At this time, the person who spoke behind Man Pet was one of the young people recruited by Man Pet from his hometown. In the final analysis, people are selfish animals, and this young man's ability is neither the best nor the worst, and the reason why he can stay by his side all the time is because he is Manning, the eldest son of Man's favored nephew and the eldest brother of Man's favor.

"Alas......!" Man Ning listened to his nephew's question, sighed, and explained, "Ning'er, you are extremely naïve to ask these two questions1

First, this wine shop is located in the most prosperous downtown of Xudu.

If the lord is traveling, he will definitely see this place at first sight, since the lord himself issued a ban on alcohol, then, with the temper of the lord on the fair day, will he let this wine shop continue to open here so blatantly? In that case, how dare I meddle in the affairs of this place with a small Xu Ling?

Second, you don't see everything, do you really think that the only person who enters the drink is Cao Hong, a dignitary?

No matter how stupid Cao Hong is, after the previous incident, he will definitely restrain himself, even if he really can't help but want to drink, can he drink it in his own home? Why do you have to be in the middle of nowhere? I know very well that Cao Hong is still haunted by what happened last time, so didn't you kid think that this was a trap he set, and he dared to be so blatant in getting drunk and making trouble in the downtown early in the morning, maybe just waiting for me to come forward to arrest him.

In this way, the lesson left for you today is to punish you for three days to stay outside this tavern, to find out the identity of those who have entered the tavern, and to find out who the owner of this tavern is, but not to use force or take advantage of your previous identity. Do you understand? ”

In the end, Man Pet assigned Man Ning a task.

"No!" After listening to his uncle's explanation, Man Ning immediately bowed down and answered, and then patted his head with some annoyance.

Drunk and making trouble in broad daylight, of course Cao Hong did it on purpose!

He thinks that he has never offended Man Favor, and he is naturally not the only one who violates the law in Xu Duli, but for no reason, Man Pet only used him to make the 'chicken' that kills chickens and sets an example for monkeys, how can people not be annoyed?

It's just that I didn't expect that Man Zhong was not a cool official with a straight intestine, but a person who was quite shrewd and very good at speculating on the monarch's thoughts, how could he fall for Cao Hong's scheme so easily?

Moreover, Man Pet did not tell his nephew who the owner of this wine shop was, just because he wanted to let his nephew go through some more tribulations.

After a lot of things, a lot of wisdom grows, and people who are not so smart will have to go through some more hardships before they can grow up quickly.

In fact, it was not all because he saw Cao Hong's plan that he didn't dare to touch Cao Hong and this wine shop. Because, the owner of this wine shop is Guo Jia.

Guo Jia is not only one of the most trusted advisors around Cao Cao, but also the person in charge of the secret agents around Cao Cao.

Guo Jia's ability to grasp the minds of all kinds of princes is certainly a reflection of his talent, personal ability and talent, but it also has a lot to do with his position.

It is precisely because he thinks that Guo Jia has mastered the secret agent system of the Cao army and can grasp the situation of various princes in the first time, so that he can make a reasonable judgment.

And this wine shop is a very important link in Cao Jun's secret agent system.

In addition to the dignitaries and dignitaries in Xudu, there are many scholars who gather in Xudu from all over the world. As soon as people drink alcohol, most of them will not be able to control their mouths, from the mouths of these people, Guo Jia can find out some news brought by these scholars from their respective hometowns, and at the same time, he can also infer from the words of the scholars that the political tendencies of these scholars.

At present, there are a lot of scholars gathered in Xudu, but not all of them come to seek officials.

This is not surprising, Guo Jia himself said that good birds choose trees to perch, and good ministers choose their masters. Among the princes of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao is definitely not the only one who really has the ability to seize the world.

Hebei Yuan Shao is the most powerful, Jiangdong Sun Ce is in the south of the Yangtze River, once he completely integrates the Huiji County and Yuzhang County that he just captured, his power is indeed like the latest issue of the 'Han Fierce General Ranking' said, Sun Ce already has the ability to seize the world, and its strength has even surpassed Cao Cao, who holds the bargaining chip of Emperor Han Xian.

This is something that many people don't expect.

Sun Ce raised his army very late, in the second year of Xingping, just over a year earlier than Jin Jue, but his rise was too fast.

At this time, Guo Jia really had to be on the second floor of this wine shop, quietly listening to every move under the restaurant, and the person sitting next to him was Xun You.

Xun Yu is older than Xun Yu, but he is a generation younger, so except for official and family affairs, the two have almost no contact in private. On the contrary, Xun You and Guo Jia have a good relationship in private.

Guo Jia was recommended to Cao Cao by Xun Yu, but since the 'Great Han Military Division Ranking' concocted by Jin Jue came out, although Cao Cao did not say it explicitly, he would be more or less suspicious of Xun Yu in his heart.

Xun Yu knows this, and Guo Jia and Xun You, who are good at speculating on people's hearts, also see it.

However, this is a difficult problem in Xun Yu's own heart, except for himself, no one can help him, he can only rely on his own choice.

"Fengxiao, what is the intention of that kid to throw out the fierce general ranking at this time. Isn't he good friends with Liu Bei? Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are not too famous generals, and he wrote about the shortcomings of the two in the rankings, which is definitely not deliberately misleading us. But it is precisely because of this that it is even more difficult to guess what is in his heart? Xun You asked while looking at the bustling crowd downstairs, slowly sipping the wine in the cup.

"According to my guess, that kid deliberately wrote this, I'm afraid he was warning Liu Bei. It is said in the world that Liu Bei and the second general are like brothers, with Liu Bei's ability, will he not know the shortcomings of the second general? However, Liu Bei is not only a good face, but also attaches great importance to affection, and when appointing generals, he will definitely give the first choice to the second general. Therefore, that kid is probably alerting Liu Bei and the second general himself.

As for mentioning others, I'm afraid it's more for the sake of weakening Yuan Shao. Now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that although the lord and Yuan Shao have not turned against each other yet, they are both rushing for time. Whoever destroys their worst enemy first will be able to take the initiative in the next stage. Guo Jia didn't drink, and talked eloquently.
