"Never before!"

Xun Yu's eyes widened in surprise, obviously startled by Guo Jia's shocking words. However, he then thought about it again, if only for women, Cai Ji's actions could also afford the words "unprecedented". After all, although Mi Bazi and Lu Pheasant are the heroines, they are burdened by the background of the concubine, and they will inevitably be criticized by good people for taking the world with foxes. On the other hand, Cai Ji, who is also a daughter, raised troops from Qingzhou, fought in the south and the north, and swept in the east and west for nearly ten years, and finally became a hegemon. Even those prejudiced people who shout all day long "Chicken Si Chen, the world is in chaos" have to be in awe of this self-made female prince in the depths of their hearts. Thinking of Cai Ji's amazing appearance over the years, Xun Yu couldn't help but look at it, and said slightly, "Cai Anzhen is indeed unprecedented in the world as a woman. ”

Who knew that Guo Jia not only did not agree, but raised his sword eyebrows and corrected, "If this is wrong, the master of my family will be a man, which is also unprecedented!" ”

Seeing that Guo Jia gave Cai Ji such a high evaluation, Xun Yu was stunned for a while and didn't know how to talk to him. There was even a moment in his mind that there were some ambiguous rumors about Guo Jia and Cai Ji in the market. Of course, these thoughts disappeared in a flash, because Xun Yu believed that Guo Jia would never be stunned. So Xun Yu finally just looked at Guo Jia quietly, waiting for his further explanation.

Facing Xun Yu's questioning eyes, Guo Jia unhurriedly preached, "The master of my family, open a branch to take scholars, give land to the people, and create legislation without managing business; Assess the situation and advocate separation. The vertical and horizontal shut-up is comparable to Su Zhang; There is a way to govern the army, strategize, and crusade against thieves and cover the emperor. Isn't this kind of enlightened lord of literature and martial arts unprecedented? ”

Don't look at Guo Jia praising Cai Ji all the way to the sky in front of Xun Yu, but there is one thing he didn't mention, that is, "Qi Hou is good at mechanical skills, building water wheels, casting artillery, and his wisdom is not inferior to Mo Zhai." However, even if Guo Jia deliberately did not mention Cai Ji's technical attainments in order to keep the artillery secret. Just the three items he listed at this moment seemed to have made Xun Yu nod his head involuntarily. After all, Guo Jia's wording is high-profile. There is nothing wrong with the content. In the eyes of others, Cai Ji did create a series of new laws such as opening a branch and taking scholars, and Juntian giving to the people, and was thus respected by the world as the female middle school pipe. And this time, she used the name of dividing the feudal system to join forces with the princes of all parties to leverage the overall situation of the world. Its influence, as Guo Jia said, is comparable to that of Su Qin and Zhang Yi in the past. As for the military aspect, Cai Ji is certainly weaker than Cao Cao and others, but the Qi army led by her finally defeated Yuan Shao, who established himself as the king, and it is not an exaggeration to say that her contribution covered the Huangfu Song who quelled the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Regardless of gender, male or female, a person who achieves any of the above is enough to go down in history. Not to mention that all three of a dozen are occupied.

However, it is the recognition that Cai Ji has extraordinary talent. Xun Yucai was even more distressed by the current situation, and then sighed angrily, "Qi Hou is a genius of the heavens, if he piously assists the Han family to sweep the Quartet, and returns the world to peace, he will definitely be able to leave a name in the history of Yi Yin and Zhou Gongqing." How can you divide the territory and divide the land for your own selfishness, and trap the world in the suffering of the Warring States! ”

As a strategist born in the Central Plains, Guo Jia has the same feelings of great unity as Xun Yu. But he didn't agree with Xun Yu's first half of the statement. Seeing Guo Jia quietly open his mouth and ask, "According to Wen Ruo's opinion." When today's son can accommodate Yiyin and Zhou Gonghu? ”

Guo Jia's rhetorical question can be described as hitting the nail on the head, not every courtier can become Yi Yin and Zhou Gong, and not every king has the mind of Shang Tang and Zhou Wu. Of course, Xun Yu knew that with Liu Xie's bearing, he could not control Cao Cao, Cai Jina and other talented courtiers. In fact, Mo said that Shang Tang, Zhou Wu, and Liu Xie couldn't even catch up with Emperor Xuan Liu Xun. At least Emperor Xuan Liu Xun faced the arrogance of the Huo family, killing his wife and children, and he was still able to be low and small, and he could not bear until Huo Guang passed away, and then he started to eradicate the Huo family.

However, Liu Xie is not a problem in Xun Yu's eyes. The reason why Yi Yin, Zhou Gong, and Huo Guang are put together is that in addition to the fact that they are all ministers of power, but also because they have all done one thing, that is, they are independent "doing things". Since someone is not suitable for the dragon seat, then the transducer lives in it. At least that can keep the pattern of the great unification of the Han family.

Once he made up his mind, a cold light quickly flashed in Xun Yu's eyes, and he immediately lowered his voice and said to Guo Jiati, "When today's son is cowardly and incompetent, and does not distinguish between the virtuous and the foolish, causing the world to be divided, the Han family will fall." If not, the Marquis of Qi and the Duke of Cao will follow Yi Huo's example, and choose another clan to support him as the emperor! Xun Yu paused when he said this, and saw that Guo Jia lowered his head and pondered and did not say anything, and hit the railway while it was hot, "As for Sun Ce, Liu Bei and others, you can use the name of dividing the seal to introduce these two fangs into the Beijing Division, and catch them all!" ”

It is true that Xun Yu depicted an attractive prospect for Guo Jia in vivid language, but at this time, Guo Jia just raised his head and asked indifferently, "Wen Ruo still remembers the dispute between Sanhuo and Sanhuo?" ”

The "Sang" in the Sanghuo dispute mentioned by Guo Jia is Sanghong Yang, and "Huo" is Huo Guang. It is said that before his death, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty appointed Huo Guang, Jin Riyan, Shangguan Ji, and Sang Hongyang as auxiliary ministers to assist the then eight-year-old Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty. Sang Hongyang was born in a wealthy merchant family in Luoyang, and his family background is naturally not as noble as Huo Guang, Jin Riyan, and Shangguan Ji. But his personal ability is extremely strong, and he can be called a genius. With the strong support of Emperor Wu, Sang Hongyang successively implemented economic policies such as calculation, sue, salt and iron official camps, equal loss, leveling, currency reform, and wine, and at the same time organized 600,000 people to garrison the border to defend against the Xiongnu. However, Sang Hongyang was eventually implicated and killed due to a disagreement with Huo Guang's political opinions, and was involved in the rebellion of Liu Dan, the king of Yan, and Shangguan Ji's father and son.

The battle between Sang Hongyang and Huo Guang proves that talented ministers and emperors are creatures that cannot accommodate two tigers in one mountain. Because if the ministers want to implement the new policy and realize their ambitions, they must take over the power in one body, and no other noise will be allowed. It is no wonder that as soon as Guo Jia mentioned the "Sanhuo dispute", Xun Yu, who was still talking a moment ago, immediately fell silent. In fact, Cai Ji once said as early as when he entered Beijing in the past, "This mansion has the talent of Guan Zhong, but I don't know that there is a style of Baozi." At that time, Xun Yu just felt that Cai Ji was too arrogant, but now looking back, it seems that the girl does have arrogant capital.

He was unwilling to regard himself as the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period, and he was unwilling to join hands with Cao Cao as a minister to assist the Han Emperor. There is obviously only one answer left.

After some careful consideration, Xun Yu finally opened his mouth with difficulty and asked, "Feng Xiao is determined to assist the Cai family in conquering the country?" ”

Facing Xun Yu's heart-wrenching question. Guo Jiaxin picked up a chess piece from the chessboard and said, "After waiting for a hundred years, it will also be a model for future generations, so what if you find another way to create an unprecedented system?" ”

Guo Jia's reply certainly made Xun Yu realize that he was destined not to convince his old friend tonight. However, the sentence "After waiting for more than a hundred years, he will also be a model for future generations" inadvertently aroused Xun Yu's fighting spirit in the depths of his heart that was almost wiped out.

Early the next morning, Xun Yu uncharacteristically personally escorted Guo Jia and Lu Su into the palace to face the saint. thus quelling the rumors that he opposed the relocation of the capital by the Son of Heaven. And Liu Xie, who was in the inner court, knew that he was almost about to be pulled off the dragon seat. At this time, he seemed to be deeply immersed in the joy of being about to get out of the tiger's mouth. Facing Guo Jia and Lu Su, who represented Cai Ji and Sun Ce in Beijing. Liu Xie, who was in the joy of Longyan Dayue, opened Chrysostom on the spot and rewarded the two of them with a jade ruyi each, in recognition of the two people's hearts for the Han family. It's just that due to the limited financial resources of the royal family, this imperial gift can only be temporarily sponsored by the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Cao Ang, who is anxious to save his father, cares about this thing outside his body. After supporting Liu Xie, he set up a banquet in the Prime Minister's Mansion that night to catch the wind for Guo Jia and Lu Su. Guo Jia was originally born in Yingchuan, and during the banquet, he naturally pushed the cup and changed the cup with the former Ruying, like a fish in water. Even Lu Su from Jiangdong is also frank and bold. Punch lines. Do not fall into the name of Chushi.

However, these happy scenes are only the appearance, as the wine has passed three rounds and the food has passed five flavors, Cao Ang finally couldn't help but lean over and ask Guo Jia, "Pei County and Nanjun are thousands of miles apart, will it be too late for Qi Hou and Wu Hou to go south in October?" ”

As soon as Cao Ang's words came out, Cao Ying's civil and military forces who accompanied him pricked up their ears one after another. To put it bluntly, the reason why Cao Ang responded to Cai Ji's initiative to let the Son of Heaven out of the palace and even move the capital was to rescue Cao Cao, who was trapped in Dangyang. If Cai Ji and Sun Ce's coalition forces can't arrive in Jingzhou in time. Let Liu Bei break through Dangyang and put Cao Cao to death, wouldn't that be a waste of all his efforts. After all, according to the usual pace of marching. It often takes two months to get from Pei to Nan.

At this time, under the gaze of everyone, I saw Guo Jia holding a wine cup, and smiled at Cao Ang with a blurred look, "Don't worry about Jinwu, although Peijun and Nanjun are thousands of miles apart, but with the footsteps of Youzhou, Brother Ling must have arrived in Jingzhou now." ”

It turned out that after Cai Ji reached an alliance with Sun Ce in Fengxize that day, she sent Guo Jia and Lu Su into Beijing to face the saint on the one hand, and on the other hand, Cao Pi and Sun Quan led a team of assault cavalry to the south to get in touch with Cao Ren in Nanjun. The troopers consisted of 300 men, each with two horses nailed to their horses, and rode in turn. Along the way, Cao Pi's identity as the son of the Cao family allowed this coalition army to move unimpeded within the territory of Cao's army, while Sun Quan knew the shortcuts and waterways between Jingyang and Yang. After such a journey day and night, Cao Pi and Sun Quan finally crossed the Han River at the end of October of the eighth year of Jian'an and arrived at the camp of Cao's army at Changbanpo.

"It is worthy of being a Youzhou Raider, and it arrived in Nanjun from Pei County in October." Sun Quan, who was waiting outside the Cao camp, looked at the battle flag with the word "Cao" waving in the wind opposite, and couldn't help but praise the war horse under his crotch. But when he thought that after the task was completed, these war horses from Youzhou would be returned to the Qi army, he was faintly reluctant.

Cao Pi saw the light of greed in Sun Quan's eyes, and knew that the other party must have started the idea of fighting the war horses of the Qi army. However, thinking that he still needed to use the power of the Sun brothers to put pressure on Liu Bei to rescue his father, he had to suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart, and bowed his hand to Sun Quan to do a small bow and said, "Chibi lost his father in the first battle, so Cao Ying has a deep prejudice against your department, if there is any rudeness later, please forgive Zhongmou." ”

Sun Quan, who came back to his senses, pretended to pat Cao Pi on the shoulder and laughed, "It's okay, it's okay, Yu Ji was ordered to go south, and he should focus on the overall situation." ”

And just when Sun Quan's energetic laughter filled the sky, the closed suspension bridge of Cao Ying on the opposite side was finally put down, and I saw a bearded general in fresh clothes and angry armor leaping out of his horse, it was Cao Ren, the general of Zhengnan. At the same time, he was followed by Yilang Sima Lang and the two brothers Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi.

"Second brother!" "Second brother!"

Seeing Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi, who had not seen each other for a long time, both cheered and flew off the horse, all the way to himself, Cao Pi suddenly felt a sour nose, turned over and dismounted, and quickly stepped forward to hold the two younger brothers in his arms. At the same time, the love that had been suppressed for three years also came out with tears of joy.

Cao Ren looked at the three brothers of the Cao family hugging and crying in front of the gate, and his mood was also mixed. On the one hand, the appearance of Cao Pi means that Cai Ji will come to Cao's aid. On the other hand, according to Cao Ren's understanding of Cao Cao, the prime minister of his family may not be willing to accept Cai Anzhen's "life-saving grace". Because according to Kong Rong and others, the eldest prince was at the cost of giving up the Son of Heaven this time in exchange for Cai Ji's help.

Taking advantage of Cao Renwu's self-emotion, the Cao family brothers hugged their heads and recognized each other, but Sima Lang walked straight to Sun Quan and bowed, "Dare to ask if this Lang Jun is an envoy of Wu?" ”

Sun Quan saw that Sima Lang was slender and extraordinary, so he quickly restrained his thoughts about watching the excitement, dismounted and saluted, "Sun Quan, the younger brother of the Marquis of Wu, is a gentleman, I don't know what to call Mr." ”

"It turned out to be Zhongmou's son. Disrespectful, disrespectful. In Xia Yilang Sima Lang, on the order of the Son of Heaven, the dispute between Cao and Liu was stopped in the south. Sima Lang politely reported to his home, and looked at Sun Quan quietly. It is said that long before leaving Beijing, Sima Lang had learned from Wu Shuo that Cai Ji and Sun Ce had formed an alliance to jointly propose that "the Son of Heaven will move the capital and the princes will be divided". But at that time, he was always suspicious of Wu Shuo's family's words. It wasn't until he saw the Qi-Wu coalition led by Cao Pi and Sun Quan at this moment that Sima Lang believed that the Cai and Sun families had indeed formed an alliance as Wu Shuo said, and at the same time, he was secretly glad that he had bet on the right treasure this time.

On the other side, Sun Quan heard that Sima Lang was an envoy of the Son of Heaven, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, thinking that the Son of Heaven had decreed that he would live quickly, if Cao Cao had already gotten out of trouble, wouldn't the eldest brother and the Marquis of Qi come for nothing. Thinking of this, Sun Quan tentatively asked Sima Lang, "Since Yilang has gone south with the holy decree, presumably Prime Minister Cao Cheng has already escaped from the predicament?" ”

As soon as Sun Quan's words came out, Cao Pi also raised his head and asked Cao Ren, "Uncle Zixiao, where is my father now?" ”

Faced with Sun Quan and Cao Pi's repeated questions, Sima Lang and Cao Ren exchanged glances with a little embarrassment, and then sighed helplessly and said, "Don't hide it from the two sons, the prime minister has not yet been extricated from his predicament." ”

Hearing that Cao Cao was still trapped in Dangyang City, Cao Pi immediately opened his eyes angrily and said, "Liu Bei dares to resist the decree and disrespect!" ”

"If you don't resist the will and don't respect it, you won't reply." Sima Lang reluctantly corrected. In fact, Liu Bei was polite to Kong Rong and Sima Lang, who were the envoys of the Son of Heaven, but he always delayed the holy decree they brought.

Just as everyone was mentioning Liu Bei, they suddenly saw a small colonel trotting from Yuanmen to Cao Ren and report, "General Yu, Liu Ying has sent an envoy to visit." (To be continued......)
