just demonstrating and did not give his all, it was a fact that the spears were broken by Guan Feng. The round force he learned from the wheels and clouds was very successful in the application of fists and feet, but the application of spears was still too far away. If you want to fight on the battlefield in the future, hard practice is essential.

Dunwu and Ding Feng are both good at martial arts, but they have no special skills in spear techniques, but their speed and strength are stronger than ordinary people. Wei Ba cannot learn much from them, so if he wants to further his studies, he naturally has to find another way. The best candidate for his study is of course his master Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun has not come back in Guanzhong, but his eldest son Zhao Tong is in Chengdu and is serving as the Hu Ben Zhonglang under Xiang Chong.

Wei Ba decided to visit this senior brother as soon as possible and contact Xiang Chong. Whether or not to obey Zhuge Liang's arrangements, it is imperative to establish your own connections. After all, destiny is safest in his own hands.

After breakfast, Wei Ba continued to visit friends. Before leaving, he went to Mrs. Zhang's small building as usual to pay his respects. Perhaps he had been to the banquet yesterday and maybe he was too excited yesterday and did not sleep well. Mrs. Zhang looked a little tired and her eyes were swollen. After Wei Ba came in, she sat silently in front of the window, looking at the clumps of Hsinchu outside the window that had just reached the branches and leaves under the window.

"Madam, the young master is here." Seeing that Mrs. Zhang had not moved for a long time, Huan'er quickly reminded her. Mrs. Zhang said "Oh", then she came to her senses and quickly smiled: "Ziyu, I slept so late yesterday, and I woke up so early today?"

Wei Ba knew that although Mrs. Zhang’s small building was not very tall, she could see his courtyard clearly. Listening to Mrs. Zhang’s words, she probably saw him not only practicing martial arts in the morning, but also seeing him meditating last night. He smiled and said, “My mother can do it, of course I should do it even more.”

Mrs. Zhang looked at him with a smile on her lips: "Ziyu, what were you thinking last night?"

"I'm thinking about the future of the Wei family."

"The future of the Wei family?" Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "What did you think of? Let's hear it?" Mrs. Zhang said, signaling Huan'er to take the seat and let Wei Ba and Xiahou Hui sit down. "I happened to have some questions, so I will discuss it together."

"Here." Wei Ba sat upright and held his knees with both hands: "Yesterday the Prime Minister mentioned the reward with me, saying that it was because of Sun Quan's dissatisfaction, and my military achievements might have to be temporarily suspended. I want to spend more time at home to do something for my mother. I just don't know what her mother meant."

"What do I mean?"

"Yes, I mentioned it slightly to my mother yesterday. If my mother still wants to follow the Prime Minister's wife to pick mulberry and raising silkworms, then there is no need to worry. It is a rule of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If my mother wants to make some changes, I want to make some adjustments to the staff at home."

Wei Ba said his thoughts. The Wei family built a family with martial arts, and the martial arts were the foundation of the Wei family. The most urgent task was not to raise silkworms, but to train more martial arts as soon as possible to supplement the losses. His father Wei Yan won a great victory in Guanzhong and his brother Wei Feng made contributions in Xiangyang. They all assigned some prisoners. These people had a certain foundation and were relatively easy to train, but it only took some time to integrate into the Wei family. The younger generation in the Wei family's army had not yet grown up. At least it would take several years to truly enter the battlefield. Wei Ba wanted to use this time to train these people, not only to train martial arts like before, but also to pick out some people from them to teach military tactics.

This is no longer purely a training of a military soldier, but a prototype of a military academy. More than two years of war have proved that the Wei family not only needs powerful soldiers, but also needs a general who can command these soldiers. A general who only knows how to kill but does not know how to arrange troops, even if his martial arts are so sophisticated, can never stand alone.

This requires teaching them to read and read and teach them military tactics. No one in the Wei family had thought about this before. Although Wei Yanren was well-versed in the military tactics, he had no time. Mrs. Zhang had knowledge, but she did not have such clever knowledge. Wei Ba came from later generations, of course he knew the benefits of military academy. He once suggested to Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang didn't take it seriously. Now he has time and energy. Of course, he hopes to establish a military academy within the Wei family.

If this military academy was established by him, the trained generals and military servants would have a natural sense of obedience to him. The reason why he asked Mrs. Zhang for advice was also considered, otherwise Mrs. Zhang would probably think that he wanted to seize power.

He knew very well. In Mrs. Zhang's mind, everything in the Wei family belongs to his brother Wei Feng. If he had bad intentions, Mrs. Zhang would immediately turn against him. He would not want to cause internal strife before the foreign enemy was cleared.

Mrs. Zhang is a smart person. She immediately understood what Wei Ba meant and hesitated for a while before saying, "Ziyu, do you know? When you were discussing with the Prime Minister yesterday, the Prime Minister's wife also said something to me." She glanced at Xiahou Hui: "Yuanrong should have told you, right?"

Wei Ba shook his head in surprise and looked back at Xiahou Hui. Xiahou Hui bowed and said, "Mother, this matter is of great importance. I am afraid that I can't persuade him, so my mother will tell him."

Mrs. Zhang's eyes flashed, a little surprised. However, she could tell from Wei Ba's expression that Xiahou Hui did not lie.

"That's right, let me tell you." Mrs. Zhang smiled and said what Huang Yueying conveyed yesterday.

Zhuge Liang told Wei Ba that because of Sun Quan's attitude, he could not reward his military merits for the time being, and could only use other methods to compensate him. However, he did not say how to compensate, and Wei Ba had never been asked. Now when Mrs. Zhang said that, he realized that Zhuge Liang's compensation was not aimed at him personally, but at the entire Wei family.

Because of Guanzhong's military merits, Wei Yan had been promoted to General of Zhenbei, and his title was promoted to Marquis of Nanzheng, and his fief was increased to 1,200 households. This time, Wei Feng also made contributions in Xiangyang. Although he failed to kill Cao Rui, his morale also increased. However, his military merits were not enough to be a marquis, and he was only enough to promote his military position from the lieutenant to the Central Army General, and at the same level as Zongyu. Now, in order to compensate Wei Ba, Zhuge Liang decided to add Wei Feng, and he was appointed as a miscellaneous general, and was awarded the title of Xu Jue of Guannei, because Wei Feng, as the highest accuser of attacking Cao's camp, shocked the enemy's courage and promoted our country's power. This seemed to be transferring the credit that originally belonged to Ma Su to Wei Feng, but in fact, he transferred the credit of Wei Ba to Wei Feng.

For the Wei family, this is a very fair thing. It is better to concentrate on one person's head than to divide the credits into two people, so that Wei Feng can be granted the title. But for Wei Ba, this is an extremely unfair thing, because his credit is obviously greater than that of Wei Feng. Wei Feng has the opportunity to inherit the title. If you want to give it, it should be Wei Feng who gives it to him. Why do you want him to give it to Wei Feng in reverse just for a Guannei Marquis who has no fief?

However, in this case, Wei Bagen could not say to Mrs. Zhang, otherwise he would have been unfilial and unkindly unwilling to suffer any grievances for his family or for his brother.

"The Prime Minister's wife also said that if you have no objection, the Prime Minister is willing to come forward and find a good marriage for your brother." Mrs. Zhang said with some shame: "The reason why I am moved is because of this. You also know that Afeng is already at the age of getting married, but he has never had a suitable family. It is a rare opportunity for the Prime Minister to be willing to help."

She looked at Wei Ba, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you. After all, you have made the most contribution this time and you shouldn't be so wronged."

Wei Ba cursed Zhuge Liang in his heart, but he couldn't show any displeasure on his face. He thought for a moment and then smiled happily: "Mother, why is this wronged? If I could exchange a good marriage for Brother, I would be willing to do anything, let alone some military achievements. I just don't know which girl the Prime Minister's wife is talking about?"
