My First Lesson to Jiang Wei: Zhuge Liang Was Wrong

A Peking University professor transmigrates into the role of Jiang Wei's strategist. I tell him, “Stop fighting. You can't win.” He says, “Sir, I'll do as you say.” Later, Liu Shan takes my hand and says, “Teacher Lin, I've been pretending to be a fool for forty-two years, waiting for you.” On the day I leave, Jiang Wei stands by the city gate, like a tree. Back in the modern world, my phone rings. A voice on the other end says, “Lin Mu, I've been waiting for you for a long time.”
