It seems like Kongming is on his way out, but the man's never done anything quietly, so why would he die without making a fuss? The propaganda is pretty unsubtle this week as our illustrious author finds ways to praise every single one of Kongming's actions, up to and including his running away with his tail between his legs. The wooden bulls and shit were pretty cool, though.
