Guo Jia hesitated slightly, and then said to Cao Cao: "Does the lord still remember the prince?" ”

Cao Cao smiled: "Fengxiao is so strange today, ask some inexplicable words, how can I not remember the dog?" ”

Guo Jia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Cao Cao fortunately remembered his eldest son Cao Ang, so there was hope.

At this time, I saw Cao Cao clapping his hands into the house, and after a while, Li Shi walked out of the inner room, and Cao Cao said to her: "Go, bring Zixiu here." ”

Li smiled and nodded, then returned to the house.

After giving the order to Li, Cao Cao and Guo Jia continued to drink.

However, at this time, Guo Jia had no intention of drinking, and while he was absent-mindedly drinking with Cao Cao, he wondered if Cao Cao's son was the person he knew.

Guo Jia's doubts didn't last long, and after a while, Li Shi walked out of the inner room again, but this time, there was an extra child behind her.

Guo Jia hurriedly looked at the child, and saw that the child was about five or six years old, well-behaved and cute, but it was obviously not the Cao Ang he knew, although Cao Cao called him Zixiu, the word was the same as Cao Ang, but in addition, whether it was age or appearance, they were too different.

Seeing that it was not Cao Ang, Guo Jia's heart immediately cooled half, needless to say, this must be another gluttonous ghost, although he kept saying that he would let Guo Jia see Cao Cao, but he still moved his hands and feet behind his back, the things here are plausible, three points are true, but seven points are false, Cao Cao recognized Guo Jia at a glance, and remembered the past things clearly, but the worst thing is that these memories are not far from reality, not to mention how Cao Cao regarded Guo Jia as his brother, you must know that among Cao Jun, Only a few important ministers of the Xiahou clan can be called brothers and sisters with Cao Cao, that is, the two brothers Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan, as well as the two brothers Cao Ren and Cao Hong of Cao Cao's own clan, and the rest of the people, even if they are members of the same two relatives, no one is qualified to call Cao Cao brothers.

Such a thing that exceeds the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, in the short term, may not feel like a big deal, and it can also bring in the closeness between subordinates, but if you plan from a long-term perspective, things are not so simple.

When Cao Cao called on the heroes of the world to crusade against Dong Zhuo, the first to respond to this hero were the Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan brothers of the Xiahou family.

It is said that Cao Cao's father Cao Song's original surname was Xiahou, and later became the adopted son of the eunuch Cao Teng, and after Cao Teng's death, Cao Song inherited Cao Teng's marquis.

Therefore, Cao Cao's family and the Xiahou clan are related by blood, so when Cao Cao raised his troops, the two brothers first defected to Cao Cao with the family soldiers in the clan, and then Cao Ren and Cao Hong also brought the soldiers of the Cao clan to support Cao Cao, with their support, Cao Cao's team gradually grew, it can be said that the initial support of the two of them for Cao Cao was crucial, and not only that, in the subsequent campaign, the generals of the two families were always desperate and charged forward, Even when Cao Cao was in danger, it was they who saved Cao Cao.

Therefore, whether it was in the past or now, the importance of these two families to Cao Cao is self-evident, but even so, Guo Jia and Xun Yu have always advocated that Cao Cao should be cautious about the relationship between relatives in the army, although they gave Cao Cao great help and support, but if in the long run, once Cao Cao's power grows, the weight of these two families in Cao's army will become more and more huge, and at that time, it will inevitably be that some people will be pampered and arrogant, openly disobeying laws and order, However, because of the special relationship between their status, the law enforcers will not be able to adapt, so that the law will be useless, and the law will not be binding and prestigious, then no one will obey the law in the future, or be dissatisfied with the law in favor of relatives, either way, it will be a serious danger of breaking the embankment.

Therefore, Guo Jia attaches great importance to the distinction between monarchs and ministers, and together with Xun Yu, they are trying to restrain Cao Cao's relatives from becoming bigger in the army, for this reason, they do not hesitate to offend many of Cao Cao's cronies and generals, including Cao Ren and Cao Hong, who originally followed Cao Cao and made countless contributions to the army.

Of course, Cao Cao knew Guo Jia's position, so it was impossible for him to do such a thing that violated common sense, and the only thing that could be explained was that his memory must be confused.

And then there is this pair of mother and son of unknown origin, Li and Zi Xiu, which is the biggest problem for Guo Jia.

Not to mention where this Li family came from and how he met Cao Cao, let's just say that this is a child with the same word as Cao Ang, but completely different from Cao Ang, when was he born by Cao Cao?

It has only been more than a month since Cao Cao lost his mind and was controlled, even if he was pregnant for ten months and popped out all of a sudden, it would be impossible for him to grow to five or six years old so quickly, right?

There is only one possibility, that is, in order to trap Cao Cao here, he completely lost his ambition, so he disturbed his memory, and at the same time conjured up a false family, so that Cao Cao was completely immersed in the joy of family, forgetting his real family and companions, and consuming his lofty ambitions and ideals, becoming a person who lived completely in illusion.

Guo Jia couldn't sit still any longer, he suddenly stood up and said loudly to Cao Cao: "Wake up, lord, they are not your family!" ”

Cao Cao looked stunned, but still asked with a smile: "Fengxiao, what's wrong with you?" ”

Guo Jia angrily pointed at these two people and said, "Lord, they are not your family, your real family is now waiting for you to go back in Puyang City!" ”

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Fengxiao, you are really joking, when did I have a family in Puyang City?" I think you're drunk! ”

Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "Lord, Guo Jia is not drunk, now it is you who are drunk and unconscious, during your absence, Cao Jun has been chaotic, turning the whole of Xuzhou into a hell on earth, with corpses all over the field and rivers of blood!" ”

Cao Cao's smile gradually disappeared, and he said to Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, I think you are really drunk." ”

Guo Jia asked, "Does the lord still remember Xi Zhicai?" ”

Cao Cao shook his head.

Guo Jia asked again: "Does the lord still remember Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo?" ”

Cao Cao's face was a little displeased, and he shook his head again.

At this time, Guo Jia said loudly: "Since the lord doesn't remember them, how can he recognize me Guo Fengxiao?" ”

Guo Jia said this because he was introduced by these two people, so he hoped to evoke Cao Cao's memory.
