Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 487 Regaining the Way of a Gentleman

Ma Su felt extremely unhappy that the opportunity to commit suicide was taken away. After the decision was made, Ma Su's face didn't look very good.

All this was seen by Li Mu. After the generals left, he looked at Ma Su and asked lightly.

"Is your Majesty still angry about what someone did to dissuade you just now?"

"No……"

"Shijun's face was so gloomy that he was almost dripping water. He was not angry yet." Li Mu rolled his eyes, snorted and glanced at Ma Su.

"After all these years, you really haven't changed at all, Shijun. You are still as militant as ever!"

"Isn't this right? A general who doesn't charge on the front line is unqualified!" Ma Su replied subconsciously, but was immediately choked back by Li Mu.

"You still know that you are unqualified? Then do you know that in addition to being a general, you are also a gentleman!"

"Who told me about the gentleman's way in Longxi County and said that he would die to save all the people? But you left me behind in Longxi and went to fight on your own. Where is your gentleman's way!"

What Li Mu said made Ma Su shrink his head subconsciously, and he realized why his old partner was so angry.

It was he who deceived Li Muxing into a gentleman and suppressed the gentry for the common people. As a result, because he has been fighting in the past few years and Zhuge Liang personally did it, he almost forgot about it.

And the most important thing is that the aristocratic family cannot be completely eradicated, otherwise the knowledge will be lost. Ma Su obviously didn't know how to handle this, so he hasn't been involved in government affairs for four years.

As for Li Mu, he really abides by the way of a gentleman and restrains himself as agreed with Ma Su. From the governor of Longxi to the governor of Jincheng, and then to the governor of Yongzhou, he worked tirelessly for several years just to fulfill his old promise.

So in the current situation, he obviously let Li Mu's pigeon go. This makes Li Mu so... rational.

"Ahem...Ziwen, please calm down, don't I have something important to do? I have to..."

"The most important thing is that even if some barbarians in the north cause trouble, you have to deal with it yourself?" Li Mu made Ma Su speechless with one sentence.

However, Li Mu's words also reminded Ma Su that he seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding. Because of Liu Chan's constant trust, Ma Di always believed that death could only be achieved on the battlefield.

But Li Mu's current words reminded Ma Di of his past events in Longxi. I remembered that although he was now favored in the court, he might not be able to completely intimidate all the wealthy families.

If they really come across the death line of some wealthy families, they may not have the courage to die with them.

"I was really confused before. Why do I have to stick to a field that Heavenly Dao can't afford." Ma Su put his hand on his forehead and almost died of his own stupidity.

As for the way to commit suicide, isn't there a ready-made way? The relocation of Yizhou's wealthy families requires land exchange, and Yizhou itself needs a complete clearing of land. For Ma Su, this chance of committing suicide is much greater than going to the north to bully the barbarians.

"What Ziwen said is true. I have violated the rules of a gentleman these years! I admit my mistake!" Ma Di thought of this, immediately cupped his hands, and apologized to Li Mu humbly.

"I will go to the Prime Minister and ask for permission to go to Yizhou to supervise the work of clearing my father-in-law's land! For the sake of the common people in the world, I have to contribute my share!"

It must be my old partner who stopped me from wasting time in meaningless places. Then he came up and gave me such a big one

It is a great gift to commit suicide, Li Muzhen is so righteous!

"Remember to take me with you when the time comes. I have to follow you, otherwise you may go to fight somewhere again."

After Li Mu's prompting, Ma Su quickly got rid of his previous misunderstanding and found the direction of committing suicide again. After thanking his old partner for the reminder, Ma Su immediately went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask Zhuge Liang for help.

I just want to lay down the military system, and then immediately set off to Chengdu to clear the land to prevent the nobles from making false reports or concealing reports.

But when Ma Su arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, he found that only Yang Zhun was working. Prime Minister Zhuge, who never leaves his post or asks for leave, is strangely absent from the Prime Minister's Mansion!

This discovery shocked Ma Su, and he quickly looked for Yang Zhun to ask about the situation.

But if something goes wrong, the Prime Minister will suppress him without taking him.

Yang Zhun also answered Ma Su's question honestly. Zhuge Liang didn't have anything urgent to do, but went to the Imperial College to teach part-time.

Because there are a lot of new people in the court, Zhuge Liang no longer monopolizes power. So in his free time, Liu Chan also asked Zhuge Liang to come to the Imperial Academy to teach the princes about Confucian classics.

You know, in addition to being an outstanding politician and military strategist, Zhuge Liang himself was also a great scholar of Confucian classics. Therefore, it is not surprising that Liu Chan decided to ask Zhuge Liang to be his teacher.

"Prime Minister Zhuge personally preached the truth, accepted karma and solved doubts? This blessing is really too great to bear." Ma Di shook his head gently, and then rushed from the prime minister's residence to the palace.

The scale of the palace in Chang'an completely surpasses the palace in Chengdu. Although many places are still dilapidated and unrepaired, the fun parts are enough.

After walking around the palace twice, Ma Su found the location of the Imperial College. Here, dozens of teenagers knelt down and listened to the lectures, while Zhuge Liang sat at the front and taught.

"The journey of a gentleman is to cultivate one's character through tranquility, and to cultivate one's virtue through frugality. Without indifference, there is no clear ambition, and without tranquility, there is no way to achieve great goals..."

Seeing Zhuge Liang busy, Ma Su also stood aside and waited quietly.

Unexpectedly, when he stopped here, all the princes and the accompanying students began to lose focus. Many people peeked at Ma Su while listening to the lecture.

Among them were Li Mu's son Li Mi, Chen Shi's child Chen Shou, and Ma Ping...

Um? Ma Ping is there too?

Ma Su raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes instantly met Ma Ping's. What Ma Su didn't expect was that Ma Ping immediately withdrew his gaze, obviously a little afraid of Ma Su.

Tsk...look what happened.

Soon, Zhuge Liang finished his lecture, and Ma Su saw the opportunity and stepped forward to ask for instructions on his affairs.

Zhuge Liang was not surprised that Ma Su suddenly asked for instructions to go to Yizhou to supervise. This guy is one who gets involved in the excitement, and he had already set his sights on this job during the previous discussion.

But despite this, Ma Su is indeed a more suitable candidate. So Zhuge Liang also approved the request. The only requirement was that Ma Di must first implement the government army system before setting off.

"The Prime Minister is wise!"

"Stop telling me this here, get to work quickly, and don't leave everything to others!"

When Zhuge Liang and Ma Di left the Imperial Academy while discussing, a group of teenagers inside all looked at their backs.

"That is the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty! Such a gentleman!"

"Chen Shou, stop looking, the Prime Minister will not look back at you!"

"Ma Ping, that must be Dad, right? Why don't you go say hello?"

"I do not recognize……"
