Chapter 105
— The Lord of Wuxiang Leaves A Plan In The Silken Bag; The Ruler of Wei Removes The Bronze Statue With The Dew Bowl.
Liu Bei's empress and Wu Yi's sister, at Chengdu as Empress Dowager of Shu. She wails at the news of Zhuge Liang's death, sits in on the council over the duelling memorials, and supplies the decisive argument: 'The First Ruler used to say that Zhuge Liang knew that treachery lurked in the heart of Wei Yan… We should not believe too readily this tale of his that Yang Yi has rebelled. Yang Yi is a scholar and a civil officer, and the late Prime Minister placed him in a position of great responsibility… If we believe this statement, surely Yang Yi will be forced to go over to Wei. Nothing should be done without due meditation.'
